Notes on iPhone5 not syncing to other devices nor to iCloud in the "On My iPhone" account. How to fix?

I have not been able to sync my existing Notes on my iPhone4S to other devices, nor to my iCloud account. On the iPhone4S, I see I now have two Notes accounts: "On My iPhone" and my Apple ID account. All notes in the Apple ID account sync as they should. None of the "On My iPhone" notes sync at all. Seems to have started with the upgrade to iOS6 but not sure.
I have all devices on current software as of 12-12-12, all settings for iCloud and Notes have sync'ing enabled. I've sync'd with iTunes, backed up to my computer, disconnected, shut down, and cold-started the iPhone4S. Any suggestions to get these notes sync'ing most welcome.

Basically what your looking at in on the Accounts page of the Notes App is where you are saving the notes. On this iPhone, notes are saved on this iPhone and don't sync to other devices. You say you see an account for your Apple ID. I don't know what you mean cause I've not seen that. I do have an iCloud account that syncs to other devices and I created the account in Settings > iCloud > Notes and I was prompted to create the account. If that's what you mean by Apple ID account simple copy and paste the notes from the On this iPhone account to the iCloud account to sync across your devices
Hope that helps

You didn't import all of your pics regularly? Particularly before an update?
They may very well be gone.
You can try restoring from backup.

Did the iOS device connect before?
Try the following to rule out a software problem:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on the router
- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings

If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

Ipod internet will not work. but my computer and other devices work

It shows that i am connected to the internet, yet it wont load any sites. It will load google. But when i go to click on a site, it'll either pop up as safari cannot open because your ipod touch isnt connected to the internet, or a server issue. Every now and then it will work, but then after a minute it will just go back to its old ways.
I've tried reconnecting and connecting the wifi on the ipod
I tried to reset network settings.
I've turned my modem on and off.
Again, it may only work for a couple minutes or so, but then itll just go back to its old ways.
My laptop, phone, and other stuff works on the wifi, I am only having the problem with the ipod.
Facebook and instagram app works also. but safari isnt

First, create a separate login on your computer for your friend. Do this BEFORE you do anything else. Next, make sure iTunes is up to date. Then:
1. Disable auto sync when an iPod/iPhone is connected under Preferences>Devices in iTunes.
2. Make sure you have one contact & one event in the supported applications(Address Book, iCal) on your computer. These entries can be fake, doesn't matter, the important point is that these programs not be empty.
3. Connect her phone, iTunes running, do not sync at this point.
4. Store>Authorize this computer.
5. File>Transfer Purchases(To make sure all purchased content on her phone will be in her itunes library).
6. Right click in the device pane & select reset warnings.
7. Right click again and select backup.
8. Right click again & select restore from backup, select the backup you just made. When prompted to create another backup, decline.
9. This MUST be followed by a sync to restore her itunes content, which you select from the various tabs, You'll get a popup regarding her contacts & calendars asking to merge or replace, select merge.
You should be good to go.

Hi Jose Sam,
It sounds like some of your photos are over 30 days old.

http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3989
I see different photos in My Photo Stream on each of my devices.
Your device will keep up to 1000 photos, even if they are older than 30 days. Photos older than 30 days are removed from the iCloud server, so all devices may not have the same photos, depending on when you enabled My Photo Stream.
You may want to sync the older photos through iTunes to get them on your new iPad mini.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.

TS3988 My ipad don't sync with other devices

My ipad don't sync with other devices. It works in my iPhone, IMac. At iCloud web page is ok also, but not in my IPad. The settings are the same in both my IPhone and my IPad.

Make sure you are using the same Send & Recieve address on the iPAa as you are using on the iPhone (and that it is an address registered with your AppleID).

My Macbook Pro will not charge. I have tried other charges and nothing. Can the MagSafe port go bad? Is that expensive to repair?

The port can fail. Internal boards can fail. Batteries can fail. All with the result that no charging occurs.
You can try Resetting the System Management Controller and you can try Troubleshooting MagSafe adapters.
But usually you will have to take the mac in to a service place for testing. It can get expensive, although occasionally it is not.

How can I sync my iPad to a computer after syncing it to the iCloud? I have the option of setting it up new, or restoring to a sync from many months ago. I dont want to lose any apps but I would like to back up on computer. No auto sync like other devices

How can I sync my iPad to a computer after syncing it to the iCloud? I have the option of setting it up new, or restoring to a sync from many months ago. I dont want to lose any apps but I would like to back up on computer. No auto sync like other devices.

Plug it into your computer. Tell it to sync with "this computer" instead of iCloud. You shouldn't have to remove any apps. Otherwise, you can save the app data by using i-FunBox ( http://www.i-funbox.com/ ) just go to the "devices" tab and select 'user applications' and select all of your apps and tell iFunBox to "copy to pc" you're done! You have them all backed up.

MacBook Pro won't sync with other devices

My MacBook pro won't sync with other devices in the house. My iPad and iPhone sync OK but MacBook won't for some reason. Can you help?

Sign into your account in iTunes - from that page you should be able to deauthorise ALL 5 authorised computers - supposedly you can do this once a year.
Thereafter any devices you no longer have will be deauthorised, and you can reauthorise those you still have or are new.

Able to connect keyboard to only one mac ...not able to connect to my other mac at work after disconnecting the first one ...any suggestions please

Hello,
I am able to connect my wireless keyboard to only one mac ...not able to connect to my other mac at work after disconnecting the first one ...any suggestions please
thanks,

Hello:
You will need to delete the keyboard from the other Mac. Simply disconnecting it leaves it still paired with the first Mac.

I hope so too. So what have you actually done to fix your issue?

My email account in Mail.app is IMAP, but when I delete emails, they don't delete from other devices connected to the mail server with IMAP. Deleted mail on other devices delete as normal from the server and thus from other devices as normal.

MacBook Pro, late 2011 version. Up to date Mountain Lion.
My email account in the Mail.app is set up as IMAP, but when I delete emails in the Mac Mail App, they are not deleted from the mail clients of the other devices that are connected to the mail server with IMAP. IMAP works perfectly between Windows Outlook 2010, iPad Mail App and Android default mail client. Deleted messages behave correctly, as in delete from one device and the mail is deleted from all devices.
Having just tested in reverse order on the Mac; emails deleted from the email client on Windows, iPad and Android are not deleted in the Mac Mail App. It appears that the account is behaving like POP rather than IMAP.
Any advice on how to have IMAP work correctly on the MacBook Pro Mail.app?
Thank you.

Hi Csound1, thanks. The email host is 1and1.co.uk, however, i am going to fess up and make myself look like a plonker now -
the email account in question was set up in Outlook as POP - stupid, stupid, stupid me, wasted an afternoon on this! I have now changed the Outlook account to IMAP and Mail.app works perfectly - and looks much nicer than Outlook did. Im in the middle of converting from Windows to a Mac, and still finding my way around the Mac
The lesson learned, never assume - always double check! All my other email addresses with 1and1 are all imap, except this one, and it happened to be the first one I set up in the Mail.app. (bows head in disgrace!)
Thank you anyway for attempting to help me!
Cheers

I have had similar issues backing up to iCloud. Thy only thing I have found to work every time is backing up to iTunes and then doing a restore to my new device. That includes iPhone 6.
