My contacts and calenders on my IPAD not syncing with my IMAC

My contacts, mail and calenders on my IPAD are not syncing with my IMAC properly.  My IPhone seems to sync with IPAD okay.
Also, on my IPhone I have subfolders for a second email account, but on my IPAD and IMAC I can only access subfolders from one email account.
Please help

For Mail in order to have subfolders the email account must be an IMAP account. Check on the iPad in Settings > Mail, Contacts and Calendars > the email account in question to make sure the correct account type is selected.
If your ad is not syncing your Contacts and Calendars to the other devices go to Settings and make sure iCloud is on and you're signed in to the same iCloud account as on your other devices. Then make sure that Contacts and Calendar syncing is turned on.

    Why will my ipad not sync with calendars on my imac?

    I did find the info tab while trying to sync my calendars, but my iPhone5, iPhone 4S and iPad still won't sync to my MacBook Pro.
    Are you using Mac OS 10.9  Mavericks?
    There is no Info tab and you need to sync contacts & calendars via iCloud.

  • Why does my IPad not sync with my IPhone for Ibooks bookmarks?

    Why does my IPad not sync with my IPhone for IBooks bookmarks?  Both Pad and Phone have sync turned on.

    I must apologize as I misread your post. I though that you were talking about Safari bookmarks but you post does clearly state iBooks bookmarks.
    You may want to just try restarting both devices and see if that helps. One other thing that you could try is quit iBooks on both devices and then launch it again and see if the bookmarks are synced when you relaunch.

  • My account names for iCloud and iTunes is different, is this why my Iphone4 is not syncing with my iMac?

    My account names for iCloud and iTunes is different, is this why my Iphone4 is not syncing with my iMac?

    No, perfectly normal to have a separate iTunes account for music/app purchases to the one you use for iCloud syncing of contacts, notes, etc.

  • My iPhone has two identical options under "iTunes wi-fi sync" that are the same computer. I only have one user on my  computer, and I tried moving my iTunes file in Finder to organize it and now my library's not synced with my phone. Help?

    My iPhone has two identical options under "iTunes wi-fi sync" that are the same computer. I only have one user on my computer, and I tried moving my iTunes file in Finder to organize it and now my library's not synced with my phone. Help?

    I have the same problem. Right now my iPhone 5S shows 3 instances of the computer to which it is connected under Settings » General » iTunes WiFi Sync. I'm having problems connecting and syncing, and this is probably the cause: the phone chooses one of these connections, and it isn't the one that's actually in use. What's probably happening is that the phone and computer establish a connection using a dynamic IP address, the address becomes "disassociated" due to error, another address is associated, the phone retains each address/link, and each link is displayed as if it represents a separate computer (the fact that the name of the computer is identical is ignored, as the only thing that is considered important is the IP address). But that's all conjecture. More important, I'm not sure how to fix the problem. A network reset doesn't do it.

    text on ipad not syncing with iPhone at all times

    Same with me. It used to be that Books would sync with my iPhone, but it seems that since IOS 5 came out they don't sync any more. Everything else syncs fine through iCloud; iPhone 4s & IPad 2.

  • Putting info on my iPhone calendar does not sync with my iMac unless I plug it into my iMac

    putting info on my iPhone calendar does not sync with my iMac unless I plug it into my iMac.  It did when I first bought iPhone, how can I sync automatically?

    Could be a bunch of reasons. Do you have icloud setup on both devices? Can you give us more details of your setup? Make sure you have the calendar set to sync in the icloud system settings. Also make sure you are set to sync said calendar. I was checking my settings and realized that you may or may not be using icloud for calendaring. On your phone in settings/mail, contacts, calendars/ you have the ability to select what and which calendars you want to sync. Make sure it is configured appropriately.

  • Ipod Touch will not sync with home iMac but can with other macs

    My daughters iPod Touch will not sync with her iMac anymore.

    We are both running Snow Leopard.
    Is there a toggle or setting that needs to be changed.
    I've looked but no joy.
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    If iTunes is not seeing the iPod then try:

    Cenzon-
    Are you syncing over WiFi or over the USB cable?  Try doing the opposite.
    Also try a different USB port on the iMac.

  • IPhone 5s and iPad not syncing with iCloud

    I am experiencing issues with both my iPhone 5s and my iPad. Many of my apps and music that is on my iPad are not syncing with my iPhone. I've backed up my info on my iPad and still having issues!  Help!!!

    Have you tried using computer iTunes to sync?

  • Ipad not Syncing with iTunes

    I am having increasing problems with getting my iPad to Sync with Itunes on my 17" MacBook Pro.  Both Mac OS and iTunes up to date with latest software as is the iPad.  The trouble started a couple of months ago with some apps failing to sync.  I deleted them from the iPad and then it was ok for a while, however this has repeated itself with an increasing frequency.
    Today, whenever I connect my iPad to Itunes it will not sync.  It starts with the message "Waiting to Sync" then after a while briefly displays Cancelling Sync and then stops.  If I try and move from the Summary tab in iTunes to the Apps tab I get the spinning ball of death and iTunes hangs until I either Force Quit or unplug the iPad.
    Interestingly there is no problem when I connect my wifes iPad to my Macbook Pro.  However I have the same problem when I try to connect to iTunes on her MacAir.
    I have reset my iPad's settings.  I have restarted my Mac and iPad numerous times.  I have deleted all the iPad backup files on iTunes and done just about everything I can find with respect to things even remotely similar from the web or discussion boards.  Logically I have to assume it is something on my iPad however everything else is working fine - or so it seems.
    Anybody else out there with this or a similar problem or any suggestions???
    Thanks in advance.

    I want to start off by saying the latest update is the worst piece of software I have ever tried downloading onto my computer. After three unsuccesful updates directly from Itunes I downloaded it to file and then installed three times before it succesfully installed. At this point Itunes would freeze when trying to recognize my Ipad, Ive reinstalled twice more including individual installs of Quicktime and Itunes and NOTHING is making this worthless software work. I am not impressed at all Apple, as a matter of fact I'm tempted to NEVER buy another Apple product again because of how poor this latest update is. but whatever, some help would be nice.

  • Help getting Pages to iBook on an iPad not synced with my computer.

    I have my students creating book reports using iWorks Pages.  We will then export them to epubs and place in iBook.  All is working well.  My question is my principal wants the iBooks on her iPad that is not synced with my computers.  How can I get these iBooks or epub documents onto her iPad without syncing it to my computers?

    If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.1. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.

    If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
    Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily.  Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

  • I lost all the songs on my itunes and now my phone will not sync with out loosing all my music

    my computer hard drive crashed and i had to re download itunes and now my phone will not sync without erasing all my music

    That is correct.  The iphone will sync with one and only one computer/library at a time.  If you sync to another then it will indeed erase the current content and replace with content from the new computer/library.
    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer.  Use this to put everything back.
    If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup ( not good), then you can transfer itunes purchases from the iphone.  Without syncing:  File>Transfer Purchases
    You will also need to enter one unique contact and calendar entry in the computer .  When you first sync, you should get the option to merge.  Otherwise this data will be erased as well.
    Much easier to use your backup copy to put everything back.

  • My iPhone will not sync with my imac

    I can not get my iphone 4s to sync with my iMac. I have synced them before but it has been several months. I have tried several different usb cables and even a new one that I today. It will not even charge 90% of the time it is connected. But even if I can get it to charge, the iMac does not register that a device is connected. I am trying to sync my phone so I can upload my pics/videos so I can delete them off my phone. I do not have enough storage space to back up my phone. Any help would be appreciated.

    Hey iris7531,
    Thanks for the question. Have you tried restarting your iPhone and Mac, then attempting to connect once more? Also, see this resource for additional steps:
