Can anyone tell me why my iCloud doesn't reconcile with my iPad and iPhone? I thought that if I updated on one, it would automatically update on the other. I updated a bunch of my contacts on the phone, but it hasn't translated to the iPad.

Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!
I'm having the same problem with my Safari bookmarks, Vortex, so maybe there is a problem with iCloud (it's worked for me fine before) or it's very slow or something. I actually spent significant time trying to fix it today, and thought it was okay, but now it is not again...
I just started reading a book on my Kindle Touch while eating dinner. I thought it would be complicated and scary, but it actually worked out really well! I could lay it on the table and then turn pages by tapping with my clean left hand. It was actually easier than reading a real book while eating!

When you say scary...
I mean extreme fear of getting it dirty and ruined and it malfunctions and explodes.
Don't feed it after midnight.
Yes, I can see how you might think that.
Vortex, on further experimentation, I can sync Pages so I don't know what the deal is. Have you looked at iCloud.com to see if your contacts are correct there? The only other thing I can think of is maybe a preference setting gone awry somewhere along the way - there are individual settings within the iCloud settings on each device that may have been accidentally swiped off.
Eta: and I tried editing a couple of contacts and it took a while for the changes to propagate through the various devices. Maybe half an hour, but I bet there's a lot of variance as to how quickly the syncing happens.
But I am making no progress with the bookmarks. Now I have two History folders on the iPhone and none of my regular bookmarks. Weird.
Wait until you try putting it inside a quart-sized freezer bag and reading in the tub. It's the best!
Whooooooa.
I'm sure they sell little Kindle stands, right? To prop it up and make it even easier to read while eating?
