My iMac calendar and contacts no longer sync on iPhone and iPad?

I updated iTunes on my iMac a few months ago. Since then my calendar and my contacts on the iMac have not been syncing on my iPhone and my iPad. My memory says there used to be an "Info" button at the top of the iTunes interface when I had my iPhone or iPad connected to the iMac for syncing. Do not see that button any more? Have been looking and looking for some new way to sync my calendar and my contacts, but have not found anything. This is one of several disappointments with the new iTunes. How do I get my iMac, iPhone, iPad calendars and contacts to sync??
It's been a real pain to have to enter calendar and contact information into all three! My iMac runs on Maverick, my iTunes is 11.1.3, and the iPhone and iPad run on iOS 7.0.4

Hello Bev76,
Thanks for participating in the Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like contacts and calendars on your iPad are not being synced to your iPhone 5, but the data syncs from iPhone to iPad.
If you are using iCloud for your contacts and calendars, start with the troubleshooting steps in the "iOS" or "Troubleshooting on iOS devices" sections of these articles:

All the best,
Jeremy

  • I have downloade itunes 10.5.1 and now can't sync my iphone or ipad. It does recognise any devices

    I have downloaded Itunes 10.5.1 It refuses to recognise my iphone or ipad to sync.
    I have reloaded it and restarted my pc but nothing changes..
    Any ideas?

    I had a similar issue on Vista and started researching this after being unable to sync my iPhone4 or access the iTunes Store after upgrading iTunes and Safari. Found a thread here that gave me the tip to uninstall ALL Apple software and then reinstall it all. This includes QuickTime, Application Support, Mobile Device Support, Bonjour, etc. You can find all this in the "programs and features" control panel (or whatever the Win7 version of it is). It will even let you uninstall there.
    I tried uninstalling and reinstalling (and burning about 3 hours in the process) all the software I had uninstalled. However, after I had installed iTunes and before I installed Safari, I started iTunes to see if I could access the iTunes Store and I could!
    Well, I thought I was on my way to full syncing and iTunes Store browsing pleasure..."must have been a bad install" I said and promptly reinstalled Safari as well.Once that was done, I started up iTunes and was met with the same blank iTunes Store screen, and was unable to sync my iPhone. Sigh.
    So - uninstalled all Apple software again and resinstalled JUST the iTunes package. This time around, full success with iTunes Store and iPhone syncing!
    Obviously, a browsing engine/rendering failure on the part of Safari that doesn't impact the browser in iTunes until Safari is installed.
    1. Uninstall all Apple software
    2. Reinstall ONLY iTunes package
    3. DON'T reinstall Safari

  • TORCH 9800 - Calendar and Contacts no longer syncing with Google

    Hi. I got my Torch 9800 (software version 6.0) in April and up until a couple of weeks ago, no problem syncing two-ways with Google calendar and contacts. For some reason, sometime over the past two weeks they have stopped syncing. I still receive Gmail on my Torch, no problem. Strangely, if I am sent an invitation for an event on my Google calendar, it still shows up on my device AND my Torch, However it does not sync if I create it myself, in either direction (if I create on the device, it does not show on Google calendar, and vice versa). It is set to sync wirelessly. PLEASE HELP!!!! The calendar is the main reason I even have a BlackBerry!! TIA.

    I have almost the same problem since I upgraded to 6.0 B2647. If the invitation is sent to me from someone else and I get it as an email, I can accept the meeting request and it is added to my BB but it is still not added to my gmail calendar. I have 8 accounts synched with my BB, 4 of them gmail accounts, 2 of them have gmail calendars.
    I just got off the phone with Rogers BlackBerry support where I was told that I should backout the upgrade and the tech support guy (Peter) was unable to tell me what version I should go back to. BB DTM knows though but I'm reluctant to go back.
    It was a Rogers specific upgrade! The upgrade itself went badly. I couldn't upgrade wirelessly and when I did the upgrade using DTM the software upgraded but the restore failed. I was able to restore some of my information (password keeper - thank goodness!) but I lost a number of updated address book entries and have had to reenter them manually as people contact me (or I call them if I know their number). 
    I worked for RIM for 10+ years and this is one of the worst upgrades I've had and I used to run early pre-release versions all the time.
    I've tried:
    -- turning off wireless calendar sync and then turning it back on.  
    -- deleting the account from my bb and readding it
    -- changing the default account to my gmail account for calendar and contacts and email 
    Nothing has worked so far, especially talking to the Rogers rep!

  • Mac calendar and contacts won't sync with iPhone 5 since upgrading to Mavericks.

    Please,please, help,
    My mac calendar and contacts (and who know what else) won't sync with my iPhone 5 since updating to Mavericks. I have lost new medical appointments on my mac which never synced to my iPhone. I am completely frazzled as I am a very busy mum (who isn't!) and the call centre is closed! A am a bit of a technophobe but have discovered the "info" tab that appears when I connect my iphone to my mac to sync has disappeared with Mavericks. I hope someone out there can help me.

    Yes, you can reinstall your system from the backup you made before installing Mavericks. See this link

  • Contacts no longer syncing with iPhone

    I am using an iphone and syncing with my macbook laptop with OS 10.6.2. I have it set up to automatically sync my contacts, calendar, notes, and bookmarks when i connect it to the laptop. I have itunes set to manually sync music.
    About a week ago, my contacts stopped syncing up. I have not changed any of the settings. Now, if i edit or add a contact to my macbook, it does not show up on my iPhone, and the same thing vice versa. All of the other functions (calendar, notes, etc) are syncing just fine. I tried changing the settings in itunes to not sync the contacts in address book and then changing it back, but no help.
    When i plug in the iphone it appears to sync normally but contacts don't sync.
    This is driving me crazy. Any help much appreciated.

    Can you restore the phone without erasing all the contacts? If so i will do it but I have stuff on there that is not nacked up, ie contacts.

  • TS2776 After installing iTunes 11, we can no longer sync our iPhone and iPad devices with Outlook 2007 or 2010.  We are trying to install iTunes 10 to replace iTunes 11. Anyone have a fix for this?

    Since installing itunes 11, we can no longer sync to our Outlook 2007 and 2010 calendars (there may be other Outlook files included in this syncing problem). Using the iCloud is not an option as it does not support Vista OS.  We are trying to reinstall iTunes 10.7, however; that is not going particularly well, either. Does anyone have a proven solution for this mess?

    FYI: It seems it was a network problem with my WinXP PC. After complete deletion and new installation of XP and iTunes my iPhone will be recognized correctly, Wifi synchronization works (mostly) fine.

  • Contacts no longer Sync to iPhone

    Until yesterday I never had any problems syncing contacts with my iPhone. Now it doesn't matter what I do, I can't get my contacts to Sync. This problem started after I signed up for .Mac and did my first Sync using .Mac.
    I can Sync changes from my iPhone to my AddressBook but not from AddressBook to iPhone. Changes made in AddressBook do not sync to .Mac either.
    I have reset Sync data in iSync and tried a number of things that are mentioned here, yet nothing works. I have also reset my phone.
    If I delete the AddressBook folder in ~/Library/Application Support/AddressBook (so that I end up with the default 2 entries), those will Sync to the iPhone. However, restoring from the backup to AddressBook (which does load all my contacts back) will not Sync to the iPhone.
    In the log I get the following:
    Nov 1 11:43:09 nicolas-cianca AppleMobileDeviceHelper[1360]: exception while performing selector allClients on server: NSInvalidSendPortException [NSMachPort sendBeforeDate:] destination port invalid

    Nov 1 11:43:41 nicolas-cianca [0x0-0xca0ca].com.apple.iTunes[1359]: Sending final status from child helper tool back to parent...
    Obviously there is an entry in my AddressBook that is causing iSync/.Mac/iTunes syncing to choke, but there is no way to figure out which one. I have 4300+ contacts.

    I was able to fix this but only because I have been in the habit of making a regular backup from AddressBook using the File->Export->AddressBook Archive. I got burned by a bug in Mail that would cause Addressbook to wipe out it's database. I reported that bug to Apple and they confirmed it and let me know that they fixed it in Leopard (which they did).
    The problem here is that a record is corrupted, but unfortunately there isn't an easy way to determine which record that is. The log only provides the ID (look like this: 50D3999F-489C-4116-8AD2-60109DC8A8D3) which doesn't identify the actual corrupted record and I have too many dirty records to try to isolate the bad one. In my case going to back an older copy was able to solve the problem.
    Assuming that this was recently working correctly and you haven't made many changes to existing records, you can try this:
    Create a Smart Group and and select "Card" "has changed in" X "day". X would be the number of days you want to display.
    Then click on the group and the cards that you have recently entered will appear. This may help you isolate the one that is corrupted. It would be helpful if AddressBook had a means to locate records by ID or at least provide the name of the contact in the logs.
    This is a very annoying issue because iSync will fail silently and unless you look at the Console it will appear to be syncing for .Mac and the iPhone (or any other device that uses iSync). I went for 2 days before I realized that my contacts in Addressbook where NOT syncing with my iPhone but those that I entered on the iPhone did sync.

  • IPad is no longer synced to iPhone and will not send iMessages

    The first thing that happened after the upgrade to iOS 8 was the iPad and iPhone was no longer synced for iMessages. I have an iPhone 4 (no iOS 8 for that phone). After one month of this issue, my iPad is now not sending any iMessages unless I go through email.

    Hey emfgsc,
    Thanks for the question. I understand that you are experiencing issues with iMessage across your iOS devices. The following resource outlines troubleshooting information that you may find helpful:
    iOS: Troubleshooting Messages
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2755
    If you aren't receiving iMessages across all iOS devices
    Go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive on each iOS device and make sure that you signed in with your Apple ID. You must use the same Apple ID on each device.
    Go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive > You Can Be Reached By iMessage At and make sure that you selected each phone number and email address you want to use with iMessage.
    If you linked a phone number to your Apple ID with iMessage and the phone number hasn't appeared, follow these steps.
    Sign out of your Apple ID in Settings > Messages > Send & Receive and Settings > FaceTime on all devices.
    If you're linking a phone number to an Apple ID, sign in to iMessage on your iPhone first. Then sign in to the rest of your device one by one with iMessage and FaceTime.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

  • Bookmarks in ie8 and safari do not sync to iphone and ipad

    IE version 8
    iphone 4, ios 4.3.3
    ipad 2, ios 4.3.3
    itunes 10.3
    Windows XP SP3
    Hello everyone, hope someone could help me..
    I really want to sync my bookmarks from my PC to my iphone and ipad but it doesn't seem to work. I already tried the following but they all failed:
    1. Clear Sync history
    2. Clear cache, cookies and history from iphone/ipad
    3. uncheck sync bookmarks in itunes, then sync. then re-check then sync again.
    4. I tried deleting all bookmarks in IE8 and then re-creating them, then sync afterwards
    All these methods failed. Everytime I try and sync itunes with my iphone/ipad, the sync is successful but bookmarks is left out. No syncing happens for bookmarks. Apps, music and contacts sync work fine though..
    Hope you could help thanks!!

    No bookmarks bar folder is created
    For perspective, my IE8 has bookmarks both in Favorites bar and in Favorites (apparently they are different). I did this to ensure that it's not just a matter of wrong bookmark location in IE. am i doing something wrong?
    Also, when I sync there is this one bookmark (google reader) that keeps on popping up even though I manually delete it in my iphone. It suddenly shows up after every sync.

  • New contacts don't sync from iPhone to ipad

    I have 88 contacts on my iPhone and only 73 sync to my ipad. But if I enter a new contact on my iPad it syncs seamlessly to my iPhone. Any suggestions

    Both devices are on. It's weird that I can add a new contact on my iPad and it transfers fine to the iPhone. I have deleted and re synced my contacts .. And nothing.
    No tater what I do my iPhone will not sync all my contacts to the cloud or iPad.
    I even turned on the iPhone contacts to the cloud default and nothing.

  • ITunes no longer syncs to iPhone or iPad after iOS security update

    I did the iOS security update on my iPhone 5 and my iPad Air.  Now, iTunes will not sync with either device - neither one.  In both cases, I get the error message "iPhone5 (or iPad) can not be synced.  An unknown error occured (1140)."
    I then did the iTunes update that just came out - still the same problem.
    The Mac is a MacBook Pro 2.4 GHz Intel Core 7 running OSX 10.7.5.  Everything worked fine before the iOS security update.
    What is going on?  What to do?

    Finally, I had time to do a on-line support session with the Apple Care help people (excellent).  We went through and verified a lot of things.  Finally, he had me run the disk utility and run "repair disk permissions".  That resolved things and it works now.
    Also related is that the iOS 7.1 update installed a lot of stuff on the iPhone - including iMovie, Numbers, Pages, Keynotes - stuff that I will use on the iPad but not on the iPhone.  The result of automatically installing all these things on the iPhone was to but it way over the limit on memory.  I deselected thos apps (and a few others) plus some movies and am now below the memory limit on the iPhone.
    Things are now working well with both the iPhone and iPad - both syncing correctly.  So, with that, I will close out this case.

  • Contacts no longer syncing from iphone to imac

    If I create a new contact, or change an existing one, on my iPhone, it does not show up in Contacts on my iMac. Have I missed some critical iCloud setting?

    Check that your phone and your imac are both signed into the same iCloud account. Check that Contacts are switched on, check that you are entering new contacts into the iCloud account (on your phone)
    Go to www.icloud.com and enter a new contact, check that the new contact appears on your phone.
