MobileMe and iPhone conflict?

Since I got an iPhone, now Mobileme on my MacPro says pswd and ID are invalid...I set up phone first, but still no luck..and changed pswd and ID several times..and my account is current, so now I can't publish my websites. Any ideas how to fix this or do I need to upgrade OSX? Any advice appreciated.

Your iPhone has nothing to do with your MobileMe account, so I would suggest that it is a MobileMe problem.
iPhones can't use MMe anyway, so it should not affect it.

Time in iCal are US (EST) but sync to MobileMe and iPhone as UK (GMT)

Time in iCal are US (EST) but sync to MobileMe and iPhone as UK (GMT). How can I correct this? I thought I had changed all my settings after I got back from the UK.
Any help would be great.
Thanks.

Sorry, I re-read this and realized that my explanation of the problem may not have been clear. (I need to get more sleep)
When I add a new event into iCal on my Mac it shows up at 1:45pm EST. When the event syncs via MobileMe it shows up as 6:45pm (18:45) on my iPhone and in MobileMe online. How can I get the events to shows up at the correct time (1:45pm) on my iPhone and online?
Thanks

ICal content disappeared but shows up on MobileMe and iPhone

Hi!
I wanted to post a "question" and the "answer" because I've spent a couple of days on forums and testing and trying and restoring and ... well you get the picture. Here were my symptoms:
I have a MobileMe account. (ALL calendar data could be seen)
I have a personal iMac. (NO calendar data could be seen)
I have a work iMac. (NO calendar data could be seen)
I have an iPhone. (ALL calendar data could be seen)
I'm using MobileMe services and syncing all data between all four devices. (not to mention my wife's iphone)
*THE PROBLEM:*
The problem was that for some unknown reason both of my iCal applications at work and at home suddenly disappeared. No data could be seen in either one. I figured something went wrong with a sync and I would just check my iPhone and MobileMe site to make sure all data was still there. YES all data was there - WHEW! Now, I would just manually sync my data and transfer all data from cloud replacing computer iCal data. No problem. I received no errors, clicked on iCal - nothing. Again-all data on iPhone remained nothing showed up on my work or personal iMacs. Confused, I decided to call up Apple's support for iPhones. I spoke (texted) with Michael M somewhere in Canada (very nice gentleman - did a wonderful job walking me through over an hours worth of ideas) but to no avail. We finally decided that I needed to use my Time Machine backup to get iCal to a "working" condition and upload all data to the cloud replacing everything from that scenario. This also did not work. Something got corrupted somewhere.
*THE SOLUTION:*
I closed iCal and marched on over to Users/myuser/Library/Calendars/
and moved (didn't delete yet 'cause I was scared) EVERY folder into a "new folder" on my desktop. I then reopened iCal and WALLA - it began syncing immediately. Everything finally showed up. I sure hope this helps someone out there. If you would like a transcript of what me and the iPhone/iCal tech tried - I would be more than happy to forward that info on to you. My e-mail is jdunk(at)mac.com.

Hey Timothy,
So there is two Contacts icons on the iPhone?
The iPhone 2.0 software adds a Contacts application to the iPhone.
Try restoring the iPhone.

You can also try downloading the application in iTunes and then syncing it to the iPhone.

Sync MobileMe and iPhone to iCal?

Is it possible to have the iPhone and MobileMe only sync some of the calendars you have saved within iCal software, but not sync all of the calendars?

Sync Notes between MobileMe and iPhone

How can I sync my notes that exist on my MobileMe account to my iphone. I have 2 computers (iMac and MacBook Pro) that sync notes via MobileMe. That seems to work fine. Now I have 2 iPhones I would like to sync the notes with. (My wife's iPhone with the iMac and my iPhone with the MacBook Pro).
I have checked the box in itunes to sync notes, but nothing comes over to my iPhone. Everything else is syncing fine to the iPhones via MobileMe directly...
Any thoughts?

ICal syncing with mac and iphone problem - duplicating all alarms.

I have a mobile me account linked to my office mac, my home mac and my iPhone and my wife's iphone. I have been using this to sync all my contacts and calendar for 18 months with no problems until just after christmas. It suddenly duplicated all my contacts and all my iCal alarms. To solve it I had to use time machine to take my ical and address book back a few days and then force everything to update from that machine.
This I thought solved it but now three weeks later it has duplicated all my alarms again. Why is this happening and how do I stop it? It does not inspire confidence in this system if it randomly changes things. How do I know it will not suddenly delete something? It is also very frustrating and time consuming to reset all the data back a few days.
Any help or advice would be appreciated.

The synchronization between iCal, MobileMe, and iPhone is one of the biggest embarrassments and disgraces Apple has yet to deal with.
For over a year, I have been battling duplicates with little success. Add to all this MS Entourage, which I had to install last year because Mac Mail doesn't play nicely with Exchange server. (My company uses Exchange for our mail, etc.) To be clear, the duplicate problem existed prior to the addition of Entourage 2008. So you are out of luck, Koolaide Fans; you can't point the finger at MS in this case.
After 6 months of struggling and fighting with Entourage (and because there is no native version of MS Project or Visio for Mac) I finally had to install VM Ware with Windows 7, MS Office 2007, Visio, Project, etc. The MS apps work perfectly under the Windows 7 session. So, I my functionality for business has been restored. However, I am left wondering why I have a Mac if it can't provide me the functionality I need for such basic things as Email, calendars, contacts, and tasks. I am to the point where I am basically doing everything in the VMWare session under Windows.
I am very pleased with my Mac's ability to do video editing, graphics, and sound using Adobe products. But again, I work in mainstream corporate America where 90% of the marketshare is still PC/Windows.
In the end, I am hoping someone from Apple can come forward soon and say "This is EXACTLY how you need to configure your Entourage/iCal/MobileMe/iPhone so that you aren't crippled by duplicates and other nonsense...." It really is ridiculous.

Event entered on iPhone not making it to mobileme and iCal

Since the 2.1 update, events entered in my iphone are not making it to mobileme or my laptop. Nor is it going the other way (laptop to me and iphone.) Any suggestions appreciated.

Just deleted the account on my iphone and set it up and it seems to be working again. Also got all my ical colors correct across the 3 platforms.

IPhone, MobileMe and iCal ToDo?

Hi,
Basically I'm not sure wether my question fits in this category or MpbileMe or iCal.
To the point... I'm still in trial period of MobileMe and as far as I saw, "the thing" is quite cool (I'm just waiting the iDisk app). Before leaving the office I entered a few ToDo things for upcoming days in calender on me.com.
Now I'm wandering, where on my iPhone (3G, OS 3.0) can I see this ToDo list? Did I miss something?
I checked all applications Calender, Notes... but I cant find or see my ToDo list!?
Many thanks in advance for any tip or suggestion,
M

You can't find it because it isn't supported.
http://www.google.com/search?q=iphonesync+to-doical
That first link suggests Appigo as a workaround---Apple does open up the iCal data so that other apps can pull it from your computer and then sync it to the phone (I believe, I don't use iCal todos myself)

MobileMe and iCloud accounts in Mail on my iPhone

In Oct 2011 a user wrote:
"I updated to iCloud and now I have both MobileMe and iCloud accounts in Mail on my iPhone 4s. I don't have the option to delete the MobileMe account so now I have two of the same account under different names. How do I delete the MobileMe and keep the iCloud?"
The following response solved that users issue:
"Open the MobileMe preferences in System Preferences, sign out. Open the Mail, Contacts, Calendars preferences and either turn off the MM account or delete it. The MM account will disappear at the end of June 2012. You can delete any MM account you have currently turned on in your iPhone's settings."
I have the same issue, and that helpful response does not apply in my situation. On my Mac, I am signed out of my MobileMe account; the Mail, Contacts, Calendars preference does not show a MobileMe account, just iCloud.
On my iPhone, Mailboxes in Mail shows my MobileMe address and iCloud entries - both mailboxes/accounts show the same folders and messages. Also, in Settings' Mail, Contacts, Calendars the Accounts does not have a MobileMe entry, just iCloud.
Mailboxes in Mail on my iPad 2, on the other hand, does not show the MobileMe address; it only shows the iCloud entry.
Any recommendations on how to remove the MobileMe entry on my iPhone?

Don't count on it! Both my iPad and iPhone4S are on 5.1 and both are having problems right now!

Syncing iPhone to both MobileMe *and* Mac w/ merged data

I'm almost sure I've gotten this working before, but for the life of me, I can't seem to figure it out now. I want to sync my contacts and calendar to both my MobileMe account and my computer (which also syncs to my MobileMe account) without having two sets of contacts and calendar items on my iPhone. I want to do this because most of the time I use my iPhone in an always-connected mode (via either 3G or WiFi), so sync from my iPhone to MobileMe for additions and changes works great (and syncs down to my Mac without having to connect my iPhone), but I also often travel internationally where my iPhone is offline for long periods of time, so sync via a cable to my Mac is the only way I sync up contacts and calendar. I don't want two completely separate sets of contacts and calendar items on my iPhone, I want them merged as one but still synced to both MobileMe and my Mac through iTunes.
Possible? If so, what are the steps to make it work?

If you do both, then it will give you two copies.

Apple ID conflict on iPad and iPhone

My Apple ID on my all three of my devices--iMac, iPad, and iPhone is: [email protected] . When I try to update apps on either my iPad or iPhone, in the pop up screen my Apple ID is [email protected] an old Apple ID that is incorrect. Because of this, conflict I cannot download or update applications to either my iPad or iPhone. Any ideas how to correct this?

Apps downloaded with a particular Apple Id are foerever tied to it, so any updates will always require that Apple ID.
For purchases, you would need to sign out by going into Settings->Itunes & App Sotres, Apple ID ->Sign Out

MobileMe calenders and iphone

My MobileMe account has my correct calendars on it and my iphone is sent up to allow pushing but the calendars on my phone are not the same. Does anyone have any ideas how I 'fetch' the correct data?

I just, 30 minutes ago, learned, I think, the answer to that. I tried it and it worked for me. I had duplicate events and "sets" of calendars.
Delete the MobileMe account on the iPhone.
Restart the iPhone.
Add the MobileMe account back and turn on Calendar and Contact syncing.
You'll be asked if you want to merge the data. Tap yes.
This should, after a few minutes, set you up with only one set of calendars and contact groups.
Sync only over MobileMe and don't via iTunes.

ICal lost end dates and ∞ sync conflicts after iOS4 upgrade

   After upgrading my sacrificial iPod 3 (I’m waiting to upgrade my main iPhone 3GS) and synchronizing it to my home MacBook Pro 2007 17", I got huge numbers of old repeating meeting which seem to have lost their end-date, e.g., “Palm-size PC Porting Lab” on June 28th this millennium, which I assure you is an error. I restored from a desktop backup, overwrote the iOS4 Calendar data, and synced again.
   After that, I had a miserable day full of a dozen or so Resolve Sync Conflicts dialogs—sometime three or four in a row after a single, very slow, sync. Several times two sync processes used up all my real memory (using over a gigabyte, out of three) and once it even used up all my disk space (I had 29G free). I also had a few rounds of conflict on my work MacBook Pro 2009 13", synced via MobileMe.
   Some historical notes: My calendar data is quite large, going back to Newton days via PalmOS, and iPhone OS 3 never handled it properly, e.g., both search and over-the-air sync are broken on my 3.1.3 iPhone. MobileMe sync data also gets corrupted every few weeks. And “Palm-size PC” was Microsoft’s court-ordered renaming of their trade-mark infringing Palm PC.
Macaulay‘s Law of Software Upgrades:
“To think nothing of symmetry and much of convenience; never to remove an anomaly merely because it is an anomaly; never to innovate except when some grievance is felt; never to innovate except so far as to get rid of the grievance.”

Deleting my caches per http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2481, and restoring and rebooting a couple of times, seems to have shut up the warnings, at least for now, but there's still some data loss, e.g., two meetings on 6/21 and 6/22 don't show up any more on my main Mac, but do show up on both my sacrificial iOS4 iPod, and my real 3.1.3 iPhone. (I’m also having trouble with a Note failing to sync from my iPad, but I haven’t tried that yet since nuking my caches.)

ICal subscriptions and iPhone

I want my subscribed calendars (such as the Birthday calendar—very important) to show up on the iPhone, but MobileMe only counts the "Calendars" and not the "Subscriptions". how does one do this?

Unfortunately you can't. If you want your iPhone to have subscribed calendars, you need to sync it via iTunes and not use the push feature. How Apple could have ever left this simple but NECESSARY function out just floors me. I subscribe to my wife's calendar so we avoid conflicts in schedules. I guess it was too much to ask that if she changes her calendar, it would be pushed to my iPhone since I subscribe to her calendar. But as always, subscriptions are only visible on the desktop application and iphone if you do an iTunes wired sync. It just works. hmmmm.

Events showing up many times in iCal on Mac and iPhone

Certain events are showing up many times within my iCal and iPhone. These are clearly duplicate events and can show up as much as 50 times or more on the same day at the same time. Some additional background:
1. I use mobileme and have my iCal syched through Mobile Me
2. I have a gmail calendar that is synching (these events do not appear to be duplicating)
3. I synch my iPhone calendar with my work PC through a USB chord. My work PC uses MS Outlook. Some of these events are duplicated. Especially annual events such as birthdays.
4. I have set my wife's calendar to publish and I have subscribed to her calendar. She has a far more extensive issue of events duplicating and these duplications show up on my iPhone since I subscribe to her calendar.
Any help would be much appreciated.

Hi Martin,
Are you using MobileMe? Are you syncing the events to the iPhone through iTunes or pushing them over the air with MobileMe?
If you are using MobileMe you can set the Time Zone online at http://www.me.com/calendar/ click the Gear> Preferences> Advanced.
Try turning off Time Zone Support on the iPhone, tap Settings> Mail, Contacts, Calendars> Time Zone Support, off.
Did that change the time on the events?
If you are not using MobileMe or that does not resolve the issue, try the tips below.
If the Time Zone Support is on in iCal, try disabling it. Go to iCal>Preferences> Advanced> uncheck Turn on time zone support. You can change Time Zones of events in iCal as described in the iCal help article: "Changing the time zone for an event"
If the issue persists try resetting the sync history as described here: http://support.apple.com/kb/TA23030 and then syncing the calendar events to the iPhone again.
