Macbook pro not syncing with iphone/ipad photos

My iphoto on my Macbook Air has stopped updating photos from my phone. The ipad syncs them but the MBA doesn't. It stopped at the end of March and hasn't added any since then.. any ideas? Everything else syncs, ie contacts, calendar etc.
I've tried disabling Photo Stream in the System/iCloud preference pane and iPhoto's Photo Stream preference pane, rebooting and reenabling both as previously advised. This didn't work.
Thanks

Reset iOS devices and your Mac.
Tap Settings > iCloud
Switch Photos off then back on.
And one more time on your Mac. System Preferences > iCloud
Deselect the box next to Photos then reselect it.
Give iCloud a minute or two to re sync the data.

Messages on MacBook Pro not syncing with iPhone

Hi,
I'm using an iPhone 5 running IOS 8.3 and a MacBook Pro running 10.10.3.
In the past I have been using messages on my MacBook and my iPhone. If I sent a text via my phone, it showed up in messages on my Mac and vise versa. Since the iWatch has come out and I upgraded my IOS on my phone, the messages work on both devices but I cannot "see" them on both. In other words, if I start a conversation using messages on my mac, it works fine, but they don't show up on my phone. Same holds true in the reverse.
I have deleted the com.apple.ids.service.com.apple.madrid.plist from my User Library and rebooted. I double checked settings on my phone, and my apple ID and my cell phone number are set up for both sending and receiving. I turned my phone onto Airplane mode and back on, and restarted all devices multiple times.
While I'm not crippled and can send/receive messages from both devices, I would like to get them so conversations are showing up on both devices.
Any suggestions greatly appreciated!
TIA
Nancy

Mail from Macbook Pro not syncing with iPhone

I am trying to set up my Mail account (which is set with Gmail) from my computer to sync with my iPhone. Unfortunately the iPhone goes is synced with Gmail and says that I have over 2000 emails. How can I get my iPhone to sync with my Mail app from my computer?
Also, I have deleted the account from my iPhone, but it still shows up on my iTunes. When I sync the iPhone, the mail settings are put back into my iPhone. How can I erase the gmail settings from my iTunes?
Thanks for your help.

You don't sync account mailboxes and messages with the email client used on your computer for accessing the account via the iTunes sync process. You can transfer account setup info only from your computer to your iPhone via the iTunes sync process.
Using the iPhone's mail client to access an email account is no different from using the Mail.app on your Mac for accessing the account. With a POP account, new messages recieved at the incoming mail server are downloaded, and when accessing a POP account with a new email client for the first time, all messages that remain at the incoming mail served for the account will be downloaded as new messages, since the new email client being used has never accessed the account - in this case, with the iPhone's mail client.
With an IMAP account, all server stored mailboxes are kept synchronized with the server automatically with each email client used to access the account.
You deselect transferring the account settings for this account from your computer to your iPhone at the same place where you selected this - under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes.

IWork files do not sync with iPhone/iPad using iTunes

When trying to sync Pages, Numbers or Keynote documents by adding the files to the respective app category in iTunes >Apps >Apps >Documents and pressing Add..., I see the word "sync" on iPhone/iPad just for about a second and then the homescreen on iPhone/iPad reappears. But the files are not there (in Pages, Numbers or Keynote). Other apps I use work fine with this transfer method. What is the problem here?

Thanks for the suggestion, but I tried that to no avail.
I tried to toggle on and off every setting you can imagine and restarting. Deleting the apps and reinstalling.
Nothing.

How do I get my contacts on the MacBook Pro to sync with my iPad Mini? Cloud not doing it so far...

Hey guys, I've tried syncing my iPad Contacts with iTunes, but all I get is the old, outdated info. I also set it to sync with the iCloud, but - no change. I thought this was supposed to be easy!

Reset sync hstory. Open itunes. Click edit>preferences>devices>reset sync history. It deletes a log file. It doesn't delete and change contacts o the computer or device. This can help calendars too.

New MacBook Pro not working with iPhone remote

Hi all,
I absolutely cannot get the iPhone remote app to work with itunes for whatever reason!
it's driving me crazy never had any issues on my old macbook, its defo on the same wifi, i can ping it etc, I'm faily handy with OSX and the like as i'm a software developer, so I know it's not a firewall issue and the phone is on wifi.
it just doesn't pop up to let me enter the code in iTunes under devices when I'm trying to register the Phone with the machine,
for the record the phone has been synced with the itunes library in question and I have clicked the forget all remotes button in iTunes prefs, and the 'look for iphone remotes' box is checked
so I've pretty much done everything bar uninstall itunes, is that really necessary? is it worth deleting the itunes prefs file??
Thanks for any advice,
Cheers,
John

Have you tried wiping the remote app from the iphone and starting over ?

Mac not syncing with iPhone/iPad

Can someone help me? My Mac is acting up. Over the past 3 days, I have not been able to get my Mac to sync with my iphone or ipad like I have in the past. When I open up my calendar on Mac, it says it cant be refreshed and won't let me do a thing until I force it to quit. I input things on my reminders and notes on my Mac but it won't show up on my other 2 devices. But if I put stuff on my iphone/ipad it will show up on my Mac!? I've tried updating, shutting down, connecting with a USB. I don't know what else to do. I really don't want to have to delete all my stuff because its a lot! Help please!

Lost Safari Bookmarks on MacBook Pro after Sync with iPhone

I set up my iPhone to use MobileMe to sync with my two macs and other iphone (wife).
I lost all the Bookmarks on the computers within Safari.
1. What do I need to change to avoid this in the future?
2. Is there a place my Bookmarks have been automatically saved so I can restore? I have 'Time Capsule' and MobileMe.
If there is a way, can you explain?
Thank you

Don't know why that happened, but Safari Bookmarks are stored in ~/Library/Safari/bookmarks.plist (the ~ is shorthand for your home folder). You can use Time Machine to restore them.

Ipad air calender not syncing with iphone 5s calender

I create an event on my iphone 5s, it shows up on icloud but will not sync with my ipad air?
I have searched for a solution with no success
help please

Howdy andyq180,
Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities.
From your post I see that your iPad is not able to sync the iCloud calendar content from either iCloud.com or your other iOS device. To troubleshoot this, please follow the steps outlined below.
General troubleshooting
Check the System Status page to make sure there aren't any issues affecting iCloud Calendars.
Check your settings and preferences, because something may not be set up correctly. For example, having incorrect date and time settings can cause issues that are easily resolved by entering the appropriate settings.
Troubleshooting on iOS devices
First, confirm that you've turned on iCloud Calendar by tapping Settings > iCloud on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, then check that Calendars is turned on.
If you are having trouble with the Calendar app on an iOS device (iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch) and iCloud Calendar, try these steps, testing after each to see if the issue is resolved.
Make sure you've updated to iOS 5 or later. If your issue isn't resolved, try installing the latest version of iOS supported by your device. For instructions on setting up iOS for iCloud, see iCloud Setup.
Make sure your iOS device is online. Attempt to view www.apple.com in Safari. If you can't connect to the Internet, your iCloud calendars and events will not update in your Calendar application. Learn how to troubleshoot your Internet connection.
Open a secure website to test if ports 80 and 443 are accessible. Calendar requires port 443 access to iCloud to push and fetch updates to and from the iCloud Calendar servers.
If recent changes don't appear, try to refresh your calendars:
In iOS 7, open Calendar and tap the Calendars tab to load the Calendars list, then pull down on the list to refresh.
In iOS 6 or iOS 5, open Calendar and tap Calendars in the top-left corner to load the Calendars list. Then tap the Refresh button in the lower-left corner of the Calendars list window.
If you've recently made changes to your contacts' birthdays and are not seeing those changes reflected in your Birthdays Calendar, try to refresh your calendars. If you made the changes in the Contacts app on your Mac or at iCloud.com, it may take up to an hour for those changes to appear on your other devices.
If you add new events on your iOS device, but they do not update on iCloud.com or your other devices, confirm that you've added the event to an iCloud calendar:
In iOS 7, open Calendar and tap the event to view the Event Details. Tap the calendar name to confirm that you've saved the event to an iCloud calendar.
In iOS 6 or iOS 5, open Calendar and tap the event to view the Event Details. Tap Edit > Calendar to confirm that you've saved the event to an iCloud calendar.
You may want to verify your default calendar settings. If you want to create new events in an iCloud calendar, set that calendar to be your default calendar. You can modify Default Calendar settings in Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Default Calendar.
If you're using iOS 7, quit and restart the Calendar app:
Press the Home button twice to see preview screens of the apps you have open.
Find the Calendar preview screen and swipe it up and out of preview to quit the application.
Tap the Home button to return to your Home screen.
Wait a minute before reopening the Calendar app.
If you're using iOS 6 or iOS 5, quit and restart the Calendar app:
Press the Home button.
Double-click the Home button to open the multitasking menu.
Tap and hold the Calendar icon until it jiggles.
Tap the "X" to remove Calendar from the list.
Press the Home button to go back to your Home screen. Wait a minute before reopening the Calendar app.
Restart your iOS device: Hold down the Sleep/Wake button until the red slider appears, then drag the slider. After the device turns off, turn it back on by pressing the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears. This may sound simple, but it reinitializes your network and application settings and can frequently resolve issues.
Change the Sync settings for your calendars:
Tap Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
Under Calendars, tap Sync. If Sync is set to All Events, set it to a specific duration, such as Events 1 Month Back. If it's already set to a specific duration, set it to All Events.
Tap the Home button. Wait several minutes, then open Calendar and try to refresh your calendars again.
Turn iCloud Calendar off and back on:
Tap Settings > iCloud.
Turn off Calendar. Choose to delete data only if your data exists at icloud.com/calendar or on one or more of your computers. Otherwise, choose Keep Data.
Wait a few minutes before turning Calendar back on.

HT201317 why the last photos in photo stream are not sync with my iPad?

why the last photos in photo stream are not sync with my iPad?

Photostream only syncs photos over Wi-Fi, make sure you are connected to Wi-Fi to begin with.
Photostream only syncs when the camera app is closed, ensure it is closed.
Photostream only syncs when the battery is above 20%, try recharging the device
Try disabling photo stream on your device (settings > iCloud), restarting your device and then re-enabling photo stream.
If this doesn't help you may need to reset photo stream. You can do this at icloud.com by clicking on your name in the top right corner and then the advanced settings in the pop-up dialogue box that appears.
Note: disabling photostream and re-enabling it will result in any photos that are currently in the photostream album on your device, that are older than 30 days old, not being added back.

New events on Outlook 2010 not syncing with Iphone and Ipad

I have gone through the nonsensical uninstall/reinstall every 5 restars. This time my new events or contacts on Outlook do not show on iPhone or Ipad. There is also a new confirguration where the Outlook does not separate the iCloud calendar from Outlook calendar but lists them all, then iCloud as a separate box at the bottom. I've tried dragging to that box with no success. I make about 50 appointments and reminders to my calendar each week and use all devices whether in the office or out. How dare Apple not fix this known issue.

I just looked at topic called "Outlook 2010 - Outlook does not sync with iPhone / iTunes and used the fix suggested in that string of posts. It appears to have worked!!! My happy camper.
