Contacts not synching through cloud

I added my contacts to the cloud, they all showed up on my air book, but when I add a new contact to either my iPhone or air book, it does not show on both devices. What am I doing wrong?

Open Contacts>Preferences>General and verify that iCloud is the default account on your Mac. Then do the same thing on your iPhone. Settings>Mail, Contacts and Calendars>Contacts>Default account.
Same applies to Calendars.

  • Iphone 6 and ipad contacts not synching with icloud

  • TS3999 my outlook calendar is not synching through icloud even though both PC and iphone set up that way

    This is weird, i am not good at open inquiry.. but think something simple is not set.  I did have synching initially when accepted icloud synch, instead of direct connect of iphone and PC.  Something has changed on Calendars and thus appts are not synching.  HELP! 

    If new events added to your phone are not appearing on your calendar on icloud.com, one thing to check on your phone is Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Calendar.  This should be set to your iCloud calendar.  Then add a new event on your iPhone calendar and see if it syncs to icloud.com properly.
    If your settings are correct and new events on your phone are still not syncing to your calendar on icloud.com, add any missing events on your iPhone to your calendar on icloud.com.  Once the calendar on icloud.com is up to date, go to Settings>iCloud, turn Calendars to Off, choose Delete from My iPhone when prompted (your calendar will still be in iCloud), then after a minute or so, turn Calendars back to On.  Then add a new event to your phone and see if it syncs to icloud.com now.

  • All of my contacts not synching?

    Using Address Book 4.1, I am unable to synch certain contacts to either of my i
    Pod Touches. I have deleted the contacts from Address Book and re-entered them, though they will not synch over. Any ideas?
    Thanks.

    I'm guessing you mean folders in the Address Book program? If so, they are all in the same folders.

    It is definitely set to synching contacts, some are synching, just not all of them. It is a few that will not synch.

  • My calendars are not synching through iCloud

    Big frustration: For some reason I can't fathom my iPhone, iPad and Mac are no longer synching when I update a calendar on one of the devices. I've gone into preferences and turned on and off the calendar, deleted the iCloud account and reinstalled, and still nothing. Why is this happening suddenly and what is the best long-term fix. I'm highly dependant on my devices keeping up with my life. Thank you.

    We need more info.  Are you saying you've lost all calendar info on all devices, or are the events you had still there, but the problem is with NEW events added on one device not showing up on the others?
    Are you having similar problems with the other databases, like contacts and notes?
    To check whether a new event from one device is even making it to icloud, log into icloud.com with a computer's browser and look at the calender there.  If the event does not show up, then the device is not sending the data to icloud.  If the event is there, then icloud is not able to send the data to the other device(s).

  • HT204150 iCloud Contacts not synching

    I have synched my iPhone 4 to iCloud and only 29 of my contacts are appearing in the iCloud contacts even though I have a lot more than that on my phone. How do I get the rest of my contacts into iCloud without doing it manually?
    I am now the proud owner of an iPad and unable to put all my contacts into the iPad from iCoud due the above problem.
    Thank you for your help

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    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.

  • Contacts not in i cloud.What i need to do to see them there.?

    i sync my i phone 10 times with i cloud,but the only my information in i cloud contacts.how to sync contacts to i cloud?

    You can leave the CAT5 from the ONT to your router, and only carry the TV signal from the ONT to the TVs over COAX. The router wil bridge between the CAT5 WAN and the COAX MoCA LAN connections for your TVs to get the signal. But you will need coax and CAT5 from your ONT to your router. The coax would have a splitter to your STBs, and a connection to your router. That is how mine is setup. I can use my own router if I like, but it is not supported. If you chose to use your own router you would still need to pass the IP to the coax with the actiontec.

  • Contacts not synching properly...

    Hi Guys,
    Just been tidying up my Address Book on the Mac and reset the sync to .Mac Have also just synched to my iPhone and some of the contacts have information missing like phone numbers etc!
    Is their a reason for this or even a workaround? Plainly a phone with missing numbers is about as useful as a chocolate ashtray...
    Cheers

    I couldn't have put this better as I too have the same **** problem - what is going on! Surely this is a simple function that Apple should be put away for screwing up - unbelievably slack performance

  • IPhone 3GS / Exchange 2007 - One Contact Not Synching

    Hi there,
    We have a 3GS phone that is not synchronizing 1 contact (only the one we know of about 250+) when the contact is definitely in the users Outlook 2007 / Exchange 2007 system. As best we can tell, all of the users other contacts our showing up fine on the iPhone.
    Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!

    The wrong contact Group was selected. Once we selected the Exchange accounts "Contacts" all the accounts were there.

  • IPod does not synch to Cloud

    I have an iPod Classic 120.  I had over 6,000 songs on it when I subscribed to the iCloud.  Now I can download only 3,500 songs to it.
    I have three categories of music --  1) purchases I downloaded from Apple Store; 2) songs on CD's I loaded into the iTunes Library; and 3) downloads from Amazon.  I think the iCloud works ok with my iPhone.  At least I'm not aware of any songs I can't get on the iPhone.  The iPod is different -- have I run into some sort of Apple DRM scheme or is there a solution that will allow me to recover my songs on my iPod.
    I did backup mymusic library before I bought into the iCloud.

    Are you saying you uploaded your iTunes library to the Cloud via iTunes Match?  Is all of your music still stored in your iTunes library on your PC?
    The first step you'll want to take is determine which tracks are not syncing to the iPod (whether only iTunes purchases sync, Amazon downloads, etc.)

  • Contacts not synching from Apple Address Book to iPhone

    I updated to iTunes 10.6.3 on MacOS 10.8.1 and my Contacts no longer synch.
    In fact, on the iTunes Info page, the groups don't even display when Synch Contacts and All Contacts are both selected.
    The iPhone has iOS 5.1.1, which is current.
    I checked Software Update. Then I synched with the advanced option to overwrite Contacts on the iPhone with the Apple Address Book on my iMac. No luck.
    Then I searched online and didn't find anything on point, so I came here to share this issue in the hopes that you have some inights and ideas to fix this problem.
    Any suggestions?
    BTW, this clears Contacts on the iPhone.
    Thanks in advance!

    Oops -- I just had to turn iCloud on in the System settings on the iPhone, then the Contacts synched.

  • Music and photos are not synching through icloud

    Just purchased an I-phone 6.  My 4s was backed up to icloud.  After restoring using icloud only about 20% of my music and 50% of my photos were transferred.  Am I not doing something?

  • Photos, calendar entries, contacts not synching between my iPad, iPhone, and PC.  Was working a few weeks ago!

    Until a few weeks ago, any photo I saved on my iPad automatically showed up on my computer.  The same with changes to contact information, calendar entries, etc.  If I made the changes/additions on one device it automatically showed up on the other.  Now, that doesn't happen.  What do I need to check/fix to get that working again?

    im in the same situation except, i cant even load my old backup onto my phone, itunes gives me an error message, no number, and acts like there was no problem, syncs all my music and i have to use my phone as a new one, i have no contacts or anything now, and i cant even go back to 4.3.5 now, that wont even let me, itunes keeps making errors.....
