Address book not syncing with mobileme

I have just bought a new Mac Book Pro 15' and being new to Mac I'm stuck for sure. My mobile me account (which I have had for years) will  not sync the Address book. I'm worried if I sync my iphone or ipad I will loose everything.
Please help- what am I doing wrong - all the settings seem to be right .

I wish I had an answer for you. Typically it works just fine, but I noticed today some of my contacts were not syncing with my MacMini nor my iPhone, but my iPad my web-version of MobileMe appear to be synched. I think there is a problem with the system.

  • Address Book not syncing with Exchange 2007

    My address book on Snow Leopard has 4093 cards, but not all of them are showing up in my contacts folder in Outlook Web Access. My company uses Exchange 2007. This is strange as I originally populated my address book by syncing it with my cards on Outlook. Does anyone know what the problem might be?

  • Address Book not syncing with Google Apps

    so i thought this will be resolved after reinstalling 10.5.7 (i tried a lot of tweaks in the earlier installation to make this work) but it seems that even with a clean install it wouldnt work.
    address book authenticates with google but no updates are being sent or recieved.
    did anyone manage to get this working ? i have a feeling its not out of the box...

    Hi guys,
    I have a similiar problem. My address booked has synced correctly with google contacts since 2 years
    And suddenly it stopped syncing. Furthermore when I go to settings/acconts  I still find
    my "Local" account where i configured my google account, but now the right window is empty.
    There is no button to edit or show this account !!
    (I mentioned this after update to 10.6.8, but I'm not sure if it worked shortly before doing the update)
    What could be wrong ?
    Regards jb0815

  • Address Book not syncing with 9100 Pearl

    I have a new 9100 Pearl. I have it connected to Blackberry Desktop Manager on my Mac via USB. When I sync the address book it seems to sync OK and gives a message that the sync is complete, but the are no contacts actually transferred onto the Blackberry.
    I have the BB set to show all contacts and cannot think of any other settings that may need to be changed. Any ideas?
    I have just changed to the 9100 from a 9700 Bold and had no problems syncing my address book with that device from the same Mac.

    Maybe is some kind of filter on your device.
    You can verify if your device has the contacts
    Open your Desktop Manager for Mac connect your device go to Backup and there is an area there that is show you your device data or content verified if you has any data.
    If you has data on your phone then is the filter on your device address book
    Go to address book, press the menu key and go to filter, just be sure Business and Personal are not checked.

  • Address Book not syncing with one computer (through .mac)

    I'm having difficulty syncing one of my computers through .mac. My desktop seems to interact fine with the online account, but I can't get the AddressBook info from .mac onto my laptop. I have tried all the syc settings in System Preferences and in the preferences menu in Address Book and they all say that I should be syncing. Is there something I am missing? As far as I can tell, both computers have the same settings. I'm wanting to be able to use my ipod touch with either computer, (and to have both computers have the same info as each other) . . .
    Thanks for any help.

    I just upgraded to Leopard and am having the same problem. Everything is syncing fine except the AB. I still see all my contacts up on .mac thank goodness, but nothing is coming down to my computer. I hope that they don't just disappear up on .mac as well!!!

  • Macbook Air with Mac OS X Address book not syncing with iPhone 5s completely

    I have just started ICloud syncing of my macbook air address book and my iphone. Some seemingly random contacts are not being transferred down to the iphone. I can't figure this out. How do you make this work correctly?

    First of all, your post title refers to an iPhone 5S.  There is no such device being sold by Apple.
    Aside from that, it sounds like your contacts are in more than one account on your Mac.  In Contacts on your Mac, you might try clicking the button closest to the plus side in the lower left of the display to hopefully show your various accounts.  You might also check Contacts > Preferences > Accounts.

  • Address book not syncing with Office 365

    I use Office 365 as my primary work email. I have elected to sync my Office 365 address book with my MBA running 10.7.
    Most of the time it works OK, but I often get an error sign next to the Office 365 group in the Address Book. The error generally says "Address Book cannot save the contact <name> to the Exchange Server and gives me the option to Revert to Server or go Offline.
    If I elect to revert to server, the error goes away but sync still doesn't work. If I restart Address Book I get the same error with another contact.
    Is there a way to validate the entire address book rather than having to continually restart the Address Book app?

  • Why is my address book not Syncing with ipad / iphone..

    Seems to be syncing with icloud, however, no icloud account was setup, also, have no prefs for icloud as I'm running OS 10.6....
    Why can't I just sync the address book to the devices directly, btw, itunes 11 *****!
    Less intuative, functions dissappeared... OH DEAR OH DEAR!!!

    When you make changes in AB, quit Mail for the changes to be added to Mail's database file. Reopen Mail and try it.

  • Address book not syncing with gmail

    I had my address book syncing with Gmail but it no longer does. I make a change on my Mac and nothing happens in the cloud. I believe I have it configured properly (Synchronize with Google is selected in Preferences > Accounts and configured). Currently, the only account listed is 'On My Mac (Local)'.
    o What might be the problem?
    o how can I force a sync?
    TIA,
    David

    For me, a few days later is just started working so I assumed it was a temp glitch. I am however now having trouble with ical updating to google. Also, an ongoing issue I have is that google or apple duplicates my contacts. I go into google, delete dupes, and then a day or two later they are all back.
    If anyone can help with apple to google sync, it would be greatly appreciated. When I say help, I mean get it working reliably and consistently. From everything I have read, I have everything set up right but clearly something is wrong.

    Levi G B ... Also found another thread by Davidfromsurfside on 10/14/11 0703A with the same problem. I responded on his thread "I have the same problem. IOS5 on iPad1, iPad2 and iPhone4S all with iCloud on. Lion 10.7.2 installed on my MacBookPro and iCloud set up/on. Any new iCal entry on either iPad or on the iPhone ends up via iCloud on both iPads and iPhone. BUT NOT ON THE MacBookPro. And iCal entry on the MacBookPro does NOT GET SENT to iCloud.com or to either iPad or the iPhone. This is a huge problem for me because I do all my office scheduling on the iPad or iPhone but rely on the MakeBookPro to print out daily client lists. I REALLY need to get this fixed...it is causing major business issues. " No one so far has had a fix....  :(

  • Subscribed address book not synced to iPhone

    I shared my address book with my wife, and she subscribes to it. Unfortunately, the shared contacts do not make it to her iPhone during a sync. Any Ideas why?
    Also, what's the difference between subscribing to a mac address book and syncing using mobileme?
    Thanks!

    I also have this issue. My contacts sync fine from the computer to Mobileme, but the groups don't sync to the iphone. This leaves me with an empty "Groups" window as described by eltons. If I sync through itunes, with Mobileme contacts sync off on the iphone, the groups show up.
    Any ideas? Is this consistent with the original post?

  • Why does my address book not sync to iCloud?

    Why does my address book not sync to iCloud?

    I believe the duplicate address book accounts stems from the move from MobileMe to iCloud and both accounts still being active.
    This is how I merged the two address books:
    1) To make sure all the contacts are in both:
    a) I selected On My Mac account - clicked on any address - Command A to select all - drag the contacts to the iCloud account - answered OK to merge and resolve duplicates.
    b) same in reverse: select the iCloud account - click on an address - click Command A to select all - drag the contacts to the On My Mac account - answer OK to merge and resolve duplicates.
    In system preferences I found an iCloud icon and also a MobileMe icon. I was logged in under both.
    1)  In the Address Book preferences I selected iCloud and unchecked Enable this account.
    2)  In the Address Book I selected iCloud and clicked on the minus “-” to remove that account – leaving only the local Mac address book.
    3)  I went into system preferences and logged out of MobileMe
    4)  In system preferences I opened iCloud and the “Contacts” was not selected (from above) and I selected it.
    I got a dialog box asking if I wanted to merge the iCloud contact with the local contacts – clicked YES.
    … spinning wheel for a minute … voila – only one address book account – iCloud with syncing to iCloud and my iPhone.
