Sync from iPhone to iCal

My iPhone won't sync with iCal on my MacBook Air. I don't know how long it has been going on. I can see that there's some old discussions about this topic, but none of the solutions worked for me. So I really hope that some of you could help me..?

1. got the back up done. After I answer your couple of quesitons, i will do the reset.
2. I am responding to you using my .mac account, which, as you know, is IMAP.
3. In addition, I do have a POP ( Yahoo) account that I use a great deal. I use the Mac Mail application to grab the Yahoo e mails for me, as I thought that would be the easiest set up. ( Just launch Mail and every e mail is available for viewing). I suspect you are going to advise me to take the steps to turn my POP Yahoo into an IMAP Yahoo???.
4. So I think I may have answered you question about accessing this account with an email client, right? I am using Mail.
5. Thanks for the thought on the incoming e mail server. Good to know.
6. My Mac account settings for removing messages from the server when downloaded by the email client ( Mail?) are: (1) for the Yahoo - I looked under Accounts/Advanced. And, if that is the right place, hopefully, I have set it to remove copy from server after retrieving a message after 1 month. ( just being careful). (2) I do not see choices for my .mac IMAP account, except under Trash, and for that I have also chosen 1 month before permanently removing.
How'd I do?? I want to answer your questions as specifically and succinctly as possible. Your assistance is much appreciated.

  • Sync from iPhone to iCal on MacBook has failed since the latest iPhone upgrade, yesterday.  It's worked in reverse, and all other sync operations appear to have worked.  Any solutions, that I may not have already tried (over and over)

    (Sorry, first time user of these forums, and it's confusing in it's own right)

    You may have to try deleting all the music from your phone (by going to Settings>General>Usage>Music, swipping All Music and tapping Delete), then sync it all back on with iTunes in order to fix this.

  • Calendar will not sync from iphone to ical since 10.5.2 update

    My iphone has worked perfectly since I bought it last summer & I have been raving about it!
    I updated to 10.5.2 and now I am having a syncing problem.
    If I put an appointment in the iphone it will not sync to ical, but it does sync from ical to the iphone.
    This is all new since 10.5.2.
    Are there some simple steps to follow to resolve this issue?

  • Syncing from iphone to ical doesn't work

    In my syncing trials, I can't seem to figure out why my Calendar on my iPhone won't sync with my iCal or MobileMe.
    My Google calendar syncs fine as well as iCal to MobileMe. There's something going with the process between the phone & computer.
    Does anyone have a solution?

    I upgraded to IOS 7.0.3, OSX 10.9 and itunes 11.1.2-
    It does still not work.
    The good news is, that this now  is not a bug anymore, now it is a feature.  Thanks a lot.
    I want local sync and therefore have to look for other products.

  • Import from iPhone to iCal shifted by one hour

    I have recently synced iPhone through iTunes, and my appointments imported from iPhone to iCal are all shifted by one hour. Example, on iPhone, an event is scheduled for 4:30 PM, and the same event in iCal is listed at 3:30PM. The event was first entered on iPhone, and then appeared in iCal after Syncing in iTunes.
    How can I import from iPhone to iCal without this discrepancy?

    Jeff,
    Welcome to Apple Discussions.
    Use the procedure listed in: MobileMe: How to reset sync data.
    Use the procedure listed under: "To reset your MobileMe Sync data in Mac OS X 10.4.11"
    In step #5 be sure to select the option that allows you to replace the information on your computer with the information from MobileMe.

  • Uk - ical-problems syncing from phone to ical

    hi all - my calendars sync fine from ical to iphone but there's nothing happening from iphone to ical
    i have searched the forums and tried many of the suggestions including resetting sync history but it has not worked
    any ideas?
    cheers dc/uk

    The problem is your iPhone 3GS is using iOS 4.3.3 and the Verizon iPhone 4 can only use iOS 4.2.8 at present.  I don't know a simple solution other than waiting for iOS 5 which should be the same for GSM and CDMA iPhones.
    If you can't wait and you still have your iPhone 3GS, you can use a utility like Touchcopy to retrieve your data to your computer.  http://www.wideanglesoftware.com/touchcopy/index.php?gclid=CL2oyvOe_akCFROAgwodb Ai3xg
    If you don't have access to your 3GS,you can use a utility like Backup Extractor to retrieve data from the backup file. http://www.iphonebackupextractor.com/

  • Sync from iPhone 3G to iTunes - not working, bug?

    I am trying to restore my music from my iphone 3G to my new PC and iTunes. But every time i select sync Music, iTunes says it will delete all music on my iPhone and replace with nothing. Anyone got any ideas when this bug will be fixed? Or is it just a wrongly worded function, so NOT sync, but copy, and only in one direction? Very confused why iTunes would lack such basic functions...

    Thank you for your reply. I understand that it's not a backup device, but I don't understand why such a simple and helpful feature is so hard to achieve? The only reason I can see is, after reading up on this 'bug', is that you are quite right, they don't want you to use it as a backup device, UNLESS, if you spent all your money with Apple and iTunes, because then you CAN sync from iPhone to iTunes. So much for "All you music in one place (but only music Apple made money from)"... Now I have to buy some third party software to copy it all back. Absolute rubbish again from Apple.

  • Can't sync from iPhone to pc...

    Hi
    I want to sync iPhone 4s songs to iTunes in pc. Every time I delete a song in iPhone and sync with iTunes, the song gets copied back to the phone. I guess the sync works only from pc to iPhone.
    Is there a way to sync from iPhone to pc.? 
    Thanks

    No you can only syn cform itunes to the phone not hte other way around

  • Can you sync from iPhone to PC?

    Can you sync from iPhone 3GS to PC, instead of the other way 'round?

    The syncing of iTunes content is a one way transfer process only - from iTunes on your computer, or from your iPhone to your iTunes library on your computer the first time you sync your iPhone with iTunes after purchasing/downloading music, video, or 3rd party apps with your iPhone.
    iTunes content is not kept synchronized but is part of the iTunes sync/transfer process. Photos transferred from your compute to your iPhone via the iTunes sync/transfer process are not kept synchronized either. The transfer of photos is a one way transfer process only - from your computer to your iPhone.
    The only bi-directional or true sync process is for contacts, calendar events, and Safari bookmarks with the supported applications on your computer. The same for notes if you are using a supported application on your computer for syncing notes.
    In regards to iTunes content, an iPhone can be synced with an iTunes library on a single computer only, and photos can be transferred from a single computer only. When transferring iTunes content and photos from another computer, all iTunes content and photos transferred from a different computer will be erased from the iPhone first. You can sync contacts, calendar events, and Safari bookmarks with the supported applications on multiple computers.
    You need to transfer your iTunes library from your old computer to your new computer along with all other important data that you will need or want to access on your new computer such as photos, documents, etc. All iTunes content is stored in an iTunes named folder. With iTunes quit on your new computer, place the copy of the iTunes named folder from your old computer in the appropriate location for access by iTunes on your new computer. You will also need to authorize your new computer with your iTunes account with iTunes if you haven't already done so.
    iTunes includes an option to transfer iTunes content that was purchased/downloaded from the iTunes store from an iPod or iPhone, but this is for iTunes content that was purchased/downloaded from the iTunes store only. First you need to authorize your computer with your iTunes account with iTunes. With your iPhone connected to iTunes and without syncing, at the iTunes menu bar go to File and select Transfer Purchases From - the name of your iPhone.
    The iPhone is not designed or intended to be used as a backup storage device or as a storage device to transfer data from one computer to another.

  • ICal sync from iPhone 3G no longer works with both MacBooks?

    Hi Group:
    I've got an iPhone 3G, a previous gen MBP and a white MB, all running the latest software updates. For the past several months I have been able to enter iCal events on my MBP, sync to the iPhone using iTunes, and then sync the iPhone to the MB. For some reason I can't guess, that no longer works, and iCal events are not being transferred from the iPhone to my MB iCal app. Did this happen with the iPhone 3.0 software update (the timing seems about right)? I called Apple Care last night and they said only a .Me account would return that functionality, but denied this had anything to do with the iPhone 3.0 update. In fact, the rep said it never should have worked in the first place.
    FWIW, here's the error messasge iTunes generates:
    "iTunes could not sync calendar events to the iPhone because an error occurred while sending data from the iPhone."
    That's the exact wording, and it doesn't really make perfect sense, either. So, is there a workaround for this, or a third-party app, perhaps? Did Apple make this change just to sell more .Me accounts? Finally, is there maybe an automated way to sync the iCal events between the MBP and MB across my Time Capsule network? Thanks in advance for any ideas.
    Dean

    ****, that was a brilliant solution. To be clear, what was happening is that I could no longer sync calendars from the iPhone to the MB, but never lost that ability on the MBP. I would not have guessed your solution, as I've never even opened the iSync app, and had no idea it was in any way involved. Thanks, and I wonder if there's some way Apple could add this solution to their database for the Apple Care reps?

  • Syncing from Iphone Reminders to Ical?

    Is it possible to sync between Iphone Reminders and Ical or other app on Mac?

  • Calandars don't sync from iphone to MM or ical

    My iphone MM account has stopped syncing with the calandars only. The mail, contacts etc all ok. I have lots of entries only on the iphone so I dont what to reset it. I have tried a sync from itunes it backs up OK and restores OK, but still no sync with MM.
    Thanks

    Syncing an existing app on iTunes to a different device is like adding it new to that device.
    You must enter-configure your specific info.

  • Triangulating iCal sync from iPhone to OS 10.6.8 MacBook (no iCloud)

    If I sync my iPhone calendar to iCloud, then connect my iPhone to Macbook (OS 10.6.8) via USB, why don't the calendars sync?  That is, why wouldn't the calendar data on my iPhone "upload" to my MacBook via USB?

    Grant,

  • Why is contact sync from iphone or ipad to local iMac address book gone?

    An option for syncing contacts from iphone or ipad to iMac seems to be gone.  From searching other posts on this topic, I see where contact sync is now "through iCloud" but is this the EXCLUSIVE choice for syncing contacts?  In other words, there is no longer any sync of contacts NOT through iCloud; I cannot sync contacts from my iPhone to my iMac without it all being stored in the cloud.
    This is absurd.  My iCloud was hacked (not a password issue on my iMac or any local trojan/etc there are support threads about this) and tons of spam sent to my contacts when I used to sync through the cloud.  I turned off iCloud sync for contacts and opted instead to sync from phone to mac and from iPad to mac and this was working just fine, keeping me nice and updated every day no matter where I modified any contacts.
    Now it seems that is no longer possible.  Is this by design?  Why on earth was this removed?  Is it a "feature" of these new products to remove working sync methods and force everything through the cloud??

    The ability to sync contacts, calendar and browser bookmarks directly from a Mac running Mavericks to an IOS device via USB or WiFi has indeed been removed. Synching through iCloud, Exchange, WebDAV or a similar cloud service is the only option now. You can comment to Apple in this issue via their feedback page, if you wish:
