ITunes on Windows 7 - syncing calendars and mail

I have successfully installed iTunes on my Windows 7 machine but cannot get it to recognize Win Live Mail as a valid e-mail and calendar application. When I go to the "info" tab in Sync, both applications show "No application .." I can find no way to encourage iTunes to go find the right matching applications. Mail and calendars are both working fine in Win Live Mail, but iTunes does not recognize them.
Is this a Win 7 compatibilty issue? How do I fix it? No upgrades/updates seem to be available. I have iTunes 9.0.2.25 installed.
Thanks for any help!

I think it's because Win Live Mail isn't supported:
+Tunes has the ability to sync your contacts and calendars from Microsoft Outlook or Outlook Express and contacts from Microsoft Address Book to any iPod with a display screen1 (Note: Outlook 2003 or later is required to sync contacts and calendars from Outlook).+

Sync stuck at syncing "calendars" and "mail accounts..." How can I get past it?

It just started happening like two days ago when I updated to 6.1.3. I could've sworn that I already had it, but something updated a few days ago... Anyways, I unchecked "Calendars" and it got stuck and "mail accounts," so I guess it's something to do w/ Outlook or my Google Accounts. I don't know. Help??

I did not put the OS info in my question because I am not sure what I have. I upgraded to Lion so that I could use the cloud between my devices, however I do not know the number.
Apple menu item->About this Mac and the version is listed there. Click on that and get the build number. Click again and get the machine's serial number.
I am stuck on the white screen. Any other advice?
Start with a google search for white screen mac. This one might do the trick: http://www.mac-forums.com/forums/apple-desktops/138137-imac-wont-get-passed-whit e-screen.html

HT1386 I sync all songs, photos and videos between my computer and iPod classic with no problems, but when I get to sync info I get this message: "iTunes cannot sync Calendar and contacts to iPod. Try logging out of Windows adn then logging back in".

Correct. When you update via iTunes all synced media that is not in your iTunes library will be lost.
As IO said before:
You can redownload most iTunes pruchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
I do not think it included audio books.

HT1535 sync calendars and contacts to laptop- Windows 8.1

I just bought a new laptop running Windows 8.1 and tried to sync calendars and contacts to my iPhone and iPad to the laptop. Contacts were OK, but my iPhone has developed a second calendar called 'Outlook Calendar' and none of the entries in 'Calendar' [which is the one I use] will sync.

Syncing calendar and contacts from windows phone 8...

How do I set up my windows phone to sync calendar and contacts with BT mail
Thanks

Outlook 2003 and 2007 is supported. Outlook 2002 is not supported.
You must select Outlook for syncing contact information and calendar events under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences.
And copied from my previous post.
+If Outlook does not include any contact information or calendar events, before syncing enter one contact and one calendar event. Make these up if needed which can be deleted later.+
+This should provide a merge prompt when syncing, which you want to select.+

Calendar and Mail won't sync with iCloud.

They synchronize fine between iMac and iPad. Contacts, Notes and Reminders are the only categories that do sync with iCloud on my iMac. I am running the latest Mountain Lion upgrade.

If I understand what you are saying, iCloud seems like its over-hyped and is pretty useless for Mail and Calendar. It makes no sense to me to have Calendar and Mail available on iCloud if it doesn't show the same Calendar and Mail that is on your iMac and iPad.
Yes, my Calendar syncs with Google as well as on the iPad and iMac. Why shouldn't it also sync with iCloud?
Because it's a Google Service not an iCloud service, you can still sync it to your Mac and your devices, just not using iCloud.

Can you sync calendar and contacts over the air to...

I'm considering getting an E71 or E63, but apart from email I really want to be able to sync calendar (and contacts)over the air, not just from to/from Outlook on my PC - is this possible ? It's not really explained clearly in any of the specs and doco I've been reading.
Also, if I receive a calendar invitation as email, will it appear on the Nokia and can I accept it, and is it written to the calendar locally and at the POP server, or is this kind of behaviour only supported by Windows Mobile devices?

POP (post-office protocol) is only for email retrieval (and SMTP, simple message transfer protocol, for sending).
If you want to sync calendar/contacts, then it is done over SyncML (synchronization markup language).
Also "proprietary" synchronization protocols, like Microsoft's ActiveSync allows message/contacts/calendar/tasks synchronization.
Nokia supports ActiveSync over-the-air through the Mail for Exchange software.

Hi,
Really **bleep** off with this issue in synchronizing , I move back to my old PC suite that worked fine .
I expect our NOKIA provider to be back on their code and solve this issue.
At least, one mail to me warning me of corrections with this issue and improved performances would not be considered by me as spam but as consideration to users .
Sorry dear developpers but either your specs were uncomplete, at least performance criterias were undefined and you businees acceptance test were unproperly managed. I would not like to be the project manager in charge of ! Just before Christmas, providing such a release will make Santa Klaus quite unhappy top him .

How to sync calendars and contacts between ios 3.1.3 and Mountain Lion?

I have a 1st generation iPod touch under iOS 3.1.3 and a MacBook Pro under Mountain Lion 10.8.3 with iTunes 11.0.1.
Since the upgrade to Mountain Lion syncing calendars and contacts between the iPod Touch and the Mac no longer works.
I don't want my personal information in Apple's or anybody else's Cloud and anyway iOS 3.1.3 can't use Apple's Cloud.
So I can no longer sync without a) replacing my iPod Touch which itself works perfectly well and does not need replacing and b) using Apple's Cloud which I do not wish to use for personal data.
This is a MAJOR AND DAMAGING step backwards by Apple, which they should correct IMMEDIATELY if they wish to keep their increasingly fed-up older customers.
Time-wasting work-around:
As I never trust operating system upgrades to not destroy something that "just works", I have Snow Leopard still on another bootable partition on my machine, and Lion on a bootable partition on an external Thunderbolt disc.
In order to sync, I backup Calendars and Contacts under Mountain Lion under which I do all my normal work, switch to either Snow Leopard or Lion, update iCal and Address Book from the backup files saved under Mountain Lion, sync the iPod Touch, and switch back to Mountain Lion.
Lots of time wasted with 2 successive re-boots, but at least HERE IS A SOLUTION THAT WORKS - I have seen lots of posts protesting bitterly about this totally unacceptable backwards step - what on earth do Apple hope to gain from this? More sales of newer equipment to replace perfectly functioning older ones? Certainly not from many of us.

Send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.

How to sync calendar and contact with Galaxy S2 and iCal and Address Book, how to sync calendar and contact with Galaxy S2 and iCal and Address Book

I have a Galaxy S2, gmail account, hotmail account and want to know the best way to be able to sync calendar and contacts from the Galaxy S2 with iCal and Address Book. I want to be able to make changes on any device and be able to sync the changes. Hotmail is my main email account and would prefer to use tha account but I know that the Galaxy prefers Google. Any ideas?

You have several ways to sync your phone to a mac.
You can use Samsung Kies for mac. You can download it here.
You can also use Google for it. Open Adress Book, click Adress Book on the left top of the screen, click Prefferences and open the Accounts tab. You'll see a "Synchronize with Google" checkbox, click it, enter you mail and password and you are good to go.
On iCal go to Preferences (top left, click iCal to see it), open the Accounts Tab, you'll see a blank list on the left, at the bottom of it there is a "+" sign, click on it and select Google on the Account Type dropdown list, enter your account details and you are done.
Third way to do it is by using third party software such as SyncMate.
Hope any of these alternatives solve your problem!
(The iCal and Address Book instructions are for Snow Leopard, but it should be almost the same on Lion)

My 6th Generation Nano Shuts down my Thinkpad, I've tried uninstalling iTunes, turning off auto sync'ing and restoring my ipod, but every time I plug in my iPod, my whole pc goes blue and then reboots in safe mode. Please Help. Thanks.

Hello kidmango,
I am going to have to agree with planb77. Look into other drivers in your computer causing the issue, not just the nano's drivers.
It is possible that security software is the culprit. Use this:
iTunes: Troubleshooting security software issues
You may have to restore your computer to a previous point. From before the issue started. Contact computer manufacture or Windows for steps, or do a search with a search engine.
I would test the ipod on a known good computer to see if its the ipod is the issue. My gut says no. You can set a reservation at an Apple Retail Store. Apple.com/retail .You can also test a known good ipod on your computer.
Hope this helps.

IPhone 3G doesn't sync calendars and contacts via mobileme

Hi.
Since the initial setup, my new iPhone 3G doesn't sync up with MobileMe.
After some trouble in the beginning MM works fine now between my Powerbook and my iMac but although my MM-settings on the iPhone are correct and set to sync calendars and contacts, it simply doesn't.
I have tried everything on the iPhone:
Push (nothing happens).
Disconnecting push, using manual or automatic (15 min, 30 min, 1 hour).
Deleting my MobileMe account on the phone, thus erasing all contacts and calendars, then retyping everything correctly (and getting no message to suggest otherwise).
ITunes too tells me, that calendars and contacts are sync'ed through MM and I can't sync iCal and Contacts using the cable either.
Also, when I open System/MobileMe/Synchronize/Advanced on either of my computers to see the list of devices connected to my MobileMe, it only shows my computers on that list - not the iPhone!
Can anyone help me with this or do I just have to wait for Apple to realize that MM doesn't work on iPhone 3 (2.2) - which kind of defeats the whole purpose of getting it in the first place?
Thanks,

This is a list of registered computers with your MM account, not a list of registered devices. Your iPhone will not be shown in the list of registered computers, because it isn't a computer.
I thought so, but wanted to mention it in case I was wrong.
Have you tried turning Contacts and Calendars off for over the air syncing with your MM account preferences on your iPhone followed by turning both back on?
I have tried everything I can think of, and that includes the above.
When doing this, however, the phone prompts me to accept that all calendar events and contacts on the phone are erased in order to sync new information from MobileMe.
I accept, but trouble is that no new info comes the other way, although the "spinning wheel" is running for ages.
I can again say, that the iPhone has been set up to MobileMe using the correct password and addres.
Neither Push, nor set intervals or manual sync have worked at any time.
The only way, I can put my calendar and contacts onto it is by deleting the MobileMe account on the phone and syncing via USB

How Do I Get Rid Of The “Other” Data Stored On My iPad Or iPhone?
http://tinyurl.com/85w6xwn
With an iOS device, the “Other” space in iTunes is used to store things like documents, settings, caches, and a few other important items. If you sync lots of documents to apps like GoodReader, DropCopy, or anything else that reads external files, your storage use can skyrocket. With iOS 5/6/7, you can see exactly which applications are taking up the most space. Just head to Settings > General > Usage, and tap the button labeled Show All Apps. The storage section will show you the app and how much storage space it is taking up. Tap on the app name to get a description of the additional storage space being used by the app’s documents and data. You can remove the storage-hogging application and all of its data directly from this screen, or manually remove the data by opening the app. Some applications, especially those designed by Apple, will allow you to remove stored data by swiping from left to right on the item to reveal a Delete button.
