Syncing issue with iCloud - New to iPhone 4s and iCloud

I have just switched to the iPhone 4S from a HTC Desire. So please be gentle.
I have set up several email accounts (GMAIL, HOTMAIL, YAHOO, AIM) on this device, using their calendars, contacts and content. That works fine. My issue is with the iCloud service.
I have switched on iCloud, and selected it to backup my contacts, mail (created a .me account) and applications.
When I log in to the iCloud website, it only has one contact in there (my own contact details) and no calendars. Can someone point out what I am doing wrong here?

I don't think you are doing anything wrong...

I have been having syncing issues with icloud notes, contacts, and now icloud email. Does anyone have suggestions?

Just recently, I have been unable to receive icloud email on my iphone and new ipad3. Although, I am a loyal apple consumer, I feel a bit let down. I am a PhD student and used my ipad/icloud email for downloading and reading PDF journal articles. My goal is to eventally buy a MacBook Pro and eliminate some of the syncing issues with icloud by storing my documents on the hard drive. I hope this will give me some relief from all the trouble I have had with icloud. Please share your suggestions.

Right now, there is an iCloud blackout. Most people are having issues syncing Notes, Calenders, and Contacts between devices, emails aren't being sent, and Find My iPhone isn't working.

Syncing issues with the new iTunes..

Hi,
I just downloaded the new iTunes (11.0.1.12) and am facing some sunc issues.
In my previous itunes, when i would download an app to my iPod over wifi and then connect it to my PC, iTunes would automatically sync and maintain a copy of the app in my PC. My iPod and the PC would be in sync.
But now after I've downloaded this latest iTunes, I downloaded an app to my iPod and when I tried to sync with the PC, the app no longer got copied to my PC. I've tried syncing many times. Its there on my iPod but never gets copied to the PC during sync. Why is is this happening?
Help!

There aren't any issues with the new iTunes. You need the most recent iTunes to sync your iPod

Syncing Issues with iCloud and iPhone

My iPhone 4 had to be replaced. Yesterday I spent 2 hours on the phone with Apple Care while they tried to resolve the issue of why my new phone wasn't syncing with my Address Book and Calendars. The cloud FINALLY gave up the data. Now I find that not all of my ringtones have synced. Does anyone know how to resolve this particular syncing issue? The ringtones are in my iTunes library under "ringtones," they were on my other iPhone 4 and worked just fine, and I've checked the boxes in front of each one on the "Sync Ringtones" window when my new iPhone 4 is plugged in. Four out of ten have synced. The rest refuse to make the trip. Any clue as to what to do? At this point, I'm ready for the iCloud to disappear and give the old system back.

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.

Syncing issues with iCloud

My iPhone 4 syncs to iCloud perfectly however I cannot get my calendar to also sync to the ical on my desktop, the calendar only goes to the ical on iCloud. I would like my events to also appear on my macbook?

You need to be running OS X Lion (10.7.2 or later), and then enable calendar syncing with iCloud as described here: http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/mac.html.

IOS Mail syncing issues with iCloud - emails from 1970!!!!!

Hi
I woke up this morning to find some very weird behaviour on my iOS devices (iPhone 5 32GB, iPad 2 32GB).
Both mail apps are synced to my mail accout with icloud yet both only seem willing to sync with all email from today and yesterday, and then only show emails from late November 2012. My iPad also seems to believe that I was sent some emails from 01/01/1970!!!!
As far as I am aware all was fine yesterday, and all seems to be fine with mail on my Mac.
Any advice much appreciated,
I deleted the account from my phone and then re-added it but the problem was still there.
Many thanks
Andy

I have previously successfully fixed similar problem by resetting all settings. Settings - general - reset - reset all settings. Do not click the line that says erase content. You will lose your screen wallpaper, your wifi password and other minor stuff that is not worth mentioning, but nothing important.

Premiere Pro audio sync issues with 48khz audio on video file and 44.1khz audio on external audio

So, I recorded video and audio on my Canon 5D Mark II at 1080p, 23.976 fps, and 48khz, 16-bit Stereo audio. And I used a Zoom H4 to record an mp3 audio file at 44.1khz Compressed. When trying to sync the audio in Premiere Pro CC, the audio slowly loses sync over time. I already tried to convert the 44.1khz mp3 file to 48khz in Adobe Audition. But that didn't fix the problem. Any ideas?

There's always time-stretch changes to the audio file with "keep pitch unchanged" checked, I suppose. Mind you, I've heard of people doing it but haven't done it myself. There's other possible options I'm sure. There's been quite a few threads here on time-sync issues over time.

Syncing issues with a new computer, while old computer is dead

Ok, So when I first purchased the iPod Nano 3rd generation, I still lived at my parents and set everything up through their computer. I bought music, and imported music to it from CD's on this computer and everything synced correctly and nicely.
Now, I have sinced moved out and have a new computer which I have authorized, but cannot import any of the music I imported from my CD's a few years back. On top of it, I have purchased music from my new computer, but cannot sync it directly to my iPod to actually listen too for whatever reason. The final issue is that my parent's computer is completely dead, so I cannot even go on that one to deauthorize.
Is there any way that I can get the music I have purchased recently to transfer over to my iPod? And, is there a way I can get the music I copied from old CD's into my new library on the new computer?

Try this:
Error: Activation Server Unavailable | CS2, Acrobat 7, Audition 3
Just be aware that CS2 is very old software and will NOT work on current versions of either Macintosh or Windows computers. For example, it's incompatible with Mavericks on a Mac and Windows 8.

Has anyone had issues with the new Mac Pro computers and the Adobe Application Manager?

We just purchased a new Mac Pro and transferred everything from the old computer to the new one. Now we are getting Adobe Application Manager errors and it wants us to download Application Manager. That leads us to the Adobe Installer that encounters the following issues
Installer failed to initialize. Please download Adobe Support Advisor to detect the problem. But that doesn't work either.
Anyone run into this?

Yep, half of my tracks are coming up displaying an error -69 ( http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302684 ) and every time I remove a track from the shuffle or update the shuffle, Itunes opens a window displaying the contents of J:\ (obviously the ipod) and hidden folder \iPod_Control.... I'm really irked with this. Been mucking around with the stupid thing for hours now.
Nothing was wrong with it until it suddenly decided to stop working, it wouldn't play tracks and Itunes wouldn't recognise it, hadn't missed a beat up till now. Sifted through the Support site for an answer and getting told I needed to update Itunes and update the Ipod software, ***?? It was working fine before. Me thinks Apple have inserted software in ipod to force users to update to newer version of Itunes. Anyway, ever since updating to the latest Itunes, the Ipod is back in action, but it is trying to tell me that half of my mp3s are corrupt (see error -69), rofl, um no, it's your stupid software Apple, I'm off to by myself a decent MP3 player without the bloat software.

Sync issues with iPhone 6 Plus and iTunes

I'm having issues with syncing my iPhone and iTunes.
I am running: Mavericks 10.9.3 | iTunes 11.4 | iOS 8.0.2
Every time I try to sync my iPhone 6 Plus with iTunes, the sync process gets stuck on step 5 of 5 (waiting for changes to be applied). The longest this has occurred for is 2hrs. After this time I have stopped the sync and ejected my iPhone.
I had another issue with my phone when playing music. When going to play music, I was given the error message saying that the song could not be found. I connected my iPhone to iTunes and went to the tab in summery page, 'on this iPhone'. I found the song and could see that next to the song was a small what looked like dotted grey circle. After Googling this, I found a video saying that if i was to remove all my music and then add it again, this should fix the problem with this song. I did this and this was when the issue occurred again.
I unticked the option to remove all music but the sync did not finish. So I cancelled the sync, ejected my iPhone and tried again. This time, the summery page of my iPhone said there was no music on my iPhone and the 'on this iPhone' tab, this all so said there was no music however, my music was still on my iPhone including the song that would not play. All played ok.
I have read lots in the Apple forums about lost of difference reason this may be happening. Things like bugs in iOS 8, app updates being transferred during the sync process, the latest iTunes version has bugs and even a dodgy USB cable could cause it. My iPod running iOS 5 syncs all ok but I get this problem as well on my iPad Air.
I all so had this issue with my old iPhone 4S. The problem occurred when running iOS 7 and 8 on the 4S. When I had it on the 4S, I did a restore of the 4S 4 times and thought I had found the issue down too a dodgy app. However, now that it has happened on my new iPhone and still not using that app, could this be an issue with my Mac/iTunes?
I am in contact with Apple Care, but this is such a long process.
So if anybody could please offer any advice on this or steps to try to maybe solve the issue, it would be really helpful. Or if anybody is experiencing the same problem, it would be good to know its not just my devices and Mac producing this sync problem.
I will update my post with any information provided by Apple Care as and when I get it.
Thanks for reading and thanks for your time.
Mark.

Hi,
Just wanted to updated my original post and give some more information on this issue that I'm having with my iOS devices running iOS 8.0.2 and iTunes 11.4.
Firstly I just want to updated my details about what version of Mavericks I'm running. I'm running 10.9.5 - I put the wrong version down in my original post.
So over the last week, I have had a few phone calls with Apple Care an am dealing with a senior technical advisor about this issue.
I have been given some instructions that I am currently working through to see if it solves the sync issue with iTunes and my iOS devices.
The Apple Care advisor has pointed out that a iTunes version issue with music that I have ripped to iTunes and the current iTunes version could be what is causing the problem. For example, every song that I have purchased from iTunes since having an account, I was told are all exactly the same the same when it comes down the to data/information about that track/album that iTunes stores with the music but when it comes to music that I have added to iTunes myself from a CD, this was added and encoded with the version of iTunes that was running at the time of adding the music. So going through all the music that I added to iTunes over the last 10 years, you can imaging that there was lots of mixed version of iTunes linked to lots of different music.
At the moment, I'm having to go through all my music and find any that I have added and create a new ACC version of that music and delete the old version. However, due to the amount of music that I have, this is going to take a long time. When I was on the phone to the Apple Care advisor, we did several albums as a test and they all synced over to my iPhone. This may just have been luck though at that time.
Now, I'm not saying that this will solve the problem that I have with the sync issue but I am going to try it and see how I get on. The only down side to this fix as far as I can see at the moment, is that when it's all done, I think I will have to fully restore all my iOS devices to get music on to them.
I will of course updated this topic when I have got through all my music and tried to sync my iOS devices.
Thank you all for your comments.

IPhone 4S - Syncing issues with a Mac

I've tried almost everything! I have the latest versions of Itunes, iOS7, and running OS x 10.9. I cant sync music between my iPhone 4S and my Mac or my wife's iPhone4 and the Mac. Very frustrating, I don't manually manage music I sync my playlists and videos. I've tried to restore and restart both phones but nothing! When I purchase music now, I have to wait until it downloads and then create or modify a playlist on the phone itself, I can't even get purchases to transfer, if i make them on the Mac. It began after I performed the latest iOS7 update. Help please!!!

Thanks @Awol1404 I do have a lot of songs with just a circle of dots on the device through Itunes, some of these songs come up on the device itself as greyed out with a (stop download icon (circle with square in the middle)) i've tried to remove all the songs my unchecking the sync music box and checking the manually mangage box. I press sync or apply and itunes does its thing. On Itunes the device then comes up as having 2 playlists (one voice memos and 1 random playlist from what i had) and thats it. I can reboot the computer and when i plug it back in it still says that that is what is on the phone. on the phone itself, there has been no changes except maybe the odd song greyed out. Very confusing, frustrating and well... frustrating!!!!
I have no issues with iCloud syncing, contacts and messages, emails, calendars are all working how they should.

HT1420 Even when I authorised my pc on my iphone, when i sync the iphone with a new purchase, it prompts and error that unable to sync due to pc not authorised.

Hello, Jagatheswary.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
The most common cause for this issue would be media or Apps present in your library that is purchased with another Apple ID. The article below will walk you through the process of verifying if that is the case or correcting the issue if not.

It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for just such an occasion.
Use your backup copy of your computer to put everything on the new one.
It sounds like you have failed to do this, which is not good at all.
You will have to transfer your itunes purchases from your iphone. Authorize your computer for your itunes account
About iTunes Store authorization and deauthorization
Open itunes, plug in iphone, do NOT sync, click File>Transfer Purchases
When you do sync you will lose your pics ( photo library - synced from your old computer), your itunes content ( music, apps, videos,etc) , your contacts and your calendars. So do NOT sync yet. This is why a backup copy is so important.
Enter one unique contact and calendar entry on your computer.
When you first sync, you should get the option to merger the data. Choose it.
If you want your pics, then you will need to e-mail them to yourself before you sync. They will not be of the original quality as they are reduced when synced to iphone.
When all is as goos as it can be, then backup your computer, and always maintain the backup.
