Numbers not synching across devices

I continue to run into a synch problem with Numbers. I have a spreadsheet that I update regularly, but when I open it, it regularly shows more than one spreadsheet and says they are out of synchronization and I need to pick one. the latest message was similar, but showed spreadsheet options for sheets last updated over one month ago. I have regularly updated the sheet almost every day.
devices are ipad and iphone 6plus with current software (8.1.2)
thanks in advance

Howdy Jpgolf16,
I understand you have an iCloud Numbers document that is not staying in sync between your iPad and iPhone. You also are presented with various versions of the same spreadsheet, some of them old.
There are a couple sections in this article you may want to explore.
iCloud: Troubleshooting Documents in the Cloud - Apple Support
Specifically the sections:
Documents on iCloud.com are not updated when changes are made on my iOS device or Mac
and
Documents opened on my iOS device or Mac display a "Resolve Conflict" message

Photos will not sync across devices in iOS 8.1

I have iOS 8.1.1 on both my iPad and my iPhone 5. After installing the new iOS and selecting 'iCloud Photo Library (Beta)' on both devices, the 'my photo stream' folder has disappeared and photos will not sync across devices. Everything was fine prior to installing the new iOS. Can anyone help me to fix this? Thank you!

Hi sueb21,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
If you are using iCloud Photo Library Beta there are some differences from what you may be use to. Please read over the attached article for information on how your pictures are now organized and for how you can turn it off if you choose to do so.
iCloud Photo Library beta FAQ - Apple Support
What happened to the My Photo Stream and Camera Roll albums?
The Camera Roll and My Photo Stream album are replaced with an All Photos album, which gives you the same compact scroll view, now with all your photos and videos organized by the date they were added. Learn more about finding photos in iOS 8.
After you enable iCloud Photo Library, all your original photos and videos are organized in one library. My Photo Stream will upload recent photos to share with your other devices, but iCloud Photo Library stores your originals. See how to upload originals below.
Have a great day,
Joe

IPhone calendar event issue- not synching across iCloud

Events created on my iPhone will not sync across iCloud to display on my Calendar App on my iPad or on my laptop.
iPhone 5 iOS 8.1.3 - this started yesterday with no changes having been made to any of my iCloud settings. On my laptop I get a new icon displays in my doc - see attached image, but when I click on it it just goes away and the new event is not synched. If I don't click on this icon, it eventually disappears and the event is also not added to my calendar.
I Can create events on my iPad and laptop and have them show on my phone. I can create Notes on my iPhone and they sync across devices.
I have tried changed the iPhone calendarsync settings from 'Events 1 Month Back' to 'All Events' and vice versa. On the iPhone I have turned Off synching of calendars, waited and re-enabled synching. I have cycled power to my iPhone.

Thanks Sterling - I've read through both those articles and performed all the troubleshooting steps in the iCloud: Troubleshooting iCloud Calendar - Apple Support article. I have verified bluetooth is on, I'm on the same wireless network, same iCloud account signed into on all devices, etc.
Still new events entered on my iPhone do not get added to my laptop or iPad calendar. The handoff icon shows in my doc, but it does not put the new event onto the calendar.
Through some more testing, I have also found the same issue with reminders; if I create one on my iPhone it will not be displayed on my laptop or iPad.
Again I have no problems creating these on my laptop or iPad and having them show on All my devices, including my iPhone. And another family member can create them on their iPhone 6, iOS 8.1.3 and they come across to all my devices; laptop, iPad and my iPhone5.
Please advise what else I can do, as not being able to create events or reminders on my iPhone and have them sync across devices is a problem.

Numbers not synching with iCloud

Dear Apple
Numbers on my iOS devices and my iMac do not synch with iCloud. I have been struggling with this issue for 2 months. When oh when will Apple fix this.
My decides:
iMax iMac (21.5-inch, Mid 2010) running OS X Yosemite 10.10.1(14B25)
iPad series 2 running iOS 8.1.1
iPhone 6 plus running iOS 8.1.1
Help please as the only way i can work is to use my iPhone only at present.

Dear Apple
Do I really think you read the message above...well no I don't think you have the time. However, the problem seems now to be fix. Last evening the iMac and iPhone started to be in sych and I fully tested changes in both directions. At that time the iPad was still not synched. This morning the set of files that the iPad was looking at seemed to be more up to date. I then started my iMac and ran the iTunes synch again for the iPad and iPhone. Magically all devices are now in synch. No time to test that changes from the iPad now but I believe all will now be well. How odd!

Bridge Calendar not synching with device - missing entries

Since the upgrade to OS 2 I have noticed that the calendar does not synch properly. There are entries on the device (and outlook) that don't appear at all in the bridge calendar. What is more strange is that sometimes some of them do...but when the page refreshes (say from waking from sleep) they have disappeared again!
I have updated bridge on both the device (Bold 9780) and the playbook, but no difference.
All the various calendar entries (desktop, gmail etc.) are properly checked off in the device bridge options list.
Starting this as a new thread as I see a number of others have raised the same question some time ago but without resolution...so here's hoping!
Seriously, any help would be much appreciated. It's a pain not being able to rely 100% that the info in the playbook calendar is correct.

Hi Aandras.
I do have multiple calendars, but turning them off and just having the desktop doesn't seem to help.
I did download the bridge update.
Funny thing is that events appear in different views. For example I have an all day event for Friday that appears in the daily view but not the weekly. Also, the event seems to be there but invisible. I had an event from 1500 to 1800 on Thursday, visible on my BB but not on the PB. I then created a new appointment at 1700 on the PB. The PB reports a conflict with a previous appointment...which is not visible!
Let me see what happens next week!

"Sent" and "Trash" mailboxes not syncing across devices

My "In Box" syncs across devices, but the "Sent" and "Trash" boxes do not. How do I ensure that all my mailboxes are syncing across all my devices, so that conversations can move back and forth regardless of which device I am using at the moment?

Hello Mr Majik.
The following Knowledge Base article provides some great recommendations for working with your issue:

ICloud Bookmarks not synching across IOS .

I can't seem to get my Bookmarks to synch across two IOS devices... IPad 2 and IPhone 3GS both running IOS 5... Both are connected to iCloud and have performed several successful backups... Bookmarks is selected to ON for both devices... I can't seem to get the two devices to synch up... Any suggestions?
Regards,
Scott

On the iMac, open System Preferences > iCloud
Deselect the box next to Safari then reselect it.
Give iCloud a few minutes to re sync the data.
If that didn't help, on the iO S devices, tap Settings > iCloud
Switch Safari off then back on.

Collections do not sync across devices - bookmarks do ???

Hello. I am trying to sync my books & PDF's between my iPhone 4S & iPad2. Both are running iOS 5.0.1 and all apps are up to date. Both have "sync bookmarks", "sync collections", & "online audio & vidoe" checked. I am using iCloud and both devices are backed up nightly....
I have manually pulled books and PDF's to each device; what is strange is that when I bookmark on one devicee (say the iPhone), the bookmark is recognized almost instantly on the other device (iPad).... BUT, when I add a book or pdf to one device, it doesn't automatically sync to the other device.....??

Let me revise my last post - Books purchased in the library DO sync across devices; items I place in iBooks from email, etc.. do NOT sync.

Bookmarks Not Synching Between Devices

My iPad and iPhone are not synching bookmarks. In fact, there were two bookmarks on a novel in my iPhone, and one on my iPad. Today when I looked both to see if they synchronized, I was greeted with only one on my iPhne and none on my iPad. I'm the only one who has access to these devices and I didn't delete them.
So far this doesn't seem to work at all the way Apple advertises ... For now I have to forgo reading the same book on my iPhone and iPad, otherwise I will never know where I left off. Most frustrating. Anybody have a solution to this problem?

Hi,
Find your Chax.dmg item and run the Installer and chose the Uninstall Option
(You may need to download it again if you did not keep the .dmg)
Once you have done this go to the Finder > Go Menu and hold the ALT key down and select Library
Open Preferences
Find com.apple.ichat.plist (this will keep a record that it needs to display the Chax Preference Pane icon and the Preferences)
Drag the .plist to the Trash and restart Messages (Yes Messages still uses that .plist).
This should remove the messages about Chax needing to start.
It should not have effected the ability to sync though.

Why is photo stream not synching across multiple devices?

I am using an iPad, iMac, iPhone and MacBook Pro - all with Photo Stream enabled on the same account - yet the photos in my individual photo streams are no identical across all. There are a handful of photos that in the stream that I can find on all of my devices, but at the same time, each device also has a number (sometimes quite a few) that are only on that particular device, despite it appearing on that device's photo stream. How can I sync them so that they all have the same photos? I thought that was the purpose of photo stream...

Photostream is streaming, not syncing service. So every device that you have will have photos from the time that photostream was enabled on that device. As long as photostream folder exists in your iphoto, you can force pictures into it. Just move or copy those pictures in photostream folder in iphoto on your Macs. They will get moved into icloud and downloaded to other devices. Remember that photostream is not designed to hold your pictures forever, just 30 days or 1000 pictures. Once 30 days is over it still stays on your computers, but is not in the cloud anymore.

Calendar not updating across devices

My calendar isn't updating across different devices using iCloud. It appears that all settings are correct and I'm using the same account on each device. Photos update just fine.

First check that all your settings are correct, that calendar syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
Make sure the calendars you are using are in your 'iCloud' account and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud account (you can do this by clicking/tapping the calendar button in the top left corner of the application ), non iCloud calendars will not sync.
If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your calendars are in the iCloud account, you might try unchecking calendar syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling calendar syncing settings.

ICloud Mail not syncing across devices

This issue has been bugging me for many months now and I have not been able to find a solution: I am an iCloud user for email etc, iPhone 4s with iOS7.0 and MBP with OSX10.8.5 and Mail 6.6. There are actually 2 issues which I would like help in resolving:
1. If I happen to notice a new email received on my iPhone and open up that new message using the iPhone, it then does not get downloaded by Mail on my MBP. If however I choose to ignore a new message in my iPhone's inbox and wait until I get home to read it using my MBP, then Mail downloads the unopened message and I can choose to read it using either the iPhone or MBP. However, new mail downloaded on my MBP and which I then open using Mail is also downloaded on my iPhone and marked as read.
2. Sent Mail is not sync'd across the two devices. I can get around this by bcc'ing myself on all sent messages.
I use IMAP and have tried some recommendations I have found on some help sites but to no avail.
Thank you

Unfortunately, iCloud only pushes new mail. In iOS, it has never pushed the updated status of mail read, moved or flagged on other devices. http://support.apple.com/en-ca/HT203545
You could try switching your iCloud mail to fetch instead of push. I've never tried this, but maybe it will fetch the read status, as per the fetch schedule.

Messages not synching between devices

I've currently installed Messages beta, and I thought I would be able to sync the conversations between my computers and my iphone. However, nothing is synching. I'm running 10.7.3 and I previoulsly installed Chax. Even thought Chax is not supported for Lion, I keep getting a notice about ChaxHelperApplications trying to send scripts to iChat whenever I open the app. Should I be able to sync the conversations between devices? Is it possible that the Chax scripts are taking away this feature? Any help is greatly appreciated.

ICloud Numbers version conflict across devices

Hi - I updated a spreadsheet in numbers for iPhone. Now when I open Numbers on iPad, iMac or even the iPhone - the updated document is gone, I can only access the much older version. How can I find the latest version? Any suggestions? I've gone into the 'Revert to' and browsed through old versions on my mac, but it's not there.

UPDATE:
After calling Tech Support and running a bunch of iCal event creation/edit/deletion tests from all devices, realized that problem is limited to old events that existed in iCal on my MacBook prior to installation of Lion. Tech Support unable to solve problem, but workaround is to delete old events from all sources and create new events.

TS3988 iCloud not syncing across devices?

My devices are not syncing in iCloud.
E-mails can be received but not deleted - I have to delete from each device separately.
Fiona

iCloud does not sync emails. You are interacting directly with your email on the server, so whatever actions you take on one device/computer are actually performed on the server, so are also seen on every other device/computer that connects to the same account on the same server.
Just to confirm, you are referring to emails sent to your @icloud.com (or @me.com / @mac.com) email address, arent you? Not any other external email account?
