HT203097 Sync windows live contacts and iphone 5s

Please help. I am unable to synch my window live contacts (2012 version) with my new iPhone 5s 16G with iOS 8.1.2. Only two of the 70 or so contacts come across.
Thinking something might be off on the MS side, I exported all the contacts to CSV, removed all duplicates and issues, deleted the original contacts in the windows live contact section, and then reimported the updated CSV file.
However, after attempting this, no luck. Again, only two contacts came across - one of which is no longer in MS Live Contacts.
I have not been able to find any thing on this point in the apple help. The MS help was for older versions. And the only online forum I saw with this topic was forum techguy and he said it could not be done.
Please give advise on how to proceed.

Hi Carolyn F,
I'm sorry to hear you are having issues with the contact sync on your iPhone. I also apologize, I'm a bit unclear on the exact configuration you currently have set up on the Windows side, but if you are able to get your contacts into Microsoft Outlook, you may find the option outlined in the following article helpful:

Is PS Elements 12.0 compatible with Windows 7 and Windows Live Mail??

Is the Organize/eMail part of Elements 12.0 compatible with my Windows 7 and Windows Live Mail? I have never been able to make it work with my Elements 9.0 after many hours of trying. The problem is acknowledged by Adobe and a solution offered but the solution does not work in any of my three Windows 7 computers. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Brian, Thank you for responding. I actually have two different questions on the same topic so I'll discuss them one at a time.
1. When I purchased a new Windows 7 computer several years ago I also purchased PSE 9.0 because I had been told my old PSE 4.0 would not work with W7. I didn't get around to installing it until last fall--PSE 4.0 was working fine on the XP machine and I didn't have the time. PSE 9.0 installed fine but I could not email a photo from the Organizer. I recently got interested in fixing the problem which has turned out to be more difficult than I could imagine. I found a lot of evidence on the web that to make it work with W7/Windows Live Mail you needed to make some patches in the registry. I tried to follow the Adobe instruction a number of times but when I got down to: " 4. On your desktop, double-click SetDefaultEmailClient.reg. If prompted, click Continue. Click Yes on the Registry Editor confirmation prompt." it would not work. Double clicking would bring up the browser with some register-like statements: [Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Microsoft Internet Mail Message] [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Microsoft Internet Mail Message\shell] [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Microsoft Internet Mail Message\shell\open] [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Microsoft Internet Mail Message\shell\open\command] @="C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Windows Live\\Mail\\wlmail.exe /mailurl:%1" ]. I did not get a "Continue" to click on or a "Yes on the Registry Editor confirmation prompt". I got nothing to take action on that might cause the registry to be updated with the specified patches. I'm no expert on modifying the registry and this is beyond my understanding. It just didn't do what it implied it would and I'm lost. I've tried in on my WLM 2011 computer and on my brand new W7 notebook computer with WLM 2012. I tried it using my normal browser, Firefox, and using Internet Explorer.
PSE 9.0 does indeed show Windows Live Mail as an option under Edit/Preferences/Sharing and I have selected it. When I try to share a photo via email all seems to go normally to the end when I get the message: "Elements Organizer could not finish creating your E-mail message." And, that is really not very helpful. When I Google on that "Elements Organizer could not finish creating your E-mail message" I find that I'm far from being the only one with this problem and people with PSE 8.0, PSE 10.0 and PSE 11.0 have reported the problem. I've found no way to communicate with Adobe and even their main support number, 800-883-6687, comes on with a message "this number is temporarily unavailable"!! I've called over 50 times over several days. That seems quite unusual. It seems like selling a software product that is incompatible with one of the most popular Microsoft operating systems and email clients would not be a good thing. Sorry for all the words but I wanted to define the situation as well as I can.
2. Given all of the time I've I spent without solving the problem it seemed tossing my PSE 9.0 and switching to PSE 12.0 might have been a smart move many months ago. And, I'm considering it now. That is why I really would like to get some assurance from Adobe that the problem is fixed and that I will have no problems with PSE 12.0, at least with emailing from the Organizer. The news that it is working for you is encouraging and I hope others will report on the luck they have had. You say it works better with WLM 2012 than with WLM 2011 but I don't know what that means. It seems that the minimum requirement is that any time you want to send a photo via email, it works!
If anyone knows how you can contact Adobe, by phone or email, please let me know.
Thank you very much, Brian.

After attempting to sync my iphone contacts with my windows live contact i now have no contacts showing on my iphone

i was messing about with my itunes contacts and attempted to sync all my windows live contacts with my iphone, i dont know what setting i have changed but i now have no contacts showing on my iphone, i have tried to restore my iphone but this failed.
Cheers for your Help!

The sync process for contact info and calendar events is a bidirectional or true sync process. You can't transfer only contact info and calendar events available on your iPhone only to the supported application on your computer. Contact info and calendar events available in the supported address book and calendar app on your computer and contact info and calendar events available on your iPhone will be synced so the info available on both is identical.
If you have a MM account, you need to sync the supported address book on your computer with your MM online address book first. After confirming your MM online address book matches the supported address book on your computer, follow this by enabling over the air syncing for contact info with your MM account on your iPhone. This will erase all existing contact info on your iPhone and replace it with your MM online address book info, and the same for calendar events.
If you have contact info available on your iPhone that is not available with the supported address book on your computer, you need to sync your iPhone's address book with the supported address book on your computer via the iTunes sync process first. Follow this by syncing the supported address book on your computer with your MM online address book. After confirming the supported address book on your computer matches your MM online address book, enable over the air syncing for contact info with your MM account on your iPhone. After this, your iPhone's address book will be kept synchronized with your MM online address book which is kept synchronized with the supported address book on your computer and vice-versa.

Link Windows LIve Contacts

Hello, I just upgraded my laptop to windows 8.1
Prior to upgrade I have an access database that linked (used as read only) my windows live contacts from outlook.
Now that I have upgraded and reinstalled everything I can no longer link the windows live contacts folder in my access database.
I do recall having to install a fix or add-in that allowed this but cannot locate.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you
Note: I can link standard contacts folder. Maybe there is a way to sync a standard contacts folder with windows live contacts.
not using business contact manager please

BTYahoo and Windows Live Mail

Hi,
I use BTYahoo online mail, and Windows Live Mail desktop client. I want to be able to sync my Windows Live Mail address book with BTYahoo mail. Is this possible?
Thanks
Dave.

Well I suppose the good news is that I am not the only person with this problem but it has made me think of a possible resolution.
Trying to follow this logically, I am not getting any problems with my android devices which connect wirelessly so I am not sure that it can be slow broadband connection or intermittent line problems bearing in mind that my PC is connected to the router by ethernet cable which should be better than wifi. It would therefore seem to be the way that Windows Live Mail is connecting, and on checking I see that the server settings are different. I have matched my PC to the Android settings and I will report back the results.
I can quite see if the server keeps dropping the connection for some reason or different servers settings are being used to access the emails then this might trigger the request for a new password.

Email links in Firefox 5.0 will not auto open in Outlook 2010 AND Windows Live Mail 2011

PSE9 and Windows Live Mail - Help

I am trying to send photos via "Share" email attachement and Windows Live Mail. I get to the part where you are supposed to be sent to WLM, and then it comes up with the error message "Elements Organizer could not finish creating your e-mail message. Alternately, you can use Adobe E-mail Service via the Elements organizer preference dialog." WLM has been selected as the mail server in the preferences section of Elements, and also in Windows 7.
I don't want to send mail through Adobe E-mail Service, but I did try that. I get to the same spot, and the entire program crashes.
Furstrated!

Adobe have had problems with the Windows 7 email client ever since they issued a patch for PSE8.
Furthermore it will not work with 64 bit editions of Outlook, to the disappointment of many but you would think they would have sorted out Live Mail before launching PSE9. The product help screens are entirely misleading.
Both PSE8 and PSE9 are said to be Windows 7 compatible, but in reality they aren’t. Even after downloading the patch Adobe customers are still reporting problems.
If you are using a purchased copy of PSE9, rather than the trial I would suggest you raise a ticket with the support team and claim your entitlement to help with a solution.

Just 'upgraded' to Windows Phone 7, now my contacts can't synch from the PC, and Windows Live has a 500KB limit? Is there a way around this nightmare??

For years I was happily plugging in my Palm Treo Pro, and having my contacts and calendar synch with my PC, WITHOUT the need for that information to be stored on the cloud, where anyone could get at it. When that died recently, I bought a used Windows 7
phone.
So far, it sucks. And it's not the phone that's the problem.
My main issue is that I have diligently exported my (over 5000) contacts from Outlook as a CSV file, and went to import them into Windows Live, only to discover that there's a 500KB limit. That's somewhere around 500 contacts.
ARE YOU SERIOUS?!? You really need me to set up 10 different files, to import stuff onto the cloud?
Please tell me there is a way around this limit, or (better yet) a way to synch directly with my PC, so I can avoid this whole Windows Live disaster?? I want to use Outlook. It's a Microsoft product!
Please help!

Hi,
I'm not sure about the Microsoft Account Contact limit, for this issue, you may post the question to Microsoft Community:
http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/outlook_com
If you still have the contacts in your Outlook Client, I suggest you setup the Microsoft Account(Windows Live) in Outlook via Exchange ActiveSync, then move the contacts to the contacts folder of the Microsoft Account, let it sync, then all will be done,
you don't have to export and import the .csv file any more.

Syncing iPhone Contacts with Windows Contacts and Windows Live Mail Contacts (Windows 7)

Please see the following graphic in which I have attempted to depict this situation from what I have been able to find, and please refer to the following thread (third post) for further details:
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3728606

Allan Sampson wrote:
Microsoft copied Google and now supports accessing a Hotmail or Windows Live Mail account as an Exchange account with the iPhone's Mail app. This provides Push access for received messages and for syncing contacts and calendar events over the air with the account on your iPhone.
For syncing calendar events direct with an application on your computer via the iTunes sync process, you need Outlook 2003, 2007, or 2010.
I understand your second statement about the needing Outlook - but I'm trying to reconcile it with your first paragraph - there is support for calendar events over the air between Windows Live and iPhone? So it can be done, just not physically through syncing via iTunes?

PC Suite and Windows Live Mail desktop

What version of Windows is being used?
Vista Ultimate 32bit
What Service Pack is installed?
Windows Upedate autoupdate costantly my system, so...
What version of PC Suite is installed?
6.84.10.3
What is the connection method, cable, bluetooth or IR?
USB Cable
Now, PC Suite synchronize my contacts with Windows Address Book, but there is now way to synchronize my Windows Live Mail desktop contacts (that are suprisling in another databse). So, I should synch with PC Suite, then import in Windows Live Mail desktop the Windows Address Book.
Its quite annoying, isn't? There is no way to solve this problem? I cannot use windows Mail, because I should connect to several hotmail accounts that are supported only in Windows Live Mail desktop.
Thanks

Windows Live contacts problem

Hi,
I have a Nokia N73 and I wanted to update my Windows Live application (Menu --> Applications --> Download!). The download and the installation succeed, untill Windows Live is synchronizing my contacts. It starts at 3 %, then 10 % and then I have to wait for a minute of 10 and finally it says: 100 %.
So Windows Live (1.0.9000) didn't synchronize my contacts, because when I'm signed in, 0 contacts are online and 0 contacts are offline...
Strange, isn't it? How to fix this?

BIS is basically just another email client...it polls your email sever for things that need to come to the BB and pushes those to the BB. If you have another email client running (e.g., Outlook) and configure it to delete messages from the server when it does it's Send/Receive, then those messages won't be on the server for BIS to retrieve and push to your BB. It's basically a timing thing...BIS polls (per documentation) every 15 minutes. If you have your Outlook getting mail every 5 minutes, then there would be 10 minutes worth of emails that Outlook would have removed before BIS could get them and bring them to your BB. You need to configure Outlook so that emails are on the server when BIS makes it's attempt...many have found that using the setting in Outlook (or other email clients) to leave messages on the server for 1 day to be sufficient. Many email providers, however, impose restrictions on how long you can leave things on the server...you'd need to check with them to make sure you are in compliance.
Hope that helps!
