my calander and contacts are syncing on ipad and iphone but not my photos.

Make sure you are entering the contacts and calendar events on your iCloud account. On your iPad, check Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Calendar. Here make sure you have selected an iCloud calendar as your default, and not something else like On My iPad, Google Calendar, and exchange account calendar, etc.
Then go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Account (in the contacts section) and make sure you have selected iCloud as your default. (If you don't see this settings, this isn't the problem).
If your settings for your calendar is correct on your iPad and it still won't sync new calendar events to your phone, go to icloud.com from your computer and enter any missing calendar events on your iPad that are not on your calendar on icloud.com. Once your iCloud calendar is up to date, go to Settings>iCloud, turn Calendars to Off, choose Delete from My iPad when prompted, then after a minute or so turn Calendars back to On to sync your iCloud calendars back to your phone. Then enter a new event on your iPad and confirm that it syncs to icloud.com now.
If your settings for your contacts are correct on your iPad and it still won't sync new contacts to your phone, do the same thing for Contacts (add any missing contacts to icloud.com, turn iCloud syncing off, choose Delete from My iPhone, after a minute turn contact syncing back on, try adding a new contacts to confirm that it syncs).

Contacts and calendar entries go to ipad from iphone but not vice versa

i've got the cloud set up on both my new iPad and iPhone--problem is when I make contact or calendar entries on the iPhone, they cloud right over to the iPad, but when I make entries into the iPad, they don't go to the iPhone--I've checked settings on both devices and can't figure out the issue--please help!

My iMessage and Facetime won't activate, says waiting for activation. All photos and contacts are restored, using email and wifi only, no service. Only issue is date and time will not automatically set.

Howdy eewebe13,
So you have no cellular service but are on Wi-Fi yet iMessage and Facetime are waiting for activation.
Please step through this article for that scenario.

Hope you can help.
I have added a new email address but kept my Id, but I get busy when trying from iPhone to iPad as they are clashing. Like find my iPhone app hence trying to keep them all on one account

IOS: using facetime http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4319
using an ipad will use the email address since you can't make a phone call. see the link.
Your basically calling/emailing yourself that's why your getting a busy signal.

Calendar entry syncs in to my iPhone but not my iPad

I have a really strange problem where a few calendar entries do not sync to my my iPad but are in my iPhone.
They are complex entries (Reoccurring, different time zones, and meeting invite) but they do appear in my iPhone but not iPad. The settings on both devices are identical, and I've tried to delete the calendar DB from the iPad and re-sync. Same problem.
Any help would be appreciated.

OK, I've worked out that is it not syncing meeting requests that I have sent....any ideas?

ICal appts syncing from Mac to iPhone, but not from Mac to iPad.

Events ARE syncing from iPad to Mac, iPad to iPhone and iPhone to iPad.
All devices are on most updated OS and are syncing through iCloud.

only problem is there is now duplication of all events being synced from my mac.

I am finding that some of me emails (mainly from companies not my friends) are coming through to my iphone but not coming through to my iMac.

For quite a while now I have missed some important emails that have come through to my iphone but not downloaded to my iMac, its happening more and more recently. It is really fustrating, I have looked at my iMac and can't find anywhere to adjust the settings to let through the missing emails, the emails that are not coming to my home pc are normaly from large companies, some from my credit card company and comformation for hotel bookings etc, etc.
Can anyone help me please?

Problem might me with how your e.mail is set up if you're using POP3.
If you're using POP3 then you need to add "recent:" (without the quotation marks) before your username on both your iMac and your iPhone.
I use POP3 with Virgin Media and they have well documented help on this aspect.
This now works fine for me and I no longer miss any e.mails.

How do I prevent my contacts, emails and files from syncing to my daughters iphone but continue to have the apps sync?

I recen't bought my daughter an iphone 4 and I have a 5. I want to prevent my contacts/email ect from syncing to her phone (and hers to mine) but still have all the apps and other things sync. Is there a way to do this? We have the same itunes and icloud account. I'm not sure if they are the same thing or completely seperate entities. I'm pretty apple illiterate and really need instructions in layman's terms. LOL

A couple of options:
Create a new AppleID for her and set up iCloud on it. Login to that account on her device (Settings app > iCloud) but leave the iTunes&App Store account as is. (I have this set up on my wife's iPhone).
OR
If either of you do not need to synch items, turn them off in icloud (Settings App > iCloud). Emails should not synch unless you have the same email accounts set up (Settings App > Mail,Contacts,Calendars)

Deleted contacts on my imac and contacts are now missing on my iphone

I noticed that my iphone contacts have automatically appeared on my works imac, so quickly deleted them all today.
I did not know that my imac in work was synced to my icloud account and my iphone. Which has deleted my contacts on my iphone.
I tried to backup my iphone from an earlier backup from my home imac (not icloud) and the contacts are still not appearing.
I can find all the contact data on my imac via my library folder but do not know how to add them back onto my iphone.

I have tried that approach.
I have tried to backup from a previous imac backup (not icloud) and still nothing.
I found my contact data files within the source folder on my mac but cannot figure out how to add them to my contact app

I cannot get all my albums and events to sync to ipad or iphone

How can I get all my albums and events to sync? I have tried all combinations of buttons & check boxes, and nothing.
The tab "Events" doesn't even show on my iPad.
I am a professional photographer and would like to have my events completely organized for clients.
Any suggestions on getting all photos and events to my iPad?

Connect ur ipad to itunes, click on it when it appears on itunes den goto "info" tab and make sure "Sync iCal Calendars" is Checked.

You will need to connect both to your computer via your USB cord then launch iTunes. Take a look at this link, http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1386

HT4527 i am trying to transfer new downloads from my iphone to my pc itunes page. having trouble, and i don't have enough space to explain. old itunes card purchases on pc are showing up on my iphone, but not the opposite.

I bought an ipod a few years ago and used a few itunes cards to purchase downloads (music only). Then, i started copying cd's to my computer and they also showed up on my itunes pages. nonetheless, i started making playlists. in the meantime, there was a balance of $6.96 on my account, and i was not able to use the balance to redeem because i lost the itunes card it came from (who would've thought i needed to save the card)...anyway, fine, i recently purchased an iphone. Well, i have purchased a few new itunes cards and have downloaded about ten songs off itunes from my phone to my phone in my phone. Okay, now i am home, and i want to see about getting things in order, ie, making playlists, etc, but including of course the music i already have on the pc in its itunes page. mass confusion for a nontechnological person. i think it's possible, like, to transfer from iphone to pc, and then from pc to iphone, and to coordinate songs from one to the other, but i have no idea how to do this. so, i am researching, and i am finding support here and there, but my device isn't even showing up on the left hand side when i bring up itunes on my computer! so, there is no way to transfer anything!
HELP!

First thing Suzanne, I've asked the hosts to remove your email address it's not a good idea to place it in a thread, robots will pick it up and use it to spam you, it's much better to put it in your profile and tell people in your thread that it's there.
Not so sure about the second issue without more info, but as to the first matter, pictures you take on your phone are saved to your phone, they are not saved to iCloud, there is no way around this only to move your pictures to a computer regularly to free up more space.
