Sync contacts between two account iCloud

Hi everyone,
Me and my wife both have iphone. We usually used just one iCloud account, so we had shared calendar, contacts etc. etc. which is very useful for us.
Since Siri has arrived it begun to create troubles with the contacts, because the contact marked as "me" is the same for both iphones, so on my iphone siri calls me with the name of my wife...
Now with the new "family" function with iOS 8 i can finally separate the iCloud accounts on our iphones, and still have the same apps, calendar etc. on both of them.
My problem is with the contacts, we would like to keep the same contacts on both iphones and synched, but i can't do that with the "family" function.
Anyone can suggest me a way to sync contacts between two account iCloud selecting which information to share?
Thanks

Thanks. You said: "When you setup iCloud the On my Mac contacts should've been moved to iCloud I think (can't remember what happened in my case)."
Actually that does not happen, or at least it didn't happen to me.

Sync Contacts between Exchange account and MobileMe account

On my iPad I use two different email accounts: one Exchange account with ActiveSync and one MobileMe account.
How can I consolidate or sync Contacts between the two accounts?
At least, I would like to be able to move contacts from my MobileMe account to my Exchange account. Is that possible?
Thanks in advance for any hints or advice.

You could each add the others iCloud to your devices as a secondary account in mail, contacts, calendars and just enable the services you wish to use.

Sync contacts from two accounts with Outlook 2013 in my PC

My wife and I both have an account with individual contact lists. I am using the icloud program on my win8 PC to sync the contacts with Outlook 2013. Can I set-up this tool to sync the contacts from both apple accounts ?

The sync process for contacts with a supported address book application on your computer is a bi-directional or true sync process, or should be.
If you use Outlook on your computer for contacts and your iPhone includes contacts before the first sync for this data, you will be provided a merge prompt with the first sync for this data, which you want to select. After the first sync and merge in this situation, the contacts between the two will be kept synchronized with following syncs or should be.

Sync contacts between two exchange accounts

I have one Exchange account to Lotus Notes and one to Gmail.
I would like two sync the two contact lists, to make sure all contacts are available if I log in to Lotus Notes on my computer or Gmail on a computer. Is it possible to make these sync to the same contact group on my Iphone?
Now all contacts are available on the phone, but they are not synced to each other.

How to Sync Contacts between two Iphones

My wife and I just got Iphones. We would like to create all our contacts on one Iphone or even somewhere else and then copy all of that info into the phone or phones. I have searched but can't seem to find how to do that. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Contact info is designed to be synced with a supported address book application on your computer. With Windows XP and Vista, this can be with Outlook 2003 or 2007 - which can be used for syncing calendar events also, or with the address book used by Outlook Express with XP, or with the address book used by Windows Mail with Vista - the name change for OE with Vista. I believe this address book is called Windows Contacts.
With a Mac, this can be with the Address Book app, or with the Entourage address book - Microsoft's equivalent for Outlook on a Mac.

Sync photos from two separate iCloud accounts

How do I sync photos from two separate iCloud accounts onto my PC?

Howdy Springcheer,
While this is not syncing per se, I'm wondering if iCloud Photo Sharing will do what you need to get photos from two separate iCloud accounts to your PC.

Please read the article. It may work for you.
Take care,

How to sync contacts between iCloud and Outlook without iCloud moving the contacts

Hi,
When synching Contacts between Outlook and iCloud, iCloud moves away the Outlook contacts from the default directory, to a newly created data file.
This issue already existed with MobileMe Calendar, and now seems to have been "adopted" for the Contacts as well in iCloud.
This causes me many issues, including synching the same data with other devices and other PC's.
Any work around?

Apples iCloud is not working with Outlook as it is making new folders isolated from the standard folder *.pst.
I have tested intensely and moved back to Google Sync (calendar) and iTunes (contacts, notes) as they sync properly with the standard folders in Outlook. Reminders sync still missing. Shame on Apple for delivering such a nonsens to us.

How do you sync contacts between an iPhone 5 and a MacBook Pro without iCloud?

How do you sync contacts between an iPhone 5 and a MacBook Pro, using OS X 10.9.2 and iTunes 11.1.5 without using iCloud?

I do NOT trust iCloud because it duplicated by contact book 4 to 5 times and blew up my records.
Lately I realized that my Contact Book contacts are not updated and having lesser records, and did a check. There are a lot of missing contacts, despite Synching.
I sync iPhone 5s (and iPhone 5) to Mac Contacts and I do NOT use CLOUD. Now it seems that it forces me to use CLOUD.
I don't want to use CLOUD because of the BAD experience.
I just realized that I cannot sync my iPhone 5s (&5) Contacts with Mac Contacts anymore, there is no even a button for Contacts on iTunes.
This is RIDICULOUS... Screw around someone, this company is doomed.

Syncing contacts between Mountain Lion and Snow Leopard?

One of my computers is running Mountain Lion, and the other is running Snow Leopard and so does not have access to iCloud. Is there any way to sync Contacts between the two computers?

    I am not sure why you can't access iCloud, using a browser? Then you have the same address book, so long as you are connected to the internet. https://www.icloud.com/
    No email involved. From the browser, you can download individual iCards or all of the individual cards, BUT unfortunately, not the Groups. So, you have to fiddle on the SL machine with keeping the groups organized.
    Up until recently, I have been able to sync Contacts from ML (which stays synced to iCloud) to SL this way: copy the /Users/~/Library/Application Support/AddressBook/ folder from the ML computer to the SL computer by dragging the icon onto the dock's AddressBook icon, this should retain all the group info. But, recently, this has ceased being complete.
    Apple really left us behind on this one.

TS4147 Duplicate contacts from two accounts

Hi, I have two accounts (iCloud and Gmail) setting to show contacts in my contacts, how can I merge both acounts into one clean list? and I prefer if that would be in Gmail since I use 2 phones with the same number (Galaxy S4 and iPhone 5), iOS7 on iPhone

You're probably syncing from two sources. Do the contacts show up as duplicated at icloud.com?
One of the most causes is syncing from both icloud and itunes.

That is because that sync ability (for contacts and calendars) has been removed. Use iCloud instead.

Using Lightroom Cloud to Sync Catalog Between Two Machines

I have use of so many cloud services including the 20gb that Adobe gives me. Is there a way i can sync my catalog on the cloud so that i can have all my metadata on both my laptop and desk top? I also have 300gb of cloud storage though Copy. I would just like some recomendations on how best to go about it. Thanks

Hi Pat,
Using Lightroom Cloud to Sync Catalog Between Two Machines
If you’re running Lightroom on a laptop during your location shoots, you might want to take all the edits, keywords, metadata, and of course the photos themselves, and add them to the Lightroom catalog on your studio computer. It’s easier than it sounds: basically, you choose which catalog to export from your laptop, then you take the folder it creates over to your studio computer and import it.
You need to decide whether you want to export a folder (all the imported photos from your shoot), or a collection (just your Picks from the shoot). In this case, we’ll go with a collection, so go to the Collections panel and click on the collection you want to merge with your main catalog back in your studio. (If you had chosen a folder, the only difference would be you’d go to the Folders panel and click on the folder from that shoot instead. Either way, all the metadata you added, and any edits you made in Lightroom, will still be transferred over to the other machine.)
Please refer to http://www.peachpit.com/articles/article.aspx?p=1930499 for more details.
Thanks!

What instructions?
In the source list click devices (so far so good) then click the entry for your iphone or ipod. that doesn't exist. HELP asap
You don't import photos from the iPhone to your computer using iTunes.
See this -> iOS: Importing personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer
Note this only applies to photos taken with the iPhone. Any photos you previously added to your iPhone using iTunes should be copied from old computer to new computer.
