How do I sync my contacts from outlook express to my i pod touch?

I am very new to the iPod touch and it is aslow learning curve for me.
I would like to be able to read and send emails from my ipod. I am with shaw.ca Outlook Express. I figured out how to load my email address in to seetings but I want my contacts there-how do I sync those in?

Iassume you are using Windows SP. if so you can Windows Mail (not Windows Live Mail). You can import your Outlook Express contacts into Windows Mail Contacts. Windows Mail Contacts will sync with your iPod.

How can I sync the contacts from outlook on my macbook pro with my iPhone

My iPhone 5 is backing up on iCloud and my music, etc is syncing through iTunes (11.4) on my MacBook Pro 2.5 GHz Intel Core i5 4GB 1600 MHz DDR3 but my calendar and contacts from Outlook 2011 are not syncing. Does anyone know which settings I may need to change? I have updated my operating system to OS X 10.9.4 and iTunes.

You'll need to find a way to export your Outlook contacts and calendar to Apple's Contacts and Calendar applications. There are some paid software apps that can do this but I don't know of any free way other than exporting each event/contact individually. Outlook 2011, when it first came out, synced well with iCal and Address Book (or whatever it was called) but that's no longer the case... maybe when Office for Mac 2014 comes out?
Sorry that I don't have an answer to what seems to be a common problem.

You can transfer your Outlook contacts to your iPhone using the information in the following article:

You could also have your contacts constantly syncing with your iPhone via iCloud and the iCloud Control Panel, which can be found here:

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.

I am unable to synce my contacts from outlook in xp to my ipad 3 have followed all instructions without success

I am unable to sync my contacts from outlook in xp to my ipad 3 have followed all instructions without success. Can any one help

Sync the photos back to the iPad using iTunes. You have to place the photos into a folder from which you sync photos. All photos that you want to sync to the device must be included in the main photos folder and selected to sync each time that you sync.
Connect the iPad to the PC and launch iTunes.
Click on the iPad name on the left side under devices.
Click on the Photos Tab on the right.
Click on the Sync Photos From heading in order to select it.
Select the photos folder that you want to sync from.
Select all of the albums or photos within the folder that you want to sync.
Click on Apply in the lower right corner of iTunes

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:

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

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.

As far as I can tell this has been disabled in Mavericks (and possibly slightly earlier). Apple now wants you to get an iCloud account and upload all of your contacts to their server.
The way this works is: 1. create an icloud accout 2. set up your mac to sync its contacts with that icloud account 3. set up your iphone to sync its contacts with that same icloud account. (Be careful when synching the first time that you don't overwrite the device's contacts with the initially blank set of clontacts in icloud). The result is that you have synched the contacts between your iphone and your mac (and Apple gets a copy as well).

Now I understand. In step #2 above "set up your mac to sync its contacts with that icloud account" means "select all the 'on my mac' contacts and drag them onto the iCloud account so that they become iCloud contacts". There is no "setting" to sync "on my mac" contacts to iCloud.
As I tried to note on another thread about this where I was, unfortunately, openly mocked for having difficulty with it, this doesn't always go as smoothly as one would like and it can, at times, appear that you can't drag a contact from "on my mac" to iCloud.
I have several hundred google contacts and several hundred "on my mac" contacts, as well as the iCloud acount. (A consequence of being a very long time Apple user and a very reluctant iCloud adopter. Until a serious phone failure yesterday I'd always just had the contacts sync via iTunes and then grandfathered from phone to phone once that feature was removed by building the new phone from the old phone's back up.)
The Contacts app is in constant network communication with the google servers and the iCloud servers. When you're working with this many contacts at one time, network lag in those communications (is my best guess) can cause the application itself to cease to function in a quick and obvious way, often creating the appearance that you can't drag a particular contact (or group of contacts) from one place to another. You try to drag and nothing happens. You don't get an error or a warning, you don't get the situation where you can drag it but you can't get it to select a group (because the contact is already in there) you get nothing at all.
If this happens often enough it can lead one to believe that contacts must be moved individually and manually, but that is not the case. You just have to let your network connection catch up, and try again.
Also note that if you drag a group of contacts and some of them are already in iCloud you'll get a warning about potential duplicates. You'll get a set of choices about which one to keep, or both, or update. You can't actually see the contents of the two duplicates while you make this choice. If you get this warning, I would highly recommend choosing "cancel", confirming that your local copy is correct, complete and up to date, and then do the select and drag again and then pick the "update" option -- either nothing will happen because iCloud was also correct, complete and up to date, or you'll update iCloud, but nothing bad can happen that way.
I'm so glad they took away the direct syncing with the Contacts app via iTunes. This new method is so much easier to use

Getting my contacts from outlook express

Pardon my ignorance, but as I newbie to the iPhone I am stumbling my way along. I thought I had it figured out on how to tranfer my contacts from my outlook express on my PC, but appearently not. Upon further inspection I notice that iTunes is trying to sync contacts and calendars with "outlook" but sync mail accounts from "outlook express". It doesn't even recognise that outlook express exists for contacts or for calendars. How can I work around this, or convince iTunes to import everything from outlook express? thanks........Travis

Yeah, Sync contact with "outlook" is checked. All contacts is selected.
Sync calendar with "outlook" is checked. All calendars is selected.
Sync mail accounts from "outlook express" is selected and both email accounts are checked.
I have nothing checked in the bottom 2 fields the other that says "other" or "advanced"

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.
