Why does Apple not support syncing Entourage Notes and Tasks with the iPhone?

I'd like to know why Apply syncing does not support notes and task syncing with the iPhone.  It used to when I had a Balckberry and used a third party sync app.
I bought the iPhone (4S) thinking that syncing would be smoother and have less problems than I was having with the Blackberry and third party sync software.  Are there any plans to support this?

Normally I run OS X, but on a whim I tested iCloud on Windows and was able to get Outlook to read and create Notes. It supposedly supports Tasks too, but I can't figure out how to use Outlook.
I suggest reposting your question to the iCloud for PC forum: https://discussions.apple.com/community/icloud/icloud_on_my_pc
or the iCloud for iOS forum: https://discussions.apple.com/community/icloud/icloud_on_my_ios_device

  • Is it possible to sync Outlook To Do tasks with the iPhone?

    Hi,
    I'd appreciate any comments..
    I have been used to synching my old mobile with Outlook (contacts, to do tasks and notes). Am I able to synch my Outlook to do tasks with my iPhone?
    Thanks.

    No, that is not currently possible.

  • Why does apple only support mp4 videos?

    It's not really a problem, i usually use my friends computers to convert my videos since mine is so slow.
    But why does apple only support MP4 and MOV formats? Why not MPEG or DivX?
    I know they cannot use WMV because it is a Microsoft format.
    It's just sometimes when i convert videos, the audio becomes out of sync or iTunes complains it's not playable on my iPod.
    I would just like to know why?
    Thanks for your time.

    If Apple chooses to go with H.264 or MP4 or whatever else they want to support, maybe it would be real nice if iTunes could automatically convert to those formats. So if I dropped my universally standard (and supported by most DVD players) DivX video clip in the library, iTunes would convert and format the video to an iPod friendly format.
    So, let me see if I understand this correctly. You want Apple to pirate proprietary codecs from DivX and build them into iTunes QT access. Tell me, does this mean that Apple is working as your agent and you will be the one spending time behind bars or paying the fines. Or, are you saying that Apple should act as an agent for DivX and charge you for a version of iTunes with legal codecs installed. How about Windows Media? Want to double the cost? What about Real? Or maybe Apple should have different versions of iTunes -- one for you and one for the guy who lives next door who uses old Indeo files?
    I have tried several 3rd party converters and they all suck.
    Perhaps you should be more selective in choosing a converter or invest in a commercial product which is supported by the people selling it.

  • I go to sync my phone and it says,"The iphone could not be synced because this computer is no longer authorized for purchased items that are on this iphone". When I go to authorize it says it's already authorized.

    Getting frustarted with itunes. I had to recently do a hard reboot ny iphone and attempted to sync my phone to get m apps back. When I go to sync my phone and it says,"The iphone could not be synced because this computer is no longer authorized for purchased items that are on this iphone". When I go to authorize it says it's already authorized. Help!!!!

    I first called apple and they patched me to a technician who ran a test and determined that I had a virus. He gave me some price quotes and who to call. After my conversation with him, which I knew was BS btw, I immediatley called Geek Squad with whom my computer has a warranty through after they installed virus software on my new laptop (4 months old). I had a VERY long online session where they ran several virus test and found nothing. Although I was VERY happy that my computer didn't have a virus, I still had the problem of my itunes not working. After several hours, he made sure that all of my apps were down loaded, and then restored my iphone to factory settings, and sync my device. It worked perfectly and all and I mean ALL 240 apps were downloaded back onto my iphone along with my music and all of my tones. When asked why my itunes was acting in that manner the answer that I got was,"...apparently you had a correct file some where in itunes and everything had to be reset". Regardless, everything is back to normal and I don't have to get a new phone or delete itunes from my computer. Hope this helps!

  • Why does Apple iPad Camera Connection Kit no longer work with iOS8

    Why does Apple iPad Camera Connection Kit no longer work with iOS8?

    The kit is firmly inserted in thhe iPad's dock ? You could also try a reset and see if it's recognised after the iPad has restarted : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
    I haven't had problems using the kit with SD cards from Canon cameras . What capacity is the card, and it's an SD or SDHC card - if it's an SDXC card that's formatted as ExFAT then it won't be recognised

  • BlackBerry Link and syncing Contacts, Calendar and Tasks with stand-alon​e desktop installati​on of Outlook 2010?

    I have used Blackberries in business since the beginning. Fantastic products!
    Sadly after spending the better part of Feb 6th transitioning from Torch to Z10 I have had to abandon the effort and request an RMA number to return the Z10.
    Here is why:
    "Link" appears to be focussed on syncing documents and media like content such as music and movies but does not, from what I can tell, sync Outlook Contacts, Calendar entries or Tasks. I have never bothered putting music or movies on a BB... never had the time to fuss with such... however, I use, edit and sync my Contacts, Calendar and Tasks between my Torch and my desktop PC every day... as in EVERY day!
    From a review of postings on various forums there does not appear to be a solution in the works to this problem and the trend appears to be to use a Cloud based email or service to host such "PIM" information and then sync the handheld to the Cloud repository. This method MAY be suitable for some forms of info but it is not suitable to post such personal info on the cloud... it needs to stay on the desktop and in the handheld device, both of which are password protected and looked after carefully.
    This is an odd situation, BB (RIM) cut their teeth on pages, emails, BBM and great cell calls, mainly in a business environment. Many small business users live and die on their BB. They do not run Exchange Server... they run Outlook stand alone on a desktop. To remove this functionality from the Z10 (BB10 overall perhaps) seems at best to be a serious oversight.
    I wish BB the best with the Z10 and hope to see it do well. For me, I had to make a choice between the efficiency and effectiveness of syncing Outlook Contacts, Calendar and Tasks with the Torch, or hand feeding and maintaining thousands of constantly changing entries into what is undoubtedly a more powerful and wonderful looking Z10. Efficiency and effectiveness won over brawn and beauty. The Torch is back on line... It's a tool... a really great tool! Tomorrow it will process a hundred emails,  numerous SMS messages, a few BBM's, keep me on time and feed me a bunch of useful phone numbers and addresses as it has for a couple of years now. It will also spend an hour or so teathered to my laptop at a remote location where there is cell coverage but no internet. It will NOT display any movies, tweats, twits, or facebook stuff that I won't have time to look at anyway. The fast, powerful, shiny Z10 is heading in an RMA bag back to Telus. 
    I have a sort of sick feeling in my gut and hope to be able to sync again in the future!

    my feelings and my situation excatly

        Hi there T&P63385!
    Look no further! I have the answer for you! You can add a new email account to your android device by following these steps: http://support.verizonwireless.com/clc/devices/knowledge_base.html?id=31401
    Now I do want to let you know that your phone has a "main" gmail account. If this "main" gmail account was the one you deleted it may be best that you reset your phone and activate it to your new gmail address.
    The reason I recommend doing this is all of your purchased application information is also tied to your gmail.
    Ensure your personal information is backed up (contacts, pictures, etc) and follow these steps to Hard Reset your phone:http://support.verizonwireless.com/clc/devices/knowledge_base.html?id=31308
    Let me know if you have any other questions!
    Thanks,

  • How do I sync my calendar and contacts with the calendar and contacts on my phone? My laptop is Mac OS X, 10.6.8 and still has MobileMe on it.

    My MacBook Pro is a few years old and I recently got an iPhone 4S. I want to know how I sync my calendar and contacts with the calendar and contacts on my phone? My laptop is Mac OS X, 10.6.8 and still has MobileMe on it. I tried to download iCloud but then I'd have to download and pay for a new OS.
    If anyone could help me with this that would be great.

    Hello Fiona,
    Congratulations on your new iPhone!  You can sync information to your iPhone from your MacBook Pro using the Info tab in iTunes when your iPhone is connected.  Use the steps in the following article:

    does anyone know how to delete songs that came with the iPhone 6 in the music?? i tried deleting them from iTunes but i couldn't.

    I know you already solved this but for future reference, there is also another setting to only keep songs downloaded to your device visible in music.
    Go to Settings --> Music --> Show All Music and make sure it is turned off

    Upgrade to 10.7.5. See:
    Upgrading to Lion
    If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mountain Lion, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
    You can purchase Lion by contacting Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax.  It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
         Lion System Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
               or Xeon processor
           2. 2GB of memory
           3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
           4. 7GB of available space
           5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.

  • HT202157 Why does Apple TV say Netflix is not available when I can watch it on my computer?

    I have reset my Apple tv to factory defaults, but it did not ask me to activate it again.
    For the last two days everytime i try watch a Netflix movie is says Netflix is not availble please try again latter.
    I have also power cycled my apple tiv by leaving it unplugged five minutes and upgraded the software.
    I was using it with no problem and am not aware of anything I did to hurt the configuraton.
    Again I have reset and restarted and power cycled several times.
    Not sure why it did not ask me to activate it again.
    I can also watch trailers and get to the sign in page on other channels.
    This is the first Apple product I have ever bought because I don't like the fact everything they have is propriatary.
    I work in IT and there is a good reason why you don't see Apple servers in datacenters.
    Maybe at an art department in a marketing company at the most.

    I understand that point. They are mostly bought from iTunes. But, I can watch on my laptop, iPad, iPhone on an airplane or wherever without an Internet connection. So why the hang up on my apple tv, should it not just be an extension of my laptop?

  • WHY DOES APPLE WORKS 6.2.9 NOT WORK?

    I installed the original Apple Works 6.2 in my computer.
    Now I want to update, but the updater that I've found on the Apple website just doesn't work.
    Everytime I try to use it, I get this message: THE DEFAULT LOCATION REQUIRED FOR THIS INSTALL COULD NOT BE FOUND. THIS INSTALL WILL BE CANCELLED.
    What can I do? I need the new version, because I have an important Apple Works document that was created with it, and it won't open with the old version that I have.

    Hello
    It seems that you are trying to apply the wrong updater.
    You must take care that there are two english AppleWorks 6, the US (continental) one and the International english one.
    The updater must match the application version.
    The best formula is to download the updater from this link:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=120213
    which give the ability to select the needed updater.
    If you are not sure of which version you are using, run this short AppleScript while the app is running:
    set version to version of application "AppleWorks 6" as string
    display dialog "You are using AppleWorks " & version
    with the US continental version it will display:
    "You are using AppleWorks 6.2"
    with the International version it will display:
    "You are using AppleWorks Z-6.2"

  • Why does apple phone support suck when a simple coreaudiod problem should be a simple answer?

    I have a problem with a 4 month old iMac that has a problem with coreaudiod.  When coreaudiod is in the correct directory the computer is unuseable so I called Apple support.  Once I explained they told me that I would have to pay #35 for support to get help.  I didn't just call first thing I tried as many solutions that I found on the web and nothing has worked.  Currently I use the iMac with coreaudiod moved so I can acutally use the machine but of course I have no audio or video at all.  I would understand if it was older than a year or more but this machine is still brand new and shouldn't have this problem and I should just be given the help needed.  It looks like the only option I have is to return it to where I bought it and get a refund which is of course a massive pain.
    I will attempt to resolve for a short time more but it doesn't look good for this computer.  This is my fifth Mac and the first time I have had a serious problem so have not had the issue of a lack of support.
    If anyone can add anything to help resolving this I would appreciate it but even that won't help my thoughts on apple support.

    Greetings,
    If the issue was occuring the first day you owned your computer then that is worth noting.  However if it started over time that means that something added to / done to the computer modified the Mac OS.  It is worth thinking about what may have led to the issue as if you got a new computer and install / do the same thing again it may cause the issue again.
    Coreaudio is integral to OS X.  If it is not functioning then reinstalling the OS would be the first step: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.7/en/mchlp1599.html
    If that does not resolve the issue then an Erase and Install will remove whatever changes were made and take your system back to the way Apple made it (and working): http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.7/en/mh27903.html
    As you've owned 5 macs and are an experienced computer user I'm sure you keep backups but for anyone else who might read this post, make sure you have backups of your data before you reinstall your OS or erase your system: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1553
    Once you've completed your erase, only migrate your User accounts back, not the entire system, otherwise you'll get the same issue back again: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4889
    Cheers.
