My IPhone 4S no longer updates my calendar when I sync my phone with my MacBook Pro.
My IPhone 4S no longer updates my caldendar when I sync my phone to my MacBook Pro.
Were you syncing over USB? If so, and you upgraded to Mavericks, you will have to switch your calendar to iCloud or another cloud-based option.
Syncing over USB is no longer an option in Mavericks.

When I sync my iPhone5 with my Macbook Pro I get the following message "iTunes could not sync calendars to the iPhone because the iPhone disconnected". The strange this is that the phone did not disconnect because it sync my contacts and is charging.
Why does this happen? I have tried several cables and it does the same thing.Try:

When I synced my phone with my mac, the music that I had in my phone got transferred to my mac. 140 songs to be exact, however I can no longer see the songs on my phone, only the purchased album I have appears. How can I get the songs I had back?
Connect your phone to computer, and sync like this. Check the boxes for the playlists, artists, albums you want to sync. Then click Apply. If you have enough space on your phone, you can choose Entire music library.

Go to Settings/ Store and under the category "Automatic Downloads" you can turn OFF the automatic download of purchases to your device (this needs to be done for each device). There's also a setting in iTunes just for automatic pushes to your iTunes library.
To remove a purchase you've made directly to your device, you can either:
a- Swipe across the song title from left to right and press Delete, or
b- If you auto-sync your device, connect to iTunes and click on the Music tab where you define your sync settings (the Music tab is to the right of the overall Summary page of your device). At the bottom of the Music tab you'll see direct purchases that are on your device -- simply un-check those and click "Apply" or "Sync" to remove them.
c- If you manually manage music on your device, connect to iTunes and click the small arrow to the left of your device name, and then click on the Music folder under your device. Then navigate to the item(s) you want to remove and then delete them.
To prevent things from syncing from your library to your device, there are many ways to do that (un-checking things in your library is one way, but not the best IMO). Might want to read the manual or some online tutorials on iTunes if you want to learn more. -

Since changing to icloud, my iphone is no longer recognised in itunes and does not show as a device nor can I sync it to my Macbook.
Any suggestions pleaseNothing has changed that would affect the way the iPad is recognized in iTunes. Here is the link to Apple's support article on this issue.

You probably have done all of these steps except for....
Mac OS X v10.6.8 or earlier only: Reinstall the Apple Mobile Device Service.
Here is another troubleshooting article that might help.

i signed into icloud last night on my macbook, but now realize i don't want to use it. I have looked at a lot of threads to try to figure out how to sign out, get rid of it and not lose my contacts, calendar and documents and data. I did a time machine backup thinking i could just get it back that way afterwards. So i signed out and have lost my contacts etc. My question is, i had not set icloud up on my iphone, so if i synched my phone with my macbook will it synch the lost contacts and calendars with my macbook or will i lose that information of my phone as well? The time machine backup up i did seemed to have that information missing as well. I am confused!
thanks for any help
julesThanks for reply, I had just updated to 10.8.5 on macbook. I had set up icloud on my macbook, signing in with password etc. it all happened so quick and it didnt allow me time to say no to document and data backup. At that stage i was interested only in having my calendar being able to be read over my iphone and macbook etc. When i realized icloud was not suitable to me, i looked up several threads on this issue. Then i went into system- icloud and it said backup now and because my usage was 4.99g unused out of 5g i just thought it hadn't got to that stage of backing up and that it would be safe to go through the process of signing out which of course involves having to press the delete of mac if i wanted to sign out.
sorry if long winded but i am unfamiliar with icloud as you can see but icloud is not suited to me and just want to get my stuff back out of icloud and restore my comp to the way it was.
thanks for your help

I just tried to sync calendar on my iPhone 3 (ver. 4.2.1) with my MacBook Pro (Lion ver. 10.7.4). It doesn't sync. Is there any way to do it?
Have you updated your itunes to the latest version? You have to have itunes to sync the phone to any computer.

Why does it take SO long to synchronize my iphone with my macbook pro
Hi fellow users,
It takes unbelievable long for my iPhone 4S to synchronise with my MacBook Pro. Happens everytime.
I started the synch early yesterday evening (19:00). It is now 10:35 the following day and it is still not finished.
Has anyone any ideas?
Have a great day Desmond, a Brit living in Germany.I have this aggravating issue as well, only I just have an iPhone 4s 16GB (yes, STILL!). One of the (many) reasons I haven't upgraded is the deteriorating performance factors induced by Apple. If it takes forever to sync just a 16GB iPhone, syncing a 64GB or 128GB iPhone must be an all day test of aggravation! Since I'm finding no credible or relevant answers here I thought I'd post my observations. When I watch the sync process, I can see that the procedure backs up my iPhone data, removes it from the phone, then reinstalls it again with any updates to the data since the last sync. This is a programming "feature". I don't know what the reasons are for not designing the sync process to handle only changed data as in any other data backup process. Maybe it's laziness at Apple, maybe it's a technical issue that their programmers are incapable of solving, or maybe there's a monitoring aspect involved that this method allows Apple to collect information on users more effectively. I just don't know their reasons for this, or many baffling things they do. I do know that if their corporate data backups were performed in the same manner in which the iPhone sync is performed, there would never be a break in the backup processes at Apple, nor would the process ever complete. It's ludicrous to program the SW (iTunes) run this inefficiently. I can't fathom having a larger capacity iPhone and dealing with the constant aggravation of what must be hours to sync simple data changes caused only by the poor routine programmed into iTunes. From what I can see, it's basically like loading a blank phone every time I want to sync data. Completely ridiculous as far as I can tell. Even if the reasoning is to remove dead sectors, blank sectors etc, I'd think with all the money Apple has and makes on a quarterly basis, they could afford to spend the time and money in R&D to make the sync process a **** of lot more tolerable for users.

I have a macbook pro, and am trying to update my software. I recently bought an iphone 5, and my software is to out of date to sync my phone with itunes. I currently am running 10.5.8 and I need to update to atleast 10.6.8. Just wondering if I need to purchase it from apple or if there is an easy/free way to update it.
you need to purchase it: http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard. It is only on a disk, not in download form.

I have updated my iPhone 3Gs to the latest software in an attempt to iron out a problem with a new telephone network provider (Tmobile). I had backed up my phone before I did this. Now I have lost my music and apps. I can't sync the phone with my Mac, I can't re-download from iTunes as the phone says I don't have any music or apps available to re-download although it all shows up on my Mac. The music and app content cannot be restored when I try to restore the phone from the back up I madeon my Mac. Help!
Working on that now. I'm just getting frustrated that everytime I run updates for the phone I end up with tech problems that I have to spend time solving as opposed to updates that actually improve my usage. Now I will once again get to spend hours reloading my phone all for updates that didn't affect my usage in the first place.

I have an iPhone and keep my calendar into it. I have synced all photos. How do I get the calendar to sync with my MacBook Pro?
Enable iCloud on both, and Calendars on the iPhone should sync with iCal on the Mac wirelessly.

I tried to update the software of my iphone 3gs while charging with my Macbook Pro. While the phone was restarting after installation, in the setting up my phone menu, it stops midway with a message in itunes on the laptop that there is no simcard.
Then put a SIM in. You cannot activate an iPhone without a compatible Sim.
If your iPhone was hacked/jailbroken the update restore the lock. -
my iphone 5 will not sync with my macbook pro. it says my computer is no longer authorized to download purchased items from the iphone. However, when I go to authorize my computer, it says it is already authorized. How do I fix this?
You can't change the Apple ID that the Authorize dialog comes up with by default. It's showing you that Apple ID for a reason: it means that the items you want to play were purchased using that Apple ID and therefore you need to authorize your computer with that Apple ID. Changing the Apple ID given completely defeats the entire purpose.
If you don't know the password to the given Apple ID, then you will no longer be able to play those items.
