How do I sync my contacts from my iPhone to my Mac using iTunes 11?

I ran into this same issue this morning and from what I read within the Apple Communities, the only way to now sync is to use iCloud. 
I set this up afterward and it seems to work. 
Make sure you choose your calendar's under the iCloud secition of your calandar's.

  • 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.

    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:

    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.

  • HT204150 im not sure why only a few of my contacts have been synced and not everyone? How do i sync all contacts from my iphone to my ipad? I have synced my phone with Itunes on my laptop.

    It's a good idea to backup your Mac Address Book application and iCal Calendars application from each application. This way you can go back and pull out items if you lose something. I do this everyday.

    Hey dthompson2108, 
    Thanks for participating in the Apple Support Communities. 
    You can sync contacts between your iPhone and MacBook Pro using iCloud or iTunes.
    See this link for help with setting up iCloud on your computer and device(s):
    Apple - iCloud - Learn how to set up iCloud on all your devices.
    Instead of turning on iCloud on your iPhone and Mac, you can sync using iTunes as explained in this article:

    All the best,

    Do you use iCloud? On both devices - Go to Settings>iCloud and turn on Contacts, calendars, reminders, and whatever you want to sync in those settings.

  • How do I sync my music from my iphone to my mac when I have created a itunes library on my old computer?

    How do I sync my music from my iphone to my mac when I have created a itunes library on my old Hewitt packard computer?
    Thought by connecting my phone to computer it would automatically duplicate. Only seems to work with a small amount of music which I downloaded through my mac
    Im no expert with computers so need some step by step advice
    I have over 1000 songs on my iphone and want to back it up on my mac itunes
    Want to upgrade my iphone and dont want to loose my music and ideally want to import it onto my new iphone
    Need help?

    Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was planned with you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss.  To use a device with a new computer you transfer the content from the old computer (or its backup) directly to the new computer, not the device to the new computer. Syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchases which can be transferred to a computer.
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only purchases from iTunes Store
    For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software.  See this document by turingtest2: Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991

  • How do I sync my contacts from my iphone to microsoft outlook (laptop)

    How do I sync my contacts and  my calendar from my iphone to my new laptop. I used Microsoft Office. I used to be able to add items in my phone and they would automatically be added to my laptop. Thanks.

    Do you still have your old phone? What kind of phone was/is the old one? If your old phone is an Android and you still have it turn it on. Hook up to WiFi, Go to your contacts and change them to google Contacts. Then go into your new phone and change it to Google Contacts as well.
    Then when Google syncs all of your contacts back to your phone, kill the Verizon Cloud / Backup Assistant on your phone and back them up to the very simple and fast Google.  Backup Assistant is not worth the time and effort to get things half right and is probably one of the worst apps I have ever seen.

  • HOW DO I SYNC MY CONTACTS FROM MY IPHONE 4 TO MY NEW MACBOOK PRO?  AFTER THE INITIAL SYNC!

    I SAW SIMULAR QUESTIONS....BUT THE ANSWERS SAID TO PLACE ONE UNIQUE CONTACT THEN SYNC UP YOUR COMPUTER FOR THE FIRST TIME.  WELL, I ALREADY PASSED THAT STEP.  SO IS THERE A WAY TO MERGE THE CONTACTS IN RETROSPECT? 

    You need to be on the same apple id on both devices, and sync the contacts.
    Or, save a back up on the iTunes from your iPhone 4, and then restore that back up on the iPhone 5C.

  • How can I sync my contacts from the iPhone to google contacts while checking for duplicates?

    I have been using Outlook to sync contacts and it works well.  Now I would like to get rid of Outlook and put the contacts that I have into my gmail and Yahoo contact accounts and keep all 3 in sync.  When I do it the first time, I'd like to be able to check for duplicates.  Is there a way to do this?

  • How can I sync my contacts from my iphone to my SIM??

    I have iPhone 3GS and it got broken, so I wanted to have it repaired, but I can't, because I have all my contacts in my iPhone and I can't find a way to put it on my SIM. Can somebody help me ?

    You cannot.
    The iphone does not store to SIM at all.
    The iphone is designed to be synced to your computer.  You should have been syncing your contacts to your computer from the very beginning.
    Your contacts should be in whatever program, on your computer, you have chosen to sync.

  • HT4191 how can i sync my notes from my iphone to my imac using the usb cord?

    Help,
         I thought macs were suppose to be easy to use. I just bought this imac and I want to get my notes from my iphone to the computer but I can't figure it out. I don't want to use the icloud. I simply want my notes to transfer from my iphone to the computer.

    When connected to iTunes on the computer, select the iPhone in the device pane. Go to the Info page for the phone in iTunes and scroll down to the Other section. There you will see the option to check to sync notes, and a selection for what program to sync them with. You will only see a selection if you have something to sync them with on your computer.

  • Hi,i hav a new laptop nd my songs on iphone is not stored in this computer,how can i store this songs from my iphone to my computer using itunes?? i hav tried other third party softwares but to use them i need to pay....pls help if possible.

    I am using itunes 10.4.1.10 version nd my iphone 4 is on 4.3.5....if anyone can help me would be very greatfull.
    Thank you.

    If you are not interested in purchasing any software, then your only other choice would be to take your iTunes backup that you made of your iTunes library and copy that over to the new computer. If you do not have that, then it could be difficult. However, if all of the content was purchased through iTunes, then after authorizing the computer with the Apple ID the songs were purchased on, you can transfer the purchases to the new computer.
