My phone won't sync to my MacBook anymore! Please help!

Ever since this whole iCloud thing has been out, every time I plug my phone into my MacBook, it'll "sync," but none of my calendar events from my phone will sync onto my iCal.  Before iCloud, every time I plugged my phone in, anything that would be on my phone would sync, especially everything on iCal.  I can't figure it out, please help!

Since your phone is syncing with iCloud, it will not sync your calendar and contacts with your Mac using iTunes.  To solve this, you need to also sync your Mac with your iCloud account.  However, this requires OS X 10.7.5 (Lion) or higher.  If your system supports it (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5842), you can download a free upgrade to OS X Mavericks from the Mac App Store.  If your system can only run OS X Lion (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5842), you can go here to purchase a redemption code to download it from the Mac App Store.
Once you upgrade the OS X operating system on your Mac, you can go to System Preferences>iCloud, sign into your iCloud account and check the data you want to sync with iCloud (calendars, contacts, etc.).  After that, your Mac will be able to sync with your phone using iCloud whenever it's connected to the internet.

  • My songs won't sync to my iPhone. Please help.

    So I transfered all my songs from my PC to my MacBook via HomeSharing. I hook up my iPhone to my Mac and all my songs won't sync. Only 100 songs have synced. This is a really frustrating situation. I have tried everything. I have made sure that "Sync entire library" is checked, I have rebooted my phone, restarted my computer, everything! This really needs to be fixed. It's impossible how there is a problem like this.

    hey I got one too and I was able to get throught he first part by shutting down the firewall. make sure you're offline.

  • Iphone won't sync ringtone-says not authorized-please help???

    Hi and thanks in advance for the help.
    I purchased a few ringtones. Three synced fine. My favorite choice did not. When finished syncing a pop-up said that it couldn't sync the song because I wasn't authorized to listen to it on this computer. HOWEVER, the song itself is downloaded, I can't listen to it on my computer and on my iphone, it just doesn't show up in the ringtones with the others where I really want it to be! Any ideas??? Thanks!

    Thought that would work, but didn't. Again, the computer does play the song, does allow the iphone to play the song BUT NOT as a ringtone. That's where the problem is. I did go in and try to authorize the computer, but as suspected, it came back saying it was already authorized. Since, it has done this with yet another song when trying to create ringtone. I don't like being charged an extra fee for the ringtone and then not being able to sync it as such. If I buy it directly from the iphone, there is no problem, but going back in to create a ringtone from a purchased song is where the problem is but only for some ringtones, not all. UGH!
    Thanks in advance for your help.

  • AE won't sync up with my modem. please help

    I have a new modem from my new cable service. When I plug my mac directly into my modem via ethernet, the internet works fine.
    When I plug that ethernet cable into the AE base station and get onto that network via airport, no pages load.
    I have version 5.7 firmware on my AE and all my software is up to date.
    Please help!

    Is this is a cable modem?
    Most cable modems need to be powered down when you switch the Ethernet connection from one device to another. When the modem is powered up, it discovers the new device and will communicate with it.
    Some cable modems have a reset button.
    Some cable modems have a small internal battery which must be removed to do the reset.
    Some cable modems must be turned off for several hours (or even overnight) to allow the equipment back at the ISP time to reset.

    I don't have the iPhone button, as illustrated in the first picture. I've tried the tips that are mentioned in the first few steps and still nothing. My phone won't sync at all! I'm not completely computer illiterate; but, I am not well versed either. Could someone please tell me what I need to do to bring this back so I can sync my phone and laptop (windows op system).

    The screen-shot is on a Mac computer. It is very similar in Windows iTunes.  Have a look at this set of instructions instead.

  • ICal won't sync from my MacBook Pro to MobileMe

    iCal won't sync from my MacBook Pro to MobileMe.  But MobileMe entries appear on iCal on the MacBook. My iPhone and iPad work fine.  Any suggestions?

    Hi melindybek ,
    You are awesome and already a step ahead! The logs are blank, because by default they are off. If its necessary to turn them on the directions on, instructions of how to to this are at the end.
    To check if they are both on the updated version, its possible to check by going to accounts.firefox.com to see if you are logged in. If so, both are updated. If not, how to update: sign in at that address to be on the new one.
    Toggling the sync may jumpstart it too. Removing the account and adding it back starts a fresh sync, or Tools > Sync Now.
    * How do I turn on sync logs:
    # Open about:config and turn on: services.sync.log.appender.file.logOnSuccess and services.sync.log.logger.engine.bookmarks
    # Restart Firefox and look at: about:sync-log
    # Logs and error messages will be located here
    Please also use pastebin.mozilla.org for sharring any errors that relate to this issue.
    Thank you.

  • Curve won't sync with Microsoft Outlook anymore

    All of the sudden today, my phone won't sync with Outlook.  It starts to sync and a box pops up that says "Blackberry Desktop Manager has encountered a problem and needs to close".  It is stopping in the sync during the calander and it keeps stopping at "record 95 of 2403 records".  Then a box pops up asking if I want to send the error to Microsoft, which I did.  When I went to their link they said the problem is with RIM.
    Any suggestions for me are very much appreciated!
    Thanks,

    Hi and welcome to the forums!
    You have a corrupt record in Outlook calendar, is it stopping on near the exact record.
    Use this procedure to provide a resolution. Instead of address book use calendar. For Intellisync
    sure the sync options on your DM.

    Has your carrier been having issues with Call Display? Do the telephone numbers come up when people call, or does it just show 'Unknown Number' or 'Blocked' ?

    Need some help: my itunes won't sync with my iphone anymore. Both softwares are up to date and I've reinstalled itunes. After I reinstall, it syncs. But then when I reboot my computer, it no longer syncs anymore and I have to keep reinstalling itunes. Thoughts???

    thought that it was possible to have the same iTunes library on any machine that was authorised, a kind of cloud-iTunes I guess. 
    That would convenient, but sadly it is not the case. Sorry!
    Either way your welcome and best of luck!
