How to keep Sync contacts on Mavericks 10.9, iClould, gmail, iPhone IOS 7?

Have you ever happened?
Basically I don't want to lose time coping and pasting, doing much work to do something simple. I want to have sync my contacts from gmail account with iCloud account.
I used to have Lion Mac OS 10.7.4 which was allowing me sync my contacts from gmail into my macbook contacts. What was really beautiful because if I’d add a new contact automatically was updated into my gmail account and by default was updated into my iCloud account (1) which it’s really important in an Apple device or (2) just to have a back up in your iCloud account.
1. If I use iCloud to save every contact, such as phone numbers, email address, etc.. (with the information that I have read) It'd be default to write emails in gmail if I am in my macbook or a pc from school, I mean it's gonna be a lot of work. , because the contacts will be in iCloud .
2. But also if I restore, lost, sell my iPhone and I buy a new one it'll be easier if I just type my Apple ID and there's gonna be my all contacts.
However now I have got Mavericks 10.9.1 which is currently not allowing sync contact in this way, this is a big problem for me I use a lot google mail and Apple things as well. I have been making a small research about but nothing. Can you give me your opinion or solve my problem?

You can sync your Google contacts with the app,Contacts but you cannot sync between iCloud contacts and Google contacts. Just like your email does not sync between account, but to the application. It's always been that way.
If you want to email someone from your Gmail account but their address is only in iCloud, this is not a problem as Mail uses all addresses in Contacts.

    Contacts sync via iCloud.
    Set up iCloud on your iPad and your MBP, with the same iCloud account on both, with the same Apple ID.
    On the Mac you set this up with System Preferences > iCloud, and have Contacts checked in the box on the right.
    It looks very much the same on the iPad, Settings > iCloud.
    If you have set this up and it's still not working, then sign out of and then back into your iCloud accounts.

  • How does one sync contacts

    How does one sync contacts and calender from Outlook to [hone 4s using ver 12

    Despite Apple's poor track record in web services, they are definitely pushing everyone to iCloud. It started back in ML with Notes and continues to Mavericks with Contacts and Calendars. I made the fortuitous decision to migrate my Contacts and Calendars to iCloud about a week before installing Mavericks - I'd have been very annoyed to discover this new iCloud requirement after the fact.
    I find this solution sub-optimal, but Macworld suggests installing Mavericks Server and activating the Contacts and Calendar syncing services as a work around to keep your data out of iCloud.

  • How Can I sync contacts FROM my iPhone TO my AOL E-mail?

    How can I sync contacts FROM my iPhone TO my AOL E-mail? In other words, I want to keep all of my iPhone contact information intact and make AOL "mirror" it (and not wipe it out when I sync thru iTunes).

    The iPhone supports syncing contacts with Outlook 2003 or 2007, or with Windows Contacts with Windows, and with the Address Book or with the Entourage address book on a Mac.
    If you aren't currently using one of the supported applications on your computer for contact info - the supported address book application on your computer is empty, before syncing contacts enter one contact in the supported application on your computer. Make this contact up if needed, which can be deleted later. This will provide a merge prompt with the first sync for this data with the supported application on your computer, which you want to select.
    After this, you can export the contacts from the supported application on your computer that is supported for import by your AOL online address book - if AOL includes such an option.

  • HT204150 how can i sync contacts from icloud to my iphone from pc

    how can i sync contacts from icloud to my iphone from pc

    I just went to icloud-contacts- OFF.  It asks if I want to keep my contacts on the phone and I said yes.
    Thanks so much.  Saved me a ton of time.
    One thing I noticed though is for my name, it used to have an image of a person.  That is gone now on my phone but on my computer.  Is that only in iCloud?

  • ITunes keep syncing contacts

    I connect my iPhone to my Mac and iTunes start syncing. But it keeps syncing contacts and has been doing that for more than two hours now... I have not that many contacts and certainly I have not changed them all...
    What could be wrong here?
    Niklas

    Disable auto-syncing. Here’s how:
    1. Before you plug the iPhone or iPod into the computer, go to iTunes.
    2. On a Mac, go to the iTunes menu -> Preferences -> Devices.
    On a PC, go to Edit -> Settings -> Devices
    3. In the pop up window, look for the icon or tab that says Devices. Choose it.
    4. Just below the box, you’ll see a checkbox reading "Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically."
    5. Check it and click OK at the bottom of the window.
    Now when you plug the phone in it won't automatically star syncing.

    How do you Sync Contacts from iPhone to MacBook?
    Hi,  Does anyone know how to do this without the need for me to upgrade to Lion on my MAcBook Pro and use the iCloud?
    I put all my contacts into my iPhone and I'd like them now on my MAcBook Pro.
    Thanks,

    Click on your iDevice on the sidebar of iTunes and then go to the info tab at the top. check the box shown here:
    This will put the contacts from an iDevice to the computer. You can then check the same box on the (let's say iPad) that doens't have any contacts and they will go from your comp to your iPad.

    What instructions?
    In the source list click devices (so far so good) then click the entry for your iphone or ipod.  that doesn't exist. HELP asap
    You don't import photos from the iPhone to your computer using iTunes.
    See this -> iOS: Importing personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer
    Note this only applies to photos taken with the iPhone. Any photos you previously added to your iPhone using iTunes should be copied from old computer to new computer.

  • How do you sync contacts between an iPhone 5 and a MacBook Pro without iCloud?

    How do you sync contacts between an iPhone 5 and a MacBook Pro, using OS X 10.9.2 and iTunes 11.1.5 without using iCloud?

    I do NOT trust iCloud because it duplicated by contact book 4 to 5 times and blew up my records.
    Lately I realized that my Contact Book contacts are not updated and having lesser records, and did a check. There are a lot of missing contacts, despite Synching.
    I sync iPhone 5s (and iPhone 5) to Mac Contacts and I do NOT use CLOUD. Now it seems that it forces me to use CLOUD.
    I don't want to use CLOUD because of the BAD experience.
    I just realized that I cannot sync my iPhone 5s (&5) Contacts with Mac Contacts anymore, there is no even a button for Contacts on iTunes.
    This is RIDICULOUS... Screw around someone, this company is doomed.

  • How do I sync contacts and calendar from iphone to PC?

    How do I sync contact and calendar info from my iPhone into Outlook on my PC?  The iPhone User Guide suggests that you can only sync from the PC to the phone. Is there a way to reverse the direction?

    The sync process for contacts and calendar events with a supported app on your computer is a bi-directional or true sync process.
    There is a way to replace on the iPhone with what is available in the supported application on your computer but not the other way around.
    If the supported application on your computer includes contacts and calendar events and the same with your iPhone, with the first sync for this data you will be provided a merge prompt, which you want to select.
    This is selected under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes.

  • How can I sync my notes from the account "on my iPhone"

    how can I sync my notes from the account "on my iPhone" using Mobile me

    The most straightforward way (assuming your iPhone 3GS is running iOS 6, which it should be) is to use iCloud to house your contacts.
    Then it would be trivial to have your contacts synced and maintained between your MacBook Pro and your iPhone.
    P.S.:  Sorry, I said contacts but meant notes.  iCloud would work for both.
