HT1296 Why don't all of my contacts from my iphone appear in my mac contacts?

I have synced my contacts through itunes, enabled 'the cloud', synced mail contacts, etc., and still there are a lot of contacts on my iphone that do not appear in the contacts on my mac. I'm running OS X 10.8.2 and my iphone is 6.0.1 (iphone 4s).

You can check for problems with the <b>places.sqlite</b> database file in the Firefox profile folder.

  • HT4910 when i back up my contacts from my iphone to icloud, any new contact that i added is not in icloud

    When i add new contacts to the phone, i go to setting - icloud - and then back up contacts. when i go in to my icloud accound via computer its not showing up, i have even tried backing up via wifi and cable connection. nothing.. any help please

    I assume by "email", you mean an email account such as Gmail, Yahoo or and exchange account.  To get these contacts in iCloud do the following:
    Go to Settings>iCloud, turn Contacts to Off, choose Delete from My iPhone when prompted (your iCloud contacts will still be in iCloud).
    Download the app My Contacts Backup.  (If you have more than 500 contacts to transfer from your email account you will need the “Pro” version.)  Use the app to back up the remaining contacts on your phone (from your email account) as a vCard attachment to an email that you send to yourself.  Confirm that you have received the email.
    Go to Settings>iCloud and turn Contacts back to On.
    Go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Account (in the Contacts section), and set this to iCloud.
    Go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars...tap the email account you are syncing these contacts with and turn off contacts syncing with with this account.  Otherwise you will end up with duplicate contacts on your phone.
    Open the My Contacts Backup email and tap the attachment to import the contacts from the email account back to your phone, and to iCloud.  All your contacts should now be in iCloud.

  • Why don't music purchases I make from my iPhone automatically show up in iTunes on my Mac anymore?

    Even though my Mac and my iPhone both use the same AppleID, music purchases from my iPhone no longer show up in iTunes anymore! When I click on "Check for available downloads" it says "All purchases have been downloaded for this AppleID". What gives?

    That setting will only apply to new purchases. To redownload your past music purchases click on your name towards the top right of the iTunes screen and then click Purchased on the popup
    You should (if they are still in the store) be able to redownload them from the screen that then shows.
    Or on the Store tab in Preferences tick the 'show iTunes in the cloud purchases' tickbox and any music that isn't currently downloaded should show in the Music part of your library with a cloud icon against it for redownloading - click the cloud icon to download it.
    Or connect your phone and do File > Devices > Transfer Purchases to copy them over from it.

  • Why don't tabs that are open on my iPhone appear in Show All Tabs on my MacBook Air?

    When I select Show All Tabs in Safari 8.0.3 on an early 2014 MacBook Air, I see the tabs that are open on my iPad but not those that are open on my iPhone 6. I recently updated the phone to iOS 8.2. All my devices are connected to my iCloud account and Safari is checked in my iCloud settings on the phone. So I don't understand why the phone's open tabs no longer appear in Show All Tabs on the MacBook Air. The iPad is an iPad 2 and it's still running iOS 8.1.3. Am I right in guessing there's a problem with the iOS 8.2 update?

  • Why don't changes I make to calendar on iPhone appear on iCal or iCloud calendar?

    Objective: make changes to calendar on iPhone (iOS 5.0.1), iPad (iOS 5.0.1), iCal (on MAC with 10.7.3) that automatically sync with each other through iCloud.
    I had a MobleMe account and moved to iCloud. However, when I make changes to my calendar on iPhone or iPad they do not appear in iCal on MAC or on iCloud calendar.
    As an aside, when I make changes to iCal or on iCloud they do appear on iPhone if I connect it to iTunes.
    Ive been searching through forums and trying different things all day & still can't figure it out.

  • Why can I airplay a YouTube video from my iPhone but not my Mac?

    It just seems a little retarrded that my phone is more advanced than my computer...
    (Yes, I just circumvented your word filer and i'll do it again biotch.)

    Not sure, but I think the fact that iPhone youtube vids are encoded in H.264 (as opposed to flash on most computers) has something to do with it.

  • HT4436 Why don't all my contacts and calendar events on my iMac (version 10.7.4) stream onto iCloud? For instance, there are 470 entries in my address book but only 270 on iCloud. And not all my appointments in iCal are transferred.

    I have the same problem transfering Address book on iMac to contacts on iPhone (old version 3G - on iCloud). this is a hard wired connection

    Might you have 200 entries in On My Mac groups and some of your appointments in On My Mac calendars?

    If your contacts are synced to your computer then they are in the supported app you are syncing with.
    When you set up syncing of contacts on your device, which application did you select? 

  • HT204150 im not sure why only a few of my contacts have been synced and not everyone? How do i sync all contacts from my iphone to my ipad? I have synced my phone with Itunes on my laptop.

    It's a good idea to backup your Mac Address Book application and iCal Calendars application from each application. This way you can go back and pull out items if you lose something. I do this everyday.

  • Why don't all the mailboxes illuminate when I'm trying to move/ save an email

    Why don't ALL mailboxes highlight when I'm trying to save something

    You can either leave it in the Inbox or move it to one of the non-greyed out folders. If you havn't got any non-greyed out ones then if your email account is an IMAP one then you should be able to login to your account on a browser and create new folders there, and they should then appears in the Mail app. If it's a POP type account then unfortunately you're stuck with what you've got.
    You can also, for example, copy-and-paste it into another app e.g. if it's plain text you could copy-and-paste it into Notes

  • HT1296 How can I get my contacts from my iPhone even though I don't have it ?

    I'm trying to get my contacts from my iPhone but I don't have my iPhone with me

    It might take a bit longer, but it's risk free:
    Use your iMac to send your contacts in an email to yourself
    Open them using your iphone.
    They should arrive as vcf format and you click to open it and hey presto!
    Also works the other way round, so when I receive an email from a new contact, I register it on my iphone and click on "share contact", sending it to me which I then open on my Powerbook.

  • When someone messages you from their iPhone or iPad, you receive the message to your iPhone (or iPad) but you don't know whether it is from their iPhone or iPad because all your iPhone sees is one contact. That needs to be updated.

    When someone messages you from their iPhone or iPad you receive the message to your iPhone or iPad but you don't know whether it is from their iPhone or their iPad. That needs to be updated.

    Why does it matter?
    It's the person who sent the message that is important, not which particular device they used to send it, surely?
    When someone calls you from their home landland, is it necessary to know whether they're calling you from the phone in the kitchen, or the one in the bedroom?

  • How can I remove all my outlook contacts from my iphone contacts

    Well, Thats was the first time I`ve used Icloud, so I don`t have much experience, and I just active Icloud on my devices and I dont know why all my outlook contacts went to my iphone contacts. How can I remove it on a easy way otherwise I would delete them one by one and that wont be nice, because are too many.
    Sincerely
    Pedro

    Depending how many contacts you started with and where they were from? were they on your sim card before? to remove ALL contact from an iPhone go to iTunes / info un-tick Sync Contacts and change Outlook to another addrss book that has nothing stored in it (ie. empty) sync your phone with that and that will leave your phone with no contacts. Next look for the backup where you had your previous contacts loaded (group) and re sync it to put them back. Chech iTunes when you plug in your phone that it doesn't sync immediately when you plug it in to eliminate future problems.
