Why does iCal no longer sync with BusyCal (and vice/versa)?

My Calender application is BusyCal. I have Mac OS X 10.8.2. BusyCal is version 2.0.1. Until recently, when I entered something in BusyCal, the same information appeared in iCal. When I entered something on my iPhone in iCal, the same information appeared in BusyCal on my iMac. - Everything was perfect.
This is no longer the case. I asked the BusyCal developpers. Here what they replied:
"I'm sorry, but Apple deprecated Mac OS X Sync Services in 10.8, there is nothing BusyMac can do to work around this (in either 1.6 or 2.0)"
Who can help? - Thanks!

Fortunately I have found a solution and resolved the problem: i learned how to sync via iCloud:
in iBooks i found the e-book "Take Control of Calender Syncing and Sharing With BusyCal".
I followed the easy written instructions step by step. Now, with iCloud, BusyCal syncs again with iCal (Calender)! And the Calender information on my Calenders on my iPhone and my iPad are both up to date.
I am happy and thank you all!

Why does iTunes no longer sync all of my songs? It only syncs 125/600, despite plenty of room on my iPod Touch

Yes I've done a reset but it made no difference.

Why does my IPad not sync with my IPhone for Ibooks bookmarks?

Why does my IPad not sync with my IPhone for IBooks bookmarks? Both Pad and Phone have sync turned on.

I must apologize as I misread your post. I though that you were talking about Safari bookmarks but you post does clearly state iBooks bookmarks.
You may want to just try restarting both devices and see if that helps. One other thing that you could try is quit iBooks on both devices and then launch it again and see if the bookmarks are synced when you relaunch.

Ical no longer syncs with isync or .mac

Ical on my PowerBook G4 no longer syncs with .mac or via isync. When I open ical, none of the events on the calendars display. After moving between "month" and "week" I can get the events to display. When I sync, I receive a window saying " Can't synchronize calendars and To Do items to iCal: device is not available." This is not the same as the message normally received when an external device such as an ipod is not connected. Bookmarks and Address Book are synchronizing without problem. Anybody out there experienced something similar? I have tried throwing away the ical preferences .plist from the library but that has not helped.

I don't have Panther available anymore so I'm shooting in the dark. You might try to stop syncing and then turn syncing back on (the idea is to break the connection and start new) Be sure to have a backup of anything you can't lose.
You might also try trashing iSync preferences.

Why can I no longer sync with iTunes?

I have 85.5 MB available and can no longer sync with iTunes with wi fi or plug-in. I get an error message that says I'm out of space. Whats the problem?

As I said in my reply to your other post you need more storage available. Like about 1 GB or more. You have to delete stuff from your iPod.

Hi Meg
I am using iBooks on all devices since it became available on the MAC OS. Prior to this (when it still worked) I used adobe reader on the MacBook and iBooks on the iPad and iPhone, as these files synced with the iOS devices.
I noticed some time after an upgrade that some of my files disappeared.
I'd appreciate any assistance.

My new iphone 5 email is synched with my home office computer Outlook email using a POP account, but deleting an email on my computer does not delete it on my phone and vice versa. Is there any way to get a true synch?.

My new iPhone 5 email is synched with my home office computer Outlook email using a POP account, but deleting an email on my computer does not delete the email on my phone and vice versa. Is there any way to get a true synch?.

POP does not support synchronization between the server and clients. You will need to use IMAP or Exchange Active Sync if your email provider supports it.

When I delete a mesage on I phone, does it delete on my computer? and Vice versa?

If I delete an email on my Iphone, does it automatically delete on my computerl? and vice versa?

I was trying to be brief, well there you go

ICal no longer syncing with iPhone

My iCal has suddenly stopped syncing with my iPhone and I have tried everything to get it to work again, with no luck. I do not use iCloud and sync through iTunes.
The operating system on my computer is Mountain Lion, my iPhone is a 4S with iSO 5.1.1 and I am using iTunes 11.0.1.
Does anyone know what could be causing my syncing to suddenly stop? Everything else on my computer is syncing with my iPhone.

You can no longer sync via iTunes. That method of sync was removed (and the 1000+ post thread is arguments over things tangientally related to that).
You need to sync via other means than iTunes, then.
One option is to use iCloud. If you sign into iCloud on all your devices, and then make sure your calendars are in the "iCloud" section on your devices, they should sync.
If you don't want to use iCloud, you could use Google calendars, they operate much the same way (but may be less reliable).
Or if you use Exchange for work, you could sync that way.
Or if none of those are acceptable, you could install OS X Server and set up the calendar server on your local network and use it to sync. This is fairly straightforward "for setting up a UNIX calendar server" but it's not trivial and beyond the scope of a forum post to explain it all

Permanently selfduplicating contacts in adress book, iCal no longer syncs with Outlook

From one Day to the next my mac stopped syncing my outlook calendar with iCal. I tried to reset sync; deleted prefs; deleted cache files, nothing worked for me. Not all of the outlook calandar groups appeared in iCal, now after the calendar groups don't even appear in iCal anymore. I use Outlook 2011 with OSX 10.5.8 (i have to use this as long as we don't get a new database in our company.
Now I realized that one adress in adressbook starts to duplicate itself hundreds of times.
What can i do? How do I stop the selfduplicating adress and how can I fix the sync between Outlook and iCal.
Thx

It appears I have solved the issue myself and thought I would share the solution in case anyone runs into this problem.
In Outlook, I only have one profile. However, Outlook somehow had some settings changed where it prompted me for which profile I wanted to use each time I started Outlook (even though I only have one profile). Because it was prompting me to choose when I start Outlook, I am guessing that when iTunes tried to access Outlook, it was also prompting iTunes to choose which profile to use as well. Since iTunes didn't know which profile, it wasn't syncing properly (note, iTunes never asks you which profile you want to use).
To fix this, I went to the control panel, double clicked the mail icon, clicked the button that says "Show Profiles". I highlighted the only profile I have listed in the drop-down menu and checked the box that says "Always use this profile".
I then sync'd iTunes with my phone and the calendar and contacts finally updated!

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

Ical no longer syncs with macbook

so with the option to sync to the new super duper icloud, there is no longer any sync with the macbook, even though i have "sync with this ipad over wifi" checked.
is there something else i need to do to get the ipad and macbook to sync properly?
i synced the old way, but now of course have three of everything. the option in itunes to replace the ipad's calendar contents with the macbook's didn't work either.
god, what a mess.
any pointers would be very much appreciated.

Outlook 2011 for mac no longer syncs with calendar and contacts

Hi all,
Not sure whether the recent security update botched up my sync, but after recently upgrading to MS Office with Outlook 2011 for the Mac, my contacts and calendar items no longer sync. I've applied the revised security patch to no avail. In fact, I noticed that my contacts were no longer syncing prior to the security update, and in the last day or so, I have noticed that calendar items have ceased to sync. I've tried all of the Microsoft and Apple knowledge-based recipes to correct the problem, but it persists. I may be missing something, or performed the steps out of sequence, but I've tried them many times and I'm sure at least once was to the letter.
The oddity is that the problem appears to be a broken link between iCal and Outlook via the sync process, which uses MobileMe and is administered through iTunes. Perhaps someone has a straightforward instruction set to fix that link?
Is anyone else having this problem of late? I am on Snow Leopard, 10.6.8 on a 2011 MBP with MS Office 2011 and SP1 installed.
Thanks much in advance for any helpful advice.

Thanks Julian for the suggestion. Unfortunately all still checked out and nothing amiss. However, after reinstalling OS 10.6.8 it appears that my calendar items are syncing once again, but not my contacts. I appreciate the suggestion none the less.
This same thing seems to happen each time I've upgraded Office with the associated version of Entourage, and now Outlook. Ah, well..nothing's ever simple. But I am thoroughly enjoying Outlook and the rest of the Office suite.

Outlook no longer syncing with iPhone and Mac??

I was formerly syncing Outlook with iPhone just fine on my Mac...now it's not working!! I think I had to do something via iCal. Whatever it was it's not working and need help ASAP! (no need for iCloud and know that does not work!!!)

I have the same problem too. My iphone is not syncing with my addressbook on the mac, no matter what I try, it is very very frustrating!!

Thanx

By default, your system will automatically restart with all of the same applications open that were open when you shut it down. When you tell your system to shut down or restart, you will get a dialog box like below. You need to uncheck the box. Note that your election here will not be permanent... you will need to select it each time you shutdown (or just close all of your applications before you shutdown).
