Problem with wifi sync using both iPhone 4 and iPad 2

Ok. I've upgraded to iOS 5 and iTunes 10.5, wifi sync worked when I upgraded my iPhone 4. But, once I upgraded my iPad 2 to iOS 5, now niether shows up in the list on the left side. They don't show up when they're plugged in or anything. The "sync over wifi" check box under the device summary tab is checked for both as well.
So, anyone have any ideas?

Ok. Well, it seems to be working fine now. No idea why, but I'll take it.

I have a problem with the synchronisation of my iPhone and iPad with Outlook 2007 on my 64-bit Windows 7 PC. For several years,
I have had no problems with the synchronisation by cord connection and iTunes between these programmes. However, a few months ago I decided to use Mobile Me. However, there were problems with duplication of calendars and then “rogue events” – which could not be deleted – even if deleted on Outlook and on the iPhone (or both at the same time) – they would just reappear after the next synchronisation. All other synchronisation areas (eg Contacts, Notes etc) work fine.
I have looked for help through the Apple Support Community and tried many things. I have repaired my Outlook. I have repaired my .pst file in Windows. I have re-installed the latest version of iTunes on my PC. I have re-installed the firmware on my iPhone. I have tried many permutations on my iPhone. I have closed down all Mobile Me functions on the iPhone. I have spent upwards of 24 hours trying to solve this problem.
What am I left with? Outlook works seamlessly on my PC. My iPhone calendar now has no events from my calendar, but does not synchronise through iTunes. Nor does it send events initiated on the iPhone to the Outlook. I am at the point of abandoning iPhones and iPads altogether. I need to have a properly synchronising calendar on my phone. Do you have any suggestions?

In the control panel goto the "Lenovo - Power Manager" and click the battery tab, there is a maintenance button in there that will let you change the charging profile for your battery. (from memory, so exact wording may be off)
The lower the numbers you use there, the longer the battery *should* last. These batteries degrade faster at higher charge levels, however storing them at too low of levels is also not good for them... I've read that 40% is optimal, but just not realistic if you use your computer.

Why cant my imessages sync across both iphone and ipad

why cant my imessages sync across both iphone and ipad same with face time

I looked into your question and believe I may have a solution for you.
Your iMessages likely aren't syncing because of a bug in iOS 5. Syncing iMessages between iOS devices is supposed to happen automatically, but sometimes it does not.
You could likely manually activate syncing by navigating to Setttings --> Messages --> Receive At --> Caller ID on both your iPad and iPhone and selecting your Apple ID.

Problems with updating Apple ID on iPhone and iPad

Hi! I had to change my email address, so I changed my Apple ID online, in iTunes, and on my iPhone 5 and iPad 2 (in the Store area). I am able to purchase/update Apps, etc on both devices. My problem is that both my iPhone and iPad still will get a random pop-up with my old Apple ID asking for my password. This happens pretty frequently. Thanks in advance!

Hi Friend,
While your idevices still having apps downloaded by the old Apple ID, Apple Store will ask you for the old Apple ID and password to updated them. But, if you delete all apps downloaded by the old Apple ID, then download again by the new Apple ID, Apple Store will not ask you anymore for the old one.
Hope it helps

I have bought itunes songs on an ipad with my daughter apple id. i would like to back them up on the same computer I sync my iphone with using my apple id but they will not transfer. Both iphone and ipad have only been synced on the computer mentione

I have bought itunes songs on an ipad with my daughter apple id. i would like to back them up on the same computer I sync my iphone with using my apple id but they will not transfer. Both iphone and ipad have only been synced on the computer mentioned since they were purchased. Is there any way to get the ipad music transferred to the computer?

And they were definitely purchased from the iTunes store, they show on the account's purchase history (Store > View Account on a computer's iTunes, or you can view the last 90 days purchases via http://reportaproblem.apple.com) ?
You could potentially log into the account on that computer's iTunes (Store > Sign Out to log out of your account, that will then change to a Store > Sign In option) and redownload them by clicking on the id towards the top right of the iTunes screen and Purchased on the popup :
But that will potentially tie that computer to that account for 90 days : Manage your associated devices in iTunes - Apple Support
Or do you have a different computer that you could redownload them on and then copy them over to that computer via a flash drive or memory card, and then add them to its iTunes via File > Add To Library ?

Mail on iMac not accessing MS Exchange server but both iPhone and iPad access the same account with no problems.

I have been using an iPhone and iPad to access my work emails via our MS Exchange server for a number of years now with no problems at all. I recently replaced my home PC with an iMac (first Mac I have owned) but cannot get it to communicate with the exchange server. I've checked and re-checked the information on the iMac and my iPad - I even deleted the mail account on the iPad and input the details concurrently with setting up on the iMac - but the Mac will not access the exchange server.
I receive the message "The Exchange server "---------------" rejected the password for user "------" Enter you password again or cancel." I am using the correct password. iPad and iPhone are logging on using that password fine. iMac just ends up repeating this message.
Our IT support at work assure me that there is no reason from their end for it not to work, and reasonably point to it working using the iPhone etc.
I'd be extremely grateful if anyone can provide a solution to this basic, but extremely frustrating, little problem.

iPhone and iPad use a different way of accessing the server.
I don't know the exact details, but we are using Zarafa instead of Exchange and have the same problem:
iPhone and the likes can connect to Zarafas z-push interface, which is some identical interface to the native Exchange interface, while the desktop e-mail application tries to interface with the web front end (via http) of the server.
These are completely different setups and it depends on the actual installation of the server to get this going.
So, you will most likely need different access parameters for the desktop - and the web mail feature has to be enabled on the Exchange server.
In my opinion using the web mail interface is just silly. On the other hand, the native protocol has less features comparedto the web front end, so you are somehow stuck with sins of the past.
Good luck!

I accidentally sync both IPhones and IPad to my Mac, so all of my pictures keep saying on all of devices. Is there a way to take them off all of my devices?

I sync all my devices, both IPhone and IPad not realizing all of my photo's would keep saving everywhere. I have resolved that issue, I just needed to find out if, there is a way to delete all of the photo's off both IPhones and IPad, but not from my Mac. Is this possible?

Hello, bethannfromct.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
To remove synced photo albums from the device you will need to remove the sync preference in iTunes, see the steps in the first article below. You will need to process these steps for each iOS device.

How can I delete apps in iTunes and have that sync to my iPhone and iPad?

How can I delete apps in iTunes and have that sync to my iPhone and iPad? I don't want to delete 3 separate times for each item. I just carefully chose 30-35 apps to get rid of via iTunes, hoping it would sync to my devices, only to find I have to repeat the process on my iPad, take notes, then repeat it on my iPhone. It wasn't always so tedious was it?
Here's the "Help" I got from Apple. They even quoted my question back to me then proceeded to answer with something very different and completely missing the point.
I understand that you would like to delete the Apps. I know how eager you are to get the required information and I will be happy to assist you.
You can remove individual songs, audiobooks, and videos from your iPod, iPhone, or iPad. Removing an item from your device doesn't delete it from your iTunes library.
To remove items from a device other than an iPod shuffle, first make sure that iTunes is set up to manually manage items.
1. Connect your iPod, iPhone, or iPad to your computer.
2. When the iPod, iPhone, or iPad icon appears in iTunes, select it.
3. Unless your device is an iPod shuffle, click the Summary tab and make sure "Manually manage music and videos" or "Manually manage music" is selected.
4. If the disclosure triangle to the left of your iPod, iPhone, or iPad (below Devices) is closed, click the triangle so that you can see the device's contents.
5. Select the item you want to delete and press the Delete key.
This was not helpful in any way and I am still unable to delete apps on my devices in a global, iTunes based way. Each device still requires its own independent process.

Match was off. I made all of the changes and then went through the "Turn on iTunes Match" option. I now have deleted some tracks, edited the Metadata in CDDA, and then added it back. This worked fine, but it is not a good solution.
I just tried making some edits and use the "Update iTunes Match" and that seemed to work. It looks like the real answer is that Match must be up and operational, then you can make changes and run the Update to incorporate the changes. However, if Match has a problem then Signing Out and back in to your store account and going through the process of Turning On Match (were you get the questions, "Add this Computer to Match" will overwrite any changes.
Since this relies on the stability of iTunes, I won't be making a lot of changes between updates.

Numbers for Mac does not show all stored Numbers files in iCloud that are already in use on iPhone and ipad

I have been using Numbers on both iPhone and iPad for a while and have about 8 files stored on iCloud. I have just purchased Numbers for Mac but I do not see any of my files stored in iCloud. I have created a test spreadsheet on my Mac which says it is stored on iCloud when I choose File - Open on my Mac but this test file does not appear on Numbers on iPhone or iPad.

I have tried all what you have suggested but still no luck. I am unable to locate the file Mobile Documents in either the Library folder under Mac HD or Mac HD - System - Library.
If you've set up iCloud properly on the Mac then in your Library there will be a Mobile Documents folder with documents in it:
Everything else syncs absolutley fine such as contacts, mail, notes, pictures etc etc.
Contacts, Mail, etc. sync via another iCloud protocol. For Numbers you need 'Documents & Data' turned on, per the screenshot upthread.
Numbers appears twice under iCloud for some reason though -
Numbers doesn't appear "under iCloud". Numbers uses iCloud to sync. Not sure what your screenshot is showing. On the Mac your Numbers will be here (in Finder):

Sync Apps to iPhone and iPad?

In the case of apps that will run on both iPhone and iPad (even if they don't use the full iPad screen), will iTunes (and the app developers) allow me to run the same app on both machines, or do I have to buy each such app a second time (i.e., one license for each machine)?

app licenses are tied to the iTunes account. You can use them on as many devices as you wish so long as the device and the computer you use to sync it are authorized for your account as well.

Hi F1N5G10,
Thanks for contributing to the Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like you don't have the AirPlay option on your iOS devices. Restarting your Apple TV and iOS devices was a good first step, and you can find some additional tips to guide your troubleshooting at this link:

I bought songs on my laptop which synced to my iphone and iPad. But I can't find them on itunes library on my home computer. However, when I click download for the same song it says it has already been purchased. How do I find it on home computer?

Is your "home computer" the same as your laptop or are these two different machines?

How do i delete music with grayed titles in my iphone and ipad. iTunes Match is on

how do i delete music with grayed titles in my iPhone and iPad. the grayed titles happened when i installed iTunes Match.

I've done the reset iTunes Match routine turning it on or off in my devices. Everytime its On, it goes thru d scan, match and upload process. When it gets to tge upload stage, it takes sooooo long for just one song to upload, as if d remaining song (2k+) will take years. Anyway, the grayed titles still don't go away. These titles are not exactly missing. I can play those titles because they also appear in my devices as regular content - meaning, the grayed titles are duplicates but don't go away.
By the way, these grayed titles are viewable only in iTunes Match not on my devices (iPhone 4 and ipad2)
