Why does my aol mail not sync properly with the Droid Razr? Never had the problem with blackberry but now I deal with a great deal of spam & duplicating tasks

This may sound stupid, but I'm gonna throw it out there anyway. Is it possible, that if I have enough junk on my desktop it might disrupt the signal? It seems odd, but it kind of looks like my signal is strong and relatively steady now that I've cleaned my desktop. I do tend to get very cluttered. I use a lot of reference images and save text clippings to use later... it just piles up very quickly.
So, I wonder if all that extra effort my system has to do keeping up with the junk might have something to do with the drop outs?

TS3992 why does my e mail not back up on icloud its set to do so on my phone but doesnt back up to icloud

why does my email not back up to i cloud from my iphone 4 it's set to do so in my icloud settings on my phone and backs up contacts but not emails

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
Your mail isn't backed up in iCloud. If you are using your @me.com or @icloud.com, all your mails are stored in iCloud, and when you delete them from here, you can't recover them. Mails aren't backed up onto iCloud. When you have Mail turned on in Settings > iCloud, it just means that you are using your @me.com or @icloud.com address on your iPhone

Why does my google toolbar not work properly with the new updates. It was such a convenience to use the old toolbar to go to places I had visited before. Now I cannot get those old addresses with anything but Firefox 3.62 or whatever.

Why does Google Toolbar not work with the newer versions of Firefox.

Google have stopped supporting Google Toolbar on the latest versions of Firefox. Apparently one of the reasons for this decision is that modern browsers already tend to support many of the functions that google toolbar provides.
Firefox does allow you to specifically bookmark sites you have chosen, and also automatically remembers many of the sites you visit.

ICal To-Do list does not sync properly with Mail To-Do list

For some reason, my iCal To-Do List does not sync properly with my Mail To-Do list. Any thoughts on how to get them to sync properly? I always have more To-Dos on my Mail list than my iCal list, which probably means that when I complete a To-Do in iCal, it doesn't register with Mail.
Any thoughts?

ensure that your mail set up is checked for syncing note; your comment on the todo list is valid and i have been asking the same question for a while. ToDo also syncs on blackberry? I guess it shows that third party software is the kick that come corp's need to pick up their act.

Why does my address book not sync to iCloud?

Why does my address book not sync to iCloud?

I believe the duplicate address book accounts stems from the move from MobileMe to iCloud and both accounts still being active.
This is how I merged the two address books:
1) To make sure all the contacts are in both:
a) I selected On My Mac account - clicked on any address - Command A to select all - drag the contacts to the iCloud account - answered OK to merge and resolve duplicates.
b) same in reverse: select the iCloud account - click on an address - click Command A to select all - drag the contacts to the On My Mac account - answer OK to merge and resolve duplicates.
In system preferences I found an iCloud icon and also a MobileMe icon. I was logged in under both.
1) In the Address Book preferences I selected iCloud and unchecked Enable this account.
2) In the Address Book I selected iCloud and clicked on the minus “-” to remove that account – leaving only the local Mac address book.
3) I went into system preferences and logged out of MobileMe
4) In system preferences I opened iCloud and the “Contacts” was not selected (from above) and I selected it.
I got a dialog box asking if I wanted to merge the iCloud contact with the local contacts – clicked YES.
… spinning wheel for a minute … voila – only one address book account – iCloud with syncing to iCloud and my iPhone.

Why does my iphone 3gs not sync with contacts?

On my Mac Pro, contacts and Thunderbird contacts are synced. I want my Iphone to sync with the Contacts on the Mac Pro. Incidently I am not using Icloud. Is that the problem?

Contacts on my iphone does not sync properly with icloud.

Contacts on my iphone does not sync properly with icloud. I have merged data with facebook contacts, and this merged information appears as I want it to be on icloud.com. But on the iphone, the facebook contacts and the icloud contact appear separately.
I have tried exporting the contacts out of icloud.com, then deleting all contacts on both icloud.com and on the iphone; then importing the vcard back into icloud.com, but the facebook details still appear as a separate contact. It is too time consuming to merge all of my contacts manually What should I do in order for the iphone to display the contacts as it is on icloud.com?

Is there some sort of Facebook tag on the vCard?

My iPad is not syncing properly with my calendar on my computer. Everything is a day off on the IPad. Any suggestions?

My iPad calendar is not syncing properly with my computer. Everything in the iPad Calendar is one day off....any suggestions?

Susan,
Also note that the calender can be set to preserve a time zone by going to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars and turning ON Time Zone Support - but then your flight times will be correct for the local time zone...found that one while on travel and the calender was showing a flight time that was an hour earlier than I thought it was. I had not turned on Time Zone support and it moved the time I had entered at home to the time of the local zone.
Convenient as long as you pay attention

Not Syncing Properly with Gmail

Hello fellow Mac owners/fans,
I am new to Snow Leopard. Just upgraded from Tiger today. Such a nice improvement! Anyways, as such, I was setting everything up when I ran into a problem with Mail
Mail is not syncing properly with Gmail. My Gmail account has roughly 5800 total messages and 1900 unread messages (I need to clean it up quite a bit, I know ). Mail shows it as having 8500 total messages and 2200 unread messages. Mail is quite wrong. I don't know if I accidentally fetched some of the Gmail files twice, or what, but I would like for Mail to be correctly synced with Gmail.
Any ideas on what to do? Is there a quick fix or am I going to have to reset Mail?
I very much appreciate any help! Thanks for your time!
-Kyle

Hello,
You may have the dreaded double download disease. I was just fighting the bug this morning, and may have a cure that I am hoping some other guinea pig will test.
You may want to check and see if you see duplicate emails in Mail. If you want to know more about the issue you can search duplicate emails.
Anyway the secret medicine if it is a duplicate issue may be below. (It seems to be working for my issue, but am trying to get some other confirmation)
I came across an old hint (from 2001 at Mac OS X hints)
It states:
Avoid receiving duplicate emails in Mail.app
Sun, Dec 23 2001 at 9:54AM PST • Contributed by: NikWest
There is a hidden default for Mail, which I do not think has been mentioned here. You can avoid receiving duplicate Messages (e.g. from mailing lists) by opening a Terminal and typing:
defaults write com.apple.mail UniqueMessagesBeforeRouting 1
Before receiving the whole message, the message ID (a mail header) will be checked. If there's already a mail with this message ID, it will be discarded.
To disable the feature, repeat the command with a '0' at the end instead of a '1'.
This seems to work for now, any one else willing to try?
Good luck

Why does my Apple Mail insert old messages into the body of new emails?

Why does my Apple Mail insert old messages into the body of new emails? The correct sender's name will appear in the "From" column, but an old message from a different sender in the body. This happens randomly. I have an iMac OSX 10.6.8. I recently had the hard drive cleaned, but Apple Mail seemed to be running fine when I set it up again. Could this be a virus? What should I do about it? Thanks for any insights!

Thanks. While you were replying to my question, I went into notifications and figured
it out. Appreciate the quick response!

Why does gardens of time not allow feedback in the app store

why does gardens of time not allow feedback in the app store

Apple saw it as their responsibility since the redirection took me to the App Store. They assisted me in stopping the redirection which is occurring on many peoples iPhones. It's a have java script problem that adking is using to get you to buy their games. The websites work normal and then all of the sudden the website is taken over by adking.com. You can no longer use the website as it immediately takes you to the App Store without ever showing a popup to cancel the redirection. They were very helpful fixing the problem should others experiencing this specifically with adking.com.
No need to get defensive. I'm not the only one experiencing the problem Apple said.

Why is my latest itunes not syncing music with my music on my iphone 4s with iOS 7?

Why is my latest itunes not syncing music with my music on my iphone 4s with iOS 7?

Here's what I did. If you have an existing playlist and add a song to it, drag the whole playlist into the phone icon. It will ask if you want to Replace the playlist..YES. In my case i added one song in the playlist to test it. It synced the one song and also kept all the other songs but it didnt run through every song, so it was really fast. This is what I would do...drag and drop. Also, I shut down my phone and started it again, before I did the sync. I hope this helps

If you are not on your home LAN you are limited by the bandwidth of the site you are using. While the WiFi speed is 54 mbps, that is shared among all users on that access point, so you don't get all of it. In addition, you are limited by the speed of the link connecting you to the Internet backbone. For most commercial WiFi sites this is rather slow; a T1, for example, is 1.55 Mbps, and it is also shared. So doing the same calculation, and assuming you are the only one using that connection, it would take about 13 hours to sync 7 MB. In addition, to do that, your computer with your bookmarks, music, etc. would have to be configured as a server accessible from the Internet, so any of the world's millions of hackers would potentially have access to your computer.
The reason email can sync is that it is stored on your ISP's server, and the iPhone can retrieve it from there. Your bookmarks, notes, music and videos are NOT on your ISP's server, so you would have to make your own computer a server, get (and pay for) a fixed IP address (typically ~$100/month), and know enough about what you are doing to configure it.
If you are on your home LAN your WiFi speed is 54 Mbps (for 801.11G routers), but you require 2 way transfers; one from your computer to the LAN and one from the LAN to your iPhone. Ethernet protocol also adds overheard, so the effective speed of a wireless LAN is around 25% of the theoretical maximum bandwidth. Thus, your actual throughput is 25% of 54 Mbps, or 13.5 Mbps, and that is split in two by the need for your computer to upload while the iPhone is downloading, giving a total throughput of about 6 Mbps. Doing the same calculation again you get 20 minutes. But you are next to your computer anyway, so why not just plug it in and do it in 3 minutes?

My playlists do not sync properly with my iphone

I have playlists in iTunes, which is fully up-to-date, on my 4 month old MBP.
When I sync these playlists with my iPhone 4 (iOS 5.01), the playlists are incomplete on the iPhone.
For some reason, some of the songs are missing in the playlists, though the songs themselves ARE on the iPhone (and can be played outside of the playlist).
Solutions tried so far...
I removed all of my music (and playlists) via iTunes from my iPhone, then re-sync'd them. No change.
I deleted one of the incomplete playlists (one that wouldn't sync properly from iTunes), I recreated it, and tried to sync it with my iPhone. No change.
I'm at a loss. Why would SOME songs in my playlists show up, but NOT ALL? I suspect this has something to do with iOS 5.01, iCloud, and/or NOT using iTunes Match???? I've never had a problem with syncing before iOS 5 and iCloud.
I'd appreciate any solution to this problem.
Thanks.

I have this exact problem, I switched to ios5 on my iPhone 4 and tried syncing it with my mac mini. All the playlists are complete on itunes but for some reason 75% of the playlists are empty on the phone but the music all there.
I've tried everything you have but I think the only thing left to do is remove all the songs from iTunes and then re add them and recreate all the new playlists.
