ICloud mail not syncing across my devices

I have my mail set up on my iMac, Macbook Pro and iPhone with my iCloud account. When I delete a message or move it to a folder it doesn't sync this across my devices unless I use iCloud logged onto the web. This means that I have to keep repeating my actions and sometimes the mail reappears after I've deleted it. How can it sync across all devices like MobileMe used to, as it's really inconvenient.
I use the Lion OS.

Not sure where you are looking to see the 0 bytes available part.
However, signing out of iCloud and back in again will trigger the push from iCloud to the device or computer you are signing out of and back in to.
To ensure that your data is stored in iCloud, go to iCloud.com and check your Calendar to make sure it has the latest data that you want pushed to your devices and to your Mac.
If everything is in iCloud, then it will push back to your device or computer when you sign back on.
Cheers,

After downloading maverick, iCloud will not sync across my devices

Since downloading Maverick [10.9], iCloud will not sync across my devices. Mail is not working properly. I'm being asked for passwords from everything.
Also, every time I close and then reopen Mail, I get a message saying "Mail cannot connect to the iCloud account "iCloud", requiring my password, again!
Is there a solution to this? How can I find out if it's server related, etc.?
Thanks to anyone out there that can help!

Try restarting your router and all the other devices.

ICloud Mail not syncing across devices

This issue has been bugging me for many months now and I have not been able to find a solution: I am an iCloud user for email etc, iPhone 4s with iOS7.0 and MBP with OSX10.8.5 and Mail 6.6. There are actually 2 issues which I would like help in resolving:
1. If I happen to notice a new email received on my iPhone and open up that new message using the iPhone, it then does not get downloaded by Mail on my MBP. If however I choose to ignore a new message in my iPhone's inbox and wait until I get home to read it using my MBP, then Mail downloads the unopened message and I can choose to read it using either the iPhone or MBP. However, new mail downloaded on my MBP and which I then open using Mail is also downloaded on my iPhone and marked as read.
2. Sent Mail is not sync'd across the two devices. I can get around this by bcc'ing myself on all sent messages.
I use IMAP and have tried some recommendations I have found on some help sites but to no avail.
Thank you

Unfortunately, iCloud only pushes new mail. In iOS, it has never pushed the updated status of mail read, moved or flagged on other devices. http://support.apple.com/en-ca/HT203545
You could try switching your iCloud mail to fetch instead of push. I've never tried this, but maybe it will fetch the read status, as per the fetch schedule.

ICloud mail not syncing to all devices

Hi, For the past few days my iCloud Mail program has not been syncing/downloading my .mac mail properly between my apple devices (iPhone 4, iPad new, and MacBook pro). The iPhone is getting mail Pushed as normal, but the laptop and iPad have shown no new mail for days. I've tried everything listed on the support pages and few things found on other forums. And I've also found a number of forum posts about iCloud mail migrating to new servers and that this is causing interruptions.. I have no idea what to make of that, but currently I can only access my .mac account by checking my iPhone or going to the iCloud webpage in Safari nothing is downloading. Any ideas/suggestions?
Thanks for any suggestions!

Hi, I have the same problem. Its working fine on my iphone, ipad is OK, but iMac not syncing. My wifes account works fine though. [email protected] accounts.
Any help would be appreciated.

Contacts and Calendar not sync across all devices

Installed mavericks a few weeks ago. Just looked at a contact on my iPad and iPhone and noted that changes made on my MacBook Pro are not showing up on either of these 2 devices. What is going on? I used to sync manually using iTunes. Tried this just now and does not update info in either calendar or contacts. I used to see :syncing Calendar, syncing contacts in the window describing progress - this does not appear.
Very very confused. Syncing across all devices very important. spend a lot of time in rural areas with no access to wi-fi. Am I trapped in iCloud only? if so How does that work?? Help!

Still confused - now I have multiple copies of the same event on my MacBook Pro, and iPad, and not at all on my i iPhone,
Just created a dummy contact on my iPad, and it appeared on MacBook Pro but not on iPhone. turned off iPhone and turned back on and new contact appeared.
My calendar on iPhone has no data from the time I started using Mavericks until a dummy event I added this afternoon. Do I need to turn my iPhone off and then back on to get it to sync? even with turning off and on the missing calendar items have not appeared.
I am a bit reluctant (afraid) to go to the web and look at my iCloud.com account for fear of sending yet another copy of the same calendar appointments and duplicate contacts / contacts info to myself on my devices. I have multiple copies of the same contact on my MacBook Pro. some of the contacts have 3 or 4 duplicates of the same information - example "home phone" or "e-mail address." Sometimes I have 3 or 4 copies of the same contact card.
Hope you are having a better day, I am completely confused and more than a bit frustrated. Has anyone written an app to replace sync services in Mavericks? I would gladly pay for it!

ICloud mail not syncing changes on iPad

My iCloud @me.com emails are not syncing on iPad.
If I move/read/delete an email on iCloud.com or on my iPhone/Mac it syncs across each device. However on the iPad the deleted/moved messages still appear in my inbox and display as unread etc. To clarify I am not talking about the badge icon as I know this doesn't update automatically, I am referring to the emails themselves. I have tried disabling iCloud mail and restarting my iPad but when I re-enable iCloud mail the deleted/moved messages still appear in my inbox. Any ideas?

Unfortunately that's how iCloud is designed
Mail will update Mac to Mac and iPhone,iPad,Ipod to Mac
But it will not update Mac to iPhone, iPad, and iPod
This support Doc was published for MobileMe but it still applies to iCloud
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1795
So you can read a mail on you Mac and it will update the status to another Mac but will not update the status on a iPhone,iPad or iPod
but if you read a mail on your iphone,iPad od iPod it will update the status on your mac
Silly but there it is 1000's of us have been complaining about it for years but Apple will not change it

Games are not syncing across iOS devices

My games are not syncing across my iOS devices. Both my iPhone and iPad are running the same software and are linked to the same account. However my games don't seem to sync. Which is annoying if I'm playing a game on one device I have to start over on another. For example temple run does not sync. Anyone have any suggestions. I'm also having the same problem with infinity blade 2.

Game syncs only work for games that support iCloud. The game developer has to enable that feature. There are several games such as Jetpack Joyride and League of Evil 2 that support iCloud syncing of games. Unfortunately, other games like Temple Run don't do that since the dev never implemented that feature.

ICloud Mail not syncing as "read" across all devices

If I read an email on my Mac, it does not mark as read on my iPhone and i still see the new mail notification on the lock screen and there is a new mail mark on the mail app icon when i unlock the iPhone until I open up mail app and it checks manually.
When I used the Gmail Exchange server or Gmail App with Gmail account it works perfectly and when i read my mail it sync immediately on all devices and the new mail notification disappear immediately after reading the mail on the other device.
Is there any way that iCloud mail can update reading mail Immediately like Gmail Exchange server or Gmail App?

ICloud not syncing across all devices

I have a macbook pro, iphone 4, and iMac. Both computers are running Lion and my iphone 4 is up to date.
I believe I set up iCloud correctly on all three devices. However, only the iMac and the iPhone seem to be syncing properly. For some reason, mail sent from me.com via my macbook pro doesn't show up in my other devices. Also, iCal entries made on my macbook pro are also not showing up.
Is there a quick fix? Some kind of setting somewhere that I need to change? All help appreciated.

mail.
Try turning mail and notes syncing off and on again on the MacBook.
calendars.
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.

My ical is not syncing across my devices

I have an IMAC, a Macbook, an IPAD and an IPHONE
my problem is that when i enter an event on my ipad it does not appear on any other device

On your iPad check Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars...scroll down to the Calendars section and tap Default Calendar. Here be sure you have selected your iCloud calendar and not, for example, the calendar under On My iPad or something esle. iCloud will only sync events added to your iCloud calendar so this must be selected as your default to sync added events to other devices.

Photos not syncing across all devices

This is more of a frustrated rant than it is a question. I have 3 devices, iPhone, iPad and Macbook pro.. all synced to iCloud. I am constantly having trouble with my photos not being in sync across all the devices.. i.e. my recent photos from my iPad were synced to my iPhone but they aren't showing up in iPhoto on my Macbook pro. Photos taken on those same days but using my iPhone did sync to my MacBook Pro. The iPad and iPhone are in sync together..
This is a maddening problem and I hope.. REALLY HOPE that upgrading to 10.3.3 and the new PHOTOS app FINALLY gets this right because up to know, I consider iCloud a fail due to inconsistencies like above.

Macbook mail not syncing with other devices after Maverick

After downloading Maverick on my macbook as well as on my imac, the mail on my macbook is not syncing with my other devices. My imac, iphone, and ipad are working and syncing as before downloading Maverick, but the mail in my macbook is not working properly. I have already done all current updates, any suggestions on how to resolve this issue?

Please disregard this post. I've found the answer to my own question!

IMessage not syncing across multiple devices

Hi All,
I have recently got on iPhone 4S as well as my exisiting iPad 1. My wife also has an iPad 2. All these devices have been updated sucesssfully to iOS 5.
We have one central iTunes account (mine) that gets used to purchase apps and music from iTunes - nothing out of the ordinary there.
We also have two iCloud accounts for use with our own devices (mine on the iPad1 and iPhone - my wife has one for her iPad2).
On the face of it - we can message back and forth ok apart from one small problem. Any conversation I start on the iPad will get duplicated to the iPhone but wont show any replies - these all go to the iPhone. So I'm basically looking at a one sided conversation from the iPad point of view.
Any conversation started on the iPhone just doesnt show up on the iPad at all.
I've found several posts (all based on the same theme) that suggests that I change the caller ID to the apple (iCloud) account on the phone and also 'reconfirm' the settings on the iPad.
This I have done several times but with no joy. I get the feeling that the sync between multiple devices isnt quite there yet.
Has anyone else come up against this in here - and if so - how did you fix it.
Thanks
Wayne.

The feature really doesn't work very well yet. Most likely a future update will fix it or at least make it more obvious why it doesn't behave consistently.
For what it's worth, after following the caller ID instructions that you have tried, it took about a day for syncing to start working but some conversations and messages still never show up on my iPad.
Not much we can do but wait for iOS 5.1 I'm afraid. No doubt apple are aware of the issue at this point.

ICloud mail not syncing with Droid RAZR

On July 24th, 2012 iCloud mail stopped syncronizing with my Droid RAZR. My wife and I have identical phones, and have currently active and functional iCloud accounts on Mac. Both of our phones had functional email syncronization before AND AFTER ICS updates. No new dowloands or settings changes have occured. I have ensured that we are using the correct manual settings [email protected], PW, imap settings mail.mac.com, port 993, SSL
I have tried using imap.mail.me.com and that does not work either. I tried the p07- prefix, and that too does not work. The only error it providfes is that it cannot connect to the server, and no other information is provided.
I was on with verizon support, apple support, and motorola support and no one knows what has happened or has any solution.
Have others encountered this problem recently? I have seen postings from last year on this, but nothing recently.
If others have solutions, please post.
Thanks

I had the same problem. Took me a long time to figure out but just got it working with Motorola level 2 support. For some reason the settings changed and they are different settings that what I got to work using the K-9 app. Basically, you need to change the incoming and outgoing server settings from what they were! incoming server is imap.mail.me.com. Use port 993, ssl/tls (accept all certificates) and authentication method should be LOGIN. Outgoing settings should be smtp.mac.com with port 587, require sign-in, authentication method is PLAIN

Why do PDFs in iBooks not sync across my devices

PDFs that I create on my MacBook Air and save in iBooks do not sync to my other iOS devices.

For me. I have had PDFs on my idevices for a while. I use to have to open in iBooks on a iDevice. Then sync that device to iTunes on my home computer then sync all my other idevices. That worked till about 6 months ago. That's why I was excited when I heard iBooks was coming to Mac. I was hoping it would fix. So I anxiously awaited and no beuno.
