Syncing with yahoo - any updates on this?
Hi All,
I just received my new palm pixi (switched out my old blackberry) and thought I was moving up in the world. Now I see there are all kinds of issues syncing with yahoo contacts, calendar, etc. I only use Yahoo, and don't have a gmail account. My pixi keeps asking me to re-enter my password for contacts. My battery drained very quickly last night. I saw on the forum that there was lots of discussion about yahoo, but no resolution. What's the latest on this? Is there a fix?
I'm totally annoyed that I had to sign up for this forum in the first place - seems I should have stuck with my blackberry.
Have you tried completely removing and then re-adding the account? Very often a variety of glitches can be resolved that way.
Other thoughts are that it could be a bug related to having "special" characters within your password (such as ampersands or asterisks.)
As for signing up for the forum, why be annoyed? It's a good way to report problems and get questions answered by knowledgeable users as well as some of Palms paid tech support staff (whom I suspect contribute to these forums by and large voluntarily.)
Battery performance is something that Palm has been improving through over-the-air updates since the Pre was first released on Sprint almost a year ago. However not all battery issues are necessarily a problem with the phone. If for example last night you were in an area with poor signal the radio will constantly be attempting to find service which will drain the battery EXTREMELY quickly, but this is something which occurs with all phones smart, dumb, or otherwise.
I'm sorry you are having trouble and hope my suggestions above are able to help resolve your problem.

When I go to access my albums from any app on my phone or iPad, I cannot access the iCloud albums, only the albums synced with iTunes/iPhoto manually. This is frustrating because I cannot add to those albums from mobile device, I have to add to them during a Mac sync. I would like to be able to use my iCloud albums to organize my photos but if I cannot access them from apps it seems pointless. I will end up having to maintain both an iCloud library and a separate iPhoto library which is more work that seems necessary. I want everything easy to organize and access. It seems like in this age where most people are more likely to use their mobile devices than their Macs (and some do not even own Macs) that there should be a mobile solution. Hopefully I am simply without a clue and you folks can help me out with a fix or a source of info as a solution. I have not found answers yet.

Hi keriah,
When you go to Settings>Pages, do you have the "Use iCloud" option turned on?

Erased all content on 3G but now won't sync with iTunes. Error states, "This iPhone cannot be used because the Apple Mobile Device service is not started." I don't want phone service on this old 3G. Just want to use it as an iTouch. Any suggestions?
Type "Apple Mobile Device service " into the search bar at the top of this page by "Support"

Hi,
Could anyone help, point me in the right direction
I've set up my email on my ipad to sync with yahoo but i'm missing my most recent emails. Can't find any obvious settings faults.
Thanks.Hi Jeremy,
That is my understanding. Clicking "Delete Account" is similar to logging out of iCloud with that account.
But your situation is different from mine, as I had been using my @me.com account for "Find My iPhone" only. I ended up using my @me.com account for iCloud and another account for my Apple iTunes Store purchases.
That's correct--it will not delete your purchases. You can still back-up to your Mac with iTunes using the same account you used to purchase your Apple stuff. -Bob- -
Crash in YahooSync when trying syncing with Yahoo Address Book
My iPhone (fw 1.1.1) works fine. I tried to syn with my contacts on the Yahoo address book. When I click on "syn contacts with Yahoo! Address Book" in iTunes (latest vesion 7.4.3.1) it pops up the login dialog.
Then it crashes (login on the website works fine).
iTunes says: "unknown error (6)".
Any idea how to solve this?!While researching I found the following doc on Apple called
"iPhone: Exception error when syncing with Yahoo! Address Book" at http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305851
Currently I just have telephone numbers in my contacts, no e-mail addresses. So that can't be the problem. I also replaced special characters like ö, ä and so on.
When I retried now I got the same error -
In recent weeks i have been losing my contacts which are synced with yahoo. Is anyone elese having the same problem? How to fix it?
I have the same problem. Contacts in Yahoo disappear and then reapper back again several times per day. I have the impression that it depends if there is a connection to internet to synch with yahoo.
As I have some of my favorites number on the yahoo contact list, I found that I go to favorites and there are just the numbers and no name. After few minutes I go to the favorites list again and the name appear again.
It is very annoying problem.
Especially as when the contacts are lost and I get a phone call, it appears only the number and not the name of the caller.
Is there any one with a solution to this defect?

Events made on iPad calendar(through yahoo account) don't sync with yahoo calendar
Events made on iPad calendar (through my yahoo account) don't sync with yahoo calendar on the Web. I'm on latest iOS both on iPad and iPhone4. Any ideas?
ThanksRaymondo1,
Glad this helpped!
I am a PC user so cannot help with your Mac interfaces. I can sync (crudely) my Windows 7 Address book with iTunes. But, I cannot sync my Windows Mail or Calendar with iTunes (unless I have Microsoft Exchange).
Microsoft Exchange is not available to me. This is why I use the iPod to sync with to Yahoo for email and Calendar.
The best I can tell, iTunes does NOT support an interface with Yahoo.
Have a nice day.

Iphone does not sync with Yahoo Address Book
Hi My iPhone does not sync with Yahoo Address book. iTunes comes back with an error
"iTunes could not sync with Yahoo Address Book.Because an Internet connection not available"
This make no sense as I am conected to the internet. iTunes can acess the iTunes Store without a problem. I can also access the Web.
Any ideas?I ran into this problem just within the past couple of weeks. I found someting on another discussion group on the net about someone with the same problem. They said that it was because one of their notes was too long.
I looked at my notes and wouldn't you know it, I created a couple of extra long notes a couple of weeks ago! I deleted them and I am able to sync without errors again. I didn't know there was a size limit for a note on the iphone.
PS. I have an iPhone 3GS, iOS 5.1.1, iTunes 10.6.3.25 -
How do I sync with Yahoo address book into my phones contacts? iphone 4
"Itunes could not sync with Yahoo address book because you are not registered to sync with yahoo. please enter your yahoo ID and password again"
Where do I do this?When I first pluged in the iphone 4 it transfered the contacts ... I since updated them and now get the message ....
"Itunes could not sync with Yahoo address book because you are not registered to sync with yahoo. please enter your yahoo ID and password again" -
I am so sorry that I ever signed up for iCloud. The only thing that ever worked is that I had two messages drop into iCloud when there was an open wifi connection. It is synced with Yahoo. It was taking up so much space as I had a lot of attachments, nothing sent, they just sat there, I had to cut and paste them into my Yahoo! account and send them.
Last nigth were were looking at the reason that my brand new Mac Air had ZERO memory. It was the iCloud messages that were stuck. I then went in and deleted everything. I have tried to turn iCloud off via a pull down menu. Did not work. I have now lost all of my sent and received messages in my Yahoo Account. My inbox is completely empty. I believe I still have sent messages though. These were messages that I had cut and pasted into Yahoo! to get them sent. Now my Yahoo! is wiped out.
I am a writer. I need those messages recovered. I am an end user. I need instructions in English on how to recover this. If there is anyone that can help me, I am desparate. I imagine Apple could retrieve them for me though there is no where to contact them.
I thought it was cool until, such time as I LOST EVERYTHING.Lord K. Thank you. Yes I am within the 90 time period, however I travel Intertionally and I can not receive not make a call to Apple. I was just at the Genius Bar in Chicago and they said, don't worry about it. It just floats out there, however, I can not recover my messages on a flash drive. I need to go back to my old computer which I don't have with me. My messages were in folders for a lawsuit. It is going to take an incredible amount of work for me to, you have no Idea. We are talking thousands of pages! I the defendent will have them during discovery so I am not so worried. However, I can not bring them to him on a Flashdrive when I meet with him without an extraordinary amount of presssure on my part. THis is not just some little email issue.

iOS 7 ugrade failed " Error:Device disappeared during timed transition". Phone will not now turn on or sync with itunes, any ideas please?
if a Mac OSX Computer is in near - try iBackup Viewer.
This is free of charge and can read your backup.
and thats the main difference. Those tools are reading the saved Data in the backup
but itunes attempts to restore the data from the backup on your iphone. if there are any corrupted data in the backup - the backup restore goes wrong. this can happen during security software or wrong corrupt data already stored on the iphone.
if itunes messed up to restore from backup try this one :
- restore your iphone to factory settings using HT1808 or reset all settings and content direct from iphone
- rename your iPhone (e.g. iPhone Test)
- setup your iPhone as new device -> attempt to make a new backup - if successful -
- click in itunes on restore from backup... and choose your desired backup
or go to:
Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(Username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Windows Vista - Windows 7: \Users\(Username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Pull your complete BackupFolder and try a different PC - copy the BackupFolder on this different PC in the same Path above - start iTunes and see if your Backup is there - attempt to restore from Backup again -
When using compressor voice is not sync with video. What causes this and how to fix it, please?
Although you say you have let the battery drain, was it for long enough? Since nothing else that you've tried so far has worked, I suggest that you leave the iPod unplugged for at least four days, preferably a week. That way, if something is stopping the iPod from turning the screen on, then whatever it is will drain the battrey. However, since the screen isn't on, that may take longer than if the screen was on.
Then, after that time, plug the iPod into a power source and leave it alone for at least thirty minutes. Only after thirty minutes will it show any signs of life, but you should leave it until it is fully charged before trying to use it.
If you get to this stage, the fact that the battery has drained will cause the iPod to reset when it springs back to life.
Let us know how you get on. -
Mountain lion contacts won't sync with Yahoo
Just upgraded and the option in Contacts > Accounts > On My Mac . Sync with Yahoo is missing. Also, sync with Yahoo is not working. Has anyone found a fix for this or is Apple responding with a patch?
nqk, I also get that error message frequently, and just tried Jennifer's suggestion of turning off the firewall and virus protection temporarily, my results were I still got the error a couple of times, but was able to sync the contacts without the error many more times than before. Happy to say I've got an iMac on order and am looking forward to it. Thanks Jennifer B for your suggestion.
Hope this helps.
