How to save contact in icloud

when i save a new contact number in my iphone, it doesnt appear in my icloud, but it appear in my hotmail contact. what shoud i do???

Because you are using the hotmail for contacts and email. You need to use the icloud as your default email and contacts.

    how to import Contacts in iCloud from Exchange?

    This usually works:
    Go to Settings>iCloud, turn Contacts to Off, choose Delete from My iPhone when prompted (they will still be in iCloud).
    Download the app My Contacts Backup.  Use this to backup the remaining contacts on your phone (from your exchange account) as a vCard attachment to an email that you send to yourself.  Confirm that you have received the email.
    Go to Settings>iCloud and turn Contacts back to On.
    Go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Account (in the Contacts section), set this to iCloud.  (This will cause new contacts added to your phone to be added to the iCloud account.)
    Go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars and turn off contacts syncing with your exchange account (otherwise you will end up with duplicates on your phone).
    Open the My Contacts Backup email and tap the attachment to import the contacts from your exchange account back to your phone and to iCloud.

  • How to retrive contacts from icloud

    How to retrieve contacts from icloud.

    The iCloud backup doesn't include your contacts.  iCloud syncs your contacts to your iCloud account.  After restoring to your backup the conacts you are seeing are the ones still in your iCloud account (and visible on icloud.com).  If the contacts you lost are no longer in your account on icloud.com, they are unfortunately not recoverable (unless they are backed up somewhere else such as Outlook).

  • How to Sync contacts to iCloud from ios4

    How do I sync contacts to iCloud from my iOS 4 iPad?

    I don't believe that is possible.
    iCloud was released after iOS 4.  And your iPhone 3G cannot run any iOS past iOS 4.2.1.  So you're out of luck until you purchase a newer iPhone.

  • Re Iphoto stream - how to save space on icloud by deleting on iphone but not on mac iphoto?? thanks

    Hi - be great if anyone can help....
    It's unclear to me as to how to save photostream photos from iphone to macbook if I want to delete the same photos from my phone to save space on icloud.
    Thanks in anticipation of any advice

    Hi
    It's a very good idea to use an external hard disk to take load off the Main Start-Up (Mac OS) hard disk.
    BUT there are some VERY Important things to know.
    A. NEVER move via DeskTop/Finder or alter any folders named
    • iMovie Events - or -
    • iMovie Projects
    As this will result in disaster (hard to impossibly to mend)
    All moving's of Events and Projects must be done Within the iMovie Application to be done in a Safe Way
    B. The External/Second Hard Disk
    • MUST BE - Mac OS Extended (hfs) formatted for VIDEO - UNIX/DOS/FAT32/Mac OS Exchange works for most things BUT NOT FOR VIDEO - whatever program is used iMovie or FinalCut or iDVD doesn't matter - VERY IMPORTANT ! ! !
    • Should be a FireWire one as USB/USB2 performs badly to me especially when filling up. (Thunderbolt might be even better - have non to test)
    BUT when reg. iPhoto Library.
    • Yes it can be moved
    • Yes iPhoto can be directed to find it
    • BUT - iMovie can not find those out-localized iPhoto libraries (AS FAR AS I Learned up to now 12-April-03 - anyone with more insight may kindly set me into a possibly way to do this)
    So I've outsource my iMovie Event's (most important as they take space) and Projects (not so important as they are very small - no movies in them only text document conducting how the Events are to be viewed) - BUT iPhoto stays - will not touch it.
    Yours Bengt W

  • How to print contacts from iCloud (list vs separate sheets of paper)

    How do you print a list of contacts from icloud without having each contact on one sheet of paper.  Perhaps print with several vcard images on one sheet?

    That's ok...I figured it out.  I selected all contact by selecting all contacts then to the settings image and select print.

    If your contacts are no longer on icloud.com and you don't have another backup of them, you can try restoring them from your iPad backup by following this user tip from Winston Churchill: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4841.

  • How to save contacts from ipad to friend's computer without meshing contacts together

    i am updating a friend's ipad so she can get the new 5 software. she has never synced her ipad to a computer before. i want to save her contacts on my computer, but i dont want them to mesh with mine. how do i need to save hers to my computer before updating? i already uploaded her apps to my computer to make sure they would be saved and they meshed in with mine. i also want to make sure if i hit "sync contacts" it doesnt delete hers and put mine on her ipad. thanks for any input!

    I would research into different contact groups, put hers in one group, yours in another. I have 3 options on my iPad, to see all groups, all from my PC, all from iCloud...so they are meshed, but I can only see the group that I want.

  • HT4910 I still don't know how to get contacts from iCloud to my macbook !

    For some reason when I sync my iphone to my macbook it is NOT syncing my contacts properly.  My contacts are on iCloud, but how do I get them from iCLoud to my Macbook so that iCloud, iPhone and macbook all have the same contacts.
    Also for some reason there is one group on iCloud with my husband's contacts on it, how do it get that out of my iCloud and into his iCloud?

    Make sure the contacts you are adding are added to your 'iCloud' group and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud group (you can do this by checking in groups), non iCloud contacts will not sync.
    This user tip might help you understand how accounts work with Address Book. Contacts on the phone is similar.
    Do you and your husband share an iCloud account or are you logged into his iCloud account as a secondary account at mail, contacts & calendars.

  • How to share contacts in iCloud?

    For years I'm trying to digitalize the contact and calendar information in my household on the Apple eco-system, which started in the early years of MobileMe... in the mean time the rather expensive (family pack) MobileMe service has been replaced by the more integrated iCloud services, but I'm getting stuck now in the contacts portion of the story where the upgrade from iCal to Calendar in Mountain Lion did cover most of my needs: my family (like most families in the world I guess) want to have a central contact list that can be maintained by 'mum and dad' and viewed by the children, including having the birthdays visible in the Calendar...
    In the support community I see posts on people being motivated to get individual iCloud ID's to be able to have personal entries, and some tricks to keep the current shared contacts after migration and afterwards deleting the ones you don't want anymore... but not mentioning that from that time on all common contacts need to be maintained by each of the family members (again)...
    The approach in calendars allows to create various calendar (or groups), and allowing to subscribe to these either publicly or with a list of iCloud ID's with either view or edit capability... the birthday events are created out of the contacts automatically. Couldn't this subscription functionality be arranged for Contacts?
    PS: As it stands now, I had to give up my personal me.com account and use it as the family account where all the common (but also my personal) contacts are maintained, and our iPad is the 'single source of truth'... the iMac is becoming less useful as the contacts are not available to the other family members, as they are still linked to their old me.com ID's...

    Your Mac would need to be signed into the same account to actually share contacts.  However, it's possible to copy the contacts from one account to the other.  You would do this by signing into the account that contains all the contacts in System Preferences>iCloud (if you need to, sign out, choose Delete at all the prompts -- your data will still be in iCloud -- then sign into the account containing the contacts), and check contacts so they appear on your Mac.  Once on your Mac, open Contacts, go to View>Groups, select All Contacts group in the iCloud section on the left sidebar, go to Edit>Select All to select all contacts (they should be all be highlighted in blue), then go to File>Export>Export vCard and save this file on your desktop.
    Next, go to System Preferences>iCloud, sign out, choose Delete at all prompts, sign into the account that has the partial contact list and check Contacts.  Then double-click the file you saved earlier to import the full set of contacts to your Mac, and it to this iCloud account.  Then open Contacts and go to Card>Look for Duplicates and merge the duplicates found.  You should now have the full set of contacts in both accounts.  You can then sign into the account you want to use on this Mac and recheck the data you want to share with iCloud and the data will reappear on your Mac after a short delay as it redownloads.

  • How to see contacts in icloud email on iPad

    Is there a way to pull up my contacts in my icloud email acct on my IPad?

    #1 - I confirmed that my contacts are in my "icloud" email account when I went to the webpage throught firefox.
    #2 - the toggle switch in (settings>iCloud) has been "on" the entire time.
    However when I open the iCloudj on my IPad I cannot see or access my contacts."On the left side of the Ipad is a list of the folders I have created in my iCloud account.
         - when I make that column disappear & only have a message on my Ipad screen there are no icons that will allow me access to my contacts. At the top of the window are icons for: <inbox; up and down triangles; a flag, a folder, a trash can, a left pointing arrow and a pen/paper.
    If I make the "Mailboxes" column come up (on the left of screen) then there is a listing of:
    -all inboxes
    -gmail
    -icloud
    -embarqmail
    -*VIP
    ACCOUNTS
    -Gmail
    -iCloud
    -Embarqmail
    Regardless of how I access iCloud email from the list above...I can never see/access my contacts. Is this correct?
