Contacts sync with Entourage

Since I downloaded the latest iPhone update the next time I connected to sync all the contacts with Entourage they were removed. If I add in a new contact it does sync. On the iPhone (iTunes) Tab Info there is no option to select groups which I believe was originally shown as is still shown for Calendars. Any thoughts??? Thanks.

I'm having the same problem. Entourage contacts will not sync to iPhone lost everything on iPhone. The itunes option to sync with Entourage 2004 is gone?

Sync with Entourage

I use Entourage as my contact management application and a key factor in buying my iPhone was the claim that it synced with Entourage. But the calendars don't work at all. In syncing, the process hangs up on the calendering function for hours, then shows no data on the phone itself. Any suggestions? I suspect the main problem is the very weak iCal program required as part of the process. Very immature program.

Hey Dave,
First verify Entourage has been updated and the steps needed to sync have been taken.

Then reset the Sync History in the iSync aplication as described here.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iSync/2.0/en/isc39.html
Lastly, Did you modify or install any applications that may have altered the SyncServices folder?

Desktop Manager - contacts sync from Entourage but...

Desktop Manager - contacts sync from Entourage but when I add a new contact, it won't sync the other way. I have all teh Sync options set in Entourage as per the instructions.
what am I doing wrong?

I have the same problem with getting new calendar appointments from my 8530 Curve into Entourage (on Mac OS x v. 10.6.3). They go into iCal. I have Entourage sync preferences set to sync with iCal, and I have Desktop Manager advanced sync options set for events created on the device to go to Entourage - but they don't. I have "merge data" and two-way syncing set. It works fine syncing from Entourage to my BB.
How can I get data added on my BB to go directly into Entourage?
Thanks.

How do I stop my contacts syncing with Outlook 2011?

Hi - I have been using Outlook 2011 but I want to stop using it because it's really buggy. I have opened sync services in Outlook and unchecked all, but how do I make my contacts sync with Address book again? At present they will not

What is syncing between them ? If calendars, contacts, safari favourites then are you using the same iCloud account on both devices and have them enabled in Settings > iCloud on both ?
If apps, music, and/or ibooks that you buy on one device are automatically downloading on the other device then do you have automatic downloads enabled for them in Settings > iTunes & App Store on your phone/iPad ?

How to clear all details in iCal before syncing with Entourage?

Deary me! I have been back and forth to iCal and Entourage trying to find which would be best. I have decided that Entourage will suffice - although not perfect by any means. In the meantime I have completely jammed up my iCal and daren't not try syncing Entourage yet otherwise I will never understand it and my iphone will be full of toot! Anyone know how to clear all details in iCal before syncing with Entourage? (Happy Sundays!!)

Answer .... delete all calendars in iCal but leave the Entourage one there! Don't delete that as there will be big trouble!

I have my contacts synced with icloud and exchange. I want all of them to be synced via icloud, I have tried turning contacts off and then clicking merge but that doesn't copy all of them over. How do I transfer all contacts onto my phone and then icloud?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
If you can't do this on a computer, which would be much easier using drag and drop, then you will need to share the contacts with yourself in order to move them to the iCloud account.

Problems Syncing with Entourage!!!

I used to have a t-mobile MDA, and I switched to an iPhone in September because I was told that it would sync with Entourage on my iMac (unlike the MDA). At first, it worked fine, but now it's a complete mess. My entourage calendar is completely fine, but then as soon as iCal opens up to sync, it makes duplicates (or even quadruplicates) of all day events, resurects deleted appointments from the dead, changes times on appointments, and sometimes, completely deletes everything. It then dumps all this back into entourage (or deletes everything from entourage), overriding the sync settings even when I have it set not to sync the two programs at all. I have spent hours on the phone with apple, and hours at the genius bar. we've updated everything, installed patches, and completely reinstalled the operating system, iCal, and sync services. Can anyone help? I desperately need the calendaring to work, or else that was 400$ down the drain to switch to the iPhone. Will upgrading to Leopard fix the problem?

applenewbie821,
Entourage syncs with SyncServices, and the data is read from there by iTunes.
iTunes 7.3 and later also include SyncServices as a middle place for syncing with Outlook. The data is read from Outlook's PST file into SyncServices, and updated from Syncservices into the PST file. Then iTunes reads it from SyncServices, and updates it back to SyncServices. Since iTunes is the only thing that uses SyncServices, the option to "Reset Sync History" shows up in iTunes preferences on a Windows-based PC.
Entourage needs to be 11.3.5 or later. If you have Microsoft Office 2004 for Mac, then the update is free download from Microsoft. If you are using Office .X, you will need Office 2004 for Mac. if you have 11.3.5 or later you will have a SyncServices option in Entourage. Entourage will send the data to SyncServices, and read updated data from SyncServices. Then iTunes read it from SyncServices, and updates it back to SyncServices. .Mac, Entourage, iDisk, iSync, and many others use SyncServices. iSync is the front end for reseting Sync History.
iCal and Address Book also read from SyncServices and will show the same data.
Hope this helps,
Nathan C.

Not syncing with Entourage

Lately when I delete an email from Entourage on my desktop, it remains on my iPhone until I manually delete it. This just started happening -- when I first set up the phone to sync with Entourage and Mac Mail, when I would delete an email it would disappear off the phone immediately.
I just restarted my phone and it seemed to go back to working normally. Is this just something that happens from time to time, and restarting is the key? Or is there something I can do to avoid having to delete the same emails twice? It would appear that everything is set correctly in the preferences of both the iPhone and Entourage, so maybe this is just a one-time glitch.
Any thoughts? Anyone?

Hi:
In case anyone is interested in how i resolved this issue:
i decided to check the veracity of the Entourage database by verifying and repairing the database, even though Entourage was otherwise behaving well. The verification resulted in some found issues, and the repairing took the database from being 5.9GB to about 3.5GB, which was interesting. I then toggled off and back on again the sync services to iCal, whereupon iCal became re-populated with my calendar data.

Why won't contacts sync with iphone

I'm loosing the will to live and I've spent hours trawling through the huge amount of fixes suggested on various sites but to no avail. I run a macbook pro, OSX10.6.8, Itunes 10.4 and the software on the iphone was updated today. Syncing with iTunes worked fine up until about 3 weeks ago - I don't know what happend but it just stopped. If I delete all the contacts in the mac address book (310) and run a sync nothing changes on the 472 iphone contacts. All the settings appear to be correct in the preferences. If I check the box to stop syncing contacts and delete all 472 contacts on the phone - they all dissapear. When I reset the sync contacts check box and check the "replace all the contacts on this phone during the next sync" box I get all 472 back again. Can anybody offer any help at all please before I slash my wrists!!

Clearly it doesn't work as I imagine! But I still don't understand what you mean. I'm not saying that I don't like Google's instructions,- what makes you say that? I'm saying that I think I've already followed them to the letter. How have I not? What else, exactly, do I need to do? Talk me through an example, please.
"You have added a data conduit between Google and your phone. But you have not put anything IN that conduit, save the data Google already has."
What I want to put into it is the contact data aleady on my phone (and in icloud). Google's instruction seems to say that to put something in the conduit, I just have to open Contacts on the iphone. Clearly that's not correct. So what do I do?
Here's what I'm refering to in Goolge's instructions:
"If you're using iOS 5 or iOS 6, follow these steps to set up contact syncing with Google Contacts:
Tap Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Add Account... > Other > Add CardDAV Account.
Enter the following information in the fields:
Server: google.com
User Name: your full Google email address
Password: your Google account password
Tap Next at the top of the screen to complete the setup.
After you have completed the setup, open the Contacts app on your device. Syncing should begin automatically."
The last sentence seems to me to mean that opening Contacts will "put someting in the conduit".

Contacts sync with the wrong e-mail address

i added an e-mail address to my blackberry storm 9350, and now all of the contacts are syncing with that e-mail address - not the one that I want! Anyone else having this problem, and if so, how to fix it? I've gone through my phone over and over and haven't figured out a way to select which e-mail address my contacts sync with....

I have the same problem as the emails go to my iCloud account that I cannot access!!! I cannot answer the security questions as someone else must have set up my iCloud account. Nothing seems to work. It would be great if someone has some ideas as what can be done to recover the situation?

Sync with Entourage 2004

I am trying to sync my BB Bold with Entourage 2004. First I used pocketmac which was just about useless as it would either not complete the sync or make duplicate entries in both calendar and contacts. I have tried Missing Sync and while the sync always finishes it does makes duplicate entires on the device. I have totally cleaned up Entourage so there are no dups on the desktop. Can anyone suggest how I can successfully sync the Bold to Entourage ?? Thanks

The push descriptor indicates that your machine is trying to push—or, send—data to an Unfiled calendar that does not exist elsewhere. 'Elsewhere' could be in the truth database on that machine, at .Mac or on another synchronized machine.
It's clearly not on your local machine in iCal anymore. If you reset the truth database by using the Reset Sync History… option in iCal, it should no longer be present on .Mac, if you subsequently synchronized. If you opted instead to Reset Sync Data and pushed records from .Mac to your machine, it is likely that it once again resides in your copy of iCal. If you opted to Reset Sync Data and pushed records from .Mac to your machine, it will not be present in iCal.
The most reasonable explanation, given what you have described and the error dialog you printed, is that this Unfiled Calendar exists on another synchronized Macintosh. If that is the case, you must also delete it from the copy of iCal on that machine.
If you don't have another synchronized machine in your pool, I can give you a terminal command that will completely obliterate your truth database and require that you start all over again, reregistering all of your clients—including Entourage—and starting all over.
You should, by the way, disable Entourage synchronization to isolate it and temporarily simplify your synchronization pool, until you have resolved this issue. Do not simply delete the Entourage calendar from iCal, for that will result in the deletion of matching records in Entourage itself during the next synchronization event.

Palm IIIc - Trying to sync with Entourage on a G5 Tower

I am certain this issue has probably been ansewered in the past, but I would like to know the process I must follow in order to sync my Palm IIIc with my Entourage contact list.
Also, I would like to know how to send programs down the line to this device.
I tried to use the instructions I was directed to by Palm's web site. But, I keep getting the following dialog box:
Application Launch Failure
The application "HotSync Manager" could not be launched because of a shared library error: "4<HotSync Manager><HotSync Manager><HotSyncLib.PPC>"
I used to use this device with my old G3 iMac. I bought the USB kit so I could use it then and it worked like a champ. It has not been used in a few years. I took it out the other day and thought I would use it again. But, this problem has me perplexed.
I am running Tiger (OS X ver. 10.4.3) on my G5 (single CPU 1.8GHz "late 2004") with 1.25 GB of RAM.
I probably need to update the OS version on the Palm IIIc. But, until I can get the communications working, that is academic.
If someone who has lots of experience with syncing devices like this could provide me with a sequence of events I must follow in order to make this work, I would really appreciate it.
Like I said earlier, I would like to be able to sync my Entourage contact list and appointment schedule with this device. Also, I would like to be able to download Palm software from my G5 to the handheld.
Thanks!

I had Entourage configured incorrectly.

Contacts Sync with Windows Live Mail 2011

I'm using Windows 7 with the Windows Live Mail 2011 desktop application for email and contacts. Is it possible to sync the contacts in my Windows Live Mail 2011 application with my iPhone (iOS v4) using iTunes?
In Windows Vista, I used Windows Mail which stored contacts data in the Contacts folder within my profile (c:\users\username\contacts). These contacts did sync with my iPhone without any problems. Windows 7 doesn't have an email application built-in so, I'm using Windows Live Mail 2011. Windows Live Mail 2011 doesn't store contacts in the Contacts folder within my profile though. Is there anyway to sync my iPhone with my Windows Live Mail 2011 contacts?
Thanks,
Matt

Found this with a quick Google search:
To sync contacts with your computer, choose Sync Contacts on your Windows-based PC, or Sync Contacts with Address Book on your Mac.
You can sync your contacts with:
* Microsoft Outlook 2003 or Microsoft Outlook 2007 (Windows XP, Windows Vista, or Windows 7)
* Windows Address Book (Windows XP and Windows Vista)
* Address Book (Mac OS X v10.4.11 or later)
* Microsoft Entourage 2004 or Microsoft Entourage 2008
So it looks like the answer is no, you can't sync your contacts with Windows Live Mail 2011.

BB not syncing with Entourage

My bb is not syncing to Entourage - however ical and entourage are speaking when I create a new evert they go in both calendars.
Any solotions, Ive been to Mac, MS and BB support and no one can give me and answer.
Regards,
B

I think I'm having similar trouble. Just downloaded new Mac Desktop Software to be able to sync BB Curve 8330 with MacBook Pro and updated phone software also. Every time try to sync get error with no message or code on Calendar and Address sync "A sync error occurred. Please retry the sync." .... then puts a green checkmark like worked fine but have no addresses or calendar events transferred. Simply transferring from iCal and Mac's Address Book... very frustrating! Was using PocketMac but it wasn't syncing over newly-added contacts for some reason and was goofing my computer's calendar all up. Why can't things be easy and just WORK?
Would like advice also please!!!!!!!!
Thank you!
