Ipad and iphone syncing problems results in lost work

Hello all,
Sorry if this is treated elsewhere but i couldnt quite find it. I got pages for the flexibility of being able to use both the ipad and iphone to work on the same document and it worked fine at first but now the iphone is having trouble syncing automatically. Now it asks me to resolve a conflict and choose between different versions of the document. I chose the one with the latest timestamp but it wasnt actually the latest version of the document from the ipad. When i went back to the ipad it didn't give any option except to click ok to accept the changes and so reverted my document to an earlier state. I lost all the work i did today and the undo button did nothing but go back to the last changes made to that earlier version of the doc.
I realize there is little hope for restoring my work. I use a webdav account to back up to but unfortunately hadnt done an upload today. From now on I'll be doing it every ten minutes but i really shouldn't have to.
Does anyone have any advice for this? Or at least an email to complain to the developers about their syncing procedure?

Looks like I had similar problem today. I was working on my MacBook on pages and then about an hour later I made some changes on my iPad. This morning it looks like I have to resolve a conflict of having two documents and I have to choose one.

How do I get my iPad and IPhone synced where if I delete an email off one it is deleted off the other device?

How do I get my iPad and IPhone synced where if I delete an email off one it is deleted off the other device? I can get all the Apps and music from one to the other but why won't the emails I delete off one not delete off the other? Is there anyway where I can make this happen?

As James says, make sure that you are using the IMAP servers for your email. You will need to check the help pages for your email provider to get the correct settings in all your devices. POP really doesn't fit the needs of todays mutiple access, always on internet, so you are better off moving to IMAP.

IBOOKS on iPAD and iPHONE Sync?

Hello -
Pretty simple: I have an iPad2 and iPhone 4S. iBooks on both. Recently just purchased my first two books via iBooks store on the iPad. I checked settings on both iPad and iPhone and I have sync turned ON. I have iCloud (not sure this matters). Why don't the books appear on my iPhone?
THANKS!
Gregg

The best way I found to sync PDFs in iBooks between all your IOS Devices and a Mac is to TICK the "Sync with this (Your iDevice) over Wi-Fi" setting which is found in the "Summery" when you open iTunes on your Mac and select your iDevice from the top let corner of your iTunes window or from the left side column in the Playlist amd Apply.

IPad and iPhone Syncing

Our family has three iPhones with the latest OS4 software. I am thinking of buying an iPad and I was curious if the three iPhones can be synced with the iPad if it is installed with the latest iTunes version. My intent is to eventually migrate completely off of my laptop and use only the iPad and iPhone. My photos, tunes and videos would reside permanently on the iPad. Thanks for your comments.

The ipad would sync to the laptop, just like any of the iPhones. It is not designed to be used without a computer. Any backups, software updates, etc, need to be done while tethered to a computer with your iTunes account installed on it.
CAN you use it on it's own after the initial sync? Sure. But if something happens to it (Hardware, software, stolen, <insert catastrophe here>) you will have no way to recover any of the data and will have to start from scratch all over again.
Can you sync the iPhones directly to the iPad? No, not at all.

IPad and IPhone synced to different PCs how do I get the same music on both devices? I used one PC to put CDs on ITunes but these don't appear on the phone which syncs to the Mac.

I have 1 ITunes account but my IPad is synced to a Windows PC to download CDs onto my IPad and the Iphone is synced to the Mac. I was hoping that the CDs I'd put on the IPad from the Windows PC would automatically appear on my IPhone when both these devices were sharing the same Wi-Fi at home. This didn't really work very well and I've been left with the CDs showing on the list on my phone but when I try to play them, the different tracks keep scrolling fast and not playing. I've tried deleting them from the IPhone, but they just seem to retreat to ICloud.
I've tried syncing the phone to the windows PC but this has just resulted in an error and I think this may be what has screwed the music up on my phone. I would just like to be able to listen to my CDs on my phone.
Has anyone come across this before and resolved it?
Thanks

Terminology check here. Do you really mean a "CD"? There's a difference in Cloud behavior between content from a physical CD you ripped (which only has Cloud content if you have iTunes Match) and an "album" you bought from the iTunes Store.
Read references for Home Sharing.
iTunes: How to share music and video - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2688 - about Music Sharing and Home Sharing
Home Sharing Support page - http://www.apple.com/support/homesharing/
iOS: Setting up Home Sharing on your device - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4557 - "With Home Sharing in iOS 4.3 or later, you can stream your entire iTunes library over your home Wi-Fi network from your Mac or PC right to your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch."
The above can get pretty complicated. You are probably best off by syncing both devices to a single library and/or updating the libraries on both computers to have the same content.

IPad and iPhone sync thru the cloud

I can't get my calendar on my iPad to sync with my iPhone anymore. When I first turned on the iCloud on both devices it worked but now unless I actually enter a calendar date directly into my phone it will not transfer to my iPad. I sync my phone to my outlook calendar and when I do this the new dates frommy computer appear in my phone but not on my iPad. It's the same for my contacts. Any suggestions?

If I am not mistaken that is how it is intended to work. Check in the calendars app on your iPhone and at the top how many calendars does it say it syncing. Also check your iPad for the same think. It could also be that on the iPad you are showing the outlook calendar. But, I'm pretty sure it only syncs iCloud calendars.

Why does apple ipad and iphone have problems with comcast?

We attempt to send pictures through our comcast wifi account and gets to about 90%and freezes. Have reset modem, and router, have turned off phone and reset it. Have switched to 4G then pictures will send. Only has problem when connected to wifi. As my ipad is wifi, I cannot send pictures at all with it.
Did not have this problem until iOS 6 update.
Any suggestions?

My iPad and other devices have no problems with Comcast, but I didn't get my WiFi router from them. If you did, your router may need a firmware update, or you may need to get a different model of router.
Regards.

Oh nice, there's a PassKeeper application for the iPhone and iPad. Simply install it and it should talk you through steps, otherwise their website is probably a great place to check.

My ical events showing up as "new events" on my ipad and iphone when synced with exchange?

I am running exchange 2010 and have my macbook, iPad and iPhone syncing to exchange. I noticed that lately after my lion upgrade it is changing the ical meeting events that I create on my macbook show up on my iPad and iPhone as "new events". All of the information entered into the event is gone. This is really frustrating and is starting to become a problem. I need to find a solution soon. Has anyone else experienced this issue or resolved this issue?

Maybe a fix in the works?

MS Outlook 2010 calendar not syncing with iPad and iPhone

My iPad and iPhone sync perfectly in iCloud. However, using MS Outlook 2010 Calendars they do not sync. I have deleted and reinstalled iCloud with my PC but still no results. Even though iCloud shows up in my Calendar, any additions or deletions in that Calendar do not show up on my iPhone or iPad. Can you help?

Hey oliroyal,
Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
First check your default services on the device under Options, Advanced Options, default services.
If the default services are configured correctly I would suggest try creating a new MAPI profile as outlined in this articlehttp://btsc.webapps.blackberry.com/btsc/KB02083 and then reconfigure the Desktop Software as shown herehttp://www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB17022
Thank you.

Why won't the folders in Mail sync consistently across my iMac, MacBook, iPad and iPhone?

Ok, this one is complex; here's the deal.....
I'm using a single Gmail account with Mail on an iMac, MacBook, iPad and iPhone, using Lion and iOS 5. The 4 respective 'Mails' are not synchronising consistently between each other. Here's what's going on:
Received messages are appearing in all 4 Inboxes.
If a message is deleted from any of the 4 Inboxes, it is deleted from all other Inboxes.
So far so good. But:
When I create a draft message, or delete a message from the Sent folder - iMac and Macbook sync with each other, and iPad and iPhone sync with each other, but each 'pair' won't sync with the other 'pair'.
But to complicate things further (and this is the one which is driving me up the wall), let's look at the Sent folder:
If I send a message from the iMac or Macbook, the message appears in all 4 Sent folders.
But if I send a message from the iPad or iPhone, those 2 devices will sync their Sent folders, but the message will NOT appear in the Sent folders of the iMAc or MacBook.
So what is going on there? I've spoken to numerous One-to-One staff and Apple technicians on the phone over the last 12 months, we've checked settings, I've deleted and then reinstalled the Gmail account on Mail - but no success. Please solve this for me!!

The reason I asked is because keying all devices synced is exactly what it is all about.
FYI, You need to use the Mail application, but you do NOT need to use an @me.com account. It support Gmail and other mail servers.

TS3988 Problem setting up e-mail on Mac, iPad and iPhone

I am having a major problem with my e-mai @me.com
1) I have a Mac running Mountain Lion;
2) The new iPad all up to date
3) An iPhone 4 also up to date.
iCloud e-mail on the web works perfectly, sending and receiving.
On my Mac, I was able to configure as an IMAP account, but not using the standard settings provided by OS
Both iPad and iPhone, while using the same and only Apple ID I have, do not recognize the default e-mail server.
Notes only work between iPad and iPhone. Notes on Mac never worked since installation. It says it cannot be setup at the moment and ask to do it later... and has been doing that in the last 15 days...
What should I do?

GOing by what others have posted, hotmail seems to be having issues. There may be not much for you do to but to wait it out. You can always try removing and then readding your account info.
