Gmail contact group

I would like to use the part of gmail contacts (gmail contacts group) in my iPhone. The contacts should be synced.
As far as i understand, this is not possible without apps like Smart Contacts Sync for Google Account.
Has anyone successfully tried? I would appreciate post from people who have tried and it worked.
IOS 6.1.4
iTunes 11.0.063

Is it really not related? I forgot to write:
It was possible to select contacts for syncing In the older iTunes version, I read about it, but have not tried with older versions.
Now, version 11 it is not possile any more. I am suprised noone had those problems.

  • Syncing gmail contact groups with ipad2

    I wish to sync my gmail contacts groups using microsoft exchange on the iPad2. Everything syncs correctly except the gmail groups I have created for my contacts.  Anyone have a solution ?

    I just set up syncing with Gmail Contacts for my wife's iPad this morning. IOS doesn't handle Groups. I've seen lots of gripes about this in many places online. I've also seen it suggested that we should suggest this as a "feature" to Apple. I'm going to look all day today for a place to do this. I hope you will, too. Good luck!

  • Possible to sync just ONE Gmail contact group?

    So I'm wondering if it's possible to synchronize just one Gmail contact group with my Blackberry contacts.  Like, I have about 15 Gmail contact groups -- one group for co-workers, one group for publicists who send me press releases, one group for friends, etc.  I only want the addresses in my friends group to be sync'd with my Blackberry.  Is this possible?  Or do I have to let them all sync, and then manually delete the contacts I don't want from my Blackberry? 

    Hey eggcream,
    The contact list "My Contacts" is the list that synchronizes.
    You can remove this label in your Gmail contacts from those of whom you do not wish to have synchronized over.

  • Synching gmail contact groups with the iPhone

    Can I import my gmail contact groups into an iPhone/Macbook?  Do I need to put them in the iContacts or some other way.  Thank you..

    Found out I was using Outlook 2000. Syncing won't work unless you use Outlook 2003 or higher. I got around this by going into Outlook contacts and did the following steps under the file tab I:
    1-Export to file
    2-Comma Separated Values (Windows)
    3-Named file
    4-Saved file to desktop
    Then I copied the contacts file to mobile thumb and imported them to Windows Address on another computer. From there I synced with my IPhone.
    I found out Windows Address mirrors anything under Outlook. Because my Outlook is old and in the wrong format using my Windows Address will do the same thing thus I needed to copy info to another computer in order to use Windows Address. I will upgrade Outlook and see how that works but for now I have a temporary fix to problem.
    Hope this helps.

  • GMail Contact Groups in Mail

    Hello. I recently decided to check out GMail's new IMAP feature with Apple Mail in Leopard. It seems to be working fine except that I do not know how to use GMail's contact groups. I run a soccer team so I send out updates to the entire team at once by using a group I setup in GMail. Is there a way to use this group while using Apple Mail? It seems Mail just uses my Address Book on my Mac, which has all my individual contacts, but no groups. (Can you even setup groups in Address Book?)
    If anyone knows how to use GMail groups in Mail I would appreciate the help! Thanks.

    You now every app has to get it's own password now? You'll find it at settings => password for programs and settings
    GoogleMail app for iOS will work with your normal password. Mail on IOS and MacOS has to get their own password.
    If you're fine with this answer, please mark it as helpful or even best answer. Thank you!
    If you're not okay with this, remember me and I will try to help you further!

  • How to get gmail contacts "groups" into the Touch

    In gmail I have my contacts organized into in groups. When I sync, all the contacts show up but the gmail groups structure is not there. The groups page on the Touch lists "All Contacts", "All from my PC", etc. This is completely useless. Is there a way to preserve Google groups on the Touch? thanks

    How are you accessing gmail on the iPhone?
    If you are simply going to the mobile site, there is no way to accomplish what you want.
    If you have it set up as POP3 or IMAP4, these only pull email, not contacts.
    You can set up Gmail as an exchange account and sync contacts, calendar, and mail.

  • 2 way contact sync with gmail contacts

    I set up gmail account on iPhone (3GS), using Exchange option. When I enable the Contacts in iPhone setup, I see that all my Gmail contacts have transferred over to the iPhone (and I now have duplicates when looking at "All Contacts," but see there is a separate Gmail Contacts group which has only those Gmail contacts.
    However, if I add a new contact to Address Book, and then sync, that new contact does NOT sync over to Gmail, so it appears to be one way. I do have mobileme, but I realize that probably doesn't get it over to Gmail.
    So.... 2 questions:
    1) Is there a way to get true two way sync of contacts between iPhone and Gmail
    2) Is there any way to NOT have duplicate contacts when choosing All Contacts on iPhone (I suppose I could just leave it on Gmail Contacts, which if syncing 2 way, should show everything)...
    Thanks--

    Adding a contact on the phone syncs up to the Gmail contacts online satisfactorily (although I haven't tested different additions, like Fred & Wilma, vs. Barney)
    Editing contacts on the phone syncs up somewhat.  Eg, I have Barney Rubble, and edit it to show Barney & Betty Rubble. In the notes, I put 'Bam-Bam'.  The edited note will show up, but the name change will not.
    I'm resorting to the brute force method.  Deleting the contact entirely, and re-entering it.

  • I get an Internal LR/Gmail error "Couldn't get 'My Contacts' group id".  Could this be due to a Gmail password change and if so how do I rectify it?

    Rodger,
    Thank you for your gracious welcome . . .
    and thank you for your swift response . . .
    and thank you for your information (and encouragement!).
    Yes, I read that too, but searched in vain for the specifity of, say, your direction:
    "Go ahead and update to 8.0.2, as it contains the 8.0.1 update."
    So I shall!
    Again, many thanks.

  • One way to use Gmail contact via EAS airsync.

    As the Gmail provide Exchange service, we can use EAS airsync on iPhone.
    1,If you contact is in you SIM card, you should import you contacts inti iPhone then use iTunes to transfer your contacts into Gmail contact. We can register a new gmail account for empty contact.
    2,edit your contact in new gmail contacts.
    3,export the contacts as a file, and import it into your using gmail contact. Note: the iPhone only sync "my contact group" in gmail. we can set other contact we do not want to sync in other group.
    4, add exchange account in iPhone, server:m.google.com Accont:[email protected]
    5,when you open contact sync, select "delete your phone contact".
    6,you can also open clendars sync as well.
    7,check your contact on iPhone, you will found "google cotacts" in group,this is same as gmail contacts "my contacts" group. and you can search all gmail contact in Global address list.
    Have fun with it.

    If the support isn't there, you can't add it yourself.
    However, you could try the Gmail Java app to read email:

  • How do I sync Google Contacts groups to iPhone

    I have all my Google contacts in different Groups.  I would like to have those same Google contacts groups synced to iPhone Contacts app. I followed instructions to sync iPhone Contacts with my Google account.  All my Google contacts did sync to iPhone but there were no iPhone contact groups created. So I have one huge list of contacts. How do I sync the Google contacts groups?  Thank you

    Hi - from the"iPhone 6 User Guide for iOS 8.1",I followed the following steps:
    Use your Google contacts: Go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars, tap your Google account,
    then turn on Contacts.
    So I entered Gmail and password. Then withing Contacts app I pressed the Sync link.  Afterwards I've got all contacts in one big list, just not categorized by Google groups.

  • Mail not send messages from contacts groups

    I have two contacts groups but when i send a email to one of them I receive the seme message for all addreses:
    Unable to send the message through the X server The server "smtp.gmail.com" did not recognize the following recipients:
    The smtp configuration it's ok because the other group could be sending without problems.
    Thanks

    Having the same problem, but in addition, I also get a warning message next to the account in the list of accounts under Inbox (I have several; the icon is a triangle inside a circle).
    Out of 10 emails accounts checking, a bunch will randomly be unable to connect to the server. I have a solid internet connection, so thats not the problem.
    Gotta get back to webmail to see what I'm missing...

  • Hei , i was window user an just switched to ipone 6 , can i merge my contacts group from windows to IOS ? please quide

    hei , i was window user an just switched to ipone 6 , can i merge my contacts group from windows to IOS ? please quide

    Right, I finally managed to get it sorted out.
    iCloud only accept version 3.0 vcards, and the one I was using were version 2.1 so that's why it wasn't picking it up. So the easy way to get that sorted out is, use a gmail account.
    I know you don't wanna do it because you think it's too much hassle and stuff, but trust me it only takes 5 minutes and that's it.
    1. Create a Gmail Account.
    2. Export your Old VCard files to the Gmail Account.
    3. Now Import them from Gmail to your PC again.
    And, that's it, that's just makes the new imported version in 1 file contains your all contacts in version 3.0. Now you can just upload that on icloud and then sync it with your iphone.
    That's what I did and it worked, and I am sure if you wanna replace this file in the Contacts folder under your User Account in Windows and then try to sync Contacts in Tunes, it should work, but as I said, I did it with iCloud and it worked for me. So aye, that's pretty much it. Phewwww..
    Been searching for it for the whole day and it took 5 minutes in the end, badass...
    Anyway, don't lose hope and always Google for everything!

  • HT4623 how do i sync my contacts in iPhone4S into gmail contacts?

    How do I sync my contact in iPhone4S into gmail contacts?

    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.

  • IPhone and Gmail contacts do sync - but not Apple Address Book

    Hi,
    iPhone and Gmail contacts sync just fine. Only my Apple Address Book do not sync at all - neither with the iPhone nor Gmail.
    I have activated syncing options with gmail in both Address Book and iTunes iPhone settings.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks

    ShamRockNRoll,
    Have you noticed if it's a specific group that is not syncing correctly, or is it random contacts from all groups? If it's just a specific group, you may need to delete that group in Address Book and recreate it.
    If it's random contacts from all groups and if all of the contacts you want on the iPhone are in Address Book, you can just select "Contacts" from the Advanced section down at the bottom of the Info tab. That will replace all contacts on the iPhone with those that you have selected to sync from Address Book.
    Hope this helps,
    Jennifer B.

  • Mass insert to contact groups

    Hi All,
    I am trying to create a contact group for sending a mass text message.
    I would like to select mutiple contacts to insert into the group rather than inserting 200+ contacts one at a time, but this does not seem to be an option.
    I have tried to do this on the blackberry, or on Outlook with the idea of transferring the group to the Blackberry, but neither method seems to be viable.
    Any ideas?

    what didn't make sense?
    create a group or several groups or add to those groups in gmail contacts on your home computer & it will sync to the phone.
    have you even tried to add a group in gmail contacts, as described, to see if it really works?
