Ical sync from iPhone to Macbook Pro

Using my MacBook Pro with Lion OS, I can create an event that shows up on my phone, but not the reverse. I can add an appointment on my iphone 4g (IOS 5), but it doesnt show up on my iCal on my computer. I have signed up for the iCloud. Does anyone know what is wrong?

HT204144 File transfer using Airdrop from iphone to Macbook Pro

File transfer using airdrop form Macbook Pro to iphone is working...but from iphone to Macbook Pro is not working, Why?

Hi Brok25;
Thanks for the question. The resource below explains the specs and settings that are needed for AirDrop. Check the settings and look to see if your MacBook Pro is listed.
Mac Basics: AirDrop lets you send files from your Mac to nearby Macs and iOS devices - Apple Support
http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT203106
Sending files to and from an older Mac
If a Mac you're using with AirDrop was manufactured before 2012, you can send and receive files with other Mac computers.
On the sending Mac, click "Don't see who you're looking for" in the AirDrop window.
Select the option to "Search for an Older Mac."
On the receiving Mac, open a new Finder window and click AirDrop in the sidebar.
Tips for sending files
Make sure Wi-Fi and Bluetooth are enabled on your Mac and your iOS device. Although you don't have to connect to a specific network, Wi-Fi needs to be on to send and receive files using AirDrop.
Move your devices closer together. AirDrop is designed to work within a range of approximately 30 feet (9 meters). If you need to send a file to someone farther away, consider using File Sharing, iCloud, or email instead.
If you're using a firewall on your Mac, you won't be able to receive AirDrop files if you have enabled "Block all incoming connections" in the Security & Privacy pane of System Preferences.
Make sure your devices meet system requirements for AirDrop.
System Requirements
To see if your Mac works with AirDrop, make sure you’re in the Finder by clicking the desktop (the background area of your screen), or by clicking the Finder icon in the Dock. Then, check to see if AirDrop is listed as an option in the Go menu. If you don't see AirDrop listed, your Mac doesn't support this feature.
In order to transfer files between a Mac and and an iPhone, iPad or iPod touch
your iOS device needs to include a lightning connector
your iOS device needs iOS 7 or later installed
your Mac needs to be a 2012 or later model with OS X Yosemite installed
Your Mac and iOS device both need bluetooth and Wi-Fi turned on. You do not have to be connected to a specific Wi-Fi network.
To transfer files between two Mac computers, you need the Mac models listed below with Wi-Fi turned on and OS X Lion or later installed.
MacBook Pro (Late 2008 or newer)*
MacBook Air (Late 2010 or newer)
MacBook (Late 2008 or newer)*
iMac (Early 2009 or newer)
Mac Mini (Mid 2010 or newer)
Mac Pro (Early 2009 with AirPort Extreme card, or Mid 2010)
*The MacBook Pro (17-Inch Late 2008) and the white MacBook (Late 2008) do not support AirDrop.
For help identifying your Mac, choose About This Mac from the Apple menu. You can refer to the Apple Support website to find out if your iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch includes a lightning connector.
Cheers,
- Judy

Lost iCal data after attempt to use iCloud...possible to sync from iPhone to Macbook?

I attempted to enable iCloud on my MacBook Pro, and after seeing that it was deleting all of the data on my iCal, I realized that it wiped out all of the data on my iCal . I stopped the iCloud sync quickly after.
However, my iPhone 4 has a recently synced copy of all the data, and I was wondering if anyone knew of a way to transfer the events on my iPhone to my Macbook?
I am running OSX Mountain Lion 10.8.2.
Thank you, any help is much appreciated!

I believe sync is working. I think IOS 6.1.2 caused some new attribute in the event record that Calendar doesn't recognize.
I do not use iCloud (had the same problem with multiple duplicate events which took hours to fix) for calendars or contacts. I sync wirelessly with my MacBook Pro once or twice a day: very painless.
Since I updated my iPhone to IOS 6.1.2, events created on the iPhone do not show up in Calendar. Events created in Calendar do show up on the iPhone.
I also have an iPad which I updated to IOS 6.1.2 over the weekend.
If I create an event on the iPhone, then sync with the Mac, then sync the iPad, the event shows up on the iPad. The only place the event could have come from is the Mac. Calendar still does not show the event.
My guess is that there will be a Calendar update soon. I hope so. It was driving me nuts.

Sync information from Iphone to Macbook Pro?

Recently my Macbook pro was stolen from me and I just recently got a new one. My Iphone has all of my song's and what not's on it and I want to transfer them to m new Macbook. I know if I plug in my Iphone to my Macbook and it sync's it, I will lose everything. I don't want that, I want to sync all my song's from my phone to my laptop. Can anyone help me? Thank you.

The sync process for iTunes content is a one way transfer process only, and the same for photos transferred from your computer via the iTunes sync/transfer process.
Your iTunes library on your computer should be included with your computer's backup along with all other important data - the iTunes named folder located in your Music folder.
iTunes includes an option to transfer iTunes content that was purchased/downloaded from the iTunes store from an iPod or iPhone, but this is for iTunes content that was purchased/downloaded from the iTunes store only.
First you need to authorize your new computer with your iTunes account with iTunes. With your iPhone connected and without syncing, at the iTunes menu bar go to File and select Transfer Purchases From - the name of your iPhone.
Before syncing contacts with the Address Book and calendar events with iCal, enter one contact in the Address Book and one calendar event in iCal on your Mac. This will provide a merge prompt with the first sync for this data, which you want to select.

How do i Sync Notes from iPhone to MacBook Pro?

In Lion I connected my iPhone to my MacBook Pro and then it auto sync Notes to my e-mail account.
Now after I got Mountain Lion it's not auto sync of Notes anymore and I wonder what I must do to achieve this?
What's on Notes today are old notes that I had before I'v got the Mountain Lion.
I'm not excited to go via iCloud, but if there is another detour I have to bite the sour apple.

If you dont mind me asking, why dont you wnt to do this with iCloud (it couldnt be any easier) -System preferences/icloud/ check Notes.

ICal sync from iPhone 3G no longer works with both MacBooks?

Hi Group:
I've got an iPhone 3G, a previous gen MBP and a white MB, all running the latest software updates. For the past several months I have been able to enter iCal events on my MBP, sync to the iPhone using iTunes, and then sync the iPhone to the MB. For some reason I can't guess, that no longer works, and iCal events are not being transferred from the iPhone to my MB iCal app. Did this happen with the iPhone 3.0 software update (the timing seems about right)? I called Apple Care last night and they said only a .Me account would return that functionality, but denied this had anything to do with the iPhone 3.0 update. In fact, the rep said it never should have worked in the first place.
FWIW, here's the error messasge iTunes generates:
"iTunes could not sync calendar events to the iPhone because an error occurred while sending data from the iPhone."
That's the exact wording, and it doesn't really make perfect sense, either. So, is there a workaround for this, or a third-party app, perhaps? Did Apple make this change just to sell more .Me accounts? Finally, is there maybe an automated way to sync the iCal events between the MBP and MB across my Time Capsule network? Thanks in advance for any ideas.
Dean

****, that was a brilliant solution. To be clear, what was happening is that I could no longer sync calendars from the iPhone to the MB, but never lost that ability on the MBP. I would not have guessed your solution, as I've never even opened the iSync app, and had no idea it was in any way involved. Thanks, and I wonder if there's some way Apple could add this solution to their database for the Apple Care reps?

ICal events won't sync from iPad to MacBook Pro

When adding events to iCal via iPad or iPad2 the events will not sync via Cloud to iCal on my MacBook Pro. However, when adding events via the MacBook Pro they appear on both the iPad and iPad 2. Any thoughts? Thanks.

Hi,
Something like this happened to me before.
Go to the system preferences app to see if iCloud or another account is syncing your calendar. Also do the same thig on the iPad(s). Make sure that the same account (ex: iCloud vs. yahoo) is syncing the calendars on all of the devices.
If that doesn't work go to the"calendars" button o. The top left coner of the iPad screen. Check the calendar the is syncing the calendar on all the devices.

Triangulating iCal sync from iPhone to OS 10.6.8 MacBook (no iCloud)

If I sync my iPhone calendar to iCloud, then connect my iPhone to Macbook (OS 10.6.8) via USB, why don't the calendars sync? That is, why wouldn't the calendar data on my iPhone "upload" to my MacBook via USB?

How do I reverse sync from 4s to MacBook Pro?

So I got nearly 200 songs, not much.
So I wanna sync them from my phone, which is a 4S, to my brand new MacBook Pro (I got it last night xD).
Problem is, about 160 of them are not iTunes purchased, they were downloaded from YouTube to my desktop, and well yea. I tried Sepuni or something like that, but it wouldn't transfer everything in playlist forms. I am very OCDish on my music. I keep it very organized, and I wanna keep it that way, and it took me about and hour and half to rename all the files and move them into folders in my Music folders, and double the time for iTunes. *sigh*
So basically, how do I get all my music onto my Mac the way it's organized on my phone without paying for anything?

Easy. You copy the whole iTunes folder from the computer with which you previously synced to the new computer, replacing the empty iTunes folder there, then start iTunes. Otherwise you may well be out of luck, and that goes double if you expect these utilities to be free on the Mac platform. Oh, you can export the playlists from the iOS device, but that's just the text listing, not a complete package of playlist and media.
Some of the information below has subsequently appeared in a document by turingtest2: Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991
Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was planned with you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. Syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchases which can be transferred to a computer.
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only purchases from iTunes Store
For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software. Examples (check the web for others; this is not an exhaustive listing, nor do I have any idea if they are any good):
