Contact changes not sync'ing

contact changes made to laptop not sync'ing and showing up on IPhone

I have a iphone 4 with 2400 contacts on iCloud, I really like the contact management and use with great satisfaction.
I use a computer at work windows 7 and outlook 2010, I installed the panel icloud to sync contacts with iCloud.
Here's the problem:
When I insert / edit / delete a contact on iphone / icloud, the change is propagated in Outlook.
if i insert / edit / delete a contact in Outlook, the change is propagated NOT on iphone / icloud.
I have made several attempts and tests.
disconnected from the icloud control panel, logout / login, checks on plugin outlook add-ons, no positive results!
is a known problem?
is a known bug in the system?
Any idea?
thanks
Francesco

New Photos not sync'ing to iTunes

I think this happened before... I noticed that the Photos on Mac is changed. Though I don't really like the interface, I am trying to get used to it... however, once again, the photos are not sync'ing properly to iTunes... I need help... For example: there are more number of photos on my laptop after importing from my phone... Then I grouped them into different Events. However, I am not seeing these being sync back into my phone via the iTunes.
I happened before, and for some reasons, it get fixed by itself. DO you acknowledge these is a problem?

HI,
Maybe try it this way this is what I did with mine because I did not migrate and didn't know about that either.
and really have the sidebar so because it will help you get the pictures organized
Photos application for Mac Instructions that might help!
On your iPad,iPhone keep the iCloud on in settings for Photos.
if you have not opened the New Photos application yet to have it transfer your photos from iPhoto let it Transfer the Pictures.
once you have all the pictures from iPhoto to Photos then in Photos go to Preferences
there is general and iCloud tab and go to the iCloud and only uncheck the iCloud button that will make it so it doesn't sync with your iPhone and iPad for Photos.
Then in Photos go up to View and press show sidebar because with that view you can move your pictures easier to albums snd delete or move any pictures or make new albums
For Duplicates if you have a big pile in a row and I mean not like every other picture of the same pictures on the keyboard Hold down the shift button. or the other way is to Hold down the Command buttom that is right by the space bar then on the trackpad or mouse click once on the picture you want to delete and do a bunch at a time then on the last picture of that pile either right click the picture and delete or go up to the edit button which is next to file on the top left and click delete in edit.
when you are all done with moving around your pictures or whatever go back to Preferences and turn on iCloud and make sure you have the optimize Mac Storage and then you are done! I hope this makes sense and works for you! here are the 2 pictures I'm talking about in settings.

ICloud contacts do not sync under ML

I have 697 contacts in 11 groups stored in iCloud and all appear on my iPhone and iPad. They were also visible in the contacts app on my MacBook Air so far. After the installation of ML yesterday, there are only 490 contacts and no groups and changes made on the MacBook do not sync to iClound.
Any ideas? Thanks, Tom

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.

Updated contacts do not sync from Mac to iCloud

Updating or adding contacts in my Mac addressbook are not synced to the cloud. But if I make changes in my contacts on my iPhone or iPad, sync works perfectly and updates are reflected in my Mac addressbook. I'm running Lions on a MBP.
Any hints much appreciated.

IPhone Contacts & Calendars not syncing with mobileme

Apologies if there is a solution to this posted already, I can't find it despite extensive searching!
My iPhone Calendars & Contacts do not sync with MobileMe. I can't find a way of exporting or saving the data on the iPhone and importing it into my desktop iCal & Contacts apps.
I have looked at all troubleshooting help I can find, and all is suggested is deleting/ resetting the phone & syncing from MobileMe. However, if I do this I will lose lots of contacts & calendar entries.
The data will NOT sync from my phone despite following all available instructions. My desktop apps are all set to sync with MobileMe & this works fine, it's just the iPhone data will not transfer to MobileMe.
Please help!!

Since you are syncing your iPhone with your Mac, it should be syncing your contacts and calendars with your Mac as well (and your bookmarks if you have it set up to sync). You should have Mobile Me setup on your Mac to at least sync your Calendars and Contacts, which should be updating your Mobile Me account. If you want to check to make sure that all of your contacts that are on your iPhone are on your Mac, simply open up the Contacts App. Once you check this, add your Mobile Me account to your iPhone and let it sync your contacts and calendars, it will delete all the contacts and calendars that are currently on your iPhone, but the same data is on your Mac anyways. Once Mobile Me syncs with your iPhone you won't have to worry about it anymore.
If you are having problems where you already setup your Mobile Me account on your iPhone and it's not syncing properly, deleted it, restart your iPhone, then add it again.
Does this help?

Centro Calendar and Contacts do not sync

I have had a problem syncing my contacts an calendar entries for several weeks. I use a Palm Centro. I have tested with both Desktop and Outlook 2003. Both have the same symptoms. I am intrigued by other users problems that have been resolved by removing an Exchange account in Versamail. While I do not have an Exchange account that I can determine and only have one account in versamail, I'd like to eliminate any possible Versamail conflict. Is it possible to totally disable or delete versamail to test for a versamail conflict? I assume I can always reset up Versamail.
More info: I have the same problem with both Palm Desktop and Outlook 2003. Contacts and Calender entries do not sync. Tasks and memos sync just fine. After scanning the many postings on this site many centro users have the same problem. I received a replacement Centro in December and calendar and contacts have not sync'd since then. It sounds like I have a different version of hotsync on the new centro that does not work the same. Is that possible? I have Hotsync 5.4.0 on my Centro and Hotsync 7.0.2 on my desktop running XP professional.
During hotsync and in the log file there is no evidence that hotsync is attempting to sync calendar and contacts. I receive no errors in the log file. Calendar and contacts are both checked on the desktop version of hotsync with the option to synchronize the files. On the Centro under conduit setup calendar and contacts are both checked.

Michael(Wed Jan 14 06:29:26 EST 2009)>Please follow these steps to perform Hard reset on your Palm centro.
Michael(Wed Jan 14 06:29:40 EST 2009)>Disconnect your smartphone from its AC charger and USB sync cable. The hard reset will not work if either of these is connected.
Remove the battery cover, take out the battery, and put it back in.
When the Palm logo appears, press and hold Power/End until the black status bar at the bottom of the screen fills and disappears.
The screen will go blank briefly, then you'll see an "Erase all data?" prompt.
Release Power/End .
Press Up to confirm the hard reset.
When the language selection screen appears, select the same language you selected for your desktop software.
Then you'll be prompted to tap targets and set up your device. When these steps are done, your device is ready for use.
Let me know if you need any further clarification in the steps listed above.
Don_Marsh(Wed Jan 14 09:30:22 EST 2009)>just a minute, i am performing hard reset
Michael(Wed Jan 14 06:30:45 EST 2009)>Please make sure that it should ask to "Erase all data".
Don_Marsh(Wed Jan 14 09:31:07 EST 2009)>It did and I said yes. I also selected language.
Michael(Wed Jan 14 06:31:30 EST 2009)>okay.
Michael(Wed Jan 14 06:31:47 EST 2009)>Now perform HotSync during Sync please select "Create new user account".

Michael(Wed Jan 14 06:34:45 EST 2009)>There type the user name and continue the sync process.
Michael(Wed Jan 14 06:35:00 EST 2009)>I am sorry for the confusion.
Don_Marsh(Wed Jan 14 09:35:49 EST 2009)>Hot sync is asking me a question during sync. I have created a new user name. It says there is another device it has in its profile. And wants to know if I want to be able to synchronize the current device with this profile as well.
Michael(Wed Jan 14 06:37:02 EST 2009)>Yes select the default outlook profile.

Michael(Wed Jan 14 06:42:54 EST 2009)>Okay, Can you please check the device whether you got the calender, contacts or not and also check the Hotsync logs.
Don_Marsh(Wed Jan 14 09:44:06 EST 2009)>yes i have them. But it worked when i did a hard reset with verizon. We need to create an entry in my centro and perform a second hotsync. that is when it fails
Michael(Wed Jan 14 06:44:38 EST 2009)>Please create a new entry in outlook in calender and then perform Hotsync.
Don_Marsh(Wed Jan 14 09:44:44 EST 2009)>ok
Michael(Wed Jan 14 06:45:01 EST 2009)>Before that perform soft reset and then perform Hotsync.

Don_Marsh(Wed Jan 14 09:45:39 EST 2009)>ok.
Don_Marsh(Wed Jan 14 09:47:26 EST 2009)>ok, i did soft reset and created calendar entry in both centro and outlook
Michael(Wed Jan 14 06:47:43 EST 2009)>Okay, Now perform HotSync.
Don_Marsh(Wed Jan 14 09:48:26 EST 2009)>do i need to do soft reset before each hotsync
Don_Marsh(Wed Jan 14 09:48:43 EST 2009)>it worked
Michael(Wed Jan 14 06:48:55 EST 2009)>Awesome!!
Don_Marsh(Wed Jan 14 09:49:10 EST 2009)>do i need to do a soft reset everytime
Michael(Wed Jan 14 06:49:35 EST 2009)>Well that is not needed but if it is not synching then perform Hotsync.
Michael(Wed Jan 14 06:51:00 EST 2009)>Is the HotSync successfully completed with transfer of data?
Michael(Wed Jan 14 06:51:08 EST 2009)>Please ignore that error message.
Don_Marsh(Wed Jan 14 09:52:06 EST 2009)>Yes the hot sync synced the second new entry into outlook
Don_Marsh(Wed Jan 14 09:52:24 EST 2009)>So i don't care about the protocol error
Michael(Wed Jan 14 06:52:43 EST 2009)>Yes it will just gives that error message.
Michael(Wed Jan 14 06:52:46 EST 2009)>Please ignore it.
Don_Marsh(Wed Jan 14 09:53:02 EST 2009)>can i go back to my original user id?
Michael(Wed Jan 14 06:54:08 EST 2009)>Well I would suggest you to continue with the current user ID because the old user ID is not supporting the calender, contact conduits to sync.
Don_Marsh(Wed Jan 14 09:54:30 EST 2009)>ok. Thank you

Touchsmart IQ810 Calendar not sync'ing with Vista Calendar

Noticed that my Touchsmart calendar is not sync'ing with the Vista calendar events. Read the calendar threads here but they are all referring to the 500 series from what I can see.
Far as I am aware my Touchsmart software is uptodate. Rather the HP Advisor and it is not downloading anything new.
Would appreciate any suggestions.
Thanks.

i wouldn't rely on the hp advisor alone, why not download the calender update yourself and install it on your pc.
you can download it from this link, I'm assuming you have the iq810uk

Contacts Do not sync to iCloud

I add a lot of contacts to my phone throughout the month.
For some reason. The contacts do not sync to icloud consistently.
I have an iphone 4S, and am running Mavericks on my imac with the latest update 10.9.1.
I have talked to 3 Apple support techs.
I have restored phone, turned icloud on and off of all devices, all groups are checked in contacts, my mail, contacts and calendars are set as icloud as default on all devices.
Getting my contacts into icloud after I enter them onto my phone is not working..........

Have you checked to see if they are visible if you go to iCloud.com? That would probably isolate the problem to either the iPhone or the computer.

Apparantly it is, On My Mac contacts don't appear in iCloud, anywhere.
Put all your contacts on all of your devices in iCloud (assuming that's where you want them to be)
Go to www.icloud.com, login and see what you actually have in the account.
