Syncing iPhone 4s without iCloud. Snow Leopard
Hi,
I just upgraded from the 3g to the 4s and am finding some frustration involved. I went through several 3g's and each time it was a simple matter to plug it into iTunes and all my information synced right over. Most notably, contacts in their entirety, and Safari book marks. When I plug in the 4s it suggests I can do this with iCloud but I'm on Snow Leopard and it appears this trick can only be accomplished with Lion. Right?
I'm more than happy to switch to Lion but I am a student and have some important applications that I haven't determined their ability to perform on LIon. If they don't I would be in hot water at this part of the semester.
Being a student I do a lot of serious research on the internet and make lots of book marks that are nice to have at hand on the iPhone for quick looks. Auto syncing of this is a real plus.
What can I do? As of now I have none of my Safari from MBP on the iPhone and can't see a way to do so.
Thanks,
W
if you turned on find my phone when you activaied the phone you can go to www.icloud.com/find your username is your Apple ID. If not ... nothing you can do. you do not need icloud to do this.

Sync iphone after install of Snow Leopard
Hi, I am having a problem getting the apps that are currently on my iphone onto my macbook.
The other day I did I clean install of snow leopard by formatting the hard drive then copied across my essential data my viewing my time machine backup and going into the newest date.
I had everything backed up apart from my apps, which I though would be associated with my account seen as I purchased the majority of them. I have just tried to buy the same app using my same account to find that I have been charge twice now.
The only thing that I can think of is that my card expired so I have had to add a new card number.I had the same problem on a clean install. Apps appear on iPhone but not in iTunes.
Copy the actual (*.ipa) iPhone apps from your backup or time machine.
from old location: Home folder / music / iTunes / mobile applications
to new Snow Leopard Location: Home folder / music / iTunes / mobile applications
Select sync applications in iTunes Applications tab. -
Sync iPhone contacts without iCloud by using Bittorrent Sync?
iCloud (or iTunes) has messed up my contacts again, duplicating and altering some. Bittorrent Sync is highly recommended for syncing folders between multiple devices without going through any cloud server. It would be perfect for syncing contacts but it's not possible to find the contacts data on an iPhone. Is there a way?
Ask Bittorrent

How to sync Outlook 2010 calendar (on my local windows 7 64 bit computer) with my iPhone 5c without iCloud?
You would sync Outlook via iTunes on the computer. Connect the iPhone to the computer, make sure you have the latest version of iTunes running, select the iPhone in iTunes and it will display the Summary page. Select the Info tab, and there you would select what you want to sync calendar and contacts to. Make sure since this is the first time you have done a sync that whichever of the devices is new to the sync process has at least one unique contact/calendar event to get iTunes to prompt you for a merge or replacement. You can see this support document for help in setting up initial syncing. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1296

Sync iCal on laptop with Snow Leopard rather than Lion
My netwok has both Lion and Snow Leopard computers. I used to sync iCal using MobileMe but have moved the Lion machines to iCloud. I would like to continue syncing my iCal to the Snow Leopard machine. Is this possible and if so how do I do it?
You need to copy the Domain.sites2 file (iWeb 3) that's in your Users/Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder on the SL Mac to the same folder on your iMac.
In Lion and Mountain Lion the Home/Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder. Then you'll be able to easily find that folder and move the domain file into it. WARNING: Be sure that the domain file has a different name than the one currently there so you don't overwrite it.
To open your domain file in Lion or Mountain Lion or to switch between multiple domain files Cyclosaurus has provided us with the following script that you can make into an Applescript application with Script Editor. Open Script Editor, copy and paste the script below into Script Editor's window and save as an application.
do shell script "/usr/bin/defaults write com.apple.iWeb iWebDefaultsDocumentPath -boolean no"delay 1
tell application "iWeb" to activate
You can download an already compiled version with this link: iWeb Switch Domain.
Just launch the application, find and select the domain file in your Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder that you want to open and it will open with iWeb. It modifies the iWeb preference file each time it's launched so one can switch between domain files.
WARNING: iWeb Switch Domain will overwrite an existing Domain.sites2 file if you select to create a new domain in the same folder. So rename your domain files once they've been created to something other than the default name.

can I upgrade straight to lion without purchasing snow leopard if I am running on OS 10.5.8?
Well, yes, if your Mac meets the requirements, you can afford to erase the drive completely, & don't mind paying $10 more for Lion on a Flash stick than Snow Leopard/10.6 on DVD & Lion/10.7 download from the App Store is.
Snow Leopard/10.6.x Requirements...
General requirements
* Mac computer with an Intel processor
* 1GB of memory (I say 2GB at least)
* 5GB of available disk space (I say 30GB at least)
* DVD drive for installation
* Some features require a compatible Internet service provider; fees may apply.
* Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and terms apply.
Which apps work with Mac OS X 10.6?...
http://snowleopard.wikidot.com/
It looks like they do still have it:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A?fnode=MTY1NDAzOA
If it's a core Duo & not a Core2Duo, then it'll only run in 32 bit mode.
Snow Leopard/10.6.x Requirements...
Lion/101.7 System requirements
• x86-64 processor (Macs with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Intel Core i3, Intel Core i5, Intel Core i7, or Xeon processor.)
• At least 2GB of memory, (I say 4GB)
• Latest version of Mac OS X Snow Leopard (10.6.8), with the Mac App Store installed
• At least 4GB of disk space for downloading, (I say 40GB at least)
Like Snow Leopard, Lion does not support PowerPC-based Macs (e.g., Power Macs, PowerBooks, iBooks, iMacs (G3-G5), eMacs).
Lion also does not support 32-bit Intel Core Duo or Core Solo based Macs. Rosetta is no longer available in Lion, which means Lion no longer supports PowerPC applications.
Or, if you can afford to erase everything & spend $10 more than the 10.6 Disc & 10.7 from the App Store...
Or if you can erase your disk...

Problems building w/ Snow Leopard and iPhone SDK 3.0 Snow Leopard
Suddenly having problems building and codesigning after upgrading to Snow Leopard and iPhone SDK 3.0 Snow Leopard.
Profile set to Distribution, Device 2.2.1 Distribution, as has worked in the past.
The build fails with this error:
Command <com.apple.tools.product-pkg-utility> failed with exit code -1
The below section is highlighted in Build Results.

Any ideas? This is really strange.
The same error occurs when trying to build for Device - 3.0, and any other version it seems.
This is especially frustrating as I'm simply trying to update an app that I released before I upgraded.
I will love whoever helps me forever and ever.
saikyoFound the new SDK on the CD. Now I am running XCode 3.2.
I'm talking to myself now for the benefit of future readers.
On the Dev Center I see the note:
"Important: You will need to re-install the iPhone SDK for Snow Leopard if you plan on developing iPhone applications after upgrading your Mac to Snow Leopard and installing Xcode 3.2."
So I'm going to download and install the iPhone SDK 3.0 (Snow Leopard) from the SDK downloads area on the Dev Center page. This seems weird to me as it's 3.0... but I'm running 3.2 now... I guess this will just update my 3.2?
I also notice that when I run XCode 3.2 I don't have Simulator as an option anymore in my profiles.
Going to go ahead with the update now and see how it goes. -
IPhone sync issue with iTunes after Snow Leopard upgrade
I upgraded to Snow Leopard and since then iTunes does not see my iPhone 3GS and I am unable to sync. I've read the troubleshooting guide to no avail. What am I missing?
If you are running v10.6.3 as your profile suggests, update to v10.6.8.
Click your Apple menu / Software Update.
Restart your Mac after the updates are installed.
See if iTunes will recognize your iPhone.
If your software is up to date then try here > iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X -

I have a 2009 Macbook Pro with Apple Mac OS X 10.5, Leopard on it and I'm starting to get annoyed with the fact that some stuff is not compatible with this OSX anymore. I would like to be able to upgrade to Mountain Lion or Lion but without having to fork out £15 on Snow Leopard when it won't get used, or should I upgrade to Snow Leopard and not bother about upgrading to Lion or Mountain Lion.
Thanks in advance
MattYou have to get Snow Leopard first.
Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
The OS 10.6 Snow Leopard install DVD is available for $19.99 from the Apple Store:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
and in the UK:
http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
but nobody knows for how long it will be available.
When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard.
To use iCloud you have to upgrade at least to Lion, but some functions are only available in Mountain Lion:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4759
You can also purchase the code to use to download Lion (Lion requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM, running the latest version of Snow Leopard), or you can purchase Mountain Lion from the App Store - if you can run that:

IPhone 5 used with Snow Leopard 10.6.8?
My MacBook Pro 17" is an early model (2/07) and I have read that it is not capable of upgrading to Mountain Lion. So it looks like using iCloud is unavailable for me. What else on the iPhone 5 won't work with Snow Leopard?
CS 1 Works totally fine here on 10.6.8 and Rosetta is a killer feature, very fast and unobtrusive, I generally don't notice speed differences between CS1 (PPC) and CS5.5 (Intel) on the same machine for normal size files. So I have no reason to believe this won't be the case with CS2 as well. With gigantic files 5.5 certainly has the edge as it can use way more memory.
Don't forget to ENABLE rosetta on 10.6. It is no longer ON by default. -
MobileMe, iCloud, Snow Leopard and the Mail app
I have a MacBook Pro with an Intel Core Duo processor and Snow Leopard. I cannot install Lion on the laptop. I have for now, and for the next coming year, no budget for a new Mac. A lot of money has been put, and will be, into the children and their studies. I cannot afford it now to buy a new Mac to have Lion and iCloud all over.
Should I make the transition of my MobileMe account to iCloud, to use it on my iPhone 3GS an iPad [1], then that will have the consequence that I will not be able any more to use the Mail app, and all its functionality, as far as it goes about the iCloud mail. It will not be synchronised. Will it still be available through the Mail app in some way? Or do I have to use the web interface on my Mac, for mail on icloud.com? Imagine that!
My God, first this Lion disappointment. Now this iCloud frustration. What I cannot understand, is why this is not possible for Snow Leopard? Working with the cloud, does that have so much restrictions? Or is it iCloud that makes this impossible? Or is it just plain gore catching money?
For the first time as a long time Apple user I'm looking around now for other solutions. It was goodbye, Steve. We will miss you. But it will become: goodbye, Apple, we will not miss you.Add me to the very unhappy list
We have a mix of G5 macs, G4 Poerwerbooks, first generation Macbooks and Macbook Pros. The only machines that can be upgraded to Lion would be the Macbook Pros but due to the loss of Rosetta we also can't upgrade those.
Everything works great now with MobileMe but none of them would work if we upgraded to iClould.
This is totally unacceptable. The older machines work just fine doing administration work and would cost tens of thousands of dollars to replace all of them with new machines and even then with the loss of Rosetta wouldn't be unable to run needed software that has never been written for Intel. -
Can you help me figure this out. At the apple store they said install snow leopard then buy some app to get your mail to work on your macbook. the one guy said it'll prompt me to it, but i can't figure it out
I'm sorry. I must not have been too clear. I got Lion installed and I can't get into my mail without logging into iCloud. I used to be able to just click on the mail/stamp icon on my dock. And I kind of remember the guy at apple saying I had to buy something else in the app store after I successfully installed lion (which I just accomplished) Thanks for your help!
