Set up my Outlook sync but need to turn off sync with Sent, Drafts and deleted folders
When I go into settings it greys out these as they are already checked. So I selected Sync all email folders assuming I could turn off the already selected folders but it only allows me to select additional folders vs uncheck existing folders.
Help!

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
To function properly and seamlessly, it needs to be syncing those folders all the time. As you are writing a message, it needs to be auto saving to the Drafts folder, and synchronizing to the server so as to protect from catastrophic device failure. Likewise, Sent Items need to be constantly placed onto your server as that is an equally necessary function. Likewise with deleted items (though there may be separate issues there).
Suffice to say that, if the box is already checked AND it's grayed out, then you can't affect the setting.
Good luck!

I recently got a new laptop, it has no music on it and I have been plugging my iPod in and listening to music that way. Tonight it decided to sync with my iTunes and deleted all of my music. Is there any way I can get my music back?

If we close Firefox. It appears to be done, but if I go to open it again it will say it is still running and we need to close it. I have to Ctrl Alt Delete and go to the processes tab to end it

anyway i can sync without losing everything i have on there?
You cannot.
This si the way the iphone works.
You need to use your backup copy top put everything back on your computer.
Certainly you did not wipe your hard drive without making sure that your backup copy of your computer was current. -
Hi all
I bought a second hand mac (boo i know but i am a student so cannot afford a new one!) it is a 2009 model, 15" with 8gb memory
It works fine until a point where it randomly switches itself off! I can be watching something, on photoshop, on iphoto or anything really and it just powers off.
I have found lots of threads saying the same except my mac switches itself back on automatically afterwards.
I have had the fans and filters cleaned and checked. It does not overheat (i have a cooling thing it rests on) and i dont have it working for hours on end before it does this, sometimes it will only be within 1o minutes of me turning it on!!!
Please help!
is anyone able to shed some light?
Also, i hope this problem is solvable personally because i dont have any warranty!

I am trying to send an email. The contact is not in my list of Yahoo contacts. It is in iCloud, but not in Yahoo. My iCloud Contacts had way more contacts, so I turned off contacts on my IPad and deleted them. I turned it back on and they were supposed to Sync.
Please Help Me....No. Change the passwords for all acounts used on the iPod.

My Outlook/iCloud calendar invites to others appear to work on my end and sync with my PC and mobile, but when other people "accept" the invite, it will not populate/add in to their calendar. How can I fix this without turning off iCloud?
I am at a new office that uses Outlook (not Outlook Exchange) which does not sync with my mobile... I just got iCloud set up on my PC to sync my contacts, calendar, reminders, etc... The sync worked (not without flaws, but the other issues seem solvable... I think), so that i can now see all my appointments on both my phone and on my PC. The problem I am having is that iCloud moved all of my calendar items from Outlook into iCloud calendar and now when I send out meeting/calendar invites the recipients may accept them, but the meeting does not get added to their calendar. This is a huge problem and may mean that i need to turn off iCloud.
Does anyone know how to fix this?
Thanks!I am replying to my own post here as I seem to have fixed the problem.
I do have some calendars that are shared. Some of those are shared with users who have time zone support turned on. So i activated time zone support on my iphone, then deleted my icloud subscription. I then signed in to icloud again and voila... problem solved.
It is a weird one as the other calendar views were always fine and when you opened an event that appeared in the wrong day (on list view), the correct date of the event was shown in the information...
one more bug in a complicated system I guess -

Your install disk must look like this

We have two apple ID's and two libraries. My daughter's iPOD is syncing with my library and we really want to go to just one library--Mine for ease and we can't figure out how to do it. Please help!!!
Apple does not transfer content bought with one Apple ID to another Apple ID. Apple will not merge two Apple IDs.
If most of your content was bought with the Yahoo! Apple ID but you now want the Gmail address for your Apple ID, the trick will be to change the address used for the Yahoo ID with the Gmail address. However, to do that you must first free the Gmail address from that other Apple ID. Use the instructions from Apple to substitute another address that is not used as an Apple ID for your Gmail address in the Apple ID with the Gmail address. Then, when the Gmail address is no longer used in an Apple ID, you can use the same instructions to substitute the Gmail address for the Yahoo address in the Apple ID with the Yahoo address.

Remote App on iPad connects but drops after about 20 mins. Need to turn off wait about 1 minute, then turn on wifi on iMac before it can reconnect. Need some help please.
Already gone through troubleshooting guide a zillion times. Thanks.This worked for me... A little time consuming but once you get rolling it goes GREAT... Thanks....
I got my artwork and saved it to my Desktop
Opened up Microsoft Paint and clicked on "File" and "Open" and found it to get it on the screen to resize it
Clicked "resize" and a box for changing it opened up
Checked the box "Pixels" and "Unchecked maintain aspect ratio"
Set Horizontal for 640 and Vertical for 480
Clicked on "OK" and went back to "File" and did a "Save As" and chose JPEG Picture
It came up "File Already Existed" and clicked "OK" (really did not care about the original artwork I found because wrong size)
Went to iTunes and on the movie right clicked on "Get Info", clicked on "Details", then "Artwork"
Go to the little box on the top left that shows your old artwork and click on it to get the little blue border to appear around it and hit "Delete" to make it gone
Click on "Add Artwork" and find it where you put the one from above on your Desktop and hit "Open" and OK and your new artwork is now there and all good.
Sounds like a lot of steps to follow but after around 5 or so you will fly through it. This worked perfect on my iPhone 6 Plus and I have artwork on my Home Videos now. -
What a ding dong, I put my entire question in the subject line. First time user, sorry. My husband purchased desk top Mac, and without importing anything via USB cord, it automatically is picking up my itunes library. He closed out, and signed in with his user id and password, and it still will only pick up mine. Someone told me it is because I have turned on "share wifi" in my itunes account, and need to turn that off first, but cannot figure out how to do it. Any suggestions?
You either have an incredibly complex computer setup or I think you are confusing terminology here. If you have iTunes set to share your library with others in your iTunes preferences then other computers in the area will see it as an item when they are running their iTunes and have it set to check for shared libraries. Your husband is probably seeing this when running iTunes on his computer. You can disable this sharing on your computer and/or he can set his not to pick up shared libraries.
By the way, an iTunes account is something you log into when you want to buy something from Apple. On your computer it is simply your iTunes collection or your iTunes application. So you need to turn off sharing in your iTunes application preferences.
Your husband is seeing "his" iTunes collection when running iTunes, but it is possible he doesn't have anything in it if it is a brand new computer. -
I have signed to up to iCloud and am pretty sure that all of my settings are turned on appropriately. However I get syncing from iCloud to my iMac and to my iPhone, but I am unable to get my iPhone to sync with the iCloud and most obviously calendar events, so that if adding an event on my iPone it never appears on my other hardware? Can anyone help me sort this out?
Re: check that the appointments in my phone are going into iCloud calendars....exactly how do I do this? I fear this is a really stupid question!
My iCloud account is set up with my Apple ID as one email account (for example [email protected]) which is the email account I use to sign up for internet sites like Amazon, Apple,etc, so that I can differentiate vendors/mass emails. But my default calendar on my iPhone is in a different email name (ie [email protected]) which I use for most communications to friends, relatives, etc. and it is this account that holds most of my appointments. To further complicate things I have other email accounts that I use for business/professional and community work. If I want all my calendars to show on my iPhone AND sync to my iCloud, do I set this at the phone level or the iCloud level? or both?
Let me clarify....It looks like if I go into appointments that I previously set up through my personal account (ie above [email protected]) and edit the entry on my iPhone, selecting the iCloud "home" calendar within the entry, it will then sync to my iCloud account, no problem....do I have to do this to EVERY entry I have? or is there a way to name my personal account as one to sync to iCloud?
