Sync iPhone to Google Contacts?

Can you use Google Sync to get all of your iPhone contacts into Google? All my updated contacts are on iPhone/Outlook. If I use Google Sync will it send the contacts on my iPhone to Google, or will it sync my extremely limited Google contacts to the iPhone and erase the other contacts?

You have your updated contacts in your outlook, correct? Then you can export all your contacts to CSV ( windows) file. In you google/ gmail account, you import the csv file you created. It will appear as contacts for your gmail. You don't have to use iTunes. Go directly to iphone, setting mail, contact and calendar with google/gmail account. Follow this setup: http://www.google.com/support/mobile/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=138740
My suggestion: to delete all your contacts in your iphone, and forget for syncing with outlook. Contacts will always be updated in both sides. Without ITunes, and outlook.
If you still need updated contacts in outlook, do export/ import in CSV file from gmail to outlook.
Hope it will solve.

    Its a easy fix,it will take too much time to type out all of the steps,
    Check your email account. see if they are their, You can then import them on your DAV card, The best thing to is add them to icoud then they will be safe.
    Apple support can talk you through it.

    I figured it out! Trying to delete this now....

    Deselect this option under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes followed by selecting Apply. Bookmarks will no longer be synced between the two.

  • How can I sync my contacts from the iPhone to google contacts while checking for duplicates?

    I have been using Outlook to sync contacts and it works well.  Now I would like to get rid of Outlook and put the contacts that I have into my gmail and Yahoo contact accounts and keep all 3 in sync.  When I do it the first time, I'd like to be able to check for duplicates.  Is there a way to do this?

    If you want your contacts to remain in sync across iOS devices, then you can use any Exchange-type of account.  For example, once you have a "clean" set of contacts with no duplicates, you could upload that into iCloud so that any change you make from your iPad would be reflected on your iPhone.  You don't have to use iCloud for e-mail since your devices can pull a contact from iCloud for use with GMail or Yahoo.
    But you can also set GMail up as an Exchange account if you don't want to use iCloud.  The GMail account type in iOS is not Exchange, but you can set it up that way:
    http://support.google.com/mobile/bin/answer.py?l=en&topic=14252&answer=138740
    The benefit of doing this is (a) your Google contacts remain in sync across all your devices, and (b) your GMail will then support Push notification.  Just one caveat, when you do this then the default behavior when you delete an e-mail is such that it is archived to your "All Mail" folder in GMail.  The only way to change this behavior is to use your device's Safari to navigate to m.google.com/sync and change the setting on Google's server for each of your devices.  This is a one-time thing, but important if you want trashed e-mails to really go to Trash.
    As far as Contact Management Software options to clean things up, Google search is the only recommendation I have

  • Syncing Exchange with Google contacts

    I would like to be able to sync my Exchange contacts and my Google Contacts, so they always match. (Explanation: I am using Google Contacts on webmail and Exchange contacts on Exchange, in Mavericks general and on iOS). I can acces both via the Adress Book, so it should be a matter of a small program capable of syncing the two. Alternately just a program that can one way sync from Exchange to Google as I am doing the updating of the contacts on Exchange. Does anyone know of a program or a way to do this?

    I'm pretty new to this whole calendar thing, and I would like to know what are the differences between setting up a Exchange or CalDev account to sync with your Google calendar. Thanks.

  • Syncing iPad with Google Contacts

    I have my iPad syncing to Google contacts, which works fine. But I went into Contacts on my iPad and added pictures to a lot of my contacts. When I synced my iPad, most of them disappeared. How do I prevent this from happening?

    Thanks Meg, this works, at least in part.  Now the Contacts app populated, but only with 99 contacts, hardly all of them.  Do you know how to get all my Google contacts to sync?
    Also, should I delete the Gmail account I had previously set up on the iPad now that I have set up as an Exchange account?

  • How do U SYNC iPhone 2 Outlook Contacts (S P E C I F I C   F O L D E R.pst)

    Yeah you can sync your iPhone to Outlook! But I don't want 14,000 outlook contacts on my iphone. I want to create a separate "outlook.pst" folder to sync to. Is this possible or impossible?

    I think you can copy contacts you need to new pst and create new outlook profile that will be used for sync with this pst as default contacts storage and choose this profile when sync. The main drawback of this solution is to impossible to work with main outlook profile when sync that outlook can use only one profile in a time. This can be solved by starting outlook or itunes from another os user.
    Other way - to use 3d party software or services for sync contacts, much services have functions to sync selected groups of contacts then you can create special group and add contacts you need to sync in it.

  • Sync problem with Google Contacts

    My google contacts are not syncing since late Feb. 2014.  I am now running KitKat and still contacts aren't syncing.  Calendar and all other Gmail items are syncing well.  Have tried hard reset, removed and reinstalled Gmail account.  Turned off sync and restarted sync.  Tried with pulling battery and restarting all the previous.  Nothing seems to work.  HELP!?!?!?!

    Yes, on my desktop, my Google Contacts are perfect when viewing in my browser.  Also, I have no problem exporting all my contacts to my desktop as a Google "cvs" file.  However, when I sent the cvs file to my Samsung S4, the contacts app would not allow it to be imported.  Apparently on the S4 the format is not acceptable.
    The sync function on my S4 is working for all Google features (like Gmail and Calendar as well as all else) except for syncing contacts.  I've removed the Goggle account and re-installed it.  I've unchecked sync, cleared cache and data and just about anything any of the techies have proposed and then re-checked sync for contacts and I have been getting the same error message "Sync is currently experiencing problems. It will be back shortly."  Same message since late February of this year.
    I have spent in excess of 6 hours speaking with various Verizon tech support people and I have as well as with Google Android support.  Google tells me that they see no problems and it's a Verizon issue.  Meanwhile Verizon tells me the phone is working fine and it's a Google hiccup and I should have Google fix it.  Seems nobody is taking responsibility.
    I have a tough time understanding how Verizon can continue to charge me for a service which they are not providing.  I'm hurt being their long time customer and they seem not to care.  Quite a disappointment.  My renewal is in another 11 months and I'm stuck with a defective product for which nobody is taking responsibility!

  • Address Book not Syncing to my Google Contacts?

    In the pref. of Address Book I have selected synchronized with Google. As I make changes (either way) neither my Google contacts update or my address book entries.
    What is the issue - am I missing something?

    Quick update:
    Just learned that I can remove that icon clicking on it while pressing the Command Key
    But still, if anyone knows how to solve the issue of the missing iSync app, it would be of great help.

  • How do I sync iPhone and Mac contacts (without using icloud)?

    Hi,
    The option to directly sync my iphone contacts with my Mac's seem to have disappeared from iTunes. Given that I haven't (and don't want to) upload my contacts to apple's icloud servers, how can I do a simple synchronization?
    Thanks,
    MIke

    I believe it is. I'm not a Mac user, but if you were to search the forum, there have been a number of threads regarding Mavericks and syncing, so a search of those terms will more than likely yield results that discuss the server information. I remember reading information, but since it did not pertain to me, I did not retain enough.

  • Just synced iPhone and SOME contacts gone from phone, still in address book

    I just synced my iPhone for the first time in a couple weeks. The software is up to date, as is iTunes...
    Anyhow, I noticed some of my contacts had disappeared when I looked in my SMS messages and a lot of them just had numbers where names used to be. Checked my contacts and a lot of contacts are missing.
    They are still in my address book on my mac, and I have the correct folders checked so they should sync, but it is not doing so.
    Photos, calendars, music/vid sync as normal.
    What is going on? This is VERY annoying.
    Thank you.

    ShamRockNRoll,
    Have you noticed if it's a specific group that is not syncing correctly, or is it random contacts from all groups? If it's just a specific group, you may need to delete that group in Address Book and recreate it.
    If it's random contacts from all groups and if all of the contacts you want on the iPhone are in Address Book, you can just select "Contacts" from the Advanced section down at the bottom of the Info tab. That will replace all contacts on the iPhone with those that you have selected to sync from Address Book.
    Hope this helps,
    Jennifer B.

  • Syncing iPhone calendars and contacts to iCloud

    I cannot get all of my calendar events or contacts that I add to my iPhone to save to iCloud.  Is this a limitation on iCloud?  I am on my phone much more than on iCloud, and I add contacts and calendar events 99% of the time to my iPhone, not to iCloud.  The strange thing is, I know there is at least some syncing going on.  I can see all my calendar events on my iPad (but not iCloud) but not all of my contacts on both the iPad and iCloud.  What am I doing wrong? 

    Hi
    I would say yes.  I have been running it since it came out, on both my Macbook pros, and my iMac.  On my main macbook, I run parallels vm, and windows 7 on top with a whole load of programs that are only windows based.  On the ML side, I run office for Mac, and various other work related applications.
    I can honestly say that I have not had any problems running this on any of my machines.  If anything, I would say everything works slightly cleaner.
    The iCLoud functions really well, and syncing iPad, iPhone etc works seemlessly, for calendar, contacts, and photos (that is all I use it for).
    I did not have to tweek anything really to get like this, it all worked right out of the box.
    Hope that helps

  • Sync issue with google contacts.

    Just noticed that my contacts had not updated since Jan 2010. After conferring with Motorola did a factory reset. Put everything back in. Contacts were good for a couple of days. Now getting a message problem with sync. However gmail, calendar, facebook and picsa are syncing fine. Just the contacts.
    Anyone got any suggestions. I have had the phone since before January without any other issues.
    No apps that should interfere with process.

    What is the difference. When I click on Contacts it shows the same as My Contacts except that My Contacts shows the groups broken down. Contacts lists alphabetically with the groups to the right and My Contacts lists the groups under it with the contact listings to the right.
