Icloud sync, what is dominant ????

When I edit contacts they get changed back to how they were before editing after charging every night. Do I need to go to icloud.com and edit for them to stay or what is the dominent area to edit so it will change all of the others.

well i think when i was updating to 7.02 iTunes, i saw something that said sync, but i dont know if it was checked or ON.. but could that have taken off all the songs?

    Thank you.

    So you have business contacts that were lost... do you not have these on a Database in some shape or form? Sounds like you need to invest in a RAID1 backup setup for your computer so you dont have this issue in the future.
    As for repairing your problem, sounds like you are going to need to start from scratch at this point or if the data is still on your phone look into a program that can take the information from the phone onto iTunes.

  • Just converted from MobileMe to iCloud. But now my iCal does not sync with either my iPhone or iCloud.  What have I missed?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Is calendar syncing enabled on both the computer and the phone.
    Are your calendars in your iCloud group and not in a on my mac group.
    only calendars in the iCloud group will sync.

  • TS4009 How do I clean up mail in my icloud?  I have already deleted old mail on all devices, and emptied the junk & deleted files, but it still shows that I am at max on my icloud. What do I do to free up space? (photos & apps do not take up that much roo

    How do I clean up mail in my icloud?  I have already deleted old mail (from all my e-mail accounts) on all devices, and emptied the junk & deleted files, but it still shows that I am at max on my icloud. What do I do to free up space? (photos & apps do not take up that much room).  When I go to manage storage on any device & it will display how much room each program or app is using, it still shows that my e-mail is taking up the most room.  Is there a way to actually log on to the icloud server to manage what it stored there?  If so, how do I do it?  Also, on a related subject,  why does my mail not sync accross all devices?   ie. when I delete an email on one device, why do I still see it on all my other devices?  How can I change this?
    I have an iphone5, ipad2, ipod 4th gen, ipod 3rd gen, all running on my same apple id - but I have a PC not a Mac home computer - is this part of the problem?  Looking to upgrade to a Mac sometime this year...
    Thank-you for the help!

    I do have the Time Capsule and spoke to Apple Care here in Sydney about it yesterday.  They told me my mail is not backed up there unless I create a special folder. I just tried ringing them again but Apple Care is closed today...
    Mail is backed up automatically. If you make backups automatically, open Mail application and then, open the Time Machine app (in /Applications/Utilities). You will access to the Time Machine interface, and you will be able to see all your mails of all the backups you have, and you will be able to restore them. It means that your mails are backed up onto the Time Capsule

    => is this a different iCloud account for each device?  I thought iCloud account ID had to match some iTunes account ID, for which we only have one i Tunes account?
    You need to set up a separate iCloud account for each person that does not want to share their iCloud data.  If you share an iCloud account with someone, any data you both sync with the shared account is merged, and you end up with each other's data on your device(s).  If, for example, you owned two devices and someone else in the family also owned two devices, you would both want your own iCloud accounts, and you would each set up your personal iCloud account on the two devices you own.  In other words, you want a separate iCloud account for each person to be used on the devices they own.  Each iCloud account has to have a separate Apple ID.  The ID does not need to be the same as the ID used for iTunes.  Many families perfer to share the same iTunes account/ID, but maintain separate iCloud accounts with different IDs to keep there data separated.

    => what ID, iTunes?  So I can have a separate iCloud account "only" ID which I also assume must be some [valid] email address?  The children currently do not have email accounts anywhere.
    Yes, I was referring to the iTunes ID not needing to be the same as the ID used for iCloud.  In order to set up an Apple ID your children will need to have a valid email address that can be verified by Apple.  Apple requires this so they have a way of contacting the owner if there is a problem with the account, such as when you may need to reset the password on the account.  When you set up the ID, Apple will send a verification email to this email account and you will need to click on the verificating link in the email to complete the process.  If they don't currently have an email account you can just set one up with gmail or another free email hosting service.  They don't have to use the account but you will need it to set up the ID.

  • My Mac has a Different Apple ID to my (ex mobileme) iPhone - how do i get them to iCloud sync?

    I have just moved my mobileme account to iCloud, and attempted to synchronise my iPhone and Mac - but now both are pointing at different Apple IDs !!! HELP.
    Two Apple IDs?
    I have long used one Apple Id for iTunes and my App Store purchases, whereas my MobileMe account handled all the synching of data, contacts, calendar etc between my Mac and Phone. I had no idea at all that my MobileMe account was also an Apple ID whenever this was set up... indeed even in System Preferences MobileMe had a separate account login to iTunes or the App Store.
    MobileMe to iCloud forced my phone to use my MobileMe account instead of my Apple ID account.
    While I have used the same Apple ID used for purchasing across both devices... I didn't get a chance to set up my iPhone with the same AppleId as my mac...the process just decided to use my mobile me account.
    MobileMe => iCloud has permanently set up my devices with DIFFERENT Apple Ids.  No way to change Apple IDs
    So the MobileMe to iCloud sync process has landed my iPhone with my MobileMe account as an Apple ID, whereas my Mac is on my iTunes (payments) Apple ID.  It seems there's no way to change the Apple ID on any device - the latest OS updates have removed that possibility.
    So iCloud doesnt work at all....!!!
    Basically iCloud is syncing absolutely none of my data between my devices... one device points at one account (ex MobileMe) while the other points at my (payments/iTunes) account.  I can't change either of them to point at the same one.
    And to top it all, one of the iCloud accounts isn't even syncing?
    So now what iCloud?

    the key to happiness is separating the 'itunes' id from the 'everythign else' id.
    the 'everything else' id should be (maybe must be) an @me email; make a new one if necessary. it's only used for iCloud.
    LEAVE your iTunes id as-was; you do not want to add yet anohter id to your purchases. I even un-did any and all of my old iTunes DRM purchases by burning songs to virtual CDs and ripping back into iTunes for my older multpiple apple ids from the past.
    when setting up an iPhone iPad or even mac lion you need to use the @me address, however when DONE setting up initial set-up you must LOG OUT in settings -> store and from iTunes and sign back in with the iTunes user id.
    once your iCloud user is the new @me free username (you do not have to EVER use it for email so fret not that it's a 'new email address). you can get all your devices syncing happily.
    FYI; you can get ios4 and snow-leopard (probably even leopard) syncing happily through iCloud as well; push may not work, have to hit 'refresh' but i have to do that on my lion mac anyhow so big deal

  • Is there any way to get iCloud sync (iPhone + 2 Macs) without wi-fi?

    We have two Macs (MacBook Pro, iMac) and one iPhone 4; OSs up-to-date (Lion, iOS5).  Our only routine access to the internet is via the mobile phone 3G network for the iPhone, and via a 3G USB stick/dongle for the Macs, also using the mobile phone network.  We do NOT have access to the internet via a local wi-fi link to a router (whether ADSL or cable).  This is in Melbourne, Australia, btw.
    Question: is there any way at all that we can get syncing of contacts and calendars for all three devices? - preferably automatic, ideally real-time whenever a device could see the internet.  With syncing set, there seem to be some random updates (and duplication) between devices, but it seems that normally syncing is enabled only when the device sees the internet via a local wi-fi link to a router, and that's what we don't have.  (We can't trundle the iMac to an internet cafe either!)
    Understood that a local sync would be possible via iTunes for one of the two computers and the iPhone, provided they could see each other wirelessly - but there's a second computer...
    E-mail no problem; we use IMAP.
    All suggestions gratefully received!

    Thanks for this quick response.
    I thought I had established by searching forums that iCloud sync routinely requires wi-fi.  I can see from Apple documentation that backup does; and that Documents and Data (in iOS) has a switch to permit/deny syncing using a cellular network.  What I have not found is a one-stop-shop on the Apple site that says which iCloud facilities are supposed to work with cellular/3G networks and which not.  Can you point us to such a list?
    Regarding our own problem: the missing link appears to be the download of new entries from the cloud to either of the Macs, the Mac being connected to the internet via 3G.  For example a new calendar appointment entered on the Mac duly appears on the iPhone; but a new appointment entered on the iPhone fails to appear on the Mac.  (If it is re-entered on the Mac, it gets duplicated on the iPhone.)  Checking the iCloud website show that a new iPhone appointment is getting as far as the cloud; but apparently no further. 
    I think you'll agree that this makes iCloud calendar syncing next to useless.
    This may not (as you imply) be caused by the use of the 3G connection.  However in the two households in our family we have one with wi-fi and essentially the same setup, except that the iPhone is a 3GS.  In the wi-fi setup, a new appointment entered on the iPhone calendar promptly shows up on a Mac.
    If the sync problem has nothing to do with the mode of internet connection, how might it be cured?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    I have seen previous versions mentioned in a pop up message before on iCloud.com, but I'm not really sure at all how it would help, as I couldn't get it to do anything.
    The best advice I have at this time is to back up your work on your iOS device by regularly saving it to iTunes, if anything goes wrong you can then either load it into the numbers app again on the device or recover it via iTunes on your computer.
    My syncs are immediate, I never get chance to see if it works in the background, sorry.

  • Icloud sync is not working for apps

    I just noticed that my icloud sync is no longer working.  Apps like 1Password, Drafts, Reminder, Calendars, Fantastical used to sync between my IPAD Air and iphone 6 but they are not syncing now.
    What are some of the possible issues and can anyone suggest remedy?
    Thanks in advance!

    Managed to solve the issues by turning off icloud drive.  Re-started iphone.  After iphone turned on, turn on icloud drive again.  All the apps started to sync again.

    Hi Winston
    Further to the above I have now discovered that I have two iCloud accounts in my notes so there are two icloud folders !!
    If I delete one, then all the notes are deleted from the other one. If I move all the notes from one into the other then the empty one is populated with two of everything !!
    Dont want to uncheck Notes in iCloud as there is a drop down box that advises that all notes will be removed from my Mac if I take that action
    Not sure what to do now !!

  • ICloud sync questions

    I've got a MBP running Lion 10.7.2, a first generation iPad and an iPhone 4S, both running iOS 5.0.
    I have set both the iPad and the iPhone to sync AND backup via iCloud.
    If I create a new iCal event on my MBP, it may show up immediately on one device, and not for a few minutes on the other.  It's not always consistent which one gets it first.  So my first question is ... what exactly is happening here?  How quickly does my MBP send the new event to iCloud, and how quickly is it supposed to sync to my devices?  Is iCloud supposed to push the event to the devices as soon as it gets it, or do the devices "check in" every so often and pull down any changes?
    For instance, a few minutes ago, I deleted a "test" event in iCal on my iPad.  The event still shows up on my iPhone and MBP.  So I closed iCal on the iPhone, re-opened it, and the deleted event was gone.  Is the iPhone waiting for me to close the app and re-open it?
    Same with the MBP - the event stayed there in iCal until I quit iCal and re-opened it.  Then it disappeared. 
    Is this how iCloud sync is supposed to work?

    Also, you need to have activated the computer for use with itunes. Why that's not done when you install is a mystery.
    Because you don't need an iTunes account tio use or install iTunes.
    You cannot authorize the computer until you have an account because that's what you are authorizing.
    Note, you can only have 5 active computers, but you can deactivate all of them.
    You can have 5 computers authorized at any one time. You can only select Deauthorize all when you do hae 5 authorized and you can only do it one time per year.
    Next, create/update your itunes account.
    Again you cannot "activate" (which is authorize) unless you have an iTunes account. So you cannot authorize iTunes and then create an iTunes account.
