  • Messages not working between devices

    Previous to 5 months ago, I had never had any problems with my iMessages working between my iPhone 5s, Macbook Pro, and iPad Mini. Now, no matter war I do I can not get my messages to work with my iPad or Macbook anymore. On the Macbook Messages app it says that my contacts are not registered with iMessage which is just not true. At one point a few months ago it randomly started working and I got all my previous messages on my Mac but after that it went back to the same problem.
    Please help!! I am very frustrated with this.

    Hi,
    Boot into Safe Mode and try your iMessages account there.
    Either if it works or does not work reboot the computer for  normal Start.
    If it did  not work hold down the ALT+CMD+P+R buttons until you here three Start up "Bongs" in total.  (PRAM/NVRAM reset)
    If that does not appear to work check the way your Contacts App is syncing to all the other devices
    Make sure in  Preferences > Accounts only one method is being used to Sync them.
    After that double check all the setting on the Mac and the Phone in particular.
    Forget what you think is set and actually check them off.
    On the Mac in the iMessages account is the iPhone Number actually active for "Receive At" ?
    On the iPhone despite the fact it should be un-alterable is the iPhone Number active  (I have had this one - the Apple ID was still active but the iPhone was not getting iMessages sent to the Number - but was displaying the sync to the Apple ID)
    The same applies also for the Apple ID itself.

  • Sync is not working between windows 7 and windows 8.1

    I have desktop windows7, laptop windows 7 and tablet windows 8.1.
    I installed later 2 last spring. At that time somehow, I managed to sync all 3 devices. (So, all had same bookmarks)
    Now sync works both windows 7 devices very well, but tablet windows 8.1 never sync anymore. Eventually bookmarks are rather different from other 2 devices.
    I tried to fix it, uninstalled / reinstalled firefox on tablet windows8.1, still it's not working.
    All 3 device have latest 37.0.1.
    Is there any way to sync all 3 devices?

    I am getting to know the first part:

  • Syncing contacts not working

    I use address book on my Mac, however when I try to sync contacts on my iphone it doesn't take into account changes made in address book, and now that I look the two contacts look quite different. Then I did the option of syncing over ' replacing iphone contacts, but this had no effect. I've restored as well, but nothing works. This is definately not my first issue with contacts.
    Any ideas?

    I'm having the same problem. I did so many changes on my 3G iPhone and then synced it to iTunes on my iMac computer at another home and realized when I was on the road that all of my edited work did not sync or merge. Now what do I do? I have no idea what to do. I checked my mobileme address book and none of the changes are there either. For some reason, iTunes acted like this was the first time I synced and backed up iPhone and it took forever. It also got stuck in Verifying which calendar event was correct. Where are the backup files kept for the iPhone? Thx

  • Document sync is not working between my Macs

    I use several Macs. One year ago Document syncing seem to work perfekt. Then it stopped so i deactivated it and used wuala.com for syncing.
    Now i want to retry to set it up. So i chooses my iMac and MacBook Pro to start first with again. I checked the appropriate checkbox in Systems Preferences. Without success. Documents put into my Homefolder's Document Folder dont get synced.
    Does someone has a hint?

    iCloud doesn't work that way - it does not sync files in your home folder's document folder.
    What kind of files are you trying to sync?  Only files that are associated with a program that is programmed to sync with icloud can be synced, like Pages and Numbers files.

  • Since upgrading to maverick I have had problems syncing contacts and calendar between devices

    After recent apple support ref:532791559 my macpro will exchange these items between icloud and macpro but now I find I cannot exchange data between my iphone (IOS7) and ipad (IOS7)
    In above apple support created new accounts etc to arrange connection but now I have lost the other two items. All three were working perfectly with icloud before updating. Sorry Apple but this is a blunder!!!

    Hi,
    Thank you for taking an interest in my problem.
    What actually transpired was my Macpro (contacts) would not update after I put changes in to contacts in either iphone or ipad. Apple checked and discovered that changes made in either macPro (contacts) and contacts(cloud.com) did not talk to each other so concentrated on this.
    The rep had me signout of my macpro user account, and create a temp new user to which I signed into my icloud account as normal. Then, changes in either macpro or cloud.com now worked. He then did some changes at his end and after exiting the temp user and resigning in as origal macpro user this now made changes to each other. OK. We then deleted the temp user and this worked! but since then I have discovered that iphone and ipad now do not change icloud.com contacts or calendar so would not of course change contacts on macpro!
    Other services on icloud (photo stream, mail, docs and data, find my ----, etc) all function with my iphone (so have to presume my ipad also, but this is not with me at this time)  so the problem is confined to just contacts and calendar.
    In summary, I do have only one icloud address but which appears to have two sets of data as the devices will communicate with something but not altogether!!
    I am thoroughly confused, especially as it was all fine until I upgraded from M\Lion to Mavericks on my shiny new macpro a few weeks ago. I  had moved from Windows to Apple to avoid just such problems.
    Not enamoured with Apple at the moment, but thank you for your assistance - hope this is a better explanation.
    Kind Regards

  • No longer syncing contacts and calendars between devices

    Since purchasing iPhone 6 and installing all updates in that, iPad, and MacBook Air,  Calendar and Contacts do not sync between the devices and iCloud.  I enter new events and contacts in the computer or one of the others, and that's where they stay.  Previous instructions do not correspond to the options in the current devices.  Please advise.

    Hey missychaz,
    Thanks for the question. I understand that you are experiencing issues with iCloud Calendar. The following resource may provide a solution. All of the information is relevant for iOS 8 (simply follow the instructions titled for iOS 7):

  • The Sync seem not working between my other two computers, one in the spare roon, one in the hall and one in the master bedroom.

    Previous version when I use sync for all these three computers it seem to work fine and also can I install Xmark.

    Hi!
    Before Firefox 7 the service used to take some time to upload the changes and then to download them. Make sure that you wait several hours to confirm that it's not something else.
    You can force them by using the "Sync Now" option in the Tools menu.
    Fortunately, the behavior have changed with Firefox 7 and now the bookmark changes are instant.

  • ICal sharing not working between devices

    that is when this issue began.  Any suggestions?

  • Home Sharing not working between wireless PC's / devices and ethernet wired PC's on the same router.

    Home Sharing is not working between wireless PC's / devices and ethernet wired PC's on the same router.  I installed a new Verizon FIOS ActionTec  MI424WR GigE wireless / ethernet router, replacing the original FIOS router.  With the old router Home Sharing worked fine across and among all iOS and Windows wired and wireless devices.  With the new router Home Sharing works between and among the Wired PC's but not between the wired PC's and the Wireless connected PC's or iOS devices.  Home Sharing also works between and among the wireless connected PC's and iOS decices but not between them and the wired PC's.
    Only the router was changed.  No changes were made to any of the devices except all were updated with the latest version of iTunes 10.7.0.21 and the iSO devices were updated to iOS vrsion 6.01.  Three PC's are wired and all are running Windows 7.  There also is a Windows Home Server connected to the router by ethernet port.  It does not run iTunes but does provide WebDAV services to my iOS devices.  This works fine.  Two PC's are wireless, one running Windows 7 and one running Windows 8.  All of the PC's are connected to the same (new) router via it's ethernet ports and it's wireless access point.  Two of the wired PC's are connected via a high-speed  ethernet hup that is connected to the router (Home Sharing works fine between the two PC's on the hub and the PC on the router).  All wired and wireless devices on the router are visible and members of the router's Home/Office virtual network.
    All of the PC's are visible in the Windows network and all shared files are accessable from all PC's, both wired and wireless.
    Obviously the router seems to be the issue, something between the ethernet and the wireless access point components.  I checked the settings and found nothing that would prevent Home Sharing between the wired and wireless devices.  There is no setting that isolates the wireless network.  I have done the following:
    Read the router user manual and checked all the settings
    Rebooted the router and tested.
    Turned off the router's firewall and tested.
    Home Sharing is turned on all the devices and all use the same Apple ID.
    Restarted iTunes and tested.
    Verified iTunes is "Allowed" in each PC's firewall.
    Again, I can Home Share between the two wireless PC's but not between either of the wireless PC's and any of the wired PC's.  I can Home Share between my iPads and iPhones and either of the two wireless PC's but not with any of the wired PC's.  I can Home Share between any of the wired PC's but not between any wired PC and a wireless PC or iOS device.
    I hope someone may have had a similar problem and has a fix suggestion.  I'm stumped!  I have a;so contacked ActionTec and awaiting an answer.

    Log into your router.

  • Firefox 5.0.1 Sync is not working even after info replaced and device added again.

    No errors were displayed so I followed guidance in articles "Firefox Sync is not working" (Uninstalled Sync add-on, updated Firefox on all devices, and Replaced Sync data) and "Replace your Sync information" which worked to get identical bookmarks on desktop and laptop. I used the desktop data as the sync data and added the laptop as a device. But when I change bookmarks on the laptop the changes do not sync with the desktop. I don't know what else to do.

    Thanks for the suggestion Ibai, but I'm pretty sure I did that and it still didn't work. In my frustration I decided to try XMarks, which is accomplishing my needs, but I'm concerned with this as a long-term solution because it was recently purchased by the "Last Pass" company, which disabled password sync. This is not a huge deal for me because I use 1Password, but I'm worried about XMarks somehow becoming incompatible with 1Password as the Last Pass company moves forward with encouraging people to use their password software instead. Since it is working now I'm hesitant to mess with it anymore. Does that sound reasonable or should I trash the XMarks add-on and reconfigure Firefox sync and make sure I click the Tools->Sync Now drop down to give Firefox sync another try? Pros/Cons?

  • Auto sync is not working. How can I manually transfer music from my macbook pro iTunes to iphone 5?

    Auto sync is not working. How can I manually transfer music from my macbook pro iTunes to iphone 5? My iMatch is turned on and I can direct downlad my music to the iPhone from the Cloud; however, I want to direct import All of my music from iTunes to my iPhone 5 via the connecting USB cable and it is not working. Yes, I have tried restarting both devices, and no autosync is not working nor is is it providing the avaialbile option to select music in iTunes on my Mac to then sync. Please help. Thanks

    Please disregard. I figured it out. Answer for anyone else running into this problem: You have to turn off iTunes Match on both devices. Apparently, if you activate iTunes Match it deactivates your abiltiy to direct sync.

  • Updated my iphone 3gs, lost my music and apps, they are backed up on itunes, how do I move them back to my phone, tried to sync but not working, please help

    Updated my iphone 3gs, lost my music and apps, they are backed up on my computer but i cannot move them over to my phone, tried to sync but not working, please help

    well first make sure that when you click on the name of your iphone on the left hand side of itunes that you go to the app and music tab and check mark the sync apps and sync music. then try clicking apply in the bottom right hand corner. then if not try doing it again after going to prefrences in the top menu and going to devices tab and click reset sync history if that doesnt work with music try and drop and drag to the name of your iphone, lastly if that doesnt work you can try restoring from a backup from before you updated. it will keep the new software but put everything that was on your phone when you created the backup back onto your phone.

  • Sync is not working in Firefox 30

    I've just installed Windows 7 x64 and Firefox 30. I've succesfully logged in with my Sync account but nothing happens. Sync is not working in this device but it does in others. Other devices have also the latest version of Firefox.

    Hi viru,
    Please sign out of Firefox Sync on that device and log in one more time. I understand that you have successfully logged in, but nothing is happening.
    If this is not helping, I would recommend creating a new profile and copying the that in the current profile into a new one. [[Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles]]
    Please post back with your results, it can help other users!
