ICloud won't sync calendar both ways

I have iCloud syncing my calendars between 6 devices. If I add a new appointment on my Macbook Pro, the appointment shows up everywhere immediately. If I type in a new event on my iPhone, it shows up on all devices, EXCEPT my Macbook Pro.
Any ideas anyone?
Thanks

How to sync iCal with Google calendar (both ways)???

I have been trying to sync my ical with my google calendar both ways.
I got all new event created in google calendar syncing into iCal but i can't get the one created in iCal go into google calendar.
Help please!!!!
thx

When entering a new event in iCal be sure your "google" calendar is highlighted on the left had side of your screen. That makes Google your default calendar as you add events. Or you can choose which calendar from the drop-down box in the details box when adding a new entry. The down side is that is seems you can only select one Calendar; so the "Home", "Work", "Untitled" options become moot if you want to sync back to google.
If you already had events scheduled in iCal; you can right click on them, select "Calendar" and then choose your google calendar. When you refresh your google calendar that event should show up.
You simply need to be sure what Calendar you're entering into. Also if you wait a few SECONDS the calendars DO sync without any need to manually synchronize them.
So basically, ensure you're entering into the Google Calendar in iCal and wait a minute.

My iPhone won't sync calendar to iCloud, only to Google calendar, which I've never used. Events from iCloud sync to the phone and to Google. Huh???

My iPhone 3GS (ios 5.1) won't sync calendar to iCloud, only to Google calendar, which I never authorize or use. Yet when I entere an event on the iCloud calendar, it syncs to the iPhone (and to Google calendar) just fine. Any suggestions?

Welcome to the Apple community.
iCloud cannot sync with Google calendars, so it would seem that you may be using the wrong calendar account. Click on the calendar button in the top right hand corner of the calendar app and check which calendar you are adding your events too.

HT4858 Photostream/iCloud won't sync with PC.

Photostream/iCloud won't sync with PC. Everything is turned on, works for iPhone and iPad just not PC. Do not want to wipe phone to fix what should be a simple (and paid for) thing. Used to work fine but hasn't in a couple of months, even though no settings were changed. Please help

I have the same issue. My photos stopped on Nov.9th.
I just deleted and reinstalled version 3.1 and it took 90 pictures from my Photostream and transfered them to my PC
Thing is that I have 318 pics in my Photostream. The synching works fine between my iPhone 5S, iPad2, iPhone 3G and iPhone 5.
My wife is getting a iPad Air for Xmas so no idea of how it will work then but I assume it will be no problem.
I have Windows 7 and so does my mom on her laptop and PC which I also connected so I don't have to send her pics but she can just check. I had to update both machines to 3.1 and they only grabbed 85 pictures.
This is quite annoying when you live 500 kilometers apart and all worked fine until the latest updates.
Please Apple fix this asap as it's a lifeline for families all over the world

Does Sync works both ways (Android to PC)?

I've installed Firefox for Android for the first time. I logged into Sync, and pretty soon I could access all my PC bookmarks on my Android phone.
I then bookmarked a page on the phone, but I can't find it on my PC still (it's been several hours).
Does the Sync work both ways (Android to PC also)?

Important: Firefox Sync requires the latest version of Firefox. Make sure you have updated Firefox on any computer or Android device.

ATT 680 won't sync calendar entries to server

I am using Active Sync to access my e-mail, etc. It syncs everything from server to phone without difficulty. It won't sync calendar or contacts from phone to server (and there is no error message). I think I understand that it can't sync contacts, but should sync calendar. I have seen several postings about this in this forum, but the answers seem to relate to different phones or different carriers. I have the latest update for ATT 680 users which included an EAS update. My versamail is v. 3.5.5
Post relates to: Treo 680 (AT&T)

You may want to check with your IT professional(s) to see if you can sync Calendar to the server. The reason being is because some servers restrict things or users from doing certain things. The defaults, unless changed, are setup to sync calendar and contacts usually.

Sync from where? iOS version?

Icloud won't sync with my iMac 2013

Hi everybody
Maybe someone can help me out with the following issue. I bought me an Imac 27'' one month ago to replace my macbook pro which had become to small concerning the screen. I used the migration assistant to copy all of my data to my new Imac and everything went smooth except for my contacts. Icloud won't sync any addresses into the contact application and neither can I use a backup file to get my contacts into the application. Everything else works just fine with Icloud. I already tried to deactivate Icloud and reactivate it, but none did work. I thought that the update to 10.8.3 might help...but no it didn't. So here I am hoping that maybe someone out there might help me with this I'm sure tiny issue.
Greetings from Luxembourg and thanks in advance for your help.

Outlook and iCloud won't sync since Windows 8.1 upgrade

So I've finally figured out my problem, but have no solution. The problem is that ever since I upgraded to Windows 8.1, Outlook "forgets" that the iCloud add-in is enabled. Every time I start Outlook, I have to manually go into options and re-enable the add-in. After that, syncing calendars and contacts to iCloud and my iPhone works just fine. In order to fix this, I figured out that I can set Outlook to run as an administrator. Works perfectly, as in now having the add-in enabled automatically. I thought this was the end of my troubles, but now Outlook no longer syncs with iCloud. Tried everything, and it just won't.I read on another thread that Outlook won't sync when you run it as an administrator. And sure enough, switching back to NOT running it as an administrator fixed the problem, in that it now syncs again. However, I'm stuck with re-enabling the add-in every time I start Outlook. Is there no other way to do this?

I don't use playlists. Maybe as a workaround you could try music software other than Windows Media Player, like Media Monkey
http://www.mediamonkey.com/
And see if you have better luck.
The free version of Mediamonkey should do playlists for you; what you get with the Gold (paid) version, mostly, is an mp3 ripper, but you can also install an mp3 ripper without buying it.

ICloud won't sync to my iPhone

Hi! I've migrated to iCloud and all my devices except my iPhone synced my contacts. I can see my contacts correctly on iCloud.com, on my 3 other Macs' address books. But none of my contacts shown on the iPhone contacts. I've enabled iCloud contacts sync on my iPhone, chosen delete all off the phone now it doesn't populate my contacts from iCloud. I've tried re-disabling and re-enabling again and again. It says activating contacts but its been two days and nothing happening. Is there any way?

Ok, i may have found a temporary solution. This may (virtually, not really) tie all multiple iCloud accounts together to merge all data on macs and cloud.
In my case i have two Apple IDs, one old (to purchase apps and music) and one new (mobile me), both registered valid to iCloud. I made them both have same contact, calendar and vice versa data manually. Then wiped my iPhone clean, first synced with my old Apple ID. All contact data filled in. then erased account from iCloud settings on the iPhone, chosen to leave all data on the phone intact, not to erase them. Then set up my mobile me account and chosen to merge all data on the iPhone with .me accont. It doesn't caused any problems like multiple contacts or anything.
Then to test this when all my contact apps on all devices were open (iphone, icloud and apple address book on the mac) i added edited some info on iCloud.com contacts. They all immediately synced to all devices . Now it seems working ok. This is my temporary unofficial solution. I hope it works for all of you.
PS: Because i DO NOT trust the process, in the beginning i backed up my mac address book to a file to use in any case of emergency.

ICloud won't SYNC

I have just upgraded to Lion and migrated to iCloud from Mobile Me - Mail works well but my calendar and address book won't sync - I have checked all of the blocks in the iCloud system preferences - any ideas what to try next?

Open System Preferences then click Mobile Me. If it says you are moved to cloud then just make sure you are signed out. If you are NOT signed out, click sign out.
Sign in to cloud in a web browser and check hyour calendars there. If they are good there... go to System Preferences and sign out of the cloud. If not, back up your local calendars in iCal. Then sign out of cloud and back in (in System Preferences, keeping contacts as long as they are all good in cloud, else back those up locally too).
MobilleMe sometimes just doesn't get signed out and tries to keep syncing.

ICloud won't sync with Office Documents on Windows Desktop - A huge limitation

I'm not able to sync my Macbook and iPhone to the Office documents on my Windows desktop. I want to use Pages on both my iPhone and Macbook to edit the Word documents I store on my Windows desktop.
This is very limiting and would force me to find another solution (I know many in this same situation). What will Apple do to address this?

Thanks Csound1. That's what I figured out. It is unfortunate, since I really wanted to use iCloud.
There are several other cloud services that support syncing documents between a Windows, OSX, and iOS platform without any restrictions. I could use them to cloud sync documents from my Windows desktop to either my iPhone or Macbook, and then use Pages, Numbers, or Keynote to update . The only tricky part is syncing it back to the cloud from my iPhone, which requires me to email the updates back and then manually update the sync file using sync management software (either Mac or Windows). Somewhat clugy and error prone, but it works until a better solution emerges. Perhaps a solution is around the corner -Microsoft is now developing new Office Suite products for iOS, OSX, and Windows, so perhaps this will be able to provide true cross platform compatability that many businesses need along with seamless cloud syncing.
I really hope Apple soon supports iCloud syncing of Office files to Windows. iCloud already supports syncing with Outlook on the Windows platform, so I can't see why Apple won't support syncing Office documents to a Windows platform. Every other cloud service supports this.

IPod won't sync calendar/contacts with outlook???

My iPhone syncs it's calendar with Outlook fine on two (windows) computers.
*But my iPod classic won't do either???*
When i plug in the classic and look at the contacts tab, it only offer "Windows Address Book" for contacts, and down in the calendar section it states that Outlook must be installed to sync calendars?
Obviously outlook is installed and working because the iPhone syncs calendars with both computers...
what gives?
thanks in advance for your help!

I have the same problem since I updated to iTunes 10.2 Sue (I think). For me this was somewhere in January.
I wasn't sure iTunes was the issue, until I read your post. I tested syncing a note, and that works fine.
My 2nd generation Ipod Touch runs on IOS 4.2.1. It won't upgrade to 4.3.
Possibly the synchonisation between iTunes 10.2 and IOS 4.2.1 doesn't work correctly.
Has somebody else solved this isue? I use both calendars (on iPod Touch and on PC) for work and private matters.
Otherwise I have to uninstall iTunes 10.2 and downgrade to 10.2.

ICloud won't sync with my Mac.

I have installed iCloud on my miniMac, my iPhone, and my iPad 2. When I can't a doucment on my iPhone or iPad, both are updated, but my Mac won't sync with either the iPhone or iPad. Can anyone tell me how to make all three (Mac, iPhone, and iPad) directly with each other for documents?
