Mac Calendar, Notes, and Tasks not syncing with Blackberry Bold
I recently purchased a Macbook Pro with out of the box with OS X Mountain Lion Installed. Downloaded and installed the latest version of the Blackberry Desktop Software. Quickly realized that I am unable the sync the Mac Address Book with my BlackBerry Bold 9930 while the iCloud is enabled. Once disabled, the my Address Book syncs like it used to.
Calendars, however, are not syncing. I have tried several ways, including disableing the iCloud and creating New Calendars both "On My Mac" as well as "On iCloud" without success. The error is as follows:
"There are no writable calendars available for syncing on this computer."
I am confident that once the solution to the writable calendars is found it will automatically resolve the syncing of Tasks too. Please advise how I can solve this problem.
Secondly, I noticed that Mountain Lion comes equipped with an independent Notes App. Initially I thought this to be a really cool new feature of Mountain Lion when compared to my previous experiences with Snow Leopard. For simplicity, I initially deleted all my old notes from the BlackBerry and transfered the notes files which were backed up from my previous MacBook Pro to the BlackBerry. The tranfer occured without a hitch. A few days later, I realized that eventhough my notes were syncing without a hitch, my edits were not being saved. I.e. edits made on the Mac were not syncing forward to the BlackBerry and vice versa. So I lost some content. When trying to trouble shoot the problem I realized that the Desktop Software was programed to sync with "Apple Mail Notes" on the Mac, and not the Notes App. So bascially, the notes were syncing from the wrong source and everytime I synced them, the notes on the Blackberry were being replaced by the original notes that I had moved over from my Old Mac. How can I re-set/re-program the Desktop software to sync with the notes in the Notes app? Or, where can I access these "Apple Mail Notes" So that I can make edits and add/delete notes so that they sync accurately?
Help!
Thanks.

Doesn't look like there's a way to sync BlackBerry MemoPad memos with Apple Notes.
Apparently Apple's Notes app doesn't talk to Apple's Sync Services (older versions of Apple Mail do) - BlackBerry Desktop talks to the Apple apps using Sync Services. Sadly Notes still isn't playing nice, so BlackBerry can't sync notes.
p.s. Microsoft Outlook 2011 DOES talk to Sync Services, but it only syncs my memo headers, and no text. *curls into ball*

I have been waiting for this software for months. I bought a Mac in July and checked specifically whether it would have desktop support for my lovely Bold. Everyone told me that RIM would release this in Sept. So I was happy. I have not been as productive as I wanted to be over that last few months without being able to sync all my contacts and calender appnts etc but hey I let that go.
MY ISSUE is - I cannot sync at all - I have downloaded the software and it just hangs, hangs hangs when I try and sync - I have spent all day trying to sort it out. I wonder if RIM will refund me my 1 day consulting rate?? I am fed up with just seeing a half blue line hanging.
ANyway please someone out there help me!!
WCan you try syncing each section separately and see what happens?
It would help to know if it is hanging when syncing contacts, or calendars, or notes, or tasks, or music.
Try to have only one sync section enable at a time, and then syncing. -
Outlook 2007 Calendar not syncing any more with Blackberry Bold
I am looking for possible causes to a problem that started some time over the last 2 weeks. My BB has been running 4.6.0.162 (put out by Rogers, my provider) and I'm using the 4.6 Desktop Manager.
Until then, whenever I'd sync my BB Bold with my Outlook 2007 Calendar (on Vista), everything (Calendar, Memo, Contacts & Tasks) would sync with no problems.
Since that time, (although I didn't realize it at first) calendar appointment items that were entered on one side would not be synced on the other side, i.e: BB calendar appointment items would stay on the BB, Outlook 2007 calendar appointment items would stay on the PC. Everything else syncs OK. In fact, new tasks that have a due date will be added to the other side's calendar with no problems!
I've tried different things, including rebooting both sides, deleting the calendar file on the BB, etc., but to no avail.
Any suggestions would be appreciated!
Thanks.how many calendars do you have on your device?

TS4002 iCloud for email is not on my Mac. How can I get email and iCal to sync with iphone and ipad.
iCloud for email is not on my Mac. It should be under Internet and wireless in System Preferences but it is not. Basically I am trying to get iCloud running successfully on my Mac for email and Calendar so that it will sync with my iPad and iPhone. I was an MobilMe customer and I've been having trouble with this conversion to iCloud. Thanks.
I too was a mobileme user and have just migrated to iCloud on mackbook pro w/OS 10.7.4. Transition caused my sent mailboxes to rearrange themselves so that I have no comprehensive 'sent' mailbox as I did previously and the view on both incoming and outgoing mailboxes keeps rearranging itself no matter how many times I set preferences. One result is that search function no longer works. Is anyone else having problems like this? All was fine for a week after transition but after having an evening when my password was repeatedly rejected I had to log in and out of iCloud (as directed by tech support) and w/in an hour or so the mailbox problem began.

When the phone is connected to the computer in iTunes, go to the Info tab and select Outlook as the source for Contacts and Calendars. Tasks will not sync, but Notes can be selected to sync as well.

Why does Apple not support syncing Entourage Notes and Tasks with the iPhone?
I'd like to know why Apply syncing does not support notes and task syncing with the iPhone. It used to when I had a Balckberry and used a third party sync app.
I bought the iPhone (4S) thinking that syncing would be smoother and have less problems than I was having with the Blackberry and third party sync software. Are there any plans to support this?

Are you running Windows or OSx?
Normally I run OS X, but on a whim I tested iCloud on Windows and was able to get Outlook to read and create Notes. It supposedly supports Tasks too, but I can't figure out how to use Outlook.
I suggest reposting your question to the iCloud for PC forum: https://discussions.apple.com/community/icloud/icloud_on_my_pc
or the iCloud for iOS forum: https://discussions.apple.com/community/icloud/icloud_on_my_ios_device -
Microsoft Outlook does not come up as an option to Sync Calendar, Memos and Tasks
I am on my 3rd Blackberry and just moved from a Bold to a Torch 9810. I have never had a problem syncing previous models with Microsoft Outlook unti now. I have not been able to sync with Microsoft Outlook (hooked up to my computer via USB cable). When I go to Organizer and Configure Settings, then Select Calendar then Setup, I get three "Available Desktop Applications" choices to synchronize with:
None,
ASCII Import/Export
Yahoo
....but NO Outlook option!
I have explored all of the help files ofr BB desktop Software, but nothing is pertinant to my v6.0 BB Desktop. I am running the Torch 7.0 software. This should be so easy, I can't believe I ma having a problem with it!Is your Outlook still in contact with the BB server? Check outbox and see if there are any emails queuing. Your Desktop Software also has the option for Email "BES" which on works?
As for the address book try to get an updated outlook connector

Are there ANY memos/notes apps that will sync with Mac, NOT "cloud"?
In desperation I got BlueMarbleSOftware.com's "Memos" app to move memos from my now defunct Palm to my iPhone. I then discover that "Memos" can't create a new category on the iPhone. Grr. It also uses a Google Files account to move them. I keep sensitive information in my memos and I'm NOT going to put that out in the "Cloud". So, this isn't working out well.
My question:
Is there ANY iPhone/OS X application pair out there that will allow me to sync my notes/memos to my Mac and not to the Cloud? iTunes is a pretty poor sync mechanism since it can only allow me access to iTunes type stuff. iCal, while not very good, at least syncs with the calendar on the iPhone and contacts also sync with OSX. However, nothing that I can find will sync notes with the Mac directly. Has anyone out there found something that will? I'm happy to pay for it if it DOESN'T go through the "Cloud".
I love my iPhone's capabilities, but Apple's restrictions on its use are dimming my enthusiasm a bit about the iPhone being a killer "do everything" box.
Thanks,

This sounds ideal - My read of it wasn't perfectly clear - Does it sync through the USB cable that the Apple sync uses or though a wireless connection? How good is the Mark/Space notes app? Apple's notes doesn't allow grouping by category, everything goes into one place, is the M/S notes app better than that?
Thanks! This is looking perfect!

Ovi Suite Calender And Tasks / Notes Sync Problem
I am using a N79. I have downloaded the latest version of Ovi Suite to my Windows 7 Home Premium 64 Bit operating system. But now I am having a problem with sync. Calender and tasks , notes can not be synced with Ovi Suite. A notification window opens saying that reconnect and connect again USB or bluetooth. When I do this, nothing happens and sync again fails. I uninstalled Ovi Suite and installed Nokia PC Suite. No problem is seen with sync. Before my Windows 7, I was using Vista but there was no problem with Ovi Suite sync. By the way there is no problem with contacts, photos, bookmarks, music sync with Ovi Suite.
What may be the problem? How can I solve the problem.....????
THANKS!!!!!!!Yes I've checked the link too. But I still can't sync the notes (and only the notes) from my Nokia E65.
OVI Suite will happily copy all other content at start up but failes when it starts to copy the notes each time giving the "Reconnect USB...." message with error number 83860005 (if that means anything to anyone).
After many attempts yesterday I copied the notes to my Outlook, but again I now get the same mesage and it won't update! The only thing that I can think of is that some of my notes are pretty long and that there maybe a limit to the number of characters copied befor the process terminates??? -
Syncing contacts, notes and tasks between iphone and Macbook
I have an iphone 4 and a brand new MacBook Pro and I understand how to sync contacts between the two and with my gmail contacts, however there are still some contacts on my phone that are not on my MacBook. I would like to know how I can keep my contacts up to date on both my iphone and Macbook without having to manually enter contacts from one to the other, ex: if I delete a contact on my phone, I want it to be deleted on my Macbook too. Is there a way to do this? Also is there a way to do the same thing with notes and tasks; between the iphone and macbook???

Q10 sync outlook notes and tasks

I find it shocking that this "issue" has still not been resolved. Why do you keep giving people reasons to switch? Tasks and notes are integral to many people's BB experience...
