Why can't I continue to sync my private info (contacts, calendars, reminders) from my computer to my phone?

I am insanely frustrated. I have had iPhone since its inception. The most basic and fundamental feature syncing a computer and iPhone is the ability to transfer information between the two.  I do not want my most private information, such as everyone I know and everywhere I go and everything I do, to be uploaded to Apple server.  I believe the right to privacy is very real and needs to be protected.  Why has Apple removed the ability to sync your private info and keep it on your own personal devices.  I have been able to do this for six years!

You may be rightfully frustrated but you're still ranting. Your issue is not a technical support question anyone here can help you with. The apporpriate place for you to let Apple know how you feel is the Feedback page:

  • Why can't Adobe continue to support and create updates.....

    Why can't Adobe continue to support and create updates for MAC G5 OS X Tiger?
    I'm sure I'm not the ONLY owner and operator of this MAC machine. I'm finding it
    VERY frustrating how your comany, JAVA and Apple of just written this machine off.
    You know, MAYBE I'd be more understanding if this MAC product or ALL MAC
    products weren't so reliable. However, like many MAC users out there
    there's NOTHING wrong with my machine or my current programs OTHER than the
    simple fact I can no longer update Flash player or Java... all because
    my machine is no longer supported.
    WHY can't updates continue to be made? This way,ALL consumers are happy:
    those who feel it wasteful economically and ecologically to
    replace a computer with a NEW computer, and those who just like to have the latest
    and greatest tech toys.

    You can - click on the "Actions" link at bottom left of the post.
    As to the rest - nobody seems to like this forum, and what you're saying has been said on numerous occasions already.
    It's Adobe's fault for "buying in" this forum (sorry - "Social Business"  ) service, but it's Jive's fault for producing such a crappy solution in the first place.

  • Why can't my Safari bookmarks sync properly?

    Every day for about a week or so now I get an error whenever I launch Safari. It keeps telling me that I need to replace my bookmarks on MobileMe and to "fix now" or upload them from another computer. I don't have them on another computer, they're on my iPhone. But just to get it to STFU I did in fact "correct" the problem by replacing them from my computer several times. I've also turned off syncing on my iPhone and sync'd it with iTunes, replaced them from my computer to MobileMe and turned it back on the iPhone and replaced them from MobileMe again.
    It doesn't seem to matter what I do, or how many times I replace the bookmarks, it just keeps asking me every time I launch Safari. Now I don't want to bookmark anything on my computer because I have new bookmarks on my iPhone and I can't get them to sync back.
    What in the heck is going on?
    p.s. I'm very Mac saavy and have tried everything I know to do like clearing caches, repairing permissions, bla bla bla. No help at all.

    Follow the instructions for MobileMe: Resetting Sync Data

  • Why can't I set a second alert on my iPad calendar app?

    Why can't I set a second alert on my iPad calendar app? I can set two alerts per event on the iPhone version, but the iPad version doesn't show the option that pops up after entering a first alert on the iPhone.

    You are talking about the forward, back, mail and trash can icons in the Notes App - correct?
    I've gone through restarting it and followed the instructions from the person last week.
    Have you restarted the iPad - is that what you mean? Have you quit and then restarted the app? Quit the app, and restart the iPad. It's worth a try.
    Double tap the home button and your recent apps will appear at the bottom. Hold down on the Notes app icon until it begins to wiggle. Then tap the minus sign to quit the app. Then tap the screen. Now restart the iPad.
    Carolyn explained this above (restart) but here it is again....
    Hold down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and slide to shut off. Hold down on the sleep button until the Apple logos appears then let go of the button and the iPad will restart. See if that helps.

  • Why can't I set up my AirPort Extreme as a wireless jumper from my Cable internet router ?

    Why can't I set up my AirPort Extreme as a wireless jumper from my Cable internet router ?

    If it "joined" my network is it extending the coverage of my wifi network ?
    Please review my previous answer in the post above......
    But, the Express does not  "extend" or "repeat" the wireless signal when it joins a network.  In other words, wireless devices cannot connect to the AirPort Express the way that you have it set up.
    If so can my Airport Extreme be set up to "join" my network and also extend the coverage of my network ?
    Again, please review my previous answer in the first reply above......
    The AirPort Extreme does not have this type of capability.
    If you have both an AirPort Extreme and an AirPort Express.....my suggestion....again, found above in a previous post.....
    It takes a minimum of two Apple routers to extend a signal using wireless.
    You could do this by connecting the AirPort Extreme to your cable router using a permanently installed Ethernet cable and then configuring the AirPort Extreme to "create a wireless network".
    Then add an AirPort Express in a location where it can pick up a strong wireless signal from the AirPort Extreme and configure the Express to "extend a wireless network".
    You would not use the wireless on your cable router at all, unless you wanted to reserve that network for guests or something similar.

    Good luck Friend.
    That's not going to help.  That article is for moving photos from iOS device to computer, not for removing them.  Additionally, photos synced via iTunes cannot be manually removed from the device.  You have to use iTunes to 'unsync' them, as FoxFifth stated.
    Camera Roll pictures are the only ones that can be imported from device to computer.  Album folders cannot be moved from device to computer.

  • My Mac and blackberry cant sync to my Now Contact calendar

    can anyone help me figure out how to sync to my Now Contact calendar using Desktop Manager?

    Think you will need to upgrade to Now X, then it will sync, as Now X uses Apple's Sync Services and so does BlackBerry Desktop Manager for Mac.

    Hi lexipuppy,
    I dont know if you have your music on your other computer was on itunes, but if it was, make sure that you signed into your itunes account on your other computer. If you are signed in then your music should show up in your library.

  • Hi everyone when i am putting music from my computer to my phone every song saves under a seperate album on my phone.. how can i fix this?

    hi everyone when i am putting music from my computer to my phone every song saves under a seperate album on my phone.. how can i fix this?

    - go on iTunes
    - click album view on music
    Are there more than one albums there?
    - ctrl+click each individual album that has been separated
    - right click the album in question with them selected
    - album info
    - update every field to reflect the same except the song title
    --genre and album should reflect the same. Sometimes they separate too
    - hit ok
    If the same on iTunes but not the iPhone
    - remove all songs and videos
    - add them again to replace the defected albums
