Sync with OS X 10.6.8 and OS X 19.9.4

I have been syncing an IPad and two IPhones via WiFi on my desktop Mac running OS X 10.6.8. Recently I have acquired a MacBook Pro using OS X 10.9.4. Is it possible to sync the desktop, lapto, iPhones and IPad using WiFi, rather than the Cloud?

I currently use an iPhone, an iPad, and a Mac computer for business. The three devices have Contacts Managers that sync with each other through both Google and through Mobile Me. Currently, this has created a mess of duplicate contacts. Please advise me on the steps necessary for removing these duplicates and establishing a syncing solution that doesn't regenerate the duplicates. There are several applications available that remove duplicates, but I am not sure which ones work or don't work. I want information on this, but most importantly I want to understand how to fix this problem permanently. Also, I read somewhere that Mac's new operating system, Lion, can help deal with duplicates. I don't have Lion, but I would be willing to get it, if this would fix the problem.

Had the same problem with 4 devices (two computers, an iPhone and an iPod). The solution is simple: open the Address Book application in your mac, ask it to locate duplicate entries (under one of the top menu items, "edit" I think), and then ask it to consolidate them: it took me all of three seconds after I figured it out: worked like a charm! PS: if you have more than one mac with unconected Address Books, repeating the operation in the second one may be a good idea.

My HTC no longer syncs with my calendar on my office and home computers.

The message that came up on both my office and home computer monitors stated that the sync with google calendar could not initialize and "click here" for an explanation. I clicked here, and that linked me to support.google.com. And that said Google was no longer going to support the Google Sync. There was a lot of other gobbledy gook which, to me, said that Google would still let you sync, but you had to sign up for the Google Apps for Business, Education, and Government. And, this means they are going to charge you for the ability to sync. Does anyone have a solution for this? The title to the Google link was "Google Sync End of Life."

It's strictly a google issue - not a Verizon issue. Technically, your HTC actually IS SYNCING FINE but there is nothing to sync because GoogleSync is not doing its job and it is by google's decision.
If you want google calendar sync functionality off web on a desktop (meaning not in a browser), you will need to pay. You can pay google or get an account with an MSExchange host (under $10/month) and get your calendars to sync. However, if you are paying anyway, I would use google.

I got a new iphone- went to sync with itunes just to get music and it restored my phone to my old phone's settings. Lost everything I put on it this weekend (including ALL my pics). Is there any way to unsync it so I can get all of that back?

In short. No, you cannot unsync. If you had a back up from your old iPhone you cand restore from a back up.
In iTunes go to Edit > Preferences > Devices > and select the latest back up.
Before you synced your phone did you have it set up with the PhotoStream or iCloud? The pictures would be saved there. Or if you had them sync to a file on your computer.

Although you say you have let the battery drain, was it for long enough? Since nothing else that you've tried so far has worked, I suggest that you leave the iPod unplugged for at least four days, preferably a week. That way, if something is stopping the iPod from turning the screen on, then whatever it is will drain the battrey. However, since the screen isn't on, that may take longer than if the screen was on.
Then, after that time, plug the iPod into a power source and leave it alone for at least thirty minutes. Only after thirty minutes will it show any signs of life, but you should leave it until it is fully charged before trying to use it.
If you get to this stage, the fact that the battery has drained will cause the iPod to reset when it springs back to life.
Let us know how you get on.

My iphone contacts got synced with my daughter's ipod contacts and she deleted my contacts and now they are gone from my iphone. How do I recover my contacts?

First, your daughter needs her own iCloud account, otherwise her ipod will sync will all your data (email, calendars, contacts...). If you have a backup or a copy on your computer, you could turn off iCloud syncing on your iphone, then restore from your contacts via iTunes. After you get a new account for daughter, you can then turn on iCloud.

Connect your device, select it in the left-hand column, then change the settings on the various tabs to sync the media content your library to the device. Anything already on it may be removed. If that would be a problem see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

Sync with Outlook 07 on one computer and Palm Desktop on another?

Hi! Here goes...Can you set up a Palm Centro to sync with one computer with Outlook (07) and another with Palm Desktop? One computer is at home (Outlook) and the other is my work laptop which does not use Outlook at this point. I would like to sync regularly with both. Also....since my work might eventually switch to Outlook - can I change this syncing option at that point and sync with Outlook 03 on one computer and Outlook 07 on another?
Thanks for all your assitance!

Hello dcusuman and welcome to the Palm forums.
The answer to your questions is yes. You can sync your Centro to Microsoft Outlook 2007 on your home PC and then sync to Palm Desktop on your work issued computer. Later on, if your company switches to Microsoft Outlook 2003, you will be able to use a shortcut in your Palm program group to switch the Palm Desktop PIM conduits to the Outlook conduits.
I am going to assume that you are going to be using Palm Desktop 6.2 that comes bundled on the Centro software CD. If you do, there is no reason to download or install the Outlook 2007 conduit update from the Palm website. That update is intended for the older Palm Desktop 4.x and HotSync Manager 6.x.

My computer says it's been synced with another device besides my own, and it wont let me do anything in itunes until I either start up the device as a new one, or restore from another back up, and i dont know what to do!

I got the new ipad several weeks ago, and since i had the ipad 2 before it, i transfered the data from it to my computer and gave the ipad 2 (techinally new since it had nothing on it) to a family member. Now, when I go to itunes on my computer with the new ipad, it says that the computer has already been synced with another device, and my only two options are to set the ipad up as a new one or to restore from a backup (my up-to-date backup for the new ipad does not come up on itune's list of backups that went to my computer). So now because of this, there is no way i can put anything from my computer to the ipad, or even look at it through Itunes on the computer! Is there any other option for me?! I need help now!!

I found this article some time ago when I was trying to help someone else in this same situation. This is a copy and paste from the website. The website is provided below for you to read before you try this.
Plug your phone into iTunes
Click setup as a new device
Immediately unplug your phone from the computer
Give it about 30 seconds and iTunes will give a message (I don’t remember the specific, but regarding you unplugging the device and it not completing)
Plug your phone back in
Viola! no restore occurred and you can access everything again
This computer has previously synced with an iPhone or another iOS device.

Touch Ipod won't sync with my Itunes music (latest version) and....

1) I just replaced my ipod with the touch ipod...and it won't snyc anything from Itunes (and I have the latest version)and I've checked all the drivers, programs I need, so don't have a clue as to what to do next.
2) I'm in corporate housing and have Wayport_Access as my wireless provider. I can't get into the Itunes store because I haven't been able to figure out how to fill out all the "settings" information that's required, specifically I don't know the "router" and the "search domains" (don't have any idea what the last one is). I've gone into all the properties of the internet connections and got all that I needed except the two and when I search "help" router comes up but nothing that tells me how to identify it on my ipod and search domains doesn't even come up in help.
HELP!

Hello and Welcome to Apple Discussions.
1. Could you give some specific details of what does and doesn't happen when youy try to sync. Do you have Auto-syncing, or are you manually managing music?
2. You don't need to enter these. Go into Settings > WiFi > and switch WiFi on. Then pick your SSID (network name) from the list that appears. Enter your WEP key/password or WPA password.
The router details etc should be filled in automatically.
cheers

Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for $199 for 64 GB 4G and $99 for the other 4Gs. They do not fix yours.

Catalog partially and randomly synced with disc. Have to find and sync A LOT. Help! :(

I am just getting started with LR4. After installation, the catalog is only partially and randomly synced with my hard drive. (Windows 7) It seems I have to find and sync way too many files. There are some files which don't appear in the catalog at all. So I uninstalled and reinstalled the program and the problem is the same. Did I miss something or do I have a corrupt program? Can I find and sync my entire pictures file at once?

Well, that's a clear indication that the files in question indeed are alreaday somewhere in your catalog; Lightroom is usually right about that. They might not be in the place you expect them to be though.
You might want to look carefully through the folder structure in Lightroom and see if there are any strange folders you don't remember creating.
One thing that might have happened during one of the imports is that instead of choosing 'add' in the import window, you had 'copy' selected. When doing that, files end up in the place defined in the right hand column of the import window. Depending on what was selected (or what was there as default), LR has created a folder e.g. with the date of the pictures as name, inside an other folder, etc.
I encountered this kind of problem myself. An example of what happened:I have my files in folders named by date, in hierarchical year-month-day structure. Using the 'Import' function, I wanted to 'add' the '2011-05-12' to my '2011-05' folder, but erroneously selected 'copy'. Due to the selection I made last time I 'copied' files on import, the folder ended up in the folder '2011-04' - which I didn't notice at first. After the import, I couldn't find the 2011-05-12 folder, and when trying to import the whole 2011 folder with all of its subfolders, it told me that there are no pictures to import as all were already in the catalog. Like in your case, only unchecking 'don't include suspected duplicates' let me see the missing files.
So try to see if you can find folders where they shouldn't be or folders with unusual names. If that's the case, remove them from the catalog, and your problems will disappear.

Sync with only one iTune/iPod account and have EVERYTHING EARSED

I've up dated to 7.11 and when I plug my iPod 40G photo in, I get message that you can only have one iTune/iPod per computer account...trouble is that THIS IS THE COMPUTER I started my iPod with!! Now it wants to sync and earse all my songs but better yet 8,000 songs are missing in the library!!
I also have 3 other iPods and none will be allowed in the library!
HELP!!!!

Connect your iPod to your computer. When you get the message that it is linked to a different library and asking if you want to link to this one and replace all your songs etc, press "Cancel". Pressing "Erase and Sync" will irretrievably remove all the songs from your iPod. Your iPod should appear in the iTunes source list from where you can change the update setting to manual and use your iPod without the risk of accidentally erasing it. Also when using most of the utilities listed below your iPod needs to be enabled for disc use, changing to manual update will do this by default. Check the "manually manage music and videos" box in Summary then press the Apply button: Managing content manually on iPod
You can use a keyboard command to prevent your iPod auto-syncing with iTunes. While connecting the iPod to the computer on Windows with iTunes 7 installed hold down the Control and Alt keys (or Shift + Ctrl keys in older versions). This will stop the iPod from auto-syncing with iTunes and the iPod will appear in the source list. Wait until you are sure the iPod has mounted, and that it will not auto sync and then you can let the keys go. This may take between 20 to 30 seconds depending on your computer: iTunes 7 Keyboard Shortcuts for Windows
Once you are safely connected if you can't reinstate your library from your computer then there are a few things you can do to restore your iTunes from the iPod. If you have any iTMS purchases the transfer of purchased content from the iPod to authorised computers was introduced with iTunes 7. A paragraph on it has been added to this article: Transfer iTunes Store purchases using iPod
The transfer of non iTMS content such as songs imported from CD is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there is a manual method of accessing the iPod's hard drive and copying songs back to iTunes on Windows. The procedure is a bit involved and was written long before iTunes 7 so it requires a little adaptation, also it won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's posted in this thread: MacMuse - iPod to iTunes
If you prefer something more automated then there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod. This is just a selection, you'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos, podcasts and games as well. Have a look at the web pages and documentation, they are generally quite straightforward. You can also read reviews of some of them here: Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes
YamiPod Mac and Windows Versions
iGadget Windows Only
iPod Access Mac and Windows Versions
Music Rescue Mac & Windows
iPodCopy Mac and Windows Versions
TuneJack Windows Only
iPod2PC Windows Only
Whichever of these retrieval methods you choose, keep your iPod in manual mode until you have reloaded your iTunes and you are happy with your playlists etc then it will be safe to return it auto-sync.

Sync with both Mac os 10.4 AND Windows XP at the same time?

After much research AND much frustration with my Moto Q... I have decided on a Palm Centro (the prodical is returning home --- i used to use Palm all the time)
Here is my one question... I use Outlook on my computer at work (XP - office suite) and I can use Palm Desktop (or iCal) on my Mac at home (10.4)
Is it possible to setup the palm to sync with outlook at work and either iCal or Palm Desktop at home so that the same calendar, tasks, contacts, are on work comp, home comp and Centro at the same time? will i make something blow up? I am just trying to get prepped for when I am able to get the centro (8 days and counting).
If nothing else... I haven't been syncing to the Mac at home with the Moto Q and so I am really not 'out' anything... just wanted to know if it could be done?
anyone out there doing this?
Post relates to: Centro (Verizon)

yeah... i was thinking Cabled sync. I just want to be able to make changes at work on outlook, sync them with my centro, take my centro home, and sync it with my mac (using palm desktop OR iCal -- suggestions?!) and have the information the same in both places!
I am wondering if the centro, unlike my iPod, will allow me to sync in two places (not at the same time) and possibly even with different software (outlook and palm)
Thanks!
