Synchronizing Notes to iphone (without using iCloud of course)

Hello.
I can't find a way to synchronize Notes to my iPhone directly (using internet based services like iCloud for personal data out of the question of course). How?
Thanks.

Pretty sure, that like many who used to sync through iTunes to Mail, he'd like to sync to his desktop without having to put all his notes onto the internet.
I'd have preferred to do that to, sync through iTunes to Notes on the desktop. However Apple have left no option to do that with the new Notes program on ML. It has to be through an IMAP email account (I'm doing it but its not through iCloud, its through my ISP). I'm not happy about it but I'll live with it. If you don't have a @me.com account, you have to set one up to sync notes, and this will give you another Apple ID as well. I don't want to manage two if I can help it.
With a couple of recent incidents (like the journo who had the lot deleted from MacBook, iPad and iPhone) remember just because it's cloud doesn't mean its totally secure and backed up.

  • Can I transfer my music (including non iTunes purchases) from a single laptop to my iPhone without using iCloud in Lion?

    Before the upgrade I had 25+ GB of music on my iPhone. Now when I sync, it takes a long time to "restore" the music on the iPhone but it reads as "no content" when done. The usage bar for the iPhone in iTunes reads that the phone has 25+GB of "other" data.  Most of my music is from CDs and not from the iTunes Store. Is it now "iCloud" or nothing if you want music on your phone?
    Any device to device work arounds?

    I went to Apple Care with this question after a month went by with no posts here.  The answer is yes, you don't have to go through the Cloud to get music on your devices.  In fact Music Match is not available to libraries with more than 25000 titles.  For those of you experiencing what I mentioned above the solution is to backup your contacts, mail, photos etc. that are on your phone, (the tech at Apple directed me to do this to the Cloud), then "restore" the iPhone to its factory settings and import the backup.  The restore button is in the opening window when the iPhone is connected in the iTunes program.

    Hi Mary ..
    Afraid not but if you decide to use iCloud and you're iPhone is running iOS 8, (according to your profile), hold off until you can upgrade your Mac to Yosemite.

  • Can I download music to my iPhone directly from my computer- WITHOUT using iCloud?

    Does anyone know how to download music from iTunes on your computer onto your phone without using iCloud?  It used to be that I would just plug in my phone, hit sync, and all the music I wanted (which I had selected in iTunes on my computer) would be added to my phone's music library.  Easy peasy.  Now, none of the music actually gets downloaded to the phone- if I'm connected to wi-fi, I can access all those selected songs through the cloud, but if I'm not, then the songs are grayed out in my playlists.  Each song has a little cloud icon next to it, and I can download the songs by tapping that… one at a time.  I talked to Apple support and they told me to go into the iTunes store app and select "download all," which I did try, but given the quantity of songs I have, and the rate at which things were going, it would have taken forever to get them all downloaded.  I have thousands of songs I like to have on my phone, and the point is to be able to listen to them in places without wi-fi (like my car, or on a hike, or an airplane); it is SUPER annoying that I can no longer quickly download all of those songs by simply connecting my phone to my computer.  I have searched high and low in these forums and I can't seem to find a solution; I would really appreciate any help anyone can offer. 
    Some details:  I have an iPhone 6, and I use iTunes on my Mac, and all of my software on both is up to date.  I do not subscribe to iTunes Match, so turning that off (as has been recommended elsewhere) is not helpful to me. 

    Thanks, but I should have clarified:  I already have USB syncing set up with iTunes on my Mac and have been adding music to my iPhone for years that way; now with the latest IOS, it no longer appears to be working.  I follow the exact steps I always have (and which are outlined in the link provided), but no actual music is downloaded to my phone- if I am not connected to a wi-fi network, I cannot listen to my music unless I download it from iCloud.  (And downloading it from iCloud is a laborious task because I have many songs.)

  • Maverick won't permit syncing Address Book or Calendar by USB to iPhone or iPad and permits only syncing by iCloud, which I don't want to use.  Any ideas on how to sync without using iCloud?

    Maverick won't permit syncing Address Book or Calendar by USB cable from my MacBook Air to my iPhone and iPad and permits  syncing only by iCloud.  Mountain Lion permitted this via the Info tab on iTunes.  I don't want to use iCloud.  Any ideas with Maverick on how to sync Address Book and Calendar from computer to iPhone and iPad without using iCloud?

    ymcneil - thanks for the work around. But isn't it amazing Apple forces us to do this to maintain our privacy.
    I live in Australia where there are good privacy laws protecting  citizens. I do not want to be forced to use iCloud when the data sits in  the USA with weaker privacy laws and also able to be seen by the US  Government under the Patriot Act. Further I suspect Apple will  interrogate my contacts and calendar for commercial purposes and I do  not want that either.
    I  chose to synch my calendar and contacts with my iphone and ipad. I have  relied for years on carrying around my phone with my diary on it. I can  no longer do that.
    Whoever  made this decision at Apple has to be someone who knows little about  the world. I can actually see EU regulators getting very annoyed by  this.
    I too woud like the itunes mac to iphone/ipad local backup given back.
    In the meantime - thanks for the work around

  • Syncing contacts with iTunes without using iCloud

    Since the new iTunes Version 11.1.3 it seems not possible to sync contacts, browser bookmarks and other things via WLAN sync. I don't want to see my contacts on Apple servers in order to be synced via iCloud.
    Is there any possibility to sync an iPhone with iTunes without using iCloud. I'm quite angry Apple not leaving the decision on how to sync my iPhone up to me.

    User error.

    Willy, the procdedure you describe works perfectly for AppleTV G1. In fact, I frequently play DTS music discs ripped to my iTunes library as Apple Lossless (ALAC) and synched to the ATV. What happens is that, as far as iTunes and the ATV are concerned, a conventional stereo 16/44 audio file is being played; however my reciever detects the DTS data stream, and instead of outputting static, it decodes the 5.1 channels correctly. This process parallels the way DTS discs were designed to be played back: a conventional CD player is connceted, via digital out, to a DTS-aware reciever/pre-amp and the two channels of static are recognized as 6 channels of DTS-encoded audio.
    However this process will only work if the player (CD, ATV, PC, etc.) sends a "bit-perfect" 16 bit/44.1 khz data stream to the decoding device. In the case of ATV G2 and G3, as has been discussed elsewhere, the unit resmaples all audio - including 16/44 PCM (Redbook CD)  - to 16/48. While this is not a big deal for conventional audio CDs, MP3s, and AAC files, it mangles the fragile DTS datastream and renders it undecodable. The resulting static that you hear is just like the static you would hear if you played a DTS CD on a non-DTS capable system.
    Sadly, I'm not aware of any easy way around this. You could use a program like Foobar (and the DTS plugin) to convert your DTS CDs to 6-ch .wav or .flac file. From there you could transcode the file to AC-3 and then mux it into a video container that ATV supports. You may need add a dummy video track, for iTunes/AppleTV to be ok with the file, though I'm not sure. This may be a lot of work.
    Sorry for the bad news. I wish that the iTunes/ATV ecosystem had better multi-channel audio support.
