How do I set up my iphone to sync with my outlook account?

Hi maryannmc,
You have two options.
1. You can plug the iPhone into iTunes and select the "Info" tab and choose "Sync Mail Accounts" and this will transfer the settings across.
2. In the iPhone you can go to Settings > General > Mail, Contacts and Calendars and choose "Add account"
You will need to know if your account is POP, IMAP or Exchange and this will help determine what settings you need to enter and how to set it up so both your computer and iPhone can receive email.
The iPhone can add most popular accounts with ease such as gmail, yahoo or hotmail.
Hope this helps,
MiFFMaN

My iPhone 4s is retaining all emails in its inbox yet I am deleting them in Outlook. How do I get it to sync with my outlook account and delete the emails?

My iphone 4s is retaining all of my emails in it's inbox. I have been deleting emails in outlook but they are not deleting on the iphone. How do I set up my iphone so it is a secondary account and syncs with outlook on my Mac?

I had that problem and seemed to have solved it by deleting my email accounts and then reinstalling. I think there was a HARD reset involved also, but since it was just after I got my new 4S (6 weeks ago), I'm not sure about the reset.

ITunes settings reset with every new version, and I get: "...the information on the iphone is synced with another user account"

Windows 7 64-bit with MS Outlook 2010. I've seen this now probably 10 times. When I first installed iTunes, I selected:
Preferences -> Devices -> "Prevent iPhonse, iPhones and iPads from syncing automatically".
and on my iPhone, I selected:
Info -> Sync Contacts with: Outlook.
Info -> Sync Calendars with: Outlook
Info -> Other -> Sync notes with: Outlook
This works great, and the settings stick. As soon as apple releases any new version (even minor) of iTunes and I install, I immediately receive: "...the information on the iphone is synced with another user account", and have to merge my calendar and contacts, but then once I get into iTunes, I find that ALL of the above settings (prevent syncing, sync calendar, contacts, notes) get reset and are turned off! I am running as a user account with Admin privaleges, but I don't right-click -> "Run as administrator" when I perform the iTunes update.
To reiterate, once I change the settings back, things work normally until the next iTunes update at which it gives me that sync error, and resets my sync options.
Any idea? Thanks!

Is someone else using the PC and iTunes?
Create another user for the PC with your name, and try syncing that way.
This way it wont conflic with the other user.

Setting up your iPhone to sync with 1and1 Exchange Server.

_+*You *must have* iPhone firmware version 2.0 and higher to sync to Exchange Services+.*
iPhone and 1and1 exchange work amazingly well. Most folks out there are still using the IMAP side of the 1and1 Exchange service. *"THIS IS NOT FULLY FUNCTIONING EXCHAHGE"*! Here is how to really set up your phone to sync Mail, Calendars, and Contacts with 1and1 Exchange accounts.
From your home screen:
1: Go to the settings control panel on your iphone.
2: Touch the "*Mail, Contacts, Calendars*" tab.
3: Touch the "*Add Account...*" tab.
4: Touch the "*Microsoft Exchange*" tab.
A screen asking you to "*Enter your Exchange account information*" will appear.
5: type your email address attached to your 1and1.com exchange account.
ex. "[email protected]"
6: type your domainusername. Your 1and1 username is one that is assigned to you by 1and1.
the username must be typed out in this manner: exchangee123456789
*If you already know your 1and1 Exchange Username then skip to step 7.*
Your 1and1 username starts with an "e" and its followed by nine numbers (ex.: e123456789). If you do not know this username you have to go to your Administrator panel at the 1and1 site,(Here is the URL to the admin page. *http://admin.1and1.com*).At the prompt enter your customer number *which is located on your monthly 1and1 invoice* followed by your password. if you have never seen this control panel you will have to sign in and get a password to access this area. Once in the Admin area under the packages tab click the url labled "*1&1 Microsoft Exchange*". You will now be in the *Administration Tab*. Now under the *communications tool* section click the URL labeled *"Microsoft® Exchange Account Overview"*. You will now see a list of the exchange usernames in that exchange package. Find your username and either print out the page or write the number down.
7: type your 1and1 exchange account password.
8: type a description that best corresponds with your 1and1 exchange account. As a suggestion you should type a description that makes your account stand out. "*ex. 1and1 exchange account*" (this will be helpful later in distinguishing what calendars come from which account if you are syncing multiple calendars.)
9: touch the "Next" button at the top right of the screen.
iPhone will connect with the 1and1 exchange server and authenticate your account. If the authentication fails check one of your entries then try again.
10: once iPhone authenticates your account a field called "Server" will appear between the "Email" and "Username" fields. Enter "exchange.1and1.com" into this field.
11: touch the "Next" button at the top right of the screen.
12: Select which part of the Exchange Services you would like sync with your iPhone.
ie. *Mail, Contacts, or Calendars*. (Simply slide the on or off switch next to the service you either wish to sync or exclude.)
13: once you have chosen your services touch the "Save" button at the top right of the screen.
iPhone will once again contact the 1and1 Exchange server. You will be returned to the mail settings screen.
You are now done
If you don't have any contacts on your iPhone just go look at your address book now. If you chose to sync your address book all of your contacts have populated themselves into your iPhone contacts tab.
AWESOME
Welcome to Exchange on the iPhone!
Some thing to try to verify your Exchange account.
1: Create a Calendar or Address book entree in your iPhone. Now watch it appear on your Outlook account.
2: Tell a friend with Outlook to invite you to a calendar event. You will receive an invitation right there on your iPhone screen.
Have fun and enjoy your new iPhone.

Unless Apple decides to license ActiveSync from MS, this will not happen.
Apple hasn't done so since OS X was first released for whatever the reason or reasons and although always/never should not be used, I'm not sure how likely this is.
I venture to say that Apple is well aware that the iPhone is limited to business use as is - at least for those with an Exchange account - with a company or IT department not willing to enable IMAP account access for email accounts. Initially, the iPhone was not designed nor intended for the enterprise/business market as is a Blackberry, Palm or Windows Mobile device. It is obvious from the commercials that the focus - at the present time anyway, is as a consumer device. The iPhone/iPod Touch SDK scheduled to be released on March 6 may change this but what will come out of the SDK and when is unknown at this point.
If you need to access your Exchange account with the iPhone and your company and IT department refuses to enable IMAP account access, there are no workarounds for this. There are ways to make accessing an IMAP account secure by requiring SSL for the incoming and outgoing mail servers and the iPhone also supports VPN - virtual private network access which is secure.
Other than that and you don't want to keep the iPhone for personal use, it is probably best to return it and wait until after the SDK is released to see what may turn up.

How to setup Mac contacts and iPhone to sync with google?

I have tried and tried, I setup the exchange account with my google info on my iPhone but what do I need to do0 on the Mac? I went to address book preferences and checked sync with google and entered my info I even then hit the sync now button in the toolbar but none of my contacts went to my google contacts.. I then created a test contact on the Mac and hit sync and nothing happened. I created a test contact on the iPhone and it did sync to google contacts on the web but not to my Mac address book? What am I doing wrong?
Ps: I have about 50 contacts on my iPhone and Mac previosly synced with mobile me, I did turn off mobile me before doing this. I do not have any contacts in my google contacts on the web, I never did.

How do I get my old iphone to sync with my new Macbook Pro?

I just bought a new Macbook Pro and was able to get all my files and such from my old computer, which was a Macbook about 4 years old. But the problem now is that when I plug in my iphone to the new computer it will not recognize the phone in my itunes. I authorized the computer for my itunes account and everything is updated I'm pretty sure... so how can I get my new computer to "accept" my iphone?

I've copied all of my iTune's library music from my PC to my new mac. Now how can my I get my iPhone to sync with this new iTunes?

I did the "home sharing" to get all of my music from my PC to my new mac (as told by a apple worker). Then I copied all of my music and playlists from the shared library to my actually itunes library. Now I don't know how to sync my iPhone up to this computer..? I've tried and it'll say it's syncing but the new song i bought to test it out won't show up on my phone.

When you buy your new iMac you will be able to have the installation process transfer all your applications, data (including music, pictures, documents, etc) and settings to your new computer. In the past that was done via Firewire. I'm not entirely sure of the process with the new iMacs that don't have firewire. I think it can be done via ethernet and probably via tha thunderbolt cord using a firewire adapter but you'll want to check that out.
    With the your new computer properly connected to your old computer, the initial booting of the new computer will include the ability to move everything over.
    If for some reason you don't want to do that (smart if you have some horrible software issue that is causing problems) you can connect your old computer to the new one and start it in Target Disk mode where it will be seen as a hard drive. You can then manually copy over all your music and import that into iTunes (and any other data you want).
    Somebody here will surely point you to directions for connecting an older iMac with no Thunderbolt to a newer iMac with no Firewire.

How can I get my phone not to sync with my outlook calendar?

Can someone please help?

Use sync cable to access itunes on your computer. Click on the phone under devices, click on the info tab in itune and it will bring up a window that allows you to select what the phone syncs with. You can select outlook or any other program you have on your computer. That includes Contacts, Calendars, Mail and notes. This infor is for a PC computer.

Calendar on iPhone not syncing with calendar on computer or mobileme

I was just chatting with one of the mac support people and we were cut off. Lee had just made me do a manual sync of my calendar to have my computer calendar up to date (my Mobile Me calendar was the same as my computer one, so all was well there...).
How do I now get my iPhone to sync with my computer/mobile me? And vice versa?
This is very frustrating. I feel like it has to do with my iPhone upgrade, but I don't know for sure. All help is appreciated.

You need to delete the old me.com calendar account, and ensure that Calendar is switched on in the iCloud account settings on your iPhone.

How can I set up two iPhones with the same contact, photos, music etc... but a different sim card and phone number. They will both be my phones, but one will be for use in other countries.

Phone A = phone with information you want duplicated
Phone B = phone that you want to copy from A
Backup Phone A.
Wipe Phone B using these instructions. What to do before selling or giving away your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
Phone B should be on the 'Hello' screen. Do not swipe it. Launch iTunes. Plug in Phone B.
When iTunes asks if you want to set up as new phone or restore from backup, choose restore from backup of Phone A.
After this setup, any changes to one phone (i.e. adding a contact, downloading an app) will have to be manually duplicated on the second phone, if that is your desire). Making changes to one phone will not affect the other after setup.

Do you mean iTunes library?
iTunes account is what you use to make iTunes purcahses.
iTunes library is what is on your computer.
It says my phone can only be set up woth one itunes account. How do I remove the previous account?
No, it tells you it can only be sync'd with one iTunes library.
Simplest way is to copy the entire /Music/iTunes/ folder (thisis the iTunes library) from old computer to new computer.
