Contacts did not transition from MobileMe to iCloud...now what?

Running Windows Vista and Windows Mail here.  Which I understand that in order to sync contacts with it requires Outlook on my computer.  That's ok at this point and is not crucial because I can always hard wire the iPhone to iTunes and sync with my computer  that way but my problem is that I cannot get my contacts onto iCloud!!!  When I transitioned from MM to iCloud all my contacts didn't transition.   There is only 1 contact showing in iCloud and that is the [email protected]  THAT'S ALL!  No other contacts are there.
How do I get my contacts that were on Mobile Me over to iClould now that MM is gone!

Go to System Preferences>iCloud, click Sign Out, choose Delete at all of the prompts, restart your Mac, then go back and sign back in.  (This deletes the account and iCloud data from your Mac, but not from iCloud.  Your data will reappear on your Mac when you sign back in.)

  • I lost all the contacts after the conversion from MobileMe to iCloud ? What can I do now ?

    What can I do now ?

    Along with checking to see if the documents are still there in the browser, sounds like maybe iCloud turned off on the iPad. You can check in Settings.
    Go to Settings.
    On the left hand side, go to iCloud and make sure it is on and the "Document & Data" are ON.
    Then on the left hand side go to Pages and make sure "Use iCloud" is ON.
    Do the same for Numbers and Keynote.
    Maybe a long shot, but worth checking.

  • TS4003 Now have iCloud mail. But the 'Sent' folder messages (only) did not transfer from MobileMe Mail

    Now have iCloud mail. But the 'Sent' folder messages (only) did not transfer from MobileMe Mail.

    Your first theory may be correct.
    If you haven't already, change your password on your .mac account. That will stop any further action by the other fellow. Even if you can't tease out the detail of what happened exactly, you can at least fix the problem with the password change.
    Also if you left on good terms, contact the new owner of the workMac and ask if s/he used your .mac account.

  • I have .me and .mac email accounts on my iPhone 4. I thought I had successfully transitioned from MobileMe to iCloud, but something must be wrong. iCloud seems to work fine on my computer and, with the exception of two email accounts, seems to be fine on

    I have .me and .mac email accounts on my iPhone 4. I thought I had successfully transitioned from MobileMe to iCloud, but something must be wrong. iCloud seems to work fine on my computer and, with the exception of two email accounts, seems to be fine on my phone. Can/should I delete the accounts on my phone and start over? It is somewhat of a nuisance to have two email accounts and double the amount of emails. The only thing different about the two iCloud accounts is the email addresses. Thanks.

    Well, seems I managed to unscrew this...I deleted my iCloud mail account and reinstalled it on my phone. That got rid of the duplicate .me/.mac email accounts.

  • Transitioned from MobileMe to iCloud, need iCal help!

    I've made the transition from MobileMe to iCloud.  My Macbook's system prefs shows on iCloud account, using my mobileme email.  My iCal however, only shows my me.com calendars, while the iCloud.com online calendar only shows the two default calendars.  Am I missing something?

    I am in EXACTLY the same boat.
    Double points to the correct answer!
    Good luck Chris.

  • After transition from mobileme to iCloud everything seems working as expected, except from my music that doesn't sync within devices. Any suggestions?

    Hi pvonk,
    Thanks for the tip...I just logged onto iCloud.com and the folders/mail are correct (compared to my laptop). This tells me the problem is on my phone. So I will try an erase/restore to see what that does!
    thanks,

  • ICloud sync: Contacts are not syncing from Mac to iCloud, other services OK.

    Notes and calendar data are syncing fine. Syncing between iPhone and iCloud on all 3 appears to work fine. I have toggled syncing through the control panel; did not help.

    Go to System Preferences>iCloud, click Sign Out, choose Delete at all of the prompts, restart your Mac, then go back and sign back in.  (This deletes the account and iCloud data from your Mac, but not from iCloud.  Your data will reappear on your Mac when you sign back in.)

  • 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.

    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.

  • All Contacts Lost from Computer, then iCloud, now what?

    As above, but I had a backup from a month ago, still lost a lot of added things but it could have been worse. I guess you have to back up iCloud / your Address Book with an archive daily.
    The problem is that when I import my remaining contacts back into the Addres Book, they disappear after a few seconds and never end up on my iCloud web page at my iCloud account. Now what???
    I tried deleting the iCloud account, re initiating, all sorts of things but no joy.

    Contact applecare. they have procedures for this.

  • TS4003 Move from MobileMe to iCloud Error

    Anyone have an idea on how to cure the error message when moving from MobileMed to iCloud?

    What error message. Some users have found they need to log out of mobile me before migrating.

  • HT5527 I did not move my Mobileme account to iCloud. How can I get off the iCloud mailing list?

    I did not move my Mobileme account to iCloud. How can I get off the iCloud mailing list?

    If you migrated your MobileMe account before 1 August you should have signed into System Preferences>iCloud with it, and you would be able to see your calendars, bookmarks and emails on the iCloud website. Is this the case? Did you sign into iCloud with your @me.com address?
    If you did not migrate your MobileMe account you can no longer do so.
    If you did migrate, did you do so from a full MobileMe account or from a Family Pack sub-account? the latter did not get the complimentary storage (because their iDisks were only 5GB anyway).
    If you had a full MobileMe account, check on your Mac - System Preferences>iCloud - and see whether that shows the upgrade. If it doesn't, you probably need to contact Support: if you currently happen to have AppleCare, either because you recently bought Apple hardware or have paid to extend the inititial period, you can contact them here:
    http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/contact/
    You will need the serial number of the covered hardware.
    If you are not covered by AppleCare, then - in common with other free email services - there is no free support (MobileMe Support is no longer available) and you may be asked to pay a fee: in this case you should ask them to deal with it without cost (and hope they agree).
    Note that you haven't paid anything for your MobileMe storage since your first renewal date after 6 June 2011, and iCloud costs nothing unless you specifically choose to upgrade the storage. Note also the iCloud storage is not general file storage in the manner of the iDisk but is restricted to iOS device Backup, Mail, Photo Journal and Documents.

  • I moved from mobileme to icloud yesterday.  events i entered today on my iphone synced to icloud, but not ical on my mac?

    Yesterday I moved from MobileMe to iCloud.  Everything moved.  Today I entered new events on my iPhone and they synced to iCloud, but not to iCal on my MacBook.  Any thoughts as to why?

    I am using iCloud, been on it for weeks and the calendars and contacts work for me but they don't work for my wife's profile.  I am running 10.7.2 on our MacBook and our iMac desktop.  We have a lot of devices and I'm struggling to get them all on the same page.  We each have our own iPhones and we share an iPad, so that's five total devices I'm trying to sync via iCloud. 
    Specifically, she updates contacts on iPhone and they never sync with desktop... its been weeks and they still haven't synced.  when I go to iTunes the options are the same as I did for my profile...
    any ideas?

  • HT1766 I have manually back up my iphone few days back, and my contact got missing the next day. i restored my back up from iTunes, however, my contact did not get restored. How do i check if the manual back up did actually back up my contact or not?

    I have manually back up my iphone few days back, and my contact got missing the next day. i restored my back up from iTunes, however, my contact did not get restored. How do i check if the manual back up did actually back up my contact or not? How do i get back my old contact in my phone?

    Your entire second paragraph is so confusing I am going to ignore it.
    But I may be able to answer your first and third paragraphs, which seem to address the same question.
    I wonder where your iPhone states it was backed up yesterday.  I am going to assume that you see this under Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup.
    If that is true, then the backup from yesterday is in iCloud.  The one and only way to restore an iCloud backup is to do this on your iPhone:
    Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings
    That will cause your iPhone to begin a setup process.  As part of that process, assuming you enter the same Apple ID you used when you created the iCloud backup, you will be offered the opportunity to restore from it.

  • Just converted from MobileMe to iCloud. But now my iCal does not sync with either my iPhone or iCloud.  What have I missed?

    Just converted from MobileMe to iCloud.  But now my iCal does not sync to my iPhone or iCloud.  What did I do wrong?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Is calendar syncing enabled on both the computer and the phone.
    Are your calendars in your iCloud group and not in a on my mac group.
    only calendars in the iCloud group will sync.
