This has been bothering me all week and have only seen a few mention it online- here's the problem:
After upgrading to iOS 5/iCloud, my Safari bookmarks aren't syncing to Safari on my iPhone. Syncing is functional on iPad.
Devices:
iPhone 4
iPad2
both are updated to iOS 5
both are registered to the same iCloud account (formerly MobileMe)
Data is set to "Push" for iCloud account, with "Fetch" set to "Hourly"
Safari private browsing set to "Off"
Problem:
iPhone is not pulling bookmarks from iCloud. iPad has all desired bookmarks. Bookmark sync is turned on for both devices.
iPhone Safari shows two History bookmark folders, and standard issue bookmarks (Apple, Yahoo!, Google, iPad User Guide)
Attempts to edit bookmarks returns "Bookmarks are being synced. Please edit the bookmarks once syncing has completed"
Attempts to add bookmarks returns "Bookmarks are being synced. Please add the bookmark once syncing has completed"
Problem has persisted since launch day.
Failed attempts at resolution:
Reboot iPhone
Confirmed internet connection and access to secure websites on iPhone
Quit and relaunch Safari on iPhone.
Turn off bookmark sync on both iPad and iPhone, turn both back on
Delete iCloud account on iPhone, reinstall iCloud account
Any advice is appreciated!
