Windows 8.1 - sync problem with iCloud

I just installed Windows 8.1 on my PC. Now I cannot see any Outlook info that is synced thru iCloud. When will there be a fix?

I had this problem after upgrading from win 8 to the beta 8.1 kept geting a message that outlook (2010) couldn't open the icloud calander or contact folder. I fixed it by uninstalling icloud from the computer then reinstalled it and it all worked OK

Sync problems with iCloud & Outlook 2010?

I am having sync problems with Outlook. Sync seems to cause outlook to crash, run boggy, etc. Tried Code Two software to sync which only made thing worse. Any ideas?

Another way to put it would be: What is the optimal combination when you have a Windows PC running Outlook on one hand, and want to sync contact and calendar information with your iPhone over the Internet?
Maybe I should ask, what is the least painful way of doing this?
Is it Gmail+Outlook+some add on?
Outlook.com + Outlook?
Or something else?

Sync problems with iCloud + Exchange

Since 3-4 weeks the email/calendar synchronization with my iPhone's (3GS and 4S) and iPad 2 is nor working properly any more,
I have in parallel installed an iCloud account for private and an Exchange account for business use.
Only if I turn the iPhones/iPad off and on it syncs for one time. After that the email app always shows the turning wheel and "Receiving emails" and does nothing more at all.
As soon as I delete my iCloud account on the iPhone's/iPad the Exchange account works perfect again without any problems. As soon as I reinstall iCloud all email/calendar sync for Exchange and iCloud is dead again.
So there must be a problem with the iCloud sync which also affects the Exchange sync.
As long as I used my Exchange account together with Gmail I had no problems at all.
Hopefully Apple fixes this problem with iCloud within the next days otherwise I have to go to Google back again.
Any people out there with the same problem?

I have boiled the problem down to just the icloud contacts. If I leave them off everything is fine when I turn them on my exchange accounts will not update.

Photo sync problem with Windows Vista?

I did some searching and was wondering if there is a solution to the photo sync problem with Windows Vista. I have gone the route of changing some of my photos to bitmap files but this is was way too much work just to view on ipod. I like to email Apple but could not find a link to do so. As far as I know I have all updates but still the iPod does not sync photos. Is there an update to this that I am missing or am I stuck changing all my photos to .bmp files?
Thanks,
Dean.

I checked out the article and not much help, thanks anyway.
Would it make a difference if I purchased Adobe Photo Album or would I still be stuck with changing and saving files to .bmp extensions? I have Adobe Photoshop album starter but still have to change file extensions.
If someone has a solution to this problem I would really be greatfull. I did contact Dell as this is a brand new computer and that was a wash. They did give me a number for Apple but of course I bought the iPod off of ebay and has no warranty on it so unless I pay a fee I'm not calling. It just blows my mind that Microsoft and Apple can't or won't come up with a fix. But I guess when Microsoft wants you to buy the Zune or Apple wants you to buy the overpriced Macintosh why would they waste time on having there products compatible with each other.
Thanks.

Problems with iCloud, iPhone and Macbook Pro [Sync]

Hello.
I've been sat down for a while now trying to figure out how to sort out my university schedule. I've had several problems occur, while they all seem to relate somehow.. I have setup my iCloud account with a stable connection and subscribed to my calendars for my 2012, Spring semester. My goal is to sync iCal with my iPhone so I can bring my calendar with me at all time.
1. I subscribe and create the events I need to remember with times set to a specific date on a weekly basis. Meaning I don't want it to occur daily, but each week on a specific date.
2. I sync this with iCloud and can see the calendar preview on www.icloud.com on my user account.
3. I go on my iPhone to sync the device with iCloud and this is where my problem appears.
When I have synced my iPhone with iCloud it looks like something went wrong and my event duplicates twice and starts to re-occur each day instead of weekly (on the same specific day). I have no clue on how to troubleshoot this sort of problem and ended up creating my own discussion thread.
Sincerly,
Christopher
Products used: Macbook Pro, iPhone 3GS and iCloud.
Additional information: I have turned off iTunes sync, however the problem lies somewhere with iCloud / iPhone.

If it is running Lion or the upcoming Mountain Lion,
the following can be synced on both devices via iCloud:
-iCloud mail ([email protected]) or items forwarded to
iCloud Mail
-Safari bookmarks
-Calendars
-Files using any Apple app that is available both for
iOS and OSX.
-Address Book
-Photos
These are what Lion supports. Perhaps there may
be additional items when Mountain Lion releases.
Syncing of the Messages app coud be added since
Messages is going to be added in Mountain Lion.
See the iCloud support page:

IPhone 3GS SYnc problems with Windows 7 64 Bit

I am having sync problems with windows 7 64 Bit.
The iPhone syncs a few tracks then hangs, a few minutes later itunes tells me the iphone has timed out.
Anyone have any ideas about this. I have tried different USB ports, cleaned the apple USB cable contacts with Servisol, restored the iPhone and reinstalled itunes.
iPhone and iTunes are latest versions.
Thanks
Joe

"Try this connect the iPhone, let the mtp driver installation fail, then go into the device manager and uninstall the unknown mtp device. If you then scan for new hardware from the device manager it should recognize the iPhone & update the driver."
Ok here's what I did:
1) Connect the iPhone (iTunes had been installed)
2) No MTP driver installation is happening as Windows detects iPhone successfully
3) Open Device Manager
4) There seems to be 2 drivers for iPhone that are active now, although I still can't see which one is the MPT driver you're referring to.
One of them sits under Portable Devices: "Apple iPhone". If I view the details of this driver, it lists the following files:
- C:\Windows\system32\DRIVERS\UMDF\WpdMtpDr.dll
- C:\Windows\system32\DRIVERS\winusb.sys
- C:\Windows\system32\DRIVERS\WUDFRd.sys
- C:\Windows\system32\WpdMtp.dll
- C:\Windows\system32\WpdMtpUS.dll
The other one sits under Universal Serial Bus controllers: "Apple Mobile Device USB Driver". And as indicated by Joe above, it lists the following files when I view the Details:
- C:\Windows\system32\Drivers\usbaapl64.sys
- C:\Windows\system32\usbaaplrc.dll

Microsoft Office 2007 for Windows: Problems with iCloud

I thought I'd share on this topic, which caused me a lot of grief before it was finally resolved. I'm running MS Office 2007 on my PC, under Vista.
Office kept crashing on going to File:Open or Save As - after downloading iCloud Control Panel. I tried uninstalling iCloud and iTunes, without benefit. I also checked for malware, ran Office Repair, re-installed Office etc etc. Finally I re-installed iTunes and iCloud Control Panel, and ran iCloud Control Panel, which I hadn't done the first time. I allowed it to integrate with just about everything, and after that Office was fine! There is now an iCloud icon at the bottom right of the screen, and a Photostream icon in the Office File Open/Save window. Outlook also has an iCloud section in the Toolbar. I had to run iCloud Control Panel for each logon user on my computer.
It appears that simply installing iCloud caused it to do something to Office, but this was incomplete and required that the program needed to be run in order to complete the process. May I suggest that Apple programmers take note?
Nick

Since posting the above, I found that the problem recurred. In desperation I purchased MS Office 2010, assuming it would cope with iCloud. Initially it was fine, but then the same thing happened! I signed out of iCloud, then signed back in and de-selected Outlook, Photostream and Bookmarks. This seems to have fixed the problem for now, but there does seem to be a problem with iCloud and Office.

Sync problems with my iphone

Can anyone offer suggestions for trobleshooting sync problems with my iphone. Recently I have connected my iphone and my ipod to my computer while having itunes open and I do not see my devices in itunes. I have powered off the iphone and powered back on and I have the most recent version of itunes on my computer. I have also tried multiple USB ports and multiple cords on my computer. When I go to file in itunes, Sync is not an option (greyed out). Any suggestions?

Had the same issue last year on XP Pro.
1) Start->All Programs->Apple Software Update Run this and make sure your up to date on iTunes.
2) Unplug both devices.
3) Restart the computer (I know your tired of being told this-it's a windows thing and sometimes it's a PO'd IT person thing either way do it).
4) After restart open iTunes.
5) wait a tad for iTunes to open all the way up, navigate through your music to make sure. Then connect the iPhone. Watch your clock area and you should see two pop-ups. One says Found new device, second says iPhone.
Last, if it doesn't appear it's because windows photo capture is trying to connect to the iPhone. Minimize iTunes and you'll probably have a pop up sitting there. THIS WINDOW will not show up in the task bar.

New iTunes, same sync problems with Vista

Hi
I got really excited when I saw in the fixes for the latest iTunes 8.1 for Windows that they had fixed sync problems with iPhones. They haven't!
On Vista Ultimate the sync has always been a problem, with either OutlookSyncClient or AppleMobileSync (or both) frequently crashing. With the previous couple of versions of iTunes, in my case, it has happened every third or fourth sync. Now with the new version it is almost every sync. It took me five disconnect and reconnect attempts and a couple of reboots to succcessfully sync this morning.
I've tried every fix I can find on line. I read that the Outlook sync problem was caused by an incompatibility with pst files that were not unicode. Oddly, I wasn't supposed to be able to sync with an old pst at all, but it did work erratically. Converting my pst to unicode didn't make any difference.
With the AppleMobileSync problem, I read that completely removing all Apple software in a particular order, restarting each time between removals, then clean reinstalling, should solve the problem. It didn't.
Now the problem is even worse and I'm at my wits end on it. Come on Apple, get a grip!
If anyone can shed any light on this I would be really grateful!

Yosemite Mail still has sync problems with Gmail - any solutions?

I notice that Yosemite Mail still has sync problems with Gmail. After running for some hours, I noticed there were 6 emails in my Gmail account that had not synced over the past hour.
In the meanwhile, for safety's sake (don't want to miss emails!) I'm back to Mailplane. But I wonder if anybody knows of a solution to this long term problem first introduced in Mavericks. Works fine in iOS Mail though.
Thanks,
doug

I don't think we'll ever have a "best of both worlds" Doug. I've used Gmail since the week it launched the first beta in 2004, and it's always been a bit of a love-hate relationship for me (mostly love). With the demise of the Google Notifier for Mac, I went with Mailplane, but even it has problems. Like when I see my iPhone update with new mail and I'm looking at Mailplane and it won't update at times with even a forced refresh. I often have to close/reopen it to see new messages. But, it's hard to live without my Google Calendar only a tab click away, one of the primary reasons I use Mailplane, that plus changing view zoom sticks with Mailplane and won't with Gmail.
For years I've thought Gmail labels were the perfect filing solution, but over the past few weeks I've been analyzing just how much I really use that feature, and for me...it's not all that much. I think I could simplify my life by putting everything into appropriate folders (as in all other email apps). Apple doesn't realize just how much money they're losing by not allowing people to use private domains with iCloud mail...which I would do in a heartbeat just because it would work perfectly with Mail.app. I would pay even more than I currently pay Google for this solution with Google Apps Business. So, I'm actually on the verge of moving my private domain to the best email service I can find and then using it with Mail.app. The problem here, of course, is I'll lose the best spam control on the planet (Gmail). So, as you say, there simply is not a "best" solution for all these things. I'll at least try a new email service first with some other domain to see how I like it before moving my primary email.
Lastly, the other thing that incenses me is synching of flags between iOS and Apple Mail. It works fine between Gmail and iOS Mail, since all I care about is whether a message is starred/flagged or not. But using Apple Mail, when I flag a message it will not show as flagged in their own iOS Mail, which is incomprehensible, given they built both apps.
If you find a great solution or discover anything new...please post it here, Doug. Thanks.

How can I sync my IPOD Nano 4 to iTunes on my PC? I've already tried the sync button on iTunes and it says it is synced. I've also tried the 5 steps recommended by Apple to fix sync problems with no luck.

How is your iPod configured to sync content from your iTunes library? Any error messages during the sync process?
You may want to reset warnings on the device by right->clicking on it under Devices and choosing Reset Warnings. Then resync the iPod to see if any alerts appear.
Is this the same computer you normally sync the Nano with?

On my Mac Mini, I keep getting this error message: "iCloud encountered an error while trying to connect to the server". I don't have any problems with iCloud on my laptop / PC. It works fine... Does anyone know what the problem could be?

Your Mac must be on Lion (10.7) to run iCloud. Apple had to change the operating system to fully support it. Nevertheless, it is possible to get emails from iCloud without having Lion. Please tell me if this interests you.
Anyways, here is the link to buy Lion (30 dollars, totally worth the upgrade ): http://itunes.apple.com/be/app/os-x-lion/id444303913?mt=12

To map the drive on your computer click on Start - RUN - type "\\192.168.1.1" and click ok... When prompted for Username and Password type "admin" and click ok... Now you will be able to see the folder which you have shared on your router, right click on it and select "Map network drive" and click on finish.
Now it will map the drive on your computer and you should be able to transfer the file from your computer to the USB drive.

Sync problems with outlook 2007 calender

I am new in this type of comms.
BUT: I have a Palm Tungsten T5; have Palm Desktop 6.2.2 with the update for Windows7.
I have a sync problem with outlook 2007 calender; contacts, ToDo, memos all ok.
HotSynLog says: there are multi-day repeating records. [i knew that they do not sync, hence i deleted them PRIOR to syncing]
I found the listed records BUT either on dif days and they are "no timed" ones! and NOT multi-days ones.
I deleted them anyway - did a re-sync. With no different result. Still listed - though deleted and now non-existent.
Error code: OLERR: 03-000F (0xaf604005) and others - if this means anything.
Post relates to: Palm TX

Hello,
I receive email on my device from two addresses: 1) @sprint.blackberry.net and 2) @charter.net. When I was having problems similar to those you are experiencing, I had these two addresses listed under Default Services - Calendar (CICAl) - Messaging (CMIME). These addresses were @sprint.blacberry.net and @charter.net. Once I followed the steps previously referenced, only one email address(@sprint.blackberry.net) appeared under the (CICAI) and (CMMIE) default setting. Reference to @charter.net was removed. My syncs have worked correctly since then; however, I only two way synce with the device and Outlooks. I also continue to get emails from both addresses without a problem.
If you don't mind giving up the Yahoo calendar, I would do the same. If you want to continue using the Yahoo calendar, I'm guessing that it must be selected in the Default Services - Calendar (CICAI) before performing a sync. Likewise for your @sprint.blackberry.net address; it also must be selected in the Default Services prior to performing a device to Outlook sync.
I hope this helps.
