"Inconsistent data" for sync

I am using Mobile Me to sync iCal with my home and work computers and my iPhone. My home computer (OS 10.5.8) has not been syncing with Mobile Me for a few weeks, saying "Calendars could not be synced due to inconsistent data." I have gone into my System Preferences and selected that the computer's iCal data is replaced by the Mobile Me data. When it attempts to sync again, I get the same message. I have also tried unselecting "Mobile Me" and then re-registering the computer, to sync from scratch. That has also not helped.
Any suggestions? My Mobile Me data is correct and up-to-date; I just want to replace my computer's info. Thanks in advance....

I have been trying to resolve this same problem for 2 weeks. My suggestion is to communicate with MobileMe support because it is included with your subscription.
I went to http://www.apple.com/support/mobileme and clicked on "Syncing with MobileMe" and then "Troubleshooting MobileMe Sync Issues." The last choice under "Have You Tried?" is Express Lane and I asked for a phone call rather than chat. I had about a 5 minute wait before help arrived. I made a backup of iCal using the File/Backup iCal command in iCal. I can't remember all the steps the tech had me go through but he said that the MobileMe database was corrupted. When it was done, I had duplicate calendars and events so I had to replace iCal with the saved file and then sync one direction from my computer to MobileMe. It took about 15 minutes for all the data to populate correctly. Then I added events both in my phone and on my computer. All seems to be working smoothly again.

I'm unable to send and receive email through Apple Mail 4. I've checked my settings on Preferences, and my password to Gmail is up to date for syncing with IMAP, but it still won't connect. Suggestions?

I'm unable to send and receive email through Apple Mail 4. I've checked my settings on Preferences, and my password to Gmail is up to date for syncing with IMAP, but it still won't connect. Suggestions?

I think it's trying to open it in a gMail eMail & is losing your gMail password that it needs log into gMail, but not 100% positive.
Have you tried Right clicking or Control+click on the eMail link & choose Copy? Works on some, not others.

Sorting projects by date for syncing

I'm a new Aperture user and have recently imported a few years worth of iPhoto pictures. Everything went smoothly and I am really enjoying Aperture. I do, however, have one concern - syncing with iTunes. With iPhoto I could have the last 12 months events synced with my iPad and iPhone. This automatically changed as time passed so I always had the last 12 months of photos with me. But with Aperture if I select all projects from the last year, or month for that matter, ALL projects are selected. I assume this is because Aperture sees the projects as all newly created because of the recent import. But when I check the project properties the correct range of dates is listed.
Is there any way, other than manually sorting, to have Aperture sync projects like iPhoto did albums?
Thanks!
Kevin

I've experienced the exact same issue when I moved from iPhoto to Aperture last month. Here are the steps to recreate:
1. Import your iPhoto library to Aperture, copying the photos into Aperture itself
2. Open iTunes and attach your iOS device
3. Go to your iOS device in iTunes and click on the "Photos" tab
4. Check "Selected projects, albums and faces", and select "projects from the last 6 months"
What should be included are projects with photos from the last 6 months. However, since the Aperture import created all new projects for each Event it imported from iPhoto, iTunes sees all projects as being from the last 6 months.
I've rebuilt the Aperture library by holding Option+Command when opening Aperture, that didn't work. I even wrote a script to manually fix the project dates in ApertureData.xml using the dates from iPhoto. While that works temporarily, opening Aperture eventually overwrites the project dates with the incorrect recent ones.
There is no way inside Aperture that I can find to change a project's creation date. The only thing close is right clicking on a project and clicking "Project Info". If I do that, they show the correct dates (i.e. photos from 1972 have a project date of 1972).
This problem is seriously annoying and makes syncing photos to my iPhone essentially impossible without manually selecting albums. Apple, any input here is appreciated!

BB Link not finding Outlook data for Sync

On my old computer the Contacts/Calendar sync between Outlook and the BB Q5 worked very well via BB Link.
On the new computer when I try to configure the Contacts/Calendar in BB Link the only account offerred is "Windows Contacts". There is no reference to Outlook, even though it is installed and working.
I have tried deleting and reinstalling BB Link on the new computer, and rebooting. I have clicked "Remove Device" on BB Link on the old computer.
The Outlook *.pst file is located in the same directory on the new computer as it is on the old computer.
How can I get BB Link on the new computer to find Outlook so I can configure it?
Blackberry Q5
Software Release 10.2.1.2012
OS Version 10.2.1.2141
(identical numbers on both BB Link and the Q5)
New Computer
Windows 7 Professional Service Pack 1 64 bit
Blackberry Link 1.2.3.23
MS Office Outlook 2013 32 bit
part of Microsoft Office Home And Business 2013
Old Computer
Windows XP Professional Version 2002 Service Pack 3 32 bit
Blackberry Link 1.2.3.23
MS Office Outlook 2007 SP3
Thank you for any help you can provide.

Just wanted to give an update. After a completely unsuccessful attempt with Creative's customer service telephone help, I decided to completely uninstall the software and reinstall it. I carefully double checked the options when reinstalling and noticed mine defaulted to Outlook Express, which I have on my machine but don't use. I changed the default to Outlook and made sure all the proper boxes were marked and it does work now. That would be my recommendation to the others for whom it is not working. Beyond that, you could have other issues.

HT204053 How long does it take for iCloud to upload data for syncing?

I started iCloud over 6 hours ago and yet the progress bar still show 5GB out of 5GB being available. Should I be turning this thing on somwhere or does it automatically upload the info to the cloud so I can access it. If so, how long does that take? Is 6+ hours a normal wait? I really just want to update my bookmarks so I don't need much space but they don't show as being available.
Humph!

Any bookmarks that are synced by iCloud do not use up any of your 5 GB free storage space. What other type of data are you expecting to see there.

Won't sync calender with mobileme "inconsistent data error message"

I have tried about everything that I can think of but can't seem to solve this problem.
I have a new Macbook Pro and have been using mobileme and ical for some time now. I can't get my Macbook Pro to sync with mobileme ical. It does sync with the address book, but when it gets to the ical portion it tries and then reports "can't sync due to inconsistent data on this computer. Correct data and resync calender".
I have no idea what the "inconsistent data" is. My computer gets its time from apple.com and the time/date is correct. What is the inconsistent data. My calender and schedule is a critical issue. Please help.

Errors in syncing can happen for all sorts of reasons - loss of network connectivity, for instance - and it might be necessary to reset the synced data from a reliable source. It's not talking about deleting anything - unless you have data on your new computer that you need to retain.
The document says that if you have this problem on your new machine, you probably need to overwrite that local data with data from MobileMe.
Personally, I've never lost any data with dotmac or MobileMe, so my experience is it can be relied on. I do, however, keep backups of all my data as well.

ICal wont sync due to inconsistent data

I get an error message saying... Calendars could not be synced due to inconsistent date. Confirm that your computers data is valid *+(not sure how to do this)+* then reset Calendars on .Mac in system preferences. *+( I have done this and had no luck)+*
I have also gone into isync and reset my sysc history and then re-synced... having all my computer data be replaced by the .Mac data. i get the same error.
I have 3 machines that should all be synced. I have just done a clean install on all machines in the following order:
a mac mini, a Powermac G5, and my Macbook. The macbook is the problem machine. the other 2 systems are synced perfectly.
Any advice?

Dude,
Thanks!!!
I did two clean installations on my 2 MBPs to leopard starting Friday night and Finishing tonight. I opted to not migrate data because I wanted to leave all my messy Tiger stuff and start again.
My first MPB must be the dominant one on .Mac because
MBP-2 >> .Mac >> MPB-1 didn't work .. if it weren't for your reply I wouldn't have tried the other way around and would have just given up until next weekend.
Thanks.

Address Book won't sync with MobileMe - inconsistent data!

I recently began getting 'Inconsistent Data' messages when I sync with MobileMe for my Address Book. I have always had an auto sync and never had this issue. I am told to reset the MobileMe data from another computer - which I have tried to do but with similar error results.
My most recent data is on MobileMe...I have so far failed to sync this data set with what's on my Mac Platforms.
I have tried to resort to merge data or erase data on this computer from the sync options dialogue box, but still end up with "inconsistent data. Try resetting your data on MobileMe".
I'm afraid that if I did that, then I will lose all my current data on MobileMe - which is the most recent, since most of my input for my contacts is made directly from my iPhone or iPad (both of which are syncing correctly).
Anybody have any ideas?

I have the exact same problem but have not been able to get my computers to sync with contacts although my iphone and Ipad are working perfectly. I tried deleting all my contacts in both mobileme and locally and tried to sync but was unsuccessful and still get the inconsistent data message. I hope someone can help us.

The genius bar technicians can check your MBP for possible hardware problems and specific software issues that you may have. The diagnosis will be free. Any extensive repairs will not be free.
If you have minor software problems, you essentially will have to deal with them yourself. Examine these two comprehensive documents for possible problem definition and solutions. If you encounter problems that you are unable to cope with, start a new discussion and there will be persons willing to assist you in solving them.

I use a Win7 PC with iCloud and Outlook 2010 for syncing my calendar and contacts. I can enter data in my Outlook Calendar and it will appear in iCloud, but data entered in iCloud does not sync back to Outlook. ICloud syncs to my iphone fine both ways.

I use Win 7 PC with iCloud and Outlook 2010 for syncing my Contacts and Calendar. They have stopped syncing...mostly.
Now, appointments I enter on my local Outlook (iCloud) Calendar goes up to iCloud fine. But, data I enter on iCloud directly does not come down to my local Outlook iCloud Calendar. If I reboot the computer, the iCloud data shows up.
Also, Contacts I try to enter on my Outlook (iCloud) Contacts goes up to iCloud fine, but does not show up in my local iCloud Contacts.
All syncing works with my iPhone.
I have signed out of iCloud on PC. I have stopped syncing and re-started. No change.
I have an .aplzod folder for iCloud. I have a separate Earthlink.net.pst email account in Outlook and a me.com.pst Outlook email account (which I don't actually use) listed under Data Files.
Any help would be appreciated. Curious that Outlook will upload to iCloud but not receive downloads unless I reboot. However, rebooting does not download the missing Contacts.

Hi Jim!
You've started off with some good troubleshooting steps, so let's see if we can take this a little further and figure out what the issue is with your iCloud contacts and calendars. I have two articles here that will help you troubleshoot this issue a little further, but the troubleshooting steps for both articles are exactly the same, so I will lay those out for you here:
Note: When using iCloud Control Panel 2.0 and later, iCloud Calendar event descriptions in Outlook 2010 do not support text formatting (bold, italics, or underline), HTML, images, or attachments. The contextual (right-click) menu has also been disabled.
If you are having trouble with a PC (with Outlook 2007 or 2010) and iCloud Calendar, try each of these steps, testing after each to see if the issue is resolved:
Verify that you are using a Windows configuration that is supported by iCloud. For more information, see iCloud system requirements.
When enabling Calendars in the iCloud Control Panel, part of the setup process is to copy your Calendars data from the default Outlook ".pst" file to iCloud, and then remove the Calendars from the ".pst" file by placing them in the Deleted Items folder in Outlook. The Calendars data is then stored in the iCloud data set within Outlook so that changes can be pushed to and from Outlook by iCloud. Be sure you are looking for your data within the iCloud dataset within Outlook after enabling Calendars in the iCloud Control Panel. The deleted files can be seen by viewing Deleted Items within your Outlook Folder List. This is not iCloud removing your data; iCloud simply copies your data into the iCloud data set and then removes the local Calendars data by placing it in the Deleted Items folder.
Make sure your computer is online. Attempt to view www.apple.com and iCloud.com. If you can't connect to the Internet, your iCloud calendars and events will not update in Outlook. Click here for more information about troubleshooting your Internet connection.
Open a secure website to test if you are online as is necessary for iCloud Calendar. This also tests if the ports 80 and 443 are accessible. Outlook requires port 443 access to iCloud in order to push and pull updates to and from the iCloud Calendar servers.
Verify that your iCloud member name is entered into the iCloud Control Panel pane. See iCloud Setup for more information about setting up iCloud on Windows.
Completely close and reopen the iCloud Control Panel.
If you recently made changes in Outlook and they are not moving to your other devices or vice-versa, click the Refresh button in Outlook.
Turn iCloud Calendar off and back on:
Close Outlook.
Open the Windows Control Panel:
In Windows 8, move the pointer to the upper-right corner of the screen to show the Charms bar, click the Search charm, and then click the iCloud Control Panel on the left.
In Windows 7 and Vista, choose Start menu > All Programs > iCloud > iCloud.
Remove the checkmark in the checkbox next to Mail, Contacts, Calendars & Tasks, and click Apply. Wait a few seconds, then replace the checkmark, and click Apply.
Open Outlook and test to see if the issue has been resolved.
Ensure the iCloud Outlook Add-in is active within Outlook.
Outlook 2010:
Open Outlook 2010.
Click the File menu.
Click Options in the left panel of the Outlook window.
Click Add-Ins in the left panel of the Outlook Options window.
Look at the list of add-ins beneath "Active Application Add-Ins" and verify that the "iCloud Outlook Add-in" is listed.
For Outlook 2007, follow these steps to verify the iCloud Outlook Add-in is active
Open Outlook 2007.
From the Tools menu, choose Trust Center.
Select Add-ins from the left column.
Look at the list of add-ins beneath "Active Application Add-Ins" and verify that the "iCloud Outlook Add-in" is listed.
For additional information about managing Add-ins with Microsoft Outlook, see this Microsoft support document.
Restart your computer. This may sound simple, but it does reinitialize your network and application settings and can frequently resolve issues.

Can I choose a different backup date / sync date for my iPad?

I attempted to sync my iPad this morning with my computer. During the sync process, I received a message that iTunes was no longer available. I disconnected my iPad. When I attempted to turn it on, it would not power on. All I could see was the picture of the iTunes logo and a USB cord. I reconnected my iPad to the computer. My only option after that was to restore my iPad to factory settings. The message I received was that my computer had no backup data for my iPad. I restored to factory settings. Now, I have no files, photos, games, etc on my iPad. Is ther a way to resync my iPad with iTunes using a previous date?

My iPad did the same thing. I accendently disconnected it while it was updating. Now it won't turn on and it tells me I have to restore it. I don't want to loose the pictures. Did you get an answer?
