Reminders Stopped Synching

Last week I noticed that Reminders on my desktop (iMac running Mavericks) is no longer synching up.  If I create a remind on my iphone, it no longer shows up on the reminders app on my iMac.  Other programs such as Notes, Calendar, Mail, Contacts etc all still work and synch up just fine.  I also checked on the web based iCloud, and they all synched up there just fine with what I was entering into my iPhone.  Not sure why it's only this one app, and I can seem to see a way to play with any settings.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Please take this step regardless of the results of Step 1.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2.

  • Why have reminders stopped synching on ios8 when iCloud Drive is switched on

    i have shared reminder lists on my iPhone that are failing to sync onto my iPad now that both devices have iOS 8 installed. If I disable iCloud Drive then the sync starts working again. Any ideas why?

    That is a great comparison of the different views of app specific folders and settings in iCloud.
    I agree, it is confusing. Some of the differences are easily explained, but the inconsistency is confusing and irritating.
    One reason for differences is probably caused by the transit from the old application centric "iCloud: Documents & Data" to iCloud Drive. Not all applications have yet been updated to the new scheme, for example GarageBand. It still cannot access iCloud Drive, but uses the old "document&Data".  I hope, that will happen soon. But I doubt, that we ever will be able to open GarageBand for Mac projects with GarageBand iOS on mobile devices, at least if want the projects to sound the same on the mobile device. The mobile devices are still too limited to hold the full sound library and to bring the same processing power as the mac.

  • How do I get iPad to stop synching bookmarks to my PC?

    How do I get iPad to stop synching bookmarks to my PC?

    Do you have iTunes Match? 
    If so, when does your subscription expire?  There have recently been a fair number of problems with the early adopters of iTunes Match having problems as iTM attempts to auto-renew the subscription.  Fixing this requires actual involvement of an Apple Tech Support person.
    What you're describing was exactly the behavior I experienced when Apple mistakenly cut off my iTM account last weekend.

  • My iPhone 4S suddenly stopped synching with my Outlook after I downloaded latest updates. I get this message: iTunes unable to load provider data from Synch Services. Reconnect or try later. What to do?

    My iPhone 4 suddenly stopped synching to my Outlook 2010. This may be a result of downloading the recent iPhone and iTunes updates. I get this message: "iTunes unable to load provider data from Sync Services. Reconnect or try later."  Another message tells me to delete the back up data on my computer as it is corrupted. I cannot locate this back up data. What should I do?

    My Oulook 2010 Celndars have stopped synching to my iPhone. I thought it was new iPhone 5 but returning to iPhone 4 problem persists. It will load all calendars up to about a two weeks ago when it stopped working but nothing since then. New contacts added in the last two weeks do sync. I have checked software updates and every suggestion i can find. Hope someone can help.

    Try this trick i read on the other thread not sure if you have checked this, but Items on the iPhone calendar  not syncing to Outlook is is a symptom of the Outlook/Exchange Calendar not being set to default....you can look under settings/mail contacts calendar and check....

  • My ical stopped synching.

    My ical has stopped synching. At first I thought it was just my iPhone 6 that wasn't updating info from my Macbook but after a quick test I discovered it won't update in either direction. My cloud settings have been verified on both devices are set correctly.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi,
    kind of same issue: I input some ongoing events into my iPhone 6 the other day. I was noodling around on my MacBook today and noticed none of my events are updating onto my MacBook iCal. Not sure how to troubleshoot this issue, and there aren't a ton of posts about 'how to' synch iCal to ALL devices. AND various calendars within iCal.
    Any ideas on how to check settings or synch these two devices would be appreciated.

  • IOS health app stopped synching

    Has anyone else had their IOS 8.2 Health app stop synching with the Wahoo Fitness app? My data has stopped synching on the 12 March (after an IOS update?). I have all the historic and manually entered Fitness data present in the Health app upto and including the 12 March, then nothing is synched. When I try a manual synch from the Fitness app on data after the 12th March, I get the "com.apple.healthd.sqlite error 1" message.

    I'm having the exact same problem. I've even tried:
    1. Turn off all syncing by theirs-party sources.
    2. Delete all third-party apps that might sync data so that the Health App "Sources" list is empty
    3. Reset all settings on the phone.
    4. Reload third-party apps one by one
    5. Selectively turn on syncing by third-party apps and only sync categories I really want to see.
    All to no avail. The Health App crashes constantly and when trying to input data into third-party apps, those apps will crash also.
    I'm currently trying to sync data with:
    UP by Jawbone (UP24)
    Withings HealthMate (Withings WiFi scale)
    MyFitnessPal
    Runtastic
    Nike+

  • Reminders stopped working after installing 7

    Reminders stopped working when I installed the 7 upgrade.  And the 7.1 did not help. Old lists evaporated, as did any list I added.  But if I searched I could see they were still there.  I went to the apple store and they shrugged their shoulders and said they had not seen it.  They said use it in the cloud and all will be fine.  Or wipe and reinstall, but all cookies will be lost, which is a huge pain. 
    I finally relented and enabled the cloud.  It worked for one or two days then stopped again. 
    I tried buying similar apps, but don't like any of them.
    I just want the reminders app to work, I use it to organize my day.  It really ***** that Apple can't get such a simple thing to work, and my only option is to wipe and have to re-enter fifty passwords and user names.
    Any suggestions?

    Was that Win 7 update from Lenovo, or Microsoft?  If Lenovo, it should have installed those missing features. If it was from Microsoft, you have to manually install the Lenovo drivers and software.
    The easiest way to do that is to first install ThinkVantage System Update and run it.  It should download and install the other drivers and apps.  I'm running Win 7 pro 64 on my T400 - a MS upgrade clean install, then TVSU installed the Lenovo stuff.  Everything works.
    Use the "SUPPORT" button at the top of this page, then "Download drivers and software" enter T400, install TVSU and you should be off to the races.

  • I have been using iCloud since it came out to coordinate my schedules from my phone, ipad and Mac laptop.  Last week they stopped synching...I can't upgrade b/c of memory. Could this cause the problem?

    I have been using iCloud since it came out to coordinate my schedules from my phone, ipad and Mac laptop.  Last week they stopped synching...I can't upgrade past OS 5.1.1. b/c of memory (1st generation iPad and iPhone 4s). Could this cause the problem after the release of the new OS?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    First check that all your settings are correct, that calendar syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
    Make sure the calendars you are using are in your 'iCloud' account and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud account (you can do this by clicking/tapping the calendar button in the top left corner of the application ), non iCloud calendars will not sync.
    If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your calendars are in the iCloud account, you might try unchecking calendar syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling calendar syncing settings.

  • BOTH computers have suddenly stopped synching with my Treo

    Howdy - 
    I've been battling this for a week. First my home Mac, then my work Mac, within days of each other (no more than a week, maybe) stopped synching with my Treo. And I think the problem is with both computers! 
    Reason: The problem is clearly with the Transport Monitor on the Palm Desktop HotSynch. It ain't there. And before you ask, I've redownloaded the latest desktop (I already had the latest to begin with!), and restarted, several times on both computers in the past week.  The EXACT same things happen:
    - attempt at Hotsynch yields nothing on the computers. No reaction, no connection, no communication.
    -  Open Hotsynch on desktop; low and behold, Hotsynch is DISABLED - Ok; click on Enabled......and 5 seconds later, by itself, it DISABLES itself again.
    --- and gives an error message:  "Transport Monitor  could not complete your request. (16)."
    Ah-hah; that's why there's no communication with the Treo when it tries to Hotsynch, he says smugly.  I'll check the Palm Folder.......checking....well, the Transport Monitor icon is there.  Huh. 
    - simplest thing:  re-download and install latest Desktop.  Done. Restart.
    - now, that's funny; while the computer was rebooting, that same darn error message came up:   "Transport Monitor  could not complete your request. (16)." 
    This is before the computer is 100% restarted even.  It's almost like, during the restart process, when it checked (or tried to enable, I guess?) Transport Monitor, it was failing right there.
    - Try to Hotsynch - again, Palm desktop doesn't even know it's happening; no communication with the Treo.  (And no "Transport Monitor" error message, either; maybe because it doesn't know it's there?).  Nothing.
    - Go check. HotSynch; yup, same thing; Hotsynch is DISABLED - and won't allow itself to be enabled.  Go to Palm Folder, and yup, Transport Monitor appears to be right there, size 360kb.  
    If there is a problem recognizing Transport monitor, even AFTER it is ENABLED; or, replaced with a brand new transport monitor (via the Desktop download)..... then he thinks he'll: trash the Transport Monitor.  Empty the Mac trash. Restart.  Then redownload the Desktop which includes a totally pristine Transport Monitor!  
    Ok!  Restart.....
    - and the exact same thing happens.   During the Mac restart after yet another Palm Desktop download, that darn Transport Monitor error message comes up, just on the restart.  Then repeat all the testing and checking above......nothing has changed.
    AND THIS ALL HAS OCCURRED ON TWO SEPARATE MACS - one at work, one at home.  And while they don't have identical software applications (naturally), they are acting exactly the same with this Palm Desktop error, too the tee - and they failed in this within one week of each other.  
     Both MacBooks are almost identical; both less than a year old; one with 4 gig RAM, one with 2 gig ram.  Both running 10.5.7 . (Question: Is it possible for me to find out when each computer was updated to 10.5.7? Could that be the problem?? Or another of the common applications; e.g, I have the same version of Microsoft mac Office on both).
    Guys, I haven't been able to hotsynch with EITHER computer for two weeks now - which for my lifestyle is unacceptable. "Help me, Obi- wan; you're......."
    Standing by.....

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

  • My iPhone 4s and MacPro stopped synching

    I'm not sure why, but my iPhone 4S and My MacPro tower have stopped synching calendar appointments.  I do not recall doing anything to affect this, but I do have some kinks every now and then.  Anybody run into this issue, and if so, how do you fix it?
    Thank you.

    That is actually strange, cause iphone (none of the models) does not support the Ford's proprietary, system when you can dictate message over. You can find info on compatible phones on Fords site. Very limited amount of phones supports that feature, one out of 15 or so.

  • Stop synching to PC

    I want to stop synching tv shows and movies to my PC which I've downloaded directly onto Apple TV. I've tried to stop the auto synch feature but when I do a message comes up saying that if I do, the content on the AppleTV will be lost. What do/can I do?
    thanks

    you cannot stop this from happening, this is by designed.. it's a sync after all.. appleTV is designed to be like a big iPod.. i.e. it temporarily holds a portion of your iTunes library, but the permanent archive is the iTunes library on your computer not the appleTV.. appleTV is not designed to act as permanent storage. also the appleTV cannot be backed up so if you were to only have the items on the appleTV and the appleTV drive failed or something got corrupted such that you needed to do a restore all that media would be gone.. there are ways around this but they are not very wise since all drives fail eventually it's just a matter of when so you'd be playing Russian roulette with your files..
    if you are running out of room on your computer the answer is to either upgrade or add to the internal storage or migrate all or some portion of your iTunes library to an external drive.. e.g. i have all my music stored interenally and all my movies and TV shows on a large external.
