MobileMe sync of iCal on iPad doesn't work

I have iPad, 2 mac computers and the MobileMe cloud. MobileMe sync of Address Book work across all platforms. MobileMe sync of Calendar works except on the iPad. Why? I can't see any differences in settings on iPad. Yes, both Calendar and Address Book are checked for syncing on the iPad. Must be something dumb I've done but I can't see it.

Question 1:
If got as far as 4. Tapping "Calendar" gives a Pull down list with the 1st four lines: 1) "Show Calendars" with black background, 2) "Hide All Calendars", 3) "MobileMe" with gray background, 4) "All MobileMe" , 5 thru 10) are the names of my calendars. I have all calendars check marked. I see no "done" button. Where is it?
Comment 1: Playing around with the "Fetch New Data" Push and Fetch settings does not get "synced" calendars. But I do get "synced" Contacts.
Question 2:
What is the state of the iPad after I do the "restore the iPad"? Are all my settings now back on my iPad ? If they are not how do I get them reset. I hope you are not going to say that I have to reenter them all. Maybe a "sync" from my computer will reset everything?
Question 3: Why can't I delete the iCal app and download a new one? And if so how do I do it?
Comment 2: This was one of the first iPads, bought the 1st week Apple was selling them.
Thank you for your help.

Whenever I try to sync my ipod touch, it doesn't work. The computer seems to get hung. What could be happening?

Whenever I try to sync my ipod touch, it doesn't work. The computer seems to get hung during the back up stage. It says it is backing up the ipod but nothing happens, for hours. I eventually have to interrupt it and give up.

I have the latest itunes.
I tried resetting sync history.
For this section:
If the issue persists, and you know all your contacts, calendars, bookmarks and notes are on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch:
Remove all of the contact and calendar information from Outlook.
Select the device in iTunes and click the Info tab.
Scroll down to the Advanced section, and under "Replace information on this iPhone/iPad/iPod touch" make sure Contacts and Calendars are not selected.
Click Apply.
This doesn't seem to make sense for my situation. I don't sync anything between outlook and my ipod touch.
I have no other USB devices connected to my computer.
I have no other Windows users on my computer - only me and I am the administrator. However on my diagnostic, it said this user is not the administrator. Weird.
So I have tried to follow that you referred me to, but still I haven't got it working yet. Do you have any further suggestions?

HI,
In effect this is a DNS block.
You can do it.
You need to be in an Admin Mac User Account that has non blank password.
Go to the Applications/Utilities folder and open Terminal.
You should see your shortname (the one under the Little House icon) followed by the $ symbol
Copy and paste the bold text below into Terminal after the $ symbol.
sudo pico /etc/hosts
This will load the file "hosts" into and editor that works in Terminal.
Use the arrow keys to get to the line with Verisign in it.
Now type the # symbol and it will be added in front of the character that is highlighted.
The # symbol is either Shift +3 or ALT+ 3 depending on your keyboard layout
Now use CTRL and O keys together.
This Saves the changes.
Quit Terminal.

Settings>Store...tap the ID shown...sign out...sign back in with the ID you want to use.

Photostream from PC to Ipad doesn't work

Hello, I have installed ICloud on my Ipad en on my Windows 8 laptop. Photostream from Ipad to laptop is ok but from laptop to Ipad doesn't work.
I have contacted Apple support but the couldn't figure it out, I tried everything: disable firewall in router and laptop, also disabeld Defender, installed a new
ICloud, installed new OS on the Ipad, all the photo's are in the upload folder, the battery of the Ipad is 100% filled, the Wifi works ok. etc.etc. I suppose that
there must be a wrong configuration somewhere, perhaps the Wifi must be in BootP on the Ipad or I have to enable a kind of service in the laptop or perhaps
it is just a stupidity from me? Who has an idea?
Thnx RJZ

Looks like they changed how this works in iCloud Control Panel 2.0
"On a PC with iCloud Control Panel 2.0 or later, open a Windows Explorer window. Select Photo Stream under Favorites. Open My Photo Stream. Click the "Add photos" button. Select photos to import to My Photo Stream, and then click Open."
And here is the source:

Bought a new iPhone 6 and synced from iTunes but vibration doesn't work.

Bought a new iPhone 6 and synced from iTunes but vibration doesn't work. I did the reset option using side and home buttons but in vain. Please don't tell me to set up a new device coz its gonna be a hassle restoring apps, emails, contacs...etc.

Try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again. You will not lose any data by resetting, but it can cure some glitches.
If this does not help, setting it up as new device would be the next step:

TS4185 When I make a face time call, the speaker on the other person's ipad doesn't work. There is only loud static.

The speaker on my ipad doesn't work when the party I'm calling receives the call. Has anyone had a problem with this situation.?

Check to see what Microphone you have selected. On Mac's with multiple input options the Video menu will have a Microphone option. Try out the different options and see if any of them work for you.

I just updated to the newest software and all my apps were deleted. I have tried syncing on itunes but it doesn't work. Help!

Try ReSynching to iTunes. If you set up sync to the cloud, turn that off, resync to your PC. That should bring them back. You can then turn on sync to cloud again.
You may, however, want to re-think that. There is a lot of chatter about the cloud being the source of some if not many of the battery issues. Personally, I decided to rurn the cloud off until the Battery-gate issue is resolved.
Good Luck.

I'm from Perú. My iPad doesn't work. I'm trying to contact with apple support but I can't. What can I do? How can I contact them?

I am Eileen. I'm from Perú.
I'm really concerned.
My iPad doesn't work since 2 months ago. And I can't do anything. In the Istore (where I bought my iPad, 1 year and 5 months ago) said that they couldn't repair it, and I must to go to USA to fix it.
So I'm trying to contact with apple support but it's impossible.
I hope you can contact me, and it would be better if someone who speaks spanish contact me.
Thanks.

You may have to try and contact the authorized Apple support in Mexico or Brazil:

Brazil
0800-761-0880
Mexico
001-866-676-5682
iPhone:
001-800-692-7753
The 800-numbers to contact Apple (US) we see at the main Apple Store (US) are not
able to be used out-of-country; some listed in the Contact Apple are main numbers
though and one could pay the toll-charges to try ones luck...

my iPad doesn´t work, I already restarted it, the screen keeps turning on and off, and I can´t see anything or work on it, what else should I do?

First lets assume you battery is completely or almost completely drained.
Plug the iPad into the charger that came with it and plug that into a known good wall outlet. Leave it alone for at least an hour. Then, while it is still plugged in reset the iPad. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. If the iPad starts and seems to be ok let it continue to Harte until the battery is fully charged.
If this doesn't solve the problem I suggest having an Apple technician take a look at your iPad. Make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support.

Try rebooting first. Hold the power and home buttons at the same time for at least 10 seconds (keep holding past the swipe to shutdown bar if it appears) until the Apple Logo appears, then let go of both buttons and your iPad will restart. See if that solves this for you.......

Iphone sync with Google holiday calendar doesn't work

I have an iphone with IOS 5.1.1 and I'm using Gmail for email, contacts, etc.
I have already synced my Google calendar with the iPhone Cal and it's working fine. I'm trying now to sync the Google holidays calendars with he iPhone, and it's not working. I've already followed the instructions at http://support.google.com/mobile/bin/answer.py?hl=en&lev=topic&cbid=1nxqge2ur9j7 1&answer=139206&src=cb
The holiday calendar appears in the list checked , but the holiday itself doesn't appear in the calendar (June 7th is holiday, and it appears in the web and in the iCal in the MAC). I've done the same procedures for my iPad and it worked... The same happens with the birthdays calendar... Any help?

PA31,
I believe that you will find Jewish Holiday downloads for desktop, mobile and web calendars | Hebcal Jewish Calendar to be a more reliable Jewish calendar source than Apple Inc.
