Syncing emails between iphone and macbook

E mails currently arrive in my inbox on the Mac, and on the iphone. Can anyone advise what settings I need to use so that when I delete an email from either phone or Mac, it will also delete from the other.
Thanks

You are in the wrong forum. This forum is dedicated to Numbers '09. You also have not mentioned what type of mail account it is. Some mail account types cannot be set up to sync, you have to delete emails from each device independently.

How do i sync emails between iPad and Macbook Pro

I have the iiPad2 with WiFi. I remember that I used iSync in the past between my Macbook and desktop unit. I also am signed up with me.com. Can anybody please advise me what's the best way to sync my emails? I use Apple's mail program. Thanks.

iSync has never synced email or anything between Macs.
To sync email you need to set your account up as IMAP (not POP3) on your iPad and Mac.
If you are using your MobileMe email address and have configured your MobileMe account on both Mac and iPad, then your email is automatically in sync.

Issues with iCloud - syncing Notes between iPhone and Macbook

Why won't my Notes sync between my Macbook Pro (Mountain Lion) and my iPhone 5? The iPhone and the Macbook Pro are both linked to the same account, iCloud is turned on on both, and I've tried signing in and out of iCloud.com, but it doesn't seem to work.

First check that all your settings are correct, that notes syncing (mail and notes on a computer) is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
Make sure the notes you are adding are added to your 'iCloud' account and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud account (you can do this by checking in accounts on an iOS device, or the left side panel in mail on a computer), non iCloud notes will not sync.
If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your notes are in the iCloud group, you might try unchecking notes syncing (mail and notes on a computer) in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling notes syncing.

How do I sync Notes between iPhone and Macbook, preferably using a cable?

I was running Lion before I upgraded to Mavericks. I would sync notes via iTunes using a cable.
My understanding is that you have to use WiFi and iCloud with Mavericks, which if true is a really dumb limitation and a problematic one. I do not have WiFi at home and often not when traveling. But I do have a cable and my Macbook.
Is there no way to sync Notes with a cable?

At a standstill on a solution so I retried other suggestions I have found on various threads. I have done this specific process multiple times but luckily this time it worked. What helped was - on MBP went to Settings > iCloud then unchecked Notes. Said ok to delete Notes from MBP (my most recent version is on my iPhone). Waited about 5 min then went back to Settings > iCloud checked Notes, said ok to merge and now my Notes on iPhone and MBP are the same. Will have to see what happens. I had my phone connected to MBP vis USB and used wireless during process. Hope this helps with your problem also.

Syncing Contacts between iPhone and Macbook

I recently added contacts on both my iPhone and on my Macbook. However, the new contacts placed on the iPhone won't sync to the address book contacts and the contacts on my Macbook won't sync to my iPhone. How can I go about resolving this problem?

Assuming you have sync contacts with the Address Book selected under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes, try resetting the sync history on your Mac. This is done via iSync preferences with the iSync application if your Mac is not running Lion.

ICloud Sync issues between iPhone and MacBook

I have a peculiar problem. I have iCloud turned on for Contacts, Calendar and Notes between my iPhone 6P and my MacBookPro running OS X 10.10.2. If I make a change or add an entry on the MBP, it does not show up on the iPhone until I make a change to something on the iPhone, then the iPhone changes go to the MBP, and the MBP changes then, and only then, appear on the iPhone.
I have the same iCloud account on both devices. Very confused. (I have not done anything regarding Family Sharing, and I do have the iCloud drive turned on.)
Any clues?

Syncing audiobook between iPhone and MacBook

Hello,
is it somehow possible to sync the current position of an audiobook between MacBook and iPhone?
E.g. if I listen to an audiobook on my MacBook and want to continue on my iPhone I need a way to sync the current time.
Does anyone know, if there's a way?

Sync Mail between iPhone and Macbook?

I'm brand new to Macs. I typically read my emails from the Mail app on my iphone. However, when I open Mail on my macbook, all of those emails that I've already opened are marked as unread. Does anyone know how I can sync my phone and computer so that everything I open on one device is open on the other device?

You need an IMAP account.
With an IMAP account, all server stored mailboxes are kept synchronized with the server automatically with each email client used to access the account.
For received messages with a POP account, there is option to not remove the messages from the server when downloaded by each email client used to access the account. With the Mail.app on a Mac, this is available under the Advanced tab for the account preferences. There is a Never option for POP account preferences with the iPhone's Mail client.
You can email this message with an attachment to yourself to be received by the Mail.app on your Mac after selecting Never for removing messages from the server when downloaded by the iPhone's Mail client.
On your iPhone, go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
Select the POP account.
Select Advanced for the account settings.
Under the Incoming Settings section, select Never for delete from server.

What setting will make sync make my iPhone and MacBook Pro contact cards alike?

What setting will make sync make my iPhone and MacBook Pro contact cards alike? I've been having to key in changes to both devices because sync doesn't sync.

If you really are running Mac OS X 10.7.5 and iOS 6.1.3, you should be able to sync through iTunes, but in current releases you need to use a central contact service like iCloud.
Did you have it working and then not working, or have you never had it working?
Are you trying to use iTunes, iCloud, or something else?

How to sync iCal between iPhone and MacBookPro without MobileMe?

Hello,
How can I sync iCal between iPhone and MacBookPro without MobileMe?
I'm still using MobileMe, but I will stop soon.
I'm using my iPhone in India a lot to create new events or to add new contacts. At the end of the day I would like to able to sync it with my MacBookPro without using MobileMe. Internet Connection is often very bad in that area. The iPhone I only use without UMTS and all that Data Transfering stuff. Best for me would be to sync directly by wire or Bluetooth if possible. If you have a solution with and without Internet Connection, that would be very helpfull to me.

On the Mac, in iTunes with iPhone attached, click on the iPhone section. Go to the "info" tab. There you will see a list of items that can be synced. Make sure that "sync addressbook contacts" is checked, along with the appropriate choices under it.
Don't know what else to say, it works fine here.
Hope this helps.

Syncing contacts, notes and tasks between iphone and Macbook

I have an iphone 4 and a brand new MacBook Pro and I understand how to sync contacts between the two and with my gmail contacts, however there are still some contacts on my phone that are not on my MacBook. I would like to know how I can keep my contacts up to date on both my iphone and Macbook without having to manually enter contacts from one to the other, ex: if I delete a contact on my phone, I want it to be deleted on my Macbook too. Is there a way to do this? Also is there a way to do the same thing with notes and tasks; between the iphone and macbook???

Any idea how to fix that.

Sync mail on iPhone and MacBook with Shaw internet

Shaw provides my internet connection and I can't sync the mail function on my iPhone and MacBook using their pop server. All of the incoming messages are delivered to both the iPhone and MacBook, but if I delete or file an email on one device, I would like it to do the same on the other as well. Does anyone know of a work around for this? The Shaw support site doesn't help and the Apple phone support didn't know hoiw to resolve this either.

Thanks for the quick reply. I checked with Shaw here in Victoria, BC. They don't have an IMAP service and their Exchange server only works on mobile devices. They are working on upgrades to their Exchange server but their customer support guy indicated that it could be several months before they are completed. So anybody in Western Canada that gets their internet from Shaw is out of luck for a while. The only solution for now is that you have to delete on both devices and any filing you do won't sync either.
