What is my best option for synchronizing tasks (to-dos)/calendars on my iPhone with an Apple Mac?

I currently have an iPhone 3GS (will upgrade to 5 when available) and Windows XP PC (soon to be retired!) and happily sync my to-do's/calendar between Appigo To-do/iphone Calendar on my iPhone and MS Outlook 2007 on my PC.
Looking ahead I want to buy a Mac of some kind but before I do so, I'd like to try and find answers to the following questions.
1.) What are my options for synchronizing tasks / calendar on my iPhone with an Apple Mac?
2.) Which is recommended as the best?
3.) Which options should I avoid?
Thanks in advance!
Mark

You have 2 options:
1)  Ensure in all cases "store email on the server" is set.  I suspect on one device it's not set.
2) (preferred IMO) On all devices, set option to bcc: yourself to true.  This way you always get all the emails and can file them via IMAP, and they'll be everywhere (with mail headers which preserves sent date.  "sent messages" often DOES NOT preserve the sent date)

  • What is the best option for tethering my IPhone 4s with my iPad? (the iPad is wifi only)

    What is the best option for tethering my IPhone 4s with my iPad? (the iPad is wifi only)

    #1. Understand that if you switch carriers, you can NOT take your existing iPhone with you. It won't work. You will need to purchase a new one.
    #2. Your only choices are Sprint and Verizon. Decide who has the better coverage in your area. Keep in mind that you will NOT be able to get simultaneous voice and 3G data on either of these, as their CDMA networks do not support it. The U.S. T-Mobile network is not supported and is not fully compatible with the iPhone as it operates on a rarely used frequency compared to the rest of the world.
    #3. What in the world are "niners"? Do you mean you want to be able to keep your existing "phone numbers"? If so, that should be no problem. Most numbers in the US are now portable.
    #4. Consider WHY you want to switch. If the issue is really price, you're not going to see much of a difference. A few dollars a month at best for comparable voice and data plans.

  • I have a Macbook pro Retina display, I have a small nick in my screen that is annoying especially when watching videos. What is my best option for fixing it?/does apple care apply?

    I have a Macbook pro Retina display, I have a small nick in my screen that is annoying especially when watching videos. What is my best option for fixing it?/does apple care apply?

    Did you cause the nick? Or did it just appear one day? There are reports of the retina screen having exploding pixels which leaves a hole in the screen that can be felt when you rub your finger across it. If that is what happened then it should be covered under the warranty. If you caused the nick then it is not covered and the fix will be very expensive, somewhere in the $1000 range.

    ical (the calendar program) that came with this apple mac pc suddenly stopped working. When I pulled the icon from the desktop, it then disappeared from the computer.I have been using it from the desktop for the past two years, without trouble. It has uninstalled itself, without my intervention and has eradicated all traces of it, including all my entries from the computer memory. There is no program in the applications list. Can you say why this may have happened please?

    I opened one of the .calendar folders. There was a folder named Events which had either one or some files ending .ics. I opened several of these, which put up a dialogue window showing some parameters with data strings attached as follows :-

  • CTS+ what is a best option for transport domain?

    Hello Experts,
    What is a best option to confugure CTS+ regarding the transport domains?
    Should it be simpe and single transport domain at SOLMAN system and all satellite systems assigned to this single transport domain OR should I keep existing transport domains for satellite systems and connect them via domain link with SOLMAN?
    Any  ideas please?
    Thanks!

    hI,
    Normally if you have non abap system in your landscape then you can have solman domain as both communication system and Transport domain, then maintain the TMS domain configuration in solman itself
    If you want to maintain ABAP separated system as communication system then this case you have to create the domain link between communication system transport domain and the solamn domain
    Chk this CHARM Configuration Problem
    Thanks,

  • What is the best method for synchronizing tables in two different DB?

    We have a core banking database and this database includes our customer related tables and these tables are really huge.
    And we have other database for some applications and this database needs fresh customer data which take place in core banking database.
    Our current method is materalized views but we have some performance problems about it.
    What can give better performace for synchronizing the tables between databases?
    -oracle streams?
    -triggers?
    -dbms_comparison?
    or anything else?
    Edited by: 983327 on Jan 28, 2013 2:14 PM

    Assuming that both databases are Oracle, both run relatively recent versions of Oracle, and your organization has administrative access to both systems ("core banking" databases are often run by third parties), Streams is a more efficient architecture than materialized views on the capture side (assuming that you are doing incremental refreshes with materialized views). It's more work to configure than materialized views but you get much greater flexibility and better performance.
    Oracle's direction is to move away from Streams and towards GoldenGate which requires additional licenses. Since Oracle does not plan on enhancing Streams moving forward, if this is a strategic decision for your organization, you might want to look at GoldenGate instead even if it doesn't offer any benefits today over Streams.

  • What's my best option for replacing iDisk in ICloud?

    What's my bet option for replacing IDisk in ICloud?

    I would also have a look at SugarSync (www.sugarsync.com), it provides the same services as Dropbox but is not restricted to having to place everything in the single folder to sync.
    You can select which folders to sync on your machine, it is much more flexible.
    You’re not limited to the desktop or web, either as there are SugarSync clients for iOS devices
    You can get a free account which gives you 5 GB of storage. Or you can get 30, 60, 100, or 250 GB of storage for between $4.99 and $24.99 a month.
    If you have a Google account have a look at Google Drive, it comes with 5GB of space as well and is free. You can share your documents with anyone and even work with others on a document.
    Also have a look at this article http://blogs.computerworld.com/18535/apple_icloud_replacing_idisk_iweb_and_galle ry which discusses exactly moving from iDisk to other services.

  • HT4623 my phone is giveing me error 21 since i updated it to ios7 it wont turn on it wont restore i have tried several times to restore the device but im really at a loss what is the best option for me ?

    hi, my iphone 5 has refused to restore after i updated it to ios7 ...... it will not turn on, it will not restore i do get an error 21 mesg and i have attempted a couple of fixes from the net, but nothing seems to work . i have no acces to my phone it just is dead whats my best option, do i need to send it to apple ?

    Hello Peter,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
    Error 21 is part of a range of error codes generally indicating that other software is interfering with the restore process.
    Check out the troubleshooting from this article named:
    iTunes: Specific update-and-restore error messages and advanced troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694#error21
    Error 20, 21, 23, 26, 28, 29, 34, 36, 37, 40
    These errors typically occur when security software interferes with the restore and update process. Use the steps to troubleshoot security software issues to resolve this issue. In rare cases, these errors may be a hardware issue. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.
    Also, check your hosts file to verify that it's not blocking iTunes from communicating with the update server. See the steps under the heading "Blocked by configuration (Mac OS X / Windows) > Rebuild network information > Mac OS X > The hosts file may also be blocking the iTunes Store." If you have software used to perform unauthorized modifications to the iOS device, uninstall this software prior to editing the hosts file to prevent that software from automatically modifying the hosts file again on restart.
    All the very best,
    Sterling

  • What is my best option for a family plan. We have 1 smartphone that uses very little data a usually wifi is avaiable and 3 basic phones. Currently we have 700 shared minutes and unlimited texting. And 30 data. I don't think he needs that much as wifi is e

    What is the best family plan option. Currently have one smart phone with 30gb of data and 3 basic phones. Also have home phone for $20/month. Current plan is 700 shared minutes and unlimited texting. My bill is close to $200/month, looking to lower if possible.

    On a tablet- pse forgive typos....
    Great Advice given earlier by SuzyQ   - I believe the question not asked of you is ---what do you want to pay for the services that you need.  I think that it would narrow the groups suggestions if you could narrow your needs.
    For example: I need talk and text on 4 phones and some data say, 2 Gig, on only one of the phones. what plan is the best cost for me? You may also need to ask what the cost may be to switch to a different plan. I suspect that there will be no cost within Verizon-but ask anyway.
    I do not think that you can have a smart phone on any Verizon plan unless you agree to buy data for that phone. Also, you said that wifi is often available-however, I do not believe that Verizon allows talking over wifi without consuming airtime minutes-only data over wifi avoids your allowance to be impacted.
    As most here already know, several other service providers offer wifi-friendly service (talk/text/data) that will provide  home/business/restaurant service without impacting your allowance- just not here.
    After getting some suggestions here, call 611 and confirm availibility and price.    
    Best of luck in your research.

  • What is the best option for 'update.... set' in owb?

    Hello.
    I have been reading on a number of ways to implement following query in OWB:
    update TABLE A
    set Value F = (select Value B
    from table B
    where (nvl(trim(A.valueC),trim(A.valueD) = trim(B.ValueF)
    and substr(A.valueG,1,2) = trim(B.valueH))
    or ( nvl(trim(A.valueC),trim(A.valueD)) is null
    and trim(B.valueF) is null
    and substr(A.valueG,1,2) = trim(B.ValueH)
    The table A and table B do not have a relationship.
    Key lookup - some of you recommend not to use it as it is not very good.
    Set Operator or Joiner? What would be better?
    I created a function for this query, but i cannot use it in the map because i get this error:
    API8003:coonection target attribute group is already conncted to an incompatable data source. Use a Joiner or Set operator to join the upstream data first before conncting it into this operator.
    What would be the best way to do it? how i can pass the parameters from two different tables into my function? What feature of OWB would be the best option i cannot use for this?
    Or my best bit to re-create it as a procedure and run it that way?
    Thank you very much for your help
    Kind Regards
    Vix

    Hopefully this is helpful and it makes sense written out.
    First, I'm not sure if there are some parenthesis missing in your update statement because I can't tell for sure whether the statements separated by the 'or' should be considered separately [ as in "(a = b and a=c) or (c = d)" vs "a = b and a = c or c = d" ] or if the logic is exactly as written. My suggestion is based on the idea that the query is exactly as written -- if parenthesis were missing, insert them as appropriate.
    My suggestion is to use a join. Even though you say A and B don't have a relationship, they sort of do based on the update statement.
    I would suggest that you start with source A and insert an expression operator. You'll send in ValueC, ValueD, ValueG. You create three outputs:
    BValueF = nvl(trim(A.valueC),trim(A.valueD))
    BValueH = substr(A.valueG,1,2)
    NullValue = nvl(trim(A.valueC),trim(A.valueD))
    Then add source table B and insert another expression operator. You'll send in ValueF and ValueH. You create two outputs:
    TValueF = trim(B.valueF)
    TValueH = trim(B.valueH)
    Then insert a join operator. For ingrp1, you'll drag over whatever can uniquely identify A and the three outputs from the expression. For ingrp2, drag over ValueB and the two outputs from the expression.
    Then your join condition will be
    BValueF = TValueF
    and BValueH = TValueH
    or NullValue is null
    and TValueF is null
    and BValueH = TValueH
    Then add your target table A, set it to update on the unique key. Drag the unique key from the joiner to the unique key on A, and drag ValueB to A's ValueF.
    Hopefully this makes sense written out. I didn't test this, but it looks logically correct on paper.
    Good luck,
    Heather

  • What is the best option for storing my iphoto library on the cloud?

    I was curious as to what people are doing (other than backing up to external HD) for backing up the iphoto library?  Anyone using any cloud solution out there for storage?  What are some of the best options?  I have around 30,000 photos in my iphoto library.

    There is no good solution for storing the Library in the Cloud. The amount of data involved means that uploading or downloading is very, very slow. We do see posts on here from people trying to restore from a back up to the Cloud wondering if it's possible to speed up the download currently estimated in days. Running a Library from the cloud is just painfully slow - people have tried it and that is the consensus.
    However, as part of a comprehensive back up plan there is a lot to be said for backing up your Photos to the cloud. Not as good as backing up the whole Library, but as a "last line" you at least have your photos. There are many options: Flickr, Picasa, SmugMug etc. However, check the terms of your account carefully. While most sites have free uploading, you will often find that these uploads are limited in terms of the file size or the bandwidth you can use per month. For access that allows you to upload full size pics with no restrictions you may need to pay.

  • What is the best option for working live off external hard drive?

    I have 3 iMacs all networked together and working off 1TB of files stored on an old MacPro. I'm wondering what my best option would be for upgrading moving forward. I need more space (preferable 2TB or more) and I'd like the connection to be as fast as possible. A server seems like overkill ...
    I have an external 3TB WD Cloud backing up all of the files, but it's far too slow to work off of live as it needs to 'wake up' every time I ping it.
    Would running a 'headless' Mini directly off my router work? Or perhaps attached to one of the iMacs?
    Other options?
    Thanks in advance

    Hi there,
    Ive always followed the idea that journalling is turned off, so I would follow the advice given and turn journalling off.
    In addition I would also make that drive "private" to spotlight so it doesn't search or catalogue there.
    If its of interest, I've always formatted my drives in the following way
    make 2 partitions,
    partition 1 - make this about 10% of the drives capacity and label DO NOT USE
    partition 2 - make this the remainder of the capacity
    the reason being (So Im told by the drive gurus) is that the first sector contains the volumes boot block - this can get corrupted/damaged so having it partitioned like this means you can erase it safely whilst keeping your media.
    Ive followed this for years and it has worked on the few occasions a drive has misbehaved.
    cheers
    Andy

  • What is the best option for my process

    Hi Gurus Can any one guide me which is the best available option for my business process.
    in our client process We have a Final Product(say A). and two Vendors (say Vendor1 and vendor2)
    This Final Product is made up of 3 other parts Lets say B,C and D.
    So The client buys Product B and Product C from the Vendor1 and Product D from Vendor2
    The vendor1 supplies the both the parts(A and B) to Vendor2.
    The Vendor2 Takes the Parts B, C and Joins with Part D and deliver the final product A to the client.
    There is no assembly cost for Vendor2- he charges for only part D.
    Can anyone tell which is the best available option for my client.
    Please help me ASAP
    Thanks

    Hi Amar,
    There are many other factors that you need to take into consideration to define best approach for the process.
    You have to know what type of control you want to have of the "production" of the product "A". Who is the owner of the components B and C while they are at vendor 2.
    Who is the payer and how are you going to receive invoices of vendor 1 (you receive invoices for components according to the quantity of product A you receive in your company, or you receive invoices for all B and C received at vendor 2??)
    Its no easy to give you a feedback without more information.

  • What's the best option for event generation from an Oracle database?

    Hi all,
    I need to interface from an oracle database into WLI (or elink if need be). The
    code that needs to call this interface is written in pl/sql in the database.
    What is the best way to enable the pl/sql to make a call to WLI?
    I know you can set up an event trigger on a table using the sample DBMS adapter
    so that it will send info to WLI via the events table in the database but this
    is what they call a pull event(i.e. the adapter is actually polling this table
    for whenever an event gets put into it I think).
    Has anyone ever done a push type event? (e.g. calling java code from pl/sql that
    sends event to WLI)
    Or anyone know whether the new JCA for Oracle Applications will help with this?
    I am using Oracle 8.1.7 so don't have any extras with Oracle Apps.
    thanks all
    adam

    Adam,
    I have not implemented an push event adapter with Oracle. However, I
    know the trend that seems to be happening in the industry and I can say
    I agree 100% with it's implementation. I am seeing vendors using
    Oracle's Advanced queuing features to push events out to other
    applications. One interface for AQ is PL/SQL using DBMS_AQ, DBMS_AQADM,
    and DBMS_AQELM packages, so you would not have to rewrite your current
    business logic. Although I have not done the leg work, logically, this
    would be the approach I would take if tasked to implement an Oracle
    event adapter.
    For more information register (free) for an account on Oracle Technology
    Network (OTN), then go to the following URL:
    http://otn.oracle.com/docs/products/oracle9i/doc_library/release2/appdev.920/a96587/toc.htm
    Note: (the url goes to Oracle9i, as I couldn't find the link to 8i, but
    8i AQ in will work just as well)
    Cheers,
    Chris
