Sync from iPhone to iMac

Just bought an iMac today and want to sync the stuff on my iPhone to the iMac. Everything seems to indicate you can only sync from the iMac to the iPhone. Is there a way to move the iPhone information onto the iMac? Thanks.

Hi, I also use an APP called-> dropcopy -> very useful between iPhone & Mac..

Iphoto won't start ( activly ) when i trying to sync from iphone to imac

iphoto starts only on background when i want to charge and sync my iphone to the imac and if you click f3 it appears but if you click import al iphoto disappears again to the background so i can't upload fotos

Yes, I'm running ESET NOD32. I've disabled NOD temporarily but it still hangs on Calanders when syncing! Any ideas?
Many thanks. There's a couple of alternatives.
Either try the procedure in Samoreen's post:
Re: iTunes 11.1.4.62 freezes while syncing with Outlook
Or, see if you can get hold of the Eset beta addressing the problem. As Samoreen notes in another post:
ESET have a workaround for this issue. They gave me access to a test version of the HIPS module and this fixed the problem. So I could re-enable the ESET_OPTIONS environment variable (although I still consider that it's a questionable idea). I upgraded to iTunes 11.1.5.5 and there was no problem.
So maybe you should get in touch with ESET support and request the new module ? Just send a message to Marcos in the ESET forum.

Contacts wont sync from iphone to imac

iPhone 4/os5 , imac/OS10.6.8, itunes10.5.1
I am not using mobile me, but prefer to sync manually over the hard wire. Calendars, music and mail are fine. (Mail is over 3G) Data and contacts added on phone do not appear on iMac/main computer. This has not always been aproblem, but has been for past 6- 12 months. I am not really willing to wipe out all contacts on eithe computer, as I update both ways-- I just want the most recent changes to win, no matter where they were added. Isn't this the point of synced devices?
iMac is the 'mother' computer in a house full of networked devices, but won't take new information in from contacts. I know this issue has been bouncing around, but haven't seen aclear answer to my version of it. any tips ?

My calendar is one day out when synced from iPhone to imac

I have an iPhone 5s. I have just bought an iMac 21.5inch.
When I connected my iPhone to the iMac to sync it, the calendar events all came over, but they are one day behind.
I am very new to iMac.
If anyone has a suggestion - I would really appreciate it.
Thanks

Hi ellie,
Welcome to the Support Communities! If your iPhone's calendar events are one day behind when synced to your iMac, check the date and time settings on both devices. Here's how:
iOS: Troubleshooting issues with date and time - Apple Support
http://support.apple.com/en-is/HT203483
Ensure that the version of iOS on your device is up to date.
If the option to enable date and time automatically is available, turn it on. Tap Settings > General > Date & Time.
Ensure that your time zone is set up correctly. Tap Settings > General > Date & Time > Time Zone.
If the incorrect date, time, or time zone is being set up automatically on the device, please notify your cellular provider. In the meantime, tap General > Date & Time and turn off Set Automatically. Then set the appropriate time and time zone manually.
Note: The option to set automatically might not be available on all carriers in all countries.

Note: If you find that your device's time is incorrect after you sync with your computer, your computer's time may be incorrect. Verify the computer's time in System Preferences > Date & Time (you may want to select the checkbox to set the computer's date and time automatically).
Hope you are enjoying the holidays ...

Contacts no longer syncing from iphone to imac

If I create a new contact, or change an existing one, on my iPhone, it does not show up in Contacts on my iMac. Have I missed some critical iCloud setting?

Check that your phone and your imac are both signed into the same iCloud account. Check that Contacts are switched on, check that you are entering new contacts into the iCloud account (on your phone)
Go to www.icloud.com and enter a new contact, check that the new contact appears on your phone.

I am having trouble moving content from my phone to my computer. (ie. when I sync calendars only information entered on the mac moves to the phone but not visa versa). Is there a way to merge information from both devices?

Try resetting the sync history or sync services on your Mac.

HT1414 If ive synced everything from iphone to iMac where do i find it now on the imac

If ive synced everything from iphone to iMac where do i find it now on the imac

Define "everything"...
Contacts will be in whatever Contacts on your Mac assuming you actually selected that in iTunes. Calendar items in iCal. Reminders/Notes depend on what version of OS X you're running...

The CardMunch app is optimized for iOS devices such as your iPhone and iPad, not Mac OS X.
Two different operating systems.
If you want to sync Contacts to both the iPhone and iPad and your Mac, use iCloud.

How do I transfer my iTunes songs from iPhone to iMac air

how do i transfer music from iPhone to iMac air

Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was planned with you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself independently backed up against loss. To use a device with a new computer you transfer the content from the old computer (or its backup) directly to the new computer, not the device to the new computer. Syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchases which can be transferred to a computer. iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only purchases from iTunes Store For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software.

HT5043 how to download my photos from iPhone to iMac

how to download my photos from iPhone to iMac?

1 - have a bit of patience - 1 minute is not really a long time
2 - since you provide absolutely no information only guesses can be made -- the best way is PhotoStream - other ways including connecting your iPhone and syncing using iTune or importing

You need OSX 10.7.2 or higher in order to access icloud. The mobile me account is now defunct (it closed down more than a year ago).

I'd like to use video from iPhone to iMac using airplay

Hi!
Sometimes I watch interner video on my iPhone 5.
Please help me to understand the following:
IS IT POSSIBLR TO WATCH THE SAME VIEOS USING AIRPLAY FROM IPHONE TO IMAC?
Thanks in advance

Not by design though I think there are 3rd party apps that may allow this.
For example:

Never tried it - there may be a demo - let us know if it works.

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.
