Partial sync only

When I sync my iTouch 2.2 to my iTunes Library, some of the Podcasts don't sync. All My Music syncs, and most Podcasts do, but some Podcasts don't. I subscribe to a number of NPR and BBC Podcasts which update regularly, and I'd like to get the updates when I sync my iTouch, but only some of them update.

No message displayed at all -- they just don't sync. This phenomenon applies to some Podcasts, not all, and it doesn't apply to music, which syncs fine. I look forward to your ideas. Thx, Dave

Partial sync only (gmail) - fixes?

Greetings. I have a curve 9320 Virgin Mobile canada. Added my gmail account to the curve via the curve (appraently cant do it via the rim website any more). Im on Blackberry Internet Service BIS (I'm a consumer I'm on BIS not BES)
Mail is only syncing one way - if delete an email on my curve it deletes from my laptop which is good
But if delete from my laptop the email does NOT delete from my handheld, which obviously makes the curve a paper weight re: managing my email :-)
Seem like I have tried everything ?!? - all gmail settings seems right (eg imap settings), the curve is set to reconcile mailbox and handheld mailbox wins, reconcile deleted items etc.
I have even tried these steps:

but still not working........
Have you guys seen this before this "partial / one way" synch and any suggestions re fixes?
Thanks much appreciated!

Disappears from iTunes but keeps doing partial sync, only on wireless

I have a peculiar situation. I know I've read people's issues with the ATV disppearing from iTunes mid-sync, however my situation might be a bit unique...
I am running iTunes 9 on a fresh install of Windows 7 Ultimate... Windows firewall is disabled, AVG Free is the only anti-virus running. (no port blocking software or anything) I also did a factory restore on my ATV, and re-updated to the latest firmware, just before trying this again, with the same results. I have my ATV connected using the basic Linksys WRT54G that everyone has, set for G-only mode. No wireless encryption is being used.
Let's say I am trying to sync 6 full movies to my ATV. It will begin to sync wirelessly, however a few minutes in, the ATV disappears from my iTunes. However, by looking at the lights on my router, I could see there was still a lot of wireless activity going on! It actually finished syncing that first movie after the ATV was gone from iTunes, but then stopped there. I checked on the ATV, and it played the full movie all the way through without iTunes running.
I'm pretty confident this isn't a wireless network problem, since the ATV is literally 10 feet from the router, and there aren't any other strong networks in the area interfering (there's one that occasionally shows up at my house with 1 bar of strength, but I have my router set for a different channel from that network). I also routinely use my MacBook and iPhone on the same network all over the house with no connectivity issues.
When I hardwire my ATV with ethernet, it'll complete the full sync with not one problem.
What's going on here? No other device has an issue with my network, and I know others are having similar, but not identical problems syncing wirelessly... any ideas?
Thanks for any help on this!! I'd love to put the ATV in another room where running ethernet isn't much of an option, so my disabled mother can make use of it... so I'd love to get this problem solved.

The iphone is not a backup device.
You need to copy everything from your old computer, or your backup copy of your old computer to your new one.

I made the mistake of resetting my iPod to factory defaults. Now it will only partially sync to my music library. I continually get an error message saying that certain songs are not authorized for my computer. Any ideas?

I made the mistake of resetting my iPod to factory defaults. Now it will only partially sync to my music library. I continually get an error message saying that certain songs are not authorized for my computer, although they are in the iTunes library on the computer and will play. It's these songs that won't transfer to the iPod. I have deauthorized and re-authorized the computer but no joy. Any ideas?

Hello there DesertRat71,
I was thinking that some of the songs in your library may have been purchased under a different apple id. You have already done the first thing I would have done by de authorizing and re authorizing. To verify this, highlight one of the songs that will not sync over and use File>Get Info. Here is the help menu link for it if you need it help://bookmark='https://help.apple.com/itunes/mac/11.0/help/index.html?localePa th=English.lproj#itns2937'
In the Summary section there will be an Apple ID entry. If it shows something different than what you are currently using then I recommend signing into the Apple ID it shows and authorizing the computer for that one as well.
All the best,
Sterling

"Notes" only partially sync'd

Hi. I recently purchased my first Mac - iMac 27" late 2012. At some point during the setup the Notes from my iPhone 4s got partially sync'd to the iMac. There didn't seem to be a pattern, some old, some new, but only about 7 or 8 out of several dozen ended up on the iMac. It looks like a couple of recent Notes are also now on the iMac.
As I sit here testing this, I can create a new note on the iPhone and it will sync to the iMac, and vice versa. This occurs over the wifi or if the iPhone is connected directly. Doesn't matter.
There are some notes dated on the iPhone many months before I purchased the iMac that are displayed on the iMac, and if I edit one of them on the phone or mac the change is sync'd.
There are other notes on the iPhone that even if I edit them they don't sync to the iMac.
iPhone: 7.0.4
iMac: 10.9.1
This isn't a big deal, but one of those things that just bugs me becuase it doesn't seem to be working!
Thanks a lot for the help.
Gary

OK I figured out the category distinction - just a matter of Notes being stored locally on iPhone or on iCloud. Did a lot of Googling and found a lot of discussion about this, but no straight forward method to transfer Notes stored "On My Phone" to iCloud. I tried disabling Notes on both iMac and iPhone and re-enabling, but that doesn't seem to do anything.
This isn't a new issue. I see threads going back several years.
Any suggestions how to get Notes in "On My iPhone" to iCloud?

How to sync only subfolders in a library in SharePoint 2013?

Hi, I have one library in which too many folders and subfolders are created.<o:p></o:p>
I want to sync only 2 subfolder to my PC from SharePoint 2013 site.<o:p></o:p>
Is it possible to sync only subfolder instead sync complete library? <o:p></o:p>

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to sync only subfolders in a library in SharePoint 2013.
Using SkyDrive Pro you can only sync at document library level. You cannot sync complete site or a single folder in a document library.
With SkyDrive Pro Sync Client, there is no possibility to Sync a partial subset of a document library. By design the entire doc library gets synced and we get local copies of all the files and folders under it.
When a User attempts to sync a sub folder within a Library, the sync tool always picks the parent Library as the Sync point and syncs everything under it. Users are forced to sync the document library as a whole.

Partial sync to iPhone

Hi,
The most recent two events in my iPhoto library are only partially syncing to my iPhone. I tried making them into an Album instead but the same thing happens.
14 out of 82 photos and 3 out of 9 photos have synced, but not the others.
Older events have a 100% sync.
There is over 10GB free on the iPhone (32GB), and over 140 GB free on my hard drive.
I have started iPhoto holding Cmd-Opt and selecting the option to rebuild the file permissions with no joy.
Or is it an iTunes problem?

Update: deleting the iPod Photo Cache solved the sync for my iPhone, but iTunes will not sync some events with an iPod Touch.
Should I try to restore the Touch?

How can I sync ONLY the top photo in the stack?

I sync various Aperture photo albums to my IPad and iPhone. The problem is that when I have 'stacked' images (eg. one image showing in the album and two other copies 'hidden' underneath), all of the photos in the stack are copied to the ipad and iPhone. So instead of seeing just one version of an image, I see as many as are in the stack. How can I sync ONLY the top photo in the stack?
Thanks for your help!

I solved my own problem.
The sync problem seemed to only occur on smart albums. There is a new check box option in Aperture 3 when making a smart album: "sync stack pick only." One click and the problem is solved!

After IOS8 upgrade IPhone5s syncs with exchange but IPad2 syncs ONLY Mail and Contacts, NOT Calendar. Totally stumped. Ideas anyone?

After IOS8 upgrade IPhone5s syncs with exchange but IPad2 syncs ONLY Mail and Contacts, NOT Calendar.
Also, my other tablet - Samsung TabS - has same issue - calendar wont sync. My IPhone and my desktop (windows) synch just fine.
Google calendar syncs on all devices. Totally stumped. Ideas anyone?
THANKS

1.      Log onto Outlook Web Access
2.      Top right hand part of the screen select "Options"
3.     Select "See All Options"
4.      Select "Phone" menu
Check if you have 10 Devices registered.
If you have, you need to delete one of them to add your new Smart Phone to Exchange for synching
Check the "Last Sync Time" to indicate if this device is still active or not.

HT1386 How can I sync only selected playlists from my library in iTunes to iPhone?

Option to sync only selected playlists is grayed out in iTunes for my iPhone. How can I make it so I don't have to sync my entire library?

know this might sound silly
but make sure that
1) sync music is checked
2) you have playlist with songs in them
3) your songs have some sort of sorting form on them (artist, genre, album, etc.)
also try
rebooting pc and device and reconnecting
if all else fails, redownload itunes

I have a iphone 4s with ios 8.3 and I used to be able to sync only a week or two of emails from outlook email. Now it won't let me do that and it syncs all my inbox. How can I change it back to sync less. I can't find the right place.

I understand, as that was the place I would change it before 8.3 but now that option of Mail Days to Sync is not available? Any idea why that would be?

Yes. Configure your Shuffle to sync only selected playlists from under its Music tab. This article should be able to assist you with this.

How do I sync only specific playlists with iCloud?

When I used to sync my iPhone & iPods to my iMac, I could easily select specific playlists to sync. However, since I "upgraded" to the iCloud music service, I don't see any way to exclude playlists from the sync. Any advice would be much appreciated.
Thanks.
Ken

Thanks Michael. I switched from manual sync, and selected sync only checked songs, while at the same time unchecking certain playlists in iTunes. I don't know if that's the best way or not, but it worked for me.
Your tip on how to check and uncheck songs in large groups was really helpful, because I have multiple ipods to sync, and I want these playlists on some of them, so that makes it pretty easy to update checked and unchecked songs as needed. Thanks.

Purposefully NOT syncing only one calendar in iCal, possibility?

Does anyone know of a way to purposefully NOT sync only one of my ical calendars across MobileMe, while still syncing the rest?
I'm using the calendar in question to automatically run an application every hour on my home computer using ical alarms. I have my home computer and work computers synced through mobileme so that my calendars will show up on my work computer. Problems is I do not want the application to be run every hour on my work computer. Unchecking the calendar did not seem to stop the alarms from going off on the work computer. Can anyone think of a way I can keep the calendar at home but not have it sync to mobileme?
Thanks!

I bought and have used BusySync with great success http://www.busymac.com/
My only caveat is that I've had problems recently that are probably due to the fact I've also installed Appigo Sync, and with syncing via MobileMe I may have had too many cooks in the kitchen.
Good luck!

How can I sync only certain apps after a restore instead of all of them?

I've been serisouly frustrated with iTunes trying to find a way to sync only the apps I want to sync. But iTunes insists that I sync every single app I have downloaded in the past to my phone and I don't want all of them on there. Now after restoring I have a bunch of apps on my phone waiting to sync and now have to either restore again or individually delete all 155 of them. Are there certain settings I'm missing here? Please help!!

Thanks for the help I did not receive
Hey, glad I didn't help.
I mean, you waited a whole 38 minutes for someone to volunteer their assistance.
FYI:
Select the iPhone in iTunes.
Click the Apps tab.
Click Sync apps and tick the apps you want to sync.
Click Apply at bottom.
You're welcome.
After literally digging for forever.
Something less than 38 minutes is forever? (time it took to post first question, find answer, get upset and post 2nd time).
Oh, and thanks for posting how you resolved the issue so others (who may not get an immediate reply) will know how to solve a similar issue without getting upset.
