Trouble syncing with MobileMe after password change

I recently updated my iphone to iOS5 and installed a new windows 7 computer at home, in the process, mobile me insisted I change my password. Now the work computer will not sync with mobile me even though I have updated the password at least 8 to 10 times (It keeps saying that I have changed the password and need to put it in again.  Now it looks like the password took, but it still will not sync even when I go into preferences and try to do it manually.

This is the iSync forum - please try asking in the relevant MobileMe forum.

  • Missing a calendar in iCal after syncing with MobileMe....

    i am having some problems with iCal ...i am missing one my Calendars in iCal and wasn't sure how to get it back. I downloaded the calendars file and calendar.plist from my Time Machine backup...the missing calendar showed up at first, but it seemed to disappear right away (i assume after syncing with MobileMe.) Not sure what would be the easiest way to bring it back.......

    It's possible to restore from Time Machine, though it's a slightly complicated process. Please follow very carefully the steps described here:

  • When I receive appointments by email and accept them they go into the enourage "on my mac" ical calendar which is not synced with mobileme.  How do I change where appointments are put ?

    When I receive appointments by email and accept them they go into the enourage "on my mac" ical calendar which is not synced with mobileme.  How do I change where appointments are put ?
    Or how can I choose where the appointment is put ?
    I use the mobileme sync services so the ical calendars that are synced are those in the "[email protected]" group.
    Please help !
    Nick

    Actually you can't drag the appointment to ano calendar - its says "You can’t make changes to this invitation., Only the organiser can change this event"
    Also if you double click on the received appointment and open the window the only calendars shown that you can select are the 'on my mac" ones, and not the sync'd ones.
    Any ideas welcome !!

  • Cant get ical to sync with iphone after installing OSX

    cant get ical to sync with iphone after installing OSX

    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.

  • Deleting iPhone contacts & syncing with MobileMe

    I had been syncing iphone contacts to a mobileme account and then wanted to instead sync them to another mobileme account (the main account in a family).  This is a problem since you cannot delete all the contacts on the iPhone (I had 2000 of them.) and iPhone syncing with mobileme does not allow you to replace contacts on the iPhone with what is on mobileme.  (iPhone allows only a merge which would duplicate contacts and add many I no longer wanted.)  After considering the "solution" offered by a "Genuis" which was to reset the iPhone and start over which is a painful process to reorganize the apps and login all apps that require it, etc.  Instead I developed the following procedure that worked great (This was with Mac OS 10.6.8 and IOS 4.3.5):
    1) Sync address book on Mac to make sure mobileme is up to date.
    2) Backup all the address book to an address book archive and/or select all contacts and save in a vcard file (File -> Export)
    3) Uncheck sync of contacts in MobileMe (Apple -> System Preferences -> MobileMe -> Sync tab)
    4) Select all contacts in Address Book and hit delete (Edit -> Select All, then hit delete)
    5) Select all groups in Address Book and delete (select first group, hold shift and click last group, then hit delete)
    6) Connect iPhone and sync.  Go to info tab in iTunes and select Sync Address Book Contacts, then Under Advanced, check Replace Information on this iPhone - Contacts.  This will transfer contacts (none) from Mac to iPhone which will delete all existing iPhone contacts.  Click apply and then sync.
    7) After sync, disconnect iPhone and verify there are no contacts on iPhone.
    8) On iPhone, go to Settings -> Mail, Contacts, Calendars, Accounts -> MobileMe (login if you haven't done so), turn on Contacts (to sync with mobileme)
    9) In a few minutes, the contacts on the iPhone (none) will be merged with the desired contacts in MobileMe and the contacts in MobileMe should show up in the iPhone Address book - This completes the iPhone.
    10) On the Mac, go to Apple->System Preferences->Mobile Me->Sync tab and recheck Contacts.  Click Advanced, Reset Sync Data, select only Contacts and transfer contacts from MobileMe cloud to the Mac, and click Replace.
    11) In a few minutes, all contacts and groups from MobileMe should show up in the Mac Address book and you are done.

    Yes I did select merge.
    Did it 2 times without anything happening on iPhone or MobileMe.
    Third time it deleted my contacts on the iPhone.
    Is there no option to tell it which direction to do the merge/sync?

  • IPhone Contacts & Calendars not syncing with mobileme

    Apologies if there is a solution to this posted already, I can't find it despite extensive searching!
    My iPhone Calendars & Contacts do not sync with MobileMe. I can't find a way of exporting or saving the data on the iPhone and importing it into my desktop iCal & Contacts apps.
    I have looked at all troubleshooting help I can find, and all is suggested is deleting/ resetting the phone & syncing from MobileMe. However, if I do this I will lose lots of contacts & calendar entries.
    The data will NOT sync from my phone despite following all available instructions. My desktop apps are all set to sync with MobileMe & this works fine, it's just the iPhone data will not transfer to MobileMe.
    Please help!!

    Since you are syncing your iPhone with your Mac, it should be syncing your contacts and calendars with your Mac as well (and your bookmarks if you have it set up to sync). You should have Mobile Me setup on your Mac to at least sync your Calendars and Contacts, which should be updating your Mobile Me account. If you want to check to make sure that all of your contacts that are on your iPhone are on your Mac, simply open up the Contacts App. Once you check this, add your Mobile Me account to your iPhone and let it sync your contacts and calendars, it will delete all the contacts and calendars that are currently on your iPhone, but the same data is on your Mac anyways. Once Mobile Me syncs with your iPhone you won't have to worry about it anymore.
    If you are having problems where you already setup your Mobile Me account on your iPhone and it's not syncing properly, deleted it, restart your iPhone, then add it again.
    Does this help?

  • What is the SAFEST SEQUENCE to convert from a Outlook/iPad/iPhone synced with MobileMe to syncing with iCloud (I have 10 years of calendar diary events and 3000 contacts) - I am worried about the data issues that have been posted about iCloud.

    What is the SAFEST SEQUENCE to convert from a Outlook/iPad/iPhone synced with MobileMe to syncing with iCloud (I have 10 years of calendar diary events and 3000 contacts) - I am worried about the data issues that have been posted about iCloud.
    This has worked fine with MobileMe with only a couple of minor glitches in the past.
    Any experience doing this the "right" way?

  • Notes has stoped sync with icloud after I upgraded to 7.0.2?

    Notes (on my iPhone and iPad) has stoped sync with icloud after I upgraded to 7.0.2. All others items like Contacts, Calendars, etc. are able to sync. any solutions.

    Now iTunes won't open. It doesn't give me any error messages it just won't open the window.
    some preliminary questions aimed at narrowing in on possible culprits.
    (1) do you have Norton Internet Security 2005 installed on the PC?
    (2) try launching your QuickTime. does it:
    (a) launch perfectly fine?
    (b) fail to launch with an error message? (if so, what does it say?)
    (c) exhibit other peculiar behavior? (if so, could you describe it for us?)
    (3) reboot the PC. bring up your Task Manager, and click on the "Processes" tab. now try to launch itunes again.
    does an "itunes.exe" process appear in the Processes tab? if so, does it persist in there or does it disappear after a few seconds?

  • The login page of EM lost just after password changed

    hi,
    recently, i changed the passwords of SYS, SYSTEM, SYSMAN. when i tried to manage the system through a browser again, i found there is no way to login EM then. I tried to change the passwords back to the previous passwords which created during installation, I wrote 'alter user SYSMAN identified by abc-123' within the sqlplus window and run the statement, but i got a message: 'ORA-00922: missing or invalid option'.
    so, how can i change back the password for the system users?
    or, what should i do after passwords changed, so that let the login page come back?
    thanks!
    ----guo.

    This is because you haven't made changes in emoms.properteis file because password used by the oms are located in the
    $ORACLE_HOME/sysman/config/emoms.properties files
    Any way problem is curable
    1 Go to DBHOME/bin ,Issue comamnd
    alter user sysman identified by "abc-123",
    2 Go to OMSHOME/bin
    emctl stop oms
    3 change the repository password by using comamnd setpasswd oms ,
    4 Start the oms and try to login again
    This is not supported way of changing the passsword , You should use the configuration ui to change the password for the Management Services and Repository target. That is the correct, supported way of setting the password for that target.

  • Experiencing trouble syncing with the 10.3 version of iTunes on my Windows Vista machine. Have uninstalled all Apple software twice, reinstalled and continue to get an error 7 message in connection with the Photo Processor. Any other ideas to try?

    Experiencing trouble syncing with the 10.3 version of iTunes on my Windows Vista machine. Have uninstalled all Apple software twice, reinstalled and continue to get an error 7 message in connection with the Photo Processor. Any other ideas to try?

    Hi,
    got it fixed! My Son had both files on his Win7 iTunes installation. Never mind he had no issues whith ths iTunes and iPhone Sync. So I checked my other Win XP PC, where I don't have this problem syncing my ipad, and surprise. Both files do NOT show up on this PC. So I renamed the iTunesPhotoProcessor.exe I found under c:\program file\iTunes and synced again my iPhone and it went through without any error. So the problem might be and unremoved iTunesPhotoProcessor.exe or the missing iTunesPhotoProcessor.dll under the iTunes install root folder and this even if I had checked that the folder was completely removed during iTunes unistall.
    Please try yourselve and just rename the iTunesPhotoProcessor.exe to iTunesPhotoProcessor.exe_ under c:\program file\iTunes or get a copy of the missing iTunesPhotoProcessor.dll and cp to c:\program file\iTunes.

  • I'm having trouble syncing with icloud.  Please help.

    I'm having trouble syncing with icloud. I'm trying to sync my iphone & my new ipad.  HELP

    go to Settings -> iCloud -> Account     make sure you are using the same account on both devices. then you can select what you want synced to the cloud. once you have chosen what you want to sync the devices should update to match each other. this may take a few minutes for the devices to sync up.

  • Quickbook contacts use to sync with Mobileme.  Why do they not sync with Icloud

    Quickbook contacts use to sync with Mobileme.  Why do they not sync with Icloud

    MobileMe used SyncServices, part of the System, to sync contacts. iCloud uses a different protocol and evidently Quickbooks can't work with this.

  • Address Book won't sync with MobileMe - inconsistent data!

    I recently began getting 'Inconsistent Data' messages when I sync with MobileMe for my Address Book. I have always had an auto sync and never had this issue. I am told to reset the MobileMe data from another computer - which I have tried to do but with similar error results.
    My most recent data is on MobileMe...I have so far failed to sync this data set with what's on my Mac Platforms.
    I have tried to resort to merge data or erase data on this computer from the sync options dialogue box, but still end up with "inconsistent data. Try resetting your data on MobileMe".
    I'm afraid that if I did that, then I will lose all my current data on MobileMe - which is the most recent, since most of my input for my contacts is made directly from my iPhone or iPad (both of which are syncing correctly).
    Anybody have any ideas?

    I have the exact same problem but have not been able to get my computers to sync with contacts although my iphone and Ipad are working perfectly. I tried deleting all my contacts in both mobileme and locally and tried to sync but was unsuccessful and still get the inconsistent data message. I hope someone can help us.
