Why will my bookmarks be deleted when syncing?

Just updated to ios6 and when I sync my snow leopard laptop, it tells me that I will lose 25% of my bookmarks. This never happened before. What do I do?

If you have your bookmarks in Firefox, then no, they are stored on your computer and have no connection with iGoogle at all.

Why don't my podcasts delete when I've listened to them.

Why don't my podcasts delete when I've listened to them. I have them set to do that on my phone and in iTunes but with the app they now stay there until I manually delete them.
I let them completely finish but still they stay on my phone presumably clogging up valuable space there and making it harder to find the unplayed ones.
Why oh why can't we have podcasts back in with our music on iTunes - now I can't listen to a podcast and then when it finishes let it just go onto play music - have to swap apps. God, I hate Apple sometimes when they make something worse and tell you it is for you own good. And yes, I know all big companies are the same....

See:
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/how-do-i-use-bookmarks
In what bookmarks folder are the bookmarks located that you try to search?
You can click the "Show your bookmarks" button that is positioned next to the star on the location/address bar to get a drop-down list with the bookmarks.
Only bookmarks that were created by clicking the star once and that haven't been moved out of the Unsorted folder can't be reached directly.
You can also open the bookmarks sidebar via that drop-down list or use the Ctrl+B shortcut to have the sidebar where you can use its search bar to find a bookmark.
For easiest access you can move a bookmark the the Bookmarks Toolbar folder and have the Bookmarks Toolbar visible.

IPhone Contacts Deleted when Syncing

Help!! My iPhone contacts were deleted when syncing. And only kept a few from my Address Book. Is there a way I can restore them? Please Help! Thanks.

Me too. Although I don't see what MobileMe has to do with it, I don't use it.

HT5361 I want to delete my Verizon email account but I don't want to lose all of the messages I saved over the years into various mailboxes that I created "On My Mac" in Apple Mail. Will they be erased / deleted when I delete the account?

I want to delete my Verizon email account but I don't want to lose all of the messages I saved over the years into various mailboxes that I created "On My Mac" in Apple Mail. Will they be erased / deleted when I delete the account?

Yes, it's a POP account. I kinda thought that the old messages would be safe in mailboxes "On My Mac," but since it's an irrevocable choice, I was reluctant to pull the trigger. However, the suggestion above from keg55 relieves my concerns on that score; I'll make a backup copy before I delete the account just to be on the safe side.
Thanks very much to both WZZZ and keg55, I really appreciate it!

Will iTunes-bought music be deleted when syncing with a computer?

Let's say I buy a few songs on my iPad. Will they be deleted when I sync with iTunes on my computer?

They should not be, they should be synced to the computer.
Before syncing , click File>Transfer Purchases if you want to be sure.

Previous photo's deleted when syncing a new folder.

Trying to sync photos with Itunes (windows 7)into separate albums, but when syncing a group or folder it deletes the previous album or photos. I can't see anything in Itunes to change to avoid this. Apple is not making "Photo" PC friendly.
Any ideas???

I have a 16GB 3G iPad. I sync it to an iMac 2.8 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo running 10.6.3.
I have a desktop folder that I use for syncing photos with the iPad. Recently I modified some of the photos in the desktop folder and when I try to sync, I get a dialog saying: “The iPad is synced with another photo library or folder. Do you want to sync with your photo library and replace all existing photos on this iPad with those from your photo library?”
When I open the iPad Photos pane in iTunes, the “Sync Photos from:...” check box shows only iPhoto and when I check the box, a dialog pops up saying, “Are you sure you want to sync photos? All existing photos and albums on iPad will be replaced with photos and albums from the current photo library.” I don’t WANT to sync to an iPhoto library, I want to sync to the photo folder on my iMac’s desktop. I am not given the opportunity to pull down the menu beside the “Sync Photos from:...” menu.
Help, please?

Why will my gen2 ipod no longer sync podcasts. I can still download from music from itunes itunes

Why is my ipod gen2 no longer syncing podacasts. They appear on itunes page but will not transfer to ipod. Music is still working fine. Thank you.

If at all possible, copy your entire iTunes folder from your old computer to your new one (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527). Otherwise, you will lose and music that was not purchased from the iTune store unless you use 3rd party software such as Touch Copy to transfer it to your new computer. See this article for how to move to a new computer with minimal or no data loss: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141.

Can I prevent old calendars to be deleted when syncing?

I was wondering if there is any way to prevent iCal from deleting old calendars when syncing Blackberrys or other phones that usually force cancellation upon sync of events which are older than a certain time frame.
Thank you!

Why will my Bookmarks not sync in Ipad?

My Bookmarks are not appearing in either my IPAD or IPHONe. I have tried all of the suggestions both at Apple and here.
Is this a common thing after the last IOS update or am I missing something.
Any suggestions?

Hi ann1483,
Firefox orders its bookmarks by last bookmarked afaik. If you are interested in the technical functions/code you can search the lxr code [http://lxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/search] for importing bookmarks.
Right clicking and selecting sorting a-z would put them in alphabetical order.

Apps are deleted when sync ipod

When I sync my touch, apps on it keep getting deleted so i have to stop the sync
Why does it keep doing that? What can I do?

I just tried again and it says "you have authorize this computer, if you don't your apps will be deleted"
i keep authorizing it and it says "this computer is already authorized"
But it keeps asking me to authorize it anyway

I continue to get error (0x80092013) when trying to access the iTunes Store; even when I don't click it and iTunes is open it will pop up. Now, when syncing my iPod, it says my computer is unauthorized for my Apple ID.

I have used the same Apple ID and computer for years with no changes even now, and suddenly I am unable to sync my iPod. When I authorize it and log in correctly, I get the (0x80092013) error again, as WELL as error (-50). This is extremely annoying! How do I fix this?

Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
Please note:
Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

Podcasts deleting when syncing

I am having a problem when trying to sync my ipod or iphone with itunes on my PC. Whenever I attempt to do so, podcasts will delete themselves from my hard-drive. The podcast still appears in itunes but there is an exclamation point by the podcast and no file linked to the podcast.
Has anyone else had this problem? If so, do you know how to fix the problem?

Don't know your situation, but iTUnes consider podcast played as soon as play has started. If set to sync unplayed episodes then partially played podcasts will be removed from ipod.
I have found best settings for podcasts are for iTunes and iPod to be set to keep all episodes. Then delete the files yourself when done listening to them. Or play podcasts from playlist and manage contents of playlist.

ICal events being deleted when syncing with Palm Zire 21

I have been syncing my Palm Zire 21 with iCal successfully for over a year with few problems. A few weeks ago I noticed that almost, but not all of the events on both the Palm device and iCal more than three months old were gone. Then, a few weeks later, I noticed that the events suddenly were all back in the iCal application, but not on the Palm device.
But this week, I used HotSync (as usual) to sync iCal and the Palm device, and the events were gone again. Now I am wondering what on Earth I am doing to cause this. I have read the articles about setting up to sync. I double-checked to be sure I have been syncing the way that is outlined in the instructions in the help articles.
I must have missed something vital. I have been backing up my iCal to my .Mac account using Backup. I am thinking that I can restore the iCal events using my last backup. Can I? And how do I keep this from happening again?
MacBook Pro Mac OS X (10.4.10) "OS10.4.10" "iSync 2.4" "iCal 2.0.5" "Hotsync 3.1"

Found the issue for me. The events are not deleted, but filtered in the standard calendar view. The iPhone shows everything as it should. Outlook 2003 has all the events to as seen when going to categories view.
It seems that once events pass on the iPhone and then a sync via iTunes to Outlook 2003 the "All Day Event" field is removed from the calendar entry.
Creating another Day/Week/Month View in outlook 2003 that has a filter to only include calendar entries where the "All Day Event" field "does not exist" will allow viewing the "hidden" past events.
Hopefully this will be fixed VERY SOON.

Tunes to Contacts deleted when sync

My biggets frustration is that I have allocatd tunes/songs to varios contacts. Everytime I sync it removes these....HELP

See user guide page 10ff:
Contacts
You can sync contacts with applications such as Mac OS X Address Book, Microsoft
Address Book, Google Address Book, Windows Address Book (Outlook Express),
Vista Contacts, or Microsoft Outlook 2003 or 2007 on a PC. (On a Mac, you can sync
contacts with multiple applications. On a PC, you can sync contacts with only one
application at a time.)
If you sync with Yahoo! Address Book, you only need to click Configure to enter your
new login information when you change your Yahoo! ID or password after you’ve
set up syncing.
http://manuals.info.apple.com/enUS/iPhone_UserGuide.pdf
Set up your contacts on your pc as desired, select "delete info on iphone once" in the info pane in itunes when your phone is connected. Your contacts will be synced from our pc to your phone. After the sync you should have the same info on pc and phone.

Game level deleted when syncing with new library?

I created a new library in itunes. I logged on with my apple ID. Game apps i paid for where downloaded to itunes. When i now sync my ipad with the new library, will the levels in the games still be on my ipad, or will they be deleted?

Thanks for the tip. However, the document does not contain the answer to my question. That document says that the music library is completely deleted and then new library is uploaded from the computer. I guess that the same will happen to movies and TV-shows. The questions is, if this will happen to apps also in a way that all the settings and saves will be lost. I would not want to try this without knowing what will happen, because losing all my saves would be annoying, even though there is nothing really important.
