Is it possible to sync multiple mobileme accounts onto the iphone, syncing ical calendars for these multiple mobile me accounts ?

I am trying to sync two mobileme accounts into my iphone and each account have different calendars ( all being with ical NOT CALDAV).
Now, my question is can I sync these different calendars, belonging to different mobileme accounts, into the iphone? please assist me on this matter.
Basically i want to have a work calendar  to share with my colleagues and a personal calendar to share just with my friends and family.

You are correct.  This used to work in the past although admittedly I haven't tried it for some time as it was of no direct use for my purposes.
If the goal is to see another MobileMe account's calendar(s) on your iOS device then an alternative would be to share the calendar(s) in question to yourself.
Example:
Assume you currently have MobileMe user account A on your iPhone.
Login to MM user account B with me.com which has the calendar you wish to have access to on your iPhone
Click on Calendars
Click on the Share button for the calendar you wish to see added to your iPhone.
Type in the MobileMe email address for MM user account A and set it for read & write access
Login to MM user account A on me.com
Go to calendars and accept the invitation to join the calendar you sent from MM account B
Go your iPhone (you may need to turn it on and off to make the calendars refresh ) and check your calendars, you should now have the other calendars added to your MobileMe account A's calendar
Note: You can repeat step # 3 for each of the calendars you wish to see on your iPhone.

  • How do we split our iCloud accounts but keep one iTunes account so we can share purchased content for our multiple iPhones and iPads?

    How do we split our iCloud accounts but keep one iTunes account so we can share purchased content for our multiple iPhones and iPads?

    You can migrate a copy of the data to a new account, then delete the other person's data from each account.  To do this, on the phone that will be changing accounts, if you have any photos in photo stream that you want to keep on the phone, save these to your camera roll by opening the photo stream album in the thumbnail view, tapping Edit, then tap all the photos you want to save, tap Share and tap Save to Camera Roll. If you have any synced notes that you want to keep on the phone, email these to yourself so you can create new notes in the new account.
    Once this is done, go to Settings>iCloud, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account.  (This will only delete the account from this phone, not from iCloud.  The phone that will be keeping the account will not be effected by this.)  When prompted about what to do with the iCloud data, be sure to select Keep On My iPhone.  Next, set up a new iCloud account using a different Apple ID (if you don't have one, tap Get a Free Apple ID at the bottom).  Then turn iCloud data syncing for contacts, etc. back to On, and when prompted about merging with iCloud, choose Merge.  This will upload the data to the new account.  You will create a new icloud email address with you turn Mail to On.
    Finally, to un-merge the data you will then have to go to icloud.com on your computer and sign into each iCloud account separately and manually delete the data you don't want (such as deleting your wife's data from your account, and vice versa).

  • Notes sync and MobileMe, maybe, but not iPhone

    I think someone forgot to communicate with the iTunes, MobileMe and iPhone teams.
    I can sync my notes with MobileMe. Can't find them anywhere on MobileMe. Not sure if they are really synced.
    I can sync my notes with iPhone and iTunes, but have to be connected by cable. No immediate update.
    Why can't I sync my Notes on the iPhone the same way bookmarks are synced?
    Shouldn't iTunes say: "Your Notes are being synced with your iPhone over the air from MobileMe"?
    Shouldn't iPhone have an ON/OFF for Notes, the same as Mail or Calendar?

    [spent 20 mins with MobileMe chat figuring this out:]
    Notes on the iPhone sync to desktop Mail as "On Your Mac" Notes (under Reminders), by cable only.
    Mobile Me will sync Notes, but ONLY Notes that you create as attached to the MobileMe email account.
    To do this, go into Mail Preferences, click on Composing, and set "Create Notes and To-Dos" to MobileMe in the dropdown (make sure you have set up your MobileMe account in Mail first). Now create a note in Mail. It will show up, in bold and marker felt font, as a entry in your MobileMe inbox.
    When you log into me.com and click on mail, you will see the notes in your inbox, but not bold. However, they will not sync to the phone from there--I think they are designed to sync to another Mac computer, but do not have one to test. So they are not all that useful, IMO.
    If you set the preference above to "last viewed account" instead of Mobile Me, then you can create notes in either place by selecting the MM inbox or On My Mac first.
    Suggest you look into Evernote, Shovebox, Missing Sync for iPhone, or any of the many other note-syncing third-party options, because Apple's solution is pretty sad. Complain to Apple at
    http://apple.com/feedback/
    By the way, Amazon and other resellers sell MobileMe for ≤$70, regularly. The retail box contains an activation key that you can use to renew an account. No need to pay Apple's $99, unless the auto-convenience is worth $30 to you (and it may be, though, usually companies give a discount for auto-renewal. But okay, Apple).

  • I lost my Iphone 3GS. My brother has given me his Iphone 4 now. We both use the same notebook to update and sync our phones. I would like to know how can i reconnect back to my account using the Iphone which was previous used by my brother.

    If you are saying that you both have iCloud accounts and use the same icloud ID, then yes, the contacts will be deleted.  The idea is that all devices using the same icloud ID are kept in sync.  You need to use different IDs.  You can keep the same iTunes ID so you can share the songs and apps.  But use different icloud IDs.

  • Can I use accounts in the Airport Utility to keep backup from multiple macs separate and separate?

    Can I use accounts in the Airport Utility to keep backup from multiple macs separate and separate?

    Backups from multiple Macs are always kept separate. Each Mac TM will create its own sparsebundle and will not interfere with others.
    Using the accounts in AU will simply make each sparsebundle only accessible to that user.. ie it is a purely a security measure.. that is so weak as to be useless .. anyone can bypass it by pressing the reset for 1sec.
    And what it will do is cut off everyone from their existing backups.. you will be warned when you set it up that what is about to happen may not be 100% goodness.. pay attention.. it is not.

  • ERROR: itunes could not sync mail accounts to the iphone etc.

    Brand new iphone owner. Day two. The initial sync was fie, on the next sync I got the the following error message."iTunes could not sync mail accounts to the iphone (my name) iPhone because the mail accounts are in use by the iPhone. Close the mail accounts settings on the iPhone then sync again."
    I can't find this one in other discussions. HELP!

    You can either setup your mail account settings manually or sync your settings to your phone. If your mail accounts are already setup on your phone, there is no need to have this box checked in itunes.

  • "iTunes could not sync mail accounts to the iPhone because an error occurred remapping record identifiers.

    When I sync my 3g iPhone to my laptop - windows , I am getting a new message that "iTunes could not sync mail accounts to the iPhone because an error occurred remapping record identifiers.
    Can anyone help me to solve this issue ? relly its a major problm

    iTunes is running into a conflict between mail account information already on your iPhone and the accounts you are trying to sync.
    Connect your iPhone to your computer. In the Advanced section under the Info tab, check the box next to "Mail Accounts". This will replace the mail account info on your iPhone with the accounts you are trying to sync.
    If this does not work, then reset your sync history by opening the iSync application, going into the preferences, and clicking Reset Sync History.

  • I synced with iMac itunes and got many more contacts than I want on the iPhone. How can I delete multiple contacts rather than having to do so one at a time?

    I synced my iPhone with itunes and iMac and got many more contacts than I wanted on my iPhone. How can I delete quite a few of them at one time as opposed to deleting one at a time?

    iTunes does not handle the import of photos/videos from the iPhone's Camera Roll.
    If this is not the computer you sync your iPhone with, you should have been provided a warning message that your iPhone is associated with an iTunes library on another computer and when trying to transfer any iTunes content from a different computer, a warning message is provided indicating that all iTunes content on the iPhone will be erased first.
    When connecting an iPhone to iTunes on another computer, none of the options under the various tabs for the iPhone sync preferences with iTunes are selected automatically. This means you had to select Sync Contacts under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes on your wife's computer.
    Assuming you are syncing contacts with a supported address book app on your computer, connect your iPhone to Tunes on your computer and without syncing, under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences below the Advanced section, select Contacts for replace info on this iPhone followed by a sync.
    For importing photos/videos from the Camera Roll which can be done with a computer that is not used for syncing the iPhone since syncing with iTunes is not involved.

  • How can I allow multiple users to edit a single shared iCal calendar?

    Is it possible to allow multiple users to edit a single shared iCal calendar? I also want to provide different permissions to those users. Is this possible through .MAC? Is it possible on Mac OSX Server?

    I would like 2 agenda synced through .Mac but it does not work.
    I have 2 computers and 2 laptops. A very simple agenda with 3 calenders. Myself my partner and the office calender. I want to publish my calender and that of my partner. The office calender I would like to sync so that we can change the office calender at any location.
    I set up sync only for iCall and have a .Mac account. When I change anything on any of the calenders in iCall nothing happens on any of my other locations. Even though the locations are registered as synced. I can see the sync wheel turning but at the end of it the calenders are not synced.
    At this moment I fully understand the publish and unpublished calenders but have no clue what so ever what syncing does for iCall. There seems to be no functionality to it. It does not transport any calender info over .Mac. There is no visable check to see what is happening and the process of syncing is not transperent. Lots of my friends go to me for advise on Apple issues but as far as sync wether iCall or Addressbook I always tell them sync does not work and I have no clue why others have it working. I haven't met any people here in Holland either that got in working. I suppose with iCall you have to get third party software to share calenders editable calenders. Really hopeless situation, wish Apple would just have a manual stating what sync can do and what it can not. Hours wasted on this issue trying to get it to work.
    Hope anyone here can help out.

  • ITunes could not sync contacts ... because the iPhone disconnected

    I had both an iPhone 3GS and iPod touch (2nd gen w/ 3.0 software) syncing to Mobile Me and to my mac. All seemed well except I had a few duplicate entries in contacts. In trying to clean up the duplicates in MobileMe syncing I turned off contact syncing on the phone then turned it back on again. Then I started getting the following error.
    iTunes could not sync contacts to the iPhone "iPhone" because the iPhone disconnected.
    I've: reinstalled iTunes, completely wiped the iPhone back to factory, Forced a refresh of MobileMe from the Mac to Mobile Me.etc. Symptoms seem to be getting worse instead of better. Now the iPod touch is also screwed up and has the same error as above except for the reference to iPhone.
    Current status:
    iPhone: Contacts - Had a mess, but I seem to have it working. One set of contacts. Calendar - will not sync with Mac. Synced to MobileMe, but empty. Get spinning network activity symbol when in Calender app.
    iPod Touch - Calendar will not sync with Mac. blank synced with Mobile me but empty, Contacts has the separate On my Mac and Mobile Me group listings, but otherwise seems ok. Syncs with Mac.
    iPod Nano - Contacts seem ok, Calendar seems ok,
    MobileMe - Once I reset it seems ok.
    Other info that may or may not apply. There are two other Macs synced by MobileMe. I've reset them as well. Multiple user accounts on each machine.

    By wiping both iPhone and iPod and trying syncing with another computer I've come to the conclusion that something with MobileMe sync is the problem.
    I can set up both to work fine with my Mac Pro and a new Mac Book Pro as long as I don't set up MobileMe syncing. As soon as I sync with MobileMe I start having problems, particularly with Calendar.
    MobileMe seems to work fine computer to computer, until the iPhone/iPod get involved, then the MobileMe copy gets messed up. Version on computer seems to stay ok.
    Not sure where to go from here... other than call Apple or go to the Apple Store.

  • Cannot send an email from my alias Mobile Me account from the iPhone.

    I have a Mobile Me email account which works perfectly on my Mac and iPhone. I created a an Alias Mobile Me Account on the web.
    I am able to create a new email from the alias account on the Mac.
    The iPhone will not recognize the alias account, I cannot add it or sync the account.
    I cannot send an email from my alias Mobile Me account from the iPhone.

    To all frustrated MobileMe alias owners who want to send email from iPhone - please go to the feedback area of the apple.com and leave messages regarding this issue. I had a lengthy conversation with a tech support guy who agreed that this is a needed fix - he said to initiate a grass roots effort - and that by all of us leaving messages it will eventually get attention and fixed. Why would Apple give us the ability to create alias's, use them on mobileme website, on our mac mail programs, but NOT the iPhone, which is the MOBILE device. Silly. Please protest!! Thanks.

  • Can not send email from .mac account from the iPhone

    I'm having problems sending email from my iPhone from my .Mac Account and says the outgoing server timed out. Any Suggestions?

    This error message indicates you are not using the correct server port for .Mac's SMTP server.
    Did you transfer the account settings from your Mac to the iPhone automatically via the iTunes sync process or did you manually create your .Mac account on the iPhone?
    If the former, go to Mail > Preferences > Accounts and under the Account Information tab for your .Mac account preferences at the SMTP Server selection, select the Server Settings button below for .Mac's SMTP server.
    If 25 is available in the Server Port field, enter 587 in place of 25 and when finished, select OK to save the changed setting and then re-sync your iPhone making sure your .Mac account is selected for account settings to be transferred to the iPhone.

  • I have an iphone 4 connected to my imac/itunes using a designated email address.  However, I also have an 80gb ipod classic which is connected to my general email account. How can I transfer my ipod to the same account as the iphone

    I have an iphone 4 connected to my imac/itunes account using its own designated email address. However, I also have an 80gb ipod classic which is connected to my general email address. How can I delete this and transfer the ipod to the same account as the iphone 4. Thankyou

    iPods, iPhones, and iPads aren't tied to one particular iTunes accout/Apple ID.  So there are no special instructions to follow to allow you to sync it with your newer account.  Simply sync it as you would your iPhone 4.
