Sync questions? Comcast address book? Not sync every time I connect Ipad?

Hi|!
Still working on learning this wonderful tool!
Is there a way to pull in my comcast address book?
how can I make my ipad NOT sync every time I hook it to my computer? Can I just drag and drop a new movie onto it?
Do you use a screen protector?
Thanks so much!!

Turning off auto sync is probably the first thing you should do before you start to experiment. Launch iTunes and go to Edit>Preferences>Devices>click on the box at the bottom that says - Prevent iPods, iPhones and iPads from automatically syncing. Then click OK and quit iTunes
If your Comcast address book is in an address book on your computer - you can select it to sync in the Info Tab in iTunes - under the heading - Sync Address Book Contacts.
You should make sure that the movie is in the correct format before you add it to iTunes or before you drag and drop. You can add the movie to iTunes via File>Add to library and if necessary click on the movie in the library and go to Advanced>Create iPad or Apple TV versions. I believe that you can drag and drop if you manage content manually.
Video formats supported: H.264 video up to 1080p, 30 frames per second, High Profile level 4.1 with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats; MPEG-4 video up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps per channel, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats; Motion JPEG (M-JPEG) up to 35 Mbps, 1280 by 720 pixels, 30 frames per second, audio in ulaw, PCM stereo audio in .avi file format
Yes I use a screen protector but it is a matter of personal choice.

Why is my address book not syncing with my icloud contacts

Why does my address book not sync to iCloud?

Why does my address book not sync to iCloud?

I believe the duplicate address book accounts stems from the move from MobileMe to iCloud and both accounts still being active.
This is how I merged the two address books:
1) To make sure all the contacts are in both:
a) I selected On My Mac account - clicked on any address - Command A to select all - drag the contacts to the iCloud account - answered OK to merge and resolve duplicates.
b) same in reverse: select the iCloud account - click on an address - click Command A to select all - drag the contacts to the On My Mac account - answer OK to merge and resolve duplicates.
In system preferences I found an iCloud icon and also a MobileMe icon. I was logged in under both.
1) In the Address Book preferences I selected iCloud and unchecked Enable this account.
2) In the Address Book I selected iCloud and clicked on the minus “-” to remove that account – leaving only the local Mac address book.
3) I went into system preferences and logged out of MobileMe
4) In system preferences I opened iCloud and the “Contacts” was not selected (from above) and I selected it.
I got a dialog box asking if I wanted to merge the iCloud contact with the local contacts – clicked YES.
… spinning wheel for a minute … voila – only one address book account – iCloud with syncing to iCloud and my iPhone.

Waiting was the key solution here!
After waiting aprox 2/3 hours it worked. Changed nothing...

"Smart Groups" in Address Book not syncing to the iPhone

"Smart Groups" in Address Book not syncing to the iPhone
Normal Groups sync but smart groups do not.
Anyone else have this issue or know of a fix?
Thanks.

This same concept applies to syncing two macs via .Mac
The method I use for iPhone is this.
Define your smart group as needed.
Define a read group with a similar or convenient name.
From time to time drag your whole smart group to the real group.
The real group is the one that then syncs to your iPhone.
As a safety factor, I usually clear all entries from my real group before I drag over the updated smart group.
Anyway, this is simple and works well.
Hope that helps.

Subscribed address book not synced to iPhone

I shared my address book with my wife, and she subscribes to it. Unfortunately, the shared contacts do not make it to her iPhone during a sync. Any Ideas why?
Also, what's the difference between subscribing to a mac address book and syncing using mobileme?
Thanks!

I also have this issue. My contacts sync fine from the computer to Mobileme, but the groups don't sync to the iphone. This leaves me with an empty "Groups" window as described by eltons. If I sync through itunes, with Mobileme contacts sync off on the iphone, the groups show up.
Any ideas? Is this consistent with the original post?

Custom image from Address book not syncing to Exchange.

I am running Mac OS X v 10.7.5. I have added custom images to contacts in address book. I have an Exchange account which will sync the data (ie name, address, email) but not the custom image. Is there away to have custom images sync to Exchange/Outlook?

I'm Running Mac OS X Lion, and have seen that changes made in the mac address book do not sync to gmail contacts but changes to gmail contacts do sync to the mac address book.
Making a change to a contact on my phone does sync to gmail contacts, and then to the mac address book.
Another test I ran was to change the same contact in gmail and mac address book. I made a change to a mobile number and notes in one contact on my mac address book, attempted to sync, and the change does not appear in my gmail contacts. I tried multiple times, restarted my web browser, restarted mac address book, the sync would not work. I changed the same contact mobile number in gmail with a slightly different change to the notes field so I could see when an update occurred, and when I told mac address book to sync it recognized a conflict. When I select the mac address book change to resolve the conflict, the gmail contact is not updated. When I repeated the experiment and selected the gmail contact to resolve the conflict the change is made in the mac address book.

Basic question about address book / gmail sync

Does the itunes address book / gmail sync feature only sync between those two contact lists, or if I enable gmail sync, will all of my gmail contacts be put on my iphone?
I have only one folder of about 200 contacts in address book synced to my iphone. But address book and gmail have about 1,000 contacts each. I don't want all of those contacts on my phone.
Thanks.

Found an answer to my main question regarding the separate address books, looks like Lion Server is capable of doing personal address books for each user: http://www.wegotserved.com/2011/10/06/os-lion-server-home-server-part-11-shared- address-book/

Address Books not syncing on one iPhone

I am running GroupWise Mobility Service 2.0.0, Build 429. I have 25 iPhone 5c's connected to it. All but one work perfectly. One iPhone syncs email and calendar but does not receive any of the users address books (there are two that should sync). I've reset the device to factory defaults from the Mobility Service admin console, from the device and from iTunes. I've deleted the user and added back. I've resync'd the user. I've noticed that on the Mail, Contacts, Calendars screen, the Default Account parameter appears for a short period of time then completely disappears. I've configured the user's iPad which has the same Apple account as the iPhone had orginally, and have the same results. Thinking there was something in the Apple account that was causing the issue, I had the user create a new Apple account for this phone and configured it after resetting the device. None of the above helped. Email and calendar sync perfectly. The address books have never sync'd with the device.
Anyone have any ideas?

I am assuming they are both selected in the GMS webadmin for this user,
if not check there first.
Is there any address book name conflicts? I.e. Same name in GW as is on
the device?
Next would be to use mcheck

if still having a problem,
Export the contents of one of the address books, import it to new
address book, and sync it.

Address book not syncing

Searching for this issue didn't produce posts that helped; posting here instead.....
Address Book syncs from my iMac (LiosOS 10.7.2) to one of our iPhone 4S, but not to our other iPhone 4S or our iPad 2. All devices have current systems on them. Settings are in place properlyusing the same iCloud ID on each handheld device. iCal syncs perfectly, but Address Book content does not appear on two of the three. Baffled by the why this isn't working as it should and how to make it work. All help is appreciated. Thanks.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
There are a couple of places to check on the devices that don't sync properly.
Settings > iCloud > Contacts
Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > iCloud > Contacts
Check it's on in both locations, I think if you set it in one place it should set itself in the other, but it's probably worth checking.
If that doesn't help try turning off the Contact syncing option, restarting the device and turning Contact syncing back on.

Address Book not syncing with Exchange 2007

My address book on Snow Leopard has 4093 cards, but not all of them are showing up in my contacts folder in Outlook Web Access. My company uses Exchange 2007. This is strange as I originally populated my address book by syncing it with my cards on Outlook. Does anyone know what the problem might be?

Address Book not syncing with Google Apps

so i thought this will be resolved after reinstalling 10.5.7 (i tried a lot of tweaks in the earlier installation to make this work) but it seems that even with a clean install it wouldnt work.
address book authenticates with google but no updates are being sent or recieved.
did anyone manage to get this working ? i have a feeling its not out of the box...

Hi guys,
I have a similiar problem. My address booked has synced correctly with google contacts since 2 years
And suddenly it stopped syncing. Furthermore when I go to settings/acconts I still find
my "Local" account where i configured my google account, but now the right window is empty.
There is no button to edit or show this account !!
(I mentioned this after update to 10.6.8, but I'm not sure if it worked shortly before doing the update)
What could be wrong ?

Address Book not syncing to Gmail

Why does my iphone sync all 5000 songs on my phone every time I connect it?

Every time I try to add songs to my iphone 4s, it has to resync all 5000 songs that are currently stored on the phone, rather than just the one or two new additions. If I disconnect the phone before it is done all the music it hasn't gotten to will not play. I am running ios7 and the current version of itunes 11. Thanks!

Hi louiepatterson,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If your entire iTunes library is syncing every time you connect your iPhone, you may want to try setting up syncing in iTunes again by following the steps in the appropriate article below. If you're syncing music, try un-checking and then re-checking the "Sync music" checkbox in iTunes.
iTunes 11 for Mac: Set up syncing for iPod, iPhone, or iPad
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12113
iTunes 11 for Windows: Set up syncing for iPod, iPhone, or iPad
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12313
Your entire library will sync again once more after this, but then only new songs should sync thereafter. If the issue persists, I'd try the troubleshooting steps in our iPhone assistant next:

ITunes "not responding" every time I connect iPhone

Can anyone offer some advice here please? I just got my new iphone 3G, and downloaded iTunes 7.7. It all worked fine and synched OK to the new phone.
However, every time I connect the phone subsequently, the PC opens a window to say that a camera has been connected and asks me to chose a program. Whatever I then do (OK or Cancel), iTunes freezes up. Does anyone have any suggestions lease?

I mean the program will open, but when asked to open anything it just sets with the rainbow pie spinning. Click on garageband in the dock and it says that is not responding.

Sync questions? Comcast address book? Not sync every time I connect Ipad?
