Mac OS X Sync Client!!!

Blackberry has a native sync client for the Mac OS X that sync with iTunes, Calender, Tasks, Memos, and Contacts that works fine. Why will Palm not make one? We are being shortchanged!!!

The Palm Pre was designed to sync to "the cloud," but it also is programmable. Third parties are racing to develop client software to sync to a PC/Mac. Here's the first one for Mac and it might still be the only one: The Missing Sync for Palm Pre, http://www.markspace.com/products/pre/mac/palm-pre-sync-overview.html (it's $40).

Iphone and Ical on mac do not sync anymore. All my events are in the iphone calendar! How do I backup iphone calendar, and how do I fix the syncronizing problem?

After getting iCloud the iCal on my mac does not sync with my iPhone calendar. All of my calendar notes are in my iPhone (while the mac's Ical remains empty) so I need to backup the iphone version. How?
Itunes says that "your calendars are being syncronized with iphone using icloud" - but the mac's ical does not show any of the new events I have added on my iphone.
I would like to install the new update on my iphone, but I am afraid to do it without knowing that I will be able to restore my iphone calendar. I have made calendar events for many years to come, I and will not risk losing them!
I have been looking for tips online, but the solutions usually suggest that I backup the ical on the mac and start fresh using this version. In other words overwrite iphone calendar with the ical from the mac. Which is not an option. What can I do?

Moments in Photos are the new Events, i.e. groupings of photos sorted by date taken.
When the iPhoto Library was first migrated to Photos there was a folder created in the sidebar titled iPhoto Events and all migrated iPhoto Events (which are now Moments) are represented by an album in that folder. To open the sidebar if it's not already open use the Option+Command+S key combination.
There's a way to simulate events in Photos.
When new photos are imported into the Photos library go to the Last Import smart album, select all the photos and use the File ➙ New Album menu option or use the key combination Command+N. Name it as desired. It will appear just above the iPhoto Events folder where you can drag it into the iPhoto Events folder
When you click on the iPhoto Events folder you'll get a simulated iPhoto Events window.
The downside to the simulation is that the Albums/Events can only be sorted automatically by Title. But they can also be sorted manually, either in the sidebar or in the folder's window at the right.
Ask Apple for more sorting options in Photos via https://www.apple.com/feedback/photos.html.

I want to reserve a static IP address on my Airport extreme. What is the difference between reserving by MAC Address and DHCP Client ID?

I want to understand the differences in the way you can reserve a static address for a device on the network. I had previously set the device itself to an address and then reserved it with DHCP Client ID, which I thought was just the devices static addresss. I'm not sure if this was in fact correct or just happend to work. I know what a MAC address is, but I'm not really sure what the DHCP Client ID is. So it would be great if someone could clarify it, and the difference between reserving address by MAC Address or DHCP Client ID.

A MAC address is a unique identification consisting of letters and numbers in a form that looks like this:
xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx
Every network device has a MAC address, which can be found on a label on the bottom or back of the device. Apple calls this the Ethernet ID.
A DHCP Client ID is an optional name that you can assign to a device. For example, on your Mac....
Open System Preferences (gear icon on the dock)
Open Network
Click on Ethernet
Click Advanced at the lower right
You may be able to edit the DHCP Client ID here....for example.....you could enter MJ500's MacBook in the space provided. That would be the Client ID of your Mac.

How to get books onto iPad when iBooks for Mac refuses to sync.

I have around 300 books which were originally in the books section of iTunes. Since upgrading to Mavericks the new iBooks for Mac is moved them all over and I ma now unable to access most of them on my iPad despite making sure all settings are correct. None of the books I use for study created by iBooks Author will now transfer. The only ones that seem to are those recently purchased from iTunes. Anybody out there found a solution yet. Apparently Apple admit that only books purchased from iTunes will sync, but I need to be able to get them on my iPad. I don't care if they sync or not.

There are a few categorical places one must visit in order to synchronize iBooks for Mac with IOS iBooks. There is no need to remove the iBook for Mac application.
System Preferences > iCloud > Documents and Data is enabled
IOS Settings > iBooks > Sync Collections (enabled) and optionally Sync Bookmarks (enabled)Assumption that iCloud is enabled on the IOS device with documents and data enabled
iBook for Mac > Preferences > General: Sync: Sync bookmarks, highlights, and collections across devices
iTunes
Pick your IOS Device under DEVICES in the left nav
Choose Books along the top toolbar
In the Books panel, choose one of the following
Books and PDF Files
Books only
PDF only
In the Sync Books panel
All Books
Selected BooksClick the box next to the books you wish to Sync
Select iTunes Sync
The books (and PDF) you selected above are now on your IOS device

Problem Syncing Outlook....says outlook sync client encountered problem

I have been syncing outlook calendar and contacts from my PC to my iPhone with no problems. I have version 1.1.2 on my iPhone and 7.5 or whatever the latest is on iTunes software. The syncs were fine until recently and now I cant sync and get an error message that says "outlook sync client encountered problem" What could possibly have happened....I read some posts that say to go back to iTunes 7.3 etc....this has to be a common problem....any suggestions.

Here is an article from the apple support website that might help out.

On iPad go to Settings > General > Software Update and install any updates.

Some albums I put on my Mac to later sync with a Touch appears as seperate tracks and not a single album. How do I get them back together again other than a playlist. I do not want the tracks showing up as albums on the Touch?

Are your tracks pat of a collection? Different artists, but still one album? Then mark them a s acollection or set the album artist. See this guide on how to group separate tracks into albums:

Solution for Outlook for mac no longer syncing to iCloud?

I have a new iPhone 5s and am running Mavericks on my MacBook. I use Outlook for mac for my mail and contacts.
The new version of iTunes (since around mid October 2013) no longer syncs contacts and calendars from Outlook - and from searching forums online it seems that Outlook no longer syncs with iCloud.
When I log into www.iCloud.com this seems to be true as my iPhone calendar is consistent with the calendar I see on iCloud.com, so icloud seems fine.
The problem is that calendar appointments and contacts from Outlook on my mac do not sync through to iCloud - and I cannot work out how to acheive this - very frustrating.
Can anyone help or offer a suggestion?
Thank you!

Thanks Csound - I don't know the technical details - but until October all contacts and calendars were syncing from Outlook for mac through onto my iPhone and iPads - each time that I synced connected with iTunes.
The newer version of iTunes now no longer syncs these - so I'm stuck using Outlook on mac and an iPhone - but neither will talk to each other - the contacts and calendars don't swap.
Surely I'm not the only person with this problem - has anyone else found a workaround?
If you're using Outlook for mac how are you syncing info to icloud and back?
Whether through google or sending using iCloud mail, or whatever it might be.
Thank you

Mobile Sync Client does not save password properly

The Mobile Sync Client (simple_sync_android application provided with Oracle DMS) does not appear to save password correctly. When you select the checkbox to Save Password, my guess is that it stores an encrypted password but then does not return the decrypted version of the password. As a result login fails with the error
Encountered error: Server error, id = 2,001: "USER_INVALID in external auth; logon denied."
For details, check out the "My Experience" section at http://oracledms.blogspot.in/2012/08/sample-app-step-2-install-mobile-sync.html
Obvious workaround: Type in the password again and click Sync

When you connect the iPhone to sync with the new computer, a number of things will happen. If the new computer/iTunes does not contain any music, then yes, you will receive a prompt saying this iPhone is synced to another library, and if you continue, you will lose your music. However, you risk losing a number of other things, such as apps, contacts and calendar data. When you ask about photos, any photos that you have on the iPhone that were synced from the previous computer would also be lost. You need to save the photo folder from the old laptop and transfer that to the new desktop. You also need to sync the contacts and calendar to the same supported application that you were using in the past, such as Outlook, unless you are using an outside web-based sync, such as Google. Also, when you first connect the iPhone, it will make a backup, or at least make sure that it does before you attempt to sync, or you will not have a backup of some of the other things, such as mail settings, SMS, and the contents of the Camera Roll. I would import the photos from the camera roll to the new computer before trying to do anything else in iTunes.

What is the best way to have Mac setup for sync-ing 2 calendars? Any way to change? When we 1st got our Macbook we unknowingly set it up wrong--as 2 separate users, with separate everything. Good for contacts and email, bad for calendar, photos, music.

Unable to use proxy server with MAC OS X Anyconnect client

Hi All,
I have a VPN setup thru a Cisco 5520, Windows clients connect just find and the end users configure there browser to use our internal proxy servers. Users with the MAC OS X Anyconnect client can connect, they configure their Mac to use our proxy server, but the broswers will not work, clients can reach networks and resources behind the VPN gateway and have access to the Proxy(Tried a telnet to that hostname/port). Anyone run into this issue before? I am running ASA 8.3(2), Anyconnect(OS X) 3.1.01065.
Thank You

We had the same problem.
We are behind government firewall so I don't know which Cisco firewall is used but we are using AnyConnect to establish VPN from internet to LAN behind firewall. We have no problems with Windows. With Mac OS X connection through proxy didn't work with Safari and Chrome (both are using system Proxy setting), but it did work with Firefox (which has it's own Proxy).
Finally we found out that ethernet MTU size was the culprit. When we set it to manual, with size being 1347 (or less), proxy started to work.

"MobileSync stopped working" & "Yahoo Go Sync Client" error while syncing

I know the iTunes 9.1 update errors have been reported in this forum. Not sure if others are experiencing the same issues of syncing. I have an iPhone 3G and I sync my calendar and contacts via iTunes to my laptop. I use Microsoft Exchange for e-mail syncing not Mobile Me.
I am receiving the error "MobileSync stopped working" since the iTune 9.1 update. I am also getting Yahoo Go Sync Client error with the MobileSync error. I am running Windows Vista with MSOutlook 2007. I have restored my IPhone. I uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes on my laptop. I unstalled and reinstalled Apple Mobile Device Support via my PC's Control Panel. Nothing has worked.
Any suggestions / recommendations?

I agree that Apple has let their customer base down. And since they are introducing a new product you'd think they would be extra responsive right now. I feel like Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz. No one gets to see the wizard! I used to be able to sync my contacts with my Yahoo account but no more. I received the same error that is listed in the subject line. I resorted to creating a Google account which seems to be working. But iTunes locks up all the time and keeps trying to "contact yahoo" in the background even though I have it pointed to syncing with Google. I'm also now getting an error that I have not had to deal with since I had my first iPhone. The dreaded "no default mail client" error. I don't have Outlook only Outlook Express using Microsoft XP. Any suggestions would be appreciated in how to get rid of the last error. I can't remember how I finally got rid of that one as it's been several years now.

Can't connect to SquirrelMail with Mac OS X Mail client

I am working with an organization whose email is running on SquirrelMail. When I try to set it up as a new account in my Mac OS X Mail client, I choose IMAP, enter the email server name, password, etc. but once the account is created I keep getting the message, "Mail can't connec to the account... Enter the password." I have checked and double checked that the password is correct because I can log onto the account via the webmail portal. Any ideas on special configuration settings necessary for SquirrelMail on the Mac OS X Mail client?

Hello jsgrubb,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that you are trying to set up your email on your Mac but are receiving an alert. To ensure that the correct steps are being followed to set up the account, I would first recommend reading over the following attached article.
Mac Basics: Use Mail on your Mac - Apple Support
If you are still unable to set up the account, it may be necessary to contact the provider of the account to verify the correct Mail settings for the account.
Mail settings you might need from your email provider - Apple Support
Have a great day,
