IPhone no longer syncs with Outlook Contacts/Calendar

For months I was syncing with my computer at home for music and videos, then I bring my iPhone to work and sync my Outlook Contacts and Calendar.
Now, when I plug in my iPhone on my work computer, everything operates as it used to, it still says it's syncing contacts, then syncing the calendar, but after it's done, when I look at the calendar or contacts in my iPhone, nothing has changed. It's simply not syncing with Outlook anymore, even though the status bar at the top of iTunes says it is syncing.

It appears I have solved the issue myself and thought I would share the solution in case anyone runs into this problem.
In Outlook, I only have one profile. However, Outlook somehow had some settings changed where it prompted me for which profile I wanted to use each time I started Outlook (even though I only have one profile). Because it was prompting me to choose when I start Outlook, I am guessing that when iTunes tried to access Outlook, it was also prompting iTunes to choose which profile to use as well. Since iTunes didn't know which profile, it wasn't syncing properly (note, iTunes never asks you which profile you want to use).
To fix this, I went to the control panel, double clicked the mail icon, clicked the button that says "Show Profiles". I highlighted the only profile I have listed in the drop-down menu and checked the box that says "Always use this profile".
I then sync'd iTunes with my phone and the calendar and contacts finally updated!

  • Iphone 6 sometimes syncs with outlook 2010 calendar and sometimes it won't.  I manually sync to a laptop.

    How do I get my iphone 6 to sync with outlook 2010 calendars and contacts everytime?  I have the correct boxes checked in ITunes and sync to a laptop.

    I am using Outlook 2010.  I bought the Iphone 6 yesterday.  My contacts are syncing perfectly - I created a test contact in outlook and it synced to the phone.  However, my calendar is not syncing.
    I have tried
    Resetting the sync history
    Replacing all information on the phone

  • My iphone no longer syncs with outlook 2007

    My iphone suddenly no longer syncs with Outlook 2007.  I have checked the Outlook add-ins list.  I can find no solutions.  Apple phone support did not help, genius bar did nto help.  Any suggestions ??

    Is it everything that no longer syncs, or is it just one of the things, i.e. just calendar, contacts, notes? Many times as mentioned in the earlier post, it can be caused by a corrupt .pst file. Run the scanpst.exe application that resides in the Office folder. That will run a repair on the .pst file. Go into iTunes and reset the sync history and then try the sync again. If that doesn't help, it is possible there is a corrupt appointment in the calendar. That can cause a problem with syncing.
    Try those couple of hints and see if that helps. Come back if it doesn't and let us know some more specifics.

  • My iphone won't sync with Outlook contacts or calendar anymore.  Any idea how to do this now?

    I used to be able to sync my iphone contacts and calendar entries (home calendar) with outlook and now it won't work.  How can I fix this?

    Does iTunes Show an error message?
    How did you setup syncing with Outlook, are you syncing them via iTunes using USB or Wi-Fi or an Exchange server?
    For more info on USB syncing and all of the other options, take a look at this Apple doc -> iOS: How to transfer or sync content to your computer
    If you aren't sure try setting up USB syncing again, just connect the iPhone to the computer, open iTunes, click the Info tab across the top of the screen, scroll down to Contacts and choose to sync contacts.
    Contacts
    To sync contacts with your computer, choose  "Sync Contacts with" within iTunes for Windows, or "Sync Address Book Contacts" on your Mac.
    You can sync your contacts with:
    Microsoft Outlook 2003, Microsoft Outlook 2007, Microsoft Outlook 2010 (Windows XP, Windows Vista, or Windows 7)
    Windows Address Book (Windows XP)
    Windows Contacts (Windows Vista / Windows 7)
    Address Book (Mac OS X)
    Microsoft Entourage 2004, Microsoft Entourage 2008, or Microsoft Outlook 2011 for Mac
    Note:  If using Microsoft Entourage, use Microsoft Entourage 2008 12.1.2 or later  if syncing with Mac OS X v10.6 or later. If you would like to sync data on your Mac with Entourage, enable syncing between Entourage and Address Book.
    Notes:
    When syncing contacts, you can choose to sync all of your contacts or only selected groups. The option to sync selected items may not show up until after the first sync.
    You can select a group of contacts to which all new contacts created on your iOS device will be added.
    Additional options for syncing include syncing your contacts with Yahoo or Gmail/Google Mail.  You will need to configure it with the user name and password for your Yahoo or Google account.

  • Palm Treo no longer syncs with Outlook 2007 calendar

    Foolishly I upgarded to Office 2010 not realising that my Palm won't sync with Outlook 2010. I reverted back to Office 2007 but now my Treo won't sync with the calendar. All else appears okay. I get the following message:
    This handheld is associated with a differentprofile. To synchronize with that profile, close Outlook and synchronize again. To use this device with current Outlook profile, open the Hotsync custom dialogue and change the conduit settings to use this Outlook profile. See the Oultlook conduit help for details.
    The conduit settings only allow me to change which over-writes which - computer or Treo. When I chnage to get the computer to over-write (as this is where my up-to-date info is, the same message appears. I going to get an iPhone soon if I can't get help. This is crazy.
    Someone out there help...please.
    Post relates to: Treo 680 (Unlocked GSM)

    If I understand correctly, then the old Outlook 2003 is no longer available to you. If that's the case, then all of your information should have been taken from your local outlook 2003 and put into the new outlook 2007 exchange. The only way you can sync with exchange is by using EAS. You will need the server address, domain name, and the username/password you use to log into outlook. I expect you may not have some of this information, which is where your IT department will be able to fill in the blanks. You won't need to use the Treo for email, but now that outlook 2003 is gone, that isn't an option for your contacts/calendar/notes anymore. When setting up the EAS on your device, it will ask what you want to sync, and you can select/deselect the options you prefer.
    Hope this clarifies things a little bit.

  • Iphone no longer syncing with Outlook

    I have been syncing my Iphone5 to Outlook directly via USB with my PC laptop since the first iphone came out (2006?).  Over the years, this process has survived numerous operating system upgrades, hardware upgrades etc. As of yesterday, it is not syncing my calendar or contacts to Outlook.   (I get email from mail provider).
    I do not want to use the cloud as all my children back up to the icloud and I don't want all their contacts/calendar on my phone.  Maybe I am old fashioned, but I always like backing up with the USB guaranteed my PC data to my Iphone!
    What I have tried without luck:  (it says syncing, but changes nothing)
       - updated to latest version of Itunes
       - in itunes/ info --- click and unclick calendar/contact
       -  in itunes - reset sync log
       - restored an old iphone - would not sync either
       - ran SCANPST on my outlook file (was a bit of a mess) so created new PST file with only a few dates/contacts
       - in outlook - unselected all Add-ins.   then added back the Itunes add-in, iCloud and outlook change notifier
    Outlook 2010 version 14 (32-bit)

    HELP!!!

    I do not believe this. I have been going nuts trying everything as in prior posts, and this has been a problem for users at least since 2010. I had this problem a long time ago and didn't pay too much attention to it because it was my iPad, and I depended on my BB a a base calander to feed Outlook. I became very concerned within the past week when I switched my BB to iPhone 5s, and was carrying both because I still needed to carry the BB for new calander enteries to sync up to Outlook 2007.
    I had followed http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925 and delete the apple s/w and re-installed. But according to the previous post, it appears that the issue was in the data - which was not deleted during all these deinstalls nor overridden with the new installs.
    I am a XP user, so my files are in documents and settings/(username) both application data and \local settings\application data, but I also have safari and quicktime installed as well and didn't want to just blow entire high level folders if I didn't have to.
    So I followed http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925 then purged several apple folders in my windows profile and this definitely blew apple computer\preferences away. What I did was a little clumbsy, and desperate, but it worked. I am finally back in business.
    However, I would like to see someone fine tune this and determine if it was just the preferences folder that needed to be deleted so that iTunes needed to rebuild it, or if there were other filoes that were apparently corrupted away, just to get this to the minimum number of steps to fix the issue.
    BUT THANKS - This has been the most HELPFUL thread to get me syncing agai!!!!

  • IPhone no longer Syncs with Outlook

    Hi,
    Running Windows Vista Business on my Gateway Laptop. Updated to iTunes 7.7 since that was what I was asked to do as part of the V2.0 update on the iPhone. Updated to V7.7 of iTunes and then to V2.0 on my iPhone. Now my iPhone takes several minutes to sync and when it does it doesn't sync with the Outlook calendar. Checked the settings to make sure they haven't changed. Reinstalled iTunes "No Joy"!
    By the way, the sync problem was on the V1.1.4 iPhone software version as well. It seemed to start right after the iTunes update.
    Has anybody the same experience? Does reestablishing my email account under Microsoft Exchange address the issue?
    Anything else I can try?

    I'm having a similar prob: I entered an appt on to my phone. Synced this morning and the appt is not showing up on my PC calendar. One thing may be affecting and I have not tested is I am syncing mail by ActiveSync, but still want Calendar and contacts by cable. Maybe this is affecting, but it should not be. I had my Win Mobile device set-up this way and it synced fine.

  • HT1349 why is iphone 4s cannot 2 way sync with outlook contacts??

    why cannot iphone 4s 2way sync with outlook contacts? it says we have to use google calendar, i could not manage it but why we should pay so much money and have to sync pc and iphone contacts manualy..

    The sync process for contacts with a supported address book app on your computer is a bi-directional or true sync process, or should be. There is no setting to enable or disable this.

  • HT4191 Since 'upgrading' to ios6 notes no longer sync with outlook

    Why does Apple always make life harder everytime I let them upgrade IOS? Why don't I trust my intuition and stick with the IOS I've got used to? It took me a while to discover that Notes on iphones are associated for an inexplicable reason to an email account and that it defaulted to my gmail account. I then set it to default (for new notes) to an account called 'on my iphone'. Magically IOS 5 synced these notes to my Outlook. Perfect. I 'upgrade' to IOS 6 and Notes 'on my iphone' no longer sync with Outlook (quite apart from now finding the new itunes a nightmare to use).

  • IPhone 3G not Syncing with Outlook Calendar 2007

    Can anyone help, since updating iTunes to version 8.1.0.52 my iPhone will not sync with Outlook Calendar 2007.

  • Problems with Sync with Outlook contacts and calendar (Office 2007)

    I have been able to set up my Blackberry curve with email accounts, but sync with Outlook contacts fails. My device will show as connected, but nothing happens. I continue to get a message if I want to use Mass Storage mode on my phone and I assume this should be checked as yes, then I get a folder showing up on my desktop with "Removable Disk (E, which contains several files. 
    When Desktop Manager is opened I get message "Initial Plugin: Verifying Applications" "checking the status of the applications on the device. This is only required on the first connection of the device to a new desktop installation" It shows in the same dialog box "connecting to the device (JVM)...
    The connection hangs and nothing happens. I have reinstalled software and was even told by Verizon Support to exchange the phone (which I did), but the same issue of non-connection for sync is still there.
    Any help/suggestions are greatly appreciated. 

    iTunes thread found that sync issue was caused by reoccuring appointments,
    Basically you need to modify the reoccuring appointments (and may require to add an end date as this was how the guy made a modification) and then re-sync.
