How to sync existing contacts/calendar using Gmail sync?

Hi,
The instructions are very straightforward for how to set up your iPhone, using the Exchange setup, with Gmail sync.
Now that I am set up, all of my existing contacts and calendar events on the phone have not synced over to Gmail, and I can't figure out how to make it happen.
Ideally, I'd like to sync my existing (now inactive) 3GS with Gmail, and then, sync my new iPhone 4 up to Gmail, thereby pulling the contacts and calendar events onto the phone as well.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks.

I have been there, but thanks just the same for the reply.
I don't understand, but I don't know what else to do. When I made the connection, the mail synced from Gmail just fine. But the contacts and calendar have not left the phone, when I log into my Gmail account via the web, no contacts have copied there from the phone.
Thanks anyways.

  • How do I get a "second alert" option in calendar  - using gmail w/ exchange

    Hi -
    I am using gmail calendar and syncing it via "push" of microsoft exchange.
    I am able to set a single "alert" for a calendar, but not a second alert (as the native iphone calendar will allow, as does gmail calendar").
    How do I set a second alert for a calendar event (inside the iphone)?
    Bonus question: there seems to be some nuances to how alerts are transferred between gmail calendar and the iphone - for instance where the event was originally entered, etc. Anyone have documentation on how that works???
    Thanks!!!

    I am not aware of a setting in the phone for a second calendar alert, except if you try and snooze the original alert. However, I'm sure you are asking for it to alert until you acknowledge it, correct?

  • How can i move contacts from my gmail account

    Is there a way to move contacts from my gmail account to my IPhone 4?

    I assume you're using GMail as your primary e-mail account?  Try this.  This is how I am setup.  Not only will it move all your contacts to your phone but any changes made in GMail or on the iPhone will be sync'd with the server.
    http://www.google.com/support/mobile/bin/answer.py?answer=138740
    Note... I think this will delete your existing contacts from your device.  You will want to use iTunes to back them up and get them imported into GMail before you sync your device wtih GMail.

  • How to move existing contacts to the iCloud group?

    I have some contacts in my iphone that were added to my gmail group by default, not iCloud. I was wondering how to move the contacts to the iCloud group so I would be able to see them on iCloud.com on my pc.

    iCloud only syncs contacts belonging to the iCloud account.  If you have contacts belonging to other accounts (such as Gmail, Yahoo, and exchange account, etc.), you'll have to copy these to iCloud and disable contact syncing with these other accounts.  If you want to do this, do the following:
    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 the other accounts/groups) 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.
    Go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars...tap each of the other accounts you are syncing contacts with and turn off contacts syncing with these other accounts (otherwise you will have duplicates on your phone).
    Open the My Contacts Backup email and tap the attachment to import the contacts from the other groups back to your phone, and to iCloud and your other devices.

  • Can't synch music & contacts/calendar using home and work machines

    Hi all. I just purchased an Iphone. I keep me calendar and contacts on my work computer (Microsoft Outlook) and my music on my home computer (Itunes). I synched the phone with Itunes (no music) on the work computer today and now have all of my contacts and calendar on the phone. I tried to synch with my music on my home computer tonight and I got a prompt that says the phone is synched with another Itunes library and that if I want to synch with the home library (for my music) the contents of the phone will be erased and then synced.
    So, my question is: will the erasing erase my contents and calendar from my synch this morning with my work computer? If so, how can I get both my contacts/calendar and my music from the 2 different computers onto my phone?
    Sorry about the long post, and thanks in advance!
    Regards,
    Frank A.

    You can sync music/video from ONE computer/library at a time. The same is not true of contacts and calendars.
    Your music will be erased if you sync music to another computer, and replaced with music from the new computer.
    If you are trying to sync contacts/calendar to both computers, then make sure that each computer has at least one contact and calendar entry. This will prompt a merge.
    If you want to sync contacts/calendars from one and music from another computer, then disable automatic sync and select contacts and calendars to sync with one computer ( de-select music and video sync) and do the opposite on the other computer.

  • How to move existing Contact entity attachments to MS SharePoint library

    Hi All,
    We are migrating a MS CRM 4.0 system to MS CRM 2013. One of the change to be implemented is - Move existing Contact entity (and also other entities) attachments to SharePoint 2010 library.
    Is there any support / feature in MS CRM 2013 to move these attachments to SharePoint 2013 Libraries.
    Please Help
    Thanks in Advance

    There is no out of the box feature in CRM that will do this. You will either need to write your own software to do this or look for a third-party tool to do this (at least one exists).

  • How can you share Contacts and use Family Sharing?

    Still sharing 1apple ID & 1 iCloud from way back when.  Kids were little, syncing was simple... turned off their device iClouds and synced apps, playlist, shows w/ iMac via usb.  I loved having my contacts, bookmarks, notes synced via iCloud and it became VERY handy when kid1 got an iPhone (appointments, practices, friends #s w/ ease!)   We've recently added a macbook and another iPhone to the mix, we've got music issues & iPads ringing.... so a potential overall may be due?
    Now that Family Sharing is here, it's still missing features that we USE:
    * Notes (grocery list, packing lists...)
    * Contacts (each family member has a 'group' name, they add to their group and the family's master list is 'all contacts' for anyone to access incase of emergencies.... anyone keeping up w/ kids lately?!)
    * And the ever present iCloud icon is a looming feature for anyone, any age in the shared-family to be too curious...
    * CAN any of these features be added along w/ Family Sharing?
    HOW do I set up a simple family sharing system w/o interfering w/ bookmarks, personal notes, FaceTime/msg crossovers :
    share our purchases (apps, music from our iTunes/playlists, podcast),
    share our calendar
    share our contacts
    share a family notes
    msgs/facetime for each member
    mom: iphone, ipad, imac
    dad:  iphone
    kid1: iphone, macbook
    kid2: ipad
    kid3: ipad
    Thanks to anyone that has this set up and will share the method to my madness.  Didn't know where to post this, sorry about that.

    After having burned the AudioCD from iTunes Menu Advanced choose "Submit Track Names ..."
    That will put the data of your CD into CDDB.
    It may take between some hour and a few days until it is recognized on a second computer through CDDB.
