Sync without computer

Can I sync my contacts between my iPhone and my iPad through iCloud WITHOUT having them sync with my MacBook Pro? The pictures asnd the custom ringtones always get messed up when I sync them thru iTunes?

if that windows server is running exchange server 2003 SP2 or later you could just setup an exchange account for the friend and he could sync contacts, calendars, and mail.
he should really break down and sync it with a computer... he will need access to a computer every time he updates the software and anytime he needs to re-activate it.

  • What is the procedure for a hard boot of my iPod touch 4th generation without itunes, and without computer, and without iPod data screen.?

    What is the procedure for a hard boot of my iPod touch 4th generation
    without iTunes, and without computer, and without iPod data screen?
    6 months after purchase I updated my iPod touch as recommend by iTunes.
    It has not worked since that day.  It frozen (disabled) with a "connect to
    iTunes" icon displayed...that is the only thing it does.  itunes does not
    recognize the iPod.  My Windows7 computer recognizes an Apple device. 
    Other computers recognize the devise but if iTunes resided on that
    computer it did not recognize the iPod
    I suffered a setback with deep depression and am just now getting out of it enough to do something.  The depression prohibited me from taking action.
    I have done every procedure recommended from Apple help and external
    sources.  I did this thoroughly with help for other owners and IT experts,
    Apple employees etc etc.  I and associates have perform reboots utilizing a
    number procedure using only button on the iPod.  These were unsuccessful
    also have performed.
    Please do not ask me to do the usual.
    Online I saw  a process using the buttons on the iPod to completely
    reformat 
    the iPod.  It was NOT the hold buttons for 10 sec let go of one wait 8 sec
    etc.  I can not find the process now...a friend showed it to me in passing
    I have lost contact with him.  This is the procedure, I believe, that with
    enable me to update and use the iPod. 

    You need an internet connection and likely a computer with iTunes but an iPhone, iPad or iPod touch with the FindMy iPhone App may work by:
    If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone and use Remote Wipe to erase the contents of your device. If you have been using iCloud to back up, you may be able to restore the most recent backup to reset the passcode after the device has been erased.
    You can also wipe the iOS device by installing the FindMyiPhone app on another iOS device and using that app to wipe the device.
    Otherwise
    Disabled
    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
    iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled
    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes       
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:           
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store        
    If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.
    Yo may have to go to an Apple store or a friend's house with an internet connection and iTunes.

  • Photos sync from computer folders, but are in the wrong albums and some photos only appear as a white box?

    On my iPad 2, I'm syncing my photos through iTunes from folders on my computer, as I am a photographer and don't like to use iPhoto and not have direct access to my original files.
    My photos sync without any hassle, but when viewing them on the iPad half the photos present as white boxes or a half photo/half white screen. I tried resetting iPad as a last measure, I've deleted the photo cache etc, to no avail. In fact, the most recent time I tried it didn't fix the white screen, but also added another issue- my photos now are completely mixed up within the albums. Christmas photos and showing in the Easter album and so on, there seems to be no logic in it! As I was given my iPad last month by my father in laws company, they had bought their stock a while ago and it's now out of AppleCare support - even though I've only used it for a month! Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
    My Mac is a 1 yr old MacBook pro running snow leopard. My iTunes was the second oldest version, have just updated to most recent version, but it hasn't fixed anything.

    Updating to the latest Iphoto release solved this. First time it rebuilt the libraries the pics appeared again.

    My guess is that you previously synced the iPhone with a different computer in the past. You will probably want to set up Home Sharing.

  • My itunes says that my ipod is synced with another library when it is not and cannot update or sync without wiping it and all its data

    My itunes says that my ipod is synced with another library when it is not and cannot update or sync without wiping it and all its data
    Can anyone help me

    Syncing 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.
    All media content will be erased during the first sync, 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

  • How do you turn off Auto-Sync without connecting  the ipod  to PC?

    My Purchased Tracks was deleted off my computer, but I still have all of them on my ipod. I have iTunes 7, so I am aware I can transfer all my purchased music from my ipod to itunes. But I know auto-sync is set up, so when I connect it to my computer, won't it automatically sync itunes with my ipod and therefore delete my purchased music on my ipod? Can I turn off auto-sync without connecting my ipod?

    A couple of ways...
    Hold down the Shift + Ctrl keys when you plug in the iPod. (For a PC)
    Or...
    Connect your iPod, but before it starts to sync, click that little X on the right hand side of the ITunes display at the top of the page. (Next to the "Do Not Disconnect" message.)
    Then click box at bottom that says manually manage music.

  • My Wife got an iPhone at work. IT set it up the first time on another machine, they finally install iTunes on her machine but I don't know if she can sync without loosing Photos, SMS, and other things. She had six months of stuff on that phone?

    My Wife got an iPhone at work. IT set it up the first time on another machine, they finally install iTunes on her machine but I don't know if she can sync without loosing Photos, SMS, and other things. She had six months of stuff on that phone?
    The problem is she can't update to new software until she connect to iTunes, but she don't want to loose all that info.
    My question is:
    If she register her apple ID on that new computer, and sync the phone, will she loose everything? or iTunes will back up first (because apple id match) and then sync.
    Otherwise, how can I do it? The closest apple store is 3 hours away. thanks!

    Before you connect to a new PC, make sure that autosync is disabled in Edit/Preferences/Devices, otherwise her phone will be wiped during the following sync.
    If she has data on the phone she wants to save, back up manually:
    Disable autosync in iTunes, connect your phone to her new computer and right click on it in the device list and choose backup. iTunes will backup your phone without syncing. Transfer the 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 phone for the first time.

  • How do I remove photos synced from computer

    How do I remove photo albums synced from computer without losing them on the computer

    If you un-check them in iTunes on the computer then sync, they should be removed from the phone but remain on the computer.
    Why would you completely delete the folders on the computer instead of just moving them?

  • Enabling Wi-Fi sync without  USB cable

    Hi there,
    is there a way to enable Wi-Fi sync without cable? I need this because my main work machine is actually VM and I can't find a way to connect my phone via USB to a VM. Can someone help me? I already lost a lot of hours trying everything to make it work but I'm lost without hope.

    I don't quite understand your issue...in your initial post you state there is no way to connect your phone, by USB cable, to your work computer...now you're asking how to do so...
    Sorry, but you've lost me here...

  • My iPad Air gets a error when I try to backup.   It does sync properly.  My iPhone backs up and syncs without isssue.  I am running latest itunes and iOS 8 versions.  Thank you.

    My iPad Air gets an unknown error when I try to backup.   It does sync properly.  My iPhone backs up and syncs without isssue.  I am running latest itunes and iOS 8 versions.  Thank you.

    Try rebooting your computer and reset the iPad. Press and hold both the Home button and the Sleep/Wake button continuously until the Apple logo appears. Then release the button and let the device restart. You will not lose data doing this. It's like a computer reboot.

  • Need to enable wifi sync without cable

    I am unable to connect my iPod to a computer and therefore need to enable the wifi sync without connecting it. Is this possible? If so, how do I do it?

    Sorry.  To enable WiFi synch you have to connect to the computer you synch to.  If you do not have a comuter to connect to, then you also do not have a comuter to synch to, so its really a non-issue.

    If you Restore using last computer you synced to the password will be removed and you can restore the last backup on your computer, which includes your camera roll.
    If you enabled Photo Stream in iCloud your photos are in Photo Stream.
    If you had installed one of the many apps that can upload photos to a photo sharing site and had used it you will have your photos.
    If you have done none of these things you are out of luck. The phone comes with many tools to preserve content, but you have to use them.

  • Itouch unable to sync after computer upgrade

    I recently had my computer upgraded which included wiping my old system, now my itouch library won't sync. I stored my entire library on my itouch during the upgrade and want to put it back. It states my computer is "NEW" and will not let me sync from the itouch to the computer, only offer ability to sync from computer to itouch wiping the itouch which is not what i want. If I loose my library on the computer that is fine but want to save what is on itouch.
    Please help

    The ipod touch is not a backup device.
    Did you wipe your computer without making sure that you had a backup copy of all dos/pics/music/etc?
    What about your regular backup of your computer?
    Use your backup copy to put everything back on the computer.
    When you sync the ipod, it will be erased and the music replaced with the music from the new computer.
    If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup ( not good), then you can transfer itunes purchases - without syncing: File>Transfer Purchases
