Sync iPhone5 to Contacts does not work, but contacts to iPhone5, works..! Crazy..??
Hello all..!
I added a new contact to my iPhone 5, and after a day or two tried to find it from contacts. Resolt? NOWHERE..!!
I made all steps, before i write this question here. Tried almost(!) every help i found at sites. but didn't work.
Finally, I deleted the contact from my iPhone5, and added it at first at contacts. I made sync, and the new contact came to my phone..!
Please, what is wrong..??? This anomaly drives me crazy..!
iPhone5 --> Contacts (iMac) does not work.
Contacts (iMac) --> iPhone5 works..!
PS. Before "Mavericks" was Mountain Lion, without problem...
Thanks in advance
Well not sure about anyone else but finally spoke with "support" today.
First call I made I was told if I paid $79.00 I would receive assistance for a year.
They could fix my problem through my pc.
Well not paying.
Phone 1-800-APPLE and was told that because didn't pay for call display through
my provider it isn't going to work for me.
Seems they don't advise you of that when you are making a decision on buying a phone.
They at least could have put a *note saying function only works under specific conditions.
I would have checked that out first thing.
Lesson learned I guess. Now my provider supplies that option free for new plans but won't
apply it to mine. So much for customer service. This all within a couple of months.
Now if anyone has any information that would change what I was told please let me know.

I do not know why today my IPOD run out of battery and when I get home and place it to charge, It never came back to life, he is dead. I do not know how to start it.
Try pressing the lock and home buttons at the same time and hold down until something appears on the screen.

My iCloud is set up and seems to work. However, a newly added contact does not sync from the Macbook to the iphone and iPad. What am I doing wrong? Thanks, txstan
Apparantly it is, On My Mac contacts don't appear in iCloud, anywhere.
Put all your contacts on all of your devices in iCloud (assuming that's where you want them to be)
Go to www.icloud.com, login and see what you actually have in the account. -
Sync w/outlook contacts does not include notes section
Syncing between BB and Outlook works perfectly except that the "notes" section of a "contact" does not get transferred to the contact on my BB. I have looked at the "mapped fields", address book on the BB desktop and find that "device - notes" is supposed to sync with "MS Outlook - body". This seems backwards as Outlook has a "notes" section but no "body" section.
BB and desktop upgrades are current. Computer OS is Win Home Premium 7 64-bit. Outlook is Office 2010.
Any guidance would be appreciated. Thank you.Surely one of you really smart users has a solution to transfering the "notes" section of an Outlook contact to the BB when doing a general syncronization to BB. The process used to work but has not worked with the latest upgrade on the BB. Again any hints will be appreciated. Thank you.

What if sync with new computer does not work?
logical connection to old with WindowsXP, 32 bit version of iTunes.
New is Windows7 with 64bit versionSyncing to a new iTunes library or computer will erase your iPod. Only if you back up your iPod manually before syncing, you can restore your device from that backup again. A manual backup does not include the sync process.
Do this:
Disable autosync in iTunes, connect your iPod to your new computer and right click on it in the device list and choose backup. iTunes will backup your iPod without syncing.
Transfer your purchases the same way, choosing "transfer purchases" this time.
When you connect your phone for the first time, all media content will be erased. But you can restore your settings and app data from your manual backup afterwards.
Don't forget to set up at least one contact and event on your new computer to be able to merge calendars and contacts when you sync the iPod for the first time.
Music is one way only, from the computer to your device, unless you bought the songs in iTunes and transferred your purchases.
There is 3rd party software out there, but not supported by Apple, see this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2013615&tstart=0

If the iPhone is locked to a US carrier, you cannot use the SIM card of another carrier on it to either activate it or use the iPhone.
If you want to use your iPhone with China unicom, you need to get it unlocked by your US carrier. Contact them to see what their unlocking policy is and if you qualify. -

I have set up my iPhone to wifi sync with iTunes on my Mac Air, but my iPhone's contacts are not displaying in Contacts on my Mac...any ideas?
Hi there kushfromgbr,
You may find the information in the article below helpful.
About SyncServices
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5847
OS X Mavericks
OS X Mavericks v10.9 and later do not use SyncServices. Instead, Mavericks supports sharing your information using several network-based and cloud-based solutions. If you want to sync your information across multiple devices and computers, you should use one or more of these methods. These include iCloud, CardDAV servers, CalDAV servers, and servers that utilize the Exchange ActiveSync protocol.
If you would like more information about setting up iCloud on your devices you can take a look at the article below.

Firefox does not open, but instead gives the error message, "Failed to read the configuration file." It has worked in the past, but not now.
I REINSTALL 10 TIMES SO DON'T TELL ME THAT!!!
I'm piss because i need firefox working again so i can finish reseaching my speech in 5 days.Which files do you have in the defaults\pref folder in the Firefox program folder?
*(32 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\"
*(64 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\"
See also "Other solutions":
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved
Do a clean reinstall and delete the Firefox program folder before (re)installing a fresh copy of the current Firefox release.
Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
*Firefox 22.0: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
Uninstall your current Firefox version, if possible, to cleanup the Windows registry and settings in security software.
*Do NOT remove personal data when you uninstall your current Firefox version, because all profile folders will be removed and you lose personal data like bookmarks and passwords from profiles of other Firefox versions.
Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
*(32 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\"
*(64 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\"
*It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox
Your bookmarks and other personal data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and won't be affected by an uninstall and (re)install, but make sure that "remove personal data" is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox.
