  • I want to sync my iCloud Address Book with my partner's iPhone 3GS

    My partner and I have two iPhone 3GS's. I have just spent a lot of time updating my iMAC's Address Book and got it to sync correctly with my iCloud account. Now I want to sync my Address Book with my partner's iCloud account. I have his account marked in my iMAC's Address Book Preferences, but it is not syncing. What to do?

  • Syncing Leopard iCal/ Address Book with a PC?

    I have a mac at home and a PC at work. Now that Leopard is here, is there an easy way to sync my contacts and calendars between the two? I am a .mac member but I doubt that will help me here.
    I've been reading a little about LDAP/CalDAV and I assume the answer may rest in those two solutions but the technical goes a little over my head. Are there any cheap or free LDAP/CalDav servers with which I can sync Address Book and iCal on my mac and then a program on the PC that will sync with the server?
    Right now I'm running Firefox and Lighting on the PC, but I would be open to other programs that may be better suited for this. I've been looking at something called Chandler which looks like it perhaps could be used as a bridge between the Mac & PC but I'm utterly clueless on how to make that work.
    I would also love to be able to sync Leopard notes and To Do's with the PC but I'll happily start with my contacts and calendars. One day at a time.

    Hi,
    as I had exactly the same problem, here is the best workable solution I found (in absence of any workable, cheap online solutions):
    If you have a Nokia Series 60 phone (e.g. N73 or N95), you can use the phone to perfectly sync contacts, calendar and to-dos. Just sync it via iSync with your Mac, then sync it via PC suite with Lotus Notes or Microsoft Outlook on your PC. There you go, everything's perfectly in sync.
    I'm still looking for a good solution to share calendars online with multiple users, as phpicalendar does not work any longer for me in Leopard. Hope that some free CalDAV servers are offered soon.

  • ITunes doesn't sync address book with contacts

    Syncing IPad2 with IMac address book doesn't update groups and contacts on IPad.

    If you're using Mobile Me, you can try this: On the iPhone, go to Settings > Mail, Contact, Calendars > Account Name. Turn OFF contacts syncing. The in iTunes on the computer, view the Info tab on the iPhone item page. You should now be able to check the Sync Address Book checkbox and then click the Sync button. This might work with non Mobile Me accounts too.

  • Sync *part of* address book with google contacts

    Within the Address Book I've seen it's possible to share contacts with a googlemail account.
    However, is it possible to share part of an address book (say, a group or a smart group)? I'd like to share some contacts with colleagues at work but I don't need to share all my personal contacts etc.
    All thoughts gratefully received.
    Edward

    Thanks Julian.
    I had not thought to click on the cell phone image/icon in the iSync window so as to be given the choice of Group folders to select to sync with my cell phone.
    Before posting here I used the online iSync Help and did not see it mentioned anywhere.
    It would be nice if Apple made this apparent by including a menu item in iSync that would take a user to that options window.

  • HT201250 Can I just restore my address book with Time Machine...

    or do I have to reload the entire back up? I recently wiped my drive and started from scratch and forgot to back up my address book  in the process. I do not want to start over with the entire process if at all possible.

    You can use only one drive at a time as a TM backup destination, though you can switch among as many drives as you like. They'll all back up the same set of files, unless you keep changing your exclusion list (which I wouldn't recommend.)

  • Need a real expert...I can't sync macbook air address book to iphone

    running 10.7.5
    1.  I have an Address Book in my MacbookAir Dock and it has a lot of contacts in it.
    2.  Tryed to sync them to my iphone going through normal steps and no contacts transfer to iphone.
    3.  Tried to do it manually...in MacbookAir I went to:    finder / home / application support / (BUT...no Address Book in there)
    4.  Went to a backup disc and found an Address Book file in Application Support of my backup....tried to copy it and a pop-up said I'm "not authorized" to make this copy.
    Any help would be appreciated...Ken

    modular747...I appreciate your help...but before I wrote my inquiry I did the 'normal syncing steps' and nothing happened.
    1.  Opened up my iTunes on my macbook.
    2.  Plugged my phone into my macbook.
    3.  In iTunes (on my Macbook):   Found my iphone/device in my iTunes on my macbook and clicked on it.
    4.  In iTunes (on my Macbook):   Clicked on Info in iTunes
    5.  In iTunes (on my Macbook):   Clicked on Sync Contacts....then clicked on Sync.
    6.  My macbook went through a short process like it downloaded contacts but when I open up contacts on my iPhone there are no contacts.
    These are the 'normal steps' that I had already done.....if I'm clueless let me know.
    Thanks....Ken

  • Syncing address book with iPad-2 and iPhone 4S.

    Since upgrading to IOS5.01 I have not been able to upload my address book to either my iPad-2 or iPhone 4S.
    Has anyone encountered this problem and successfully resolved it?

    Sorry, but I don't understand what "back end" (Exchange?) is.
    Yes, my mail and calendar appear to work just fine. (Slow when opening, but otherwise OK).

  • Why can't I sync my .mac address book with my address book on my imac?

    Ive read all the instructions made sure all my settings and preferences are correct, but my .mac contacts simply wont download into my contacts book on my .mac
    Very very frustrating!
    Please help!

    here's some more information from michael lafferty, a frequent contributor:
    "You also need to understand that now is not a particularly good time to be dealing with .Mac Sync issues, because server side changes have been made to accommodate the release of Mac OS X 10.5, and synchronization between Mac OS X 10.3 and any later version of Mac OS X is no longer supported. Substantial performance problems evident over the last few days have also made life difficult for many .Mac users.
    "And, now more than ever—despite the likely slower response due to these changes and the large numbers of those likely affected—you should work with a .Mac support representative to resolve your registration or connection issue before attempting to reset your synchronization data. You've got the right idea, but you cannot proceed until you are able to connect and exchange information is a session with .Mac.
    "To trigger a support request, fill out the web form on the lower part of this page. The status indicators at .Mac show that the synchronization update is still in progress, and that users may not see expected results."

  • How can I merge my iphone address book with contacts

    new 4s,
    I can't seem to find out how to merge the contact phone book on my phone with the contacts on my mac (email adress book) without doing it by hand.

    If you set up an icloud account, it will sync them both to each other.

  • Can't sync outlook 07 address book.

    When I try to sync my BB Curve with Outlook 07 it will not sync my adress book. I tried to configure the settings and it will not work. After you click finish and try to sync, the addrress book is unchecked, calendar, taskd and memo pad sync fine.
     I have tried updating software, I am runing desktop  software 6.0 and device software 5.01. Also my phone is losing contacts, and when I enter a new contact on the phone it puts it in 4 times. I am ready to drive over this phone with my car if i can't get it to work right! 

    Poolguy/Nicholas,
    Welcome to Apple Discussions.
    As a new/infrequent posters you are not aware that adding a question to another thread is known as thread-jacking and it is often counter-productive. It is best to start your own thread. That will get you a more focused answer and be easier to notice without detracting from the original question. In this case the question is over a month old and the only reason that I saw these two posts was because I was still subscribed to the topic.
    I would recommend that you reapply the Combo Update. Pay attention to the Important: Please read before installing section.
    Poolguy should use the Mac OS X Update 10.4.7 Combo PPC, and Nicholas should use the Mac OS X Update 10.4.7 Combo Intel
    Good Luck.

  • Synching desktop Address Book with my .Mac Address Book. Is it possible?

    Can i sync my desktop address book with my .Mac address book?
    Thanks.

    I am also having this problem with my address book synching to .Mac. But my calendar and bookmarks have appeared with no problem so I'm not doing anything wrong -and I haven't created custom profiles either. Do you really think this is due to the lead up to Mobile Me? If so, why did the bookmarks etc sync with no problem? It is frustrating because this is what I really need to access.

  • Syncing Mac Address Book with iCloud

    Hello, I am trying to sync my Mac Address Book with iCloud. All contacts that are created under iCloud on Mac Addess Book are immediately synced. But if I create a contact on the Mac book exclusively, that contact will not get synced with iCloud.
    Does it mean that if we want to sync Mac address book contacts with iCloud, they should always be created under the iCloud category on the Mac? Can someone help me with this. I have checked all sync options are switched "on" and sync is working fine across all other apps.
    Thanks,
    Farhan

    I believe the duplicate address books stems from the move from MobileMe to iCloud.
    In system preferences I found an iCloud icon and also a MobileMe icon. I was logged in under both.
    1)  In the Address Book preferences I selected iCloud and unchecked Enable this account.
    2)  In the Address Book I selected iCloud and clicked on the minus “-” to remove that account – leaving only the local Mac address book.
    3)  I went into system preferences and logged out of MobileMe
    4)  In system preferences I opened iCloud and the “Contacts” was not selected (from above) and I selected it.
    I got a dialog box asking if I wanted to merge the iCloud contact with the local contacts – clicked YES.
    … spinning wheel for a minute … voila – only one address book account – iCloud with syncing to iCloud and my iPhone.

  • Sync Address Book with Google Contacts

    Hi,
    recently I am syncing the Mac Address Book and my iPhone with Google Contacts.
    If I add a birthday to one of my contacts on my iPhone, the birthday also will be added on Google Contacts. If I sync my Mac Address Book with Google Contacts now, the birthday doesn't show up on my Mac Address Book.
    So my birthday calendar in iCal always is empty...
    Any solutions?
    Regards and thanks,
    Mike

    Hi,
    Google uses Google Sync to synchronize your contacts with your iOS and OS X. But this, from Jan 30, 2013, is only available to the paid versions of Google Apps (read more on http://support.google.com/a/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=2716936).
    You can continue to sync on both iOS and OS X using the CardDAV protocol, which, IMHO, is even better.
    Follow the instructions in this post: http://support.google.com/mail/answer/2753077?hl=en
    Mountain Lion Contacts also supports CardDAV accounts. All you need to do is add the CardDAV account with your account credentials and it will synchronize again.
    Hope this helps.
    Cheers,
    Ramses

  • Sync address book with two different google accounts

    Im trying to sync my address book with two separate google accounts. I understand how this works normally through mail preferences and have it working with my personal email account but my university's emails are through gmail as well and i wanted to sync the same address book with me other gmail account. Please help, any info is much appreciated!

    I've only found workarounds for this. It amazes me this isn't available, but I've seen a lot of chatter about this throughout the web. The best temporary solution is synching your iPhone with Google as an exchange server and then synchronizing that with your computer through iTunes. Assuming you have an iPhone.
