How to sync edited contacts in MfE BOTH WAYS betwe...

Hi,
The contacts via MfE are only syncing in one direction when edited: phone-->google
If I change something in some of my google contacts and then sync to my phone it is not working. However if I add a new contact in gmail then it is created and synced properly to my phone
The only updates are from the phone to google, not the other way around. If I edit a contact in my phone then it syncs properly to gmail.
Nokia Team an support, any ideas??? Please... Am I doing something wrong?

When entering a new event in iCal be sure your "google" calendar is highlighted on the left had side of your screen. That makes Google your default calendar as you add events. Or you can choose which calendar from the drop-down box in the details box when adding a new entry. The down side is that is seems you can only select one Calendar; so the "Home", "Work", "Untitled" options become moot if you want to sync back to google.
If you already had events scheduled in iCal; you can right click on them, select "Calendar" and then choose your google calendar. When you refresh your google calendar that event should show up.
You simply need to be sure what Calendar you're entering into. Also if you wait a few SECONDS the calendars DO sync without any need to manually synchronize them.
So basically, ensure you're entering into the Google Calendar in iCal and wait a minute.

  • I-Phone; How to sync my contacts from Outlook with my I-Phone???

    Dear all,
    I need your help! I do not know how to sync my contacts!
    For any support, please contact me: [email protected]
    Thank you so much!
    Best regards
    Dennis

    Dennis...The biggest thing you will need is Outlook 2003 or 2007. If you have this, you will have to build an account. Contacts and Calender does not sync with iTunes but with outlook. iTunes is just the conduit. Once you have an account built into Outlook, you will need to plug your iPhone into iTunes and look at the second Tab to insure that you have selected what you want to sync. Hope this helps.
    Good Luck

  • Issue with sync'ing Google contact: how to sync only contacts in My Contact

    I tried to sync my Google contacts on my PC to iPhone using iTune: Info->Contacts, select Sync contacts with "Google Contacts" from the drop down list.
    However, I am only allowed to select "All contacts" as the choice. The "Selected groups" radio button is grayed out and cannot be selected. As such, all the contact info in my Google contact are synced to my iPhone, which include all the "garbage" contact info Gmail has cached, e.g. all the e-mail addresses from whom you have received e-mails from, including junk e-mails. I only want to sync contacts listed in "My Contacts". But looks like this feature (sync only Selected Groups) is not enabled or yet to be implemented? Can somebody confirm this, i.e. feature not enable vs. some config issue on my part?
    Does anybody know if there is a way around it?

    OK. I have just figured out how you can sync the contacts only in My Contact subgroup using Google sync over the air.
    The procedure is described in detail at Google Help:
    Google Sync: Set Up Your iPhone or iPod Touch for Google Sync
    http://www.google.com/support/mobile/bin/answer.py?answer=138740&topic=14252
    I followed the steps there and it synced all my contact in My Contacts subgroup within a minutes.
    However, I then edit a few contacts in my Google contacts just to see whether it will be synced automatically to my iPhone. So far after about 5 min, it hasn't happened.
    So I am wondering how often it gets updated (or pushed) and if there are other settings I can twig this (I do have the setting Fetch New Data set to Push)?

  • How to sync MobileMe contacts from the iPhone?

    Hello,
    Initially, I had the same contacts database on MobileMe and on my iPhone.
    Both contacts lists originated from my Mac Address Book.
    Syncing was not switched on - I simply forgot about it.
    Since then, many additional contacts have been added to the data on my iPhone - that's where I casually enter new contacts during the day, not my computer.
    Now I realize, I would need to sync my enlarged contacts data from my iPhone to MobileMe.
    Or, back to my Mac Address Book.
    When I want to switch on syncing, my iPhone says "Syncing with MobileMe will remove your existing contacts from your iPhone".
    This is not good!
    I want it just the other way around: MobileMe should be overwritten with the iPhone data!
    Is this syncing a one-way street? It can not be...
    Could anybody please help, how I can solve this?
    Thankyou.

    When first turning on over the air syncing for contact information on your iPhone, it is in one direction only - from what is available at MobileMe to your iPhone. Afterwards, the sync process is bidirectional.
    Sync your iPhone with the Address Book on your Mac via the iTunes sync process. Then sync the Address Book on your Mac with MobileMe. Make sure the Address Book on your Mac has been synced with MobileMe before turning on over the air syncing for contact information with MobileMe on your iPhone. Leave it on and any contact information entered on your iPhone will be synced with MobileMe and vice-versa from then on.

  • How to sync Google Contacts groups to iPhone?

    I can sync my contacts both ways between Google Contacts and my iPhone's phone book.
    Contacts in Google contact are grouped. When contacts are synced to the phone, grouping information is lost.
    How do I preserve grouping information?
    Related question: I only want to have a few selected groups in Google to sync with my phone. How do I do that?
    why when I sync google contact at itune, the" selected groups" is gray?

    Hi - from the"iPhone 6 User Guide for iOS 8.1",I followed the following steps:
    Use your Google contacts: Go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars, tap your Google account,
    then turn on Contacts.
    So I entered Gmail and password. Then withing Contacts app I pressed the Sync link.  Afterwards I've got all contacts in one big list, just not categorized by Google groups.

  • How to sync iPhone contacts back to Address Book.

    I came across this problem and found a work-around on the forums, but some guys there–including myself–felt that iTunes should sync our contacts bi-directionally from iPhone to Address Book on our Macs, and vice versa.
    As it turns out, that's really the default behavior in iTunes when syncing between iPhone/Address Book on the Mac. However, if you've been using iCloud to sync everything lateley, this will not be the default behavior, because your iTunes won't sync anything back to your Address Book on the Mac unless you completly disconnect from iCloud services.
    So..... if you want to sync your contacts from your iPhone back to your Address Book on your Mac, I'm providing this simple, yet tedious, solution:
    Step 1: Open Address Book on your Mac, select all of your contacts, and press delete. You'll be asked if you really want to delete the contacts. Hit ok and     continue.
    Step 2: Navigate to: Macintosh HD/Users/(YourUserName)/Library/Application Support/Address Book.
    Note* On OS X Lion, your Library folder will not be shown. You'll have to navigate there a different way. The way I did it was:
    Click the "Go" option up in the Finder menu bar.
    Toward the bottom of the pull-down menu, click on the "Go to Folder..." option.
    Type "~(YourUserName)/Library/Application Support/Address Book.
    Once there, I searched through all the folders included and deleted anything that ended in ".plist" or ".log". This way, Address Book is completely reset when next open it.
    Step 3: Open Address Book, add at least one contact if none are automatically created for you, and make sure iCloud is Disabled (if an account is there) in your Address Book Preferences pane, which you find by clicking "Address Book" in the top menu bar. Then, quit Address Book.
    Step 4: On your iPhone, open your Settings app, go to the iCloud option, and turn all services off. After turning each one off, it will ask you if you want to keep the data on you phone. Always select "Yes", otherwise you may lose your data.
    Step 5: Connect your iPhone to your computer, open iTunes, select your iPhone in the left column, select the "Info" tab, and check the box to "Sync Contacts"–further down on the page, in the Advanced section, make sure the Contacts checkbox is unchecked. If it's checked when you sync, iTunes will overwrite the contacts on your phone with the contacts from Address Book on your Mac.
    Step 6: Sync your iPhone–This will sync the contacts from your phone to the Address Book app on your Mac.
    Step 7: Open up Address Book, and add an iCloud account, or re-enable the one you disabled in step 3–This will sync all of those contacts to your iCloud account again. Then, you can also go back to the iCloud settings on your phone and turn all the services back on.
    After all this, you should have been able to first sync your contacts from you iPhone back to your Address Book app on your Mac, then have them both synced up through iCloud with the same contacts being pushed everywhere.
    Hope this helps!

    Hi, thanks for all this, unfortunately it's still not helping me. Last week I turned on iCloud for contacts and not only did the iCloud sync fail, but now with iCloud off I haven't been able to sync iphone-to-mac thru iTunes.
    I've checked that iCloud contact sync'ing is off, on both my Mac and iPhone. I've even turned off all other iCloud services on both devices. I followed your instructions precisely and even deleted more than you suggested from the App Support | Address Book folder. Step 6 just doesn't work. iTunes whips thru the Address Book sync progress when it should pause a bit to do the transfer—my Address Book archive is 44 Mb.
    I have no desire to waste more time with iCloud, just want it to work the old fashioned way.  I'd gladly do a clean system re-install but not sure even that would do it…hard to tell where the problem lies.
    Appreciate any light you could shed!

  • I use a Win7 PC with iCloud and Outlook 2010 for syncing my calendar and contacts. I can enter data in my Outlook Calendar and it will appear in iCloud, but data entered in iCloud does not sync back to Outlook.  ICloud syncs to my iphone fine both ways.

    I use Win 7 PC with iCloud and Outlook 2010 for syncing my Contacts and Calendar.  They have stopped syncing...mostly.
    Now, appointments I enter on my local Outlook (iCloud) Calendar goes up to iCloud fine.  But, data I enter on iCloud directly does not come down to my local Outlook iCloud Calendar.  If I reboot the computer, the iCloud data shows up.
    Also, Contacts I try to enter on my Outlook (iCloud) Contacts goes up to iCloud fine, but does not show up in my local iCloud Contacts.
    All syncing works with my iPhone.
    I have signed out of iCloud on PC.  I have stopped syncing and re-started.  No change.
    I have an .aplzod folder for iCloud.  I have a separate Earthlink.net.pst email account in Outlook and a me.com.pst Outlook email account (which I don't actually use) listed under Data Files.
    Any help would be appreciated.  Curious that Outlook will upload to iCloud but not receive downloads unless I reboot.  However, rebooting does not download the missing Contacts.

    Hi Jim!
    You've started off with some good troubleshooting steps, so let's see if we can take this a little further and figure out what the issue is with your iCloud contacts and calendars. I have two articles here that will help you troubleshoot this issue a little further, but the troubleshooting steps for both articles are exactly the same, so I will lay those out for you here:
    Note: When using iCloud Control Panel 2.0 and later, iCloud Calendar event descriptions in Outlook 2010 do not support text formatting (bold, italics, or underline), HTML, images, or attachments. The contextual (right-click) menu has also been disabled.
    If you are having trouble with a PC (with Outlook 2007 or 2010) and iCloud Calendar, try each of these steps, testing after each to see if the issue is resolved:
    Verify that you are using a Windows configuration that is supported by iCloud. For more information, see iCloud system requirements.
    When enabling Calendars in the iCloud Control Panel, part of the setup process is to copy your Calendars data from the default Outlook ".pst" file to iCloud, and then remove the Calendars from the ".pst" file by placing them in the Deleted Items folder in Outlook. The Calendars data is then stored in the iCloud data set within Outlook so that changes can be pushed to and from Outlook by iCloud. Be sure you are looking for your data within the iCloud dataset within Outlook after enabling Calendars in the iCloud Control Panel. The deleted files can be seen by viewing Deleted Items within your Outlook Folder List. This is not iCloud removing your data; iCloud simply copies your data into the iCloud data set and then removes the local Calendars data by placing it in the Deleted Items folder.
    Make sure your computer is online. Attempt to view www.apple.com and iCloud.com. If you can't connect to the Internet, your iCloud calendars and events will not update in Outlook. Click here for more information about troubleshooting your Internet connection.
    Open a secure website to test if you are online as is necessary for iCloud Calendar. This also tests if the ports 80 and 443 are accessible. Outlook requires port 443 access to iCloud in order to push and pull updates to and from the iCloud Calendar servers.
    Verify that your iCloud member name is entered into the iCloud Control Panel pane. See iCloud Setup for more information about setting up iCloud on Windows.
    Completely close and reopen the iCloud Control Panel.
    If you recently made changes in Outlook and they are not moving to your other devices or vice-versa, click the Refresh button in Outlook.
    Turn iCloud Calendar off and back on:
    Close Outlook.
    Open the Windows Control Panel:
    In Windows 8, move the pointer to the upper-right corner of the screen to show the Charms bar, click the Search charm, and then click the iCloud Control Panel on the left.
    In Windows 7 and Vista, choose Start menu > All Programs > iCloud > iCloud.
    Remove the checkmark in the checkbox next to Mail, Contacts, Calendars & Tasks, and click Apply. Wait a few seconds, then replace the checkmark, and click Apply.
    Open Outlook and test to see if the issue has been resolved.
    Ensure the iCloud Outlook Add-in is active within Outlook.
    Outlook 2010:
    Open Outlook 2010.
    Click the File menu.
    Click Options in the left panel of the Outlook window.
    Click Add-Ins in the left panel of the Outlook Options window.
    Look at the list of add-ins beneath "Active Application Add-Ins" and verify that the "iCloud Outlook Add-in" is listed.
    For Outlook 2007, follow these steps to verify the iCloud Outlook Add-in is active
    Open Outlook 2007.
    From the Tools menu, choose Trust Center.
    Select Add-ins from the left column.
    Look at the list of add-ins beneath "Active Application Add-Ins" and verify that the "iCloud Outlook Add-in" is listed.
    For additional information about managing Add-ins with Microsoft Outlook, see this Microsoft support document.
    Restart your computer. This may sound simple, but it does reinitialize your network and application settings and can frequently resolve issues.

  • How to sync the contacts in icloud

    if i add a contact in icloud in my pc i am able to find it in my iphone. but if i add a contact in my iphone i could'nt see that in icloud. and i have imported 250 contacts through my sim card and i have saved some 100 contacts manually in my phone. but i am able to see the contacts that i have imported from sim alone, i am unable to see the contacts that i have uploaded manually.

    Download the free app My Contacts Backup.  Go to Settings>iCloud, turn Contacts to Off, when prompted choose Delete from My iPhone.  Check the contacts on your phone.  If you have any left on your phone, launch My Contacts Backup, tap the gear shaped icon on the bottom right, scroll to the bottom and tap Remove All Contacts.  When finished, go back to Settings>iCloud and turn Contacts back to On to sync the unduplicated contacts back to your phone from iCloud.
    Also, be sure you aren't trying to sync your contacts with both iCloud and iTunes or you will get duplicates.

  • How to easily edit contacts for N95 8G?

    Hi all!
    I would like to edit my contacts in the computer to pass them latter to N95 8G. For me, it's slow to edit them in the cell phone. Could I edit them in the computer? How could I do that?
    Thank you all in advance.

    You could use Nokia PC Suite ( http://www.nokia.com/pcsuite ) with its Contacts editor.
    You could use PC Suite and synchronize with Outlook.
    You could even edit contacts as .vcf files and import them on the phone (put the files in \Other\Contacts in the mass memory, and use the Contacts app to copy the contacts from the files).
