Sync to PC and Mac?

Alright, I have a bit of a situation here. I'm wanting to get an iPhone to manage everything. All of my music, photos and videos are on my MacBook Pro at home. I also have email there as well. At work, we use Windows XP, Office 2004 and 2007.
Is it possible to have my iPhone sync my calendar at work and everything else at my house? I know that you cant have an iPod registered to two different computers. Is the iPhone allowing you to do that though for easibility?

Sebastian...As long as you can install iTunes on your work computer then you should be OK...iTunes allows you up to 5 computers per account so make sure that you authorize the work computer to manage under same account. You will have to tell each computer what you want it to sync. i.e. Work computer Calender/Contacts and Home Music/Videos. You will not be able to share your media on two computers unless the libraries are completely identacle. Hope this helps.
Good Luck

Upon syncing my iPhone and mac all of my ical and iPhone calendar events have duplicated. how can i fix this and avoid it in the future?

upon syncing my iPhone and mac all of my ical and iPhone calendar events have duplicated. how can i fix this and avoid it in the future?

Greetings,
Questions:
1. What version of the Mac OS are you running (Apple > About this Mac)?
2. What version of the iOS are you running (Settings > About)?
3. Do you backup your computer (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1427)?
--- If you don't regularly backup your computer, now is the time to start.
4. Do you backup your iPhone (http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766)?
Check the calendar list on the left hand side of iCal. Is it that the individual events are duplicated or is it just that you have the same calendar listed more than once? If its that you have more than 1 copy of each calendar, you can delete one of the duplicate calendars to eliminate the duplicates.
If you find that it is the individual events that are duplicated then there are 2 options:
1. Restore your computer iCal database or iPhone from a backup made before the duplication occurred.
2. Use a duplication removal program (or do it by hand) to remove the duplicates: http://www.nhoj.co.uk/icaldupedeleter/
If you have a backup made before the duplication occurred, reply back with what kind of backup you have and I'll suggest how to recover the calendars.
To avoid this issue in the future:
Keep regular backups. They are your best defense against data anomalies which are a fact of life in computers (although hopefully rare).
Keep your computer and iPhone software fully up to date (Apple > Software Update / Settings > General > Software Update).
Make sure the date and time on your computer and iPhone are correct before you sync the two devices.
Make sure the cable connections between the two is solid and that the cable shows no signs of physical damage.
Hope that information helps.

Can I sync PC fonts and Mac fonts using Creative Cloud?

Can I sync PC fonts and Mac fonts using Creative Cloud?

Well, you should have a dedicated sync MIDI cable. Assign Logic to transmit MTC. Tell Cubase to chase it.
Song settings>Synchronization>MIDI
that is where you can tell Logic to transmit MTC. When routing back to Logic you shuld not expect significant latency and there are ways to offset it. The easiest would probably tell Cubase to run a little ahead of the clock. (Offset)
So there is the Logic settings panel Cubase has one similar, for chasing. If you use a dedicated audio interface and transfer audio digitally from PC to Mac then you would want to have then synced via word clock. I would put Logic as the master here again.
You're Welcome,

Since I down loaded Mavericks I can't sync calendars with iPhone. How can I sync iPhone calendar and Mac calendar

Since I downloaded Mavericks on my Mac I can't sync calendars with iphone. How can I sync iphone calendars with Mac calendar?

Mavericks syncs Calendar via iCloud.
Make sure you have the same iCloud account set up on your mac and your iPhone.
In System Preferences > iCloud, make sure the Calendars checkbox is checked.
In System Preferences > Internet Accounts, iCloud should be an account in the box on the left, and Calendars should be checked in the box on the right. If you have other calendars, for example, from work, make sure those are enabled too.
Check the same settings on your iPhone: in Settings > iCloud, make sure the same iCloud account info is present and that the Calendars slider is on. in Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars, make sure the iCloud account is present, and that the Calendars slider is on.

My calendar is not syncing between iphone and Mac air on iCloud.

Hi
The calendar entries I am adding either on my iphone or mac air via icloud are not syncying between the devices. Is anyone else having this problem currently? If yes, how can it be resolved. I have deleted the account and added it back in but to no avail.
Thanks

Are all the devices set to actually sync calendar entries to iCloud? If any of them are set to sync with some other service (gMail, Yahoo, Hotmail, etc.) while some of them are set to use iCloud then they can not sync. Or if they are set to iCloud but only set to sync say contact and bookmarks then they will not sync. They all have to be set to iCloud and they all have to have the calendar option selected.

When will the iphone's ical be able to sync with iTunes and Mac's Ical

since the release of the iOS5 I've been unable to have a calendar on my iPhone that is fundamental to my life.
the ical still keeps recording 5, 10, 20, 50 times the same recording whenever I try to sync the iphone with the mac's ical.
I would like to know when will this mishap be fixed so that I can be able to work properly with the iphone schedulling appointments on the iphone and later syncing them with my mac's ical.
thank you

I can't seem to find any icloud setting on my MBP. The calenders sync just fine between my phone, ipad and on the icloud account, but the MBP iCal has nothing on it.
When I go to itunes, it simply says that things are being automatically synced on icloud and there is no option for me to change anything.
I would just like to bring my MBP iCal up to speed?????

Looking for app to store account numbers in that syncs with iphone and mac

Hi all, I have tons of random work information, account info, logins, etc., that I would like to keep on my mac and sync to my iphone. But I would like to have them protected in some fashion.
Anyone have any recommendations?

I recently purchased the mSecure app for the same purpose but cannot get it to sync with the desktop version via wifi as it is supposed to do. Support response from mSecure has been good but still no luck syncing. All of these types of apps require syncing via wi-fi but not much good if it doesn't work. I've tried all of the suggested work-arounds to no avail. Any suggestions would be welcome. I'm trying to sync to a Windows laptop. I'm reluctant to use the same type of apps that back up to an online storage site for security purposes.

When I sync my Ipad and Mac I get a message from itunes to allow access with an email address I no longer use and asks for a password I don't know how do I remove the old email

Whwn I sync my ipad I get a message from itunes to sign into my account but the email used is not my email and I don't have a password for the email it used - how do I get rid of the email address for itunes on the ipad - itunes on the Mac work just fine - but not on the ipad

Hello Tonchee
If you are seeing an Apple ID that is not yours, then you have purchased content on your iPad that is tied to that Apple ID. You would need to know that password or remove the content that is associated with that Apple ID.

Contacts no longer in sync between iPhone and Mac after creating iCloud email address

A few days ago, I was asked (by iCloud) to create an iCloud email address because it would be "better" than the email address I've been using. Since then, most of my contacts have disappeared from my iPhone 4s. I have noticed that the newest contacts are still on my iPhone, while all my other contacts are on my Mac and on iCloud.com.
How do I merge the two so that I don't lose any of the contacts and get them all in sync?
On my MacBook Pro, l have OS X v10.9.1, System Settings for iCloud checked for Contacts.
On my iPhone 4S, I have iOS 7.0.4, System Settings for iCloud ON for Contacts.
iCloud account on both devices is the same AppleID, which is my old AppleID, not the new @iCloud.com
My Hotmail email account has also been screwed up since this change. It keeps downloading the same messages over and over again and when I try to delete them, it tells me it is unable to move the messages to the mailbox trash.

Welcome to the Apple Community BratTheCat.
Please try the following…
First check that all your settings are correct, that contact syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
Make sure the contacts you are adding are added to your 'iCloud' group and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud group (you can do this by checking in groups), non iCloud contacts will not sync.
If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your contacts are in the iCloud group, you might try unchecking contact syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling contact syncing.
iCloud doesn't change anything to do with non iCloud content, contact hotmail to resolve your hotmail problem.

Outlook no longer syncing with iPhone and Mac??

I was formerly syncing Outlook with iPhone just fine on my Mac...now it's not working!! I think I had to do something via iCal. Whatever it was it's not working and need help ASAP! (no need for iCloud and know that does not work!!!)

I have the same problem too. My iphone is not syncing with my addressbook on the mac, no matter what I try, it is very very frustrating!!

IPhone syncing on PC and Mac

I have a Vista PC and sync my Outlook succesfully. I have my iTunes on a mac. I would only like to sync my music from the Mac to the iPhone. When I try to do that iTunes tells that it sync everything. I don't want that, only my music. How can I do that?

On the tabs make sure that only music is checked to sync. Uncheck address book and everything else.

Weather and stocks not in sync on iPhone and Mac

Dear community,
I had my Mac OSX 10.10 in sync with my old iPhone 4S (iOS 8) regarding the inbuilt weather and stocks app.
Now I've got a new iPhone 6, and the sync connection is lost. No new weather locations or stocks are synced from Mac to iPhone or vice versa.
Of course I am logged in on both devices with the same iCloud account. Any idea?
Thanks!

How can email sync between iphone4 and mac?

I want to read email once on either my iPhone4 or Mac, then delete the email from BOTH DEVICES. I don't want to read the same email on my iPhone4 and my Mac.
Do I need to manage this with my internet service provider (in thsi case Cox), or are there setting in iPhone 4 to take care of this duplicate email phenomenon?
Thanks.

it will only remove deleted mails when you sync it with the computer
and only one accounts that are set as sync accounts so not when you set them up on the iphone itself
in which case it's a standalone account not a sync one
synced accounts are created in the info tab on the iphone when connected to itunes
otherwise you have to make sure that your email account is pop3 rather then imap and that it's set to delete
mails from server when downloaded that should work
but it needs to be set on both the iphone and the computer

Sync iPad 2 and Mac Office 2011

Hi, how can i sync my iPad 2 with Mac office 2011( contacts and calendar) in iMac? I can't find the voice in iTunes.

Is this not what you need to do?
1. Without connecting your iPad to your computer -
A) Install iTunes / make sure the latest version of iTunes is installed.
B) Go to the Store tab and click on "Authorise This Computer".
C) Go to Edit, click on Preferences and click on Devices. Put a check mark in the box next to "Prevent iPods/iPhones/iPads from syncing automatically". Click OK and close iTunes.
2. Connect your iPad to your computer -
A) Start iTunes (if it does not do so automatically).
B) Right click on your iPad under Devices in the left column. Select "Transfer purchases".
C) When the transfer has completed, right click on your iPad again and select "Backup".
D) When the backup has completed, left click on your iPad, click on the Apps tab, and put a check mark in the box next to "Sync Apps", and then click on "Apply" (bottom right).
E) Unless you want to always do a manual sync (as I do), go back to Edit, Preferences and uncheck the box next to "Prevent your iPod.....".
F) Finally, on your iPad, check that everything is syncing properly. If not, go back to iTunes and check all settings.
NB You should not lose any apps. However, any 'purchased' missing apps can be downloaded again FOC. As with updates, this must be done with the Apple ID under which they were originally 'purchased'.
