How do I sync all my contacts on my iPhone to iCloud?

When I sync my iPhone to iCloud not all my contacts on my phone are uploaded, where are the rest of my contacts and why won't they upload.  Also my contacts won't sync to my Outlook anymore when I sync my phone.  The list on Outlook matches the one from iCloud though.  What am I missing?

DON'T! too many ppl are reporting losing all data. Wait until a second version (or 3rd). I wish I had.

    Go to Settings>iCloud, sign in with your Apple ID to create your account if you haven't already done so, turn Contacts on and choose Merge with iCloud when prompted.  If you are syncing contacts from an external account (Gmail, Yahoo, exchange, etc.) you will need to take additional steps to add them.  Let me know if that's the case.

    Hi Kinnera2740,
    On the old phone go into Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars.  Are there any email accounts listed here?  Such as Google, Yahoo, Hotmail, etc?
    If so, tap on each of them and check the 'Contacts' option.  If it is turned on, this means that contact syncing is enabled for that account and that your contacts may already be synced to that mail account.
    Also check Settings > iCloud and look for the 'Contacts' option.  Is it enabled?  If so, then it is possible that some contacts could be synced to your iCloud account as well.  You can check to see which contacts are in which account by going to the Contacts app on your old phone and pressing the 'Groups' button in the top left corner.  You may see several groups here.  Uncheck all groups and then check each group one at a time to check and see how many contacts are synced to each account.  You may need to add the same mail accounts to your new phone and enable contact syncing to have the contacts from the mail servers sync down to the new phone.

    Sync old iPhone 3G to iTunes on your computer. Then connect new iPhone 4S to computer and Restore from Back-Up of the 3G. This command can be found, on Windows you right mouse click on iPhone name in left column of iTunes, on Mac Option click on iPhone name in left column of iTunes.

  • How do I delete all the contacts from my iPhone 3?

    How do I delete all the contacts from my old iPhone 3 without having to do each one individually?

    If you've already deleted "everything else"...then plug your phone into a power source and: Settings>General>Reset>Erase All Content & Settings.
    Make sure you plug into a power source first...not your computer...as on an iPhone 3G, this can take some time. When finished, all data will be gone.

  • HT204053 how can i sync calendar and contacts between my iPhone and new Mac book pro?

    I use an iPad and iPhone to maintain my schedule and contacts. I just purchased a Macbook Pro...how do I sync info on my other devices with my Macbook?
    I have a current iCloud ID...
    Would the info from the calander on the iPad automatically "push" to the Macbook, if i have everything configured properly?
    Thanks

    Yes,
    you need to Sign Out of the wrong Apple ID - lower button in ICloud under system preferences.
    Otherwise you cannot change the current Apple ID
    Then you will be able to put a new apple ID and sign in.

  • How to I delete all the contacts on my iphone?

    I sync my iphone with my computer at work and at home. I now have over a thousand contacts and many are duplicates (like the same name 10 times)and I would like to erase all the contacts in one action and resync with only my home computer. My "personal group" is fine but "all contacts" group is where the problem is. I use Outlook for contact management but is there another contact manager application that works better?

    If you've still not found the command then,
    Connect your ipnhone --> Open iTunes -->
    Under Devices on the left bar of iTunes click on your iphone -->
    Now click on the Tab named Info -->Scroll down to Advanced Section -->
    Click the checkbox next to Contacts under the ehading Replace information on this phone -->
    Now click apply or sync.
    (Do not forget to make sure that it synchronizes after applying this setting)

  • HT201269 How do I sync my mail contacts from my iPhone to my iPad?

    My mail contacts are currently synched from my laptop Outlook to my iPhone.  I've added Att/Yahoo mail, and am going to get rid of the laptop and Outlook.  I bought a new iPad Air and have Yahoo mail on it, but my contacts didn't sync over when the Apple technician synched the two devices.  I do get my Yahoo mail emails on both devices, but my iPad doesn't have the contacts.  How can I sync the contacts as well as the emails?

    If you go into settings, mail, contacts and calendars. Then tap on the name of your yahoo mail account, you'll see the option to sync contacts, calendars, reminders and notes associated with that e-mail account.
    Another thing to do would be to go into the settings, iCloud and enable iCloud syncing of contacts across the devices. (meaning you'd have to enable it on both  your phone and ipad.

  • TS4083 How can I sync all email accounts to my iphone?

    There used to be an info section in iTunes that allowed you to sync email accounts from your iMac to your phone but this option seems to have been removed now from iTunes. Has it moved to iCloud somehwere? If so, how can I sync the accounts from my iMac? Thanks is advance for your help!

    Thanks! I knew how to do that already :/ Just upgraded to a 5s and didn't want to manually enter my accounts and server settings again (there are 10 email accounts) as I actually don't remember most of the passwords. I backed up settings from my old iPhone 4 before swapping the sims over and have managed to restore the 5s from that backup which copied over all of my email accounts, great success! However, just had to access cpanel for all accounts to reset the passwords as they are not copied over.
    Thank you for your prompt reply!

    I foolishly used iCloud as my backup inststead of my usual PC backup.
    I thought Icloud could be an automatic backup but I cant find in iCloud any of my email addresees..
    Frustrated and not an expert on PC.
    Regards to anyone who can help.
    iCloud is not a backup system and trying to use it as such will not work (as you see) do you have copies of your contacts anywhere else?

    How can I send my exisiting contacts to icloud. It is only backing up new contacts

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    It sounds like those contacts may be in another account on your phone. I believe you can only move them to the iCloud account on a mac/PC.
