"Related Names" Does Not Sync From Apple Address Book to iOS 4 Address Book

I keep a very detailed address book and have just realized that the "related names" field does not sync from my Mac to my iPhone.  Does anyone know if this is a limitation of the iTunes syncing and the software, or am I doing something wrong?  If this is a limitation, does anyone know a work around?  This is important information for me to have on the go.

Oops -- I just had to turn iCloud on in the System settings on the iPhone, then the Contacts synched.

    Apparantly it is, On My Mac contacts don't appear in iCloud, anywhere.
    Put all your contacts on all of your devices in iCloud (assuming that's where you want them to be)
    Go to www.icloud.com, login and see what you actually have in the account.

  • Calendar does not sync from Device to Outlook

    I am using a BB Style with MS Outlook. We do not have BES so I sync with a wire. I have set BB Desktop Manager to sync both ways but the calendar only syncs one way. Events I add to my device calendar do not sync to my desktop. Any ideas?

  • Movie made with iPad2 does not sync from PC to iPad2. Why?

    Hi All,
    I take my iPad2 and I make a 20 second movie in HD quality. I connect it to my Windows PC and with Windows Explorer I go to my iPad, locate the movie file and copy it to my desktop.
    Then, I pick it up from my desktop, drag it to iTunes and drop it on my still connected iPad. This would effectively transfer the video to 'Videos' on the iPad as opposed to the photo album.
    iTunes reports that the file cannot be sync'ed because my iPad2 is not capable of playing the file.
    WT*?????? This video is created by my iPad2. Surely I must be able to play it back?
    Can anyone clarify why this is?
    With regards to the why of this procedure: this relates to making videos myself and wanting to watch them on my iPad. There are loads of posts about that, but most of them relate to external videos being sync'ed to the pad. I am experiencing this problem straight with iPad movies themself.
    BTW: In the previous version of iTunes (I just upgraded to 10.5) this was no problem at all. Apple, please fix this.

    SOLVED.
    Some people are só quick to reply, even offline.
    iTunes 10.5 no longer has Quicktime on board and therefor iTunes *thinks* that your iPad can no longer play it's own video's.
    Solution: install Quicktime, reboot (just to be sure) and copy your movie files to your pad. Works like a charm, but isn't that error message from iTunes just a little bit incorrect?

  • Some cover artwork does not sync from iTunes to iPod

    I got the album artwork using the "get artwork" feature, but there are a number of album covers that show up in iTunes, but don't display on my iPod after syncing. Most of the artwork synced ok, but there are a few that for some reason don't display. Suggestions?

    There's a couple of things to try.
    First, highlight all tracks before using Apple's 'get artwork' feature. Most people already do this.
    For really stubborn albums, and I've had a few where there's no logical reason why the album cover doesn't show on the iPod, try removing the offending tracks from the iTunes library (no need to send them to the trash), then locate them and re-import by double clicking on them, and 'get artwork' again, then re-sync.
    Failing that, remove the tracks again, but this time attach the album cover to the track's ID tags directly. You can use something like MediaRage for this. Now the artwork is embedded with the track info and automatically shows in iTunes and the iPod.

  • 'Last Played' date does not sync from ipod to itunes

    Hi, I've looked through the forums and can't find an answer to this, but apologies if this has already been answered elsewhere.
    I'm using itunes 7 with Windows XP and a 20gb 3rd gen ipod. I have a number of smart playlists which are based on the date songs were last played, but recently this hasn't been updated from ipod to itunes. It used to - I'm not sure if the problem has been since I updated to itunes 7 or not, but it might be. Weirdly, the play count - IS updated, so itunes knows that I played the song on my ipod, it just doesn't know when!!
    Any ideas?
    Thanks in advance
    David

  • Calendar does not sync from IPad to IMac

    I manually connect Ipad to IMac to sync, but it no longer picks up the new items on my IPad and transfers them to my desktop.  Suggestions please?!

    That facility is no longer available. Use iCloud to sync calendars between iDevices and Mac, etc.

  • Caller name does not display

    When any of my contacts calls me, their name does not appear from the phonebook. ALl I get is a number. How can I change this??

    This is usually caused by the duplication of contacts. Have a look at this link.

  • Sync between MacBookPro and iPhone 3G does not sync properly.  Calendars duplicate events but worse is that only contacts from Address book from letter T onwards sync.  Any contacts on iPhone which are not on Mac are lost during sync.

    Sync between MacBookPro and iPhone 3G does not sync properly.  Calendars duplicate events but worse is that only contacts from Address book from letter T onwards sync.  Any contacts on iPhone which are not on Mac are lost during sync.
    Solutions?

    No, I never really found an easy solution.  I believe it is an issue with some corruption in the iTunes database on the specific device.  In my case, both my iPad and iPhone now show duplicate stream songs if viewed through iTunes on my Mac, but they show different songs.  A couple years ago I had a similar issue on my iPhone, and Apple support suggested I back up the phone, completely reset it, and then restore it from the backup.  It did work, so I imagine it would probably work for my current issues with the iPhone and iPad.  But resetting and restoring an iPad or iPhone always makes me a little nervous that something will get lost.  When I did reset/restore the iPhone, I do have to say, the restore process was 100% perfect and I did not lose any data at all even though Apple support said I might.  If you try to go that route, I would suggest backing the device up both to a computer through iTunes, and to the iCloud so that you have a double backup.
    None of this really resolves the issue with how the iTunes databases are becoming corrupted on the apple devices though, so it is very likely to happen again until they fix it.  I have been unable to determine if there were any specific actions or conditions which caused the corruption to happen in the first place.
    Might be worth another call to Apple support, or dropping in the local Apple store if you have one near by.

  • Address Book Associates Field does not sync with iPhone

    Apple went to the trouble of getting custom field names in the Mac OS Address Book to synchronize with the iPhone (which is wonderful), but they left one field 'unsyncable'; the associates field. If you list a contact's manager name, spouse name, child name, etc. in Address Book, it does not sync with the iPhone (OS 3.0.1) 'Phone' application. This is very useful (and embarrasment-preventing) when needing to remember the name of a contact's manager, wife, child, etc. Does anyone have any idea why Apple left this out of the sync? Certainly it couldn't have to do with saving memory...

    Oh yes! i have this same problem - i have tried emailing Apple Customer Support but they were unable to help me. They advised me to speak to technical or raise the issue on the Apple Support board (but someone already has!)
    so if someone can help us both out here with how to sync additional field information added on Address Book on Mac to then sync all this additional information to iPhone, we would be greatly appreciative!!Thanks,
    Mark

  • IPhone calendar does not sync new events and appointments from Outlook

    iTunes 9.2.0.61/iPhone 4.0.1 - does not sync newly added events and appointments! Previously added stuff is all there, new stuff added in Outlook 2007 just doesn't show up. I've gone back to my old Palm T|X which syncs all this stuff with no problem, so it's not an Outlook bug.
    It looks like Apple has put a team of junior programmers on the Calendar app - I've seen leap-year bugs (still there), events showing up on the wrong day (still there), and I'm still waiting for the "week at a glance" view. Calendar is SO important for business use that top level "gray beard" engineers need to be on this. (Question for Apple's calendar developers: what's Zeller's Congruence? It they haven't heard of it they have no business doing calendar programming.)

    Spontaneously started syncing again - no idea why now, nor why it failed for so long. Related to the alarm bug? Who knows...

  • From pages on a mbp running 10.9.1, pages 5.0.1 does not sync automatically to iCloud after a doc is created and saved. I have rebooted and reset all devices.

    From pages on a mbp running 10.9.1, pages 5.0.1 does not sync automatically to iCloud after a doc is created and saved. I have rebooted and reset all devices.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    What exactly do you mean by 'it doesn't save'.
    Does this mean it doesn't save at all, doesn't save to the iCloud folder or doesn't sync with other the devices or iCloud.com.
