Synchronization of iPAD and iPHONE with iMAC and Macbook

Hi,
I am synchrinizing my calendar and contacts through iCloud with my 4 devices (iPhone, iPad, iMac and Macbook). Although it works nicely with the two computers, the iPad and iPhone do not pick up all appointments and that's very frustrating.
Does anyone know how to fix this or is this an iCloud bug that Apple needs to fix?
Thanks
JP

Thanks for the hint. But unfortunately, it does not work. There are still appointments on my Macbook that do not show on my iPhone after I've done what you describe.
Maybe it's because those were invitations I accepted on my Macbook? But technically speaking those should also be synchronized.
I think Apple has some work to do here.
Thanks again for the tip

  • Can I have an iPhone, ipad and MacBook Pro with the same apple id

    Can I have an iPhone, ipad and MacBook Pro with the same apple id. When I use I tunes it get confusing and I have a paid app that needs the same id

    When syncing the iPhone and iPad with iTunes on your computer that is logged in with the Apple ID you plan on using on all three, the Apple ID should be transferred to the iPhone and iPad for the iTunes & App Stores on each device. If not, you'll need to sign out of the existing Apple ID on the iPhone and iPad followed by signing in with the Apple ID you want to use on both.
    Keep in mind that all 3rd party apps include DRM protection which is tied to the iTunes account or Apple ID that was used to download the apps. With an app installed on your iPad and iPhone that was downloaded with a different Apple ID from the one you will be using now, you will need to use that Apple ID and password to install app updates for those apps. Not possible to transfer apps purchased with one Apple ID to another or to merge Apple IDs.

  • HT5622 Due to problems with my original email I changed my apple id email and password months ago.  Suddenly it is reverting to my old email.  How do I get it to totally forget the original? I have iPhone, iPad and MacBook Pro.

    Hey 1Jerry,
    Thanks for the question. You'll want to delete and re-add your iCloud account (utilizing the new Apple ID address). When prompted, opt to keep as much information on your device as possible. The following article provides information on how to do so:
    iCloud: Change iCloud feature settings
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2613
    Turn off iCloud completely
    Depending on whether you want to stop using iCloud on all or only some devices, do one or more of the following:
    On your iOS device’s Home screen, tap Settings > iCloud, then at the bottom of the screen, tap Delete Account.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

  • Since updating my iPhones, iPad and MacBook Pro I'm having problems with Calendars...

    Since updating my iPhones, iPad and MacBook Pro I'm having problems with Calendars - I keep all the details of my work schedule on Calendars but since updating everything I am notified at 9 a.m. before each of my days off. Can someone please tell me how I can stop this? Also, how can I change that time (9a.m.) if I do want to be notified about something?
    Thanks.

    Do you have MMS turn on in Settings?
    Are you provisioned by your carrier to use MMS?
    Lastly, give your phone carrier a call, as MMS is a carrier feature.

  • Can I connect my iPad and MacBook Pro both via an iPhone hotspot?

    First, a little background. I have an aging MacBook Pro (~5 years old), and my netbook was smashed on the way to work last night. My cell phone (not an iPhone) crapped out a few weeks ago.
    So my first priority is to replace my netbook with an iPad. When I can afford it, I also want to upgrade to a new MacBook Pro. I've also been thinking of getting an iPhone.
    One thing that always confuses me is Internet connections. I currently connect my MacBook Pro to the Internet via Verizon and use T-Mobile for my cell phone.
    I was surprised when an Apple salesman told me the iPhone has a "hotspot" that I can use to connect both an iPad and MacBook Pro to the Internet. But an Apple salesman at another store told me the hotspot will connect the iPad.
    Can anyone offer some details? I've been browsing some of the other threads, but I still don't really understand what a hotspot is. Am I correct in understanding that as long as I have an iPhone with me, I can use it to connect my iPad to the Internet? Can I similarly use it to connect a MacBook Pro (either my 4-year-old+ model or a new model)?
    What kind of connection speed does a hotspot offer? I do a lot of websurfing and web design. Would a hotspot connection be about as fast as my current connection via Verizon?
    Also, is the hotspot feature available with either AT&T or Verizon?
    Thanks.

    Your hotspot will be billed by AT&T or Verizon based on your iPhone's model. Only the iPhone 4 from Verizon would allow a Verizon hotspot. Others have posted information revealing that the Verizon 3G connection is somewhat slower than the AT&T service. Also, the Verizon service suspends the use of hotspot when you take a phone call. The AT&T service continues during calling.
    Selecting the hotspot feature under General> Settings> Personal Hotspot will change your data plan from your previous 250MB, 2GB, or unlimited amount to a new 4GB plan that includes tethering. AT&T charges me $45 instead of my Unlimited, but No Tethering Allowed, $30.
    You can connect three devices that have WiFi. Verizon hotspots can connect five. Your speed should be about the same as the iPhone 4 browsing speed on 3G. If your phone is on WiFi, the devices need to connect separately to that WiFi, not to your hotspot. I would love to see a software update that allows my WiFi connection to be shared, so I don't have to manually connect the iPods that my boys use one at a time.

  • My iPhone 4s cannot join a public unsecured network but my iPad and macbook can.  I have reset the network settings twice.  Both times it worked, but only for a few minutes.  What can I do?

    My iphone 4s cannot join a public unsecured network, but my ipad and macbook can with no problems.  I have reset the network settings on the iphone twice.  Both times that fixed the problem but only for a few minutes, then I get the "cannot join network" message again.  Please help!  What can I do?

    Anyone have any ideas or information to help with this?  Any help and consideration is MUCH appreciated.

  • I have an iPhone 4S, iPad and MacBook Air.  I'm looking for an app or program where I can track time spent of specific projects each day and also document details of each project.  Is there anything available that is synced through iCloud?

    I have an iPhone 4S, iPad and MacBook Air.  I'm looking for a program or app that I can sync though iCloud that will allow me to us all of these devices to track time spent on projects each day along with the ability to add specific information about each project.  Any suggestions are appreciated! Thanks!

    I recommend you consider Omnifocus.  It is a task management program which runs on the Mac, Iphone & Ipad. I use it for task management and project management.  It let's you store additional information as well.   I sync all three devices through a Mobile Me account and I can enter data on any device and it is available on all devices.  I believe you can also sync through Dropbox.  I'm not sure that you can sync through iCloud yet.  The link to their website is:  www.omnigroup.com.  There may be less expensive alternatives, but this one meets my needs and syncs very well across all devices.

  • Iphone 5C no longer syncs calendar to iPad and MacBook Air

    I am having syncing problems with my iPhone 5C to my iPad and MacBook Air. I installed the latest updates on all three devices yesterday.  Now my iPhone will only sync to my other devices when I add or delete an event on my iPhone. It does not sync when events are added or deleted on iPad or MacBook Air. When I add or delete an  event on the iPhone then all previous events syncs on my other devices to my iPhone. How do I fix this?

    Yes. I have done everything I can find on Internet. All devices are det the
    same with iCloud on, all calendars, push is on.

  • HT201270 My iPhone was stolen. I have asked the phone company to block it. Do I need to do something to protect my data in my iPad and Macbook from being accessed by the thieves?

    Do I need to do anything to stop the thieves from having access to data in my iPad and Macbook?

    Hi James
    Thanks for your response. I didn't even know I should do this. I stopped using a pin number to use the phone cos it was a nuisance to answer calls.
    The phone has been locked by EE/T-Mobile and I have checked with Find my iPhone and the phone is not connected/not even on.
    You're right about changing passwords. Will get cracking.

  • I have the IPhone, IPad and MacBook, IPad and IPhone share the same Apple ID and Icloud storage. Cannot make ID Change on MacBook as it says the ID is already taken. How can I make all three match?

    I have the IPhone, IPad and MacBook, IPad and IPhone share the same Apple ID and Icloud storage. Cannot make ID Change on MacBook as it says the ID is already taken. How can I make all three match?

    The problem is that all services are bundled with your Apple ID ([email protected]):
    Your iCloud account (Mail, Contacts, Calendars, Reminders, Notes, Backups, etc.),
    also iTunes & App Store purchases (Music, Movies, TV Shows, etc.),
    and the iTunes Match services.
    (I guess that all your devices - yours and your wife's are connected to one iTunes library, right?)
    If you want that your wife gets her own iCloud account for Mail, Contacts, Calendars, etc. but gets also access to your media then you have two set up two things on her device:
    iCloud (Settings > iCloud) with her account (e.g. [email protected])
    and
    iTunes & App Stores (Settings > iTunes & App Stores) with your account (e.g. [email protected]).
    In this case she gets access to your library and could use the same iTunes Match account.

  • How do i erase a corrupt contact list from iCloud,iPhone, iPad and MacBook Pro and restore Address Book backup to all devices and cloud?

    how do i erase a corrupt contact list from iCloud,iPhone, iPad and MacBook Pro and restore Address Book backup to all devices and cloud?
    I saved a corrected, most up to date version of my master Address Book Contacts as a back-up on my Mac Book Pro.
    then in an effort to "simplify my life"  i attempted to sync my I phone contacts - ( pre clean-up version) with my clean list on Mac Book Pro, New I pad and newly available icloud. DUH!! Using iTunes to do the sync caused the clean MacBOOK Pro list to be commingled with the dirty iphone contacts. amd now the whole mess is in the cloud. 
    I need to clear out the contaminated lists from all iplaces, and startover with Back-up on my macbook pro. BUT HOW???
    Help
    Karen

    I had exported an address book backup: abbu
    so since i wrote, i have found my way into the cloud: selected all entries - deleted them all from the cloud.
    This wiped out contacts on my iphone and i pad, and MBP, as well as on the cloud.  I then imported the abbu back into my now empty address book. 
    To repopulate the crowd, i selected all in my address book and created a single card vCard for export to my desktop.  I then dragged that vcard into my empty cloud.  Now my cloud has the same clean contacts as my MBP addressbook.  The cloud then pushed the clean contacts into my empty ipad and iphone contacts. 
    I had to go back to Address Book>preferences>Accounts and Add an I cloud account - but if you accidentally create a second i cloud account - all of a sudden your address book will duplicate itself.  I quickly reversed it by deleting one of the icloud accounts in my Address Book>preferences>Accounts. 
    I created a new entry on my MBP and it is now on all devices and in cloud
    I also created a new entry on my iPhone and it is now in the address book on my MBP.
    I feel empowered!!
    Have i missed anything??

  • Syncing emails across iPhone, iPad and macbook pro

    Can you sync emails across iphone, ipad and macbook pro, so if you delete from one it deletes on all?  If you write an email on one it shows up on all?  If you store something in a folder or flad something it shows up on all?
    Thanks

    Syncing mail is a function on the type of mail account, & requires an IMAP or Exchange account. Not possible with a POP3 account.

  • IMessage sync iPhone, iPad and MacBook Pro

    For some reason iMessage no longer syncs between my iPhone, iPad and MacBook Pro.  How do I re-sync them?
    Thanks!

    Hey there David,
    If you are still not receiving your iMessages between all your ios devices, I recommend the following section of this article:
    iOS: Troubleshooting Messages - Apple Support
    If you aren't receiving iMessages across all iOS devices
    Go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive on each iOS device and make sure that you signed in with your Apple ID. You must use the same Apple ID on each device.
    Go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive > You Can Be Reached By iMessage At and make sure that you selected each phone number and email address you want to use with iMessage.
    If you linked a phone number to your Apple ID with iMessage and the phone number hasn't appeared, follow these steps.
    Sign out of your Apple ID in Settings > Messages > Send & Receive and Settings > FaceTime on all devices.
    If you're linking a phone number to an Apple ID, sign in to iMessage on your iPhone first. Then sign in to the rest of your device one by one with iMessage and FaceTime.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the very best,

  • Sync iPhone, iPad and Macbook Pro contacts

    Hello.
    Everytime I sync my 3 Apple devices (iPhone 4, iPad 2 and Macbook Pro), I get the same contact 3 or 4 times at my iPhone...
    By other way, I want that the iPad and Macbook Pro can have the same contacts as iPhone, because I update my contacts at iPhone everyday. So, the iPad and Macbook Pro must get the iPhone contacts and not the contrary.
    Can you help me on this, please?
    Regards
    Luis Antunes

    Well I answered my own question.  I just deactivated all the other accounts on my iPhone except iCloud, and all the duplicates disappeared.  Before I did this, I merged duplciate cards on the MacBook Pro (from the Contacts Card menu selection).  iCloud needs to be selected as the default account on all your devices, and it seems that other accounts need to be deactivated.  Be careful - deactivating an account also erases entries associated with only that account.
