HT204150 I am trying to synch my outlook contacts only to Icloud.

When I open the Icloud control panel in my Windows 7 I do not get a tickbox option for contacts.  Instead I see tickboxes only for photostream and bookmarks.  Where I would expect to see tickboxes for say contacts or calendar   ( as seen in the Apple website instructions ) all I see is one icon that covers contacts, calendarrs and reminders with text saying   " contacts, calendars and reminders are available at "Icloud.com"    This links to my Icould account and seems to work between my iphone and the cloud.  How do I link this synching to outlook as well if there is no link to tick

You need to plug it in to iTunes. Once it starts working again, back up the old iPhone to iCloud then go to iCloud in settings. Turn on contacts then you get them back. Another option is to back up to iTunes with the old one, then on the new one, go on iTunes, click restore backup, and choose the old iPhone. I suggest using icloud. Hope it helps!

    I use Plaxo for my contacts, and I want it to synch my Outlook contacts with my PC.  I got a new HP PC with the (awful) Windows 8.0 operating system, and, to say the least, I miss the good old days.   Plaxo customer support tells me that I can't use my iCloud contact synch because they clash. 
    My question: How do I disable my iCloud contact synch feature while still allowing the rest of iCloud (music, photos) to operate as usual.
    What mysterious steps must I take in order to do this and not cause a complete meltdown in the process?  The meltdown that I fear most is the one that happens between my ears.

    Music is nothing to do with iCloud but Photostream is, so turn off Mail, Contacts and Calendars (in the iCloud Control Panel) and leave everything else on.
    You will lose iCloud Calendars and Mail as well as Contacts, but you can manually re-enable mail (if you use iCloud email)

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Use your back up on your mac/PC and re-add your contacts to Address Book or whatever contact software you use.

  • A Separte contact lists was created on BB when I tried to synch with Outlook 2010

    Device: BB Style 9670
    Carrier: Sprint
    OS: 6.0 Bundle 3049 (v6.0.0.706)
    I am not using an enterprise server.  I had used an enterprise server over a year ago, but I removed the IT policy when I stopped using the enterprise server.
    I have been synching my BB calender with MS Outlook 2010 for the last year, but I have not been synching my contacts.  I decided to synch the two, but when I did, instead of synching them, a new contact list was created on my BB with the Outlook contacts, and none of the BB contacts were moved into Outlook.  Both contact lists are titled "Desktop."
    Is there a way to merge the contact lists, or change which list is merged with Outlook? 

    After posting, I found a post with a similar problem after I posted my message. I'll try the fix suggested in it ("Cleanly 'Starting Over' with the Desktop Software"). That solution does not really solve the problem:
     I had used a fresh install of BB Desktop Software on a new computer.
    The data on my BB is different from the data on my laptop, and I don't want to loose it (hence wanting to synch it)

  • My iPad synchs my Outlook tasks via the iCloud, but my iPhone does not.

    Hi Everyone,
    I've updated my iPad and iPhone to iOS 5. I've also added the iCloud client to my Windows 7 machine running Outlook 2007.
    New tasks that are added into Outlook synch via the iCloud to my iPad, like I would expect. They appear in a 'Tasks' list within the Reminders app itself.
    However, on my iPhone which connects to the iCloud using the same Apple ID as my iPad, there are no Tasks! In fact, there isn't even an empty Tasks list (the tasks list was created on the iPad after the first synch).
    If I create a new Reminder (not a task) on my iPad, that synchs accross between iPad and iPhone via the cloud. It simply seems the Tasks are only eligable for synching between Outlook and iPads... not iPhones?
    Can anyone confirm this is expected behavior?

    Hi,
    i youse Outlook and Iphone 3gs and i can sync and it would be displayed in the notification center.
    But it would not displayed in the tasklist from outlook.

  • Outlook contacts up to icloud

    How do you get outlook contacts from a pc up to icloud, I have downloaded the windows for icloud, I can only see that you can places photos up to the drive, please.... there has to be an easy way, I even went to the apple store and did a 1hr basic icloud training and they were  not 100% sure how to do it either and rec to download windows for icloud... but where do I go know.. thank you in advanced

    Thank you, pvonk, for responding.
    1. I'm about to show my ignorance about computers:  Your first two sentences seem to me to be completely contradicting each other...so I have no clue what you were trying to tell me there. Sorry.
    2. I have no contacts in  iCloud, yet.  In the Help, it said it "pushes" contacts to Outlook automatically.  I took that to mean that, unless there was some way to tell it not to, any modifcations I made to contacts in my iPhone would (if I used iCloud to backup my iPhone) would end up also changing my Outlook contacts. So I haven't yet told my iPhone to send its contacts to  iCloud.
    3. I currently do back up my iPhone Calendar to iCloud. (I don't use the one in Outlook anyway...didn't care what happened to Outlook Calendar).  So far, it doesn't seem to change my Outlook Calendar...not sure why not, it is supposed to...but it gave me hope that there was a way to also not mess with Outlook Contacts???

  • How can I import outlook contacts in my icloud?

    I exported outlook contacts as csv and xls  - but there is no way to import them all at once in my icloud contacts. How can help?

    Why don't you just install the iCloud Control Panel on your PC and let iCloud do it for you?

  • HT1535 How do I do a one-way sync from computer to I-pad? Outlook Contacts only.  It has already been synced and there is bad info on I-pad that I don't want on my computer.

    How do I do a one way sync from contacts in computer (Outlook), to contacts on I pad (also for I-phone)?  Contacts on I-Pad are incorrect and I do not want to add them back to my computer?
    Alternatively, is there any way to delete contact groups all at once instead of one contact at a time?
    Thank you in advance...

  • Syncing Outlook contacts/calendars to iCloud? Back up .pst file first!

    I see many people are having issues with losing calendars and contacts, or getting duplicates, when turning on iCloud "sync to Outlook" option. Suggestion, if you haven't already messed things up - save a renamed copy of your Outlook (2007 or 2010) "outlook.pst" file (or whatever .pst file holds your personal Outlook data) BEFORE you start. In a worst case, you can always turn iCloud off and replace the .pst file with the backup, and you will have your calendar and contacts (as of that date) as they were. (Outlook account settings - Data Files - Open File Location).
    I have managed not to need it yet, but glad I have it. I still have occasional Calendar items disappearing from Outlook - work shifts, not good! Hopefully Apple will make this easier! Great when it works!

  • TS4147 Syncing contacts only through iCloud with Outlook 2007 and iPhone & iPad I have duplicate contacts only on the iPhone & iPad.  If I remove one of the duplicates the other one is also removed.  A solution would be appreciated.

    Please tell me how to elimante duplicate contacts on my iPhone & iPad.  I am syncing Outlook 2007 contacts through iCloud (NOT iTunes).  There are no duplicates in Outlook, nor in iCloud, but there are duplicates on the iPhone & iPad.  If I remove one of the duplicates the other duplicate disappears.  Thank you.

    Go to contacts on your phone/ipad, click groups, make sure that the only checked contacts are icloud. That shoud do.

  • HT1296 synch microsoft outlook with iphone

    I am trying to synch my Outlook email on the computer to my iPhone. 

    You have two choices.
    First: Plug in your iPhone, go on iTunes, then Info, and change the "Contacts" "Calendar" "Mailbox" to Microsoft Outlook and apply. Then go on Outlook to ensure all data is synced.
    Second: You can set up an IMAP account service. There are many free IMAP account services out there. The popular one is Google but you can also do iCloud which comes with the Apple iPhone service as well.

  • HT1296 When synching Outlook Contacts and calendars with iTunes for Windows, I do not get the option to "Synch Contacts with". It says, and cannot be changed, that it is synching with iCloud.  How do I get iTunes to give me an option other than iCloud?

    Using iTunes for Windows to synch my Outlook Contacts and Calendars into my iPhone 5, with the iPhone Device designated and in the Info tab, I do not have the option to "Synch Contacts with", but have an unchangeable message that it is synching with iCloud. How do I create that option to synch with Outlook?

  • Convert Outlook Contacts to Address Book - Help

    I am trying to convert Outlook Contracts to Snow Leopard Mac Address Book. I have been successful in converting and importing all contacts, but contacts with multiple e-mail addresses in Outlook Contacts only imported one e-mail per contact. My source file that I am using to import into MAC Address Book is a vCard file. I created the vCard file two different ways. First I tried Sperry Softward Add-In for Outlook. Next I tried importing the Sperry Softward source file into Google G-Mail Contacts. It imported into G-Mail successfully (multiple emails per each contact sucessfully imported). I then exported from G-Mail to create a new source file and imported the new file into MAC Address Book. It again, did not work.
    Any thoughts? Thanks <D

  • Outlook Contacts to iCloud

    My boss imported all of his outlook contacts to his icloud contacts.  I need to make groups for him and apple told us we have to do that through icloud on my pc.  icloud won't drag and drop contacts to the group - the error message reads that this action is not supported by the browser.  I have tried google chrome, internet explorer, and safari and am having no luck.  The webpage also locks up as soon as I get in there and try to drag and drop.  Can anyone help me solve this problem?

    Yes, you can though that will be by means of an additional program called “Akruto”! It’s similar to iTunes app however the difference is that using “Akruto” you’ll be able to sync your Outlook contacts to iCloud.
