How do I add category to contacts in icloud?

Having a few issues syncing my iPhone/iCloud with my Outlook. When I turned on iCloud all my contacts were moved from my Outlook Contact list to iCloud. Problem I'm having is that the cloud will not recognize the category - is there something I need to do to fix this?

Have you already tried to delete the contacts with the following steps:
1. sign in at www.cloud.com
2. open "Contacts"
3. click on the little "Settings" cog wheel icon in the lower left hand corner
4. choose "select all"
5. and then choose "delete"

  • How do I add multiple addresses/contacts in an email tread to my contact list without having to enter each at a time?

    How do I add multiple addresses/contacts in an email tread to my contact list without having to enter each at a time? I have AppleScript but don't see "add address" in any of the boxes/drop-downs. 

    Sorry, but Address Book does not allow you to select more than one email address to send to in a group. There's really no reason why people need multiple copies of a message, anyway; they have the option of forwarding email to another email address of theirs.

  • HT4967 how do i add an ical to my icloud

    How do i add an ical to my icloud?
    Thanks,
    Todd

    "iCal" was the name of the calendar app/program used before Mountain Lion, now it's called Calendar.
    Since "iCal" is the name of an app, I don't know what you mean by "add"ing it to icloud.
    If you mean you want your calendars synced to other devices via icloud, then you need to go to the iCloud setting (on iOS look in Settings, and System Preferences on a mac) and turn on Calendar.
    To add a new calendar to the set of calendars:
    If on icloud.com with a browser, click the Calendars button in the upper left, click Edit, then the + button.
    On a mac or device, look for the same kind of thing.

    How do I delete all the contacts in Icloud so that I can start over, as if I never used Icloud before?

    There is an option, under Advanced, on the Info Pane in iTunes to replace all contacts on your phone with what's on your computer for the next sync only. So, edit everything on your computer & use that method.

  • HT204150 Help! My iCloud contacts is fine. The contacts in my iPhone are a mess. Tons of dupes, folks long deleted etc...How do I only have the contacts in iCloud sync to my iphone?

    My iCloud contacts is fine. The contacts in my iPhone are a mess. Tons of dupes, folks long deleted etc...How do I only have the contacts in iCloud sync to my iphone?

    Download the free app My Contacts Backup.  Go to Settings>iCloud, turn Contacts to Off, when prompted choose Delete from My iPhone.  Check the contacts on your phone.  If you have any left on your phone, launch My Contacts Backup, tap the gear shaped icon on the bottom right, scroll to the bottom and tap Remove All Contacts.  When finished, go back to Settings>iCloud and turn Contacts back to On to sync the unduplicated contacts back to your phone from iCloud.
    Also, be sure you aren't trying to sync your contacts with both iCloud and iTunes or you will get duplicates.

  • How to I sync my iphone contacts to icloud without losing contacts?

    how to I sync my iphone contacts to icloud without losing contacts? I am afraid to turn "on" the button to sync to the cloud because I am not sure if the contacts from my phone merge to the icloud or is it that the icloud information merges to my phone? My phone has the most current data and at one point I did have the contact syncing to the cloud, but then turned it off. Now, I want to turn it back on.
    How do I know I won't lose the data on my phone only to be replaced with old data from the cloud?

    it does not seem to work for me. I have backed up my iphone 5s with a back up from my previous 4. the back-up process works fine, I can see all my contacts in the phone but then I activate icloud (on which there are no contacts) and all my contacts disappear instantly... I tried 5 times now and everytime the same result. I'm considering to stop using the cloud all together.
    I've tried to manually back-up to icloud immediatly after restoring back-up on the phone, it didn't work.
    please help !

  • How do I add a smaller contact list to my phone and eliminate my original?

    My Mac Address Book has more than 1,000 contacts. When I first got my iPhone, I synced all of these contacts into the phone. Now I want to cut that list in half. So I made a new group on my Mac Address Book. I'd like to sync that list to the phone. But I'm afraid that I'll just wind up adding 500 to the already listed 1,000.
    How do I bring the new smaller list to the phone, eliminate the larger list from the phone, but continue to sync contacts that I put on to the phone into my Mac desktop Address book?
    Sorry if this is confusing.
    Thanks!

    Hello Elaine.
    So I made a new group on my Mac Address Book. I'd like to sync that list to the phone. But I'm afraid that I'll just wind up adding 500 to the already listed 1,000.
    Not true IF you use the following settings.
    Under Sync Address Book Contacts, select Selected Groups.
    Select this newly created Address Book Group only that contains 500 contacts in the Groups list and then sync.
    When completed, the 500 contacts along with this single Group will be available on the iPhone only.
    When adding a new contact to the iPhone's Address Book, you can add the new contact to the primary "All Contacts" Group or to the Group name that contains the 500 contacts transferred from your Mac.
    Select the Group name to enter the contact in this Group which will be available in both - All Contacts and this Group name. If you enter a new contact in the primary All Contacts Group, it won't be available in the Group that contains the 500 contacts.
    Syncing the iPhone will transfer any new contacts entered on the iPhone to your Address Book accordingly.

    Hello Willart1,
    It sounds like you would like to associate your iPhone to your iTunes Store account. This article should help you do that:
    iTunes Store: Associating a device or computer to your Apple ID
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4627
    Open iTunes.
    Sign in to your Apple ID by choosing Store > Sign In from the iTunes menu.
    Choose Store > View My Account from the iTunes menu.
    From the Account Information screen, click Manage Devices.
    Next to each device or computer name, you will be able to see when each device or computer was associated with your Apple ID. You will also be able to track how many days remain before your associated devices or computers can be associated with a different Apple ID.
    Note: If no devices have been associated with the Apple ID, then the Manage Devices section will not be visible.
