TS4062 Contact Sync Question - iPhone to Macbook Pro

I made a change to one of my contacts on my iPhone.  After I connected my iPhone to my Macbook Pro, started iTunes and clicked sync and allowed sync to finish, why does the change that I made not appear in the same contact on my Macbook address book?

Hello jonhurd,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
For more information, take a look at:
iTunes 11 for Mac: Sync contacts, calendars, and other info with iPod, iPhone, or iPad

If you have problems syncing, try syncing only certain information. For example, deselect the Sync checkboxes on the Music, Photos, Podcasts, and Video panes, and try syncing only Info.
Have a nice day,

  • 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.

  • IBooks and podcasts won't sync between iPhone, iPad, MacBook Pro

    I have an iPad 2, an iPhone 5s and a MacBook Pro (Mavericks) - all are on the cloud and wifi sync, all permissions are there, settings are correct.  The iBooks issue I had was between the MacBook and the iPad - I put some PDF files into iBooks on my MacBook and when I went to the iPad they were not there.  Even after syncing, connecting directly to the MacBook via USB - nothing.  They are there now, but I have no idea how that happened.  I tried that a week ago.
    This morning on my commute into work, I added a couple of podcasts to the Apple podcast app on my iPhone 5s.  When I got into the office and went to the podcasts app on my iPad, they were not there.  Even after syncing on wifi (I don't have my MacBook with me so I haven't tried direct syncing).
    Am I misunderstanding how the wifi syncing works altogether?  Or is my iPad the issue?  Any help is appreciated!

    Hi vichochile,
    If you are having an issue with syncing your new iPhone with the information that is in iCloiud (and on your other devices) we should make sure that iCloud is set up correctly on the iPhone. See this page for directions -

  • Ical sync from iPhone to Macbook Pro

    Using my MacBook Pro with Lion OS, I can create an event that shows up on my phone, but not the reverse. I can add an appointment on my iphone 4g (IOS 5), but it doesnt show up on my iCal on my computer. I have signed up for the iCloud. Does anyone know what is wrong?

  • What setting will make sync make my iPhone and MacBook Pro contact cards alike?

    What setting will make sync make my iPhone and MacBook Pro contact cards alike?  I've been having to key in changes to both devices because sync doesn't sync. 

    If you really are running Mac OS X 10.7.5 and iOS 6.1.3, you should be able to sync through iTunes, but in current releases you need to use a central contact service like iCloud.
    Did you have it working and then not working, or have you never had it working?
    Are you trying to use iTunes, iCloud, or something else?

  • My iphone4s died, mom gave me her old 3gs, i had to get a new sim to fit the 3gs, how can I sync all my old contacts? I have a macbook pro, tech told me that it would sync from my icloud but it has not. Thanks!

    Syncing the 3GS is exactly the same as syncing the 4S - so just do the same as you've been doing.
    How do you normally sync contacts from your Mac to your iPhone? Via iTunes over USB/WiFi, or via iCloud?

  • I only show one iCloud on my IPhone that can do a restore. I synced it with my MacBook Pro and I think that may have messed things up. Prior to that I have several backups. Will a "genius" be able to access the info I need?

    I only show one iCloud on my IPhone that can do a restore. I synced it with my MacBook Pro and I think that may have messed things up. Prior to that I have several backups. Will a "genius" be able to access the info I need?

    If things seem to be going haywire with your phone, it seems that it MAY be a software issue.
    Now, that being said, that does not necessarily mean that it is a virus. Software issues do happen sometimes. It is probably just coincidence.
    What you need to do is restore the device using iTunes. This will fix any software issues. After you have done this, you can restore from an iCloud backup.
    iCloud does not back up the actual software, so no, the "virus" would not have gotten into the backups.
    The link below provides steps on restoring your device using iTunes as well as how to restore from an iCloud backup.

    Don't worry! Everything should be back to normal if you follow these steps.

    You probably want to open a ticket with the maker of the app.

  • I have my ipad, iphone, and macbook pro all synced together.  I receive all my emails on the macbook and iphone just fine, but don't receive all emails on my ipad.  Some go to Trash because it says they're improperly formatted.  What gives?

    I have my ipad, iphone, and macbook pro all synced together, which generally works fine.  I receive all emails from senders in my address book in my Macbook Pro and iPhone, but some end up in Trash on my iPad, with the message, "This message cannot be displayed because of the way it is formatted.  Ask the sender to send it again using a different format or email program.  text/plain"  They appear to be mainly from competing platforms, android, etc.  Is there a workaround for this problem?
    Thanks-

    POP: yahoo, aol, comcast/time warnder/road runner
    Imap: google, hotmail, and more including icloud.
    If you want to use multiple devices - move to imap, I would even say "exchange", but Google does not support free exchange anymore, since January of that year. So Ironically  Icloud or Hotmail would be my choices right now.
    To find out more about what happens to you, search on Google "difference between pop and imap"

  • Lost iCal data after attempt to use iCloud...possible to sync from iPhone to Macbook?

    I attempted to enable iCloud on my MacBook Pro, and after seeing that it was deleting all of the data on my iCal, I realized that it wiped out all of the data on my iCal . I stopped the iCloud sync quickly after.
    However, my iPhone 4 has a recently synced copy of all the data, and I was wondering if anyone knew of a way to transfer the events on my iPhone to my Macbook?
    I am running OSX Mountain Lion 10.8.2.
    Thank you, any help is much appreciated!

    I believe sync is working.  I think IOS 6.1.2 caused some new attribute in the event record that Calendar doesn't recognize.
    I do not use iCloud (had the same problem with multiple duplicate events which took hours to fix) for calendars or contacts.  I sync wirelessly with my MacBook Pro once or twice a day: very painless.
    Since I updated my iPhone to IOS 6.1.2, events created on the iPhone do not show up in Calendar.  Events created in Calendar do show up on the iPhone.
    I also have an iPad which I updated to IOS 6.1.2 over the weekend.
    If I create an event on the iPhone, then sync with the Mac, then sync the iPad, the event shows up on the iPad.  The only place the event could have come from is the Mac.  Calendar still does not show the event.
    My guess is that there will be a Calendar update soon.  I hope so.  It was driving me nuts.

    Check out the article below to setup the syncing of your bookmarks to your iPhone. You could also use iCloud to sync those for you automatically.
