Synching bookmarks on .mac and iPhone

I thought I would try this forum since the volume on the iPhone support page is so great that unless a question is answered right away, it goes to the bottom, and never gets addressed.
Plus this question applies to synching for .mac account.
When I synch Safari bookmarks, whether it be for .mac or iPhone, I end up with double bookmarks. That is every bookmark shows up twice on both my computer and the iPhone and .mac.
Is there a setting I can change to keep this from happening?
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Hello:
If you use iCloud.  I don't use it for a variety of reasons, but that is the purpose of iClod.

  • How to sync bookmarks between Mac and iPhone without iCloud

    How to sync bookmarks between Mac and iPhone without iCloud?
    I bought a new iPhone and i would like to copy my Safari's bookmarks from my iMac (OS X 10.10.3) to my new iPhone (iOS 8.3).
    How to do this, without iCloud?

    You might be able to use Google Calendar to do what you want.  Set up a Google account on the web, set up the MacBook to access the Google account, including calendar, then set up the iPhone the same way.  While I'm using MAvericks, I am also using Google to manage my calendar, since I don't particularly *like* iCloud... And I came from Android to iPhone, but I haven't like iCloud since it was called MobileMe. 
    Oh, and as for sync to iTunes, can't you just use a direct conenction to the computer (either WiFi or cable) to keep the music in control?

  • Calendar synching on Mac and iPhone but NOT on iPad

    Hey,folks! I have a iPhone 4, iPad (third generation ) and a MacBook 2006- snow leopard . Trying to sync my calendars. On the Mac and iPhone is done. But nothing on the iPad . In all the devices I am using the same account. My settings look to be all right, I mean in the "same page". But still, I can't sync my calendar on the iPad . Any idea?
    MacBook, Mac OS X (10.6.8)

    Sorry for misreading, but you can do the same thing for events.

  • ICloud doesn't sync between mac and iPhone...

    Hello all. I have an iphone 4 and I macbook pro which I have just upgraded the OS to OSX Mountain lion.
    I have never really made use of icloud before, but intend to start using it as I intend to get an ipad soon.
    I have gone into icloud on both my mac and iphone and ticked on everything for icloud. However,nothing seems to really sync. My notes don't go between devices. As far as I can tell neither do my photos.
    The only large file on my icloud seems to be backups. However, the only thing in this folder seems to be the back up folder...which only seems to contain infinitiy blade data.
    Any help as to where I'm going wrong?
    regards,
    Matt

    I don't want to trust the iCloud, so I want to sync my PERSONAL Notes on my iPhone (4) just with my iMAC (via iTunes), and not saved in iCloud.
    Yes iCloud is great for syncing/saving common data, but I want to choose what I sync and if I choose not to save in icloud than I want to have the possibility to save it elsewhere.
    Now with Mountain Lion it is not possible anymore to sync between my iPhone and iMac
    More and more companies are going to say/dictate "This and this is good for you!"
    Please Apple, take your Customers serious and let themselve choose what good for them is!
    Thanks in advance!!
    P.S.,
    if there Apple-Customers who have a solution for syncing Notes between MountainLion and iOS please reply! (Thanks)

    cant update apps on my mac or iphone4. asks for password for another account i had on a dell notebook. either i forgot the pass word or its not taking it  . i can download apps and music.  how can i update apps on my mac and iphone 4?

    I had the same problem today and was able to resolve it without having to do a restore or reset. The problem had something to do with my mail accounts. The upgrade reset my mail settings, switching both my gmail and my .mac mail to "archive all mail". I went into the General Settings, disabled that setting, and resynced the phone. The "other" storage allottment dropped back down to less than a gig.
    Before you restore or reset, I would try that first.

  • Looking for an app that works with Mac and iPhone that will set calendar reminders of birthdays in contacts.

    Looking for an app that works with Mac and iPhone that will set calendar reminders of birthdays in contacts.

    Hi ron1098,
    Try my application Dates to iCal. it runs on the Mac, but you can sync the calendar to your iOS device.
    See more about Dates to iCal here. It is £4 shareware with a 2 week demo.
    Best wishes

  • After buying a new Macbook pro and opening an iTunes Match account most of my music is grayed out on my Mac and iPhone. I have not turned on iTunes match on my iPad and all my music is fine.  How do I get my music back????

    The most efficacious way to get your music and other personal data onto your new Mac is to restore it from the backup you made of your old computer. Once that is done you can re-enable iTM on the new Mac and your iPhone.

  • Why can't I get the App "Deskconnect" on my Ipad 3.  It claims to be compatible with Ipad as well as Mac and Iphone?

    Why can't I get the App "DeskConnect" on my Ipad 3.  It claims to be compatible with Ipad, Iphone and Mac.  I was able to download onto Mac and Iphone but it is not recognized for Ipad?

    I liked the idea of this app so I went looking for it and have now installed it on my Mac, iPhone and finally my iPad.
    This app, although it will run on the iPad is actually an iPhone/iPod app, as suggested above. So the only way to get it on my iPad was to search for it as an iPhone app in the App Store app on my iPad. Then it came up as an app that I could install on the iPad.

  • WPA Enterprise Problem Windows 7;  Macs and iPhones working good

    Dear Apple Discussions,
    I have a strange problem within my corpoarte network. I have successfully setup airport base stations with wpa/wpa2 enterprise authentication against an open directory master on apple snow leopard server. Macs and iPhones can connect through this very easily and without problems. Windows Machines seem to have some trouble with this. I have a self signed certificate and a trusted certificate for the server, both are resulting in the same issues. The Windows clients cannot connect. There is no error message on the windows boxes. Here is a snippet from the logfile on the OSX Server radius.log:
    Thu Aug 19 12:49:45 2010 : Error: TLS Alert read:fatal:unknown CA
    Thu Aug 19 12:49:45 2010 : Error: TLS_accept:failed in SSLv3 read client certificate A
    Thu Aug 19 12:49:45 2010 : Error: rlm_eap: SSL error error:14094418:SSL routines:SSL3READBYTES:tlsv1 alert unknown ca
    Thu Aug 19 12:49:45 2010 : Error: SSL: SSL_read failed inside of TLS (-1), TLS session fails.
    This happens everytime and I did not find any possible solution within google search. Do you have any idea?
    Thank you for any help!!
    Nico

    Nico,
    I have run into this problem as well. One additional piece is that in addition to Macs and iPhones, we also have Android phones connecting with no problem.
    The only solution we came up with was to force the windows machine, in this case Vista, to use only our network and eliminate all others. Of course for our windows user that was a problem when he went home because he could not connect to his own home network any longer.
    Unfortunately, that resulted in giving up on the issue for us and forcing the windows guy to plug in via ethernet.
