Sync documents between iPad and MacBook

I want to be able to edit Pages documents on my iPad and MacBook, and have sync from one to the other. I'm no having success with either the iCloud or Dropbox. When I make changes on the iPad, they don't seem to get reflected on the MacBook. Any suggestions?

I believe that Pages on the Mac does not support iCloud yet.

  • OS X Yosemite Pages sync problem between iPad and Macbook

    I have updated my Macbook on OS X Yosemite. After update I getting problem in sync between iPad pages and iCloud.
    Pages do not get sync automatically, temporary solution. I have to make sure that Macbook Pages connected to internet. After that I need to open my files on pages and have to do some fake changes like do some space. Pages again upload files from iPad and than I got updated files on my macbook.
    iPad pages upload files correctly, I can confirm this because I do login in iCloud through web browser than I get files updated.
    So this is the problem from macbook side (i.e. OS X Yosemite) not picking synced files from iCloud.

  • How do i sync emails between iPad and Macbook Pro

    I have the iiPad2 with WiFi. I remember that I used iSync in the past between my Macbook and desktop unit. I also am signed up with me.com. Can anybody please advise me what's the best way to sync my emails? I use Apple's mail program. Thanks.

    iSync has never synced email or anything between Macs.
    To sync email you need to set your account up as IMAP (not POP3) on your iPad and Mac.
    If you are using your MobileMe email address and have configured your MobileMe account on both Mac and iPad, then your email is automatically in sync.

  • Problems with Syncing Mail between iPad and MacBook

    The mail between my iPod Touch and MacBook used to sync themselves perfectly. If I got a piece of mail on one device and looked at it or deleted it, it wouldn't show up on the other device. It was like both devices could access the same mailbox and not confuse messages with one another. I loved that!!
    This is not the case with my iPad. I'll get a piece of mail on my iPad, open it and/or archive it, and then it'll show up on my MacBook's mail as a brand new, unopened message...
    How can I fix this? Surely there must be some sort of solution...
    If it matters, this is a GMail account, and I'm using an iPad 2 (16 GB, WiFi)

    I think i have found how to solve the problem. I went into address book preferences and i noticed i didn't have icloud enabled here. As long as i use icloud contacts rather than 'on my mac' contacts it now seems to delete and add across the 2 devices. Many thanks

  • How do you sync calendars between iPad and MacBook Pro running Maverick

    I had no problem syncing my iPad with my MacBook Pro before upgrading to Maverick.  Now I just keep going round in circles.  It's such a basic requirement to be able to sync calendars, but just so problematic.

  • Pages won't sync between iPad and Macbook

    I cannot get my pages to sync between iPad and Macbook.
    I regularly go back and forth between the two because it's easier to read/edit on iPad and easier to type/copy-paste web info on Macbook.
    I'm finding right now that I have done a multitude of edits on my iPad that are not showing up at all when I open the same document on my Macbook.
    I have closed the document on my iPad so I expected there to be no problems when I opened it on my Macbook.
    Not sure why or what to do....?

    I had this issue too - I have been playing around with it for a few days - turns out you need to save the documents on your mac not under "documents" but rather under "Pages - iCloud" (or "Keynote - iCloud" etc.). After doing this, the document appears on my phone, iPad, iCloud.com etc. with the changes.
    One way to do this is by clicking the dropdown arrow (it shows up when you mouse over the title) to the right of the title of your document on the grey title bar (the thing at the top of the page - above insert, table, chart etc.) and then editing the "where" column.
    Hope this helps! If it isn't clear enough, please let me know!

  • Syncing notes between iPad and a MacBook with Lion OSX

    I cannot sync notes manually between iPad and MacBook - I could do that with Snow Leopard by creating a subfolder in Notes and keeping my Notes in that subfolder.  This doesn't work with Lion OSx - any ideas out there

    I would prefer MobileMe but have not been able to use that to sync notes.  So - I use itunes and check "Sync notes" under Other in the Info tab

  • Pages and Numbers not sync between ipad and macbook pro. icloud problem?

    My Pages and Numbers are stopped synchronizing via icloud between ipad and macbook pro. Everytime I edit something to Pages or Numbers on my ipad, my ipad failed to upload the edited version to icloud. what happened?

    I have a slightly different problem with Numbers and Pages failing to sync between a Macbook and iPad via iCloud. I have checked all the obvious settings. I think the problem may be that the Macbook username is my email address, whereas the iPad username is my wife's email address. However, both addresses are named alibis for exactly the same email address from our internet provider – eg we get the same emails, despite appearing to have different addresses. So I don't understand why the iPad cannot pick up Numbers or Pages files that have been opened and saved in iCloud on my Macbook. Other apps, such as iCal, sync perfectly, but i guess they don't use iCloud. Any help appreciated!
    (We have tried emailing Numbers files to the iPad, but that is very slow and innefective.)

    How do I synch calendars between iPad and MacBook Pro?

    Thank you for your help. However, I still have no connection; could it be that the laptop is signed in through my account and the iPad through my wife's?
    If so, must I delete her iCloud account and reestablish it as mine?
    Thank you

  • How do you sync the iPhone, iPad and MacBook calendar in one calendar.

    How do you sync the iPhone, iPad and MacBook calendar in one calendar?

    Iphone 5 seems unable to sync calendars with ITunes! The genius bar set mine to sync via Icloud, but it only worked once (?). 
    Finally I fixed it like this.
    First, I merged the multiple calendars from ICal thanks to http://www.maclife.com/article/howtos/how_merge_ical_calendars and I called it “only.”
    Second, I unchecked the gmail calendar (seems iCloud had a problem with it): On the Iphone, open the calendar, go to the bottom of the page, click on calendars and uncheck the gmail calendar. Click Done.
    Third, every time I want to sync, I go to the Iphone  Settings, iCloud, and uncheck calendars. I respond “keep on my Iphone”. Then, check calendars on again, click merge, and.… voila!

  • Is it possible to sync numbers between iPad and iPhone and mac

    Is it possible to sync Numbers between iPhone and iPad and IMac.  I work in a school and want to keep test scores for my class in the one place without having to manually update the spreadsheets each time I enter scores.
    Thanks in advance
    Conor 

    Yes, Numbers syncs (very well) via iCloud.  You need to activate Numbers iCloud sync on all of your devices.
    On the Mac, go to System Preferences > iCloud and make sure Documents & Data is checked.  Also click the Options... button next to Documents & Data and check Numbers.app.
    On each iOS device, go to Settings > iCloud > Documents & Data > and turn on Numbers. Also go to Settings > Numbers and turn on Use iCloud.
    After you've got things working, it's best to close down the Numbers document on one device before you use it on another.
