Syncing with iPhone & iPad

Hi,
i am in the process of gettin rid of my macbook, once I do this i am purchasing the new iPad - the worry I have is - what happens to my music, tones, movies and books etc in itunes, as i know there isnt an itunes option on the ipad?
Will these be added through my apple ID?
what is the eqivalent on the ipad for those that have one?
I will be syncing the ipad with my iphone so will everything on my iphone be transferred onto the ipad too?

Try this (from <http://chimac.net/2010/05/16/is-your-ical-not-syncing-to-iphone-or-colors-are- funky/>)
1. As a first step, I suggest resetting the sync history on your Mac. This is done via iSync preferences with the iSync application located in your Applications folder.
2. After selecting reset sync history with iSync preferences, restart your Mac and try again. Disconnect your iPhone and quit iTunes.
3. At the iCal menu bar, go to File and select Back up iCal.
4. Save the backup on your Desktop.
5. Delete all calendars from iCal so that is it empty. (You must have at least one calendar remaining…just create a new blank calendar)
6. At the iCal menu bar, go to File and select Restore iCal – selecting the backup file placed on your Desktop.
7. Launch iTunes and connect your iPhone.
8. Check if this resolves the problem.

You need OSX 10.7.2 or higher in order to access icloud. The mobile me account is now defunct (it closed down more than a year ago).

IWork files do not sync with iPhone/iPad using iTunes

When trying to sync Pages, Numbers or Keynote documents by adding the files to the respective app category in iTunes >Apps >Apps >Documents and pressing Add..., I see the word "sync" on iPhone/iPad just for about a second and then the homescreen on iPhone/iPad reappears. But the files are not there (in Pages, Numbers or Keynote). Other apps I use work fine with this transfer method. What is the problem here?

Thanks for the suggestion, but I tried that to no avail.
I tried to toggle on and off every setting you can imagine and restarting. Deleting the apps and reinstalling.
Nothing.

Media will not sync with iPhone/iPad

External HDD connected via AirPort Extreem (USB), all media..... MP3's, Movies, TV Shows and that you typically sync is stored on HDD via iTunes.
So when I sync my iPhone/iPad nothing (media) that is located on the external HDD sync's.
I am going crazy..... Please help if you can....

Where is your iTunes Library located -on your Mac, or on the external drive?

Outlook 2007 sync with iPhone & iPad: All events on device one day behind !

Dear all,
I stumbled over this recently when I started with my brand new iPad. Date/Time/Region/Timezone settings on desktop computer (win7) and iPhone and iPad are identical. Sync with Google calendar and 3rd party products on iPhone / iPad / Outlook works perfect.
Can maybe anyone shed some light on this ? iPhone calendar used to sync fine, not sure when the problem started (maybe with OS 3.1.2 ?)
TIA
Cyana

It would be nice if the iPhone let you create smart albums on the fly, but it's pretty much a dumb client for iPhoto. So, you'll have to do more work in iPhoto setting up what you want to see on the iPhone.
My method--I have smart albums (eg, Rated pix from Hawaii, Rated pix from Christmas 2009) and sync those. I also sync all Rated Pix as a big album, but that's not that usable. So mine's not a very efficient method---I wind up creating lots of albums and sorting out which ones I want synced.
A workable approach for you might be to create multiple smart albums, perhaps based on date--eg, "checked photos from Jan-June 2010". Create one of those every six months and you've got some basic, easy to maintain organization.
I would actually like to see both iPhoto and iTunes have a feature--"sync my rules to the iPhone and reapply them to the big bucket of music/photos files that I've moved to the iPhone". But I doubt Apple would ever do it. But you can Send Feedback from the Help menu in iPhoto, if you like.

Contacts sync with iPhone, iPad & MacBook Pro but not calendar won't

OK, so on my iPhone and iPad I have software V 6.1.3, my MacBook Pro 10.8.3. I can get contacts to sync with all 3 but the calendar nothing wants to sync.

OK, I made a change to calendar on MacBook Pro and it syncd with iPad & the iPhone. I deleted it on the iPad and it syncd with the MacBook but not the phone. So apparently the problem is between the iPhone & the iPad.

Mac not syncing with iPhone/iPad

Can someone help me? My Mac is acting up. Over the past 3 days, I have not been able to get my Mac to sync with my iphone or ipad like I have in the past. When I open up my calendar on Mac, it says it cant be refreshed and won't let me do a thing until I force it to quit. I input things on my reminders and notes on my Mac but it won't show up on my other 2 devices. But if I put stuff on my iphone/ipad it will show up on my Mac!? I've tried updating, shutting down, connecting with a USB. I don't know what else to do. I really don't want to have to delete all my stuff because its a lot! Help please!

Create low rez photo library to sync with iPhone / iPad

Is there a tool or utility to create a duplicate photo library that's resized smaller so I can sync them to my iPhone? I'd like to have all my photos on my devices but don't want to waste a a lot of space. Ideally this tool would be automatic so I wouldn't need to manage it manually. For instance if I transferred new photos from my camera it would then automatically create new smaller sized photos for my devices. Thanks for shy suggestions!!!

No.
The iPhone already creates smaller sized photos for the iPhone Photo App so its would be pretty pointless.
You could alwasy create your own minimal size iPhoto content however I have seen reports/threads in here of iPhoto upscaling tiny photo's/images to keep the size consistent with the rest of the library. Unfortunately, the upscaling often will create bigger space images that you started out with.

Organizing for smarter sync with iPhone/iPad

I have been using iPhoto for a while and found a way to organize my photos that works pretty well for me. I use events to group photos, I use the checkmark keyword to mark photos that I like, and I use other keywords to create smart albums for other purposes. I keep unchecked photos around in case I want to go back and mess with them. I just delete the really bad photos.
I used to only sync the last 6 months of checked photos to my iPhone, but I decided that I want all of my checked photos. Easy enough, just remove the date limit on the smart album for checked photos. However, this leaves me with no event-based organization on the phone. It is just years worth of photos in one pile.
So, the question is... is there a way to keep the event organization but only pull photos that are checked?
Or, is there a way to organize that I haven't thought of?

Macbook pro not syncing with iphone/ipad photos

My iphoto on my Macbook Air has stopped updating photos from my phone. The ipad syncs them but the MBA doesn't. It stopped at the end of March and hasn't added any since then.. any ideas? Everything else syncs, ie contacts, calendar etc.
I've tried disabling Photo Stream in the System/iCloud preference pane and iPhoto's Photo Stream preference pane, rebooting and reenabling both as previously advised. This didn't work.
Thanks

Reset iOS devices and your Mac.
Tap Settings > iCloud
Switch Photos off then back on.
And one more time on your Mac. System Preferences > iCloud
Deselect the box next to Photos then reselect it.
Give iCloud a minute or two to re sync the data.

How do i find which Apple ID is associated with music in my iTunes? When I sync with my iPad and iPhone it tells me I have music, apps etc from more than five IDs. I am asked for PW for a number of now extinct accounts.

Go to Settings/icloud. The Apple ID at the top of the screen is the only one you need to be concerned about. That one MUST be a working ID, and you must know the password for it, or you will be unable to use the phone if it ever crashes, you want to update it, or you want to sell it.

TS4002 iCloud for email is not on my Mac. How can I get email and iCal to sync with iphone and ipad.

iCloud for email is not on my Mac. It should be under Internet and wireless in System Preferences but it is not. Basically I am trying to get iCloud running successfully on my Mac for email and Calendar so that it will sync with my iPad and iPhone. I was an MobilMe customer and I've been having trouble with this conversion to iCloud. Thanks.

I too was a mobileme user and have just migrated to iCloud on mackbook pro w/OS 10.7.4. Transition caused my sent mailboxes to rearrange themselves so that I have no comprehensive 'sent' mailbox as I did previously and the view on both incoming and outgoing mailboxes keeps rearranging itself no matter how many times I set preferences. One result is that search function no longer works. Is anyone else having problems like this? All was fine for a week after transition but after having an evening when my password was repeatedly rejected I had to log in and out of iCloud (as directed by tech support) and w/in an hour or so the mailbox problem began.

TS3999 My iphone calendar does not sync with my iPad or my windows computer

I do not know why my iPad syncs with my Windows 7 computer and my iPhone, my computer syncs with my iPad, but my iPhone will not sync with eitther of the other two from the iPhone.
In other words, if I add an event on the iPhone calendar, it will not appear on the other two devices. Please help. Thank you

Are you trying to sync via iTunes? If so, note that since the release of Mavericks (OS X 10.9) syncing contacts and calendars to a Mac via iTunes is no longer supported. The currently supported method is via iCloud. http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/
