Is it possible to sync just my calender at work?

I have a new 3g iphone that I sync everything at home.
However, I would like to be able to sync my work outlook calender at the office as well but NOT sync anything else from/to work.
Is this possible to do?

I can't swear this is the case with the 2.0 software, but previously I've kept everything under the Info tab on my work computer and everything else on my home machine. And when I started the upgrade to 2.0, the iPhone recognized this and made it clear that it would erase all the media so this seems at least semi-supported behavior. Not sure if you could separate contacts and calendar though.

HT1386 Why is not possible to sync just content like musice ONLY, when I have no time to wait on whole proces of synchronization, there SHOULD be a way to sync JUST MUSIC and nothing else, I dont wanna wait 10minutes to have 3 songs I want to have in my i

Dear Apple, why is not possible in the year 2014...sync to my iPhone just content I want to separety, without the whole sync procedur(backinup,syncing whole purchased things and stuff like that) When I want to have in my phone for example just 3 new songs ..I dont wanna wait 10minutes because of whole synchronization!!! I want add to my iPhone just these 3 songs thats it! Would be perfect, If you will make possible to sync just parts like MUSIC, Apps, Fotos, separetly and not alltime together...it s****!

Ok.
I have Windows OS and iTunes for PC, but the problem is not in my PC, but in synchronization. Your synchronization take minute or two, you have thunderbolt lightning cable??? If is it by you really so quick than ok but by me is it with sync really slow and I have still powerhouse notebook.
I dont know how is it possible that your sync is so quick, but my iPhone starts transfering purchased aplications and all content to the PC, instead of downloading it PC itself without iPhone from iStore. So there is what happend when I am conecting my iPhone.
When it find my iPhone on the first try, it starts makeing backup, than transfering photos, aplication, some info from Safari and to the end also the MUSIC...this should be improved by Apple and it should be able to sync just MUSIC section and not whole system, when I changed just something in MUSIC section(like adding new CD..)
So it does on PC whole resync Maybe is it somewhere in options, but where? I really want sync sometimes just MUSIC or just Apps and nothing else(like Photos, Bookmarks...)
I am sorry for that angry tone, but I am really stresedby this 20minutes sync or 10 miutes...just becouse of adding 1-2 songs, this is by competition phones quicklier :/ !

Just bought 3 ipads at the flea market over the weekend. all 3 were in unopened boxes. 2 of the ipads synced just fine and are working great. the 3rd however says it is linked to an email already. does this mean it is stolen or what

just bought 3 ipads for the family over the weekend at the flea market. they were all in closed sealed boxes. 2 ipads synced just fine and are working great. the 3rd however is being an issue. it says that it is already linked to an email. does that mean it is stolen? all material and serial nu,bers match up everywhere. was wondering if this could be fixed by me, apple store, or should i be a good samaritian and turn it over to the police with the receipt and where and who i bought it from?

Or it could simply have been sold by someone that didn't know enough to wipe it.
You could check with the police, see if they have it listed as stolen.
If you can get into the settings of that ipad you can 'erase all content and settings' and start fresh.

Possible to sync just ONE Gmail contact group?

So I'm wondering if it's possible to synchronize just one Gmail contact group with my Blackberry contacts. Like, I have about 15 Gmail contact groups -- one group for co-workers, one group for publicists who send me press releases, one group for friends, etc. I only want the addresses in my friends group to be sync'd with my Blackberry. Is this possible? Or do I have to let them all sync, and then manually delete the contacts I don't want from my Blackberry?

Hey eggcream,
The contact list "My Contacts" is the list that synchronizes.
You can remove this label in your Gmail contacts from those of whom you do not wish to have synchronized over.

Is it possible to sync all the email in a folder, not just the last few months worth?

Is it possible to sync all the email in a folder, not just the last few months worth?

Hi Mengelkemier,
I think you're posting in the wrong forum. This forum is intended to be used to discuss virtualizing Exchange Server on the the vSphere platform. The question you're asking seems to be a mobile device specific question.
You would probably get better visibility posting on a forum dedicated to your particular device. And for what it's worth, some devices will let you sync all of your email and others will only let you sync a certain amount. It's dependent on the device you're using.
Good luck in finding your answer.

Need to sync JUST album art....Is that possible?

I loaded some of my music the other day manually like I always do because do otherwise my iPhone would fill out too quickly. So I have Manually manage music and videos on and sync music off under music.
But I didn't have some album art at the time and I finally added it, but now I want to add it to my iPhone, but syncing it doesn't work.
What can I do to sync just the album art

Have you read any of what I've included in my previous posts?
Obviously not - so read it.
You don't have to include your entire music library when syncing. Under the Sync Music selection, you can choose all music and playlists, or selected playlists. I choose selected playlists and have a single primary iTunes playlists that I use for my iPhone, along with a few other playlists.
When manually managing music, you must manually delete the songs from your iPhone - open your iPhone in the iTunes source list to reveal the categories within such as music. Select music to view the music that was manually transferred to your iPhone. Select the music that you want to delete and select the delete button. This is called manually managing music, so you must do all this manually, which isn't a good idea to use with the iPhone.
If you restore your iPhone with iTunes if needed or wanted when manually managing music, you must manually re-transfer all music to your iPhone having to remember which music you had manually transferred to your iPhone before restoring. When syncing, the selected playlists chosen are re-selected automatically, or you can select the playlist or playlists yourself followed by a sync. The identical music as before will be transferred to your iPhone without having to remember anything and without having to manually do anything except for selecting the Sync button.
Don't know why I'm wasting my time with someone who chooses not to read what was already provided and learn something.
Based on all of this, why are you manually managing music again?

Is it possible to Sync an iPod (or iPhone) with a Shared Library?

I know this is a silly, basic question, but 6:30 AM is just too early for me to keep digging for the answer.
So, I have several computers at home. ONE of them is used to purchase and store all of my iTunes music. This same computer is used to sync several iPods. The entire library on this computer is shared. Two other computers in the house are Authorized on the same account and regularly play music stored on the "first" computer.
So here's the rub.
My duaghter just got a new iPhone. She has her own MAC. I'd like her to begin using her own computer to sync her iPod and iPhone.
Is it possible to sync her iPod and iPhone using HER computer (that is authorized on my account) and MY shared library?

I don't think it is possible to sync an ipod to a shared library for copyright reasons. Sharing is great and simple for accessing and listening to other computer's music over a network, but to sync your ipod - I believe can only be done from that particular itune's music library. But here's how I work around this so that I don't have to have my 90 GB Music Folder copied on multiple computers:
Copy these files from your main computer (the one that has and controls your master itunes library) into the same location on any other computer on your network (say your daughter's computer): user/music/itunes/iTunes Music Library.xml & iTunes Library. Before copying them over to daughter's computer, remove the old files (maybe keep somewhere else just in case) and have itunes shut down. Then start up itunes on your daughter's computer and it should look identical to the main computer's itunes (and the same as the shared library). What you've esentially done is created a separate itunes library data base that can be managed on your daughter's computer but one that accesses the same actual music files that are on the main computer's Music Folder. To check go to Preferences/Advanced and you'll see that the Music Folder location is pointing to the same file as on the main computer (whose Music Folder is now being used as a sort of network music despository). You'll notice that when your daughter's computer starts itunes and plays a song, the main computer's hard drive where the Music Folder is stored will mount on her computer. So the main computer obviously has to be turned on, or more accurately, the location of the Music Folder (could be on an external hard drive) must be accessible over the network. Your duaghter can now create her own spearate playlists and sync her ipod to her own library which is accessing the same song files (Music Folder) as the main computer. And both of you can be playing from itunes at the same time independantly.
Here's the tricky part that takes some coordintation: Since you'll both be accessing and adding to the same huge Music Folder, you'll need to coordinate with eachother if you want to be able to have each computer's itunes database "see" any music that the other person has added or purchased. For purchasing or adding music to the music folder, both of you should have in Preferences/Advanced the "copy files to iTunes Music folder when adding to Library" selection checked when purchasing music or adding music via burning. If your daughter, for example, buys an album and has this preference selected, then it will go to the Music Folder and she will have access to it. But the other computer doesn't know that this was added to the music folder and it won't show up in that computer's itunes. For itunes to knwo a song is in it's Music Library it has to add it to it. SO, from this other computer, go to File/Add to Library and navigate to the location within the Music Folder and then select the newly purchased album and it will now show up in this itunes as well - BUT before you do this you should UNcheck the "copy files to iTunes Music folder when adding to Library" preference so that the album is not duplicated in the Music Folder. Then if this computer wants to purchase an album, you need to have this checked again. Basically if your doing the original adding you have to have the "copy files to iTunes Music folder when adding to Library" checked. If your simply letting your itunes know that something was added then have the "copy files to iTunes Music folder when adding to Library" unchecked before you add it to your library. And if someone creates a playlist that the other wants, you can still share eachother's libraries (even though your accessing the same Music Folder) or even export the playlist and import it into the other computer.
Sounds tricky but it's actually pretty easy and allows each person to sort of control his/her itunes and sync their own ipods/iphones all from the same Music Folder.

Is it possible to sync one iPhone to two Macs? One for the music library and one for contacts, emails etc

At home I have two Macs, one for work and another which acts as a sort of entertainment hub storing all my music, podcasts and videos as well as being for the family to use.
Is it possible to sync my one iPhone to both Macs, with the work one just syncing things like my contacts, emails, calendars and apps while the other Mac would sync just the podcasts and music to the iPhone.
Would this cause any problems and what is the correct way to go about this?
Thanks for any help, tips and advice.

As wjosted said, it's possible, but it's not recommended.
Email does not sync with a computer. Only email account information is. Mail itself is synced with the mail server.
Why not just sync with the computer you keep your media on and use iCloud (or whatever cloud service you want) to sync the rest? Seems simpler to me.

Is it possible to sync time capsule data to a external hard drive

Is it possible to sync time capsule data to a external hard drive connected to time capsule via usb. (as an precaution just incase time capsule fails)
Thanks

Yes, if the USB drive has been previously formatted correctly in Mac OS Extended (Journaled) format.
Open AirPort Utility - Click Manual Setup
Click the Disks icon
Click the Disks tab below the icon
Click Archive
Allow plenty of time for the copy process to occur. You will not be able to make Time Machine backups from your Mac until the Archive process has completed.

Syncing calender not working

Hi,
the syncing of the calender with my iPad mini via iTunes 11 and an iMac 27 still running 10.6.8 just doesn't work right. Could the problem be 10.6.8?
When I first got the iPad mini a few months ago, syncing did seem to work fine with the calender. Then, I did activate iCloud at some point and also the syncing via Wi-fi and I think, that one of these must have caused the problem. I did turn off both oprions and used a cable again, but to no avail. I also followed Apple's instruction to sort of reset the syncing on my Mac, but that also did not improve things.
Any clues to what I could try out next? Right now I have to manually put every entry on both the iPad and the Mac and that just can't be the solution.
Thanx
Peter

The problem is on my ical the Outlook calendar is dropped from the list of calendar some how.
I do not know how to get it back on there . Yes I have sync service selected in outlook to my computer/ calendar .
I thinks it has so when the icloud calender got turned on some how and bumped my outlook calendar out.
It has been working flawless for over a year I did something with iCloud that started this mess.
None of that addresses my question,

Is it possible to download just one playlist onto my husbands new ipod nano

Is it possible to download just one playlist onto my husbands new ipod nano (16gb) from my Macbook pro version 10.6.8. and is so how?

Hello sylviafromkendal,
With an iPod, you are able to sync music from multiple iTunes libraries to the device. If the iPod is configured to manually manage the content, then please follow the directions in the first article below. If that is not the case, then you will need to enable the manually manage music and videos option is turned on.

Possible to sync E71 with Mac?

Hi
I just started using an Apple MacBook, and I was wondering, if it is possible to sync my E71 to the calendar and contact functions in my Mac as I use to do with my old PC via PC suite.
Also, if it is possible - should I use the Entourage program (part of the Microsoft Office package) or the address book / calendar function within the Mac?
Kind regards
lnormann

Yes you can
I have synced my E71 with a iMac desktop OS 10.5.8 Leopard using iSync via Bluetooth, integrates seamlessly with iCal and Contacts.
You may need to download the iSync extension on the Nokia website.
Hope this helps

Is it possible to sync an up to date iOS device on an outdated iTunes? (Related to my love about iTunes 11)

So, I love updating my apps, operating systems and software. The moment iTunes 11 released, I updated it and loved it. But I have some friends that don't care about updating at all, and every time we meet, I steal their iPhones and iPod touches and update all their apps. (They kinda let me, I think they're just lazy). But I'm afraid one of them will be reluctant to update to iTunes 11, and in my perfect world no one can be outdated. Is it possible to sync an updated iOS (like the upcoming 7, and then 8) to an old iTunes like 10.6? I really need to know this to feel good, because if you have to be on an up to date iTunes to sync your updated iOS device, I know that one day they will be forced against their will to update to the new iTunes version, and I will feel great :)
Any kind answers will be appreciated.

Was the iPod previous synced to another iTunes library/computer?
Have you successfully synced from this iTunes library/computer before?
If so have you done anything like update iTunes on the computer since it last successfully synced?

Is it possible to sync with Outlook and Entourage with one iPhone?

Hi,
I wonder if anyone knows whether it is possible to Sync my contacts and calenders from my Home Mac (using Entourage 2008) and the Windows PC at my office (with Outlook 2007) to the same iPhone without data from one source getting lost?
Thanks in advance.

Hey keiichi-san,
Yes, It is possible. You can merge contacts, calendars, and bookmarks between multiple computers.
When you sync the contacts and calendars to your iPhone from the new computer you'll see the option to Merge or Replace, just choose Merge.
