Q: 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)

    The only nonsense here are apple clerks that try to extinguish customer complaints. I bought the iphone and payed money. I will stay loud unto the press cares ...

    I know this is hard for you to understand but we don't work for Apple, we are simply Apple users who choose to listen to the infantile ranting that predominates this thread.

     

    Write this down 300 times, 'The Respondents on this site are not Apple Employees'  Eventually you may understand.

     

    You may write it in your own language if you prefer.

    You did a good polemic job for general alexander. But you lost. Now go home and tell tim cook to set local sync on again.

    Do not imagine that you have any authority here, I will give your suggestion the attention it deserves.

    Typo: Yes, as in 'per ardua ad pandemonium' which is what this thread is becoming.

    You do not have to use iCloud, or any cloud. The choice is and always has been yours. If you can't make your own decisions and rely on vendors to tell you what to do there are deeper problems to solve.

    Read the title of the topic. If you are happily using iCloud this thread means nothing to you. You don't have to come to post nonsense reply

    It's not that agree or not agree. When people tried to find the way to use iPhone w/o their personal data synced online, some rascally rabble bothered to come say "hey it's your choice whether you use iCloud or not hue hue". How nonsense.

    Again, it doesn't matter if you think it's nonesense. As long as it doesn't violate the Terms of Use, it's permitted. If you see no value in a post, you are free to ignore it.

    What do you mean by that answer? You are free to ignore my post and I'm free to reply to your post. What was wrong with that from the begining?

    I think you need to read this topic when you are cool. I never said "never come to this thread to post". I said he don't have to come to post nonsense post. You don't have to agree with it. You are free to give a welcome to those rascally rabble.

    You say this over and over ... and I do appreciate the notion ... if applied equally to everybody.

     

    Why don't you say the same to those in multiple dots camp who deny others this very right?
