How to locally sync an iPhone with OS X Mavericks? iCloud is NOT an option.

I read that OS X Mavericks will no longer allow me to use iTunes to sync my iPhone to a local system but makes iCloud mandatory? Is that correct?

iCloud is not a valid option for me since I have no control about my data there, I need to keep all my data (contacts, calendar...) on a system under my control and so far iTunes allowed me to do that which was one of the reasons I didn't even consider Android or Windows Phone.

OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.5)

Please remember that speculation is forbidden by the TOU. So stop speculating.

I was thinking of you. But if I happen to come into the equation then so be it.

Be quiet. There is a question mark at the end, see it? It was a question, not speculation. Don't make me expose you again.

Gummie? A tad childish no?

What I suspect I'm encouraging is you. I should stop that. Goodbye.

So you just dropped by to inflame things again in this thread? Hate to see it lay dormant even after solutions have been given? Seems we have found our troll.

I believe that living under the bridge makes it harder to stay current.

You are brilliant. All I can say to that is;

Pot, kettle.
