Follow the steps below to setup Google Sync on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch.
Requirements and Backing Up Data
1.Google Sync is only supported on Apple iOS versions 3.0 and above. You can check your current version by going to Settings > General > About > Version.
2. Perform a sync with iTunes to ensure that Contacts and Calendars from your iOS device are backed up to your computer. Learn more about backing up your Contacts and Calendars.
3. If your business, school, or organization uses Google Apps, your administrator will first need to enable Google Sync before you can take advantage of this feature. Note that if you enable Google Sync, your administrator may also have additional remote management capabilities (such as remote wipe or password requirements). Click to learn more or contact your administrator.
Getting Started
1. Open the Settings application on your device’s home screen.
2. Open Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
3. Press Add Account….
4. Select Microsoft Exchange. iOS 4.0+ allows multiple Exchange accounts. However, if you’re on a device that doesn’t let you add a second account, you could also use CalDAV to sync Google Calendar and IMAPto sync Gmail.
Enter Account Info
5. In the Email field, enter your full Google Account email address. If you use an @googlemail.com address, you may see an “Unable to verify certificate” warning when you proceed to the next step.

12. Select the Google services (Mail, Calendar, and Contacts) you want to sync. To receive and respond to meeting requests on your device, both Mail and Calendar need to be turned on, and New Invitationsneeds to be enabled in your Google Calendar settings.
To enable New Invitations, sign in to your Google Calendar using the web browser on your phone or computer. Go to Calendar Settings > Calendars > Click on the Notifications for the calendar you want to sync. Under Email check New Invitations (and any of the other Invitation settings you want enabled), and click Save.
13. Unless you want to delete all the existing Contacts and Calendars on your phone, select the Keep on my iPhone (or iPad or iPod touch) option when prompted. This will also allow you to keep syncing with your computer via iTunes.
If you want to sync only the My Contacts group, you must choose to Delete Existing Contacts during the Google Sync install when prompted. If you choose to keep existing contacts, it will sync the contents of theAll Contacts group instead. If there are no contacts on your phone, the latter will happen — the contents of your All Contacts group will be synced.
You’ve set up Google Sync! Synchronization will begin automatically if you have Push enabled on your device. You can also open the Mail, Calendar, or Contacts app and wait a few seconds to start a sync.

Facebook iPad App Preview Leaked
Posted: July 26, 2011 in Apple Computers, Mobile and Tablet Apps, Social Networks, Tablet PCsTags: Facebook, for, How, install, ipad, Leaked, To
Facebook has blocked access to downloading the app but for now the screen shots will show you what you can expect!
Hacker Marvin Bernal discovered and shared a hack on Twitter to allow users to use Facebook for iPad. TechCrunch confirmed with a source who had previously seen the app that it is the iPad app that the company plans on launching.
The app has full access to the Facebook API, integrated Facebook Chat and video chat is on it’s way!
Check out the screen shots below (click to enlarge photos).
1 - Jailbreak your iPad
If you are already jailbroken great if not follow the instructions below for your version of iOS.
Note: 4.3.4, 4.3.5 and iOS Beta 5 is currently not fully supported and the method below requires iOS 4 and above.
- iOS 4.3.3 (Redsnow) (Jailbreakme.com use for iPad 2)
- iOS 4.3.2 (Redsnow)
- iOS 4.2.1 (Redsnow)
- iOS 4.1 (Redsnow | Limra1n)
- iOS 4.0.2 (Redsnow)
- iOS 4.0.1 (Redsnow | Jailbreakme.com)
- iOS 4.o (Jailbreakme.com)
2 – Install OpenSSH in Cydia
Next, you need to install OpenSSH – a Cydia package. Search for “OpenSSH” in Cydia, and download and install the package.
3 - Install Fugu, and get connected
Download Fugu here and install. Ensure that both your iPad and computer are connected to the same Wi-Fi network. Once the software has downloaded and installed, launch Fugu on your computer.
4 – Enter your iPad’s I.P. address, and log-in information
In Fugu, enter your iPad’s I.P. address (in the “Connect to” text field – you can find this via a Google Search in Safari for iOS), along with a username (which will be “root”). Now, hit “Connect” and then enter your root password, which – unless you’ve changed it – will be “alpine.”
5 – Go to var/mobile/Applications
Hit “Go To” in the toolbar section of Fugu, and enter “var/mobile/Applications.” Ensure that you’ve selected “Remotely,” and then hit “Go.”
6 – Find the Facebook iPhone app
Next, a list of applications will be shown. It’s a little difficult to figure out which is which, however the “date modified” can help. If Facebook was the last app you transferred over to your iPad, it’ll be the most recently modified. To confirm this, double-click the folder and within it, you’ll find another folder displaying the application’s name (“Facebook.app”).
7 – Modify the Facebook.app
Once you’ve managed to locate the Facebook.app, open the “Facebook.app” folder and and drag open the “Info.plist” file. Here, find “UIDeviceFamily” and change the number alongside it from “one” to “two.”
8 – That’s it, you’re done!
In changing the aforementioned value to a “two,” you’ve switched the Facebook iPhone app over to the native Facebook for iPad application. If you have any questions, feel free to post them in the comments.

Apple iOS 5 Beta 3 Now Available For Developers Using iPhone, iPad or iPhone
Posted: July 11, 2011 in Apple Computers, Mobile and Tablet Apps, Mobile Phones, Tablet PCsTags: 5, apple, Available, developers, for, i, Ios5, ipad, iPhone, iphone4, Now, os, releases, using
Build 9a5259f AKA iOS 5 Beta 3 was released to developers today which is the newest iOS version for iPad, iPhone and iPod and brings a few changes and fixes to the table.
- Push and local notifications for apps appear in the new Notification Center in iOS 5. Notification Center displays notifications that are considered “unread”. In order to accommodate push and local notifications that have no “unread” status, developers can use their application badge count to trigger a clearing of notifications from Notification Center. When an application clears its badge count (by setting it to zero), iOS 5 will clear its notifications from Notification Center.
- iMessage beta 3 will be unable to communicate with iMessage users on beta 1. It works between beta 3 and beta 2
- Modal alerts don’t appear for iMessages.
- When tweeting your location from Safari and exiting before the location can be established, the location arrow will stay in the status bar. The arrow can be removed by killing Safari from the task switcher.
- Fixed: The Reminders application does not send notifications for reminders that are based upon the entry (and/or exit) of a location if there is no date associated with the reminder.
- In this beta the option of “Choosing a security question” is not working during an iCloud account setup.
- Fixed: After creating a recurring event locally on the device, the device stops syncing after hitting an error on merge. Removing and re-adding the account acts as a workaround for this.
- Restoring from a Seed 1 backup or earlier will cause MobileMe/iCloud calendars not to sync. Subscribed calendars will show up in Calendars but none of your event calendars will appear in MobileCal. To work around the problem please remove and re-add the account.
