Sync maps bookmark between iPad and iPhone

Hello
I would like to sync maps bookmark between my iPad 2 and iPhone 4
Is there a way to do that ?

There is actually a way via contacts, but not a convenient one.
You have to do it one by one for your existing bookmarks in Maps.
You need a Mac to seperate those "bookmark contacts" from your regular contacts.
I use this method now instead of the Maps bookmarks.
0. Make the necessary setting to sync your contacts with iCloud on your iOS devices (and your Mac if you want to use a "bookmark group")
1. Open a bookmark in Maps (or search for something) then click on the i-icon
2. Choose to put it in a new Contact (modify info as you like)
3. Add item for Notes with the text "bookmark"
This "bookmark contact" will now be synced through iCloud to your Mac and other iOS devices
I don't want my contacts to be cluttered with those "bookmark contacts", so I choose to create a seperate group
4. In addressbook on the Mac do a search for "bookmark"
5. select file --> New group from selection
6. after you've added additional "bookmark contacts" in Maps on your iPhone or iPad you have to search and select them and then drag them to your "bookmark group" in address book on the Mac

Is it possible to sync my mail folders/boxes between Mac mail and iPhone?

Is it possible to sync my mail folders/boxes between Mac mail and iPhone? ie. I get an email on my iphone but I also read it and store it On My Mac folders. Is there a way this can be set up 'same' on my iphone...then I would only need to read my mail one place? Same as my iPad...I'm tired of doing the same step 3 times ONLY because my folders are only on my MAC

IMAP is a mail protocol. Your email provider must support it (most regular ISPs do not). If your mail provider supports IMAP then when you create an account on the iPhone choose "IMAP" when prompted. You cannot convert a POP3 account to IMAP; you must delete it and re-create it. But first check to see if your provider supports it. Microsoft Exchange works similarly to IMAP, but has the added feature of "pushing" mail to your phone within seconds of it being received.
With IMAP and Exchange the master copy of all mail remains on the server until deleted. Your computer(s) and iPhone sync with the server, so all of your devices will show the same messages. When you delete from one the message will be removed from all with the next sync (or immediately for Exchange).

How to solve issue with strange iphoto events shown in itunes for sync IOS devices ? This issue is very old and not been fixed by apple... terrible

all softwares latest version january 2013.
I see in itunes many strange crazy iphoto events that in iphoto do not exist.
These vents are named as data and contains just few photos.
each event can be sync with IOS devices, but that event is not in iphoto !
It looks like miniatures... no way to solve this issue making all possible maintenance in iphoto library.
THis issue is very old, very terrible, people start to have doubts about iphoto as a reliable software.
Need a fix asap.
Apple please help!
I were with 2 hours at genius bar but nothing.
Genius told me apple have been informed and they are working on a solution..... this 4 months ago !!!
Need solution asap
THanks
Fabio

Apple aren't here. As you're the only person with this problem that I've seen on here, I would suspect that its more a local problem on your machine than something Apple need to fix.
Go to your Pictures Folder and find the iPhoto Library there. Right (or Control-) Click on the icon and select 'Show Package Contents'. A finder window will open with the Library exposed.
Look there for the iPod Photo Cache.
Trash it. Start iPhoto and try sync again.

Syncing notes, highlights, and bookmarks between iOS devices

Hi,
I've decided to digitize my technical library by purchasing ebooks from now on. The problem is which ebook format to go with. My ideal requirements would be to be able to purchase books from various sources and be able to read them both on my Mac and on iOS devices. Additionally, I want to be able to sync the highlights, bookmarks, and notes among all of these devices.
Currently, the real winner that satisfy all of these conditions is Amazon mobi format. The only problem is that I can only purchase books from Amazon if you go with this platform.
On the other hand, Apple iBooks is a close second here - the lack of a solution for a Mac is a problem, but I am hoping that Apple is working on the iBooks application for the Mac. The syncking of notes, highlights, and bookmarks among various iOS devices is a nice feature, and it does not require a tethered connection to iTunes - instead, these items they can now sync wirelessly among devices on the same iTunes account.
My question is if the syncing of notes, highlights, and bookmarks works only with ePub books purchased from the Apple's iBooks store or if this feature works with unprotected ePub books purchased elsewhere and loaded on iOS devices via the iTunes syncing feature. For example, most of the technical books I am going to be digitizing are Cisco books published by Cisco Press. As of late, most of their ebooks are available in the unprotected ePub format, and I would be using the iBooks app to read these books. So, if I were to purchase ebooks from Cisco Press, would I be able to to make a note in a book on one iOS device (e.g. iPad), and later see this note in the same book on my iPhone?
Thanks!

This page http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4059 says (I havn't tried it though) :
iBooks will automatically remember where you left off each time you close a book or return to your Home screen. Tap the bookmark icon in the upper-right corner to bookmark a specific page. Wirelessly sync your Bookmarks, Highlights, and Notes with your other devices using your iTunes Store account by tapping Settings > iBooks > Sync Bookmarks > ON.

When syncing iOS devices to iTunes, the memory allocations shown in iTunes are all over the place

There must be threads about this, but apologies for my inability to find any.
As the title says: I plug my iPhone or iPad into my iMac, and when I look at the memory allocation as displayed in iTunes, 6GB or whatever are free. Then I sync again, and suddenly 8GB are free. Sync again, and now 2GB are free - even though nothing has changed. I get this with both iOS devices.
Additionally, often what iTunes shows has no relationship to what the device says when I go into Settings: last week iTunes believed there were 0GB in Photos - because after all I had erased them! - but the iPad recorded 25GB, somehow.
Is this a known issue, or is something screwy with my system?
Thanks in advance!

Thanks, but that's not really the issue. I do manage it manually - I've got a lot of smart lists, smart photo albums, and so on, all set up to sync with the iOS devices.
The problem is that the iPhone/iPad memory, as displayed in iTunes when the device is plugged in, seems to be very inaccurate and variable. When I plug the iPhone or iPad in, iTunes tells me (for example) that, with current settings, 5GB will be free. It syncs, and then suddenly 2GB are free. I sync again - changing nothing, so there should be no change in memory allocation - and suddenly 6GB are free. Somehow, despite syncing no books at all, there's a bizarre 60MB "Book" that iTunes tells me is sometimes on the iPhone, and sometimes not. That little stretch of purple just suddenly appears some days.
At times it tells me it's too full and can't sync at all. So I wipe, for example, 6GB off the "too full" iOS device, and after doing that suddenly 10GB are free, so I put the 6GB back on no problem. And after I add that 6GB back on, maybe there are 8GB free, or maybe 2GB, or maybe 4GB. In my world, 10GB-6GB=4GB, but iTunes is using quantum arithmetic or something.
Wiping a lot of photos off was great fun. I had iTunes unsync and remove all photos - so, in that line at the bottom, all the photo memory allocation disappeared. Cool. Mission accomplished. Then I clicked to another tab in iTunes, and suddenly the photo memory jumped back up to 15GB. Looked back in the Photos tab - nope, I'd told it to sync no photos at all. Checked the iPhone itself: oh, neat. 25GB of photos, despite not syncing any. Eventually, after repeating the process several times, all the photos were eventually gone, but the whole process was bizarrely complicated.
Basically, when I plug the iPhone or iPad into iTunes, iTunes seems to have no idea what the memory allocation actually is - which occasionally makes syncing complicated.
It's not a giant issue, but it's quite annoying - and I'm wondering if this is just me, or if this is a common issue. I think this issue may also be discussed in some of the "can't delete songs" or "can't delete photos" threads, but some of those threads are so long and cover so many different problems that they're kind of hard to read.

ITunes freezes when I try to sync iOS devices

This problem started about 6 weeks ago - I believe before iTunes 10.4 even came out. When I plug in either my iPhone 3GS or iPad 2 to sync, iTunes (Windows 64 bit) just freezes. The only way to unfreeze it is to unplug the device. Typically I have to restart iTunes several times, and/or connect, disconnect, and reconnect the device several times before I can get a device to sync. It makes no difference if I connect the device with iTunes running, connect the device to launch iTunes, or launch iTunes with the device already connected. I am always able to get the device to sync, eventually, but if I disconnect the device after syncing (e.g. iPad) and immediately connect the other device (e.g. iPhone) to sync, iTunes will freeze again. I'm fed up with this. This morning it took me 30 minutes of frustration to sync my iPad - a process that should take 30 seconds. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes but that didn't fix the problem. I've tried switching cables but that didn't fix the problem either. I have searched this forum and also the internet and have not found anybody having this exact issue. Help!

Here is the fix:
1. If frozen iTunes is open and iPhone is connected, right-click the task bar and select Start Task Manager.
2. Click on the Processes tab.
3. Look for the process distnoted.exe *32 entry.
4. Right-click and select End Process.
5. iTunes will now unfreeze.
6. Close iTunes and disconnect iPhone. Wait 15 seconds.
7. Reconnect iPhone. iTunes will launch automaticallly like it should and your iPhone will begin to sync like it should.
There appears to be an incompatibility issue with Apple's distnoted.exe process and maybe 64-bit OS's. All I know is that this works everytime although there doesn't appear to be a permanent fix to this issue. You may have to repeat these steps everytime you reboot your computer or update iTunes.

I have sync with the same key installed in 2 mac computers and one Pc. However the info does not sync if I add bookmarks on one device with the bookmarks on the other devices

I have a sync account and have the app installed between my two mac computers and one pc. However, if I add bookmarks in one device, this is not updated on the other device. What should I do.

Hi!
Before Firefox 7 the service used to take some time to upload the changes and then to download them. Make sure that you wait several hours to confirm that it's not something else.
You can force them by using the "Sync Now" option in the Tools menu.
Fortunately, the behavior have changed with Firefox 7 and now the bookmark changes are instant.

Is it possible to sync Lightroom and LR Mobile between two desktops?

I have an Ipad, iPhone, Mac and Windows 7 PC. I can sync LR Mobile between the iPad, iPhone and Mac OR between the iPad, iPhone, and Windows 7, but LR will not let me sync between all four. Whenever I open LR on my Mac after syncing with my PC, it says that I either have to switch catalogues (which then deletes all of my mobile collections) or stop syncing that machine altogether.
It seems like it should be possible to have a catalogue on my PC and then download my collections from LR Mobile. Can I do this?

Is it possible to check whether this functionality is in the roadmap for LR? I would love this feature - I have LR installed on 2 Windows machines and would like to sync my photos (and edits!) between these. It may be possible using Dropbox or similar service but it feels like this should be built-in to CC.

Possible to sync Safari and Firefox bookmarks?

I mostly use Safari but occasionally am required to use Firefox. While I know it's possible to export my bookmarks from Safari into Firefox, is there any way to keep them automatically in sync?
Thanks!

Actually I just solved my own problem--the Foxmarks plugin for Firefox was upgraded recently to sync with Internet Explorer and Safari as well.

Syncing iOS devices to a new iTunes?

A week or so ago when i turned my iMac (late 2009 model) on it came up with stuff about a kernel panic and wouldnt let me get into the computer so after many attempts of restarting the computer and using various keyborad shortcuts i had no luck. So i rang up apple and asked them what was going on. I was told to bring my imac in so they could have a look at it. When i arrived i was set up at the genius bar and was told my hard drive had basically crashed/crapped itslef, and i didnt have anything backed up (but the guy at the genius bar plugged in some hard drive and showed me i lost my stuff even though my computer accounts and folders were all there). So around $350 for a new hard drive later and a weeks wait for my computer which caused a lot of stress with scool and homework i received my imac back. It was basically a new computer but running snow leopard. So i have downloaded lion again and set up icloud and synced my mail, contacts etc but how am i meant to use my ipad, 2 ipods, 3 iphones (some of these are my brothers and mum, we use the same computer) on the computer if it is going to ask me to erase and sync my data. This proably doesnt make sense but i hope someone can help me out Has anyone else had the same problem and been able to use there devices without having to erase anything Thank you

Thanks Rk0812 but even after deauthorising and logging out, when i go to sync for example apps it says "Are you sure you want to sync apps? All existing apps and their data on the iPhone “Thomas S's iPhone” will be replaced with apps from this iTunes library." I just want to know if there is a way to put all my apps, music etc back on my computer without having to erase my stuff, but thanks for your input

Sync send folders and templates between multiples devices

hello there,
I have to send many emails and use a lot of templates as I am a sole trader and I contact ppl to find work. I need a solution to keep sent folders of emails, all contacts and also template folders on multiple devices in sync. I am using 2 pc's and one Ipad currently.
I would further like to sync with a macbook I am going to but soon. Unforutnately I dont know of any email client able to do that yet.
Is Thunderbird able to do that? Or is a feature like that currently in developement? I might have to try outlook for this. But honestly I dont like Microsoft. I would much prefer to use Thunderbird. I would even be willing to pay money for this feature. I am so desperate for an email programm to be able to synchronize a complete account with all templates I made etc on multiple devices.
I would greatly appreciate if you could take out the time to help me

This is an email protocol thing and not an email client thing.
IMAP syncs different folders across multiple devices. POP only connects to the Inbox of the email server.

Is it possible to control a Mac directly from an iOS device without being connected to a WiFi network, i.e. an airport or similar.

I would like to control my MacMini (Late 2012) 2.3GHz Intel Quad Core i7 processor directly from my iOS device, either my iPhone 6 or my iPad G3. By directly I mean without having a wireless or wired network in place.
I know there are a number of iOS apps that utilize VNC technology but I believe they all require the Mac to be connected via WiFi to an Airport or similar wireless networking device. I would like to control my MacMini remotely without having it already connected to a WiFi network and wondered is it possible? The iOS device and Mac would be in close proximity to one another.
Has anyone had any experience with this? Thanks.

Guys, thanks but I did not mean to control it by infrared. I know only too well that iOS devices do not have that capability. However they and the Mac both can send and receive WiFi signals so is there any reason they can't talk to each other directly.
When I am in my home I have an airport but I would like to take the Mac Mini out on music gigs with my Apollo interface which serves as my mic preamp and mixer as it does in my studio but the Apollo needs to be connected to the mac via thunderbolt to download the plugin software that provides reverb and eq, etc. I would like to do this without the need of a monitor and keyboard, hence my dilemma. The only thing I basically need to do is start the mini and the rest happens automatically but I need to also shut down (which I know can be accomplished a couple of ways) but with out having a visual interface you can't make any changes or verify what setting are being used.
