One Way Sync between Droid 4 and desktop

My new Droid 4 syncs between my desktop and phone but not the other way. How do I unlock the secret?

I've been struggling with some sync going only one way and other sync not working at all for 3 days.... this is REALLY frustrating.... my IT tech support guys tell me that I have to talk with Verizon tech, because they say it's not an Exchange Server issue.....

Inconsistent/one-way sync between new iPhone and MS Exchange

So this is weird. When I use my work PC and add a calendar item in MS Office, the exchange server (which is synced to my iPhone) sends the calendar item to my phone. But when I add a calendar item on my phone, it does not appear in my PC laptop's Office calendar. Although, sometimes when I enter something in the iphone and I'm sitting right next to my computer (and on wifi instead of 3G in the last case), it does occassional sync both ways. Can anyone possibly help with this?

Sounds like some kind of server confusion over which device is considered 'authoritative'.
A few syncs later does the iPhone and the server end up 'losing' those appointments, or do they stay on both devices but just never turn up on your iteration of Outlook?

Two-way or only one-way syncing between G4 and mobile??

I have a Sony Ericcsson k750i mobile. When I first got it, I went through my Address Book (on my powerbook) and sorted it all out and synced with the phone (so all the numbers in the Address Book transfered to the phone). No problem. But now, if I sync, with isync, any numbers / names I have saved in the phonebook of the phone (say, I meet someone new when I'm out and take their number, put it directly in my phone) are erased. The sync, therefore, is ONE WAY, from the powerbook to the phone. Any new entries on the phone are scrapped.
Is there a way to avoid this happening? I looked in isync but I don't find. It's a pretty stupid system if you can't have a two-way street when you're syncing.
Any ideas much appreciated

How? Does isync say something like, "There are contacts / numbers on your phone which are not in your Address Book. Do you want to copy them there?" to which you would reply Yes?
How do you do it?

One way sync of Bookmarks to Desktop

I have turned off syncing between my laptop and desktop because it was not working and would like to turn it back on again.
Currently the correct version of bookmarks exists on my laptop.
Is there a good way to get the desktop to be updated with the laptop's bookmarks?
I would like to be syncing via MobileMe in the future.
Thanks.

god. thanks. needed to do that for a long time.
can I please also ask you if you have any experience with the dock sync? this seems to have cleaned my bookmarks up nicely but the dock sync does not seem to be cleaned up and I have taken it off and am doing this manually. do you know how this is supposed to work (perhaps i am misunderstanding)?
for instance, how does this tool know /which/ order to put the dock icons in - if for instance there are three icons that are the same on both docks but they are in different orders. does it just pick one?
say there is software installed on one computer that is not on another and one has a dock icon for this software. i assume it just skips this. but what if the software is on both computers but only one has a dock icon for it. is it supposed to add the icon in the case where there is not one?
lastly (I assume unrelated but perhaps not) - have you ever had dock icons move around on their own while you were trying to relocate them? say for instance if I was dragging the utility icon to the left hand side of the dock and put it where I wanted it and then - whoo-oop - it slipped all the way back down to the right hand side somewhere...
Thanks a ton.

2 way sync between AddressBook and LDAP

Hi there. I'm looking for something that will help me do a 2-way sync between an Addressbook and an LDAP server. I've been playing with ABxLDAP/Addressbook4LDAP, and that seems to populate addressbook contacts into an LDAP server (a unidirectional sync). However, I want to do a full 2-way sync (changes made in the ldap server are synced to my local addressbook entries and vice versa).
Does anyone know of any apps to do that?
Thanks.

Thanks for the info.
I've only seen info about Snow Leopard syncing (and it doesn't really specify 2 way) to Exchange (which is not LDAP)
Addressbookserver (www.addressbookserver.com) is also not LDAP.
I really need this to work (2 way sync) with an LDAP server.
Thanks.

Mac One-Way Sync

Is it possible to do a one-way sync between my BB Tour and Mac iCal? How? Thanks.

Hello jjlangdon,
Yes, you can do a one way sync from your Mac to overwrite your BlackBerry data.
In the BlackBerry Desktop Manager, under the Calendar settings you will see an "Advanced Settings" at the bottom. When you expand this section, you can chose the date range of appointments to sync as well as there is a box to check off to say "Replace all calendar events on this BlackBerry device."

How does one do a two way contacts sync between an iphone and outlook? Most of the community has answered as this to be "always so", but it does not work! Changes made on outlook get done in my iPhone, but it does not work the other way around!

Set up home sharing between macbook pro and desktop pc. tried to sync music in library but ipod is not syncing the library. why not?

I set up homesharing between macbook pro and desktop pc. I have attempted to sync songs on my mac and pc, but the ipod will not sync the full library. why not?

Hey harold WD!
You will want to consolidate your entire library onto one computer using Home Sharing in order to sync all of these items onto your iPod. Use the following article to help you accomplish this:

We are deloying IPhone 4s models in our organization and I am trying to setup a one way sync from Google to IPhone? Help

We are deploying IPhone model 4s in our organization and we want to have a Global addressbook. I have setup with Google using Gmail and accessing the contacts however this provides a two-way sync. I need the setup to be a one-way sync from Google to IPhone only!
HELP

I use the same id and password as I want them all in the same place. I have tried other solutions offered here like turning off contact, saving to the phone and turning them back on and merging. still no contacts go to icloud.

HT1535 How do I do a one-way sync from computer to I-pad? Outlook Contacts only. It has already been synced and there is bad info on I-pad that I don't want on my computer.

How do I do a one way sync from contacts in computer (Outlook), to contacts on I pad (also for I-phone)? Contacts on I-Pad are incorrect and I do not want to add them back to my computer?
Alternatively, is there any way to delete contact groups all at once instead of one contact at a time?
Thank you in advance...

1. Create a new Profile.

HT204053 I have set up i cloud but my calendars wont sync between MacBook, Ipad and iPhone. Is there a refresh style option or does anyone know what to do to make sure the calendar on my MacBook is the one that the other devices reads. Thanks everyone.

Don't spend a lot of time trying to change it. It's an iCloud problem that's happened before, and when it happened in August it went back to the correct colors in a few days. Just be careful when you add new items to the calendar to use the right calendar (even if the color is wrong), otherwise you'll have things out of synch when the correct colors come back.

My Notes no longer sync between my mac and iPhone. I have tried everything.

My notes used to sync between my phone and my mac until a week and a half ago when it all of a sudden stopped. I have done absolutely everything that I have seen given as rememdies to this and nothing is working. I am thinking it is an issue with the phone, not the laptop. What now?

I have gone to setting and tried to unmark and remark Notes within iCloud and within gmail and any other accounts I can. I have tried relogging in to all accounts that have Notes marked on both the phone and the computer. I have tried resetting the network connection. I have tried moving the notes on the computer from one account to another to see if that changes anything. I have tried plugging the phone into the laptop and resolving things that way.
I normally have synced through iCloud and also through gmail. My iCloud storage is nearly full but I didn't think that that would be one of the effecting factors?
I am all out of ideas. It just stopped all of a sudden?

One way sync from Outlook Express gets Unable to read application data error

I have a BB Flip, 8220, and am trying to use Outlook Express as my Contacts organizer. I have started Outlook express "vanilla" and only have one records in Outlook Express. I have 34 records in my BB Contacts. When I run synchronize (and again, I am trying to do this one way, from Express to BB) I get the error "Unable to read application data", "Processing Device Address Book", "Record 34 of 34 Records".
I have read many of the threads. I have checked the RIM.log file and it says one way sync. Any clues on how to fix this? I am on Desktop 4.6, do I need to upgrade to 4.7?
Please advise.
Thank you.
Solved!

Well I fixed the problem. What I did was run a Backup using the desktop mgr software, I then ran a restore, but I used the Advanced option so that I could open the ipd backup file and then select just the contacts database and push that from my computer to the device (using the right arrow copy button in the middle of the Advanced window thingy). I then reran the Sync and it WORKED!
Doing the backup and restore must have fixed the corrupted record on my phone. Wonderful. I was nervous, but it worked jst fine.

One Way Sync - OCS to PDA only

Was wondering how I can accomplish one way sync to "PDA only" so that users cannot overwrite calendar on server.

(1) Setting the replace all existing will wipe out my entire calendar of the phone and replace it with what is in Outlook.
Correct.
(2) By selecting "syncing" calendar events, will sync the events between Outlook and the iPhone.
Correct.
What happens about the events I have placed onto the phone (after that initial sync)? Won't they get synced to Outlook?
Yes, which is the definition of syncing.
I want the sync to always be one-way...only from Outlook to the iPhone.
Not possible. If this is what you want, then don't sync calendar events or only enter calendar events with Outlook.
Contact information, calendar events, and bookmarks (if selected to be synced with the supported applications on your computer) is a bidirectional or true sync process with the supported applications on your computer. There is no setting to transfer calendar events from the iPhone to the supported application on your computer only or vice-versa or to not be synchronized.

One-Way sync from Palm to iBook?

Wiped my address book with a crashed sync, but the data remains on my Palm device (Treo 650). Anyone know how to setup a one-way sync from the Treo back into the iBook? Thanks, M

Welcome to Apple Discussions.
You should first try to correct the problem by dragging the AddressBook.data file out of your Address Book folder at the end of this path:
Macintosh HD:Users:<username>:Library:Application Support:Address Book
Duplicate the AddressBook.data.previous file, and rename it simple AddressBook.data and launch the application to see if it can recover your files.
If not, you should understand that there is no easy, quick, painless way to achieve what you want - moving a copy of your handheld data to your Macintosh.
You can restore synchronization to the Palm Desktop, by moving the Apple conduit out of the active Conduits folder, and by moving the following disabled Palm conduits out of the Disabled Conduits folder and back into the active one:
• Address Conduit
• Calendar Conduit
• Contacts Conduit
• Datebook Conduit
• Tasks Conduit
• ToDo Conduit
(Only one of each conduit pair is used by your Treo 650, but these instructions would also apply to users of the older conduits.)
By setting each conduit to Handheld overwrites Macintosh, you will transfer the data on your smartphone to the Palm Desktop, overwriting any existing records by doing so.
You can then export contact data as a vCard file and calendaring data as a vCal file but, here's a problem: you cannot export task or to do data, so in this process, you will lose all of the to do items in iCal. Once you have exported the Palm Desktop data in vCard and vCal format, you can import the contents of each file into the Address Book and iCal, remembering that your vCal file contains only event—and not to do—data.
You can then return the Palm conduits to the Disabled Conduits folder and the iSync Palm Conduit to the active one, and synchronize once again with iSync, choosing to overwrite the contents of your handheld with the data from the Address Book and iCal. Once again, say goodbye to your to do records. You do this by removing your device from iSync and adding it back prior to the next synchronization, causing the framework to act as if you have never synchronized before. Choose Replace (and not Merge) to avoid data duplication errors.
Do you see why periodically backing up Address Book and iCal data is so important? To do so, just select the Back up Address Book in the Address Book or the Back up Database option in iCal.
