One computer "syncs" with dotMac - all others do not...
"Suddenly" my network of Macs don't seem to pick up any changes made on my main computer's iCal calendar. Also, all of the iCal programs have the "publish" command greyed out on all my Macs.
That might be a red herring as it may be that that is normal?
However, the main issue I'm having at the moment is that any changes I make on my main computer (upstairs, connected via ethernet cable to wds Airport Express if that makes a difference?) are published, then synced, but the other 3-4 other Macs will not change when they are 'synced' - nothing happens. The new entries do not appear.
Any ideas out there?
.Mac generally is trying my patience at the moment!!!!!
Hopeful for any advice - I have already reset .Mac following Apple Support guidelines - made no difference at all.
Cheers
Chris
I'm having a similar problem. I recently updated the system on my main computer (iMac Intel 2.4 dual core) to OSX 10.5.2 from Tiger. When I post changes to my various calendars the changes "seem to" automatically publish - BUT those changes don't show up on my other computers. (Those computers are configured to update automatically, but just in case I refreshed manually - with no luck.) This is a new problem - prior to this I have had no problems with iCal. What's even weirder is that all my computers now seem to have "permission" to update ALL my various calendars - which I didn't know was even possible - and yet any one computer's changes don't show up on the other computers. It's as if the connection between the computers has been lost - even though other shared items continue to work in .Mac (sharing contacts for example). Another program that now misfires is iPhoto. I am now unable to create password protected albums via WebGallery. Final note: only one computer is running 10.5.2 - all others are still running 10.4.11. What a mess!

Yes
iPhone activation is separate from syncing.
Heck, if you play with the settings correctly, you can even sync an iPhone to 2 computers.

How can I import pictures from my iphone to PC which I imported to the iphone from another PC? The folder doesn't show on my computer. I see all other pictures I took with the phone but not the imported folder.
Photos that were synced from a computer won't show for copying to a computer. If you want to copy them back then you will need a third-party app on your phone such as Simple Transfer which can copy them off via your wifi network. But photos are 'optimised' when they are synced to a device, any that you then copy back to a computer may not be exactly the same as they originally were on your computer (e.g. their dimensions might be different and their colours may look a bit different).

How do I get my burned songs on my iPod to a computer other than the one I synced with when I loaded them? I purchased a new computer and want to transfer my library to it. The only sync option I get is to erase the ipod and sync it.
By using a third-party program like one of those discussed here:

can I have two contact lists on one mac book pro? I need one to sync with my iphone, one to sync with my husband's iphone.
I agree with Chris CA that this is the way I would *expect* iTunes to behave.
When I look at iTunes from my account (my music is in ~/Music/iTunes/ and not available to my spouse's account), I can see in my music library all my rips and my purchases, just as I would expect. I can use Store>View My Account (<myAppleID>) and all is as expected. Home sharing is NOT on.
Doing the same from the other account is not much different, actually. Nothing in the library yet, of course. Store>View My Account (<herAppleID>) also works. I CAN authorize my computer to play her music. I CAN view her iTunes purchases. When I attempt to download the purchases to HER library, though, I get the following dialog box:
Now I interpret this to mean that this computer (mine) will not download from a different AppleID (also mine) for 90 days. Is that [interpretation] correct? -

wow ... I get a headache just trying to read what you just said. I went and read how to migrate my library and found that you can only migrate purchased media.
No, you can easily migrate your entire library from one working compter to another.
If you fail to backup or migrate your library and find yourself with nothing but a new empty computer and a device full of content iTunes is designed to only recover the iTunes purchased content, however third party tools can help recover everything if needed.

Since syncing with iCloud all my photos in my photo app are much lower resolution than they were before. Can anyone explain what happened an how I might get back my high resolution photos?
Thanks again.
Unfortunately I don't have iPhoto (running Windows).
I did, however, figure out a work-around.
I created an empty directory on my computer, and told iTunes to "Sync Photos from..." that empty directory. This deleted all the photos from the iPod (go figure).
I then set the "Sync Photos from..." dropdown back to directory that actually contained all my photos, and sync'd again.
And, yes, they all loaded onto the iPod at their better, higher resolution.
Thanks for all your help. Photos (and wallpaper) are perfect, again -
Last time I synced with iTunes all apps (except the originals) and all the work I'd put in them got erased. Any way to stop that?
Your apps didn't get erased. They're still there in your iTunes Library, you just didn't tell iTunes to sync all Apps when you synced. You have to either choose the specific apps you want to sync or say sync all apps.

2 photo streams on my iphone 4s in albums - I just want one to sync with iCloud
I have 2 photo streams on my iphone 4s - I just want one to sync with iCloud.
When I go into my Albums 2 show up as Photo Stream under my Camera Roll and even using edit I can't delete the blank one.
I just want one that syncs photos I take to the iCloud and to delete the other.
Help please - its a 4GS version 5.01.Photo stream only maintains photos in photo stream for 30 days, although they will remain on your devices until deleted. Chances are only 56 of your photos were added within the last 30 days. At this point, the best course of action is either to copy the remaining photos in a new album in iPhoto, then sync them to your phone by selecting the album on the Photos tab of your iTunes sync settings and syncing. An alternative is to copy them to a folder, then use an app like PhotoSync to wirelessly transfer photos in the folder to your phone.

Hi all
I would like to create a customized button as a master so that if I change the look of the master all other buttons will change too.
I have done this with a custom control as a "strict type def" otherwise the look will not change BUT If I do this as a strict type def I cannot change the Boolean text anymore which should be different on every button.
How can I create a master control of a button where the look will be applied to all others but not the Boolean text?
Stay Hungry, Stay Foolish
Solved!

I don't think you can do that. I just looked and as I suspected the Boolean text property is read only for strict typedefs so you cannot use property nodes to change the text.
As a workaround just make it a typedef. When you want to change the look open the typedef and make it strict, make your changes, then make it non strict again. You will have to update the Boolean text again for all instances. Kind of a pain. Maybe this is something for the idea exchange.
Kudos for being sneaky.
I like these creative work-arounds!

Help, my 4s calender syncs with gmail. the ical does not show any appointments anymore.
It use to. How can I get my appointments to show up on my phone?
They show up in gmail, but not on the phone.Is there a fix for so the I phone shows the dates I make on the I phone?
The iphone should show dates when I make them, on the iphone, but it is not showing any appointments made with the iphone on the iphone.
The gmail has the dates, but the I phone does not have it.
I used to be able to see them both, it has been just a week or two. Do I need to relink the calenders?
It is the iphone that does not show the dates, gmail shows them.

Two user accounts on one computer - syncing one library with separate apps
I have just taken the plunge and moved over to a Macbook Pro from Windows. I am really impressed with the computer, but need some help with a particular problem.
My wife has her iPhone and iPad, both of which are synced to one iTunes library on her old computer. I also have my iPod Touch, which had it's own iTunes library on another laptop. We have now replaced these old computers with one Macbook Pro.
To keep all our stuff separate I have set up two accounts on the Macbook Pro and put a copy of all our music into one public folder, so that we can share the music library between our two accounts. I logged into my account and authorised my iPod Touch, which synced with the library and also backed up my apps to the same library. When I attempted to do the same on my wife's iPad through her account iTunes synced OK, but when I tried to sync her apps it came up with a message indicating that if I tick the sync box it will delete all her apps in favour of the apps already in the library? I presume I will come across the same issue with her iPhone - I am not willing to try until I can get to the bottom of the issue.
Is there a way of using the same library, but keeping the apps in separate folders? For some reason the iTunes library has separate folders for individual users to sync video, pics, etc, but the folder for the apps is included in the music folder?
Many thanks in advance for any help!
AndyHi Elvis Zuo,
Thank you for the suggestion, which is the only solution I could think of.
The problem is that this then means we have two separate copies of the iTunes library on our computer. At 25GB per library this will take up lots of hard drive space. I would prefer to try and use the same library between our two accounts/iTunes installs.
Thanks
Andy
