Notes sync and MobileMe, maybe, but not iPhone
I think someone forgot to communicate with the iTunes, MobileMe and iPhone teams.
I can sync my notes with MobileMe. Can't find them anywhere on MobileMe. Not sure if they are really synced.
I can sync my notes with iPhone and iTunes, but have to be connected by cable. No immediate update.
Why can't I sync my Notes on the iPhone the same way bookmarks are synced?
Shouldn't iTunes say: "Your Notes are being synced with your iPhone over the air from MobileMe"?
Shouldn't iPhone have an ON/OFF for Notes, the same as Mail or Calendar?
[spent 20 mins with MobileMe chat figuring this out:]
Notes on the iPhone sync to desktop Mail as "On Your Mac" Notes (under Reminders), by cable only.
Mobile Me will sync Notes, but ONLY Notes that you create as attached to the MobileMe email account.
To do this, go into Mail Preferences, click on Composing, and set "Create Notes and To-Dos" to MobileMe in the dropdown (make sure you have set up your MobileMe account in Mail first). Now create a note in Mail. It will show up, in bold and marker felt font, as a entry in your MobileMe inbox.
When you log into me.com and click on mail, you will see the notes in your inbox, but not bold. However, they will not sync to the phone from there--I think they are designed to sync to another Mac computer, but do not have one to test. So they are not all that useful, IMO.
If you set the preference above to "last viewed account" instead of Mobile Me, then you can create notes in either place by selecting the MM inbox or On My Mac first.
Suggest you look into Evernote, Shovebox, Missing Sync for iPhone, or any of the many other note-syncing third-party options, because Apple's solution is pretty sad. Complain to Apple at
http://apple.com/feedback/
By the way, Amazon and other resellers sell MobileMe for ≤$70, regularly. The retail box contains an activation key that you can use to renew an account. No need to pay Apple's $99, unless the auto-convenience is worth $30 to you (and it may be, though, usually companies give a discount for auto-renewal. But okay, Apple).

I have one more pair of IPSAN switches. I configured them which are working fine. FCIP interface is showing "trunking". I have compared the configuration of working and non-working pairs and both are same (except the IP address of locate and remote and VSAN ids).
Please suggest what can be done. If I get the FCIP port in trunking, I hope VSAn will start merging.The problem is here -
Port mode is E, FCID is 0x9a0002
Port vsan is 1
What it says is yes, it is a trunk , but only an E port. So it is only trunking the port VSAN 1. What you want to do is change it to a Trunking E port, which allows it to carry multiple vsans over the link.
The other option is to change the port VSAN to 20. That will get you up, but if you need to trunk more vsans in the future you will still have to change the FCIP to a TE port.
When everything is right it should look something like this -
P28-MDS-9216# sho interface fcip 2

IPhone Contacts & Calendars not syncing with mobileme
Apologies if there is a solution to this posted already, I can't find it despite extensive searching!
My iPhone Calendars & Contacts do not sync with MobileMe. I can't find a way of exporting or saving the data on the iPhone and importing it into my desktop iCal & Contacts apps.
I have looked at all troubleshooting help I can find, and all is suggested is deleting/ resetting the phone & syncing from MobileMe. However, if I do this I will lose lots of contacts & calendar entries.
The data will NOT sync from my phone despite following all available instructions. My desktop apps are all set to sync with MobileMe & this works fine, it's just the iPhone data will not transfer to MobileMe.
Please help!!Since you are syncing your iPhone with your Mac, it should be syncing your contacts and calendars with your Mac as well (and your bookmarks if you have it set up to sync). You should have Mobile Me setup on your Mac to at least sync your Calendars and Contacts, which should be updating your Mobile Me account. If you want to check to make sure that all of your contacts that are on your iPhone are on your Mac, simply open up the Contacts App. Once you check this, add your Mobile Me account to your iPhone and let it sync your contacts and calendars, it will delete all the contacts and calendars that are currently on your iPhone, but the same data is on your Mac anyways. Once Mobile Me syncs with your iPhone you won't have to worry about it anymore.
If you are having problems where you already setup your Mobile Me account on your iPhone and it's not syncing properly, deleted it, restart your iPhone, then add it again.
Does this help? -
I set up my iCloud account on iPad with an exchange account and aol account. I can see exchange and aol emails but not those from .me account or apple email. I got it to show all 3 accounts on my iPhone with no problem. Hat am I missing?
I'm having a similar problem, but I do have the key and is not working anyway.
My old pc was running on windows 7 and my new one is an apple running on Lion.
My phone is an Iphone IV and I can see all the bookmarks there.
In order to sync, what I did was click on the "I don't have the device with me", I entered the key that was provided and the process finish ok. It says congratulations, etc, etc.
But the bookmarks are not there, I tried merging data and replacing data on this computer options but is the same.
Any suggestions? -
I was updating my software on my iphone 4 and it crashed so it recovered it and i restored it from its back up. However I have lost all my music and my apps but not my pictures. How can i get my music back. I did not remove my phone from the computer until it had said it had finsihed.
Media and apps are not part of the backup. They need to be re-synced from your itunes library or re-downloaded from the store.

I just got a Touch 32GB yesterday and ran into the same problem. I have two PCs in the house that I can sync my iPods on, but I normally use one that DOESN'T have an internet connection, so that the one that does is free for others to use ... a great argument and tension solution, btw.
Anyway, I hooked up the older "iTunes" PC to the net for a first-time sync with the Touch, and ran into this problem. First it kept detecting the Touch as an unidentified iPhone, then I couldn't sync my classic either. Then I found a post here about how when multiple USB ports running off same USB controller seem to screw with the Touch/iPhone syncing.
So I disconnected all but 2 of my USB 2.0 slots (the Touch & the Portable HD with my iTunes Library) and now it's working perfectly. I don't know if this will solve your problem, but it might be worth a try. -
When I receive appointments by email and accept them they go into the enourage "on my mac" ical calendar which is not synced with mobileme. How do I change where appointments are put ?
Or how can I choose where the appointment is put ?
I use the mobileme sync services so the ical calendars that are synced are those in the "[email protected]" group.
Please help !
NickActually you can't drag the appointment to ano calendar - its says "You can’t make changes to this invitation., Only the organiser can change this event"
Also if you double click on the received appointment and open the window the only calendars shown that you can select are the 'on my mac" ones, and not the sync'd ones.
Any ideas welcome !!

My ipod touch (model A1213) is not syncing properly. I have updated the software to the latest (2.2.1) and have even resored it. Itunes says it is working and updated but will not sync and apps. Error message says that app will not sync because a newer version needed.
2.2.1 is not the latest available for any ipod touch.
Is yours the original ipod touch?
If so then:

I just bought a new laptop and my ipod nano will not stay connected to my computer. When I first connect the ipod it starts to sync on my ipod but not on itunes. The ipod is initially connected to my computer, I can see it when I look on devices in my computer. However, when it finishes syncing it is no longer detected to my computer. I cannot transfer any of my songs to my new laptop because of this. I have tried to reinstall itunes, reset my ipod and use a different port. None of these things worked. Any ideas?

How to use your iPod to move your music to a new computer -
It starts out normal as if it's syncing properly and then reverts back. Stating its complete however half of my music is not synced and it says I have all the space available
I had similar problem. Found an answer and it worked fine. First, connect your 4s to your Mac and iTunes. Go to device, music and deselect Sync Music at very top. Then, go to Summary and Sync the 4s. Note that when finished all your music will be gone off the 4s. disconnect the iPhone from the computer and do a Hard Shutdown or reboot/reset. You do this by:
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.
Reconnect to the computer and iTunes. Go to device, music, and check Sync Music. Then select Sync on the summary page. When finished all my songs and playlists were back on the iPhone the way they should be. Good luck. -
I upgraded to ios6.1.3 on ipod touch and after I completed a sync on my PC but I suppose it did not sync, because now it will not restore from a back up and wants to restore from another account that I have saved. Can I some how restore the apps to avoid having to pay for them again and having to recreate settings?
As I said, the backup that iTunes makes does not include apps (and music) if those items where not in the iTunes library on the computer on which you restored they will not be on the iPod.
You can redownload iTunes purchases by:

iphone 6+ somehow has switched my name on emails into my nephew's name. We share a first and last name but not a middle name. For example, my name might be John George Doe and his name John James Doe. How did this happen? How do I correct it.
So if the solution recommended by Ralph is not working then the other option is this:
Please make sure that the emails work correctly when signed into, on a computer
Then delete the account off your phone - you will not lose the emails
Reset the phone
Re add the account back in and see if that helps the issue

My iPhone calender sync to my iPhad but not the oposite
Use this to backup your contacts,
https://itunes.apple.com/gr/app/my-contacts-backup/id446784593?mt=8
Then you will be safe to sync with Outlook. Remember that: Don't sync your iPhone contacts with an empty Outlook address book. If your Outlook address book is empty create a fake contact before you sync. -
