ICloud not syncing on all devices

iCloud is not syncing any documents I make through pages, whether I create the document on my iPad, iPhone or my Macbook Air. It says it is syncing, but never does. I started a document earlier this week on my Mac and finished it on this last Friday, and only 2/3 of it is available on my other devices. I created a new document on my iPhone today and it is still syncing, or trying to.
Devices and computers have been restarted and checked. I have enough storage. I would think that I cloud is experiencing issues but Apple is showing green lights across the board.
Is anybody else experiencing any issues? or maybe have a solution?

To change the iCloud account you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iDevice, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use. When you do this you may find that the password for your old ID isn't accepted. If this should happen, and if your old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, you need to temporarily recreate your old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll. When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.
If the old ID is not an earlier version of your new ID and your password is not accepted when you delete the account, you will have to contact the Apple account security team for assistance resetting the password: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699.

Icloud not syncing with all devices?

Why is my iCloud not syncing with all my devices (pc, iPhone)? Help please, anyone.

Welcome to the Apple community.
Can you please provide some more information about your problems.

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.

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 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.

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.

ICloud not syncing on IOS5 devices

My iCloud is syncing correctly with my Outlook 2007 and iCloud.com. But it is not syncing with any of my IOS5 devices (iPhone 4/iPad). On both of my IOS devices in the settings I am logged into iCloud and I have each of the options to sync turned on. But nothing is syncing with iCloud on my iOS devices.
I used mobile me for several years and it synced fine with Outlook/Mobileme/iPhone/iPad. But after I made the move from Mobileme to iCloud yesterday, nothing is syncing betweenany of my IOS devices after I installed IOS5. Is anyone else having this issue?

i just posted something that maybe related. I only found this post after the fact. my issue happened after i made some changes to my contacts folder in iCloud. Only iOS devices are affected. PC and MACs are syncing okay.

TS4337 Can't get icloud to sync to all devices

I can't get i cloud to sync to all devices

Are you sure your calendar doesn't belong to another service such as Gmail (Google), Yahoo or and exchange account that is set up on your Mac, rather than iCloud? If the calendar doesn't appear on iCloud.com, it isn't an iCloud calendar that you are seeing on your Mac.

ICloud not showing on all devices

I set-up iCloud on all of my devices and it is only showing three out of four devices. It shows my iMac, iPhone, iPad but not my macbook pro. I follow all the set-up steps and no success. Any suggestions?

Click on your Mac's System Preferences and open up iCloud. Make sure "Find My Mac" has a check mark. If that doesn't help, try making sure you are using the same Apple ID across all your Apple devices. Remember that with iCloud, you now have two Apple IDs. Your first Apple ID is the one you normally use to download purchases with your everyday email address i.e. @Gmail, @Yahoo, @Hotmail etc. Your second Apple ID is your iCloud or @Me email address. Hope this helps.

HT4489 Ever since the last update IOS5.1.1, calendar entries are not saved on Icloud, and would not sync on all I clould devices

After the last update of IOS5.1.1, all caledar entries are not saved on Icloud and thus not synced on all my Icloud devices, even though, spreadsheets are synced, photostream is working and contacts is syncing, only calendar items. Anybody has the same problem? Or a solution to this kind or problem?

My iCloud email does not sync to all my devices

My iCloud email (yes an @me address) does not sync to all my devices. My phone and mac sync perfectly, but my iPad never updates. If I have my mac and phone on the mail program and I archive an email it works instantly on both devices. However my iPad seems to be in the stone age. Even though I've archived all my mail and my inbox is empty on both my mac and phone my iPad still has a notification for 28 new emails going back to last week. Its like my iPad is completely seperate.

Like I said its seemless between my phone and mac. I can archive on my phone and it will immediately disappear from my iMac and vice versa. Its odd that it works on one iOS device and not another... And when I say my emails don't archive on my iPad I mean it shows the last 50 emails (because of my settings) from my inbox like I haven't already archived them already. So I have emails on my iPad from 9 days ago =\

Does not work (does not synchronize photos) iCloud Photo Library on all devices

hi there.
Help, please.

iCloud Photo Library is enabled on both devices.
lit bar showing the download and srarzu goes out.

thank you in advance for your help

If deleting a photo from any device deletes it from the iCloud Photo Library, "library" may not be the right word to describe its function. Surprised nobody else has commented on this. Am I the only one who got this wrong?
Your iCloud Photo Library is in iCloud, and the main purpose is to sync and update it across all your devices. Any change you do, including deleting, will sync across all devices syncing with iCloud Photo Library.
If you want to save space on your mobile devices use the "Optimize Storage" option. Then you will store only optimized thumbnails on your devices and keep the full resolution versions in iCloud.
http://www.apple.com/osx/photos/
Fill your library, not your device.
iCloud Photo Library can help you make the most of the space on your Mac. When you choose “Optimize Mac Storage,” all your full-resolution photos and videos are stored in iCloud in their original formats, with storage-saving versions kept on your Mac as space is needed. You can also optimize storage on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch, so you can access more photos and videos than ever before

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 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,

Notes on iPhone5 not syncing to other devices nor to iCloud in the "On My iPhone" account. How to fix?

I have not been able to sync my existing Notes on my iPhone4S to other devices, nor to my iCloud account. On the iPhone4S, I see I now have two Notes accounts: "On My iPhone" and my Apple ID account. All notes in the Apple ID account sync as they should. None of the "On My iPhone" notes sync at all. Seems to have started with the upgrade to iOS6 but not sure.
I have all devices on current software as of 12-12-12, all settings for iCloud and Notes have sync'ing enabled. I've sync'd with iTunes, backed up to my computer, disconnected, shut down, and cold-started the iPhone4S. Any suggestions to get these notes sync'ing most welcome.

Basically what your looking at in on the Accounts page of the Notes App is where you are saving the notes. On this iPhone, notes are saved on this iPhone and don't sync to other devices. You say you see an account for your Apple ID. I don't know what you mean cause I've not seen that. I do have an iCloud account that syncs to other devices and I created the account in Settings > iCloud > Notes and I was prompted to create the account. If that's what you mean by Apple ID account simple copy and paste the notes from the On this iPhone account to the iCloud account to sync across your devices
Hope that helps
