New 8900 (Sync issue??)

Just received my shiny new BB 8900 which is looking to be a brilliant piece of kit.
Yet I seem to have one issue that I cannot find an answer to anywhere so I thought you lovely people here may have the answer?
I have Sync'd my contacts from Windows Contacts (Vista Home) to the device but when I go to the contacts on the Blackberry itself the all show a picture in with the contact details which is the actual picture I have set for my user (administrator) on my PC I really cant work out why this is happening?
Has anyone else had this problem if so please could you tell me how to stop this happening?
Many Thanks in advance

This has nothing to do with your iPad.
This is the number of computers you have authorized with your iTunes account with iTunes.
Is this the only computer that has been authorized with your iTunes account with iTunes? No other computer has been authorized that is still available or that was sold or given to someone else without you deauthorizing the computer before doing so?
It makes no difference until you reach 5 authorized computers. At that time you can deauthorize all at once followed by re-authorizing the computer or computers being used at that time.

8900 Sync issue

I'm a new Blackberry user, trying to get my initial setup going with the 8900 Curve. Having loaded the desktop software, I'm getting an error message "Unknown Error Reported" from intellisync when I configure synchronization. Background info: Currently running Windows XP with all virus software off. I use Hotmail as my main email. I have heard of the sync issues with Hotmail so I downloaded the Outlook Connector and, using MS Outlook 2003 on my desktop, I can see all of my hotmail mail showing up on the desktop. Is there something I need to change on the handheld device to interface with the computer and allow syncing? Is there a setting I need to change in MS Outlook on my desktop? I have been receiving email on my handheld device using my initial hotmail email without any difficulty.
Any help greatly appreciated (and sorry for my Blackberry ignorance - as I said, I'm new to the process...)

Could mean that the calendar database on the BlackBerry is corrupt. Are the entries in Outlook more up to data than the ones on the BlackBerry? If so you could try clearing the BlackBerry database, then syncing again. To clear the database on the BlackBerry, go into Backup and Restore | Advanced. On the right hand side you'll see the BlackBerry's databases. So you can select the calendar, then hit the Clear button. That will remove all the entries from the BlackBerry calendar. Afterwards try synching.

New Calendar Sync Issue with new iPad2

My calendar has synched flawlessly with my google calendar and Mac previously, but since adding a new iPad2 to the mix, I am having some issues.
I noted today that when I made a change on the MBP, the iPad calendar was not updated during a sync. So I checked the settings and "sync calendars" was not checked. Odd since it always synched in the past.
So I selected sync calendars and got the message that over 2000 entries would be added or modified on the MBP. I have also chosen to not sync events more than 30 days old but some of these items go back to 2006.
An example.
Event happening in April of 2008 shows no original date (whatever that means) so the modification is to add an original date of 12/31/00.
I have no clue what this is about or why the iPad sync is not working correctly.
Any advice would be much appreciated.

try removing proxy settings on gprs connection and try again. Sounds like a proxy problem.

New Computer--Syncing Issues

About a month and a half ago my Macbook got water spilled on it and the logic board got fried--I took this as a sign to upgrade to the newest Pro model. I have acquired a few new ebooks recently and would like to put them onto my first-gen wifi iPad. However I don't have the ~30 books from my last computer and only about half of them were purchased in itunes, the rest given to me from friends and over the web. In short, I do not have access to all these books anymore.
The issue arises when I try to add my new book it simply does not allow me to and tells me my iPad can only be synced with one library at a time and it needs to be erased to do so.
My questions are:
a) can I get my books and apps off the iPad and how do I go about doing so
b) will I ultimately have to do a clean reset of the iPad and rebuild?

- You can transfer iTunes purchases to your new computer via:

- You can transfer other stuff via:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2766455&tstart=30
After you transfer all stuff, you do need to have iTunes erase you iPad and replace its contents with that on your new computer. You will lose app data though. One way to avoid that is to get the backup file from you old computer and place that on your new computer and restore from backup. For locations See:

New upgrade, sync issues

I just got the newest upgrade, May 22, 2011, and now when I sync a window pops up that states: "iTunes could not back up the iPhone because the iPhone disconnected".
Of course it wasn't disconnected at all, and the battery indicator still showed a connection. Can anyone help?
Thanks.

In you case as you have written
THe reason is whoever deveoped this they used customized AD connectors so I am not sure stright forward document will help?
If you are using customized connector then documentation not gonna help you. It's better to see what they have done in new connector and you can add those few things in your old connector as you are already using customized connector of AD.
And we tried to upgrade the AD connector long back but we faced few issues. I don remember the versions exactly, in the new connector they have changed location of some class files.

New iPad2 Sync issue

I just got a new iPad2 and after syncing it to my PC it says I have connected to 3 out of the maximum of 5 computers. It's brand-new and has only ever been connected to the one machine. How can I reset this back to one?

This has nothing to do with your iPad.
This is the number of computers you have authorized with your iTunes account with iTunes.
Is this the only computer that has been authorized with your iTunes account with iTunes? No other computer has been authorized that is still available or that was sold or given to someone else without you deauthorizing the computer before doing so?

New password sync issues

I've recently changed my .Mac password and now when adding photos to a .Mac online gallery it won't sync with iPhoto. I get the following error message,
An error occurred with the publication of album “XXXXXX.”
Your MobileMe account information is not correct. The provided login or password is not valid.<
I dutifully opened MobileMe prefs and there's nowhere to change password. Well, O.K., there is a place and I entered my new password as the old one and new one, since it has been working properly everywhere else.
So, I guess the question is, How do I get iPhoto to recognize my new .Mac password?
And yes, I know its now MobileMe, but I never liked that and Mr. Jobs certainly didn't check w/ me before changing everything.
Thanks for your kind consideration and help,
Louie

Try the following:
1 - go to the System/MobileMe preference pane and log out of MMe.
2 - login with a bogus username and password like "test" and "test". This clears the caches.
3 - login with your correct username and password.
4 - launch iPhoto and try again.

New Touch/Sync Issue

I'm trying to set up Home Sharing for an existing iTunes account with a new Touch. I've set up Home Sharing on the laptop and the Touch. When I try to sync the new Touch to the music libary nothing happens. At the top of the page it says "Step 1 of 3", "Step 2 of 3" and "Step 3 of 3" but then nothing. Any ideas?
Thanks!

Sold old iPhone, bought (used) new one, syncing issues

First, I'm using a PC.
Before I sold the old iPhone I backed it up in iTunes. Plugged the new one in, restored from the backup of my old phone, everything was perfect. Now, I'm trying to sync new purchases and music onto the new phone, and iTunes is not recognizing it, saying I need to restore (from the old backup) or set it up as a new phone. I noticed that the serial number associated with my iTunes account does not match the serial number on the new phone. How do I remedy this!?!?

:bump:
Any help out there?

New ipod sync issues with itunes libraries

my old ipod classic screen has shattered and a friend has given their old ipod classic, which has been erased of old data, so it is clean.
the ipod connects fine, but when i go to "sync" in "file" it won't let me, i restored the factory settings on the ipod via "settings" and "reset settings", and restarted pc as itunes requested, but the only way to transfer the music was via "autofil" from "devices" menu, but i still can't autofil movies or tv shows.
i noticed when i go to "file" it now says "sync songs" rather than simply "sync" but it still won't give me the option to sync, so how do i sync my whole library with my ipod.
any advice would sincerely appreciated.
many thanks.

Not sure why this is occurring - no such problem with my iPad, nor with 3 different iPhones used over the last 4 years.
Do you have manually manage music and videos selected under the Summary tab for your iPad sync preferences, or are do you have Sync Movies selected under the Movies tab along with Sync Music under the Movies tab and Sync Apps under the Apps tab?

New iTunes syncing issues

Ever since I updated iTunes there have been a couple albums that show up in my library on my computer but not on my iPhone, what do I do?

Confirm that you have them selected in iTunes for syncing with the iPhone.

Like many others, I got the new iPad 3 and couldn't sync all of my photos. The best i got was 1,000 out of 15,000 to work. Today Apple released iTunes 10.6.1.7 and said the syncing issue was resolved. I erased my ipod cache and hit sync. Still locked.

Like many others, I got my new IPad 3 and could not sync all of my photos. The highest I got was 1,000 out of 15,000. Today Apple released iTunes 10.6.1.7 that , among other things, said it fixed the sync issue with photos. I excitedly, erased my ipod cache and hit sync. It looked like it was working, but just like before iTunes locked. This time at 2,244 of 15,000. Anybody have an idea of how to fix this?

What's the capacity of your iPad?
iTunes needs up to 3x of the actual size of the files you want to sync during the sync process. And syncing 15.000 photos could cross the size of the available free space on your device.
Don't forget that the pictures are now optimized for the retina display, so the size increases for each of them.

New iPod Touch owner having syncing issues

I just got a new 8GB touch. Everytime I try to sync it, iTunes freezes. I have installed the OS update 3.1.2, backed up my library and uninstalled then reinstalled iTunes. I'm currently resetting the entire device. If that doesn't work, what else can I try?

This is a syncing issue with having 5 authorized computers. My computer crashd ans is in the shop. When I tried to authorize my laptop to transfer my playlists (and everything else) from my touch, the only option I found was to deauthorize all my computers. I now cannot figure out how to get my music library from my Touch into my laptop I-Tunes account. Every options seeems to indicate that the material on my touoch woul;d be erased. I want everything from my Touch to replace what is on my laptop. I am sure I am missing something obvious, but need help.

Hi Ken,
Wow, I've logged into adobe and never seen your response until now.
I need to make the forums more of a daily stop I guess.
Thank you for your response, When I go to the Archives, it states I have none. In addition, previously when I'd tried to move items to the archive, they just disappeared
Currently my desktop is not connecting at all, Everytime I connect, it's states "We have now logged you out" and requests I login again.
I have of course rebooted,
Gone into taskmanager, killed all the relevant threads, tried again to login through the desktop, no luck, I'll have to uninstall it, make sure the threads are killed, then reboot it and then reinstall it, but I've not had the time to do that.
On another note, and just as a point of reference, myself, personally, I hate these "cloud" file repositories (not to be confused with adobe cloud services which I love) but the file repositories themselves imho, are a blackhole of resource usage when one doesn't/isn't using them,
Is there a way we can use it more of a "ftp" sort of thing, when I want to I can put files there? There is no way to "Download" the repository, no way to download the folders.. only individual files and then it takes I think three different steps before the download starts.. I find this very inhibiting. Just an fyi. for what it's worth.
Please, feel free to contact me,
I'm on g+ chat [email protected]

Sync issues after moving entire iTunes library to new iMac

I have a question regarding moving an itunes library to a new computer and what happens to the devices that were synced with it.
I moved a clients entire iTunes folder from the user-music folder on one iMac to another iMac, replacing it's itunes folder.
I then opened iTunes and it read the library just fine, all content intact.
The issue was with syncing the ipods that were originally connected to the previous computer.
I thought that I could just hook up their iPod to the new iMac, since it is essentially the same iTunes folder/content/data and all should continue syncing just fine. Nope.
The ipod (touch) would show 'syncing' yet no data would move between it and the new iMac.
Same thing with their Apple TV - it was originally being synced with the older iMac.
I had hoped, once moving the entire itunes folder to the new imac, that itunes would just go on talking with the Apple TV. Not the case.
So far, the only thing I can do is to do a 'restore' on the ipod touch, then treat it like a new ipod and sync it with the new computer.
I haven't dealt with the Apple TV issue yet - it would not be fun to erase the entire contents of the apple tv, then resync with the new imac. Lots of data to move around - but perhaps this is the only way?
Kind of a bummer. Is this correct?
It never gave me the 'this ipod is being synced with another computer/library' message either. It 'seemed' like it was going to work as I had hoped.
I looked all over the computer, preferences folders, etc. to see if I could find something that associated the ipod with a particular library. I did locate the ipod backups folder in the application support folder and moved it over to the new computer too.
I've always moved client's itunes library from their old computer to new computer without issues - I don't remember their being an issue with previously synced devices like iPods/iphones/Apple TV's.

You didn't mention whether or not you authorized the new computer in iTunes. If not, do that and then sync the iPod. The iPod will recognize that this is a new computer and will ask you if you want to proceed - in this case, you want to do exactly that.
