Notes sync iPhone - mac?

Simple question : How do I get the Notes in Mail.app on my mac to sync with the Notes app on iPhone?

Unlike all other PDA's you cannot sync notes between iPhone and your computer without third party software. This is a glaring omission for such great device. I hope Apple will eventually realize this and provide a software upgrade. I suggest you send feedback to:

  • Sent mail folder not syncing iPhone/Mac

    Hello,
    I have the problem, that my Email account (icloud IMAP) is not syncing the sent folder. I can only see sent emails on my iPhone that I actually sent with my iPhone. The same on my Mac. All settings seem to be just fine and everything else works pretty well.
    Any ideas?

  • Selected iTunes Playlists Do Not Sync from Mac to iPhone

    I've seen similar postings lately but no responses. I've recently updated iTunes by removing duplicate playlists that inexplicably appeared after buying iTunes Match. Had many problems syncing playlists with Match turned on, so I've shut that off in both iTunes and on my iPhone 5s. Repeated a number of steps that got my playlists on other devices (mini and Air) but to no avail. Anyone with a similar issue if you've found a workaround/solution I'd appreciate it.
    Thanks,

    First check that all your settings are correct, that contact syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
    Make sure the contacts you are adding are added to your 'iCloud' group and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud group (you can do this by checking in groups), non iCloud contacts will not sync.
    If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your contacts are in the iCloud group, you might try unchecking contact syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling contact syncing.

  • Directions do not sync from Mac to iPhone

    I am trying to get the "send to iphone" feature working with Apple Maps on the Mac.
    MacBook Pro - Mavericks OS
    iPhone 5 - iOS 7
    1. Open maps on Mac.
    2. Request my directions.
    3. Click the Share button.
    4. Select my iphone from the list.
    5. See the Animations.
    6. Never get the notifications in iOS Maps on my phone.
    All the other iCloud functions work like, shared tabs, notes, calendar, email and keychain.  Just not push of my driving directions.
    Any Ideas?

  • Events created on iphone over a week into the future do not sync with mac

    Hello,
    I have the following problem: whenever I create an event on iCal on the iPhone (2.2.1 3G), this newly created event sync backs fine to iCal on my mac (macbook running 10.5.6), as long as it occurs within 7 days into the future. Any events that lie more than 7 days into the future will not sync back from my iphone to the mac.
    Example: today is 3/3. Any events create on the phone for 3/3, 3/4 ... 3/9 WILL sync back to ical on my mac. Events for 3/12 do NOT sync. Events for 3/10 8am did sync, but 11pm did not. Forget about your dental appt 6 months from now. As if there is some arbitrary "7 day in the future" cutoff.
    I called phone support, thinking there may be a hidden setting or so that I overlooked, and that was utterly useless. The Apple rep suggested to look in the app store for an application that might fix this. "Besides", he said, "nobody creates events more than 7 days in the future". ***?
    Looks like a bug to me, but maybe I overlooked something.
    Can anybody confirm this behavior?
    Is there any setting that I can try?
    Any procedure that I should try?
    ny other suggestions?
    Thanks much!

    Before i began syncing calendar events over the air with my MobileMe/former .Mac account, I synced contact info direct with iCal on my Mac via the iTunes sync process. I had no problem syncing events created more than 7 days in the future with the direct sync with iCal on my Mac, and I don't have this problem syncing calendar events over the air with my MM account.
    I believe there is a setting under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences for syncing calendar events. I no longer have this available for my iPhone sync preferences since I'm syncing calendar events over the air with my MM account. I know the setting includes an option for syncing events in the past, but I don't recall if it included an option for syncing events in the future. There should be a setting for syncing all events. Is this selected?
    There is also a setting on the iPhone for syncing all events, or events 2 weeks back, or 3 months back, but nothing for limiting syncing events in the future such as limiting this within the next 7 days.

  • Pages documents created on iPhone will not sync to Mac

    When I create a document using Pages on either my iPhone or iPad, it will not sync with Pages on my Mac.  However, if I create a document on my Mac and save it to iCloud it will show up on both the iPhone and iPad.
    Please advise.

    The calendar that you are adding events to must be in the "iCloud" section of the Calendars app, not in something like "On my iPhone".  Could this be the problem?
    Otherwise be sure both mac and device are connected to the same icloud account.  Check Settings>icloud and System Preferences>icloud, and be sure both those pages have Calendars turned on.
    If these don't solve things, then to test whether it's the iphone or mac that's the problem, using the mac's safari, log into icloud.com with your account ID and look at the Calendars page.  If the events are not listed, then the iphone is not set correctly.  If they are there, then the mac is not set correctly.

  • ICloud contacts on iPhone and Gmail not syncing to Mac

    A friend has an iPhone 5 (iOS 7.1) and a Mac Book Pro (OSX Lion). He wanted the contacts from his Gmail account to appear on his iPhone. This was easy enough - I just added his Gmail account to his iPhone under Mail, Contacts Calendars.
    The problem - we want all of these contacts to sync with his Mac. Both if the iPhone and Mac have iCloud enabled with the same account. Accounts are set to sync. However, the only contacts appearing on him Mac are the ones that were already there. It's not syncing all accounts from his iPhone.
    Any suggestions?

    iCloud won't sync Gmail contacts, it will only sync iCloud contacts.  If he wants to use Gmail for contacts, he should add his Gmail account to his Mac too.  If all of the contacts on his phone are not appearing on his Mac after doing this, then some of them must not belong to the Gmail account and would need to be added to his Gmail contacts.
    If he wants to use iCloud to sync his Gmail contacts instead, he can copy all of his contacts to iCloud as follows:
    Go to Settings>iCloud on the phone, turn Contacts to Off, choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (any iCloud contacts will still be in iCloud).
    Download the app My Contacts Backup.  (If you have more than 500 contacts to transfer you will need the “Pro” version.)  Use the app to back up the remaining contacts on your phone (from Gmail and any other non-iCloud accounts) as a vCard attachment to an email that you send to yourself.  Confirm that you have received the email.
    Go to Settings>iCloud and turn Contacts back to On.
    Go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Account (in the Contacts section) and set this to iCloud.
    Go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars…tap Gmail and any other non-iCloud accounts and turn off contacts syncing with these accounts (otherwise you will see duplicate contacts on your device).
    Open the My Contacts Backup email and tap the attachment to import the contacts from the other accounts back to your device, and to iCloud.

  • Playlists are not syncing between Mac and iPhone

  • Safari bookmarks not syncing to Mac via iCloud - Syncing works between iPhone and iPad.

    My iPhone and iPad both have the Safari iCloud option set to 'ON' in my devices settings. My bookmarks sync between my iPad and iPhone correctly but bookmarks do not synce between my Mac and my two devices.
    In iTunes, when I have either my iPad or iPhone connected it says: 'Your bookmarks are being synced over the air from iCloud.'
    What setting am I missing to get my bookmarks to sync properly from and too my Mac?

    Go to the Apple menu >> system preferences >> icloud.  Make sure you're logged in with the same apple ID as you are on the other two devices.  If you're already signed in, you can click on Account details to verify that.
    Then, make sure you have safari checked off in the icloud preferences.  If you already do, uncheck them for a minute or so.  Then recheck them.
    See if that helps.

  • Address book not syncing from mac to iphone

    Even though at one time my Macbook Pro was syncing fine with iphone. Now there seems to be a problem with no changes being made.

    This user tip might help you understand how accounts work with Address Book.
    First check that all your settings are correct, that contact syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
    Make sure the contacts you are adding are added to your 'iCloud' group and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud group (you can do this by checking in groups), non iCloud contacts will not sync.
    If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your contacts are in the iCloud group, you might try unchecking contact syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling contact syncing.

  • Not purchased PDFs not syncing from mac ibooks to iPhone ibboks

    Hi,
    I have Macbook Air with Recently updated mavericks OSX. I have lots of PDF files on my mac (usually e-tickets of airlines) which i drag and drop to ibooks for mac. Now they are not syncing to ibooks for my iphone 5, iOS 7.0.3. The ibooks icloud syncing is ON for both the devices but i am not able to sync such PDFs to and from from and to mac and iphone. Please help.
    Regards,
    Vikas

    I tried that. It does not work for me. I get a few books to appear from iTunes into iBooks. Getting them into iBooks on the Mac has never been the problem There are lots of way to do that. The problem is, they STILL not not sync with my iPad. And now they are gone from iTunes so i am not sure what is going to happen the next time I try to sync the iPad with iTunes. Luckily I have a Time Capsule backup so I can restore if I have to.
    I guess the bottom line, based on several other threads, is the only solution is to kill iBooks, move it to an obscure corner of your Launch Pad (since you can't totally delete it) and go buy an third party app that will work. Apple has release several updates to Mavericks, and so far there is nothing on the horizon about restoring any of the sync ability that Mavericks took away - iTunes sync wirelessly with the iPad and iPhone, or, like here, iBooks syncing across Apple platforms.

  • Cloud not syncing with mac, iPhone or iPad

    My caldendar is not syncing with my Mac, MBP, iPhone or iPad. When I go to the cloud there are a large number of appointments that do not show up. I am having to use the calendar of my Mac or MBP. If I enter appointments in the cloud dupes show up on my other calendars. This has been going on for a long time. It seems every time there is an IOS update the cloud gets out of sync with all my devices.
