Sync'ing Notes to iCloud

If I sign on to icloud via a browser and write a Note, it will sync up with my iphone, no problem. If I write a Note on my iPhone, I do not see it in my Notes in my icloud. I have everything turned on, so why doesn't it only go in one direction? How do I get the notes I create on my iPad and iPhone to show up in my Notes in icloud?

It may be that a different thing is syncing your notes. Perhaps an email account.
Go into Settings > Mail, Contacts, and Calendars and then click on your first email account.
Check to see if you see any on/off sliders, and if one of those sliders says "notes".
If it does say "notes" make sure it's slid to off. Then go through the rest of your email accounts and do the same thing.

Sync-ing Notes via iCloud to a PC (Windows)

So here's the deal, I have an iPad, Macbook Pro, iPhone and work machine running windows 7. I'm currently sync-ing notes and reminders across all of my Apple devices, and would like to have access to them on my work PC (windows) as well.
Is there a way to sync my notes via iCloud with my Windows machine?

Worse still: the new iTunes will has discontinued to sync notes from MS Outlook with standard iTunes sync (wired or wireless)
Try Evernotes, or another 3rd party app.

It's very possible that you did just as you suspect. One of the later Note file over wrote the one stored on your iPad when you synced.
When one does a sync of their iPad a backup of the iPad is created first. If that backup was still available you might be able to find the Note file there. But more than likely, if you are letting the iPad and iPhones sync on their own over Wi-Fi you have over written that back up as well.

HT4191 iPhone 4S is not syncing my notes over iCloud

I followed the apple instruction on how to setup iCloud, created an e-mail account on both, the iPhone and my Mac Book Air and is not syncing the notes from my iPhone. I can see the notes from the iCloud account on my iPhone, but is empty. Does somebody know how to resolve this issue?

On the iPhone tap Settings > iCloud
Switch off both Contacts and Calendars then switch back on then reset the device.
Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home button down at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

Sync-ing gmail through iCloud

I want to sync my mail through iCloud, including my gmail. Is this possible? Ultimate goal is to manage email from both my iphone and macbook and have them sync with each other. That's not happening now.

Only Apple's email accounts work through iCloud. You could always forward gmail mail to the apple account, but there are certain disadvantages, such as using the gmail return address instread of an apple address when replying.
Think of icloud email as an independent provider like gmail and all others. That's why the email client app on a device or a computer can be set up to access emails from multiple sources. When using the email client, you see all your emails together - why the need to route everything through one provider? (Unless you are trying to use email via a browser.)

Sync mac notes with iCloud

When I create a note in Mac's Mail, it will be synced with icloud and show up on my iphone. But if I click an email message, and choose "move to notes -> icloud", this message will show up in the "notes" section under "reminders", but it does not have the little yellow note icon next to it, and it is not synced to iCloud. Is there any way that I can turn an email into a note, and get it synced to icloud? Thanks.

It reads like this is a problem on the iOS side. On your iPhone or iPad launch the notes app, in the top left corner tap the button until you are on the Accounts page and see if iCloud is an option. If it is select that option and new notes will push to your Mac. If its not close the Notes app and go to Settings > iCloud > Notes > Toggle On. The option will now be in the notes app as described above. Side note: You may be asked to set up an iCloud email if you haven't already. Hope that helps.

Sync ALL notes through iCloud

I have notes and reminder 'on' in my iCloud setting, but still not all notes that are on my iPad appear on my iPhone.
How do I make this work?

First, log on to https://icloud.com using your Apple ID. Click on Notes. Do you see all of your notes there?
If you do see them online, then on the iPhone go to Settings/iCloud and turn off Notes. Then turn it back on. This should force Notes to resync.

What's Up With Notes Sync'ing?

Hi,
I just upgraded to iPhone 4S and switched from MobileMe to iCloud. I knew I was losing some features, but since the System Preferences…>iCloud pane (in Mac OS X 10.7.3) shows "Mail & Notes" (which I checked), I figured that notes will continue to sync. Except they do not. And, unlike the MobileMe PrefPane, there is no "Sync now" button to force synchronization. So, the notes on my iPhone and on my MBP are now out of sync. Then I thought to check on icloud.com… and find no way to access Notes there.
So, are Notes supposed to be sync'ed or not?? Does anyone else have this problem? (I suspect I can connect the iPhone to iTunes, and force the transfer of info, but that would not merge them and I'm likely going to lose something...)
Thanks, Tristan

PS: I just forced sync'ing notes via iTunes (while the iPhone is connected, selected the iPhone in the iTunes side-bar, then the "Info" tab, checked "Other > "Sync notes", and then clicked "Apply", which re-started the sync'ing process). That prompted a merge-conflict dialogue box to pop up on my Mac, where I could select the note to keep/replace one by one. So, at least, my notes are now sync'ed.
The question remains: does this not happen via iCloud? Or, is there a setting I failed to set/check?

Contacts and Calendar not sync'ing with Outlook 2010

All was fine today until (maybe coincidental - maybe not) I had a Microsoft Exchange email account added to my Outlook 2010. I have an iPhone 4, and I usually sync daily, especially when calendar or contact changes take place. I am currently not using the icloud, so all contacts and calendar events would be way too outdated.
I have checked my Outlook settings under "info" and cannot get my contacts and address to load. I even see the "Contacts syncing"..."calendar sync'ing" when the overall iTunes sync takes place with my iPhone.
Help!!

Yes, it is. Do you have Desktop Manager v6?

New Photos not sync'ing to iTunes

I think this happened before... I noticed that the Photos on Mac is changed. Though I don't really like the interface, I am trying to get used to it... however, once again, the photos are not sync'ing properly to iTunes... I need help... For example: there are more number of photos on my laptop after importing from my phone... Then I grouped them into different Events. However, I am not seeing these being sync back into my phone via the iTunes.
I happened before, and for some reasons, it get fixed by itself. DO you acknowledge these is a problem?

HI,
Maybe try it this way this is what I did with mine because I did not migrate and didn't know about that either.
and really have the sidebar so because it will help you get the pictures organized
Photos application for Mac Instructions that might help!
On your iPad,iPhone keep the iCloud on in settings for Photos.
if you have not opened the New Photos application yet to have it transfer your photos from iPhoto let it Transfer the Pictures.
once you have all the pictures from iPhoto to Photos then in Photos go to Preferences
there is general and iCloud tab and go to the iCloud and only uncheck the iCloud button that will make it so it doesn't sync with your iPhone and iPad for Photos.
Then in Photos go up to View and press show sidebar because with that view you can move your pictures easier to albums snd delete or move any pictures or make new albums
For Duplicates if you have a big pile in a row and I mean not like every other picture of the same pictures on the keyboard Hold down the shift button. or the other way is to Hold down the Command buttom that is right by the space bar then on the trackpad or mouse click once on the picture you want to delete and do a bunch at a time then on the last picture of that pile either right click the picture and delete or go up to the edit button which is next to file on the top left and click delete in edit.
when you are all done with moving around your pictures or whatever go back to Preferences and turn on iCloud and make sure you have the optimize Mac Storage and then you are done! I hope this makes sense and works for you! here are the 2 pictures I'm talking about in settings.

ICloud Library stopped sync'ing

I have Photos.app and iCloud Library on two computers, sync'ing with an iPhone 6. Everything was working perfectly for a week - any changes on one device showed up on the others very quickly. Then suddenly my main computer stopped receiving updates. Newly shot photos show up on my laptop and at icloud.com, but never appear on my main machine. Photos on the main machine says "Last updated Monday" (it's now Friday).
I've tried restarting, and tried pausing and resuming sync in the prefs, but nothing seems to get it going again. All machines are on the same wifi network, the phone is fully charged, all updates are applied.
Ideas?

Solved! But it wasn't pretty. In case it's helpful to others, here's how I solved it:
I finally got desperate and in the preferences, disabled iCloud Photo Library, then after a few minutes, re-enabled it. When I re-enabled it, it said I had 86 "referenced files" that it needed permission to access. After some Googling, I realized that referenced files are files that don't live within the Photos library folder, but that are linked to. It then told me to find these referenced files and pull down File | Consolidate to bring them into the Photos library. It did not tell me *how* to find them, but I got creative and made a Smart Album of all images with type "referenced."
The smart album revealed the problem images, but when I selected some and pulled down File | Consolidate, Photos said it needed permission and told me to navigate to ~/Pictures/iPhoto Library/Masters/2012 and put up a file navigation dialog. So the "referenced" files were still in iPhoto! Huh? My other 20,000 images had migrated over just fine. No idea why this was. But here's where the 2nd problem began. I *could not* navigate to that folder, since "iPhoto Library" does not appear in the Finder as a folder. So the dialog was telling me to do something impossible.
After puzzling on this for a while, I realized that the problem could be solved by deleting the references to external files from Photos and re-importing them manually. I launched iPhoto and manually found all 86 images (they were from three albums and fortunately I'm good about titling and labeling, so was able to find them easily. I then exported them from iPhoto as full res originals, deleted the references in Photos, and imported the old problem images as if they were new.
Photos then churned against iCloud overnight. By morning, it had become unstuck, and the photos I've shot over the past week are now present.
So the problem was not the new photos, but some old photos that for some reason had not migrated over from iPhoto properly. And Photos was recommending a fix that was impossible to achieve the way it was instructing me to. What a mess.

Mavericks Mail not sync'ing IMAP act. (Not GMail)

I have been waiting silently to see if a fix would come on its own, but none yet. Ever since upgrading to Mavericks, Mail.app does NOT sync my IMAP accounts correctly. I have gone so far as to remove and re-add the accounts numerous times... no change. The recent "update" that was supposed to address Gmail issues had no affect on my sync'ing issues either. As others have posted, I basically have to quit and re-launch mail for it to correctly show what is on the mail server. All of my iDevices are working just fine - I can read or move an email, and all my iDevices show it correctly... but when I return to my Mac - some show as unread - some messages that I moved or deleted are still THERE (unread), etc.
Once I quit and relaunch, the inbox displays correctly - but there is no way (that I can find) to force the inbox to "refresh" correctly while the app is open. "Getting new" messages does nothing to help. Has anyone found a solution or work-around...? or is this just a "sit back and wait for Apple to fix" kind of problem...?
Thanks,
SF

I have the same problem. The recent Mavericks update fixed the original Gmail problem (of not being able to get rid of mail from the in box), but this problem is there and very frustrating. Exactly the same as the original post - Mail on my Mac does not reflect the emails filed, moved, deleted etc from my iPad or iPhone. Gmail, iPad and iPhone are all in perfect sync, but the Mac is not.
The only way to force the Mac into line is to QUIT Mail and relaunch.
(By the way, I don't have any anti-virus on my machine, so it's nothing to do with that - its a Mavericks issue).
I have been looking at alternative mail clients as I have now lost all faith in Apple Mail. (I am committed to IMAP and Gmail, on 3 different email accounts).
Yersterday I tried Outlook (as I happen to have a copy with Office-2011 for Mac). I liked it apart from the fact that it won't work with iCloud contacts... so its no good for me.
I'm looking at Mailplane now.... doesn't seem to be available via App store, but I'm going to try a free 15 day trial I found online. I'd say that's how long Apple has to fix this problem as far as I'm concerned.

Contact changes not sync'ing

contact changes made to laptop not sync'ing and showing up on IPhone

I have a iphone 4 with 2400 contacts on iCloud, I really like the contact management and use with great satisfaction.
I use a computer at work windows 7 and outlook 2010, I installed the panel icloud to sync contacts with iCloud.
Here's the problem:
When I insert / edit / delete a contact on iphone / icloud, the change is propagated in Outlook.
if i insert / edit / delete a contact in Outlook, the change is propagated NOT on iphone / icloud.
I have made several attempts and tests.
disconnected from the icloud control panel, logout / login, checks on plugin outlook add-ons, no positive results!
is a known problem?
is a known bug in the system?
Any idea?
thanks
Francesco
