Is it possible to sync app folders across 2 iphones?

I have 2 iPhones (because I need two numbers and because one is a company phone).
I have a lot of apps installed on both phones, and I've spent quite a bit of time organising them into thematic folders. Ideally, I'd like to have the same folder layouts on both phones, but this is a purely manual process right now.
I'm shortly going to replace my personal 4S with a 6, so I'm trying to see how I can ensure all the apps on the 4S appear on the 6, in their folders and pages.
Any ideas?
Gareth

You can try this:

  • Was wondering if it is possible to sync the folders in mac mail on my imac to my mac book pro rather than recreating them

    was wondering if it is possible to sync the folders in mac mail on my imac to my mac book pro rather than recreating them

    There are two standard protocols for receiving email, POP and IMAP. In the POP (Post Office Protocol) when messages are "read" by your email client (Mail) they are downloaded and stored on the reading computer and deleted from the POP server. When you are using IMAP (Internet Message Access Protocol) the messages remain on the IMAP server until they are deleted. IMAP was created for exactly the situation you are trying to achieve. For example Apple's iCloud (formerly me.com, formerly mac.com) uses IMAP protocol. So whether I access my email on my Mac, my iPhone, my iPad, or via webmail I have access to all the files in all the various mailboxes automatically because they are all seeing and using the same online mailboxes. If I delete a message on any of the varioius devices it is deleted on all of the various devices.
    Whether you can use IMAP protocol or not depends on your email host and whether they have an IMAP server or not. Many ISPs do not offer IMAP because they do not want to bear the expense of the additional disk space required to store the IMAP messages. As I mentioned before Apple's free email service is by default IMAP. Google Mail offers a somewhat non-standard IMAP service. It works with Apple's email client, Mail, but it is just a bit "different".
    Personally I resisted using IMAP for years. Largely because I had always used POP and was comfortable with it. Once I got an iPhone and needed to synch my email between my computer and iPhone I realized IMAP was "the only way to go."

    Need to sync apps from my friends iphone to my ipad using itunes. How can be that done?Please advise.

    Well first you need to sync your iPhone 4 with your Mac/PC so that it will transfer all your music, apps, podcasts, etc. Then sync your iPod Touch and the media you selected during the sync should be there on your iPhone. If you have difficulty in transferring media from iPhone to your computer, try softwares like TransCopy. They will help in transferring data from your iphone to your computer. Dont forget to check that all the transferred data is in the iTunes media folder so that the iTunes can locate the files. Link to Transcopy software :

  • Is it possible to sync my email on my iPhone with the email on my Mac.

    Is it possible to sync my email on my iPhone with the email on my Mac. I have a hotmail account as well as a Uni email account and when I read emails on my phone, I would like it to update my emails on my mac so that Im not deleting or reading the emails twice?

    This forum is for questions from those managing sites on iTunes U, Apple's service for colleges and universities to post educational material in the iTunes Store. You'll be most likely to get help with this issue if you ask in the general iTunes forums.
    Answering quickly, though, no, iTunes will not natively sync with non-Apple products. There may be workarounds, though. Ask in the iTunes forums.

  • Lightroom CC syncing and deleting across Mac, iPhone, and iPad Lightroom apps

    I have searched for nearly an hour for some answers and find the Lightroom support sections massively confusing, even contradictory (example here:  Adobe Lightroom on mobile FAQ In one answer it says that "Lightroom on mobile syncs original JPEG and PNG files that originate from your mobile device in the Creative Cloud" and in another question right below it says "Since Lightroom on mobile does not store your original image files, but instead syncs Smart Previews").  I need some basic questions answered around how these various platforms inter-operate [BTW, I am running latest OS and App versions across the board]:
    1) Do images taken with my iPhone automatically get uploaded to Creative Cloud (CC) or not and are they at full resolution? [Seems like they sync once I open the app, but not sure of resolution.  Would be good to know what is supposed to trigger the syncing, e.g., opening the app, taking the picture, etc.]
    2) Once an image is uploaded to CC from the phone, and I can see it in Lightroom desktop, are changes made to the image from either device's version of Lightroom automatically synced, i.e., I will see the changes made from any device on any other device the next time I log into CC from that device? [It seems like this is the way it works, but again not sure]
    3) Assuming the whole image is uploaded intact from the phone to the CC, if I delete the image in the Apple Photos app, will that in any way affect the CC cloud image?  I am not deleting it from within any Lightroom app at this point -- just the native IOS app. [Does not appear to be in any way connected -- which is both good and bad -- must delete in multiple places now]
    4) If I delete the photo in the CC from the desktop, does it delete the native photo on the phone as well, or do I need to delete it in both places to get rid of it entirely? [It would seem that when I delete the photo from the Lightroom iPhone app, after it has been synced, it does not delete it from the Lightroom desktop version -- I still see it there]
    5) I assume videos taken with the phone are not uploaded -- is that right? [They are not loaded to the CC as best as I can tell]
    6) Do the iPhone photos that get uploaded to CC end up only as preview-like images on the desktop version of Lightroom, or is the entire original resolution image downloaded to the desktop?  If it is not downloaded, how do I export a full resolution, modified image from Lightroom desktop (or from the iPhone for that matter)?
    7) I am not seeing any of the 25,000+ photos stored on my desktop version of Lightroom getting synced to the cloud -- isn't supposed to sync a preview image, and if so, how do I enable that?  What happens to changes to that preview image made from the phone -- do they get made back on the desktop version of the image through Lightroom?
    Thanks for the help.  I wish Adobe made this clearer up front so as to avoid any accidental deletions and to ensure the products are interoperating the way they should.

    Let me try to answer your questions.
    1)
    collections created within the Lr Mobile app will be automatically synced to the back-end. You can add photos manually from your camera roll or enable a collection for "Auto Add". With that all future camera shots will be automatically imported to Lr Mobile and synced
    2)
    correct. changes will be synced from Lr Mobile to Lr Desktop - back&forth
    3) local camera roll deletion is not connected to the Cloud back-end. But be carefull that the import/sync is finished before you trigger that.
    4)
    as answerd before. the cloud back-end is not connected to the device camera roll
    5)
    video is not supported yet
    7)
    original resolution images will be  downloaded to Lr Desktop. Preview images will be shown in the Lr Web view Adobe Lightroom
    8)
    when you create a collection within Lr Desktop and add your photos you would like to sync, then you can enable this collection for sync. As soon your are signed-in and start the sync (via the top left activity panel) you will notice a little checkbox beside the collection. When you check this sync start to run. Lr Deskop generates smart previews and uploads these to the back-end (plus thumbnail previews + meta-data). When you open up Lr Mobile app and you would like to make an edit, the Lr Mobile app loads the smart preview form the back-end and syncs back the meta-data or edit setting.
    Hope that helps you to start.

  • HT1977 Is it possible to sync apps from two different iTunes stores?

    I have an Australian and US iTunes account and I've bought apps from both but when I try to sync them to my iPhone only the US apps sync. Is it just not possible to sync from both?

    As far as I know, you can only access the iTunes store of the country you are currently in.

  • HT1766 iPhone 4s; Is it possible to sync apps to icloud without using the touchscreen?

    I've been using my iphone 4S with a cracked screen for over three months now (it fell on a tile floor hitting the top front corner first, 5 weeks after I got it) without any issues. Tonight I dropped it from a height of about 8 inches and the part of the face that was cracked made first contact with something that was on a table I was standing at, jamming it further into the phone. When I picked it up I noticed a small piece had also fallen out near an intersection of the cracks. The touchscreen is now completely black.
    My question: Is it possible to sync my apps to the icloud without using the iphone touchscreen? I plan I getting a new phone and had my icloud setup to sync my mail, contacts and calendars. I've been able to download all my pictures and video to my computer.

    Getting/reinstalling the apps isn't a problem. I'm only concerned with the data that is stored within them. For instance I have a mileage tracker I've been using but haven't uploaded the data from the phone to back it up anywhere. I'd like to do that before getting a new phone but I can't see what i'm doing due to the screen not working.
    The phone is actually still working and I've been able to use Siri to make calls and send texts without a working screen. The screen still accepts inputs apparently so if I could return settings to factory settings I could theoretically use another phone side by side to show me exactly where I need to touch and when to back up my applications to iClould.
    Going forward, I actually had ordered another case before my accident as my current case doesn't provide enough protection. It'd be nice if Apple actually made an iphone that didn't need such band-aids for normal usage.

  • Keeping app folders across devices?

    Is there a way to keep my apps organized into the same folders across devices (ipad, iphone 4, itouch?). I can't seem to figure out an easy way to do it.
    thanks.

    The problem here is that the Macs and the iDevices use different versions of the photos.
    We need to know your workflow too. Is there one main library? or do you import to any/and all at different time? Are you shooting with a camera? Phone? Both?

  • Is it possible to sync numbers between iPad and iPhone and mac

    Is it possible to sync Numbers between iPhone and iPad and IMac.  I work in a school and want to keep test scores for my class in the one place without having to manually update the spreadsheets each time I enter scores.
    Thanks in advance
    Conor 

    Yes, Numbers syncs (very well) via iCloud.  You need to activate Numbers iCloud sync on all of your devices.
    On the Mac, go to System Preferences > iCloud and make sure Documents & Data is checked.  Also click the Options... button next to Documents & Data and check Numbers.app.
    On each iOS device, go to Settings > iCloud > Documents & Data > and turn on Numbers. Also go to Settings > Numbers and turn on Use iCloud.
    After you've got things working, it's best to close down the Numbers document on one device before you use it on another.

  • How can I sync apps from Mac to iPhone and visa versa.

    Hi,
    Firstly I'm not having any problems syncing apps to my iPhone.
    I'm very OCD and would like to have it so that If I install an app onto my Mac, it sync to my iPhone. And then if I delete it from my Mac and plug my phone in to sync, it will delete it from my iPhone.
    Basically I want my iMac to be the hub of the apps, so everything I see on my iMac will be on my phone.
    Let me know if you have a solution for this!
    Tim

    As far as installing is concerned, if you install an iPhone app on your Mac and sync your iPhone to your Mac using either USB or WiFi the app will be installed on your phone. You can also go (on the phone) to Settings/iTunes & App Store and turn on Automatic Downloads for apps. Then whenever you buy or download an app on your computer or another Apple device it will automatically be installed on your iPhone.
    For uninstalling, there are 2 ways to uninstall; one is on the phone (which you said you don't want to do) and the other is to connect the phone to iTunes, click on it, then on Apps, and uncheck any apps you don't want on the phone, then sync.

  • 11.1 won't let me sync apps or music from iPhone 4s.

    Here's the error I get when I try and sync apps/music to or from my iPhone: http://imgur.com/S7ahnIV
    I tried authorizing and deauthorizing my computer.
    I don't know what else to do.
    Please help.

    Do you have Sync Apps selected under the Apps tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes with your chosen apps selected below and Sync Music selected under the Music tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes with your selections below?
    Any error message provided?

  • Syncing App IDs across servers -- Best Practice?

    This is prompted by a comment chrisstephens made in the thread at non-existent applications in non-existent workspaces reserving app id's
    Our developers are convinced that the application id's between our dev + staging
    + production environments need to be synchronized.Our team also keeps our dev, test, and prod server app IDs synchronized -- for instance, the Widget Reporting App is always app # 38 on all three servers. For us, it's not something we see as REQUIRED, but it is convenient, and a general sanity check. If the numbers didn't sync, it seems it would be all too easy to get values mixed up and accidentally field an app to the wrong place (possibly overwriting some other application).
    What is the community's opinions on this? Would you consider this an Apex Best Practice? Just a habit for some groups? Or overly rigid thinking?
    (I personally fall in the Best Practice group.)

    One good reason to keep them the same is so that there are no differences between what is tested in one environment and what is deployed in another. Case in point, just last week someone demonstrated that an application's authentication scheme failed when the application ID was changed from xxx to xxxxxxxxx (a longer string of digits). Of course this was due to a previously unknown bug, but that's what testing should reveal.
    Another good reason is to make it possible to export application components (pages, etc.) from one database (say, dev) and install them into an application in another database (say, prod). This is not possible if the application IDs are different.

  • How to sync apps folders from iPhone to iPad?

    I would like to recreate the same folders for my 188 apps on my new iPad mini as they are on my iPhone 4. Doing it manually would be very long and I don't know if after all this work, the next sync will wipe out the folders (as the first sync did).

    Hi Doc,
    I have just been on the phone to Apple for over 2 hours ! Both devices were already on IMAP . It turned out that one particular folder was a rogue and did not sync between desktop, iPhone and iPad. I created a new folder dragged every email into it from my desk top , deleted the original folder and all emails in that folder are now synched. Even Apple was baffled but the problem is now resolved so thank you for your assistance .
    Regards,

  • Syncing Offline Folders Across Multiple Machines

    I have created several offline folders on my G4 laptop and G5 desktop that I would like to synchronize and keep synchronized in the future. The folders are not smart folders. I would appreciate it if anyone can provide some direction on how to accomplish this task. The folders that currently exist on each machine have my archived email and they are not the same, i.e. they do not have the same data although some of them have the same folder name. I have a .mac account and am using the sync function to sync the main mailbox.
    I understand how to keep the online mailbox (name.mac.com) mailbox sync'd between machines but do not understand how to do the offline mailboxes.
    Thanks for taking the time to help.

    There is no way to automatically synchronize mail stored locally. Only mail stored on the server can be synchronized -- that's precisely what IMAP accounts are for. You can manually import a mailbox from one computer into the other and remove duplicates afterwards, or you can overwrite the entire contents of the Mail database on one computer with what's on the other.
