Issues with sync between Outlook and iphone 4S.

Since the upgrade to the operating system and itunes, I have not been able to sync my outlook calendar with my iphone. Any suggestions?

There is no selection for one way vs. two way. Sync is sync... that is to say, it is 2 way by nature. What is it you can't do that you want to? If you have multiple Address books, e.g. One in an address book on the computer and one in iCloud, if you make entries in the iCloud address book, they do not sync to the computer. That would require you install the iCloud control panel for Windows and sync them to your computer that way rather than from the phone.

ICloud not syncing between Outlook and iPhone...

For over a year it was great, my iPhone and PC were linked in contacts, mail and photo stream. All of a sudden yesterday (Feb. 14) iCloud is not in Outlook 2010. I have tried deleting and starting over twice but it still they are not in sync in Outlook, hence my contacts are not there and the calendar is missing. The set-up says they're linked but not...I have plenty of storage space.... Help?

This is what was wrong on in my problem. I had to ensure the iCloud Outlook Add-in is active within Outlook.
Open Outlook 2010.
Click the File menu.
Click Options in the left panel of the Outlook window.
Click Add-Ins in the left panel of the Outlook Options window.
Look at the list of add-ins beneath "Active Application Add-Ins" and verify that the "iCloud Outlook Add-in" is listed.
If not, find the "Manage" and click "Go"
Find "iCLoud Outlook Add-in" and check it if it's unchecked and then click "OK"
After I did this everything synced once again. I hope this works for you as it did for me.

I need help syncing my contacts between Outlook and iPhone using iTunes. I followed the steps given and ended up with just email addresses showing in my contacts even though I have phone numbers and snail mail in my Outlook Contacts. Using Windows 7

I need help syncing my contacts between Outlook and iPhone using iTunes. I used the knowldge document and set it up to transfer my Outlook contacts to the iphone using itunes.
In contacts on the iphone I only see the email addresses.
Yet in Outlook I have email, snail mail and phone numbers.
I followed the knowledge document from iphone.
I did it once, didn't work so deleted all the contacts from the phone and tried again. Same result. I have a PC using Windows 7 64 bit.

You can't access an Exchange account via ActiveSync with the Address Book and iCal on your Mac.
You can access a MM account with Outlook on your PC at work and keep your MM email account server stored mailboxes synced between your PC at work, your iPhone, and the MM "cloud". Not sure about syncing MM contact info and calendar events with Outlook at the same time with an Exchange account.
This will not provide for syncing your Exchange account contact info and calendar events with the Addresss Book and iCal on your Mac because the accounts are separate.
You can access an Exchange account and a MM account at the same time with the iPhone's mail client, and sync contact info and calendar events over the air with both accounts at the same time. You can view combined contact info or separately for each account, and the same for calendar events.

Sync between MacBookPro and iPhone 3G does not sync properly. Calendars duplicate events but worse is that only contacts from Address book from letter T onwards sync. Any contacts on iPhone which are not on Mac are lost during sync.

Solutions?

No, I never really found an easy solution. I believe it is an issue with some corruption in the iTunes database on the specific device. In my case, both my iPad and iPhone now show duplicate stream songs if viewed through iTunes on my Mac, but they show different songs. A couple years ago I had a similar issue on my iPhone, and Apple support suggested I back up the phone, completely reset it, and then restore it from the backup. It did work, so I imagine it would probably work for my current issues with the iPhone and iPad. But resetting and restoring an iPad or iPhone always makes me a little nervous that something will get lost. When I did reset/restore the iPhone, I do have to say, the restore process was 100% perfect and I did not lose any data at all even though Apple support said I might. If you try to go that route, I would suggest backing the device up both to a computer through iTunes, and to the iCloud so that you have a double backup.
None of this really resolves the issue with how the iTunes databases are becoming corrupted on the apple devices though, so it is very likely to happen again until they fix it. I have been unable to determine if there were any specific actions or conditions which caused the corruption to happen in the first place.
Might be worth another call to Apple support, or dropping in the local Apple store if you have one near by.

It does not work with sync between Outlook

It does not work with sync between Outlook, Exchange and iPhone.
Writing something into the iPhone so it will in the PC calendar and put up in telefoen. After a while, it disappears from the iPhone but is still on the computer. The same goes for the iPad. Seems to have arisen after the last update as a security measure was around May 25 -13.

Suggest turning off and deleting the Exchange account and adding it back again. Appears there is a communications problem between the two.

Notes not syncing between outlook and itunes

Itunes (12.1.1.4) is not syncing my notes correctly between outlook and my iphone.
new notes transfer, but changes are not working.
I have one note that if I changed it in outlook, it kept revertting to whatever was on my iphone
Then another one, any changes made in the phone, will revert to what was saved in outlook.
This does not happen consistently (not with all notes) but I can get it to repeatedly happen.
Also, If I make changes to the same note in both places and then sync, the sync procedure used to give mt he option to pick the one I wanted. That is no longer happening either.
I am using outlook 365, current version.
And, I'm using an iphone 5 with 8.1.2 os

On your Mac open System Preferences > iCloud
Deselect Notes then reselect it.
On your iOS devices, tap Settings > iCloud
Switch Notes off then back on.
Give iCloud a few minutes to re sync the data.

Photos not syncing between Mac and iPhone since update to Photos on Mac.

Ever since I updated to Photos on my Late 2013 macbook pro retina, photos are not syncing between it and my iPhone 6. Both are updated to the most recent software update. Photo stream is on. Does anyone have this problem or know a solution?

You will have to go the the Photos tab in iTunes when you connect the iPhone. Then reset the photo sync options. They were reset with the upgrade to use iCloud by default, but you can change the settings back to sync folders, just like before.

Playlists are not syncing between Mac and iPhone

I have enables iCloud sync and sync over Wifi betweem my Mac and iPhone. But the sync is not working, and new playlists and edited playlists on the MAc are not showing up on iPhone. Also, such playlists that show up on the iPhone are not updating.

How can I get an audiobook's playback position synced between Mac and iPhone?

I have several Audible audiobooks, both on my iMac and on my iPhone. I listen to the audiobook on either the computer or the phone, depending on the circumstances. Both the iMac and the iPhone will independently remember the playback position within the audiobook, but I cannot get them to sync those playback positions to each other. So if I'm on chapter 2 on the iMac, listen for a couple of hours, and end at chapter 4, then the Mac will remember the correct playback position when I return to the book, but if I sync the iPhone to the Mac, and check the audiobook on the phone, it is still at the playback position it was the last time I listened to the book on the phone. Should the playbook position in the audiobook sync when the phone is synced to the computer via iTunes? I've tried both wired and wireless syncs, and that doesn't seem to make a difference on my case. Should this work, and if so, is there a particular setting that I'm missing?

I am tracking the movement of various objects by subtracting the current image from the previous image and displaying the result. Anything that moves is white and anything that doesn't is black. I then have vision assistant give me a list of particles and their pixel positions based on certain criteria. I then use the data from my two cameras pointing at 45 degrees inward in order to triangulate the object's 3-D position in space (this takes a few steps). Then I use the frame rate of the camera and the scalar distance between an object in multiple frames to determine its scalar and vector velocities. All of this is done in real time.
I was originally having issues with the pixel positions but have since wrote a vi that interprets a matrix of the pixel positions which then feeds them into my position/velocity vi.
The vi I attached is built to work with my "bitflow alta frame grabber" so feel free to ask questions if anything is not understood.
My new task has been to develop a way to only track one object at a time, and have that object be the same object in both cameras.
Questions or comments welcomed

Conflict resolution between Outlook and iPhone

Once again, when trying to resolve conflicts between my Outlook and my iPhone, I am told that the system can't access the server and conflicts can't be resolved. This error message commenced with IOS 5 and one could expect it to be resolved by now.
This is today's issue but, perhaps someone can explain that even when hitting iCloud refresh, appointments don't always transpose to my iPhone and almost never to my iPad2. This has been ongoing for some months and, mostly, I ignore it but, every now and again, I feel bound to process.
My iPhone has settings for three calendars, including birthdays. I wonder why the iPad 2 doesn't have the same options?
Do I feel better for saying all this? Not really.
Cheers
Ron

You choose which one you want to keep. You can not merge the two entries.
Your Palm pilot would not allow you to do this either in a note. It's one or the other. If you had created items in a to do list (reminders for example), each line item is a separate record. In notes, each note is a single piece of data. If you change both, you end up with a conflict, which is what happened.

Matching, syncing between iTunes and iPhone

I am "lucky" to be one of the new iPhone 5 owners, after switching back from two years with android. Part of the reason for my switch was iTunes Match, which has been a constant confusing dissappintment.
After several iPhone restores, lengthy phone calls to Apple support (who had no idea what to do), I am still stuck as to what is going wrong with my iPhone and its syncing between itunes match and my local (mac) itunes.
Essentially, I understood (both from reading online and apple support) that I could turn match OFF on my iphone, and then sync playlists accross from my Mac. Then, I could turn my iPhone's Match ON, and it would warn me about replacing the library, but it would allow me to play my synced playlists offline, and stream the rest of my cloud music. I was somehow using this method for a few days, before today's sync changed things again. (I didnt change settings)
At this current stage, itunes match is enabled, and my computer has just finished syncing with my iphone. My iphone says it has no locally stored songs, the computer says my iphone has 19 locally stored songs (with match enabled.) I have tried various ways of syncing, enabling and disabling match on my iphone, and no combination i have tried has successfully synced my data accurately.
Side note: Apple also didnt know why after the second sync between my iphone and mac the mac song playcounts changed dramatically. (ie: from 120 plays per song to 700+ plays - And i hadnt played them obviously).
Note: All software is up to date. Screenshot here http://cl.ly/image/0y162Q2C1c2w shows status after fresh wifi-sync. (incorrect values for free space etc)
tl;dr
I am trying to sync playlists from my mac to my iPhone 5, and then have my iphone stream/(download) the rest of the music I dont sync across through iTunes Match.
It seems there are some bugs in iTunes/iOS 6 to do with syncing. iTunes displays different information about my iPhone, to what is in the iPhone's settings menu. EG: Itunes says there are 19 songs on my iphone, my iphone says there are no songs on it.
This sounds like a bit of a ramble, but its one of the more important issues/problems i am having with the new iPhone. Hope someone can help, or has advice!

What you are trying to do is clear but iTunes Match / IOS 6 does not work that way.
You can sync playlists from computer to iDevice using the options under the music tab for your iDevice on the computer. This will provide a local copy on the iDevice of each Song included in each Playlist selected for sync.
With iTunes Match / IOS 6, as Songs are played from the iCloud (ie not those already downloaded in playlists) IOS 6 does in fact 'download' the Song to a local cache. In theory this cache should be managed by IOS 6 such that it does not overload your iDevice memory - Apple have not chosen to share exactly how this operates.
Given your notes above would suggest starting from a refresh restore on the iPhone 5 with all synchronisation performed afresh and iTunes Match switched on.

Hotmail not syncing between MacBook and iPhone/iPad

I'm 3 days into my new MacBook Pro, which replaced a PC laptop running Outlook. With my old system, I coud check my Hotmail account in Outlook, and the messages would no longer be marked as new on my iPhone/iPad, and vice versa. With the MacBook, my iCloud email syncs well between all three devices. My Hotmail remains in sync between my iPhone & iPad, but not on my MacBook. Is there any way to fix this?

No, Hotmail can only be accessed via POP3 on your Mac. Pop accounts do not synchronize. Microsoft provide Active Sync services on a mobile device but chose not to for Macs.
