Unable to sync Calendar and Contacts

Hi,
I have a problem with the syncronization of my Calendar and Contact information. They do not sync via itunes to my new ipod Classic. This is what I get:
"You need to turn on synchronization in iSync preferences before you can sync contacts and calendars."
There is no more isync in Lion?
My setup: Lion, icloud, all updates ...
Can you help me?
Thanks in advance!
Best Regards,
Phillip

  • How to sync calendars and contacts between ios 3.1.3 and Mountain Lion?

    I have a 1st generation iPod touch under iOS 3.1.3 and a MacBook Pro under Mountain Lion 10.8.3 with iTunes 11.0.1.
    Since the upgrade to Mountain Lion syncing calendars and contacts between the iPod Touch and the Mac no longer works.
    I don't want my personal information in Apple's or anybody else's Cloud and anyway iOS 3.1.3 can't use Apple's Cloud.
    So I can no longer sync without a) replacing my iPod Touch which itself works perfectly well and does not need replacing and b) using Apple's Cloud which I do not wish to use for personal data.
    This is a MAJOR AND DAMAGING step backwards by Apple, which they should correct IMMEDIATELY if they wish to keep their increasingly fed-up older customers.
    Time-wasting work-around:
    As I never trust operating system upgrades to not destroy something that "just works", I have Snow Leopard still on another bootable partition on my machine, and Lion on a bootable partition on an external Thunderbolt disc.
    In order to sync, I backup Calendars and Contacts under Mountain Lion under which I do all my normal work, switch to either Snow Leopard or Lion, update iCal and Address Book from the backup files saved under Mountain Lion, sync the iPod Touch, and switch back to Mountain Lion.
    Lots of time wasted with 2 successive re-boots, but at least HERE IS A SOLUTION THAT WORKS - I have seen lots of posts protesting bitterly about this totally unacceptable backwards step - what on earth do Apple hope to gain from this? More sales of newer equipment to replace perfectly functioning older ones? Certainly not from many of us.

    Send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.

  • HT1535 sync calendars and contacts to laptop- Windows 8.1

    I just bought a new laptop running Windows 8.1 and tried to sync calendars and contacts to my iPhone and iPad to the laptop. Contacts were OK, but my iPhone has developed a second calendar called  'Outlook Calendar' and none of the entries in 'Calendar' [which is the one I use] will sync.

    Hello UFondue,

  • Syncing calendar and contacts from windows phone 8...

    How do I set up my windows phone to sync calendar and contacts with BT mail
    Thanks

    Outlook 2003 and 2007 is supported. Outlook 2002 is not supported.
    You must select Outlook for syncing contact information and calendar events under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences.
    And copied from my previous post.
    +If Outlook does not include any contact information or calendar events, before syncing enter one contact and one calendar event. Make these up if needed which can be deleted later.+
    +This should provide a merge prompt when syncing, which you want to select.+

  • How to sync calendar and contact with Galaxy S2 and iCal and Address Book, how to sync calendar and contact with Galaxy S2 and iCal and Address Book

    I have a Galaxy S2, gmail account, hotmail account and want to know the best way to be able to sync calendar and contacts from the Galaxy S2 with iCal and Address Book. I want to be able to make changes on any device and be able to sync the changes.  Hotmail is my main email account and would prefer to use tha account but I know that the Galaxy prefers Google.  Any ideas? 

    You have several ways to sync your phone to a mac.
    You can use Samsung Kies for mac. You can download it here.
    You can also use Google for it. Open Adress Book, click Adress Book on the left top of the screen, click Prefferences and open the Accounts tab. You'll see a "Synchronize with Google" checkbox, click it, enter you mail and password and you are good to go.
    On iCal go to Preferences (top left, click iCal to see it), open the Accounts Tab, you'll see a blank list on the left, at the bottom of it there is a "+" sign, click on it and select Google on the Account Type dropdown list, enter your account details and you are done.
    Third way to do it is by using third party software such as SyncMate.
    Hope any of these alternatives solve your problem!
    (The iCal and Address Book instructions are for Snow Leopard, but it should be almost the same on Lion)

  • HT1386 I sync all songs, photos and videos between my computer and iPod classic with no problems, but when I get to sync info I get this message: "iTunes cannot sync Calendar and contacts to iPod. Try logging out of Windows adn then logging back in".

    I sync all songs, photos and videos between my computer and iPod classic with no problems, but when I get to sync info I get this message: "iTunes cannot sync Calendar and contacts to iPod. Try logging out of Windows adn then logging back in".  Could you please help?

    Correct. When you update via iTunes all synced media that is not in your iTunes library will be lost.
    As IO said before:
    You can redownload most iTunes pruchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    I do not think it included audio books.

  • IPhone 3G doesn't sync calendars and contacts via mobileme

    Hi.
    Since the initial setup, my new iPhone 3G doesn't sync up with MobileMe.
    After some trouble in the beginning MM works fine now between my Powerbook and my iMac but although my MM-settings on the iPhone are correct and set to sync calendars and contacts, it simply doesn't.
    I have tried everything on the iPhone:
    Push (nothing happens).
    Disconnecting push, using manual or automatic (15 min, 30 min, 1 hour).
    Deleting my MobileMe account on the phone, thus erasing all contacts and calendars, then retyping everything correctly (and getting no message to suggest otherwise).
    ITunes too tells me, that calendars and contacts are sync'ed through MM and I can't sync iCal and Contacts using the cable either.
    Also, when I open System/MobileMe/Synchronize/Advanced on either of my computers to see the list of devices connected to my MobileMe, it only shows my computers on that list - not the iPhone!
    Can anyone help me with this or do I just have to wait for Apple to realize that MM doesn't work on iPhone 3 (2.2) - which kind of defeats the whole purpose of getting it in the first place?
    Thanks,

    This is a list of registered computers with your MM account, not a list of registered devices. Your iPhone will not be shown in the list of registered computers, because it isn't a computer.
    I thought so, but wanted to mention it in case I was wrong.
    Have you tried turning Contacts and Calendars off for over the air syncing with your MM account preferences on your iPhone followed by turning both back on?
    I have tried everything I can think of, and that includes the above.
    When doing this, however, the phone prompts me to accept that all calendar events and contacts on the phone are erased in order to sync new information from MobileMe.
    I accept, but trouble is that no new info comes the other way, although the "spinning wheel" is running for ages.
    I can again say, that the iPhone has been set up to MobileMe using the correct password and addres.
    Neither Push, nor set intervals or manual sync have worked at any time.
    The only way, I can put my calendar and contacts onto it is by deleting the MobileMe account on the phone and syncing via USB

  • Can you sync calendar and contacts over the air to...

    I'm considering getting an E71 or E63, but apart from email I really want to be able to sync calendar (and contacts)over the air, not just from to/from Outlook on my PC - is this possible ? It's not really explained clearly in any of the specs and doco I've been reading.
    Also, if I receive a calendar invitation as email, will it appear on the Nokia and can I accept it, and is it written to the calendar locally and at the POP server, or is this kind of behaviour only supported by Windows Mobile devices?

    POP (post-office protocol) is only for email retrieval (and SMTP, simple message transfer protocol, for sending).
    If you want to sync calendar/contacts, then it is done over SyncML (synchronization markup language).
    Also "proprietary" synchronization protocols, like Microsoft's ActiveSync allows message/contacts/calendar/tasks synchronization.
    Nokia supports ActiveSync over-the-air through the Mail for Exchange software.

  • I am trying to sync calendar and contacts on the BB Z10, using iCloud. What is the server address?

    How Do I Get Rid Of The “Other” Data Stored On My iPad Or iPhone?
    http://tinyurl.com/85w6xwn
    With an iOS device, the “Other” space in iTunes is used to store things like documents, settings, caches, and a few other important items. If you sync lots of documents to apps like GoodReader, DropCopy, or anything else that reads external files, your storage use can skyrocket. With iOS 5/6/7, you can see exactly which applications are taking up the most space. Just head to Settings > General > Usage, and tap the button labeled Show All Apps. The storage section will show you the app and how much storage space it is taking up. Tap on the app name to get a description of the additional storage space being used by the app’s documents and data. You can remove the storage-hogging application and all of its data directly from this screen, or manually remove the data by opening the app. Some applications, especially those designed by Apple, will allow you to remove stored data by swiping from left to right on the item to reveal a Delete button.

    Responded to pop up to download iCloud.  Selected sync calender and contacts with Outlook during setup.  Now my contacts have disappeared from Outlook on my pc.  Any chance or recovering?

    Hi
    Thanks for your comment. Do you currently tether through your BB? I can get access to the internet to use my Outlook but when I try to sync by contacts and calendar, I am unable.
    Is your set-up similar?

  • Can only sync calendar and contacts...not music or audio books

    I have an itouch that I was only able to fully sync once. Then I could no longer sync music or audio books. I updated all software and then did a full restore on my itouch. Still no success. I have tried this on three different computers that I have used with (no problems) my older ipods but I cannot get this sync to work on any of them.
    When I sync, I get a message on the itouch that a "sync is in progress". However, no music or audiobooks are transferred. Only calendar and contact info is synced. I checked the itunes settings for the itouch and they are set to sync all songs and playlists.
    Spent several hours scouring troubleshooting hints to no avail. Please help!

    Are you sure you do not have your ipod set to manually manage music and videos on the ipod summary screen?

  • I downloaded the icloud software on my computer in order to sync calendars and contacts using Windows 2007, but I keep getting an error message when trying to sync my icloud and Outlook calenders - can anyone help with this?

    I downloaded the icloud software on my computer in order to sync calenders and contacts using Windows 2007, but I keep getting an error message when trying to sync my icloud and Outlook calendars.  I downloaded it for the first time a month ago and  had it working but it stopped syncing, so I deinstalled the iCloud software and reinstalled, but keep getting the error message "Your setup couldn't be started because of an unexpected error.  What do I do now?  Can anyone help with this?

  • Sync calendar and contacts between Outlook 2013 and iPhone 4

    I am trying to sync my calendars and contacts between Outlook 2013 (Office 365 Home Premium) and my iPhone 4 (iOS 7.0.4).  I have created a confusing mess for myself and do not recognize all of the calendars that appear in Outlook or the iPhone.  I
    abandoned the use of the iCloud because the iCloud calendar invitations my coworkers received in MS Outlook are too confusing to read.
    Is there a proven process for syncing when i add a new contact or calendar event in one device so that it shows up simultaneously in the other?  If the process is too laborious, is there an Outlook add-on?
    I have tried the Exchange ActiveSync but I can't get this to work smoothly.  I can't move recurring calendar events that started in the past.  Further, I have to navigate 2 separate data files in outlook to find the right calendar or inbox.
    I am not sure if Exchange and Exchange ActiveSync are the same or not.
    Additionally, this is a private domain address (my work email).

    Hi,
    Basically, Exchange ActiveSync and Exchange are two different sets of protocols, but both of them have the feature to sync contacts and calendars between different devices.
    If your company provides an Exchange account for you, just setup it in Outlook Client, it will sync the contacts and calendars between clients and the Server.
    If you have an Outlook.com(Hotmail) or any other email account that supports Exchange Activesync, just set it up in Outlook, the contacts and calendars will also sync.
    As for iPhone, just make sure it also uses the same protocol.
    If there's anything wrong with the account sync on PC, rename the current data file to ".old", let Outlook create a new one to sync, or we can create a new profile to setup the account:

  • Cannot Sync Calendar and Contacts

    I upgraded to Windows 7 but am still using Outlook 2003 as it is compatible with my office server for data storage. I am not sure when exactly but when I upgraded iPhone software to 4.3.2, I find that since Windows 7/Software 4.3.2, I cannot sync my calendar and contacts in Outlook 2003 with my iPhone. Old entries in my calendar are still there but the new entries do not show. I have even reduced my calendars to one single calendar. Worse, sometimes when I try to sync, it causes Outlook 2003 to hang and close. Can anyone help me? Thank you.

    its done in the info tab
    the most easy way is to get both OS X and ios to sync with icloud
    but otherwise you need to spc. a bit more then "having trouble" too little info
