Contacts Do Not Appear To Be Synching From Outlook

I turned on the sync contacts option under the Exchange/Outlook Mail settings on my iPhone iOS 8. So far, none of my unique work contacts have shown up on my iPhone with my personal contacts via iCloud.
I'm not sure what else to do. I looked for an option under the Contacts section of the settings, but nothing there seemed to apply.
My Mail and Calendar info syncs perfectly from my Outlook application on my work desktop. Is it possible that my corporate Exchange server does not support Outlook Contact syncing? Are there settings in Outlook that need to be updated?
I did notice Outlook has a Sync Services area for synching with iCloud, but that's not really what I want to do. And my Calendar info syncs fine without this being turned on. Also, my Reminders/Tasks sync perfectly as well.
Is it just a matter of adjusting some settings somewhere, or do I need to look elsewhere for a solution?

Apple used to strive for smarter solutions but that has changed.
After "upgrading" to Mavericks you can no longer sync device to device with USB or WiFi.
This is so stupid! First, when you travel there are long periods of no WiFi or 3G/4G. Second, cloud-based services are still pretty worthless because it's slow. Third, cloud-based services are still pretty worthless because of low security. Fourth, cloud-based services are still pretty worthless because of low capacity (I have a calendar from my first Newton of 1996 and iCloud can't handle the amount of data).
Why would you prohibit safe and fast syncing via USB??? It's just plain stupid!
Do NOT upgrade to Mavericks if you want to keep your safe and fast sync for Calendars and Contacts.

Sending Texts from My Verizon - my Contacts do not appear

I want to use the "Messaging - Send Text" feature of the My Verizon website. I can login, select "Messaging - Send Text" and the Send Text options display. One of them is Contacts. It displays 6 contacts; for some reason, only my immediate family members are displayed. On my phone and in "Messaging - Contacts" I have at least 100 contacts.
How come my 100+ Contacts do not appear in the "Messaging - Send Text" area of My Verizon? Thanks for any comments!

The contacts that you see displayed are the people you have sent messages to from the My Verizon web site. Your contacts do not automatically sync to the web site, you have to enter the contact information and then select save contact. Since there are three different ways to send messages from the site, you are able to customize your contacts. I have provided some additional information below for your review:
Overview:
Send a text message to your friends, an easy and fast way to stay connected nationwide and internationally.
Three ways to send text messages:
Text to another mobile phone - using any 10 digit phone number that can receive a text message.
Text to a mobile phone from your PC using the "Send a Text" option from the menu at left.
Text to mobile phone from E-mail, send and receive text messages from any email address in the world by addressing the email to your 10 digit mobile number, [email protected], or your custom [email protected]
Thank You

My contacts will not appear on my computer and when I go to the webpage for Icloud, it says there is an error and that I can't connect to the server. (which may have something to do with the facts that my contacts have disappeared.)

The iphone is not a storage device.
The music sync is one way - computer to iphone. The exception being itunes purchases.
You need to copy everything from the old computer, or your backup copy of your old computer, to the new one.

Hello JinxUK,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with the iCloud Control Panel. I found an article referencing the error message you are getting:
“Your setup couldn't be started because of an unexpected error.”
Apple is investigating this issue. This article will be updated as more information becomes available.

I recommend saving that link so that you can check back for a resolution when it becomes available.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

Events do not appear in the photos from my iPhone only albums and location.

Events do not appear in the photos from my iPhone only albums and location. Would you helpe me?

If you are seeing your photos in "Last Import", the photos are somewhere in your library. Perhaps the dates are wrong, and you do not see the photos arranged by date, where you expect them to be.
Select one of the photos on "Last Import", then ctrl-click it and select "Show in Event". That will take you to the event in event view.

My contacta does not appear in iCloud

Before I used iCloud services, without realizing, the setting in Setting>Mail,Contacts, Calenders>ACCOUNTS was one of my email addresses (say,[email protected]), therefore ALL of my contacts do not appear in my iCloud's contact account. in this case how do I change my original contacts catagorized under "[email protected]" to "iCloud" so I can transfer them for backup in iCloud?
Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.

A brief and probably non-helpful answer: I know of no way to eliminate your large amount of duplicates other than by repetitive, tedious manual effort.
*There has got to be a simpler way.*
I hope you're right, but I don't think there is a simpler way.
BACKUP: It also appears that the only way I can back up the catalog is to shut down LR. Really?!
Yes, really

Within Contacts, tap Groups at top left. Make sure all contact groups are checked to show, then tap "Done" at top right.

Synchronized Contacts do not appear in Address Book

Hello,
I have OS 10.6.6, iSync 3.1, Address Book 5.0.3 and a NOKIA 6500c Phone. I successfully installed the plugin for the Nokia (at least it seems like it, the phone is recognized).
I have like 6 contact in Address Book and like 150 on Phone. When I do the "first time" sync I chose "merge" phone and computer. When doing the sync, on the phone display a status bar appears and it says x/150 synchronized, as should be, and within a few seconds its done. But the contacts do not appear in Address Book. I've tried this a few times after resetting the syncing settings and everytime I do the first time sync, it appears to work, but nothing appears in Address Book.
Funny is: If I change the phone number of one of the existing 6 entries, that I have in my AddressBook on computer, on the phone, the change is synchronized to the computer. But no new entries are entered on the computer.
What am I missing?
Thank you!

There should be an option within the phones menus somewhere.
I think its something like choose Edit on a contact and change the *Store to* option to phone
Or, it may be something like this:

My iphone 5 calendar, synched from Outlook, doesn't display location

I have recently made the transition from Android to an iPhone 5. My iPhone calendar events are synching from Outlook, except that the location is not being shown. This is a serious shortcoming since this is the field that not only is used to show physical meeting/activity locations, but also in my world, the call-in information for teleconferences. I have actually had to pull off the road and do Internet searches for an address or ask someone else in a meeting with an Android or Blackberry to look up this information for me.
Am I missing a setting somewhere? If this is not an available feature, then can anyone recommend a suitable app that I can use that will provide this basic piece of information.
As much as I like the physical look and feel of my iPhone and the glass screen, I miss Android's standard back and menu buttons. Even as a geek and having used my phone for 2-3 months, I still find myself lost and frustrated about not having more control and easy navigational cues.
Thank you in advance,
Paulette

Are you syncing with Outlook, or with Exchange? I sync with Exchange and the location appears immediately under the name of the scheduled event.

I use Plaxo for my contacts, and I want it to synch my Outlook contacts with my PC. I got a new HP PC with the (awful) Windows 8.0 operating system, and, to say the least, I miss the good old days. Plaxo customer support tells me that I can't use my iCloud contact synch because they clash.
My question: How do I disable my iCloud contact synch feature while still allowing the rest of iCloud (music, photos) to operate as usual.
What mysterious steps must I take in order to do this and not cause a complete meltdown in the process? The meltdown that I fear most is the one that happens between my ears.

Music is nothing to do with iCloud but Photostream is, so turn off Mail, Contacts and Calendars (in the iCloud Control Panel) and leave everything else on.
You will lose iCloud Calendars and Mail as well as Contacts, but you can manually re-enable mail (if you use iCloud email)
