ICloud and Syncing Issues (Couldn't find in other threads)

I have been reading through a ton of threads asking similar questions, but have not found one exactly like mine so I am hoping for some insight here. First off we have an iMac, 2 macbooks, two iPhones, an iPod Touch, and several other iPods too. We have switched to iCloud.
In my family we have a joint account and two individual accounts.  I use my individual account for everything (iTunes, Cals, Contacts,...) and my husband has a .yahoo.com account he uses for iTunes and then he uses his individual account for everything else (Cals, Contacts,...).  Several things we want to accomplish and have been trying to without total luck:
1: Enjoy the same music, apps, tv shows... on ONE iTunes account, BUT be able to sync our iPhones & iPods to our own tastes
2. We want to share an address book over all of our accounts. How can we make them all the same? I don't think I can sync different things to different accounts like contacts using joint email and then email using individual account IDs and iTunes with yet another? So CONFUSING!
3. I also use a PC (blah) at work and use Outlook for email, calendar and contacts. I would like to import a "work" contact list into the address book that my husand doesn't have to look at since it ill mean nothing to him.
4. I use google calendar and would like to have it sync to iCal and Outlook without creating a million duplicate events.
We have different IDs, which I have learned that we will not be able to merge IDs due to big music companies, but we want some fluidity between our accounts which is good for them, but bad for families.
Anyway I know this is a lot of questons, but I am hoping for some insight.
Also I thought iTunes matches was supposed to release at the end of October????

Hi, here is how to remove it by yourself...

Script that I create which, will help you remove it ..... (Let me know using the contact at that site.)

What is does.
Depending on the version it just creates a bunch of random fake notification and claims your infected. If you keep getting it then most likely you have Allow popups and "Open Safe files" in safari on. The only damage is if you give the criminals that created it your Credit Card.
It is changing so it depend on the version but these two links should help.

  • Belatedly upgraded to iTunes 11; iCloud and syncing issues with iPod

    There are now a bunch of tracks in my library listed as iCloud tracks; confusingly, some are duplicates of other tracks, and some are not. Also, with no other change than the iTunes upgrade, it's telling me that I'm way over the limit and can't sync my library to my iPod. I'm sure this is simple but I can't figure it out. Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.

    diesel vdub, i use 11.1.1
    solved the issue today. first sync with itunes, so all the stiff you bought on the mobile will be backuped.
    1. uncheck sync music in itunes and sync. all the music will be erased from mobile device
    2. check music player on the mobile device. just the unwanted songs will still be there
    3. go on the iphone to settings, general, usage, music player. there is just a few mb from the remaining unwanted songs. swipeleft and erase the content. switch iphone off and on again
    4. repeat step 2. there will be no data. otherwise repeat step 3
    5. check sync music in itunes and sync. all the music will be back again but not the unwanted songs.

  • HT1338 Help with needing to be able to set up icloud and sync itunes with iphone 4s

    Can and do I need to download OS X Mountain lion to support me to be able to use Icloud for my mac and iphone 4s and to sync other stuff up to it? I currently am running on a Mac OS X 10.6.7 wtih 4GB and it says I need 10.6.8 to to icloud and sync my itunes to my phone.  What do you suggest? Is it possible to put OS X Mountain lion on my computer with its current state?

    As your Mac should run Snow Leopard provided it has at least 1GB memory, that would be a good deal easier and very much cheaper than trying to find a 10.5 install disc.
    Snow Leopard costs $30 approx from the online Apple store (£26 if you're in UK)
    You'll need to update Tiger to 10.4.11 with the combo installer first (unless you're just erasing the disc and starting fresh) You can then update SL from 10.6.3 to 10.6.8 with its combo installer.
    For comparison, 10.5 Leopard is currently running about $130 from Apple (if still available) and more on Amazon etc.
    This info for Leopard courtesy of TexasMacMan;

    Leopard is no longer available at the Apple Store but may be available by calling Apple Phone Sales @ 1-800-MY-APPLE (1-800-692-7753).
    If you can't obtain a retail install DVD from Apple, look on eBay or Google the installer part numbers to possibly find at an on-line store. Here's what to look for:
    MB427Z/A  Leopard 10.5.1 install DVD
    MB576Z/A  Leopard 10.5.4 install DVD
    MB021Z/A  Leopard 10.5.6 install DVD (single user)

  • Extreme charging and syncing issues

    Okay, so for the past few weeks I've been developing charging and syncing issues. The first third party usb cable worked for a while and after some point it begin to physically wear and tear, and wires were disconnecting. Needed a new charger, so naturally I went and got another one. However, it didn't work, and as a measure to see if it was faulty, I plugged in the old one and smelt smoke/a burn smell.
    So, I plugged the new charger into an old ipod touch 2G and it charges and syncs just dandy. The 3GS is a particularly weird case here; as it will not charge while on. After letting it die, I plugged it in and got an empty battery indicator with a charging (lightning) symbol, and after a couple of minutes it powered back on, but still wasn't charging once ios actually booted up. Weird, right? If I could connect to windows I could restore it to remove the jailbreak, as using Erase All Content and Settings keeps the phone in an endless loop until I hard reset.
    The kicker here is that it seems to only charge when it's off, as if its plugged in and you slide to power off, and turn it back on later, it will sometimes have a higher percentage. And, at the place I work, we have many iPads so I plugged it up to the iPad chargers and it worked with some of them, albeit slower then expected.
    Is my phone not getting enough voltage or something of the nature? I have 3 wall adaptors, one apple, and two of them standard LG adaptors, and a third party usb cable that notably works for the iPod just fine. I've connected it to 3 different computers with itunes and the result was the same as if it was dead and plugged into the wall; enough power to boot to home screen then die afterwards.
    The thing that get's me is when I hit Erase All Content and Settings and it's plugged, it makes a charging noise indication but only when I hit that reset button. If it wasn't for that, I would beleive it was a hardware issue. That, or I'm just trying to deny the phone's inevitable fate. I needed a reason to switch to the 4s, so maybe this is it. I don't like giving on on something without fixing it though so it's gonna bother me until I do.
    Thanks for any suggestions or help!

    I have updated my ipad4 to ios7 and then I couldn't find my personal hotspot option.... Please please please help me to get back .... I really need help

    First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.
    Personal Hotspot should be at Settings > Cellular Data > Personal Hotspot

  • IPhone charge and Sync issues

    Hi there I have a problem with my 3G and I sincerely hope I can et some help here. I have had my iPhone for about 18 months give or take and have had no problems with it until recently. I had a minor issue about three months into my ownership, in that I broke part of the circuit board that connects to the charger and sync cable. If you were to look at the bottom of the phone, with the screen up, the missing piece would be at the far right. At first I was freaking out of course, but everything worked. I have successfully updated it twice and never had an issue with charging. I was shocked but very happy about this as you can well imagine. Very suddenly two weeks ago the iPhone would suddenly not kick into the charging mode, though it would trickle charge if left connected. It also is not recognised at all by my computer, or by iTunes. I have tried several computers and several sync cables now and can confirm that the problem is with the iPhone itself. I find it difficult to swallow that this problem is related to the earlier breakage, but I suppose it's possible. One interesting bit here is that if I connect the iPhone to the wall charger with the iPhone turned off, It still doesn't go into the charging mode, but the Apple logo appears, I believe this tells me that the issue isn't hardware related, but I'm not positive.
    Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks for the reply, but honestly I find it difficult to believe that the iPhone would work perfectly for approximately 15 months after being damaged. I'm not discounting the possibility, completely, but it is a bit hard to believe.

  • Erase and sync issues (backup/restore)

    Hello.
    I have an issue with the backup/restore with my iPhone.
    Sometimes, it is difficult to find an answer that fits your problem exactly on the forum!  Lots of good stuff though!
    This post will be little longer than normal, but I need to get all the facts on the table.
    I'll try to keep this brief.  Please hear me out!
    From another post ...
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/12273122
    Kwopau stated ...
    if you do a restore, you only have 2 options, Restore as new, meaning nothing will go on it
    and you will just have to start fresh and no contacts will go in there.
    The other option is "Restore from Back up _______" it will completely restore your phone
    from your last back up and everything will be on there.
    End of quote ...
    Here is my situation.
    I have a 3g 16GB iPhone.
    I am still running IOS 3 (not IOS 4).
    I do not use sync.  I  manually manage the music and books with iTunes.
    I have an HP laptop.
    A while ago, I had to completely rebuild the computer.
    The computer has a new computer and user name (I don't know if this matters in iTune/iPhone matchup)?
    I have not been able to connect the iPhone since then.
    Let me rephrase that.
    I can connect with iTunes.  I can see all that is on the iPhone.
    When I try to add or delete music or books on the iPhone with iTunes or set the manually manage check box, I get the following message ...
    The iPhone "myname's iPhone" is synced with another iTunes library.
    Do you want to erase this iPhone and sync with the this iTunes library.
    Most commands appear to be grayed  out,  I can't add or delete anything.
    I do not have anything in current  iTunes library at the moment. 
    My fear is this.
    If I do the erase and sync as suggested  (iPhone message above) to the iPhone and then use the new iTunes library,  will I be able to use the backup (I just created) to restore to the iPhone that I just reset?
    If so, will it have contacts and all the other stuff?
    I can afford to lose the music and books, and perhaps the apps on the iPhone.
    I cannot afford to lose my contact list.
    I need to find another way to backup the contact list, Outlook, etc?
    If there other posts relative to this, please point me to them.
    I am afraid to pull the trigger for fear that iTunes will not recognize the iPhone after the erase and sync and then not allow me to restore.
    Perhaps someone can put my mind at ease and convince me that it will all be good if I proceed!
    Thanks for you time and help in this matter ...
    Bob

    Do you know how to transfer purchases? Connect the iPad to the PC and launch iTunes. Click on the iPad nema on the left side of the iTunes window to select it. Then go to File>Transfer Purchases. That should put all of your purchased iPad content into the iTunes library on the PC.
    Here are instructions in a very short, easy to follow article.
    Transfer iTunes Library to a new computer
    This discussion will be helpful to show you how to make the PC work wTunes from the iPad.
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3305461
    This is the discussion from which I borrowed the some of the text in my post from the discussion above.
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/11527071#11527071
    What puzzles me is that if you had updated with the PC, I would have thought that you would have backed up and synced with that PC as well, but read the articles and instructions and post back with questions.
    You can email the pdf files to the iPad, or use iOS file sharing, and open and save them in iBooks or another pdf reader app, but start with getting your stuff onto the PC.

  • IPhone, Google & iCloud contact syncing issues

    Hi everyone,
    I'm having some issues getting my contacts synced correctly between my iPhone and Google account. I have searched a few forums looking for an answer for this particular problem and haven't found a solution yet so my apologies if I'm just missing something here.
    I have always synced my contacts via my Gmail account. In my Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars section, I have iCloud set up and then Gmail set up through Exchange for Contacts ONLY. If I added a contact on my iPhone, it would always sync directly to my Gmail Contact Manager. I only noticed that there is an issue all of a sudden because I was given an iPad mini as a gift recently and noticed that not all of my contacts synced. I checked my Gmail Contact Manager this seems to be because any of the contacts I have added on my iPhone since probably last December are NOT listed. If I log into iCloud and check my contacts there, the only contact listed is me as I have always only had contacts listed which are from my Google account.
    If I go into my Contacts app and hit Groups at the top left, all I see is Gmail/Exchange, Contacts (checked), Gmail/Exchange Global Address List (unchecked - if I try to click this no contacts appear at all), iCloud, All iCloud (checked). If I go into Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars and scroll down to the Contacts section, the Default Account is listed as Gmail/Exchange. I have tried clicking "Import SIM Contacts" to no avail, changing the Default Account and clicking and unclicking Groups.
    Where are the contacts I have added since December(ish) being stored? If they're not in my Google contacts nor in iCloud? How can I make them sync to my Google account again? Is there a way to "push"(?) everything to Google that I'm missing?
    Thank you all in advance!

    Best way is to use a 3rd party app managing groups. Easy Group is a free one I have developped.
    Launch it, all your groups will automatically appear
    Tap on "Edit"
    Tap on red cross next to the groups you want to delete

  • ICloud/IMAP Sync Issues

    I'm running into a syncing problem with iCloud and IMAP clients.  I am on Windows 7 and I've replicated this problem on multiple computers and multiple E-Mail clients (Windows Mail, Outlook 2010, Thunderbird).
    When I make folder changes using the iCloud.com website the changes do not get reflected to any of the above mentioned mail clients using the IMAP protocol.  The folders still display but cannot be edited/deleted - the error returned is  "The server responded NONEXISTENT."  If the server does not believe that these folders do not exist, why are they being pushed to my client? The deleted folders do not show up under subscription lists.  Has anyone else run across this issue? 
    Someone has the exact same problem I do, explained here...
    http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/office/forum/office_2010-outlook/cannot-delet e-imap-folders-in-outlook-2010-even-as/c1265eca-9791-47a6-9c3f-aa5da6085f0c?msgI d=8e7c41d4-fddd-4368-ae72-aece2be32dc8
    ... but no one was able to come up with a solution.

    I have two imap email accounts configured.  One is my personal email on my personal domain and another is my business email.  For business we don't use exchange so I configure everything manually.  Entering the email and password on the add account screen doesn't work.  I've noticed a general slowness since 1.3.1 and I've also noticed that if I have a bunch of messages on the server and for some reason the phone hasn't synched in a while, it stops synching until i remove and then reconfigure the account.  Any other ideas?

  • CS5 transcoding and sync issues

    Hi Everyone,
    I am a Final Cut Studio editor, very familiar with Compressor and DVD Studio Pro however I am brand new to Encore and am having a few frustrating issues with CS5. I am working on a blu-ray disc project (this is my first experience with Encore). Here are my issues:
    1. Why does Encore want to transcode EVERYTHING? I've tried all flavors of H.264 and MPEG-2, yet Encore still wants to transcode it! I've followed Adobe's published PDF guide to compressing for blu-ray in a Final Cut workflow using the recommended Elementary MPEG-2 stream, but no luck. I've even used Adobe Media Encoder CS5, MPEG-2 and H.264 for Blu-ray settings and Encore STILL wants to transcode!!! However, after a ton of experimenting I did finally find an H.264 setting in Apple Compressor thats works, but this leads to my next and even more frustrating issue…
    2. Using H.264 for Blu-ray and Dolby Digital Professional 2.0 (AC3) audio, the audio and video in my timelines are grossly out of sync. The audio track appears to be the correct length compared to the master, however the video comes in about 10 seconds short. My hunch is that it is a frame rate issue, however everything appears to be correct on that front, so I am stumped. I've also tried other audio encodings, but the issues remains. Therefore I assume the sync issue is with the video track.
    All of my video assets are 1280x720 30p, edited in Final Cut Pro 7 using ProRes 442. Does anybody have any information on an efficient compression workflow for blu-ray or insight on this sync issue (which after searching the forums seems pretty common with Encore).
    Greatly appreciated!

    I believe you are right about 720p30 not being legal for blu-ray. I was able to get around this by encoding with 59.94 fps. However I think you are mistaken about h.264. Blu-ray is not limited to just mpeg-2. H.264 is absolutely supported by blu-ray, it was officially adopted into the blu-ray spec about a year after blu-ray was introduced to the mainstream. Only some very early blu-ray players may have trouble playing back h.264 encoded discs. I am NOT talking about AVCHD BD5/9 discs either. I mean BD25 and BD50. If you look in CS5, you will see options to transcode non-compliant video to H.264.
    Hi Barizzo,
                     I never said blu-ray not supports h.264. I know I can author a h264 Blu-ray using Encore. But what I meant was that the Adobe workflow document only describes how to create legal mpeg-2 BD assets using Compressor, NOT h.264.
    Btw, It's glad to know that you are successfully completed your project.
    Is it really possible to generate legal h264 BD assets using compressor, i didn't know that. I was assuming that Compressor can create h.264 streams but not legal BD h.264 stream.. It would be great if you could share the steps.

  • ICloud and Calendar issue

    I recently turned on my iCloud and now my calendar no longer contains events past the last month. How can I view those events again?

    Go into Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars and scroll down to Calendars. Tap Sync and select the desired sync duration.
    Be aware that syncing a large number of events may cause performance issues.
