What other phones can sync with my MacAir besides Iphone? (My Iphone 4S never syncs properly

I use my computer and phone for business so when updated information does not sync from computer to phone, it causes problems when traveling.  i.e. Address for appointment does not appear in iphone.  What other phone selections are there to sync with my MacAir?  Apple Store said I needed new OS on my MacAir but then they said I did not have enough memory.  I learned MacAir memory cannot be expanded.

For resetting the sync history on a Mac running Lion - 10.7.x if needed.

If you see the Sync menu in the menu bar, skip to step 3: 
If you do not see the Sync menu in your menu bar, skip to step 7.
Hold the Option key on your keyboard, then click the Sync menu in the menu bar:   
if you see the Sync menu but you are unable to open it, skip to step 8.
Choose Reset Sync Services.
Click Reset Sync History.
Test for the original issue. If the issue persists, or if you are unable to open the Sync menu, follow these steps:
In the Finder, choose Utilities from the Go menu.
Open Terminal.
In the Terminal window, type or paste the following command on a single line:
/System/Library/Frameworks/SyncServices.framework/Versions/A/Resources/resetsync .pl full
Press Return.
Quit Terminal after the operation has completed (when Terminal returns to the command prompt with a $).

    i cant connect to wifi but my laptop can and my other phones can.ived done all the recommendations in ipad support but still cant connect..what else shall i do?

    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

    what other keyboard is compatible with a HP NX9010?

    Thank you for your response, Much appreciated. 
    I recently reloaded windows XP, the laptop was working fine but now i am having a problem with the keyboard, it seems as if the number 6 key is jammed, but it is not, when the laptop is booting up, it beeps as if a key is held down, when windows starts up and you right click, it makes a continuous beeping noise like you pressing a key, when you open up a word or excel doc, the number 6 continously come on. i removed the number 6 key and cleans the circuit as i though it might be dirty but the 6 continues to come, even though nothing is touching the circuit. i though it could be software related because i reloaded but when i did a disk scan, the laptop started up, when it came to the scan, it automatcially got cancelled, this is because it is picking up the 6 key as pressed. Could this definately be the keyboard?

    You cannot. Your best course of action is to immediately change all your internet passwords, notify the police and your insurance company. Send the remote wipe command to the MBA through iCloud.com and buy a new one from the insurance reimbursement.

  • Other taking up space with a brand new iPhone

    other taking up space with a brand new iPhone, never used or plugged in. 1st time conecting and it says 564.8mb other. WTH??

    I'm sorry, I don't understand your comment. Any computer program has at least 2 divisions. A Code division and a Data division. When we talk about the size of a program or operating system we mean the size of the Code division. The Data division will be of variable size, and can change dynamically. So the size of iOS when you download it is the size of the code. Other includes the data division of iOS, plus the data divisions of all apps that come bundled with iOS, plus the Safari cache, plus all email messages, plus all texts, plus all contacts, plus all calender events, plus all notes, plus all reminders, plus the music catalog, plus album art, plus data used by the iTunes & App stores, plus data used by the Genius feature, pus data used by Game Center, plus data used by Apple Maps (but not Google maps if you have it), plus a few things I've probably forgotten about.
    Immediately after a new phone is activated, or after it is restored as new, Other still contains the data divisions of iOS. And if you have logged in to the iTunes and App stores during setup it contains the information from your account for those apps. And if you have logged in to iCloud it contains all of your iCloud contacts, calendar events, notes, reminders and email.
    I've explained this several different ways. I'm not going to try again.

  • World phone not syncing properly with Exchange on delete function

    Hi, we are testing BES right now and currently have about 5 Curves and 1 world phone. The Curves work great, but the world phone will not sync the deleted item with Exchange. In other words, when an email is deleted from the device and it has been told to remove from both the device and server, it is only removed from device. When an email is deleted from Outlook, that message is not removed from the world phone. we don't have this problem with the curves and we've also tried hard resetting the device, and also tried using several different user accounts. the same problem exists every time. any ideas? we are trying to determine whether or not we will switch from treo/goodlink to blackberry and this isn't helping the cause. thanks.

    i have validated that this is the case on all workd phones we are running. deleting from outlook doesn't delete from device and vice versa. not an issue with the curve however. what on earth is up with that? that is absolutely horrendous! good thing i didn't put one of these things in the ceo's hands. i'd probably be looking for a new job right now.

  • Have 9630 Tour. Which other phones will work with CDMA and GSM providers?

    Looking to replace my phone.  Having to carry another when traveling overseas is such a pain.  Love the fact that I can just pop another SIM in my 9630 and use is on a GSM network when I want.  Does anyone know what other models have this feature?
    I keep getting conflicting information.
    Thanks, in advance, for any assistance/advice offered...... 

    Hi nevercanstop and welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums!
    Any new BlackBerry smartphones released by CDMA proviers have this feature included. 2 others are the BlackBerry Bold 9650 and the BlackBerry Storm 2 .

  • Can family members added as part of the Family Share feature of iOS 8 really erase other family members devices with the Find My iPhone feature?

    I initiated a Chat session with Apple Support to see if this was really possible.  The answer I got was that it DID seem possible at this time.  If this is true, then Apple may want to look at giving the sharing device the option to disallow other family members from erasing that device remotely (or playing sound, entering lost mode).
    I would be comfortable allowing my wife to lock my iphone or erase it remotely if needed, but I would not want any of my kids to have that ability.
    Can somebody else confirm this could be done?

    Good day,

    Just tested this.  You have to enter the Apple ID Password for the device you are trying to remote erase.  You CAN put the device in lost mode without the password, but you cannot initiate a remote wipe without the password for the device.

  • What other things can the Note box in the Attributes panel be used for?

    ...if any? I'm aware that you can use it to record an action that selects certain objects. it just seems like it might be for other things too if only i could divine them from the ether.

    It's just a text field you can associate with a selection. Notes can be applied at the Object, Group, or Layer levels. Use it for whatever information you want. For example, working on an exploded parts diagram, one might choose to name objects (in the Layers palette) by their functional names (relay valve, clutch basket, etc.) and key their part numbers into the Note field. Or working on a die-cut layout, one might target the diecut Layer and key instructions into the note field.
    It's just another half-baked feature in Illustrator, half-heartedly duct-taped onto the program (like the poorly implemented Document Info grab-bag palette). A very lame version of object metadata features that other programs provide. For example, Canvas provides a tabular data feature in which you can store multiple columns of information about objects that have been illustrated.

  • HT1212 I bought a iphone 4s off ebay, the seller's daughter forgot to remove her password but did restore everything else. Its not synced with my itunes so I am not able to go that route. What other way can I restore this Iphone 4S.

    I purchased am Iphone 4S from ebay. Sellers daughter restored Iphone but didnt remove password. He sent me the password but after entering it a few times after I had already previous tried passwords before I reached him now I have reached the disabled screen and now have the correct password but am unabke to use it due to disabled screen. It is not synced with my Itunes so I am not able to go that route. If anyone else has any other suggestions please lead me.

    If you get locked out of your phone with an incorrect passcode, then the only way is to do a restore and for that you need to connect it to iTunes and that is it.  No other way to go.
