Sync help for Calendar (iPhone5 & MacBook)

During the Sync process, the new appointments from my iPhone5 won't transfer onto my MacBook Calendar but the new apts. from the MacBook will sync over to the iPhone. How can I correct to enable cross syncing?

That's a pickle. What you need to make sure of is that under default calendars on your iPhone (Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars) you have the calendar from your MacBook selected.

    How do I sync contacts and calendar from macbook pro to ipad2?

    I have the same problem and have not been able to get contacts transferred from my MacBook Pro to my iPad 2.  I have checked "sync contacts", when it does the sync it says it is syncing contacts, but the address book on the iPad remains empty.  I tried checking the box under "advanced" that says to replace the contacts information on the iPad, sync again, same result—an empty address book on the iPad.  Any suggestions?

  • Inconsistences in sync info for Calendars

    I keep getting a "database reset alert" saying " Inconsistencies in your sync inforamtion for Calendars were detected and have been repaired." This window pops up every few minutes now, presumably when iCal refreshes, though I'm not sure.
    How do I get it to stop?
    The ? button reads
    Inconsistencies in your sync information
    Under rare circumstances your sync information on one computer may become damaged and need to be resynchronized to correct inconsistencies.
    After the inconsistencies have been repaired, your next sync may take a little longer that you expect. This is because the computer has to do an initial sync, comparing each record on your computer with records located on other computers or devices.

    This generally means pretty much what it says: that you must replace the data stored on your computer with data stored on the .Mac servers.
    But, here is the issue…
    .Mac Sync has not worked properly for many, if not most, users for almost two weeks not. This is not a great time to be attempting to correct this problem, and I would not attempt to replace the calendar data on your machine with that from .Mac until the ongoing 'maintenance' is completed. You run a serious risk of failing to correct the problem under present circumstances.
    Check the face page of .Mac to determine when the amber Sync LED in the lower left sidebar has changed to green, indicating a restoration of normal service. You can also browse the .Mac Sync forum to determine the status of .Mac synchronization services.

  • Why can't I sync iPod touch calendar with macbook pro any more with latest OS X?

    since most recent software update with my macbook pro, contacts, calendar no longer syncs when I connect ipod touch with macbook pro. hate the cloud and want to stay "old fashioned". how can I?

    If you have Mavericks the only way to sync those items is via iCloud.
    If you use OS X Mavericks v.10.9 or later, your contacts, calendars, and other info are updated on your computers and iOS devices via iCloud. For more information, see iCloud Help at icloud.com.

  • "Merging data" error when syncing iPhone 5s Calendar to MacBook Pro Calendar, using Mountain Lion

    Since a failed attempt to sync data via iCloud (resulting in duplicate entries in Calendar and Contacts, missing data, and other oddities), whenever I try to sync the Calendars via iTunes, I repeatedly get the error message, "iTunes could not sync calendars to the iPhone <name> because an error occurred while merging data." The Contacts sync fine, and the backup runs smoothly. The only discussions I can find in Apple Support are dated 2009 with older systems (I'm using Mountain Lion 10.8.5, iTunes 11.1.5, iOS 7.1.1, but the problem occurred with iOS 7.0 and possibly 6.0 as well). Repairing permissions had no effect. I can't use the option to copy the Mac Calendar to the iPhone because new data are entered into the iPhone. Would appreciate guidance. I'm trying to avoid iCloud but if I have to go there to fix this, guidance for that would also be welcome.

    I have iPhone 5 with iOS 6.1.4 and iMac with Mavericks 10.9.3 and iTunes 11.2.1.
    I also got this error when I tried to sync iPhone with iMac (after a year when Apple disabled local USB cabel sync in Mavericks - thanks Apple for re-enabling it!).
    I tried a number of things to no avail. Finally I tried three things - and hurraaa, can sync now! Unfortunatelly I didn't test sync among these three steps - so don't know which one fixed it - up to you to try. My guess is that it was the 3rd step, actually
    Step 1: On my iPhone I opened Calendar and tap "Calendars" (top left). I have 7 items on the list (2 email accounts, Calendar, Home, Work, Reminders, Birthdays). Most of the calendar entries were in my Home calendar, only a few were in Work or Birthdays. I moved all of them to Home. I also checked whether there aren't any items without content.
    Step 2: On the list of Calendars I had one custom item (Birthday in my local language). This item had only one entry in it. I deleted both the single entry and the custom item as a whole - so I left the default categories only.
    Step 3: At the top of the list of Calendars there is an item "All from My Mac". I tapped this and thus enabled all of my calendar categories. Now the sync worked like a charm!
    I actually noticed that when I synced, iTunes automatically checked all items under "Sync Calendars - Selected Calendars". Even if I manually deselected all except the "Home" calendar, as soon as I started to sync, iTunes checked all items automatically. This led me to thinking that if I check "All from My Mac" item in my iPhone it might work.
    Good luck with your sync issue, hope you'll solve it.

  • Search help for calendar

    Hi,
    is there in se11 search help which could be join to field at screen and it will show calenadar to help choosing data which will be put to this field?
    Search help or sample of code which allows to show calendar as search help?
    regards,
    Joanna

    use function module
    <b>FU F4_DATE</b>
    Text
    <b>Display factory calendar or Gregor. calendar and choose a day</b>
    see also the parameter documentation (long texts).
    Parameters
    SELECT_DATE
    If the parameter DISPLAY is initial, the date selected by the user is returned in SELECT_DATE.
    If the user did not select a date, SELECT_DATE contains:
    - the value DATE_FOR_FIRST_MONTH, if it was passed as not-initial,
    otherwise
    - the value determined with PROGNAME_FOR_FIRST_MONTH if this
    parameter was used, otherwise
    - the initial value (SPACE).
    It is thus possible for example to assign the corresponding screen field directly to both the (input) parameter DATE_FOR_FIRST_MONTH and the (output) parameter SELECT_DATE when the function module is called.
    SELECT_WEEK
    SELECT_WEEK_BEGIN
    SELECT_WEEK_END
    DISPLAY
    DISPLAY = SPACE (default) -> A date can be selected.
    = X -> Only display, no selection.
    FACTORY_CALENDAR_ID
    The parameters HOLIDAY_CALENDAR_ID, FACTORY_CALENDAR_ID and GREGORIAN_CALENDAR_FLAG define which calendar is displayed.
    If GREGORIAN_CALENDAR_FLAG = 'X', the Gregorian calendar is always displayed, irrespective of FACTORY_CALENDAR_ID and HOLIDAY_CALENDAR_ID.
    If no parameter is set, the factory or holiday calendar is used from local memory. These can be set (and reset) with the function module CALENDAR_FOR_F4_DATE.
    Remarks:
    (1) If GREGORIAN_CALENDAR_FLAG = 'X' was passed, the Gregorian calendar is always displayed, irrespective of FACTORY_CALENDAR_ID and HOLIDAY_CALENDAR_ID.
    (2) The Gregorian calendar is also displayed if no calendar was set explicitly or by calling CALENDAR_FOR_F4_DATE.
    (3) If both HOLIDAY_CALENDAR_ID and FACTORY_CALENDAR_ID were passed, the function module reacts with an exception.
    PROGNAME_FOR_FIRST_MONTH
    If no DATE_FOR_FIRST_MONTH was passed, but a program name was passed with parameter PROGNAME_FOR_FIRST_MONTH, the function module determines the month to be displayed using the contents of the field to which the cursor is pointing.
    DATE_FOR_FIRST_MONTH
    If a date is passed in DATE_FOR_FIRST_MONTH, the month containing this date is first displayed.
    If parameter DATE_FOR_FIRST_MONTH is not passed or is initial, the first month displayed with PROGNAME_FOR_FIRST_MONTH (if passed) or the date is determined.
    GREGORIAN_CALENDAR_FLAG
    GREGORIAN_CALENDAR_FLAG = 'X'
    -> Display the Gregorian calendar: Saturdays and Sundays are highlighted.
    GREGORIAN_CALENDAR_FLAG = SPACE (default)
    -> Determine the factory calendar with the parameter FACTORY_CALENDAR_ID or from local memory.
    HOLIDAY_CALENDAR_ID
    The parameters HOLIDAY_CALENDAR_ID, FACTORY_CALENDAR_ID and GREGORIAN_CALENDAR_FLAG define which calendar is displayed.
    If no parameter is set, the factory or holiday calendar is used from local memory.
    These can be set (or reset) with the function module CALENDAR_FOR_F4_DATE.
    Remarks:
    (1) If GREGORIAN_CALENDAR_FLAG = 'X' was passed, the Gregorian calendar is always displayed, irrespective of FACTORY_CALENDAR_ID and HOLIDAY_CALENDAR_ID.
    (2) The Gregorian calendar is also displayed if no calendar was set explicitly or by calling CALENDAR_FOR_F4_DATE.
    (3) If both HOLIDAY_CALENDAR_ID and FACTORY_CALENDAR_ID were passed, the function module reacts with an exception.
    Exceptions
    HOLIDAY_CALENDAR_NOT_FOUND
    PARAMETER_CONFLICT
    DATE_INVALID
    CALENDAR_BUFFER_NOT_LOADABLE
    DATE_AFTER_RANGE
    DATE_BEFORE_RANGE
    FACTORY_CALENDAR_NOT_FOUND

  • Need Help for New Purchase - Macbook Pro 8gb & express slot

    Hello All,
    I needed some advise or rather clarification on a new purchase of a Macbook Pro.
    I became a bit disheartened ever since the new Macbook Pros replaced the express slot with the SD card reader.
    I want a 15" Macbook Pro , with 8gb of expandable ram (Or at least have the option) , 512 video - graphics memory , & the express slot.
    I DO NOT WANT the 17' because it becomes too bulky.
    Here is what i was looking at: (15" macbook pro - 2.93ghz core 2 duo, 512 video, express slot, 4gb ram, etc) -$1,949 - Basically the model just prior to the new line with the express slot instead of the card reader.
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/G0GR3LL/A?mco=MjE0NDk5Mw
    In this description , it states that the ram is limited to 4gb , but i find that hard to believe, seeing as how the previous model (early 2009) allowed for upto 8gb of ram i believe.
    Secondly, the link below (toward the bottom) outlines that the Macbook Pro, depending on the processor (2.66 or above) , do allow for 8gb or ram.
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MacBook_Pro
    I have gotten mixed information, and needed to clarify before i make this large investment.
    Any advise that can be offered would be a big help.
    Thank you.
    -Parag

    I saw your post and thought I could definitely help ya out on some of your questions.
    First of all, yes - All the latest MBP's support up to 8GB RAM. (I'd recommend buying the RAM at "Other World Computing" as opposed to upgrading through Apple though. It's about 60% cheaper and is quite easy to install)
    I find it very frustrating that the 13" & 15" MBP's no longer have a way to expand functionality via an Express-Card slot. There's really no work around on this other than going with the 17". However, I know how bulky that, and I love my 13" in comparison. The only other possibility would be to find a 15" from their previous series of MBP's (they come with only 4GB RAM, but actually will support up to 6GB).
    I do love my new 13", and unless you definitely need the Express Card reader, I definitely reccommend the purchase. Good Luck!

  • Java help for an old MacBook

        I need some help, please.  I have an old MacBook - Mac OS X version 10.5.8 - and I have zero money.  Health wise, I have large spaces of time when I need to be still, for meds to work.  My sis gave me a membership for Pogo and the games really helped a lot with the still times.  Now, I keep getting Java messages that I need to update my Java -  -  - and I'm afraid that my ol' Mac isn't up to the task anymore.  At least, I've tried to update many times - but I wind up having the same problem.  Do I need to uninstall something and reinstall? (how would I do that) Am I just SOL?  Or do you have an idea that would work.               I've asked this question on other forums and have gotten some guy who wants $80 to $100 to tell me how to fix it, but as I said, I have zero money.  If someone has an idea, please let me know.      Thank you so much.

    I assume the MacBook is Intel? (-About This Mac from the menu bar)
    Java should update through Apple Software update FOR FREE. (-Software Update from the menu bar). Oracle no longer offers a download that will run on Mac OS systems lower than 10.7.
    The direct link to download the latest Flasj=h Player that will run on OS 10.5.8 is: Flash Player 10.3.183.90 (Mac only)
    Unfortunately, that may not work with Pogo.
    If you truly do have "zero" money you may be SOL.
    If your Mac is Intel and you can possibly spare $20 (I'm not  asking for it), Apple sells OS 10.6 (http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard) for $19.99 and they ship it for free.
    Everything you have will "Migrate" to the new OS with the install, but you'll be able to run a lot of software that WON'T run on 10.5

  • Help for a watered MacBook Pro?

    Hey everyone!
    So, last week, I spilled a pretty full glass of water on my 13-inch non-retina display MacBook pro. The screen stayed on for a little while on the word processing I was doing before it fizzled out. I took it to the Genius Bar, where they told me that the motherboard and battery were both shot, that there was still standing water in the MacBook, and that I'd have to buy a whole new one. They took the undamaged hard drive out for me, and I went home.
    Later that night, I was quite distraught, but thought I'd try turning it on one more time, just in case. I practically soiled my pants when the startup sound came through the speaker! The screen (which was functioning perfectly) told me that there was, of course, no hard drive connected.
    With renewed hope, I bought a giant bag of rice, emptied out half of it, and put my MacBook inside. (I know that a lot of people on here advise against that, but what did I have to lose?) Yesterday me and one of my Apple-savvy friends opened it up and found that there was no standing water left inside, and the only visible damage was some small (possibly normal) corrosion along the top of the motherboard. We hooked the hard drive back up, but the computer didn't turn on. Any ideas? I have a hunch that maybe the battery needs replacing. I feel like since the computer turned on that one time after the spill, the motherboard can't be completely gone.

    but thought I'd try turning it on one more time, just in case.
    Bad idea, everyone tries it, always a bad idea. That just causes more damage from a wet logic board.
    With renewed hope, I bought a giant bag of rice,
    Wont work period.   (see below)
    that there was no standing water left inside
    Standing water is never the issue, rather water in the 1000 tight places where it will ruin your Mac, and eventually corrode.
    Liquid spills, why your MacBook chassis is a one-way valve for spills
    After a substantial spill many people will turn their notebook upside down and shake it, not only does this not work, but it spreads liquid havoc throughout your machine and makes things often as bad as possible.
    The keyboard itself acts like a one way valve in the case of a substantial liquid spill. While liquid pours into the bottom chassis easy, it does not come out easily at all, and in the case of any spill, most of it will not come out by turning it upside down. Disconnect all power and contact Apple for diagnostics and repair.
    Do not attempt to, after a spill, ‘dry out your MacBook’ and test it
    After a spill most people invariably try to “dry out” their notebook by various methods, including hair dryers and otherwise. This both does not work, and after a substantial spill of any magnitude, even if the liquid was water, residue is left behind.
    There are additionally many very tight places inside your notebook where liquids will linger for a very long time, and cause corrosion or worse.
    Immediately unplug your notebook and contact Apple for in shop diagnostics and parts replacement.
    In the case of very minor spills people will “dry out” their notebook and feel success that their notebook is working ok, however invariably in nearly all instances after 4-14 days an error / fault pops up and is usually followed by more.
    In case of a spill, damage estimates are impossible,.....anything can be fixed, without question.......the question is cost.
    contact Apple for in shop diagnostics and cost estimation ....possible parts replacement.  

  • HT1296 Does software exist to sync i-phone calendar with Microsoft Live calendar?

    I have a PC on which I use Windows Live to sync calendar with my Windows phone, but I also want to sync the Live calendar with my wife's i-phone. I haave not been able to find a way to do this. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    You may have to subscribe your Outlook to an iCloud calendar to bring it all back in sync.
    Apple pushed everything to iCloud and it's pretty much luck if the computer to iDevice sync works for calendars.
    Plus, the time involved for iTunes to scrape the calendar info and push it into outlook, just not worth it anymore. 
    If you have an Exchange or Google email account, you can internet-sync calendars across those also if you don't want to use iCloud.

  • Syncing my iphone calendar with mac computer calendar

    I want to sync my iPhone3 calendar to my mac computer calendar, with all the info in my iPhone overriding the computer calendar. When I sync, typically the computer calendar will trumph all the info in my phone and I lose valuable info on my phone...any suggestions?

    There is no such option.
    The sync process for calendars/calendar events is a bidirectional or true sync process, or should be. There is an option to replace calendars/calendar events on the iPhone with what is available in the supported calendar app on your computer, but not the other way around.
