TS3999 I installed ic;oud on my iphone 4s and my pc laptop ruunning windows 7 and Outlook 2010, my new calendar information is not syncling? Thoughts?
I installed iCloud on my iPhone 4S and PC running Windows 7 and Outlook 2010. My calendar is not syncing when I put in new information. Solutions?
I would say that you would want to look into the "Exchange Mode" for GMail. That would allow your iPhone to sync calendars, contacts and email with GMail just fine. Doing the same with your outlook should also then sync those same with your PC using Outlook. I've done teh iPhone side of this, but I since I don't run Lookout for my email client, I'm not sure how that will work on the PC side.

So everything on this page relates to Apple products. I am running a Sony laptop with Windows and as soon as I install iCloud desktop iTunes has stopped working. The only time I ever needed it. GREAT! Do you do this on purpose?
The latest version of iTunes tends to act up occassionaly. See this support document http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923 and remove and reinstall iTunes. This will not affect your music library, apps or other content in iTunes. Make sure you follow the steps exactly.
Also, just copying the ringtone will not get it into your phone. iPhone ringtones have an extension of m4r, and you have to first take the Media player file and covert it to an AAC version. From there you need to change the extension from m4a to m4r. If you cannot see file extensions in Windows Explorer, which is actually the default action, go into Organize>Folder and search options, then hit the View tab, and then remove the checkmark by hide file extensions from known file types. After you have created the m4a version and changed the file extension, you can double-click on it and it should show up in the Tones folder in iTunes. From there, sync the phone and it should show up in the list of ringtones. -
I purchased a new Windows 8 PC and I use Outlook 2010 for my calendar. With my old Windows 7 PC and Outlook 2010, my calendar would sync with my Iphone 5, but with the new Windows 8 PC and Outlook 2010, it does not, and I can't figure out how to snyc them. The emails from Outlook 2010 sync, but the calendar does not. Help! Thanks.
Easy solution for restoring lost calendar informaiton, thank goodness. On your iPhone, go to settings, then to iCloud. If your Calendar selection is turned off, turn it on. Your info should restore. If your Calendar selection is turned on, then turn it off. Choose to save calendars when asked. After it shuts the Calendar off, turn it back on. Your info should be restored.
Thank you to Apple support for walking me through this. Shame on you Apple for not just telling people about this easy fix rather than making us go through all of this pain and worry.

I went to the ICloud Control Panel 2.1 to enable iCloud photos, the area to put a ck mark is grayed out and won't let me enable it.
This is on my HP desktop Windows 7. I have iphone 5 and newset iPad that do fine on iCloud.
Please help me to get my iCloud photos enabled on my desktop.Hello,
You might not have the plugin for Firefox installed. Adobe has two different versions of Flash - one for Internet Explorer and another for Firefox. Internet Explorer uses ActiveX. You can check if Firefox has the plugin by going to:
* Tools > Add-ons > Plugins, or
* [Image: New Fx Menu] > Add-ons > Plugins
In Firefox, go to this link and Adobe should give you right correct installer:
* https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
If for whatever reason it is not choosing the correct OS for you, you can manually select Windows Vista and "Other Browsers" here:

New calendar in GCal not adding to iPad/iPhone.
I recently added a calendar to my Gmail account, but the new calendar will not appear on my iPad/iPhone. My other Gmail calendars show, but they were there when I set up the iPad/iPhone initially. Any way to fix this?

Y'all wasting your time with these workarounds. It is not apples problem and its not an Outlook problem its a simple problem w YOUR datafiles!! and it is going to keep on happening until you correct it.
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1632805&tstart=0
This does not explain why many Mac users report problems syncing iCal with iPhone after the iPhone firware 2.0 and iTunes 7.7 update. It also does not explain why some users of Outlook 2007 who are using a totally new data file created with Outlook 2007 are also having the same problem.
It's not about whose fault it is, it's about fixing a problem. If there are a lot of iPhone users who are unable to sync their calendars, regardless of the reason, that is a problem for Apple. I'm not saying it's Apple's fault, but it's a problem for them.
Word of mouth has sold millions of iPods and apparently now, millions of iPhones. People are accustomed to having their Apple products "just work". Syncing calendars is something that iPhone users can reasonably expect to be able to do, without having to worry about the data file format or other technical details. I'm confident that Apple will come up with a fix, because I do agree with you that the workarounds are mostly a waste of time. -
Hi,
I have an iphone 4, using IOS 5.0.1 and have always synced it to my laptop (windows vista, 32 bit). I have recently bought a new desktop computer (Windows 7, 64 bit) and after putting it off for a while, i've decided to bite the bullet and sync my iphone with my new computer. I have already authorised my itunes account on my new computer, and i don't mind loosing music. I am more concered though about the risk of loosing my text messages and photos on my phone.
Could anyone please tell me if i will loose the messages and photos from my phone when syncing to a new computer.
Thanks alot,
Chris.When you connect the iPhone to sync with the new computer, a number of things will happen. If the new computer/iTunes does not contain any music, then yes, you will receive a prompt saying this iPhone is synced to another library, and if you continue, you will lose your music. However, you risk losing a number of other things, such as apps, contacts and calendar data. When you ask about photos, any photos that you have on the iPhone that were synced from the previous computer would also be lost. You need to save the photo folder from the old laptop and transfer that to the new desktop. You also need to sync the contacts and calendar to the same supported application that you were using in the past, such as Outlook, unless you are using an outside web-based sync, such as Google. Also, when you first connect the iPhone, it will make a backup, or at least make sure that it does before you attempt to sync, or you will not have a backup of some of the other things, such as mail settings, SMS, and the contents of the Camera Roll. I would import the photos from the camera roll to the new computer before trying to do anything else in iTunes.

I backup my iphone onto itunes on my laptop. Recently I got a new laptop, so that counts at two itunes locations.
Unfortunately this new laptop was faulty and had to be set up again from scratch.
Apple now says that's three itunes locations when in fact it's two.
How can I get this changed back to two locations?If by locations you mean "authorized computers" then one of your computers (apparently the new laptop) may be using multiple authorizations.
To check on this and correct see here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1206 -

Unable to install iCloud on Windows 7 Outlook 2010
Up until recently iCloud calendars were syncing well with Outlook but had for some reason stopped. 2.1 was issued and tried uninstalling and reinstalling the update.
Able to download and install CP2.1.
Able to log onto my iCloud account.
Setting up CP I click "Mail, Contacts, Calendars, etc." and ...
"Your setup couldn't be started because of an unexpected error"
In trying to frame the issue I tried signing out and signing in under a different iCloud account that contains calendar, email and contact information. It worked fine. Unfortunately this isn't the account I want to use.
Any ideas?It is an ongoing issue with installing iTunes 7 on Windows.
What often solve the problem is running installer as Administrator
and the opening iTunes as Administrator
Right click on the installer and "Run As Administrator"
Also as b noir mentioned - can you post the error message?
This would help. -

My iphone 4 cant seem to sync my contacts with outlook 2010
I just purchased an iphone 4 and I cant sync my contacts with my outlook. Any ideas how to resolve this issue?
I think you have to choose which program you want to sync with, when your phone is pluged in and iTunes is up, go to contacts, calendars, and a drop down menu should pop up. you should be able to select outlook fom the list.

I am trying to install the NI PCMCIA-GPIB card on an IBM A22m NT2000 laptop. The GPIB V1.7 driver installs properly and recognizes the interface but fails to locate instruments.
The troubleshooter Wizard reports an unknown hardware error that may be due to a resource conflict or configuration error. I checked for hardware conflicts and found none and found no errors in the event viewer.
The Laptop was originally installed with WIN98 and the PCMCIA card worked fine then. After installing NT2000 I uninstalled the GPIB driver and reinstalled it. The card also works properly on another laptop with Win95.Hi Dave,
You should try using the lastest driver for the PCMCIA-GPIB interfaces. This is NI-488.2 2.1. You can find it in the Driver and Updates page.

I'm seriously distressed because I don't want to have to delete my music and I don't want to have to pay a lot of additional money to sync with an outside program. Please help.
You can restore from your backup. You do have backups, right?

I'm trying to add events to my calendar after they got deleted and it won't let me because the + is grey when it should be orange. Does anyone know what to do?
You are on Windows 2000, you do not have a "Firefox" button, and should consider yourself to be fortunate in that you still have menus and don't have to do anything to get the menus back instead of the "Firefox" button. (The same applies to Windows XP users).
Use the "File" menu to get to Import. You are not on Windows 7 or Vista, and don't have to put up with the nonsense added for Aero.
If you want the "Firefox" button you can get it with View -> toolbars -> (uncheck) Menu Bar. The menu bar and the "Firefox" button were supposed to be mutually exclusive (which is impossible in some cases without being incompatible).
Once you are using the "Firefox" button ...
Use the "Alt" key to view the menu bar (temporarily) containing File, Edit, View, History, Bookmarks, Tools, and Help. On Windows 7 and Vista, the menu bar was hidden by default in Firefox 4 and above. These menu items are more or less available under the "Firefox" button which has the most used of the built-in Firefox menu items available in a different format.
To get back to having menus again. "Firefox" button -> Options (second column) -> (check) Menu Bar
You can make '''Firefox 7.0.1''' look like Firefox 3.6.*, see numbered '''items 1-10''' in the following topic [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/firefox-problems.htm#fx4interface Fix Firefox 4.0 toolbar user interface, problems (Make Firefox 4.0 thru 8.0, look like 3.6)]. ''Whether or not you make changes, you should be aware of what has changed and what you have to do to use changed or missing features.''
