How can I sync my iPad to my computer & sync my contacts to iCloud?

I keep my ipad3 up tp date not my PC. I would like to sync my iPad to my new PC. I have downloaded purchases from iTunes. I have music & photos on my iPad I would like to transfer to my PC. Also on the sync screen in iTunes it only gives me two choices of contacts to sync - Windows or Google. I use iCloud contacts. I see options lower on the screen to add a different set of contacts but it is grayed out and I can't use it. Can anyone help please?

HT204150 How can I sync my contacts from icloud to my new i phone 5s??? Help

How can I sync my contacts - please help

Welcome to the Apple community.
If they are iCloud contacts, just log into iCloud on your new phone.
You should restore from a back up of your old phone though to get things like your photos and other app data onto your new phone.

Sync your iPad with computer iTunes.

If you have iCloud configured in iPhone, do the same for iPad.

How can I sync my contact list from laptop to iphone?

How can I sync my contact list from laptop to iphone? My contact list is in Microsoft Outlook. I want to go from laptop to iphone and not vice versa.

I use iCloud to sync calendar and contacts using Outlook 2010 on my Win 8.1 Update 1 laptop, Outlook 2010 on a Win 7 desktop, an iPhone 5S, an iPhone 4 and an iPad 4. For example if I make a change/add/delete a contact on my iPhone 5S the change is reflected over on the other devices basically instantaneously...

You need to setup iCloud on an iOS device first...

Ok.
Open System Preferences, Apple Logo icon in the menu bar and then System Preferences or the Sys Pref iocon in the Dock and go to the Internet Accounts area and look at your iCloud account. It should list what is and isn't synced by a checkmark next to each item.
Also in the Contacts app click on Contacts in the menu bar and select Preferences then accounts and make sure your iCloud account is listed. You can also do that from the Internet Accounts area in System Preferences.

How can I sync my contacts????

Thank you for your help. Your answer helped me the best . I have 2 I.d.'s because I my daughter was on my first account and I was getting all her text messages and it was messing up us both because I would get her stuff and she would get mine. I use my phone for personal use and work. I needed one separate account so my personal things stood personal. I'm sure there was a way to stop it but I'm always so busy working that I didn't have time and having another account was the easiest and least time consuming way.

I've upgraded my iPhone4 to iOS5 but there're no records show in my iPhone4 nor in the iCloud, but there're records show in my iCal. How can I sync my iCal to iCloud or back to iPhone4?

I've upgraded my iPhone4 to iOS 5 and selcted to use iCloud to sync my calendar. However, there're no records in my iPhone 4 calendar nor in the iCloud calendar, but I can see the records in my iCal from my iMac. How can I sync the records back to my iPhone 4 calendar or iCloud calendar?
Thanks!

Thanks, but I checked iCloud and it has none of them.
If it backed up to my laptop, that died and I just got the new computer. The one that's crashed won't even boot, so there's no way to even tell if it was syncing the contacts along with all the phone photos. Literally happened at the same time - it was because I had the new computer that I was finally able to pull the photos off the phone and make room for the upgrade. It had refused to upgrade for lack of space for some time.
I had thought it was set to sync to iCloud but it vanished from BOTH my phone and the cloud. That's why I'm so angry about it.

my laptop is not working anymore so i bought a new one , my contacts on my iphone are synced , but only on icloud,
anyway to sync these contacts from icloud or download them to my new laptop !?

Why would you downgrade your OS? That is neither supported by Apple or recommended by them, and is no doubt the cause of the problems you are now having.
To sync with iCloud requires iOS 5.
Update to the OS that iCloud supports and you will be able to do what you want, exactly as Apple recommends.

How can I sync my outlook to icloud calendar?

I have an iphone 4 and was wondering how I would sync my outlook office 365 calendar with my icloud calendar?

You can sync by adding your 365 account under "Mail, Contracts, Calenders" "Add Account" then Outlook and finally enter your 365 email and password; the rest should happen automatically. Don't forget to go in to Sync settings in Outlook and click the things you want to sync.

HT201269 How can i sync my contacts from the iPhone to my mac pro?

Hi
I am trying to sync my contacts on my IPhone to the mac pro but it seems not work.
Any one faced this issue and solved, Please advice.
Regards

If you want your contacts to remain in sync across iOS devices, then you can use any Exchange-type of account. For example, once you have a "clean" set of contacts with no duplicates, you could upload that into iCloud so that any change you make from your iPad would be reflected on your iPhone. You don't have to use iCloud for e-mail since your devices can pull a contact from iCloud for use with GMail or Yahoo.
But you can also set GMail up as an Exchange account if you don't want to use iCloud. The GMail account type in iOS is not Exchange, but you can set it up that way:
http://support.google.com/mobile/bin/answer.py?l=en&topic=14252&answer=138740
The benefit of doing this is (a) your Google contacts remain in sync across all your devices, and (b) your GMail will then support Push notification. Just one caveat, when you do this then the default behavior when you delete an e-mail is such that it is archived to your "All Mail" folder in GMail. The only way to change this behavior is to use your device's Safari to navigate to m.google.com/sync and change the setting on Google's server for each of your devices. This is a one-time thing, but important if you want trashed e-mails to really go to Trash.
As far as Contact Management Software options to clean things up, Google search is the only recommendation I have
