Q: Remove iCloud syncing, revert to iTunes syncing?
How do I disable the iCloud syncing of Contacts and Calendar and just get that info back on my iMac so I can sync to my iDevices manually when I want to?
I decided to start using iCloud to sync my devices and now I am in a mess.
My wife and I each have an iPhone and iPad but we share an iMac she mainly uses the iMac for email and web. We only have one share contact list with all our info in it (address book) and one calendar and one iTunes store account.
I wanted to sync my MacBook Air with the contacts and calendar so I set up iCloud syncing on the iMac.
For some reason about a month ago when I finally got around to moving to iCloud I set the MacBook Air up with a subset of my calendar and contact list and I use my wife’s account.
Long story shortened, I am now in a mess and I would just like to go back to keeping my contacts and calendars on my iMac (not worry about the MacBook Air as I just use it for travel and don’t really need the contact and calendar on it).
Also, I can no longer sync my contacts to my first gen iPod Touch.
After all the discussion on why... My original question...
How do I disable the iCloud syncing of Contacts and Calendar and just get that info back on my iMac so I can sync to my iDevices manually when I want to?
Thanks,
