Can i sync Iphone contacts to my macbook?
I have an iphone and I dont use my phonebook on my macbook much but it be great if I can sync my contacts from my phone to my computer. Is that possible???
Make sure you enter at least one unique contact (one that is not on your phone - make up an imaginary friend if necessary) in the Address Book on your Macbook before you sync, and choose the "merge" option when you sync. The contacts on your phone will sync to address book on your Macbook, and your imaginary friend will sync to your phone. You can delete him if you want.

Go to iCloud in System Preferences and make sure the appropriate box is checked. You also need to be signed in.

How can I sync my contacts from my macbook address book to my iphone
i have my contacts in my macbook (address book) and now i need that on my IPhone. can any one help
on your Mac, go to System Preferences > iCloud
Check you have the "contacts" box activated
on your iPhone, go to Settings > iCloud
Check if you have the same Apple ID you use on Mac (if not, please enter the same ID)
After that, activate the "contacts" on your iPhone too.
it is supposed to work -
Can't sync iPhone contact with iMac address book since Lion upgrade
iCal sync is fine. All the proper boxes in iTunes are checked. The iPhone is reconized in iTunes. Any suggestions?
Sorry I don't have an answer for you. I kind of doubt Apple has added a solution for that yet, since your Facebook account is not yet synced through iCloud; it is set up independantly on each device.
However I hope you can help me, I cannot figure out how to manually link contacts on my Mac; there is no Add Link button like there is on the phone... -
Can you sync iphone contacts with outlook two ways?
When I sync my iphone with outlook using itunes, one contact is not syncing. The initial sync went fine but subsequent syncs deleted one contact from the desk but left it on the phone. Is there a two-way sync setting I am missing?
Hey Mark
I'm Michael and I work for connex.io.
We were also constantly having problems with our address books, so we decided to build our own solution. connex.io is a service that syncs two-ways between all of your devices and services. It also de-duplicates, cleans completes and automatically updates your address books on all of those devices. So whenever you make a change on any of them, it automatically gets changed everywhere. So you only have to connect your address books once, and you will have your contacts always with you. No need to connect your device to your computer or sync manually.
If you want to check it out: www.connex.io or you can send me an e-mail if you would like some more info: [email protected]
I hope this helps you out.
Michael

Problem syncing iPhone contacts to new Macbook Pro
I have a new Macbook Pro - still getting it set up - and I just noticed that, of the several hundred contacts I have on my iPhone 5s, only 14 or so found their way to the contacts app on the Macbook Pro? Ideas about why? (I checked my phone settings and I do have contacts "on" in iCloud, so that shouldn't be the problem.) Unfortunately, this is a time when Apple Care is "experiencing an unusually high volume of calls" so I'm not getting through...
I was able to solve the problem: I dragged the folder named iPod Photo Cache to the Trash (following the instructions in: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1314 and the discussion in: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=11399437�)
Thank you very much, Ingo2711! -
Can't sync iPhone contacts with Yahoo on iTunes
I always get a connection error while syncing my iPhone with the Yahoo Address book because an Internet connection is not available. But it is available since all other Internet apps work
See http://img87.imageshack.us/my.php?image=iphonebugzp9.png for a screenshot of the exact error.
Thanks
shirazI get the same error, if it makes you feel better. I have seen a few posts on this subject with no help.

How can I sync the contacts in my phone with those on my MacBook Pro? I already have an iCloud account, and everything else (calendars,music, etc.I is already synched) but the contacts won't.
Ok.
Open System Preferences, Apple Logo icon in the menu bar and then System Preferences or the Sys Pref iocon in the Dock and go to the Internet Accounts area and look at your iCloud account. It should list what is and isn't synced by a checkmark next to each item.
Also in the Contacts app click on Contacts in the menu bar and select Preferences then accounts and make sure your iCloud account is listed. You can also do that from the Internet Accounts area in System Preferences. -

If you have iCloud configured in iPhone, do the same for iPad.

How can I sync my calendars on the MacBook Pro, iCloud, iPad and iPhone? Since upgrading to the newest OS on each device, none of the calendars sync. Any suggestions?
Hi silverk,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand the need for all of your calendars to be up to date across all of your devices and how frustrating it can be when they are not syncing as you would expect. In this situation I would suggest reading over and using the attached article for troubleshooting.

Have a great day,

Can't sync my contact from iPhone to iPad Air
Can't sync my contact from iPhone to iPad Air.
If I add a new contact in iPad Air it appears on iPhone. If I delete this new contact on iPhone it is also deleted on iPad. But the whole contacts of iPhone cannot be imported in iPad.
Please help me! Who has any idea?Welcome to the Apple Community.
Please try the following…
First check that all your settings are correct, that contact syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
Make sure the contacts you are adding are added to your 'iCloud' group and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud group (you can do this by checking in groups), non iCloud contacts will not sync.
If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your contacts are in the iCloud group, you might try unchecking contact syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling contact syncing. -
I had an Iphone 4S from AT&T and now I own an Iphone 5S from Sprint. the two accounts are mine but I have them under different Itune accounts.
How can I sync my contacts????Thank you for your help. Your answer helped me the best . I have 2 I.d.'s because I my daughter was on my first account and I was getting all her text messages and it was messing up us both because I would get her stuff and she would get mine. I use my phone for personal use and work. I needed one separate account so my personal things stood personal. I'm sure there was a way to stop it but I'm always so busy working that I didn't have time and having another account was the easiest and least time consuming way.

How can I sync my contacts from my iPhone to iPad?
How can I sync my contacts from my iPhone 5 to my iPad 2?
Do you use iCloud? On both devices - Go to Settings>iCloud and turn on Contacts, calendars, reminders, and whatever you want to sync in those settings.
If you haven't set up iCloud yet....
