Well, I don’t have these, so I can’t say.ġ) “TFSyncDoc…”. Since it’s not an iCloud account, I guess this excludes this explanation, doesn’t it? > I am talking about my 2nd account just so you get the full picture. I don’t think my phone is even aware that I have this account, and in any case it is NOT an iCloud account, just an Apple ID with CC info for iTunes. However, I only use this account in iTunes on the Mac to purchase music occasionally (log on, then back to my “main” Apple ID). I do have another “Apple ID” (with a credit card from another country). This same account/email/Apple ID is also my unique iCloud account. I bought the Mac and the iPhone Tapforms with the same “Apple ID” account. This “auto-pull, manual push sync” thingy really confuses the hell out of me…I guess I am missing the logic -) In any case, I had already tried: 2 or 3 steps appear at the top of the phone, for 2-3 seconds, but nothing else changes.īrendan, thanks for the detailed response! It will let you look at all the iCloud files generated by all the apps that you have on your iOS device that use iCloud. The only way I know of to look into that is to use the iExplorer app from. It would be interesting to see what’s in the mobile documents folder for Tap Forms on your iOS device. Or if you’re just syncing a small change. If your database is quite small, then most likely the progress bars won’t increase. But it really all depends on how much data you’re syncing too. It normally will increase when you’re syncing for the first time (or after doing the Reset iCloud Sync procedure and syncing again for the first time). That’s when you may or may not see the progress bar increasing. During the display of those messages, Tap Forms is simply gathering all the changes you’ve made since the last time you tapped the Sync button and generating a database file that contains just those changes.Īfter that happens, iCloud should kick in and upload the change file Tap Forms generated to Apple’s iCloud servers. It will happen sometime AFTER the messages in the status bar stop displaying. That will only happen on your iOS device when you tap on the Sync button on your iOS device. They will move only after some time when files are either being downloaded to Tap Forms from iCloud or you’re uploading files to iCloud from Tap Forms. The progress bars will mostly just sit at 0%. That’s a big indicator that something isn’t working right with iCloud Sync. When you look in the SyncDocuments directory on your Mac for the Tap Forms iCloud container, do you see just a single TFSyncDevice file? If so, then iCloud isn’t sending the files from your iOS device(s) to your Mac. So if you see the same kinds of troubles with iWork, then maybe you’re experiencing a similar issue. Tap Forms and iWork both use the Documents & Data iCloud sync service to do the syncing. Now, I’m not sure if that’s really the case for everyone, but that seemed to be the trouble for him. They contacted Apple Support and Apple said that the problem they were having was because they purchased the iWork apps with one Apple ID, but are trying to sync it with a different account that they use for iCloud. One of my customers today told me that they had troubles with iCloud sync in Tap Forms and also in Apple’s iWork applications. So, this is just my opinion, but I trust many others will come: PLEASE think about supporting tried, tested and cross-platform sync methods: wifi, dropbox, webdav for personal cloud solutions…or messaging pigeons for all I care -) – iCloud sync – which I had never needed – turns out to be exactly as read too often: unreliable, non-transparent for developers and users alike, capricious. – I still trust Tapform is “my” alternative for Bento, but I can’t use it yet. Here is my conclusion for the moment, as a user: Really, I am not!īut I won’t loose any more time on something that “should just work” (e.g. Now Brendan, I don’t want to sound as an angry user. – Deactivating iCloud sync on the Mac + clearing the /mobile documents folderĪny help is welcome, I have browsed 100 pages to find a solution, but I may have missed something of course! – Re-entering my iCloud account in the phone. ![]() ![]() – Removing the iCloud account from the phone altogether – Reactivating iCloud docs sync in the phone – Deactivating iCloud docs sync in the phone My attempts include dozens of combinations of the below actions, in different orders: ![]() I have already read and tried solutions from I have tried several times over 3 weeks and from 2 countries, so iCloud downtime/exotic ISP port filtering is not an option. Whatever I do, the sync remains blocked at “Upload 0.0%” (I have waited up to 30 minutes, and this was with the default DB and its 2 records!). The iCloud sync on the Mac “seems” to work: I can activate it, and the DB is indeed copied in /Mobile Documents… I have the Mac version, and the iPhone version.
