Notes not syncing with Mac

I'm trying to set up Notes to sync across my Mac and iPad (I checked, and it is not currently working).
On the iPad, I went to Settings. Mail, Contacts and Calendars and enabled the on/off switch next to Notes, but i got the message that to turn on notes i must create a free iCloud account, with a "Cancel" or "Create" option.
I recall that I had already set up an iCloud account, but there was no button with the option "I have already set up an iCloud account."
What do I do next?

External hard drive not in sync with Mac Book Pro

I recently upgraded to a Mac Book Pro from my old and trusted ibook G4 but kept my portable external hard drive. With my ibook, my external hard drive's folders were all organised by name but since using my Mac Book Pro, my folders on my hard drive are all over the place and every time I reorganise them by name, it doesn't save and just reverts back to a disorganised fashion. Why? I didn't select my portable external hard drive to be my time machine because I was worried about erasing it. Any ideas?

The drive is formatted for Windows (NTFS.) To be able to write to it on a Mac, you will either have to reformat it (erasing all data on the drive) or install third-party software. The choice of format depends on your intended use for the drive. For cross-platform compatibility, use FAT32 or ExFAT. For maximum OS X compatibility, use Mac OS Extended.

I cannot sync my Notes between my ipad, my iphone and my mac, despite setting Notes to sync with iCloud

I cannot sync my Notes between my ipad, my iphone and my mac, despite setting Notes to sync with iCloud. Any Suggestion?

perfect. ok do the following:
settings > mail, contacts, calendars > go into the exchange account. You should have an email in the account field...[email protected] or [email protected], etc.... I am assuming you don't remember the password to this exchange account so once you know the email, you can go to email providers site and click on forgot password and you will go through the steps to get a new password. Once you do this, you will need to go back into your "exchange account " and the field that has the exchange email > touch the > to open settings. Change the password to your new password you got from above. Once you do this, you can add the exchange account to your ipad and all of your contacts will sync to both devices.
Please confirm.

Gmail not syncing with .Mac

Hi,
I am having an issue with Gmail and Mail that I can't find a solution to anywhere and I am hoping that someone here can provide some insight.
I use Mail.app on a G5 and an iBook and use .Mac to keep mail, calendar and addresses in-sync b/w the two. I have 4 email accounts set up in Mail.app: DotMac, Gmail, Qwest.net and another POP account. All of them work sync fine b/w the two machines except for Gmail. I can receive Gmail on either machine without any problem. The trouble begins when I receive Gmail on one machine, sync with .Mac, and then go to the other machine and sync with .Mac there. The Gmail email that I received on the first machine and already read doesn't show up on the new machine. However, the other email addresses all do this just fine. Does it have something to do with the way Gmail's POP service works? I have Gmail set to archive emails. Does that matter?
I would greatly appreciate any help. This has been killing me!
Thnx!
Brian

Hi Brian.
First of all, .Mac doesn’t synchronize locally stored mail between computers. Only mail stored on the server can be synchronized, and you don’t need .Mac for that; any IMAP account would do. If you can see mail received on your POP accounts on both computers, it’s because they’re both downloading it from the server, not because of any .Mac synchronization.
Moreover, Gmail POP access doesn’t work as a normal POP mail server would. Here are some of its idiosyncrasies:
1. Messages downloaded by any conventional POP mail client are marked as downloaded at the server (but not as read on the web), and no longer available to either the same or any other POP mail client.
2. To make already downloaded Gmail messages available for POP access again, you must log into your Gmail account with a web browser and re-enable POP downloading for all your messages, which will cause everything (and I mean everything) still there to be downloaded again.
3. Any Mail > Preferences > Accounts > Advanced > Remove copy from server settings have absolutely no effect on the messages stored on Gmail’s server. The reason is that, after being downloaded, those messages are no longer available to any mail client, not even to the same client that has just downloaded them, not even for deleting them or checking whether they are still there.
4. Messages created and sent using the web interface will be downloaded by your POP mail client as if they were incoming messages. You can set up a rule in Mail to automatically route those messages to the appropriate Sent mailbox (or to any other mailbox for that matter) if that's what you want. Although this may seem weird, it's good because it allows archiving all messages locally in Mail, regardless of how they were sent -- as long as you don't access the same Gmail account with more than one POP mail client, that is.
5. Messages created and sent using a POP mail client such as Mail are also treated as if they were incoming messages for POP purposes, just as in 4. What prevents them from being downloaded is that Gmail marks them as already downloaded immediately. They would, however, be downloaded if Gmail settings were changed as described in 2 above.
6. As a particular case of 5, messages sent to yourself will appear in your Inbox on the web, but cannot be downloaded by either the same or any other POP mail client.

Flashvideo stuttering, sound not in sync with video

Can't help it: flashvideos are stuttering and the sound is not in sync with the video as the video/picture always is like a second late to the sound.
Tried Firefox, Safari, Google Chrome, even with older flashplayer-versions than 11.5.502.110 as it is now, cleared chache, enabled and disabled hardware acceleration, tested different cache memory size (flashplayer internal settings), with or without camera and microphone allowance, every time I get the same results in a choppy / stuttering video and no sync in picture / sound.
My System is as followed:
MacBook Pro early 2008
MacBookPro4,1
Intel Core 2 Duo
2,5 GHz
L2-Cache:    6 MB
RAM:    4 GB
Bus:    800 MHz
with a GeForce 8600M GT
PCIe-Bus
VRAM 512 MB
Internet-connection via cable at least with 5 Mbit/sec up to mostly around 20 Mbit/sec and a 802.11n WLAN (tried LAN cable too, same effect)
My OSX is Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and I want to stick with that one, I keep the browsers and the flashplugin always up to date and I am not using a lot of background programs when watching, just one firewall and the usual system processes as I can see in the activity monitor, not much of percentage in processor usage, maybe 2 to 5 in percent all together, talking only of the background usage.
The core / processor usage, when a flashmovie is running, is around 80 to 90 percent,
there is an amount of 45 or so GB harddrive space empty and
somewhat of 1,8 GB of RAM not in use.
The connection-quality as shown in, say the "nfl game pass" window is very good up to max.
Sometimes, when the internet isn't that fast and the connection drops, the picture gets worse and the sound too, but that occurs not very often, maybe once a day and mostly when starting a video. After 10 seconds or so the quality of the picture and sound is high like brilliant HD, cannot complain about that, but the stuttering and out of sync sound remains.
I watch the flash videos at internal mac-book-pro monitor 1440x900 fullscreen, sometimes not fullscreen,
tried an external LCD Sony Bravia Full HD Monitor via DVI to HDMI adapter too
and I am getting always, with any kind of configuration, the same results in stuttering video with sound out of sync.
Did already read faq's and forums and it seems that this is an issue for a long time with very different computer-setups and browsers in various versions of the flash-player. Couldn't find anything in accordance, like same graphic cards or same internetconnections, browsers or else, yet, so it comes down to the flash player.
The issue with the stuttering video and no sync in sound and video occurs at any time of the day with different streams, live, archived - I also tried changing the mac-system-flashplayer settings in different combinations with no change at all: stuttering video, no sync sound.
If there is any information else that you need, please let me know,
I hope you can help as this stuttering and async is getting quite annoying by now...
greez anyway, out of vienna, austria
thanx,
manfred

Hi Manfred,
When you have the high cpu, is hardware acceleration enabled? You mentioned this occurs with all releases that you've tested, does this include 10.3 on Firefox?

My address book not in sync with iPhone over mobileme

My address book on my laptop and desktop is not in sync with the one on my iPhone, even when using mobileme. Any recommendations on how to fix this?
Thanks!
John

Similar story here. My iphone's address book has no phone numbers but they're all on my mac. I have tried to synch over mobileme and USB but to no avail.
I have recently upgraded to snow leopard from tiger but can't say for definite that this is part of the problem.

Calendar Notes - Bidirectional Sync with Exchange 2003 not working

I have Exchange 2003. Active sync works but when I change notes field in an appointment from the iPhone, it does not sync that change to Exchange server. I have an appointment on the iphone with notes, but I cannot see the notes I created from the iPhone on my Outlook connected to my Exchange server. Works fine with Exchange 2007 but not with 2003. Anyone else noticed this?

the new iphone does not sink with outlook 2003 and my sync with mac
is far far less than perfect (300 out of 2500 contacts sync). The iphone techs tell me this problem is universal. I sure didn't get this information when I bought the phone. The apple techs for cannot fix these problems. The software seems flawed.

Business partner creation - Not in sync with customer numbers -

Hi All
I am trying to do the BP conversion in collections management.
The customer number range for account group ZXXX is (80000 to 89999) and the external number range flag is not selected.
I have created created a number range Y2 through BUCF, with numbers from (80000 to 89999), I did not choose external flag, thinking it should be same as customer number range. I have created a BP group ZXXX and assigned this number range Y2.
Later when I did the BP conversion through MDS_LOAD_COCKPIT, I observed that the BPs are not in sync with the customer numbers.
So my question, should I have choosen external number range flag in BUCF, even though its not selected in the customer number range? Has this caused the issue?
Please help me understand this and rectify this issue.
thanks in advance.
Krishna

Hi Christobal,
Thank you so much for you response.
As suggested, I have checked BP number range as external. Later when I ran MDS_LOAD_COCKPIT, I get the below messages
Grouping ZXXX has external number assignment, enter a number
Partner data processed with key PartnerGUID 4E1BD7375F080AE0E10080000A5B030E
Grouping ZXXX has external number assignment, enter a number
So is there any other setting which I might be missing?
Please advise.
Thanks
Krishna

Audio not in sync with video in imovie 08 version 7.1.1

I am importing many Hi 8 tapes using a Sony video walkman GV-D800 thru a firewire 400 port on my Macbook pro, when I play it back in imovie the audio/voice is not in sync with the lip movement of the people in the video, there is a 1-3 second delay. If I play back the same video I captured using QuickTime Player there are no sync problems? I am new at this so what am I doing wrong?
BTW. I also imported HDV using my HDV camera and there are no sync problems at all. Any suggestions are appreciated.

Welcome to the  Discussion Forums.
Is this delay present on your exports or is it merely when previewing in imovie.

Nokia 6131 video not in sync with sound

After a year of working just fine, my Nokia 6131 video picture is not in sync with the sound when I play it back on the phone or when I download it to my pc to view.
At first the problem was only when I played it back on the phone, but was fine on the pc. Now it's distorted on both.
The video picture seems to be on fast forward but the sound runs smoothly. My video's are always less than five mins long.
Please can anyone help me to resolve this frustrating problem?
Katie Girl
Solved!
Go to Solution.

hey KatieGirl, i too had the same problem with my old nokia 6288. have you tried turning off your phone and restarting it, this usually helps in alleviating choppy video playback. if this is still resulting in **bleep** playback on your phone and pc, then i would suggest searching for a software update via Nokia Software Updater, if there is no update, then i would suggest re-flashing your phone with the same version firmware again. p.s. remember to backup all your data before flashing your phone with firmware.
failing all this, then i would suggest taking your phone to your nearest Nokia Care Centre or authorised service repair centre, as there may be a fault with your phone hardware itself.
hope this helps.
