Hi all

I have MobileMe and I have bookmarks set to on. However, new bookmarks I add on my iPad or desktop PC are never pushed to the iPhone. The only way to make the iPhone get new bookmarks is to turn bookmarks off, delete all iPhone bookmarks, and turn it back on again.

Does anyone know why bookmarks won't automatically sync, and how to fix it?

Many thanks

Michael.
 
Are you sure you have bookmark syncing turned on in your iPhone's email settings? I once restored my iPhone and went quite a while wondering why my bookmarks weren't syncing before realizing all my MobileMe syncing options and find my iPhone were turned off.

Same problem here too, didn't realize the check marks were off for certain things
 
Bookmark syncing is switched on bit it won't actually sync until switched off and turned back on again.
 
I've got the same issue as mrochester.

My has always been checked, but has never synched or updated based on any other computer using mobile.me
 
I've had this problem a few times. I just deleted and recreated the account in Settings and it fixed it.
