Syncing my Calendar on MacBook and iPhone

My Calendar on my MacBook and iPhone 4s is not syncing?

are they set up to synch on each device ??
Calendars has to be checked in the iCloud parameters of each device.
Even when this is done, I have sometimes to synch manually on my iPhone (I don't know why, but only on my iPhone, neither on my iPad, nor on my MAcbook)

  • Syncing outgoing email on MacBook and iphone. Read loads of posts but still can't resolve...

    Ploughed my way through loads of previous posts but have yet to find a solution.
    It's that age old problem: I want to sync email on MacBook and iPhone so that changes on either device are reflected on the other.
    Everything other than mail is synced succesfully via iTunes so no problem there. My email server is oneandone and accounts on both devices are IMAP. Incoming mail shows on both accounts but outgoing mail is only shown on the device the action was performed on.
    Any suggestions on how to resolve? Am running 10.6 with a MacBook Pro and iPhone 4S.
    Thanks
    Nick

    I have never found a solution (and I have looked). As I recall, if you uncheck "store sent mail on server" all the mail looks like it is sent from me.
    I send a little mail from my iPad, but most of it is from my MacBook Pro.
    I realize this has not resolved the issue, but I thought it would, at least, indicate that you are not alone.

  • ICal syncs Google calendar with iPad and iPhone but not MacBook Air

    Hi there,
    Sorry to post another thread about syncing issues, but the solutions posted in the ones I looked at didn't quite solve my problem, so I'm wondering if I'm having an issue that's specific to the way I've set things up with my devices?
    I created a Google account for the sole purpose of having a Google calendar that I could share with my Dad. We both access this Google calendar through iCal.
    My Dad generally checks or posts updates using iCal on his iPad and iPhone. Meanwhile, I'm using iCal on my MacBook Air, which FWIW is also running Snow Leopard. (I don't have an iPad or iPhone - this is my only means of accessing the calendar.)
    Any change he makes on the calendar will show up on both of his devices, but not mine. Any change I make will not show up on his devices.
    I logged into the Google account in a web browser (Chrome, FWIW) and checked the calendar through the same browser - all of his changes aren't showing up on it, but mine are.
    I had my Dad reload the same Google calendar in his devices (i.e. delete the account and add it back again) and confirmed he's using the right Google address and password. This doesn't do anything to solve the problem.
    What else am I missing? It's a little frustrating trying to fix this because my Dad's in another state so I don't see him that often, and even though I taught him how to use an iPad and an iPhone, he's still not the most computer literate person, so talking him through this is a little tricky.

    On the MBPro and the iMac open System Preferences > iCloud
    Switch Calendars off then back on.
    Give iCloud a few minutes to re sync the data.

  • Having fun sync'ing calendar between iPAD and iPhone; both time zones are set to Lond, UK, but events in calendars seem to move to Buenos Aires times?  It is fun, I think, but how do I sync them both to London times? help!

  • Sync of calendars between mac and iphone

    Previously, I could sync my phone with itunes and my calendars would update across both devices.   couple of months ago I installed mavericks and noticed that there no longer was the option to sync calendars with a wired connection between devices so I rolled back to 10.8.5 and left mavericks well alone
    Still on 10.8.5 and with my iphone 4s on 7.1, I cannot send calendar entries from my phone to my mac.
    I am not a cloud user and for many reasons I can't/dont want to be a cloud user.  Is there any way to recover the two way sync capabilities between devices or is this yet another force of hand from the once mighty apple to push me in a way they want me to go ?
    Any advice greatly received

    Do you have sync calendars selected in the Device Summary tab in iTunes?

  • Can I sync my macbook, and iphone with Kindle fire?

    Is it possible to sync my new Kindle Fire with my Macbook and Iphone contacts and calendar and music

    No. Hardware and software incompatibility.

    I have iCloud on my iMac, macbook and iPhone.  However, when I update my contacts on one, it does not update on any of the other devices.  The calendar seems to be working.  Any suggestions?

    On the iMac and MacBook open System Preferences > iCloud
    Deselect the box next to Contacts, then reselect it then restart the Macs.
    On the iPhone tap Settings > iCloud
    Switch Contacts off then back on then restart the iPhone.
    Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button down until the red slider appears. Slide your finger across the slider to turn off iPhone. To turn iPhone back on, press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.

  • I need to sync my mac calendar with ipad and iphone and visa versa.

    I need to sync my mac calendar with ipad and iphone and visa versa. I have read up on it and Mobileme seemed the way to go, but isn't for sale anymore.  Will installing lion allow me to integrate calendars???

    You should post in the SL forum for more help.
    Since you're using SL, you should be able to sync using iSync application or iTunes. I'm not familiar with it, but I know it can be done.
    And yes, if you install Lion and use iCloud, you will be able to sync iCal between all devices. Once set up, whatever change made on one automatically updates the other. Same for AddressBook.

    MacBook Air, OS X Mountain Lion (10.9.1)

    Obviously, syncing an iOS device with iTunes over USB is still supported in Mavericks. Calendar and contact syncing with iTunes is no longer supported. That has nothing to do with your problem.
    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try the action that you're having trouble with again. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).

  • Why does iCal look different on iPad than on Macbook and iPhone?

    Is there a way to get my calendar in my macbook and iPhone to have the same visual interface as the calendar on my iPad? Is there certain software I need to download? I just don't like the format of the iCal on my my computer and iPhone, and finally they have a good format but only for one of my products.

    I have no answers for you on this one, but I agree. I enjoy the layout on my ipad, but it seems that iCal is falling behind in its formatting. With a new iLife out there, and OSX Lion out in the open, you'd think they could make the interface a whole lot better on MacBook if they are offering it on iPad.

  • Synching calendars between itunes and iphone 5 no longer works.

    Syncing calendars between itunes and iphone 5 no longer works.  I do not get any errors, however calendar items are not updated. 
    I am syncing via USB on a Windows 8 computer.  It worked a couple of weeks ago.  Since then itunes has had its weekly update, my IOS may have been updated, and I've run a malware removal program on my computer. I curently have iTunes 11.1.3.8  and iOS 7.0.4.  I read the posts and verified ICloud was turned off. 
    I really need to be able to sync my computer and iphone again.  Any suggestions?

    So you'll either need to attempt further repair yourself or take the iPhone to some unauthorized repair shop, pay them, and hope they fix it correctly.
    The iPhone 5 has no Touch ID, and an iPhone 5S should still be under warranty, so I'm puzzled as to what you really have and were attempting. If you do have a 5S, why you didn't get it serviced under warranty?
    Regards.

  • Is there a way to sync outlook calendars with Imac, Ipad, Iphone calendars.  I am not running exchange server.

    Is there a way to sync outlook calendars with Imac, Ipad, Iphone calendars?  I am not running exchange server.

    hello,
    BlackBerry devices do not support ActiveSync.
    you have several ways, from best to less good :
    1)
    if your company has set up Outlook Web Access, you can use the BIS connection of your device to connect to the Exchange server (email + Address book) through the url of the Outlook Web Access. The OWA needs to be accessible from outside the company.
    2)
    if your company has setup an external link to the exchange server (can be accessible from outside the company), you can configure your BIS directly to the Exchange server (email only if I recall correctly)
    3)
    if your company allows it, on your PC you can setup your email account to automatically forward all incoming emails to a third party email (like GMail or Hotmail), and then configure BIS to connect to that email provider. You will get push email. You can then setup a reply-to: field.
    4)
    use a Windows Mobile phone that has the ActiveSync feature.

  • Backing up data on old MACBOOK and iPhone 3

    Hi all,
    What is the best way to help my friend back up her data?
    I have a friend with an older white MacBook running I believe 10.5 and an older iPhone three or three GS
    Currently the MacBook has only 10 gigs free
    And her iPhone 3g has over 4000 pictures
    As far as I know nothing has ever been backed up before! Yikes!
    GOAL : back up all her MacBook and iPhone data
    Question: what is the best course of action?
    MY THINKING…
    1 - get an external drive and back up the computer first using carbon copy cloner or superduper
    2 - empty some space so that the MacBook has many more gigabytes to work with
    3 - back up (SYNC) the iPhone to the MacBook - now that there are more gigabytes free
    4 - now back up the MacBook second time with all the Data from the iPhone included
    Q: Is that the best way to go?
    ALSO…
    As a short-term solution I was thinking if I could attach her old iPhone three to my MacBook Pro which is already synced to my iPhone five
    Q: - if I connect her iPhone three using USB– Can I just use image capture out to grab all her photos for safety? With that in any way screw up her syncing connections to her MacBook later? What about My iPhone 5 after….. ex… what devices are connected it asks if you want to trust this computer? Can someone explain exactly what that means– And how it affects your main computer syncing later?

    any help would be appreciated on this

  • I need help syncing my contacts between Outlook and iPhone using iTunes. I followed the steps given and ended up with just email addresses showing in my contacts even though I have phone numbers and snail mail in my Outlook Contacts. Using  Windows 7

    I need help syncing my contacts between Outlook and iPhone using iTunes. I used the knowldge document and set it up to transfer my Outlook contacts to the iphone using itunes.
    In contacts on the iphone I only see the email addresses.
    Yet in Outlook I have email, snail mail and phone numbers.
    I followed the knowledge document from iphone.
    I did it once, didn't work so deleted all the contacts from the phone and tried again. Same result. I have a PC using Windows 7 64 bit.

    You can't access an Exchange account via ActiveSync with the Address Book and iCal on your Mac.
    You can access a MM account with Outlook on your PC at work and keep your MM email account server stored mailboxes synced between your PC at work, your iPhone, and the MM "cloud". Not sure about syncing MM contact info and calendar events with Outlook at the same time with an Exchange account.
    This will not provide for syncing your Exchange account contact info and calendar events with the Addresss Book and iCal on your Mac because the accounts are separate.
    You can access an Exchange account and a MM account at the same time with the iPhone's mail client, and sync contact info and calendar events over the air with both accounts at the same time. You can view combined contact info or separately for each account, and the same for calendar events.

  • Why is photostream not working together with my macbook and iphone?

    Photostream is not working togther with my macbook and iphone. How can I sync it?

    Has it ever worked?
    If you recently turned on photo stream on the mac and iphone, then (on the iphone) only new photos are included in photo stream, old ones are not.
    But syncing to your mac (if the photos originate from the iphone) is critical.  That's how you store photos (they can easily disappear on the iphone due to many "issues" that can occur, and relying on an icloud backup is not safe - to many users have lost some/all their photos when doing a restore.
    So be sure to begin by doing a sync to the mac using itunes/iphoto with a USB cable.
