What's Up With Notes Sync'ing?

Hi,
I just upgraded to iPhone 4S and switched from MobileMe to iCloud. I knew I was losing some features, but since the System Preferences…>iCloud pane (in Mac OS X 10.7.3) shows "Mail & Notes" (which I checked), I figured that notes will continue to sync. Except they do not. And, unlike the MobileMe PrefPane, there is no "Sync now" button to force synchronization. So, the notes on my iPhone and on my MBP are now out of sync. Then I thought to check on icloud.com… and find no way to access Notes there.
So, are Notes supposed to be sync'ed or not?? Does anyone else have this problem? (I suspect I can connect the iPhone to iTunes, and force the transfer of info, but that would not merge them and I'm likely going to lose something...)
Thanks, Tristan

PS: I just forced sync'ing notes via iTunes (while the iPhone is connected, selected the iPhone in the iTunes side-bar, then the "Info" tab, checked "Other > "Sync notes", and then clicked "Apply", which re-started the sync'ing process). That prompted a merge-conflict dialogue box to pop up on my Mac, where I could select the note to keep/replace one by one. So, at least, my notes are now sync'ed.
The question remains: does this not happen via iCloud? Or, is there a setting I failed to set/check?

Touchsmart IQ810 Calendar not sync'ing with Vista Calendar

Noticed that my Touchsmart calendar is not sync'ing with the Vista calendar events. Read the calendar threads here but they are all referring to the 500 series from what I can see.
Far as I am aware my Touchsmart software is uptodate. Rather the HP Advisor and it is not downloading anything new.
Would appreciate any suggestions.
Thanks.

i wouldn't rely on the hp advisor alone, why not download the calender update yourself and install it on your pc.
you can download it from this link, I'm assuming you have the iq810uk

There are a few twists here. This is my opinion of a quick and easy way to do what you want to do.
Get a 2.5" sata enclosure like this one - this is just a sample:
http://www.amazon.ca/eForCity-2-5-inch-SATA-Enclosure-Blue/dp/B0083OOV9G/ref=sr_ 1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1360012807&sr=8-1
Put the new ssd in the enclosure, connect it to the Mac using the included USB cable. It is now an external drive.
Format the drive using Disk Utility.
Download and run Carbon Copy cloner, and clone your drive to the new external.
Shutdown. Open the MBP and remove the SSD drive from the enclosure and put it in the place of the old drive.
Boot the MBP. Once you know the new drive is up and running, you can get to the process of installing the old one in the optical bay.

New Photos not sync'ing to iTunes

I think this happened before... I noticed that the Photos on Mac is changed. Though I don't really like the interface, I am trying to get used to it... however, once again, the photos are not sync'ing properly to iTunes... I need help... For example: there are more number of photos on my laptop after importing from my phone... Then I grouped them into different Events. However, I am not seeing these being sync back into my phone via the iTunes.
I happened before, and for some reasons, it get fixed by itself. DO you acknowledge these is a problem?

HI,
Maybe try it this way this is what I did with mine because I did not migrate and didn't know about that either.
and really have the sidebar so because it will help you get the pictures organized
Photos application for Mac Instructions that might help!
On your iPad,iPhone keep the iCloud on in settings for Photos.
if you have not opened the New Photos application yet to have it transfer your photos from iPhoto let it Transfer the Pictures.
once you have all the pictures from iPhoto to Photos then in Photos go to Preferences
there is general and iCloud tab and go to the iCloud and only uncheck the iCloud button that will make it so it doesn't sync with your iPhone and iPad for Photos.
Then in Photos go up to View and press show sidebar because with that view you can move your pictures easier to albums snd delete or move any pictures or make new albums
For Duplicates if you have a big pile in a row and I mean not like every other picture of the same pictures on the keyboard Hold down the shift button. or the other way is to Hold down the Command buttom that is right by the space bar then on the trackpad or mouse click once on the picture you want to delete and do a bunch at a time then on the last picture of that pile either right click the picture and delete or go up to the edit button which is next to file on the top left and click delete in edit.
when you are all done with moving around your pictures or whatever go back to Preferences and turn on iCloud and make sure you have the optimize Mac Storage and then you are done! I hope this makes sense and works for you! here are the 2 pictures I'm talking about in settings.

Contact changes not sync'ing

contact changes made to laptop not sync'ing and showing up on IPhone

I have a iphone 4 with 2400 contacts on iCloud, I really like the contact management and use with great satisfaction.
I use a computer at work windows 7 and outlook 2010, I installed the panel icloud to sync contacts with iCloud.
Here's the problem:
When I insert / edit / delete a contact on iphone / icloud, the change is propagated in Outlook.
if i insert / edit / delete a contact in Outlook, the change is propagated NOT on iphone / icloud.
I have made several attempts and tests.
disconnected from the icloud control panel, logout / login, checks on plugin outlook add-ons, no positive results!
is a known problem?
is a known bug in the system?
Any idea?
thanks
Francesco

Contacts and Calendar not sync'ing with Outlook 2010

All was fine today until (maybe coincidental - maybe not) I had a Microsoft Exchange email account added to my Outlook 2010. I have an iPhone 4, and I usually sync daily, especially when calendar or contact changes take place. I am currently not using the icloud, so all contacts and calendar events would be way too outdated.
I have checked my Outlook settings under "info" and cannot get my contacts and address to load. I even see the "Contacts syncing"..."calendar sync'ing" when the overall iTunes sync takes place with my iPhone.
Help!!

Yes, it is. Do you have Desktop Manager v6?

Centro not sync-ing to Win XP Home with SP3

My brand new Palm Centro failed to sync to Palm Desktop running on Windows XP Home with Service Pack 3. The Palm "getting started" help desk (very polite, and free) told me I could go back to Service Pack 2, or upgrade to Vista. There's some kind of incompatibilty between SP3 and current HotSync Manager. I'll buy a Mac before I go to Vista, and rolling back is unattractive. Anyone know of another work-around?
Post relates to: Centro (Verizon)
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Like WyreNut, I have two XP desktops with SP3 installed. One desktop has PD 4.2 installed, and I have had no Hotsync issues with my TXes.
But the second desktop has PD 6.2.2 installed which I use with my Centro. I do not sync routinely (I don't really use the desktop for any contacts or calendar, and I backup daily with NVBackup to a SD card). And, since downloading SP3 on this desktop I have not run a Hotsync, until today.
I plugged the Centro in, and pressed the Hotsync button on the cable connector, and absolutely nothing happened. Several times. The LED glows red indicating that the cable connection is OK. But the Hotsync button refused to initiate a Hotsync. So on the Centro, I went into the System category, and opened the Hotsync application, tapped the Hotsync icon in the middle of the screen to initiate a Hotsync directly from the Centro. Hotsync proceeded normally, though it took forever because I had not done a Hotsync since early September.
After that Hotsync completed and Hotsync Manager shut down, I pressed the Hotsync button on the connector again, and as the seasonal poem goes (with apologies to Clement Clarke Moore):
When what to my wondering eyes should appear,
but the Hotsync Manager's progress bar so dear.
I don't understand much about Windows, but maybe the Hotsync Manager just needed a jump start after installing SP3. Anyway, it's working fine now.

Mavericks Mail not sync'ing IMAP act. (Not GMail)

I have been waiting silently to see if a fix would come on its own, but none yet. Ever since upgrading to Mavericks, Mail.app does NOT sync my IMAP accounts correctly. I have gone so far as to remove and re-add the accounts numerous times... no change. The recent "update" that was supposed to address Gmail issues had no affect on my sync'ing issues either. As others have posted, I basically have to quit and re-launch mail for it to correctly show what is on the mail server. All of my iDevices are working just fine - I can read or move an email, and all my iDevices show it correctly... but when I return to my Mac - some show as unread - some messages that I moved or deleted are still THERE (unread), etc.
Once I quit and relaunch, the inbox displays correctly - but there is no way (that I can find) to force the inbox to "refresh" correctly while the app is open. "Getting new" messages does nothing to help. Has anyone found a solution or work-around...? or is this just a "sit back and wait for Apple to fix" kind of problem...?
Thanks,
SF

I have the same problem. The recent Mavericks update fixed the original Gmail problem (of not being able to get rid of mail from the in box), but this problem is there and very frustrating. Exactly the same as the original post - Mail on my Mac does not reflect the emails filed, moved, deleted etc from my iPad or iPhone. Gmail, iPad and iPhone are all in perfect sync, but the Mac is not.
The only way to force the Mac into line is to QUIT Mail and relaunch.
(By the way, I don't have any anti-virus on my machine, so it's nothing to do with that - its a Mavericks issue).
I have been looking at alternative mail clients as I have now lost all faith in Apple Mail. (I am committed to IMAP and Gmail, on 3 different email accounts).
Yersterday I tried Outlook (as I happen to have a copy with Office-2011 for Mac). I liked it apart from the fact that it won't work with iCloud contacts... so its no good for me.
I'm looking at Mailplane now.... doesn't seem to be available via App store, but I'm going to try a free 15 day trial I found online. I'd say that's how long Apple has to fix this problem as far as I'm concerned.

What elements does Itunes not sync

I have a phone which was not attached to my PC.
I would like to attach it to my PC now but I would like to know what will be lost.
I.E. will I be able to keep the text messages that have been stored on it?
Rob

You need to install the latest iTunes on your PC, then Authorize it to the same iTunes account you have on your phone.
Connect the phone, wait for it to be recognized, but do not sync. Choose "Transfer Purchases" from the File menu to move your music and apps to the PC.
Click on the phone in the left panel of iTunes, then the Info tab in the right panel. Choose apps to sync Contacts and Calendar. BE SURE THERE IS AT LEAST ONE ENTRY in the apps you have chosen on the PC.
Right click on the iPhone in the left panel and choose Backup. This will preserve your contacts, calendar, text messages, photos in your Camera Roll and settings. Not music or apps, but those should have been copied with Transfer Purchases.
Sync the pbone.

Notes not sync'ing

After I upgraded to Snow Leopard from Tiger, my notes appeared in my mail inboxes. I fixe that with the switch in preferences.
Now, only the three new notes I've created on the iPhone appear there. The old ones, which appear in Mail under Reminders/Notes, do not sync to the iPhone. Any ideas how to remedy this?

Well, something isn't right, then. Have you checked the settings on the Mac?
This is what you should be seeing on your Settings>Notes screen:
Try turning Notes off and on again in iCloud - off on devices, off on Mac, on on Mac, on on devices.
Or, you may need to delete your iCloud account from your Phone and iPad, sign off of iCloud on your Mac, sign back on to iCloud on your Mac, and then sign back onto iCloud on your devices.

ATV not Sync'ing Photos

I have an ATV and I have been able to sync my music, movies and TV Shows with my iTunes on my PC. The photos also sync with my iTouch and iPhone but will not sync with my ATV. Any suggestions?

They all are .jpg's and are stored in My Pictures folder on my PC's HD. I have created the following hierarchy within My Pictures: My Pictures -> Year -> Month and then I have all the pictures for that month. I don't believe that any tags have been added to them that would cause any issues because they sync fine with my iTouch and iPhone. When I sync with my ATV and iTunes, iTunes just sits there for as long as I will let it trying to sync my photos with my ATV.

Playcount and other Stats Not Sync'ing up between ITunes and Nano

Anyone know why the playcount and other stats won't sync up between an Ipod Nano and ITunes?
I am trying to get my wife's ipod set up on our shared computer. Using Windows XP, I've created seperate user accounts with seperate libraries both using the latest version of ITunes and things have worked great so far. Songs have transferred, audible works. Yet for some reason the playcount info isn't updating and it is one of the things she really wants to work.
Any thoughts?
PC Windows XP 2 IPods 1 Computer using the seperate user profiles trick.

If you are using manual updating rather than one of the automatic updating preferences, playcounts are not synced back to iTunes from the iPod.
