Ipad sync warning after replaced information

Hi I'm having this strange behaviour, which I would like to have an explanation for.
Ok: Steps to do:
1. Connect my iPad to my Macbook Pro and select replace all calender entries on the info tab.
2. Wait for "replacement" to finish.
3. Perform a conventional sync and wait for the popup message stating: There are "changes" to be made to my computers calendar (Usually just a few).
Can anyone explain to me, why this happens?

Ok. Let me clarify this a bit more. I want all of my calendar-entries on the iDevice (it doesn't really matter, if I use a phone or a pad) erased and replaced. So there is this option to replace all the data on the iOS-device. Sync runs through. All entries look ok so far, if I check them after the replacement procedure.
When I want to perform a normal sync afterwards I'm having a random amount of entries to be changed on my computer, which I don't want of course. (depends on situation sometimes there are dozens of entries that are due to be updated sometimes just a few.  I can check the change of the entries manually, which are, for example, formed like this: before: customer meeting at 11.05.13 8:00 note: / after: customer meeting at 11.05.13 note <empty>. So the only difference is the <empty> in the note field in this case. Sometimes it's a ringer notification, sometimes a rephrased time.
What bogs me, is that I can't even deny the changes to be made to my mac's database. I can only select, I want to sync later. Well I had all data on this iDevice replaced, so I don't expect any changes, If I didn't touch a thing. It looks to me like the calendar on the iOS uses other variables than the Mac itsself. 
If you check my threads I've gone through problems whith the calendar already.
Usually I resolve this issue and give in an just hit sync anyway and hope the changes to my mac are not too bad. Next syncs after are ok then.
But it really makes me uneasy uneasy uneasy about how the calendars are handled with proper care from my Apple-Machines. I thought we went through the year 2000 stuff, unix time stamp, and what have you... The worst thing is that I don't trust my machines anymore...
And I can't even say: No: my iPad entries are wrong - please use my mac's stuff.

  • Sync Outlook: Advanced: Replace information on this iPhone (how to set as default)

    Every time I sync Outlook with iTunes (iPhone 4s) I have to select -> Advanced -> Replace information on this iPhone, and then check Contacts and Calendar. I want this to be the DEFAULT action when I connect my iPhone. As it stands I have to turn on the "Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically" in Preferences so that I have a chance to turn on the Replace option in Info -> Advanced.

    Hi there Greg,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like you want to always replace content on your iPhone 5S with content from Outlook on your PC, to do this you’ll just have to Reset the Sync History in iTunes as shown below.
    Troubleshooting Sync Services on Windows with Microsoft Outlook 2003, Outlook 2007, or Outlook 2010 - Apple Support
    To reset sync history:
    Open iTunes.
    From the Edit menu, choose Preferences.
    Click the Devices tab.
    Click the Reset Sync History button.
    If the issue continues and you know all of the data is on the computer:
    Reset the Sync History again using the steps above.
    Select the device in iTunes and click the Info tab.
    Scroll down to the Advanced section, and under "Replace information on this iPhone/iPad/iPod touch" select Contacts or Calendars.
    Click Apply.

  • IPad sync hangs after changing Network Locations

    I have a problem where often after I change Network Locations, the next iPad sync will hang in Step 1 of 5 with the progress right under the "e" of Step.
    I have let it sit there for hours and it never progresses. I try to eject the iPad, it will never eject it.
    I have sort of a formula to recover from this.
    * I have to just disconnect the USB cable from the Mac.
    * I shut down iTunes.
    * I reboot the computer.
    * I try to power off the iPad by holding down both buttons.
    * It will hang for ever with the little spinning thing going in the middle of the screen.
    * I will hold down the both buttons again and it will finally power off the iPad.
    * I boot the iPad again.
    * I bring up iTunes on the Mac and connect the USB cable and let it try to sync.
    * This will fail the first time on Step 5 of 5 with the message "iTunes could not back up the iPad "My's iPad" because an error occurred. OK.
    * I click OK.
    * I eject the iPad.
    * I shutdown iTunes and bring it back up.
    * I plug the iPad back in to the MacBook Pro.
    Now the iPad will sync and continue to sync normally unless I change my network "Location". Once I change my Network Location there is some probability that iTunes and the iPad will get into this stuck condition.
    I've looked at the main console logs and All Messages. I don't see anything obvious.
    Is anyone else seeing this behavior?
    Does anyone have some hints about how to debug this?

  • "Replace  information on iPad" Mail accts next sync?

    When I first set up my partner's iPad2, I used her mail acct info within my Mac login acct. In order to now get it to sync with the same Mail acct but from her Mac area, we need to do MacItunes>iPad>Info:Advanced:"Replace information on this iPad √Mail Accounts" ("iTunes will replace the selected information from this computer").
    Now this could mean just the acct settings or all the mails too (ie. trash the ones on the iPad). I suspect the latter (and therefore will need to send all crucial mails across before I re-sync); can anyone confirm this?
    She also has a GMail acct which only sits on the iPad. I guess this needs setting up within her Mac area too? Advice on the best order of these steps?
    PS.(afterthought) I gather only IMAP (not POP) accts allow one to have folders in iPad Mail; does every ISP other mail in both or do I need to check with ours before we attempt this? Any threads to point me too.
    Thx

  • How do I adjust sync settings for ipad so that I can choose between merging chosse between merging information versus replacing information.

    Is there a way to adjust ipad 2 synce settings after the first time you synce your device?
    If I want to want to make sure that teh data on ipad matches that on my pc after syncing, should I choose merge data?
    Thanks for your help.

    OK, I found what seems to work. That is to open the actual ppt version of the download (not the one that had already been opened & saved in Keynote) in Open Office. So I had to open Open Office & then navigate to the file to open it so that it didn't open in Keynote.
    At a One to One training on Keynote where I asked for help with this today he noted that it showed that the presentation had been created in an older version of PowerPoint--apparently 2003 for Windows which could explain some of the issues.
    Opening it in Open office it displayed mostly ok.  There were 2 or 3 or so slides where I had to tweak horizontal lines between bullet points that had crept up so some where through the text rather than under it. So I just selected the lines & nudged them into position.
    Its not perfect & for some reason, some of the lines seem a hair thicker than others (which I guess I could go back & figure out how to use the line thickness tool to adjust, but think I will leave well enough alone for now).
    As near as I can tell, this seems to work about equally well doing this on the Mac side or in Parallels in Windows 7. So will stick with the Mac side.
    This allows me to run the slide show with me controlling when the different bullet points, etc display. It didn't have any exotic animations or transitions--just rather plain vanilla ones.

  • How do I set up itunes sync with outlook to "replace information on this iphone" only? I do not want to do a two way sync.

    I am tired of fighting sync incompatibilities between Outlook 2007 and I Tunes, and no longer want to do a two-way sync.
    I still want my Outlook contacts and calendar on my iPhone and use advanced setup in iTunes to "replace information on this iPhone" only.
    iTunes only offers the ability to do this on "the next sync only". Is there a way to set up iTunes to "replace information on this iPhone" every time I connect my phone?

  • ITunes movies no longer sync from Dell laptop or MacBook Pros (both authorized devices) to iPhone 6s or iPad Air 2s after configured at Apple store yesterday.  In the past I could see the movies in iTunes with the cover photo and sync.

    iTunes movies no longer sync from Dell laptop or MacBook Pros (both authorized devices) to iPhone 6s or iPad Air 2s after configured at Apple store yesterday.  In the past I could see the movies in iTunes with the cover photo and sync to the other devices but now there is a listing a movies with no cover photos and in fact if I try to view the movie on the MacBook Pro it cannot be found unless I download it.

    All I had to do was complain.  I synced my iPhone to the Windows machine, checked the other account at iTunes prompting (where no apps had shown up previously), reconnected the iPad, and 140 apps downloaded including the App Store.  I have no idea why.

    Hello Tonchee
    If you are seeing an Apple ID that is not yours, then you have purchased content on your iPad that is tied to that Apple ID. You would need to know that password or remove the content that is associated with that Apple ID.

    It's very possible that you did just as you suspect. One of the later Note file over wrote the one stored on your iPad when you synced.
    When one does a sync of their iPad a backup of the iPad is created first. If that backup was still available you might be able to find the Note file there. But more than likely, if you are letting the iPad and iPhones sync on their own over Wi-Fi you have over written that back up as well.

  • IPad Contacts corrupted - how replace?

    Due to an apparent syncing error, listings in my iPad Address Book were doubled and some even tripled and data jumbled from one contact in fields of another contact. No way to just delete some files since almost all had bad information.
    After clearing the entries in the iPad Address Book (thinking I could reinstate the information from the Mac), when I attempted to sync, I was warned that "syncing with the iPad would change more than 5% of the contacts on my computer with would change the Contacts on my Mac" which is not what is wanted.
    I can not see a way to move the 326 Address Book entries from the Mac (which is correct and backup has been done) to the iPad which is now completely blank of information. I can find nothing in Apple help or in the iPad manual to deal with this problem.

    Make a backup of your Mac Address Book (File, export, archive, I think)
    Set iTunes sync to 'replace contents of the iPad'
    Sync contacts via iTunes.
    That should do it
