How do I upload my contacts, calendar and notes from outlook 2007 to my new iPad with retina display

I also have an iCloud account
How do I get the contacts, calendar and notes from outlook to any of these devices, so I can have one synced contact file on all three devices?
I'm sure I am not the first one asking about this but I am new to Apple, and loving it.

With your device connected and iTunes open, navigate to the 'info' tab and scroll down. You'll see the option to sync contacts and such from outlook.

I ran into this same issue this morning and from what I read within the Apple Communities, the only way to now sync is to use iCloud.
I set this up afterward and it seems to work.
Make sure you choose your calendar's under the iCloud secition of your calandar's.

How do I delete a contact which is not in my contact list or anywhere else?

I need to delete contact information (email addresses and names) on my iPhone which keep coming up every time I type a remotely similar name in Mail, but isn't in my contact list.
I tried searching for the name and then the associated email address using the iPhone but came up with no result. I searched for the name and then the associated email address inside of my HP HDX-18t (Vista Ultimate 64bit) but came up with no result. I tried searching for the name and then the associated email address using the iPhone but came up with no result. I searched for the name and then the associated email address inside of my Yahoo account (using my Vista PC, not the iPhone) but came up with no result. I searched for the name and then the associated email address inside of all of my other email addresses and devices but came up with no result.
These names and the associated email addresses show up only in my iPhone and absolutely nowhere else. I tried Restoring my iPhone and that did not resolve the problem. Using the iPhone I tried going to Settings - General - Reset - Erase All Content and Settings. This did not solve the problem.
Every time I've ever sent an email to an email address and received a response from that email address that email address and name associated with the response has been stored someplace in the phone but no place else. This is a major pain because every time I try to send an email to one of my actual contacts I have to either type out their full name or flick through a stream of contacts which are not in any of my sources. This means I cannot send an email quickly (I'm using an iPhone so I should be used to a lack of speed, huh?) and am often lost in a sea of names and email addresses I cannot eliminate.
How do I get rid of this? I want all of the names and addresses which are not in any of my other locations gone! These are not even in my iPhone Contacts or even in the Sent email folders so there must be a way to delete them without their coming back!?!?!???!??!
Thanks all who answer with solutions which serve to solve the problem.

Try logging into your Yahoo account from a computer, search out the contact you are trying to delete and manually correct or delete the bad contact.
The bad information might be hidden as a second address or other contact information (or misspelled) and not be showing up on the iphone but will pull up the address anyway.
I had one old address in a contact that kept pulling up each time i tried to email him. The new address was there, but the old address was what the phone kept showing. When I edited the contact info from my computer the old address went away, and the new address started poping up.

How can I transfer my contacts, calendar items, notes etc. from one apple-id to another?

I moved from DK to the US and now I have created a US-apple-ID. How do I transfer all my contacts, calendar items, notes etc. from my DK-apple-ID to my new US-apple-ID?

Hey kristina rivera!
You will first want to export your contacts from iCloud using the following article:
iCloud: Export contact information as a vCard
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH3606
You will then want to log in to her iCloud account, then import the vCard file that had been exported from your iCloud account:
iCloud: Import a vCard

Take care, and thanks for visiting the Apple Support Communities.

HT201269 How can i sync my contacts from the iPhone to my mac pro?

Hi
I am trying to sync my contacts on my IPhone to the mac pro but it seems not work.
Any one faced this issue and solved, Please advice.
Regards

If you want your contacts to remain in sync across iOS devices, then you can use any Exchange-type of account. For example, once you have a "clean" set of contacts with no duplicates, you could upload that into iCloud so that any change you make from your iPad would be reflected on your iPhone. You don't have to use iCloud for e-mail since your devices can pull a contact from iCloud for use with GMail or Yahoo.
But you can also set GMail up as an Exchange account if you don't want to use iCloud. The GMail account type in iOS is not Exchange, but you can set it up that way:
http://support.google.com/mobile/bin/answer.py?l=en&topic=14252&answer=138740
The benefit of doing this is (a) your Google contacts remain in sync across all your devices, and (b) your GMail will then support Push notification. Just one caveat, when you do this then the default behavior when you delete an e-mail is such that it is archived to your "All Mail" folder in GMail. The only way to change this behavior is to use your device's Safari to navigate to m.google.com/sync and change the setting on Google's server for each of your devices. This is a one-time thing, but important if you want trashed e-mails to really go to Trash.
As far as Contact Management Software options to clean things up, Google search is the only recommendation I have

How do i sync my contacts from iPhone 4s to my mac?

I am trying to sync from contacts from iPhone 4S to my mac. I thought it would all work with iCloud, but it doesn't. Can someone help me please? thanks

Using iTunes, back up your iPhone 3G by rightclicking the name of your iPhone that appears in the "devices" tab on iTunes when you have plugges it into the computer. Once the back up has been completed, plug in your iPhone 4S and select "restore from backup". All of your files on your iPhone 3G should be successfully transfered to your iPhone 4S.

How can I get my contacts from iPhone ios5 to my mac osx10.6

I recently upgraded my late model 2006 iMac to OS Lion. I also updated my iPhone to IOS5.
Lion is not really configured to work seamlessly with an older mac, so I reverted back to OSX 10.6.
This means I've lost all contacts in my address book.
Is there a way of retrieving contacts from my iPhone IOS5 so I can add them back onto my mac?
This is so frustrating and until I can afford a new mac, I need to find a way of getting my contacts back.
At the moment I don't want to synch my phone with my mac for fear of losing content on my phone.

It might take a bit longer, but it's risk free:
Use your iMac to send your contacts in an email to yourself
Open them using your iphone.
They should arrive as vcf format and you click to open it and hey presto!
Also works the other way round, so when I receive an email from a new contact, I register it on my iphone and click on "share contact", sending it to me which I then open on my Powerbook.

How do I move my contacts from TimeMachine to my new Mac?

Hi all. My old MBP was one with a faulty nvidia graphics card, and it conveniently went out 22 days after the warranty was void, so I've since bought a new MBA currently running 10.7.2. I have a few contacts on my TimeMachine backup from my old MBP that I'll never get again in my entire life if I can't move them over from my external hard drive. Is there a way to do it? I don't particularly want to restore my old machine on the new one—only the contacts from AddressBook. Can it be done? Help!

Normal files are relatively easy, via the Browse Other Backup disks option, but this is a tough one.
AddressBook contacts are, well, weird. The way they're stored makes it very difficult to find them; and you can't use the browse option with the special handler for Address Book contacts.
They're stored in the <your home folder>/Library/Application Support/AddressBook folder. Each contact is a separate file inside the Metadata folder there, but you can't tell which one is which, since they're named with UUIDs that look like gibberish, not anything recognizable to us mere mortals.
Here's what I'd suggest:
Use the Migration Assistant app to transfer part of the user account from the old Mac's backups (temporarily).
For details, see Using Migration Assistant on Lion. If that user account has the same as an existing one on your new Mac, rename it, per the last sample in the pink Migrating User Accounts box.
Select only the user account that has the contacts, and exclude all its sub-folders. That will transfer everything in the Library sub-folder, including, of course, all the contacts.
Log on to the transferred account. Start the AddressBook app and locate the contacts you want.
For each one, select the contact, then File > Export > Export vCard from the menubar. Select a destination (such as the default of the special Shared user account) for the contact.
Log on to the account where you want the contacts and start AddressBook. Click File > Import from the menubar. That should default to the Shared user account; select all the contacts and click the Open button to import them.
When done, delete them from the Shared user account, and delete the temporary user account.

Yahoo e-mail will not allow me to add contacts and will not auto fill e-mail addresses, and now I'm having trouble downloading Adobe documents from my bank. All of these problems can be solved by using Internet Explorer, but I prefer Firefox.

I get an error message when trying to add new contacts and it is suggested I try back later, also when sending an e-mail the address I wish to send an e-mail to will no longer auto-fill. This has been a problem for sometime, maybe a month. The last problem I had was trying to download my March bank statement, in Adobe. If I switch to Internet Explorer I can accomplish these tasks. I am using Yahoo on both Firefox and Internet Explorer.

Check the Ethernet connection to the AirPort Express. Make sure that the Ethernet connection from the Comcast modem is connected to the WAN port on the back of the AirPort Express. The WAN port is the one with the circle of dots shown over the port.
It sounds like you are connected to the Ethernet LAN port.

HT2486 How do you make a group list? Not a smart group.

I am trying to make a group list on my contact list and wondered how it is done? Thank you.

This is for "iCloud" but it also talks about how to do it in Address book.
