IWork for iOS not syncing via iCloud

Our new iMac came with the “free” iWork for OSX apps, so I decided to give iCloud syncing between OSX and IOS devices another try.
I went to iCloud.com and created a simple document in Pages, Numbers and Keynote. I then checked to see if these three documents “showed up” on our iMac, MBP, iPhone 5s and iPad mini. Syncing the three iWork documents worked fine on the iMac and MBP. But the syncing results to iWork iOS apps on our iPhone and iPad were pretty abysmal. In both cases only ONE (out of three) of the iWork apps synced: Keynote on the iPad and Pages on the iPhone.
Since at least one of the documents synced correctly on each of the iOS devices, I obviously have the right iCloud account info., etc. And I assure you that all three apps had/have their little green switches/sliders set to “on" in the Settings>iCloud>Documents and Data. Two days should be enough time to sync even on a slow internet connection. Syncing iWork for IOS documents was working before I turned off iCloud>Documents and Data syncing several months ago because I didn’t have iWork for OSX at the time and had no need to sync iWork documents between the iPhone and iPad.
So what gives? Interestingly the two iWork for iOS apps that synced correctly, were the only apps that asked to use iCloud when they launched. And these were the only two apps that had not been launched since their last update. Could it be that iWork for IOS apps don’t pay attention to changes in the iCloud Documents and Data sync settings if syncing has been previously turned off?

Numbers and Pages are not syncing with iCloud on my iPhone or iPad, except for one occurrence in five days. Changed documents sit there with an arrow icon.
Hardware is iPhone 5S running iOS 7.1.2 and iPad Air running 7.1.2
Latest update of Numbers and Pages. I deleted and reinstalled Numbers on the iPad without any change however this did seem to bring the esisting documents down to the device from iCloud.
I have an internet connection. I have tried turning 4G on and off, setting up a hotspot on either device so that the other has a wireless connection but this has not fixed the problem.
I have tried restarting both devices.
i have tried turning Use iCloud off but this only worked once.
Data roaming is on and cellular data is on on both devices.
Settings/iCloud/Documents & Data/Numbers is turned on and Settings/iCloud/Documents & Data/Pages is turned on on both devices.
Settings/Numbers/Use iCloud is on and Settings/Pages/Use iCloud is on on both devices.
Looking at Settings/iCloud/Manage Storage/Numbers shows there are documents.
i am currently travelling, hence the 3G/4G. At home, on my wireless network (based on an ADSL connection) it will often sync sporadically enough that it is not much of an issue, just an irritation. However this total lack of syncing over the past five days is getting to be pretty unamusing.

Macbook pro calendar not syncing (via iCloud) with iPhone 4s

After looking through a few discussions I see some users having issues in syncing their calendars (from their computer) on to their iphone.
I recently upgraded to Mountain Lion and this seems to be the key issue.
I was showed from an Apple genius that when syncing via icloud (and to avoid duplicate calendar entries) is to uncheck sync, contacts and calendars.
Which I have and I do have icloud "ON" in my phone. But whenever I update my calendar entries on my Apple laptop it no longer syncs to the iphone.
Would anyone have any leads as to why it's no longer syncing? I'm pretty good at troubleshooting but I'm at a loss with this one.
thanks in advance Aimee

My calendar items are not syncing via iCloud.

My calendar items are no longer syncing from my iPhone to my iMac via iCloud. In Settings - iCloud, my iPhone says that Calendars are syncing. iTunes on my iMac says the same thing. On my iMac, iCloud settings won't let me check Calendars, though. My iPad and iPhone are syncing just fine.

but I've restarted my iPhone just the other day (for a different reason) and it didn't affect the iCloud calendar... don't know why it did today,
Because "resetting" like I suggested is not the same as "restarting".
You wouldn't know how to get iCal to update on a iMac that doesn't have Lion installed, would you?
Unfortunately, you need a Mac running Lion v10.7.2
You're welcome

Address book not syncing via iCloud ....

Hey All,
So i've read some other posts saying to make a backup, and then remove it via sys preference, uncheck contacts, delete them, and then re-check the box, that hasnt worked
here is my current setup that I use everyday
iMac 1 - Home
iMac 2 - Office
iPhone
My phone and iMac 1 have the same sync, I created 2 more "categories" on iMac2 and added a bunch of contacts to that group (all 3 devices are using the same username / password) - however, iMac1 and iphone do not get these new contacts / groups, no matter what
any suggestions?

FYI, iCloud DOES NOT SYNC, you subscribe to it and that makes it very different from sync systems (including Mobile Me)
I just moved, yesterday, from MobileMe to iCloud. I have an iMac, a MacBook Air, an iPhone 4, and the original iPad.
Would you be kind enough to elaborate on your statement that I have quoted, above? I fear I don't understand the difference between sycning to MobileMe and subscribing to iCloud.
I am about to make my first change to my Address book and am unsure where to make it: on iCloud, my iMac, my MacBook, etc. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks,
Bob

Calendar not syncing via iCloud

I'm have sync issues with iCloud:
I have multiple calendars on my desktop app. This is where I keep track of all my dates. I have activated all the proper settings (as far as I can tell) for syncing across all devices. (iMac, iPhone, iPad) All devices are up to date. I checked the settings via iTunes on the iPhone and it declares I am set up for iCloud syncing. Same with iPad. I check the settings on the devics themselves and all iCloud syncing is activated.
If I go to the desktop version and display the calendars on the left bar I see three groupings. First is headed "iCloud" and it is all the calendars I created. Second group is ALSO headed "iCloud" and it contains four generic calendars plus the one from the first group that is being synced to all devices. The third group is "Other" with US Holidays and Birthdays; also which I did not create. Only that one calendar which shows up in the first two groups--and does actually sync to my mobiles--had the broadcast icon alongside it; that one and the "Birthdays" calendar have it. So why are these the only calendars with that logo (presumably denoting iCloud broadcasting/sharing)? Obviously I didn't set that one calendar to sync. According to my devices my calendars are in sync.
This has me flummoxed.

IWork on iPad not syncing with iCloud Drive

iWork on my iPad – as well as iLife, I think – are refusing to sync to the iCloud Drive. I have tried logging in and out of my iCloud account. I have also ensured that "iCloud" is enabled on each app's individual settings (though the switch occasionally turns itself off). Can someone please assist me with this issue?
Thanks!

Just checked again on laptop and nothing is synching on there either now. Since iOS 6.0.1 it looks like.

How do I access iwork for ios docs stored in icloud on all ios devices

How do I access ios-iwork icloud docs on all my ios devices?
ios 7.1.2 on all ios devices. Have zero access to my icloud docs on mobile devices since ios 7.0.

Make sure you are signed in to iCloud using the same AppleID as used for the files.
Settings app > iCloud > Documents&Data. Make sure each of the iWorks apps is turned on.
Go to the settings for each app and make sure (Use iCloud)
For 2 or 3 above, if they are already on, turn them off and then back on.

MinBox for Mac, Not Receiving Via iCloud?

I've recently installed the MinBox service on my mid-2012 MacBook Pro running Yosemite (although that may be irrelevant given my exact issue). I send files via the MinBox application and I receive a confirmation email that I've received the file, but for some reason, iCloud accounts do not receive my MinBox emails, yet Gmail, Yahoo!, and other providers do. We've tried checking the Junk folder and adding the incoming email address to the address book, but nothing seems to work. Help!

I don't know, just a guess.

Keynotes is not syncing via iCloud with iPad

Folders appear in iCloud on my iMac, but suddenly not appearing in Keynotes on my iPad. Last Saturday, this all worked smoothly.

On your iPad tap Settings > iCloud
Turn Documents & Data off then back on.
Give iCloud a minute or two to re sync the data.

Will iWork on iOS ever sync using iCloud to my iWork on my MacBook Pro?

Most of my work i do in my macbook pro, it will be super cool if everything i do on my mac inmediatle appeared on my iDevices so i could keep on work on the document and viceversa.
Is this possible? Is this ever gonna happen?

Nobody knows. But as far as reviewers of OSX 10.8 beta have found out there is some new icloud document stuff included. So .. maybe this year when the OS comes out.

Events sync via iCloud from iPhone to iPad but not vice versa.

I just purchased an iPad 3 and have an iPhone 4s. In calendar, I can enter a date event on my phone and it will sync to the calendar on my iPad, however, if I enter a date event in calendar on iPad, it does not sync via iCloud to my iPhone. I have checked and made sure all of my stuff in settings is syncing via the cloud. Just cannot figure this out. I also made sure that the cloud is linked to same account only on both devices. Any help is appreciated.

I assume you are syncing cal's through iTunes. While I am not sure how to solve your problem, I'd recommend using Google Exchange to sync your contacts. It works in real time and uses your gmail credentials to do so.

When Using iOs 7.1.2 OSX 10.9.4 notes are not syncing via USB. When will this be fixed. Not interested in iCloud or IMAP solution.

When Using iOs 7.1.2 with mac OSX 10.9.4 mavericks notes are not syncing via USB.
When will this be fixed ? Not interested in iCloud or IMAP solution. it worked before, I can't really
understand why apple would change one of my favorite features. I use the notes feature to
capture quick ideas on the road and having it synched on my computer and my phone was very useful.
Previous blog posts elsewhere indicated this would be fixed in the latest rev of iOS, OSX and iTunes.
But alas after the recent update it's not. Really Annoying.

Then you won't be syncing your notes anymore.
Contacts and Calendars are the only things they restored.

IWork apps no longer sync with iCloud. I am on iOS 5.1,1, and this problem is several days old, before it was working fine. Anyone has an idea?

iWork apps no longer sync with iCloud. I am on iOS 5.1,1, and this problem is several days old, before it was working fine. Anyone has an idea?

Sadly this is not a new problem and I would not expect a forthcoming solution. I bought an iPad 3G and the iWork suite at the end of August and iCloud syncing worked fine. About the time Apple rolled out iOS 6 the syncing stopped working for me (without me upgrading or changing anything). It has never really worked since. Run iOS 5.1.1 on both the iPhone 4 and iPad 3G. The "geniuses" claim that Apples iOS 5 requirement is not correct and that I MUST upgrade both to ios 6 (although I know for fact that lots of folks STILL have the iCloud probs even with its 6. The last genius basically shrugged and non-verbally acknowledged the iCloud/iWork failing and suggested "just use Dropbox.". So why the **** did we pay for iWork!?!?!
Basically the iwork/iCloud Connnection is broken and I have yet to get a viable solution to repair the issue. Sorry for the bad news. For reference I have uninstalled/installed each iteration of iWork upgrades on each device without success. I have reset all settings multiple times, turned iCloud off/on repeatedly etc etc without success. I even wiped the iPad and restored from iCloud w/o intention (another Apple IPad "glitch" when I tried the "reset all settings" and the iPad decided to "erase all" instead. The genius said "it happens.")
Oddly, the Pages app is the only one that has marginally worked at times since the first probs. However it is basically broken and non-functioning. Certainly DO NOT trust vital documents to iCloud/iWork. I lost a number of work critical docs in this whole annoying, messy process of trying to get what Apple promised as easy....

IOS 8 numbers not syncing with icloud

I have noticed today that documents I edit on my iPad Air (latest iOS 8) in Numbers are not syncing to iCloud.
The up-arrow in the right hand corner of the document icon doesn't go away.
Syncing isn't working the other way either - changes I make on the Mac are not synced with the iPad.
This was all working fine last week and I haven't made any changes which might explain the problem.
I am running OS X Mavericks and editing iCloud documents through the iCloud.com website.
Anyone else having this problem?
Thanks
Rick

I found some advice online which fixed this for me.
in the iPad General settings, I performed a Reset Network Settings and then in Handoff & Suggested Apps, I turned off Handoff.
Perhaps this won't be a problem when Yosemite is released?
Try the above anyway!

I searched the internet and basically there is no one who has the answer (so far)
to how you delete the iphone photo library and misc albums
I have also had every iphone and I am not stupid.

Replying to my own post - heh. I downloaded iExplorer (http://www.macroplant.com/iexplorer/) which allowed me access to the files on the phone and there was the phantom movie in the DCIM folder. Deleted it, and all is well - although I still have 0.65gb of Other in iTunes.....
