Can I use smart groups in icloud contacts?

I have a bunch of smart groups set up on my Mac, but I can't see them on icloud contacts. Are smart groups supported on icloud?

I don't believe so.

How do move ALL contacts from other groups into iCloud contacts group

Is there a way to make Icloud contacts the default for the "groups" on my iphone ?
OR
is there a way to merge ALL the other groups into icloud contacts so i just have the one Icloud group to deal with on the iphone ?
Thanks !

This page: http://www.macworld.com/article/1054187/outlooktoaddress.html - has this to say:
'Under Outlook 2002 you could simply open your contacts and drag them to the desktop to turn them into vCards. No longer. Try this and the contacts are converted to messages.
While you can select a single Outlook contact, choose File -> Save As and, in the resulting dialog box, choose vCard Files from the Save as Type pop-up menu, this works only for individual contacts—you can’t export a group of contacts this way.
You have a few options for eventually getting the things out of Outlook. The first is to select all your contacts and choose Action -> Forward as vCard. Outlook will create a new email message that contains all your contacts as individual vCard attachments. Send this message to yourself, pick it up on the Mac, drag these files into Address Book or Entourage’s Address Book and you’re good to go.
Or Sperry Software can lend a hand with its $20 vCard Converter Add-in for Microsoft Outlook. This adds a service that enables Outlook to export all your contacts as a single vCard.'
A Microsoft Help Page suggests:
'The simplest way to do this would be to export your Outlook contacts to a tab-delimited file and then import that into Address Book.
In Outlook select File menu --> Export... and select Contacts to a list (tab-delimited text).
Save the new file to your Desktop.
In Apple's Address Book select File menu --> Import... and select your file.
Use the next window to match the field names in Address Book with those in your export file'
If using either method you import into Address Book you can sync that to iCloud, which is probably easier than trying to import into the iCloud website. If you're prepared to splash out $20 the Sperry Software program would simplify matters a lot.

How can I remove my company's iCloud Contacts account from a former employee's iPhone and have the current information removed as well?

How can I remove my company’s iCloud Contacts account from a former employee's iPhone and have the current information removed from their iPhone at the same time as well? Will just changing the iCloud password be enough? Our company shares an iCloud account for convenience but when someone leaves we don't want the information to stay on their iPhone.

Changing the password would only block them from accessing the iCloud information. They would still have access to the local copy on thier phone. To delete the local information, you would need to go to Settings>iCloud on the phone, tap Delete Account, then choose Delete from My iPhone. (This only deletes the iCloud account and data from the phone, not from iCloud.) This, obviously, must be done during the exit process as it requires access to the phone.

HOW CAN I CREATE A GROUP WITH MY CONTACTS FOR TEXTING

Olga, this is not a default feature in iPhone. You need a 3rd party application. I have created a free one, Easy Group, for group texting and group emailing.

Hi,
We changed the iCloud account on the Mac Book and now we can not use some part of iCloud like Documents, etc on the Mac book to sync to iPad.
It says it is not the principal account.

The iPad and the Mac need to be signed into the same account, 2 different accounts won't work

Can I send email to an iCloud contact group via Outlook 2010

When I installed iCloud on my PC so I could share my Outlook 2010 contact info with my iPad, I lost all my distribution lists (contact groups). I created a new Group in iCloud and copied several contacts to it. I also assigned those specific contacts to one category, thinking perhaps I could select easily based on category.
Now I want to select that entire group (or category in the "to" of an email. If I click on the "To' button, I am taken to my general iCloud all contacts folder. Category is not a criteria by which I can select. If I try to type in the name of the Group, it is not recognized.
If I have lost the ability to send group emails, I am going to be one unhappy camper!

You would need to create a new Security-enabled DL in the Exchange Management Console. Rackspace will help you accomplish this.

How can I get smart group in address book to email?

Hi
I'm trying to send an email out to a smart group I created which has about 150 members. I right click send email while in the address book. The group ends up in the 'To:' field. I do a 'cmd A' to select all and move them to the 'bcc' field. I put my email address in the 'To' field. I create the subject line and body text which containes a url and an image with a url link.
When I press send it immediately moves to my outbox and sits there with no activity showing in the MAIL ACTIVITY preview pane.... I've left it for quite a while thinking it might take a while but nothing changes.
When I send it to my self only it works. I've tried taking a smaller group last names A-C 30 recipients and it does the same thing.
Would appreciate some help if you have had the same problem or maybe know what I've done wrong. Oh, I've also tried it sending it out on me.com and shaw.ca email accounts...
Thanks

If you want to "send an email" to the group, you need to get the group into your email client's Contacts first...
Select your Group > Select All
From Address Book.App "Help" (±10 years old)
*See emphasis below* -
Importing and exporting vCards
A vCard, or "virtual address card," is a standard method of exchanging data between applications. Address Book can create and read vCards, so if you have another application that also works with the vCard format, you can import or export addresses as vCards.
Also, you can send your own card to other people in vCard format. They can use the vCard to add your information to their address books.
You can also use vCards to add addresses to the Contacts list on your iPod.
To create a vCard, drag an address card out of the Address Book window.
To add someone else's vCard to your address book, drag it into the Address Book window.
To create a single vCard with multiple entries, drag more than one card out of the Address Book window.
To create multiple vCards at the same time, hold the Option key when dragging multiple cards out of the Address Book window.
You can also work with vCards using commands in the File menu.
Address Book also supports Lightweight Directory Interchange Format (LDIF). LDIF is an ASCII file format used to exchange information and enable synchronization of that information between Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) servers. You can't export information from Address Book in LDIF format; you can only import it. Address Book can import and export vCards.
To determine the format of a document, select the document and choose File > Get Info. The format, or kind of document, is listed at the top.
If another application won't accept vCards in the default 3.0 format, try changing the format to 2.1 in the vCard pane of Address Book Preferences, and send the vCard again.

Smart groups in iCloud but not on Mac

I'm not sure exactly how to word the subject, but here's what hapenned:
Upgraded from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion. I activated iCloud for that Mac aftwards
All seemed fine for a while until the first time I tried to send mail to Smart Groups that I had previously had set up from other address groups in Snow Leopard. That caused mail to crash repeatedly upon opening until I figured how to delete the outgoing message before it crashed.
Those Smart Groups no longer seem to be populated in my Contacts list. Neither do the groups under "On My Mac" in Contacts. They still appear but have no addresses within them.
Yet when I go to iCloud.com or select the groups within the iCloud section of Contacts, they do appear.
How do I get my Smart Groups repopu on my Mac?

Both Eric Root and Csound1 helped me with restoring the contacts into those "On My Mac" groups. I exported from the iCloud list and imported back into the "On My Mac" groups (creating new ones as needed.
I'm still having problems when I try to mail using the smart groups that draw from those groups. When I type in the To block the name of the smart group they apper in bold, but when I try to send they crash mail. Do I have to remove the name of the smart group from my previous recipents window to get them to grab the right address.

How to use smart groups?

I am now unable to use my smart groups. If I do the command A in the address silhouette in a new message, only one smart group appears. I can't seem to expand my smart groups listings when I do this.
Help!
Thank you.

I discovered this problem this morning after upgarding to Mavericks.
I've found an easy answer: Apple have changed the way it confirms the addition of Groups it seems.
Type the name of the group in the Cc: or Bcc: field, hit the Space bar, then hit Enter. Vavoom!!
Hope this helps.

Can i MAKE a group, from unrelated contacts ON the iPad.

I know how to form a "new group" in the address book, on my parent MacBook.
However, i am away for a week, and would love to be able to fashion a new contact group, from EXISTING contacts, ON the I pad directly.
I cant seem to find a mechanism on the ipad to do so,
Nor can i on my iphone's contact list.
Thanks,
Jesse

Allow me to suggest a workaround that is quite handy, and that I use to send emails to groups using my iPad. I use the iPhone app called Pastebot ($2.99) to create a library of my frequently used groups. In essence, I set up the list of email addresses in each group as a clipping. Then when I need to send that group an email, I open Pastebot and simply select the group clipping, go to the Mail app and paste the selected group clipping into the TO line of the email.
Works great, assuming you don't have too many groups.

Can I use Calendar "Groups" or views as data sources in PDA Sync?

From what I can see, you can only use calendars that you are subscibed to and not calendar groups/views that you have created.

As I understand it you can choose to view them individually or combined.
When I bought my iPhone and mobileMe I was told to sync to exchange account first as doing it after may delete my other accounts data.

Can I create a "Groups" feature in contacts that all people fall under it?

I'd like to input a few peoples information, but I want to keep all of them together as a Group so that I just search for the group vs their names individually
Can this be done inside of Contacts?

Ok I have outlook 2007
I've read over the walk-thru you've provided & I believe I want to "Group Individual contacts into folders"
And I've created a new folder & have added the contacts with in that folder. I've also ticked the box to Sync Outlook with my iphone within itunes
But it still hasnt sync'd the info to my iphone?
Right now in Outlook on the left pane under "My Contacts" there is the folder "Contacts" and my new one "Native Sons"
But for some reason my iphone only wants to sync with the Contacts folder & not also the Native sons folder?
So is there a way to tick anything so that it syncs both folders, or do I need to add the people in my new group to the "Contacts" folder as well? Sort of double dip them?
