How can I download/update my contacts between my MacBook address and my iPhone 5?

Hi,
Can anyone help me on this problem?
How can I download/update my contacts between my MacBook address and my iPhone 5? They don't sync with each other.  Thanks

Welcome to Apple Discussions, Catwang!
You can use iTunes to sync the two devices. See the KB article, iOS: How to transfer or sync content to your computer and iTunes for Mac: sync contacts, calendar and other info.
If you want to use iCloud, your MacBook  needs to use at least OS 10.7.4 or later. See Set up iCloud on all your Devices.

    What country are you in ? Depending upon what country that you are in then you might be able to redownload them on your Mac's iTunes via the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the iTunes store homepage
    If you're not in a country where TV programmes can be redownloaded then connect the iPad to your Mac's iTunes and use the File > Devices > Transfer Purchases to copy them over from your iPad

  • How can I download Microsoft office excel  for my MacBook Pro Mac OSX version for free. Please help me!

    How can I download Microsoft office excel for my MacBook Pro  for free?

    You can't. Excel is a commercial product sold by Microsoft in an Office "package" and not as a stand-alone product.
    If you need to be able to open and save Excel documents on your Mac, however, you could try the free LibreOffice.

  • How can I download videos from youtube with may MacBook Pro? I cannot download with real player. So how can I do it?

    How can I download videos from youtube with may MacBook Pro? I cannot download with real player. So how can I do it?

    There are two apps that I know of - and I would also swear that they come from the same developer, although they've different names. Both have free trials and both cost $40 (but both do 'other' video conversion as well).
    One is WonderShare - I bought this one and it works very well for downloading YouTube videos as well as converting just about any file format you can think of.
    The other is iSkysoft Video Converter (just noticed that it's now $36).
    I tried them both and finally decided on WonderShare. Give them both a trial run and decide if you like either one enough to buy it. I don't know of any 'free' software that will allow you to download and convert YouTube videos, but perhaps someone else will come along and know of something...
    Good luck,

    The only way to sync Notes is through a mail server. If you don't want to use iCloud, you'll have to use some other mail account, or run your own mail server under OS X Server. The latter is a job for advanced users only.

  • HT4972 How can i download a folder of photos from my computer and have them appear on my ipad in the same order as they were in on my computer

    How can I download a photo folder from my computer and have them appear on my ipad in the same order as they were on my computer

    The sort order on iOS 5+ is by the photos 'date modified' field, on iOS 4 it's the 'date taken' - so you will need to modify that field on your photos.
    Or you could consider using a third-party photo management app such as Photo Manager Pro which allows you to change the sort order within the app e.g. by date, size, type or you can drag them into your own sort order.

  • When I connect my digital camera to my iPad it will only download the stills, not the videos. How can I download the videos? I have the USB and HDMI connectors for the iPad.

    When I connect my Leica digital camera to my iPad it will only download the photos not the videos. How can I download the videos anyone please?

    If your camera has an SD memory card, use the camera connection kit & the SD card to download to the iPad. That's what I do.
    Another way that will work. Download the video(s) to your computer. Then you can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
    First, Plug the USB flash drive into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie file into the folder. The movie file must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov).
    Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie file should appear & you can import.

  • How do I update my contacts on my MacBook pro from my iPhone or iMac?

    my contacts on my MacBook pro are out of date. How do I update them from my iPhone or Imac?

    Hey there dgt11,
    It seems like you may have missed that section of the article I provided, so I will go ahead and highlight it for you:
    OS X Lion or later
    You can use these steps with Contacts on OS X Mountain Lion or later or Address Book on OS X Lion. After each step, check to see if the issue still exists.
    Make sure iCloud Contacts is on
    Choose Apple () > System Preferences, click iCloud, and select Contacts. 
    See which version of OS X you're using
    Make sure that you're using OS X Lion v10.7.5 or later. Learn how to see which version of OS X you're using.
    Check your Internet connection
    Try to go to www.apple.com. If you can't connect to the Internet, your iCloud contacts won't update in Contacts or Address Book. Get help with your Internet connection.
    Open a secure website to see if you can access ports 80 and 443. Safari requires access to port 443 to push and fetch updates to and from the iCloud Contacts servers.
    Check your account details
    Choose Apple () > System Preferences, and click iCloud. Make sure that you're signed in to the same iCloud account that you're using on your other supported devices.
    Refresh Contacts or Address Book
    If recent changes don't appear in Contacts or Address Book, try to refresh by quitting and reopening the app.
    Check your settings
    Make sure that the contacts are syncing through iCloud and not through a third-party, such as Google or Yahoo. iCloud won't sync contacts that are associated with a different service.
    Open Contacts (or Address Book on OS X Lion).
    Click All [iCloud Account Name] in the left sidebar.
    Search for the contact that wasn't syncing properly.
    If the contact isn't visible, then the contact exists in a third-party account, not iCloud.
    You can import the contact from a third-party account into iCloud.
    If recent changes to contacts on OS X don't appear on your other devices and you're syncing contacts with multiple accounts on your device (iCloud, Gmail, Yahoo), make sure that iCloud is your default account for Contacts:
    Open Contacts (or Address Book on OS X Lion).
    Choose Contacts > Preferences (or Address Book > Preferences on OS X Lion).
    On the General tab, make sure that your iCloud account is the default.
    After setting up iCloud Contacts, you might need to quit and reopen Contacts or Address Book on your Mac. Then make sure that you set up your account correctly in Contacts or Address Book:
    Open Contacts (or Address Book on OS X Lion).
    Choose Contacts > Preferences (or Address Book > Preferences on OS X Lion).
    Click Accounts.
    Make sure that your iCloud account has the correct name in the Apple ID field.
    Turn iCloud Contacts off and back on
    Quit Contacts (or Address Book on OS X Lion).
    Choose Apple () > System Preferences and click iCloud.
    Deselect Contacts.
    Click Keep Contacts.
    Close System Preferences and wait about a minute.
    Open System Preferences and choose iCloud.
    Select Contacts.
    Open Contacts (or Address Book).
    Restart your computer
    Restart your computer and check the issue.

  • How can I download apps on my Ipad4 without having it on my Iphone in the same time?

    Why when I download new apps on my Ipad 4 the apps goes on my Iphone too? I know this is the same Apple id but how can I resolve this? Do I have to have anothe apple id for each ?

    Do you currently have automatic downloads turned 'on' for apps on your iPhone : Settings > iTunes & App Stores (Settings > Stores if it's not on iOS 6) ? If you do then try turning it off, that should then mean that any apps that you buy on your iPad don't automatically download on your phone as well.
    Or if it happens when you sync the phone to your computer's iTunes, then when you next connect the phone on its Apps tab make sure that the 'automatically sync new apps' tickbox under the listbox of apps is unticked

  • How can i download my word documents from my macbook pro to my IPad?

    I have many documents on my macbook pro that are word documents i want to download to my new IPad. How can i do this. I have read there is a way to do it through ITunes, but i have no idea how to do that either?
    Help

    You can copy documents to the iPad, but first you need one or more apps on the iPad that supports the type of document that you want to copy - unlike a 'normal' computer the iPad doesn't have a file system, and everything on it has to be associated with an app.
    For word documents the options include Apple's Pages app, and from third-parties apps such as Documents To Go ('premium' version) and QuickOffice Pro HD.
    As to how you then get the file to your chosen app will depend upon what the app supports - different apps will have different ways of copying their content to/from a computer e.g. via the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab when connected to iTunes, via wifi, email, dropbox etc.
