Text Shortcuts on Mac not syncing with iOS Devices

It appears that my iOS devices are syncing text shortcuts, because when I add/remove one from one device, it's replicated on the other devices.
However, text shortcut changes made on my Mac ( Macbook Air, latest Mavericks version ) are not replicated to the iOS devices, and vice-versa. It's like my iPad and iPhone have decided to share with each other , and ignore my Mac.
I tried deleting the com~apple~Textinput folder, but that did not have any effect. I also tried turning iCloud off and on on my Mac, and that did not help, either.
Ideas on how to fix this?

I figured it out, I turned off Document syncing on all devices, then deleted the ~Library/Mobile Documents/com~apple~TextInput folder instead of the subfolders that I deleted the first time, Then I turned document syncing back on (warning , all text shortcuts are gone! ) on my Mac, and then on my iOS devices.
It took a few minutes for my devices to catchup, but they all went to zero text shortcuts, and I was able to create a new text shortcut on each device and have it replicate to the other devices.
While this fixed my problem, it's a good idea to back up your text shortcuts to another program( evernote? ) in case you need to do what I just did to fix a syncing issue.

WIFI password not synced with iOS device

For short: I'm excluded off my own WIFI net because Apple's iCloud Keychain didn't sync the WIFI password from my MacBook to my iPad.
For my holidays I bought a nice portable WIFI hard disk. This device can not only take the memory cards of my camera and store the images without any computer, but also establishes a WIFI network, by which I can access the content of the mobile harddisk wirelessly.
At home, I configured this neat device with my MacBookPro and accessed it via WIFI by choosing the WIFI hard disk's network and entering the password, which Apple suggested during the configuration process of the WIFI hard disk. At this moment (entering the WIFI password to connect with the hard disk's network), I had to recurr onto the OSX keychain helper: look for the formerly entered password and paste it into the WIFI accounting form - and check the box "store in the icloud keychain". Ok.
Ok? Nothing's ok on my iOS devices (iPad and iPhone). Why?
By checking the box, I was sure that the password would indeed be synced with and stored within the iCloud keychain.
But I went wrong!
Now on holidays, with my camera, my iPad, my WIFI hard disk and – without my MacBookPro (because it's a holidays killer) – I tried to connect my iPad with the WIFI of the mobile hard disk. Seeing it's WIFI network, I tapped on it and got the accounting dialog: Enter password.
Which password?!?
I had instructed the Apple iCloud to store this password – and deliver it to any authorized device if needed.
But Apple, seemingly, did NOT do this and failed to deliver the password to my iPad (which is naturally registered to the same Apple ID as my MacBook).
What shall I do now? I have NO access neither to my MacBookPro (which is at home) nor to my iCloud keychain (which Apple thinks the best to protect against me).
To be honest, I feel patronized in a very ugly way by Apple - once again.
My question is: Why isn't there a way to access or manage the iCloud keychain from an iOS device? Should it be that Apple thinks these devices are LESS SECURE?
Any help is very welcome! Thanks in advance.

Thanks, FromSouth -
I called Apple Support and they also said that she has to have access to my iCloud account. We did figure out that some of the notes from 2011 and 2012 are from a shared business account which also allows notes, but that is a Verizon account and should not impact, in any way, shape, or form, the iCloud account.
I do not believe my daughter actually did this; I am guessing that her iCloud account was also accessed by her husband (who is not a good guy), and he, without her knowledge, synced her iCloud to his iPhone to track all her stuff. I then believe he got hold of mine and did the same a couple of days ago, as we are all together for a large family vacation (in the same house).
I guess I have a couple more questions about this, though:
Normally, when you sync a new device with your account, you get a message on all your old devices - but I did not get anything of the kind. How would this be possible? I guess maybe if he synced it while standing there with my iPad, then my iPad would get an alert, and he would just turn it off?? (I know all this sounds excessive, but believe me, he'd go to this length.)
I find it difficult to believe that he could have cracked my iCloud password - it's not something that anyone would ever put together easily. How would he be able to access the account without a password? Is there any kind of app or software that he could have installed on my iPad that would allow that? (Again, believe me, he'd do it.)
Is there any way to see in iCloud what devices are linked to the account? That alone would show me what device has this.
Finally, I have my iPad password-protected, so I cannot imagine he would have gotten into my iPad in the first place...how would he have gained access to this otherwise? I really thought I was being very smart on how I set this all up, and two days in the same location as him and now this....
I really thank you for any help you can give me on this one...
Thanks!

ITunes 11.1.1 will not sync with ios 7.02 - "waiting for changes to applied"

iTunes 11.1.1 running on MacBook Air will not sync with ios 7.02 - "waiting for changes to be applied". I have been having this issue since upgrading to 11.1. I thought the upgrade to 11.1.1 will take care of it

Yes, my iPhone 5 running ios 7 will not sync in *any* way with itunes now. I can neither add nor remove content via itunes. I just tried to delete 100% of my music from my iphone, it hung forever on "Waiting for changes to be applied" and then when it was finally done... no changes had been applied.
I can't add, remove, change, delete or in any way of any kind sync my iphone with itunes any longer.
I'm becoming the person who refuses to update to the new Apple OS. I used to get very excited about new OS updates. That all ended around Mountain Lion. Yesterday when I saw that Mavericks was out I wasn't excited. Instead I felt a sense of dread, and for good reason. Every time they release an OS in the last few years it's just a cluster-F.

Email settings DO NOT WORK WITH iOS Devices

Vz keeps sending these "important" instructions for email port settings, BUT they do not work with iOS devices--iPhones and iPads. Last go around with this I spent over 16 hours trying to reconcile until an Apple Expert discovered "special" instructions for iOS device settings. Get with the program, Verizon.

So what are the special instructions?

IPhoto sync with iOS Devices does not work

I have an 2007 iMac with OS X 10.9.1, iTunes 11.1.3 and iPhoto 9.5.1.
I have an iPad 2 with iOS 7.0.4 and iPhone 4 with iOS 7.0.4.
Around the update to OS X 10.9 I have the problem that I can't sync my iPhoto pictures with my iOS devices anymore.
Beforehand I had no problem. But I can't tell exactly when this problem pop up the first time. (iOS 7, OSX 10.9, iTunes or iPhoto update???)
The problem is: I can sync all my content with my iOS devices per iTunes without any problemsbut not the fotos from the iPhoto library.
If I go to the Foto sync page in iTunes I see all my iPhoto Albums, Events, ... I can select and desect all these items. But if I sync this items I see that in the used memory bar no pictures are shown, the foto count do not show any number and on the iOS device all pictures are removed.
To fix this problem I have tried some options.
I have disabled the foto sync in iTunes, close iTunes, close iPhoto, remove the iPod cache from the iPhoto library, recreated the iPhoto database, obened iPhot and iTunes again, connectd the iOS device and try to sync some albums from the iPhoto libray again. But no pictuers are synced.
I have created a new iPhoto library and added some fotos to the new library, created some albums. Then I tried to sync the iOS device with this library. The first sync wored. :-). But then I disconnected the iOS device and later I connected it again and synced another time and all fotos are gone again.
The only way I can sync my fotos is to switch to folder sync instead of iPhoto library sync. This work, but this is a very bad option!
What can I do to fix this problem?

Open the iPhoto Libraray with the Finder as shown in this screenshot
and locate the folder titled iPod Photo Cache and move it to the Desktop.
Close iPhoto, lanuch and try again.

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!

Date changes in Aperture not syncing with IOS 7 iPhone iPad

Hi, there are a certain number of photos in my Aperture library which are showing the correct date or have had the date and time adjusted but when synced to iPhone or iPad the dates are completely wrong. It seems to be fairly random, any clues?
Thanks

I recently experienced the same problem wth images that had adjusted dates in Aperture. Though I can't offer an explanation as to what went wrong, I did manage to solve it.
In iTunes deselect any synced photo albums which contain images that are displaying incorrect dates in iOS7 - sync your iOS device (the albums and images will be removed). Now select the photo albums again in iTunes, resync your device - the images will be added again with the correct dates (well that was my experience. Best of luck).

ITunes Match - Sync with iOS device

I am thinking about buying iTunes Match, but i first wanna make clear some things up...
here are my questions:
1. Will I ever have to sync my iPhone again with my computer (over WIFI or Cable) or will my iPhone automatically download the music! Or will i have to individually download the music on to my phone? Because now if I load a new CD in my iTunes i just plug my phone into my MacBook and after that all my selected playlists will be updated and ready to listen to (without any internet conection obviousely), how will this be with iTunes Match?
e.g.: I have this new cool tune that I import and put into my list "my favorite songs"! Will this song immediately be on the same list on my phone? online or offline?
2. What do I have to do if i wanna delete an album on my computer? But I mean delete it forever, also out of the cloud! how do i do this, and will these tunes also dissapear on my iPhone (like they do now as soon as I sync my iOS device with my Mac)? Will I have this music present in my cloud forever?
Thank you for your help!
Cheers
Yannick B.

Hello Yannick B.
Once you have enabled iTunes Match and then add music from a CD, it will automatically add those to iTunes Match for you or you can go to a drop down menu Store > Update iTunes Match to add the tracks. If you have iTunes Match enabled on your iPhone, you will see the changes rather quickly once uploaded.
If you want to delete music from iTunes Match, just delete the tracks and a prompt will ask if you want to delete from iCloud. That should answer those questions for you.

Yahoo calender will not sync on iOS device

Hello,
My Yahoo calender will not sync with the standard calender app on my iPhone. New appointments, entered in the Yahoo calender appear not on the iPhone.
Switchting on/off the calender in Yahoo forces an update to the iPhone, nothing else helps. Anyone familiar with this problem?
Thanks.

had same issues. I put event via iphone and did not sync with yahoo but did with ical on the mac. main problem was writing events on the iphone not syncing. I have tried many ways to solve but I may have seemed to solve it (for me anyway) but you could give it a try.
Go to Settings- Mail,contacts,calenders.
Scroll down to calenders.
Choose DEFAULT CALENDER.
If it is ticked on icloud change it to Yahoo! which is probably at the top.
I then tried to write an event via the iphone and hey presto, it was added to my yahoo and ical calenders. Remember it may take a while unless you have set everything to push. i will give this a few tests (as i onlytried it a few moments ago myself) but seems to work.

Apps will not sync with our devices?

We have both an ipad and an itouch. Both sync to the same Windows 7 PC. We have two accounts at the itunes store. Recently our NY times Apps (itouch and ipad) will not sync with their respective device(s). The Apps appear in itunes, but when I attempt to sync the App to the device... the App noes not appear in the list to be brought over to either the ipad or itouch.
Thanks

OK - thus is what confuses me now .... You said in your first post the apps appear in iTunes.
When someone says that they can see the apps in iTunes - I just take for granted that they mean they can see it in the apps list of the Apps Tab in the iTunes library. So you are saying that even though the apps are in the iTunes library they will not show up in the sync apps list?
Have you tried to transfer the apps back to the iTunes library from the iDevices using Transfer purchases? Again, being careful that you are using the correct ID on the iPad and transferring to the correct iTunes library.
You can always download the apps again in iTunes on the iPad via the purchased tab.

Does iBooks for Mac not sync with iBooks for iOS?

I just created an iBook in iBooks Author, exporting to a created iBooks file, but yet is all pointless, as I cannot seem to share it with anybody - not even with myself! Trying to get it on my iOS device, I'm frustratingly unable to do so.
I am able to open it on my Mac with iBooks, but that's it... I tried to sync it to my iPhone by old school hardwiring it to my Mac to sync, but can't get my iBook even into iTunes in order to have it sync!
What's the whole point of the thing if you can't share what it is you created with anyone?!

yup, I have the same thing, i can't see Book on itunes, when i upgrade 10.9. How should i do to sync ibook,
Please help, many thanks

Mac not synced with iCloud (iPad/iphone)

Nothing is synced with the new install of ML. I've updated apps, made sure i'm signed in icloud but i can't seem to get anything to work.
EX: when i click on the cloud icon near the address bar, it just says that it will show open tabs on other iOS devices. i have open windows, but it doesn't work
Also, Pages is fully updated, but when i make a change on my mac, it will not show up on my ipad.
any suggestions? what did i miss?
thanks.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
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.
