IPhone 3GS will not sync calendars because the sync server failed.   Just installed Outlook 2010.  Is there a fix for this?

My iPhone 3GS could not sync calendars to the iPhone because the sync server failed to sync the iPhone.    Just installed Outlook 2010.   Is there a fix for this?

I am simply lookig for some help not an argument.  I am not an RF specialist however have setup a few wireless networks in my tenure at Wynn Resorts.  I fully agree that wireless networking is an art and a science however the powers that be in Network Land have toughted wireless networking is the easiest and quickest way to get two computers to talk with one another.  As I previously said I have already turned one (1) MBP in for this problem and Apple decided to replace it because they could not fix the problem with my particular MBP.  This MBP was running Leopard when the problems started
I am having a hard time believeing that there are several other devicces in my home that depend on a wireless network to operate and my MBP is the only one having an issue.  I took this a step further and decided to see what would happen if I tried to connect wirelessly via Fusion.  In Windows 7 I am able to print and scan to my hearts content without any issues.  I am able to browse the internet as much as I want.  I close Fusion and try to connect to my printer via wireless and nothing.
In order to get Apple to help do I need to get a Network Analyzer and capture packets when I have these problems?  Out of the 1000 + posts is there a consolidation of which answer is the best?  BTW I am accessing the internet via a wireless connection using Fusion and Windows 7.
In response to Linc's comments, I will look at the router specifications however I did not qualify that these devices are not using the wireless connection at the same time.  Right now I would guess there are maybe two (2) or three (3) at the most that are actively transmitting / receiving information. --  Thanks

    Activation issues are almost always the result of a device that has been hacked or jailbroken.  If that is the case, no support can be provided here.
    The other possible issue is a device running the iOS7 Beta.  If that is the case, and you are a developer, sign into the developers forums for assistance.  If that is the case and you are not a developer, try google.

    Hey Tlabounty,
    Thanks for the question. I understand you are experiencing issues with the microphone on your iPhone 5. To troubleshoot this issue, you may find the information in this article helpful:
    iPhone: Microphone issues
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts5183
    Note that speakerphone and regular calls utilize seperate microphones on the device. It sounds like you have isolated the issue. Furthermore, if you determine that the issue is hardware related, the following resource may help you get started with the service process:

  • My macbook fell off the couch and now everything on the display is double and slightly transparent. Is there a fix for this other than getting it replaced?

    My macbook fell off the couch and now everything on the display is double and slightly transparent. Is there a fix for this other than getting it replaced?

    Only an Apple Store or an authorized Apple Service Provider can determine if a repair is economically justifiable. It may be as simple as a dislodged display cable.

  • IPhone 4S could not be activated because the activation server is temporarily unavailable

    If you got the "scary" message that you could not activate iPhone 4S neither by Wi-Fi or iTunes, I want to share my experience:
    I decided to reset my iPhone 4S, and used "Erase All Content and Settings" under the reset menu (Settings/General/Reset), I was hoping that the erasing just does that, but for me the nightmare started!
    I was taken to the activation screens, and begun with the welcome one, choose language, choose location services (later on it also disappears) and selecting Wi-Fi and/or iTunes for activation.
    I chose a Wi-Fi network the process started, and gave me a message that it will take about three minutes to activate iPhone, few minutes later a screen with this message appears: "Your iPhone could not be activated because the activation server is temporarily unavailable."
    Then, I decided to try the activation using iTunes…
    Using iTunes, after few minutes, it shows the following message: "We could not complete your iTunes Store request. The iTunes Store is temporarily unavailable. Please try again later."
    I tried several times in both ways, trying 4 different Wi-Fi networks and 3 different computers in the whole process, and I was going desperate! I started to find out some info about this trouble over the Internet, and guess what? I was not alone! But I did not find any answer or solution either!
    Finally, I joined Apple Support Communities, and started searching with no good luck at all, until I found (many hours later)  this old (2009) solution:
    +Do a DFU recovery:+
    +1. Open iTunes.+
    +2. Connect the iPhone+
    +3 Press both the home and sleep/wake buttons until the Apple icon appears (ignore the red slider if it shows).+
    +4. Continue pressing the home button alone until iTunes sees your phone in recovery mode.+
    +5. Follow the prompts to restore the iPhone.+
    (THANKS A LOT!!! modular747 and Easily Easy, you saved me!!!)
    Then I suggest everyone to use this, of course it will erase everything, but you may be able to recover your data from your last backup, or you can also choose to configure iPhone as a new cell phone.
    The process took me about 92 minutes, but it was worth it, now I own an unlocked iPhone 4S (it was an AT&T when I purchased from Apple Store in November) and is working perfectly!
    Hope it is useful for all of you facing this trouble!
    Good luck and enjoy your iPhone then!

    I tried the process and was happy to note that there was some process that I managed to start because the process did start ...
    However to my disappointment,  landed back at the same status which says
    We're sorry, we are unable to continue with your activation at this time.
    Please try again later, or contact customer care
    I was using a GEVEY sim unlock with iOS 4.1 since (almost) last 2 yrs now in India on Vodafone. But as Apple designed it, there were several apps including Whatsapp, Facebook, Gmail and LinkedIn that stopped functioning due to the iOS updates and the subsequent (I guess 'mandatory' App updates). Finally yesterday I thought of updating to the iOS 6. As soon as I did that, I have been left with no choice but to see the above message.
    The process by jhidrowoh starts corectly but iTunes doesnt give you the option of restore only ... it is forcefully clubbed with update and the button that is displayed in the dialog box that appears on pressing 'Restore' in teh recovery mode, shows 'Restore and Update' and as soon as the iPhone is restored, it automatically updates the iOS as well to iOS 6 and hence leaves you hanging in the stale situation.
    Guys ... Need the data desperately ... Can anybody please help???

  • ITunes could not sync contacts because the synch server failed to synch....

    I have a laptop running Windows 7 (professional edition) 64 bit using Outlook 2010 and I get this same daggone message every time I try to synch contacts, calender, or notes (all Outlook 2010)...."iTunes could not synch contacts to the iPhone because the synch server failed to sync the iPhone."
    I called Apple's tech "support" and they said unapologetically that iTunes doesn't work with Outlook 2010. ***!?! And further that the solution was to use Outlook 2003 or 2007. And gave NO indication that any solution was in the works.
    QUESTION: Does anyone have a SANE solution that doesn't require a degree in Star Trek to implement to this exact problem? I know the problem is widespread so please only respond if you are having the exact same problem. Otherwise the variable make the feedback meaningless. Thanks in advance!!!

  • Apps won't install/update on my iPhone 4S (ios 6.01) says installing and then just stops!? Is there any fix for this?

    Okay so basically this morning (20th November 2012) I turned on my iPhone and went onto the App Store to check for app updates which I do every morning, and there was an update for the Wikipedia app and another app, however... When I tried to update these apps, the password conformation box came up as usual and then the message saying the app was installing popped up. But this message disappeared instantly and nothing happened. When I try to download apps from the App Store, the exact same problem keeps happening. Sometimes after two or three tries an app will install but only occasionally. I have tried rebooting my iPhone but with no luck. I have over 11gb of memory left on my iPhone and my Internet connection is strong enough so I'm completely confused! Does anyone know a possible reason for this or maybe even a working fix... Also knowing someone else has this problem would be nice :)
    Look forward to some responses :)

  • My iPhone 3GS will not turn on past the loading apple

    On Saturday night my phone was on and working. I plugged it in and went to bed, when I woke up Sunday morning the screen was black except for the apple that pops up when it is starting to turn on. I reset it with the sleep and home buttons (too many times to count) and have even tried to hold the home key and plug it in to the USB to restore it. The problem with that is I have never connected it to my iTunes on my computer before. I use iTunes on my phone and plug my phone up to download my pictures every now and then (of which I will lose a couple of weeks of my 6 month old.. but thank goodness for FB!). Apple will only help me if I pay and ATT tol me to clean my SIM card with an eraser which got the battery to pop up on the main screen, but as soon as I plug it in the same apple screen pops up! PLEASE HELP!!

  • When I go to a signin page of a website the remember passwrd button will not allow me to click on it in Firefox 11, the button pops up but is not active. the same site works fine in chrome. Is there a fix for this?

    am running win 7 64 pro - tried going back to firefox 10 with same results. all the tools options are set to remember passwords

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

    It is possible that there is a problem with the files key3.db and signons.sqlite that store the encrypted names and passwords in Firefox.<br />
    Rename the files key3.db and signons.sqlite in the Firefox profile folder.<br />
    You can add .old to the file names (key3.db.old and signons.sqlite.old) or move them to another folder to make it possible to undo the action.<br />
    You need to set a new Master Password after renaming or deleting key3.db and all currently saved passwords are lost.<br />

  • My new iPhone 4GS won't switch songs when playing music. It just plays the same song over and over again. Is there a fix for this?

    When I try to play music on my phone, it won't switch songs -- just plays the same song over and over again. This is true whether shuffle is turned on or not. How do I make this stop? This phone is brand new!
