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...

... 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?

  • Mail App and IMAP sync issues

    I am facing IMAP sync issues with Mail App ver 4.4. I have specified the automatic fetch interval as 1 minute. The problem is the App does not seem to send requests to the server to sync the Inbox folder alone, but it send requests to get STATUS and sync the other folders.
    Has anyone else faced similar issues.
    Radha

    Not many of us would set the interval to be only 1 minute -- too often for the speed of many connections. Have you tried 5 minutes to see if the behavior continues?

  • IMAP Sync issues between Mavericks and iOS

    Hi,
    I have an iMac, Macbook Pro, iPad and iPhone.
    I have IMAP mail setup on all.
    Sending and Receiving works on all devices.
    Anything I send from my iMac or Macbook pro shows up in the sent folder on all devices.
    Anything I send from my iPad or iPhone only only show up in the sent folder on the respective device it was sent from.
    Any drafts I save from my iPad or iPhone totally diappear!
    Any messages I mark as junk on my iPhone or iPad I am told i can't be done
    What am I doing wrong to make everything being in proper sync with each other?
    Thanks!

    Thank you for the quick response!
    I considered using icloud drive, but Apple (and many outside sources) say not to use icloud drive unless I have Yosemite installed. (I have old apps that run on Mavericks [photoshop elements 6 among them] that may not run on Yosemite, so I'm not eager to upgrade.) The page you sent me to states that syncing between specific apps on iphone and mac on Mavericks is possible. That's what I'm looking for. I prefer to sync locally, via itunes, but if I have to use icloud I will.
    I think I'm asking a dumb question, but I really have tried to find the information and all I've found refers to menus and options that don't exist in my configuration.

  • Icloud document sync issue between ipad and mac

    So was very excited when mountain lion could sync my spreadsheets (numbers) documents with my iPad, but having a weird issue (I think).
    So I took one of my spreadsheets from my Mac, and moved to iCloud. Opened it up in Numbers (Mac), made a few changes, and saved it.
    Now I go on my iPad, I see it. I open it up - great.
    Now for some reason, I have a duplicate spreadsheets named 'Untitled'. I have no idea how it got there, I am not sure what happens if I delete it (or if I should).
    Anybody know whats up with this?
    Thanks -

    When you place a document into iCloud from your Mac and then try to open it on a mobile device, you will be given the option of opening the original document or opening a copy. It sounds to me that you have chosen to open a copy.

  • 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 iCal sync Issue: Only iPad has correct nfo

    Of the four places (desktop, browser, iPhone, iPad) where my iCal is viewable I only have the proper info on the iPad.  I have toggled the iCal On/Off in the preferences pane of both MBP and iPhone to no good outcome. How do I get the iPad's correct info to populate across the other devices.  This annoying developement is recent and inexplicable, I have had no major system / software issues, all other aspects of iCloud are working properly.  I have most recent software on all iOS devices and 10.7.4 on the MBP.  Used to be there was a prompt asking how you wanted MobileMe to merge info... is it just me or was MobileMe more granular (like being able to reset sync history) and conceptually more understandable?  Anyway I'd greatly appreciate any leads, I've come up empty on this forum and the other mac forums.

    Fixed it. In case anybody else has this issue or simular. uncheck the calendar option in the icloud prefs, then check it back on. A little to simple.

  • 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.

  • 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...
    http://goo.gl/J7R6A
    Script that I create which, will help you remove it ..... (Let me know using the contact at that site.)
    http://goo.gl/rGV62
    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.

  • TS3999 iphone/icloud/ipad syncing issues

    I am trying to sync my iphone4 calendar to my new ipad and icloud.  Newly entered events are syncing properly on the ipad, iphone, and icloud. However, I cannot get my previoulsy entered events and recurring events from my iphone to sync with icloud/ipad.

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    First check that all your settings are correct, that calendar syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
    Make sure the calendars you are using are in your 'iCloud' account and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud account (you can do this by clicking/tapping the calendar button in the top left corner of the application ), non iCloud calendars will not sync.
    If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your calendars are in the iCloud account, you might try unchecking calendar syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling calendar syncing settings.

  • Deleting Empty Contact Group? iCloud contact syncing issues.

    I have two contact groups on my iPhone with no contacts in them.  How do I delete them from my iPhone?  They are annoying. I have read multiple threads on this topic and still can't figure it out.
    Also, after backing up to iCloud - not one of my 84 contacts actually backed up?  Is there some setting I am missing? Only one contact showed up and it was my own name and email address?
    Any help would be great.
    Thanks.

  • ICloud contacts syncing issues - restoring deleted users with other contact name

    Have you ever had a problem that iCloud restores a contact that is not on your phone anymore… and it restores with someone else name?

    I'm having the same problem as yours.
    I got a few contacts mixed after updating to iOS 8.3.

  • ICloud mail syncing issues

    My daughter and I have seperate iCloud mail accounts.  Her mail messages have started to show up in my mail  --  on my phone, iMac and on the web.  (My messages are still there too.)  This began after I bought a song for her from iTunes.  She does not have her own iTunes account but rather I buy her songs on her iPod using my account, just to have some parental control.  After buying it on iTunes, I saw her iPod in the list of devices associated with my iTunes account.  I may have made some changes in the "Summary" tab to create this problem.  Please help seperate our email accounts.  THANKS. 

    What you describe is not technically possible, so something else must be going on
    Firstly, do you actually have completely independent iCloud accounts, which were setup independently using separate AppleIDs, or are you actually using different iCloud email aliases within the same iCloud account?
    If you are using different iCloud aliases within the same account then you will receive each other's email. Aliases are not separate email accounts. All email to all aliases goes into the same InBox.
    iTunes and iCloud are separate, so her iPod appearing in your iTunes is to be expected.
    When you check in a Settings > iCloud on your devices are you each signed in to your respective iCloud accounts?

  • Google 2 Step Verification on Gmail causing 10.9 issues with iCloud Keychain Sync?

    Hi
    I have just installed 10.9 on my Air 2011 and it works fine. I signed up the iCloud Keychain sync. I also updated my iPhone to iOS 7.0.3 and also signed up for iCloud keychain sync. All appeared well until I set up my iMac 2009. This had the same email accounts setup but as POP not IMAP (my bad) and so I ended up with multiple email account copies everywhere. I corrected this on each device without issue. Managed to lock an exchange account for work but I can sort that through IT support tomorrow. Anyway an issue with my Gmail cropped up. As I have 2 step verification enabled I have application specific passwords for each device. Now I found that the iMac (last to move to 10.9) propagated its app specific password to the Air and then locked the Gmail access out. If I correct on the Air it propagates back to the iMac locking that out of my Gmail account.
    So iCloud Keychain sync only seems to support one password for each email account.
    The only option I can see is disable 2 step on gmail and revert to my account password rather than an app specific password.
    Has anyone had a similar issue?
    Has anyone managed to get a solution where gmail 2 step can be retained?
    Is there a way to block certain accounts from participating in the iCloud Keychain sync?
    Is there a way to force the same app specific password on multiple gmail accessing devices?
    Any help welcomed.
    Thanks

    Yep. My other iMac works now too on App specific passwords and iCloud Keychain sync. So that is my iPad, iPhone, Mac Pro, Air, iMac 2012 all working fine on Gmail App Specific passwords. Just my iMac 2009, presume its my bad and in need of a revoke. Sorry for wasting all your time.

  • Syncing Issues with iCloud and iPhone

    My iPhone 4 had to be replaced.  Yesterday I spent 2 hours on the phone with Apple Care while they tried to resolve the issue of why my new phone wasn't syncing with my Address Book and Calendars.  The cloud FINALLY gave up the data.  Now I find that not all of my ringtones have synced.  Does anyone know how to resolve this particular syncing issue?  The ringtones are in my iTunes library under "ringtones," they were on my other iPhone 4 and worked just fine, and I've checked the boxes in front of each one on the "Sync Ringtones" window when my new iPhone 4 is plugged in.  Four out of ten have synced.  The rest refuse to make the trip.  Any clue as to what to do?  At this point, I'm ready for the iCloud to disappear and give the old system back.

    First check that all your settings are correct, that notes syncing (mail and notes on a computer) is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
    Make sure the notes you are adding are added to your 'iCloud' account and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone'  or other non iCloud account (you can do this by checking in accounts on an iOS device, or the left side panel in mail on a computer), non iCloud notes will not sync.
    If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your notes are in the iCloud group, you might try unchecking notes syncing (mail and notes on a computer) in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling notes syncing.
