why cannot iphone 4s 2way sync with outlook contacts? it says we have to use google calendar, i could not manage it but why we should pay so much money and have to sync pc and iphone contacts manualy..

The sync process for contacts with a supported address book app on your computer is a bi-directional or true sync process, or should be. There is no setting to enable or disable this.

IPhone no longer syncs with Outlook Contacts/Calendar

For months I was syncing with my computer at home for music and videos, then I bring my iPhone to work and sync my Outlook Contacts and Calendar.
Now, when I plug in my iPhone on my work computer, everything operates as it used to, it still says it's syncing contacts, then syncing the calendar, but after it's done, when I look at the calendar or contacts in my iPhone, nothing has changed. It's simply not syncing with Outlook anymore, even though the status bar at the top of iTunes says it is syncing.

It appears I have solved the issue myself and thought I would share the solution in case anyone runs into this problem.
In Outlook, I only have one profile. However, Outlook somehow had some settings changed where it prompted me for which profile I wanted to use each time I started Outlook (even though I only have one profile). Because it was prompting me to choose when I start Outlook, I am guessing that when iTunes tried to access Outlook, it was also prompting iTunes to choose which profile to use as well. Since iTunes didn't know which profile, it wasn't syncing properly (note, iTunes never asks you which profile you want to use).
To fix this, I went to the control panel, double clicked the mail icon, clicked the button that says "Show Profiles". I highlighted the only profile I have listed in the drop-down menu and checked the box that says "Always use this profile".
I then sync'd iTunes with my phone and the calendar and contacts finally updated!

An extra group 'on my iphone' appeared after i sync with windows contact via itunes

I am having this problem which appears to be happened after i sync with my computer. In the contact group, there is an extra group 'on my iphone' appeared after i sync with windows contact via itunes, and even though now i stop syncing already, the group is still there. Can anyone here give me some suggestion on how to remove this group permantly, i not just wanted to remove the contacts but the entire group form appearing on my iphone. Thanks.

Is the app compatible with the iPhone (e.g. it's not and iPad-only app), and do you have the relevant iOS version on the phone ? Or do you have Settings > General > Restrictions > Installing Apps set 'off' on the phone which will stop new apps being installed ?

BBZ10 2 way sync with outlook

Is there an estimated date for when BB will have an upgrade available for 2 way syncing with outlook (the traditional BB way)?

Hi dbs4u and welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums!
2-way synchronization is available with the latest version of BlackBerry Link (www.blackberry.com/desktop). I'm not quite sure what you are referring to by "Traditional BB Way".
Thanks.

Problems with Sync with Outlook contacts and calendar (Office 2007)

I have been able to set up my Blackberry curve with email accounts, but sync with Outlook contacts fails. My device will show as connected, but nothing happens. I continue to get a message if I want to use Mass Storage mode on my phone and I assume this should be checked as yes, then I get a folder showing up on my desktop with "Removable Disk (E, which contains several files.
When Desktop Manager is opened I get message "Initial Plugin: Verifying Applications" "checking the status of the applications on the device. This is only required on the first connection of the device to a new desktop installation" It shows in the same dialog box "connecting to the device (JVM)...
The connection hangs and nothing happens. I have reinstalled software and was even told by Verizon Support to exchange the phone (which I did), but the same issue of non-connection for sync is still there.
Any help/suggestions are greatly appreciated.

iTunes thread found that sync issue was caused by reoccuring appointments,
Basically you need to modify the reoccuring appointments (and may require to add an end date as this was how the guy made a modification) and then re-sync.

IPhone 4 (iOS5) not syncing with outlook 2010 calendar

Hi Guys,
My iPhone 4 has been working great for the last few months up until recently. I have been able to sync with outlook 2010 for both my contacts and calendar using iTunes sync in the past with no problems.. I went to conference last week and got back in the office sync’d yesterday. Things are not right. My contacts sync, but calendar does not sync either way (phone to PC - PC to phone). I upgraded to iOS5 and reloaded iTunes and I'm having the same problem. I also noticed that my sync is taking much, much longer (like there is a conflict somewhere.) The contacts still sync, but no new/changed calendar entries. Anyone have this problem and have any ideas how do I can fix it? Is it a simple setting switch on the iPhone or iTunes? It's getting very frustrating!! One of my office mates has been taunting me with his android phone and I’m starting to feel like I might have to do something drastic to get my calendar back on my phone…
Outlook version is MS Pro Plus 2010 - 14.0.5128.5000 (64-bit)
iTunes version is 10.5.0.142
iPhone version is 5.0 (9A334)
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hey, man. Sorry I have no solution, but it may not hurt to know you are not the only one.
I uprgraded a 3GS to iOS 5, set it up to sync with iCloud initially, and then switched back to sync with PC as before. It seems that my calendar was syncing at first, but within a few days it just stopped.
I also recall a ton of weird "sync conflicts" that I had to resolve, even though the iTunes conflict reslover showed information that was identical in Outlook and iPhone calendar.
Notes and contacts sync just fine with Outlook 2003 under Windows Vista for me, but calendar will not sync at all any more, either direction.
I have tried most of the suggestions, including restoring iPhone and creating a whole new user account in Windows and tried syncing iPhone and Outlook via iTunes that way (and both USB and wifi). I did not seem to have any better success.
This is a disaster. So far I have just been using Notes to MANUALLY sync calendar info between devices.
I have never given nearly as much thought to Android as I have lately.
It may be time to call Apple Support, but my previous experiences with them (and the "Geniuses" at the store) were underwhelming.

IPhone will no longer sync with Outlook 2007

I've had my iPhone for about 16 months - the sync with Outlook 2007 worked great until about 3 months ago (I'm guessing previous update to the one that happened today.) No changes to the laptop I synch with - Vista.
In iTunes under the "Info" tab for Calendars I see the message "No supported calendar application can be found."
Normal sync for music works and photo uploading works fine.
Help!
Thanks!

Hi P,
Make sure you have the latest version of iTunes and Outlook. You can download the latest version of iTunes here: http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
If the issue persists after updating, try the tips in this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1692

HT1386 Just downloaded the newest version of Itunes. Now my Iphone 4s won't sync with Outlook calendar. Has any one else seen this?

Just downloaded the newest version of Itunes. Now my Iphone 4s won't sync with Calendar in XP Outlook. Has anyone else had this problem, and how did you fix it? I've already made sure the proper check boxes are on in Itunes and tried the reset sync history. Also re-downloaded Itunes again. Same problem.

Well, OSX 10.9.2 is free, which should solve the iTunes problem, but 10.9.2 isn't bug free, & you'll lose the ability to run any PPC Apps if that important, as well as needing to update many Apps & Printer Drivers.

IPhone calendar has not synced with Outlook since December 2009; Please Fix

My iPhone calendar quit syncing with Outlook after an iTunes update in December 2009. When I sync to my computer, iTunes goes through the motions but no events show up in the iPhone calendar. I have talked to Apple tech support 3 times, purchased a new computer, and tried everything known to man to correct this. Calendar is the only thing that does not sync. The only thing left to do, I guess, is buy a new iphone. Who knows if this will correct the issue. Please, is there a fix out there? I'm tired of carrying a scratch piece of paper around with my appointments on it.

Well, I fixed it myself. In Outlook, I checked each appointment for a bad reminder time. My default time is 30 minutes. ONE entry showed 0 minutes. I changed it to 30, synced, and lo and behold, I have my calendar back! I can't believe that is all it took.

My iphone won't sync with Outlook contacts or calendar anymore. Any idea how to do this now?

I used to be able to sync my iphone contacts and calendar entries (home calendar) with outlook and now it won't work. How can I fix this?

Does iTunes Show an error message?
How did you setup syncing with Outlook, are you syncing them via iTunes using USB or Wi-Fi or an Exchange server?
For more info on USB syncing and all of the other options, take a look at this Apple doc -> iOS: How to transfer or sync content to your computer
If you aren't sure try setting up USB syncing again, just connect the iPhone to the computer, open iTunes, click the Info tab across the top of the screen, scroll down to Contacts and choose to sync contacts.
Contacts
To sync contacts with your computer, choose "Sync Contacts with" within iTunes for Windows, or "Sync Address Book Contacts" on your Mac.
You can sync your contacts with:
Microsoft Outlook 2003, Microsoft Outlook 2007, Microsoft Outlook 2010 (Windows XP, Windows Vista, or Windows 7)
Windows Address Book (Windows XP)
Windows Contacts (Windows Vista / Windows 7)
Address Book (Mac OS X)
Microsoft Entourage 2004, Microsoft Entourage 2008, or Microsoft Outlook 2011 for Mac
Note: If using Microsoft Entourage, use Microsoft Entourage 2008 12.1.2 or later if syncing with Mac OS X v10.6 or later. If you would like to sync data on your Mac with Entourage, enable syncing between Entourage and Address Book.
Notes:
When syncing contacts, you can choose to sync all of your contacts or only selected groups. The option to sync selected items may not show up until after the first sync.
You can select a group of contacts to which all new contacts created on your iOS device will be added.
Additional options for syncing include syncing your contacts with Yahoo or Gmail/Google Mail. You will need to configure it with the user name and password for your Yahoo or Google account.

Exhcange syncs with iPhone but won't sync with outlook at home

After hours of trying to get my iphone to sync with the exchange servers at work I have got it to work.
Now I am trying to setup my home computer to also be able to sync with my work exchange server. I can't seem to get it to work, I do the obvious (enter server info and user name) but it wont work.
In the iPhone I have the following information -
Email - username.lasm.company.com
Server - lasm.company.com
Usernme - domain\username
Password - password
Use SSL is enabled
In outlook I have
Server - lasm.company.com
username - username
but I can't get it to work.
If it helps, to access the company website it is just company.com and to access web email it is lasm.company.com/exchange but lasm.company.com will just forward you to the exchange website also.
PLEASE HELP

Yes, this is how my exchange works. I can get my Exchange account fine using ActiveSync via an iPhone. I can access Outlook via the web on my iPhone or a Desktop PC using a web browser.
If you are entering the same settings in Outlook on your home PC as they are set on your work PC and you can't connect to the Exchange server at home it's because your work won't allow a connection from outside their network.
Ideally, you need to contact your IT department as they should be able to tell you if can configure Outlook on your home PC to connect to their Exchange server or not. However, if they won't allow it then then there is not a lot you can do.
Windows Mobile devices that run ActiveSync also sync with Outlook. Because of this you get a sync'ed version of your Exchange account on your home PC via your Windows Mobile device. At the moment iPhone/iTunes does not do this. There have been a few comments on these forums about the omission of this functionality so please use http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html and feedback to Apple if you require this. If you have a MobileMe account you can get around this problem as you can sync from Exchange > MobileMe > Outlook, but MobileMe is a subscription service.

Why build a phone that wont sync with outlook??

I know I can upload all my contact info to google as .csv, but why OH WHY did they design this thing that will not simply sync with my outlook calendar and contacts. Unbelievable. My iPad was seamless, flawless, simple.

Your premise is not true - the Razr (and any Android device) will sync with Outlook Calendar and Contacts. There are many different options depending on how you are using Outlook (personal pc, corporate exchange server, etc) and what and how you want to sync.
Here is a pretty complete list of software to sync Outlook and Exchange to an Android device. If you click on the software's title you will learn more about it and it often will show you how to set up the connection.

Iphone calendar does not sync with OUTLOOK 2013

iphone 4 calendar does not sync with OUTLOOK 2013 calendar. Can anyone help? Iphone [Apple] will not provide support

Why won't Apple provide support? Do you mean free support if your iPhone is no longer under warranty if the AppleCare extended warranty was purchased for your iPhone, or if the initial 90 days of free telephone support after the purchase date has expired? If you no longer have free telephone support, free support is provided at an Apple Store if there is one nearby.
