  • Sync to two calendars and address books?

    I have a Mac at home with my calendar, contacts, music, photos, movies, etc. I have a PC at work with more calendar and contacts info. I tried to sync my iPhone with both - hoping to keep all three calendars in sync (I used to do this with my Treo 650, there were some hiccups but it generally worked).
    The first time it seemed to work because lots of discrepancies popped up that needed to be resolved. No surprise there, I figured that would only have to be done once.
    But now when I connect my iPhone to my PC it says it's synchronizing but it doesn't really do anything. None of the calendar or contact data is synced at all. It doesn't complain at all either. I reset the sync history and even deleted previous backups. iTunes on the PC did re-backup my phone but still didn't sync anything.
    Oddly, iTues sees Outlook but my calendars and groups are not enabled for me to limit syncs to, say, my "work" calendar.
    Here are some of my settings:
    - Windows XP with Outlook 2003
    - auto-sync is off
    - set to sync only checked items
    - On PC, the only syncs requested are under "info" tab
    - haven't tried the advanced "replace info on this iPhone yet"
    Any ideas?

    Hi - I sync my home iMac and my work PC w/ XP to the iPhone daily.
    First, make sure before you sync that the tab next to info (I can't look right now) has the calendar and contacts that you want to sync checked. It always works for me. When given the choice, you wants to select merge the data.
    For calendar items:
    . On the PC under Outlook -- you Mac calendar items will be merged into your Outlook calendar.
    . On the Mac - your Outlook calendar items will be maintained separately.
    For Contacts:
    . On the PC - your Mac contacts will be merged into your Outlook contacts.
    . On the Mac - your Outlook contacts will be part of your overall AB contacts. You can still, however, maintain separate groups.
    Hope that helps.

  • Why won't my Mac with Mt Lion update my calendar and address book through iCloud

    Why won't my Mac w Mt Lion update mt Calendar and Address book through the Icloud?

    Are you really still running Snow Leopard (10.6.8) as shown in your profile? If so, that's why. Full use of iCloud needs at least Lion 10.7.2 or Mountain Lion.
    If you have upgraded to Mountain Lion and forgot to update your profile, here are some things to check:
    Is it on a network?
    Is it signed into iCloud? The same iCloud Account?
    Are Contacts and "Calendars & Reminders" checked in the iCloud and same account's "Mail, Contacts & Calendars" panels of System Preferences?
    Are you looking at the correct accounts in Calendar and Contacts?

  • Why can't touch Sync with Vista Calendar same as iCal file

    Why in the world can't the touch sync with vista calendar? it exports the same ics file as iCal. I'd rather not spend the absurd money for Outlook 2007 just to backup my calendar so I don't lose it in firmware updates.
    Also it would be very nice to edit my calendars on my computer as well.

    With Windows, iTunes can only sync files from Outlook, and nothing else.
    It can only do it properly through Outlook, as iTunes is only configured to find the files in Outlook at that time, and no other program.

  • How can I share the same music but separate calendars and address book for 2 users on the same computer?

    Can anyone help to answer if I can share the same music account on itunes but still maintain separate calendars and address books on the same computer?

    Make sure each user has their own computer login.
    Copy the entire /Music/iTunes/ folder to /Users/Shared.
    Hold Option and launch iTunes.
    Select Choose library and select /Users/Shared/iTunes/ folder.
    Quit iTunes and log into other user.
    Hold Option and launch iTunes.
    Select Choose library and select /Users/Shared/iTunes/ folder.
    That is all you need to do.
    Any changes in iTunes by one will be seen by all others (since you are using the same library).
    All users will have their own Contacts & Calendars and all other info.
    If you are using Fast User switching, you must quit iTunes before switching users if others wish to use iTunes.

  • My iPad 2 only keeps a set number of emails for me to view eventually deleting from the screen. How do stop this as it syncs with my phone and mac book pro neither of which do this?

    My iPad 2 only keeps a set number of emails for me to view eventually deleting from the screen. How do stop this as it syncs with my phone and mac book pro neither of which do this?

    Thanks for that. Much more constructive than the last comment. It's only the restriction code I can't recall, not the access passcode. So I can currently access the device, just not age restricted content. Does that's make a difference? I also wondered if anyone knew how many attempts you get to try to get it right. Now tried 21 times and so far nothing bad has happened but I am concerned I'll eventually be completely locked out of the device. That doesn't seem in the spirit of things though. Surely it's foreseeable that a child could repeatedly try to guess the code so I can't see that it would be right to lock the device down completely in that circumstance, particularly if the access code is being typed in correctly every time.
    Thanks

  • My iPad is not updating calendar and address book.  My iMac and iPhone are fine. What is wrong?

    My iPad is not updating calendar and address book.  My iMac and iPhone are fine. What is wrong?

    Reset the device. If it doesn't work try removing your account and adding it again. If that doesn't work then try restoring the device to factory settings by pluggin into iTunes and clicking "Restore".

  • Iphone no sync with itunes 7.6 & address book or calendar

    iphone 1.1.3 will not sync with itunes 7.6 and address book, or calendar.
    iphone will not sync to any of the mac I have, it will start to sync when I choose address, calendar, etc, and quit in a few seconds, with no sync.
    I tried all the recommendations, and as well re-installing clean itunes. Some folks attributed this to the latest Mac OS 10.5.2 upgrade. In any case, anybody could help please, the frustration level is all time high.
    Thanks, Gabriel

    yes it is, if you go to www.iphoneatlas.com/ among other search on google, you will find that there are a lot of folks with the same problem, if you go to macnn web site, as well there are comments.
    I restored the iphone, re-installed itunes more than a couple of times, use two different macs, different cables. Follow the recommendations on this site and others. Nothing seems to work. Therefore I assumed that there is something on the upgrade 10.5.2 that screw up the sync. That is the feeling of the rest of the folks that have the same issue and comments on macnn and iphoneatlas.
    Thanks for responding, Gabriel

  • Tungsten T5 iSync, HotSync, Missing Sync for iCal, Mail and Address Book

    I have just been given an old Palm Tungsten T5 and have been looking at the various options available to make it do what I need with regard to syncing it with my G5 PPC iMac with 10.4.11.
    I use the T5 only when I am away (from the iMac) and travelling and would like a set- up that allows me to sync, in this order of priority:
    iCal, including annual events such as birthdays, and differently colour-coded calendars and, if possible, to dos although these are less important
    Mail
    Address Book, in which I really only have e-mail addresses
    According to some old threads on the subject, Missing Sync appears to be the program of choice for syncing iCal and Address Book, but not Mail. Instead there appears to be something called Mail.App Conduit 2.0.1 requiring at least Palm Desktop 4, and presumably HotSync.
    Is there a single program that will sync all three of these Mac applications effectively? If not, am I going to have to (buy and install and then) uninstall Missing Sync and Palm Desktop (or HotsSync) alternately?
    Is iSync a real option?
    Or is there some clever way of using one or more programs to start with and then switch over to just one?
    I would be grateful for any advice as to how to deal with this. Thank you.
    Nick

    I don't know if you can do this with the Centro. I should have mention that I was talking about webOS (Pre and Pixi). To sync with webOS you need Mac OS 10.5 or later for iCal, and 10.6 for Address Book.

  • Deleted sync framework, now ical and address book don't work

    In an attempt to get rid of all the isync and .mac things on my mac I deleted some sync files that I need. I deleted the sync framework and sync services out of my system/library folder. Now ical and address book won't open. The crash log says it needs the syncservices framework and privateframework. Could somebody help me out as I obviously need those programs. I tried copying those file from my g4 imac to my intel but that didn't work. I refuse to reinstall the system again. (I make lots of mistakes, but I gotta learn, right?) Help is appreciated. Thanks

    ProwessLegacy,
    Welcome to Apple Discussions.
    Based on your description, if you refuse to reinstall the system again, may I suggest an Archive and Install as an alternative. It can preserve user and network settings with minimal disruption to your current installation.
    You will have to reapply subsequent updates but it will be less of hassle than digging around for replacements for unknown missing components.

  • Can Icloud sync with google calendar and gmail?

    We use google calendar at my office and share it with our staff. I thought we would be able to sync those calendars with icloud and google. Before icloud, I set up an exchange account on Ipad, iphone, imac and it works well for calendar and email.  I thought I could replace that sync with icloud, but it seems to not be designed that way. Should google calendar and gmail users stick with google?

    THANK YOU ithos! 
    I have searched and searched to try and find a way to sync my Google calendars with iCloud.
    You don't exactly say how to make this happen, but you gave me enough nuggets to put it together.  Thank you for responding and helping me put it all together.
    I have 5 Google calendars (Family, Work, Church, Extended Family Birthdays, US Holidays).  My wife, two different assistants and I all share and update the calendars.  I want all this to continue since it affects every aspect of my life.  I sit at a PC at work and need to be able to view all those calendars during the work week, I also need to be able to view and edit from work (pc), iPhone, wife's iPhone, assistants computers, and our home (mac).  So, staying Google - for now, is what I need. 
    I just upgraded to the 4S and Siri is one of the main reasons.  Without iCloud syncing with my calendars Siri is USELESS with calendaring stuff.  So, I have to have Siri able to view my calendars as well. 
    So, with that info, here's how I got it all to work. 
    For those of you who need a start to finish explanation, here it is:
    1. Computer running the OS Lion (mine's an iMac)
    2. Open iCal on the Mac
    3. Open your Google Calendar
    4. In iCal go to iCal --> Preferences --> Accounts. 
    Make sure iCloud is listed under Accounts.  This was my default, so I didn't have to make any changes.  If yours lists something different, sorry.  I don't know how to change it.  But I believe this is a KEY component as ithos above mentions that the subscription be 'located' on iCloud.  
    5. In iCal go to Calendar --> Subscribe
    This will force a pop up asking you for the URL of the calendar you are trying to subscribe to. 
    Where do you find this URL?    I found this article from 2006 that gives the low down:
    http://www.tuaw.com/2006/04/13/howto-subscribe-to-a-google-calendar-using-ical/
    Don't worry, even though it's from 2006 it still works.  Here are the steps in a nutshell, but you should read the short article so you don't miss anything.
    6. In Google Calendar you need to dig into EACH calendar that you want to 'Subscribe to' and find the unique URL for that calendar.  This will allow you to then force iCal to look at and scrape the data from this calendar as often as every 5 minutes.  As you follow the articles steps (they are very easy) then your iCal calendar will populate with the Google calendar data from the calendar you subscribed to.  I had to do this for EACH calendar I wanted to show up on my iCal calendar.
    7.  I then grabbed my iPhone and asked Siri, "What does my day look like tomorrow?"  She responded with all my iCal / iCloud (which are all subscribed to my Google calendars) calendar data.  I smiled
    This ONLY allows the Google info to be pushed to iCal / iCloud.  It doesn't allow the info to go the other way. 
    It won't let Siri manipulate the iCal/iCloud calendar or the Google calendar.  But at least Siri can see what's already there.  So, a step in the right direction. 
    Good luck!

  • Syncing issues with 3GS ical and address book

    I have been using Entrourage 2008 with success for a good few months - had a few issues to start with but thought I'd cracked it!  However, I have now found that when I syn my 3gs I have to ensure that I tick replace information in the itunes sync before I sync.  If I don't then I get hundreds upon hundreds of duplicate entries in calendar and .. any new contact details entered onto the iphone are wiped out this way - so how can I sync with combining the information without bringing back duplicates to the calender.  Please help!  Driving me batty! 

    The other thing I have a problem with is iCal.  Even though I have successfully synced the iphone with iCal - there is 'nothing' in the iCal calendar at all!! But it all shows exactly right on the iphone!!  It appears to be drawing the sync via iCal taking it from Entrouage - must be!  ..  there are no entries at all in iCal and only one Calendar called Entrougage.  Completely confused!!  Thought Google Calendar may be of better help so I have just tried that and can't import directly from Entrouage only from iCal and of course it tells me that there is nothing in iCal...  Uuummm ????

  • Do I want to sync with Outlook or Windows address book?

    I currently have all of my contacts in outlook, but I never use outlook at all.
    Is there anything in iTunes that allows you to save and sync your contacts?
    Or do you always have to use outlook?
    Whats this Windows address book?
    Perhaps that might work better for me since I am not going to be using outlook?

    With Windows, the supported applications for syncing contact information is Outlook 2003 or 2007, or the Windows Address Book or Windows Contacts - which is the address book used by Outlook Express with XP, and with Windows Mail with Vista - which is the name change for Outlook Express with Vista.
    Is there anything in iTunes that allows you to save and sync your contacts?
    iTunes serves as the conduit only for syncing contact information between your iPhone and the supported application on your computer.

  • Syncing iPhone to iCal and Address Book and vice versa do not work

    I am a 6 year Mac user and a 1 1/2 year iPhone user. What I am about to tell you should have been addressed long ago. When I sync my iPhone to my iMac only the applications and music sync. Neither data from the iCal or Address Book sync either way. I used to be able to sync appointments from my original iPhone to iCal, but my 3G phone does not sync at all. Could you tell me where to turn or what to do. I think I need to fix it.
    And, how do I change the calendars on the iPhoen. All events are on the same calendar and I can't figure out how to specify a calendar for an event. You would think I would know this by now, but I don't......Thanks so much

    If you have selected the Address Book and iCal under the Info tab for your iPhone 3G sync preferences to sync contact info and calendars with and this is not working, try resetting the sync history on your Mac, which is done via iSync preferences with the iSync application located in your Applications folder.
    Quit iTunes, the Address Book, and iCal first. Launch iSync and to to iSync preferences. After selecting reset sync history, restart your Mac and try syncing this data again.
    When creating a new calendar event, there is a selection for which calendar you want to place the new event in if you have multiple calendars.
    If you have multiple calendars, you can select the calendar you want to create the new event in. After launching Calendar, there is a Calendars selection at the top to view all calendars. You can select a calendar to view all entries for that calendar only and for entering a new event for that calendar. Or select All Calendars to view the events for all calendars. When creating a new event with All Calendars selected, you can choose which calendar with the new event entry.

  • Lost Calendar and Address Book off Desktop
