Syncing iphone contacts with iCloud does not work

I navigate to my iPhone 4 Settings and from there chose the option which is named iCloud
I turn OFF Contacts choosing to keep contacts on my iPhone and then turn it ON again.
I get prompted with the option to Merge my iPhone contacts with the ones I have on the iCloud already. I  click "Merge".
I wait until the iCloud service is turned on for my iPhone contacts.
Finally, I go back to the Contacts app on my iPhone and click Groups, which is there I assume because I have multiple email accounts linked to my iPhone. I refresh my contact list by clicking on the circular arrow in the top left corner of the screen on the iPhone.
Contacts I have recently added to my iPhone are NOT transferred to iCloud.
Why is this not working?

Go on system preferences / iCloud and check if Calendar is turned on.
Then take your iPhone 4 and go on Settings/iCloud and check if the Calendar is turned on.
If both are on with the same Apple ID, it should all go fine.
You can go on iCloud.com, logon with your Apple ID and click on the calendar to verify.

  • Synching contacts with Outlook does not work

    I have a Mac (with the contacts application), an iPhone and an iPad as well as an iCloud account. Synching contacts between all 4 of them works perfectly. However, synching contacts with Outlook 2011 does not work anymore. It used to, then I had some trouble with the synching with the iCloud (due to the fact that I had to change the Apple ID from the one I use for iTunes to the one I use for the Cloud), and since then contacts do not replicate with Outlook anymore. I can deactivate and reactivate the synching in Outlook as much as I want, no change.
    Any ideas? Thanks!

    So it sounds like you have contacts from multiple mail accounts syncing to/from your iPhone.  They will all appear there as long as their respective accounts are checked under contacts/groups(upper left of contact screen).
    As far as contacts created on the iPhone, if you select Outlook as your default account for contacts, all contacts created on the iPhone will sync with Outlook.  I'm assuming your Outlook syncs with an Exchange Server.
    You could connect the iPhone to iTunes and sync all of your contacts to say, a desktop version of Outlook.  You could then import that set of contacts into the Exchange version of Outlook.

  • Sync iphone contact with icloud

    I've entered new contact information on my iPhone, but those phone numbers are not appearing for that contact in the iCloud subfolder in Outlook.  What is the best way to sync contact information in Outlook so information on my iPhone is updated in my iCloud (in Outlook).

    The first thing to check is to go to icloud.com on your computer, then enter a new contact on your phone and see if it appears in your contacts on icloud.com.  Then do the same thing in Outlook.
    When you do this, which is not syncing new contacts to icloud.com?

  • How do I sync iphone contacts with icloud AND gmail on PC without Outlook

    I own an iphone and ipad and use a PC.  I will eventually change the PC to a Mac but until then I would like to know that any new or edited contacts (on my iphone) are being backed up somwhere.  I  am using the icloud but my PC tells me I need Outlook.  I don't want to buy Outlook (knowing that I will eventually move to MAC).
    I paid extra storage for icloud thinking it was backing my photographs and contacts up but this isn't happening.   
    I currently have two copies of all my contacts (over 1000 of them) on my iphone and ipad and nothing showing on my PC.   My google account (which I like to think of as my 'main' place to store contacts) isn't being updated with changes on my iphone
    Please help

    Hmm.. Thank you for the response.
    Have you tried using the iPod with another user account or computer, to help narrow down whether the problem lies with the computer, account, or the iPod itself?
    Maybe try reformatting it, using the tools provided by Windows. Instructions on how to reformat your iPod can be found in this article.

  • My iPad and iPhone have the same syncing calendar but my Windows 7 PC with iCloud does not sync/show the same calendar...please help!

    My iPad and iPhone have the same syncing calendar but my Windows 7 PC with iCloud does not sync/show the same calendar...please help!

    iCloud will not sycn a calendar from an external source.  In order to use iCloud to sync it, you would have to move it to iCloud and stop using Google.  I know how to do that on a Mac, but I'm not sure how to do it on a PC.  If you're using Outlook, I suspect you export it as an .ics file to your desktop, then import it to the iCloud account in Outlook.  I'm sure you could use Google to find the specific steps.
    However, there's really no reason not to just use Google to sync your calendar across your devices.  Instead, just continue to use Goole calendar on all your devices and they should stay in sync.  Take a look at this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C0Jj0KFgbYI.

  • I got a iphone 5 but it does not work on my MacBook with Mac OSx 10.5.8  it says i need OSX 10.6.8 but it will not download because I need OSX 10.6 but it would load either. How do I get the older operating system to work with the IPhone5?

    You don't. Since you have an Intel Mac, buy a Mac OS X 10.6 DVD from the online Apple Store.

    I manage all of my email in Outlook, delete email and trash it however the update isn't reflected in the Cloud and\or Apple email.  I have to then open up Apple mail and delete again. 
    Then something is setup incorrectly, which version of OSX are you on, and is this an iCloud mail address (@mac, @me or @icloud)
    From your description of the issue I suspect that it is Outlook that is incorrectly setup.

  • Since upgrade to Windows 8.1, ICloud does not work

    Since upgrade to Windows 8.1, ICloud does not work.  I could click on buttons for Reminders, Notes, etc. and would take me into ICloud to share with other devices. No longer functions.

    Hi:
    I can't help you with why your PC won't upgrade to W8.1, but I can tell you that if you manage to get W8.1 to install, you won't be able to get the graphics to work anymore.
    There is no W8.1 driver for the graphics setup in your PC.
    So maybe it is a good thing that you can't get it to work.

    I went to the Audio store to see about getting a surround sound and the salesperson asked me why I wasn't using AirPlay, he said it was better than the Bluetooth, better quality. So I do have AirPlay on my Sony and I installed the app on my iPhone 5 but they can't find eachother.......when I try looking for my iPhone on my receiver it does not show it. The Sony display works through my TV, the set up screen is there but it says no devices found. Like I said, the Bluetooth finds the iPhone and works ok, but the AirPlay does not.....looking at the manuel it says that the AirPlay will recognize my device (iPhone 5) but it does not..........

    Normally, you just connect the monitor to the MacBook using a VGA adaptor that you can buy from an Apple Store.  Now try System Preferences > Displays > Detect Displays.  You should now be able to select a display mode for the monitor.  If it still doesn't work, then I'd check that everything is properly connected.  I've had problems with colours disappearing due to a faulty connection in the VGA adaptor.
