Issue with comcast sent email syncing between IPad and MacBook Air

When sending email from comcast account on my iPad the emails  don't show up in sent mail on my MacBook mail application, why not? This is a problem when following up on key communications during a consulting project.

That's because Comcast for the majority of account uses POP email, and with POP all sent and downloaded mail is local to the device. Received mail can be set not to be automatically erased from the server and hence downloaded and read on multiple systems, but sent mail is not and can only be viewed in the sending system. Hence you have to sync the email by some other means, such as through iTunes to see it all on multiple devices.
Comcast does have a "beta" of IMAP, where all mail, send and received, is kept on their servers. If you're interested in that, see:

  • Pages won't sync between iPad and Macbook

    I cannot get my pages to sync between iPad and Macbook.
    I regularly go back and forth between the two because it's easier to read/edit on iPad and easier to type/copy-paste web info on Macbook.
    I'm finding right now that I have done a multitude of edits on my iPad that are not showing up at all when I open the same document on my Macbook.
    I have closed the document on my iPad so I expected there to be no problems when I opened it on my Macbook.
    Not sure why or what to do....?

    I had this issue too - I have been playing around with it for a few days - turns out you need to save the documents on your mac not under "documents" but rather under "Pages - iCloud" (or "Keynote - iCloud" etc.). After doing this, the document appears on my phone, iPad, iCloud.com etc. with the changes.
    One way to do this is by clicking the dropdown arrow (it shows up when you mouse over the title) to the right of the title of your document on the grey title bar (the thing at the top of the page - above insert, table, chart etc.) and then editing the "where" column.
    Hope this helps! If it isn't clear enough, please let me know!

  • Pages and Numbers not sync between ipad and macbook pro. icloud problem?

    My Pages and Numbers are stopped synchronizing via icloud between ipad and macbook pro. Everytime I edit something to Pages or Numbers on my ipad, my ipad failed to upload the edited version to icloud. what happened?

    I have a slightly different problem with Numbers and Pages failing to sync between a Macbook and iPad via iCloud. I have checked all the obvious settings. I think the problem may be that the Macbook username is my email address, whereas the iPad username is my wife's email address. However, both addresses are named alibis for exactly the same email address from our internet provider – eg we get the same emails, despite appearing to have different addresses. So I don't understand why the iPad cannot pick up Numbers or Pages files that have been opened and saved in iCloud on my Macbook. Other apps, such as iCal, sync perfectly, but i guess they don't use iCloud. Any help appreciated!
    (We have tried emailing Numbers files to the iPad, but that is very slow and innefective.) 

  • Application sync between ipad and Macbook pro

    I purchased iWorks a year ago for my ipad and then recently purchased a Macbook Pro.  Is the application purchase valid for my laptop or do I need to repurchase the app and install it on my Macbook?  Thanks!

    Apps that run on your iPad (iOS) cannot run on the Mac OS X and vice versa. Two different operating systems.
    So you do need to re purchase the app for your Mac.

  • Sharing photos between IPad and MacBook Air

    Hi
    How can i import some photos recorded into my IPad and save them into my MacBook Air? I mean, how can i share photos between those equipment?
    Thanks
    Jorge

    The simplest and most efficient way would be to use Photo Stream as described here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2605
    Photos on your iPad will immediately appear on your MacBook Air in iPhoto -- as long as your MacBook Air is reasonably recent and OS X and iPhoto are current.

  • Transferring photos between iPad and MacBook Air

    I've been trying to copy photographs from my iPad to my wife's MacBook Air and I can't find a way to do it. Is it possible to use AirDrop to move stuff from an ios device to an OSX device? Using DropBox is painfully slow, and BEAM doesn't work. Surely it must be possible? Airdrop on the MacBook doesn't see the iPad and vice versa, though they're both on the same wi-fi network and sitting centimetres from each other.

    You cannot do it with AirDrop. Following quote is from iOS: Use AirDrop to wirelessly share content
    You can't use AirDrop on iOS to share with OS X users, and OS X users can't use AirDrop to share with iOS devices.
    You can do it via Photo Stream iCloud: My Photo Stream FAQ
    Or as I do, via USB cable: iOS: Import personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer
    And there are 3rd party apps such as http://www.photosync-app.com

  • Transferring photos between ipad and macbook air (not photo stream)

    Photos were originally on my IMac 10.6.8.  Put them on my Ipad (I think it's the 2nd one).  Now I want to put the photos from my ipad to my macbook air.  I have photo stream set up on both but I think because they were not taken on my ipad or originally downloaded from a camera to my ipad photo stream doesn't send them to my macbook via photo stream.  How do I get them from the ipad to the macbook air 10.8.4?
    Thanks, Kate

    You can also use 3rd party apps like Photo Transfer App.

  • Iphone 5C no longer syncs calendar to iPad and MacBook Air

    I am having syncing problems with my iPhone 5C to my iPad and MacBook Air. I installed the latest updates on all three devices yesterday.  Now my iPhone will only sync to my other devices when I add or delete an event on my iPhone. It does not sync when events are added or deleted on iPad or MacBook Air. When I add or delete an  event on the iPhone then all previous events syncs on my other devices to my iPhone. How do I fix this?

    Yes. I have done everything I can find on Internet. All devices are det the
    same with iCloud on, all calendars, push is on.

  • Syncing emails across iPhone, iPad and macbook pro

    Can you sync emails across iphone, ipad and macbook pro, so if you delete from one it deletes on all?  If you write an email on one it shows up on all?  If you store something in a folder or flad something it shows up on all?
    Thanks

    Syncing mail is a function on the type of mail account, & requires an IMAP or Exchange account. Not possible with a POP3 account.

  • HT1296 Is the numbers app compatible between ipad and macbook for syncing?

    Is the numbers app compatible between ipad and macbook for syncing?

    I think i have found how to solve the problem. I went into address book preferences and i noticed i didn't have icloud enabled here. As long as i use icloud contacts rather than 'on my mac' contacts it now seems to delete and add across the 2 devices. Many thanks

  • How is it best to keep files synced between iMac and Macbook?  I work from home on my iMac and then out in meetings on my Macbook and need to have access to the same files on both.

    How is it best to keep files synced between iMac and Macbook?  I work from home on my iMac and then out in meetings on my Macbook and need to have access to the same files on both.  The folders are using Microsoft programmes as this is compatiable with 90% of my colleagues, therefore I can't use the Icloud service.

    No, the camera connection kit only supports the copying of photos and videos to the Photos app, it doesn't support copying content off the iPad. For your second camera instead of the SD reader part of the kit, does the iPad to camera cable not work with it for direct transfer to the iPad ?
    For Lightroom and Nikon software again no - you can only install apps that are available in the iTunes app store on your computer and the App Store app on the iPad, 'normal' PC and Mac (OS X) software are not compatible with the iPad (iOS). There are some apps that perform fairly basic editing functions that are available in the store, but nothing as sophisticated as, for example, Lightroom.

  • I have an iPhone 4S, iPad and MacBook Air.  I'm looking for an app or program where I can track time spent of specific projects each day and also document details of each project.  Is there anything available that is synced through iCloud?

    I have an iPhone 4S, iPad and MacBook Air.  I'm looking for a program or app that I can sync though iCloud that will allow me to us all of these devices to track time spent on projects each day along with the ability to add specific information about each project.  Any suggestions are appreciated! Thanks!

    I recommend you consider Omnifocus.  It is a task management program which runs on the Mac, Iphone & Ipad. I use it for task management and project management.  It let's you store additional information as well.   I sync all three devices through a Mobile Me account and I can enter data on any device and it is available on all devices.  I believe you can also sync through Dropbox.  I'm not sure that you can sync through iCloud yet.  The link to their website is:  www.omnigroup.com.  There may be less expensive alternatives, but this one meets my needs and syncs very well across all devices.

  • How to synch calendars between iPad and MacBook Pro?

    How do I synch calendars between iPad and MacBook Pro?

    Thank you for your help. However, I still have no connection; could it be that the laptop is signed in through my account and the iPad through my wife's?
    If so, must I delete her iCloud account and reestablish it as mine?
    Thank you
