Problem with syncing contacts

My Ipod has stopped syncing contacts. It was working previously, but is no longer working. I see Itunes very briefly accessing contacts, but nothing is transfered. Contacts once on the Ipod are gone now. Any ideas on how to diagnose this problem? I did reset the Ipod, rebooted the computer several times, etc. It is a windows xp system.

hi Dave!

... it might be worth sending in some feedback to Apple on the problem via this form:

Problems with syncing contacts

Both myself and my wife have iPhones, but unfortunately there is only one pc in the house. When I sync my phone, I get all my wifes contacts and she gets mine - is there any way to stop this from happening?

I cannot iTunes sync my contacts and calendar from outlook (Windows 7) with my iPhone 4 (connecting via a USB).
By any chance are you running any Eset security software products (like Nod32) on that PC?
If so, there's a couple of alternatives.
Either try the procedure in Samoreen's post:
Re: iTunes 11.1.4.62 freezes while syncing with Outlook
Or, see if you can get hold of the Eset beta addressing the problem. As Samoreen notes in another post:
ESET have a workaround for this issue. They gave me access to a test version of the HIPS module and this fixed the problem. So I could re-enable the ESET_OPTIONS environment variable (although I still consider that it's a questionable idea). I upgraded to iTunes 11.1.5.5 and there was no problem.
So maybe you should get in touch with ESET support and request the new module ? Just send a message to Marcos in the ESET forum.

Problems with synced contacts

Hi guys,
Whenever I try to sync my contacts from iPhone 4 -> Windows 7, by iTunes, it only sync about 47 contacts to Windows. But on the iPhone there's about 78 contacts.
Am I doing something wrong, or?
/Smartguy

Which contact you are syncing to; Outlook, Windows Mail, Google or Yahoo? Have you selected it under Info tab before you sync?

Problems With Syncing Info To New Device

I have tried to sync info from my previous palm to my new palm. The sync is from the PC to the palm. The sync stalls when it gets to the calendar. It is just stuck there and I can't seem to get past it. Does anyone have any suggestions for me?

Problem with Q10 contacts, Help!!!

I have a problem with my contacts. I have setup a work space for my business email account. And somehow I lost most address information on both my Q10 and my email contacts. I never edited them before. That should not be lost, how could it happen? Is there a bug on Q10?
Thanks so much in advance.

depending on what update you have but it is takes time for all info to show on this device. let it rest for some time and check later. if they are not there sync again and leave to think about. this used to be a huge problem with later software versions, with 10.2 it shall work more or less dynamically.

Problems with syncing Adobe Ideas with Adobe Creative Cloud

Dear Sir/Madam,
Since yesterday (22.04.2014) I have problems with syncing Adobe Ideas (in my iPad) with Adobe Creative Cloud.
Could you please help me with this issue?
Thanks in advance

Hello,
I do not understand why there is no professional communication about the problem. I get the impression that Adobe doesn't know that many people use their App as advertised: As a quick professional sketching tool that syncs with Creative Cloud. Not to fix the problem means more people not trusting the cloud idea. I am actually a big fan of the CC, mostly because of regular updates. But the mobile apps seem to fall out of the normal update scheme. Are they not as important as the 'main software'?
When will the bug be fixed? Just to make clear: As there - up to now - is no other way to get the original idea files on the computer the adobe idea app is useless unless you fix the problem and/ or include the possibility to sync files via USB.
Meanwhile my Workaround:
You need Phoneview or another software that shows the files on your mobile device.
Open it - choose "Apps" - click on "Show all Apps" - click on "Adobe Ideas"
Than go to:
Library/Private Documents/documents/data/files/
there you find folders with cryptic names
Download one of the folders
Open the Folder
select all files in the folder and zip them
Change the extension from .zip to .idea
and voila
you can open it with Adobe Illustrator!
A long way, but for now the only solution to get the editable vector file on your computer.
Best regards

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
Maybe a long shot, but WD is not known for the quality of some of their enclosures, although I do like the drives themselves. It may be worth mounting this drive in a different enclosure, something like one of OWC's FireWire enclosures with the highly reliable Oxford chip sets. I wouldn't be inclined to trust a WD enclosure, especially if it already seemed to be acting in a flakey manner.
Here's an example of what I mean:
http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Other%20World%20Computing/MEP924FW8E2O/
I have 3 of these and I really like them.
From what I understand, if the drive spins up, it is often possible to recover data from it. To be absolutely certain to destroy the data, you just about have to take a hammer to the disk. Hopefully, there will be a way to get your data back.
Good luck!

I have an iPhone 4S and never had a problem with syncing it. But suddenly, when I connected my phone to my mac, it says that its in recovery mode, and I need to restore it in order to sync. I've updated both my phone and my itunes, and it didnt work.Help?

No, it does not. It transfers purchases from the iDevice to the computer. The computer must be authorized for the Apple ID that the content was acquired with.

my playlists wont show up on the phone.
Are they selected to sync? Is Manually Manage content on the device selected?

What does that have to do with syncing content to the device? FYI, nothing.

So, in iTunes, when you look at the shuffle's content (in the sidebar) and click on the playlist under the shuffle, over to the right, the songs are in your desired order, correct? Where do you look, or what do you do, that indicates the playlists are in alphabetical order? Are you saying that when you play the songs while using the shuffle, they play in alphabetical order?
If so, when you listen to the songs on the shuffle, are you using the playlist, or are you using the All Songs list? If you are in the default All Songs list, with the shuffle's power switch set to play-in-order (the middle position), the songs play alphabetically, I believe.
The 3rd gen shuffle uses VoiceOver. If you are in the All Songs list, you need to use VoiceOver to switch to the playlist (see manual linked below for details). When you are in the playlist (with the shuffle's power switch set to play-in-order), then the songs should play in playlist order.
There are more details in the manual for the 3rd gen shuffle, which is online here
http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iPod_shuffle_3rdGen_UG.pdf
See page 22 for the section about setting up and using VoiceOver. The part about switching playlists starts on page 23 (Using the Playlist Menu).

Problem with syncing AD users (LDAP)

I am running into a 'problem' with syncing users from ad. I'm pretty sure i'm doing something wrong but i can't figure it out.
When i sync manually the 'pop up' shows that it's synchronizing and after a few seconds it tells me "OK". But there are 0 users imported.
http://www.dualdude.net/bm/run_ldap_sync.jpg
The connection and credentials to access the AD work since they are also used for Zarafa and Samba AD synchronization. The AD is running on an Windows Server 2008 Enterprise x64 machine.
This is a screenshot of the configuration used:
http://www.dualdude.net/bm/ldap_config.jpg
Any thoughts on what i'm doing wrong?

I got the same problem when using groupfilter:
User Filter: (&(|(objectClass=Person)(objectClass=orgPerson)(ob jectClass=inetOrgPerson))(groupMembership=cn=users ,ou=org,o=firma))
Group Filter: (&(|(objectClass=group)(objectClass=groupOfNames)( objectClass=groupOfUniqueNames))(|(cn=G4)(cn=TC*)) )
Do you use groups for the allowed users in teaming?
>>> lnijhuis<[email protected]> 14.01.2010 16:36 >>>
Thank you for your reply. I guess the comma's should be right. When i
change the first "ou=" in the Base DN to "cn=" the error message states
that the best it can do is reach
ou=OrganizationalUnit,dn=domain,dn=local. So i guess that shouldn't be
the problem?
By default there is a container "Users" in AD, which we don't use. The
person that configured the server created an OU on the same level as the
default container. THe name of this OU has a space in the name, like
"Organi Zation". This OU contains another OU called Users. This is where
the users are located. When i run the ldap query i don't get any errors
about the base DN. It does when i change it.
The full filter is:
(|(objectClass=Person)(objectClass=orgPerson)(obje ctClass=inetOrgPerson))

HT1296 Have a problem with syncing. I get this message: The ipod Bill's Ipod" cannot be synced because there is not enough space to hold all of the items in the iTunes library (additional 2.4GB required) I don't understand as I have much more space than 2

I recently ran into a problem with syncing my ipod touch to itunes on my Windows 7 pc. It had previously been synced to my older laptop
and I wanted to change to my newer Windows 7 laptop's itunes library that I had already been syncing with.
Anyway, I started seeing this message that prevents my from syncing:
The iPod "Bill's iPod" cannot be synced because there is not enough free space to hold all of the items in the iTunes library
(additional 2.48 GB required)
Not sure if it is talking about my iPod free space or my PC itunes library free space. Either way I have 11.0 GB free space available
on my iPod and 412 GB free space available on my Windows 7 PC.
How do I handle this problem? Please help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks

It is saying that the iPod does not have enough free storage to sync all the items yu have selected to sync to the iPod. You need 2.48 GB more free on the iPod. You need either to select less to sync or delete some content form the iPod.

Problems with syncing my ipod

Yesterday I updated my iPod tot 1.1
After that it had that crappie bug with the video's, so I downgraded my iPod. After that I updated it again tot 1.1
Now I have a problem with syncing my iPod (video's only).
First I had some series it synced with my iPod, also after the first update. But after the second update it tells me there are some files it couldn't sync. (some videos it did sync btw, and the problem with the sound has gone, I can play movies normal now!)
So the problem is now that it doesn't sync all my movies anymore, and I converted all of them with the same program..
Anyone has the same problem or knows how to solve?

Mijn advies: terug naar versie 1.0. Tenzij je versie 1.1 nodig hebt, natuurlijk (voor radio o.i.d.). Of wachten op versie 1.2
Ik heb zojuist versie 1.0 geherinstalleerd, en alles werkt nu prima. En telkens als iTunes vraagt of ik de nieuwste versie wil installeren klik ik op NEE.

My Client is having a serious problem with the Contact Form Widget

My Client is having a serious problem with the Contact Form Widget that I can not figure out how to correct.
I created a website for a client and inserted a Contact Form widget on their 'Contact Us' page. Whenever anyone uses the form, the e-mail my client receive shows my e-mail address as the sender. So, when they 'reply' to the e-mail, the reply is sent to me and not the person who sent the original message. This creates a major problem in that I get barraged with e-mail replies while my client's potential customers go without a response.
When I look at 'Site Manager > System E-Mails > Workflow Information > E-mail From Address' on the site's Admin Console, it shows my e-mail information. Is this is what needs to be changed? If it is, what needs to be placed in that field so that the e-mail my client receives shows the senders e-mail information in the 'From' field. My client wants to be able to click reply and have the message sent to the right party. They would be very upset if they have to cut and past the senders e-mail address from the body text on every contact they receive.
Their feeling is that if I can't find a way to make the contact form work the way it should, then it's useless to them.
Can anyone help me figure this out? I really don't want to disappoint my first client.

Are you on a plan that has the CRM feature that stores your customers' data? If so, the idea of the contact form is that you'll receive a notification that there's been an inquiry filled out on your contact form and there should be a link in that email notification that leads to the "Case" that was created when that customer filled out a contact form. You can click that link and visit the case for that customer in your BC site and reply to them from there so that all of the correspondence is logged in the CRM for safe-keeping and for your records.
If your client finds this is too much work to login to BC to reply every time, then you should check to see if you have the "Customer Service Ticketing" feature on your hosting plan. This is a feature where you create a dedicated email account (like [email protected]) and the BC system will automatically login to that email account and pull any emails in that inbox and convert them to a customer case for the sender of the email and then it will send out a notification via email to any of the BC Admin users you delegate as "Customer Service Agents". Since the CST integrates with the BC CRM it lets you reply directly within the email-- but when you reply it will be going to that same email address dedicated to the CST but once the CST service checks your email again and sees that you replied to this inquiry it will log your reply against the customer's case and sends your reply via email back to them so that all the correspondance gets logged on BC's CRM but you can still reply via email.
There's no way to use the default web forms to update the "From" or "Reply-To" address.. it must come from an approved email address to avoid spam issues. On most web services you cannot change the "from" address anyway but usually you can at least specify the "Reply-To" address so that when someone hits "reply" in their email client it will reply to whoever you setup as the "Reply-To" address.
Here's some more information about CST: http://kb.worldsecuresystems.com/kb/customer-service-ticketing.html?bc-partner
I don't think the CST feature is in the webMarketing BC plan-- I think it's only in the webCommerce plan so if you have less than an webCommerce plan you have to tell your client to reply through BC by clicking the link in the notification they get. You can justify it by saying its one or two more steps but it keeps the entire convo on record in their CRM for easy referral later.
