I am unable to add my iPhone contacts to my icloud contacts as viewed on my Mac Pro

I am just learning about how to use the iPhone 5s and the Mac Pro and don't know how to merge my iPhone contacts and my contacts on my Mac Pro OSX 10.9.1, which are somewhat different, any ideas? I have been using I Cloud on my Mac Pro and on the iPhone, but they don't merge. Thanks in advance for helping me. 

Make a master list, preferably on iCloud.
You should be able to move contacts around via iTunes.
Just drop the vCards into the Address Book and wait for the sync to finish.

  • Hello! Ever since I upgraded my iPhone 5s to IOS 7.1, I am unable to access the iPhone Keyboard if I access contacts the recent calls tab. I am also unable to access the keyboard if I want to search for a contact as long as I went through the recent calls

    Hello! Ever since I upgraded my iPhone 5s to IOS 7.1, I am unable to access the iPhone Keyboard if I access contacts using the recent calls tab. I am also unable to access the keyboard if I want to search for a contact as long as I went through the recent calls tab. Has anyone a fix for this problem? If you want to try it out, do the following?
    Dial a number from your iPhone Keypad. After cutting the call, try to save the number you just dialled to your contacts by choosing the new contact option. You will see that you will not be able to key in the name of your new contact.

    Works fine for me.
    Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps BEFORE doing the reset.

  • How can I import contacts into my icloud contacts from an excel file?

    I need to add contacts to my icloud contact data base.  Can I import from an Excel file?
    Thanks,

    Not directly, export from Excel to a .csv file, then convert the .csv file to a .vcf (vCard) file. Then iCloud can import the vCard file.
    Here is a free csv to vcard conversion utility.

  • OSX SERVER - Contacts server- migrating icloud contacts

    hi folks, I am migrating away from storing any of my data in the cloud.
    I have an osx server setup and want to migrate my contacts away from icloud contacts, and onto the osx contacts server only.
    any advice on, whats the best way to go about this.
    thanks

    If this helps this is what I have done now, having put together advice and hints from others with a little of my own knowledge.
    Export each Calendar to a .ics file.
    Install OS X Server on Macbbook Pro.
    Set up a user on the server called syncuser with associated password.
    Limited this user to access only Calendar and Contact services.
    In Calendar app on Macbook connect to Calendar service via Preferences>Accounts.
    In the left hand pane of Calendar there will now be an OS X Server section. Create a calendar to match each of your 'ON My Mac' calendars and import the relevant .ics file into each.
    On the iPhone in settings>mail,contacts,calendars create a calendars account and enter the syncuser details. There should now be duplicate events if you elected to keep the original data on the iPhone. At the bottom of the screen there are now 3 links:- Today   Calendars   Inbox. I don't remember theses being there before.
    If you navigate to a date other than today, touching Today takes you straight back to today.
    Touching Calendars lets you choose which calendars to use, turn off the display of those 'From My PC' and you will be left with only the events synchronised from your mac.
    Now in Contacts>Preferences>Accounts on the Mac create a contacts account using syncuser credentials again.
    In the left hand pane of Contacts there will be an 'All OS X Server' section. The instructions I found (Ithink they were pre-Mavericks) said select all contacts in 'All On My Mac' and drag them to 'All on OS X Server' THIS DOES NOT WORK. Iinstead, go back to Contacts>Preferences>Accounts and create another contacts account just like before. This will create an 'All servername.home' section in the left pane and you CAN drag contacts to this.
    I think the first one logs in to the server and exposes the services available and the second one connects to the contacts service.
    Finally, back to the iPhone in settings>mail,contacts,calendars create a contacts account, you can keep the local data again, and in Contacts>Groups turn off 'All on My Phone'.
    That's it.
    A suggestion for those who live away from access to internet services or who travel a lot, obtain a small wifi router and set up access to it from each of your devices, I would also limit access to it to the MAC address of each of your devices. You should now be able to sync locally over wifi wherever you are, you don't need to connect it to broadband. It's a pain having to carry another piece of kit rather than a cable but at least they are smalland if I am correct that this would work it solves the problem of local sync.
    Good Luck

  • HT1727 i bought some ringtones on my iPhone, later on i sync my iphone to my old computer now i have a new mac pro desktop and i only have 2 ringtones on my phone but not the rest of them how can i get them back without having to pay for them again?

    i bought some ringtones on my iPhone, later on i sync my iphone to my old computer now i have a new mac pro desktop and i only have 2 ringtones on my phone but not the rest of them how can i get them back without having to pay for them again?

    If you bought them on your iPad then you will need to connect your iPad to your computer's iTunes and do File > Devices > Transfer Purchases to copy them over to the Tones part of your computer's iTunes library and you can then sync them to your iPhone - ringtones are a one-time only download, so you won't be able to redownload them directly on your phone.

  • Unable to add network printers from Windows Server 2012 R2 to client running Windows 7 Pro x64

    New Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard in the environment.  Added print services to it and added five HP printers to it and shared them.  Also deployed the printers via group policy.
    Clients are running Windows 7 Pro x64.  The group policy fails to install the printers (error 0x00000002).  We get the same error when trying to manually add the printer from the client side.
    From Event Viewer: Group Policy was unable to add per computer connection <<printer share>>. Error code 0x2. This can occur if the name of the printer connection is incorrect, or if the print spooler cannot contact the print server.
    Any ideas on troubleshooting this?
    Thanks.
    -John

    John,
    You might try playing with the HP universal driver, that might help you.  Try installing a new shared printer on the server using the universal print driver, then try and connect to it to see if it is any better.
    Check these GPO settings to ensure local machines can install the drivers.
    1. Configure the following two Group Policy settings:
    Computer Configuration\Policies\Administrative Templates\System\Driver Installation\Allow non-administrators to install drivers for these devices setup classesEnabled
    2. Device class GUID of printers: {4d36e979-e325-11ce-bfc1-08002be10318}
    Computer Configuration/Policies/Administrative Templates/Printers/Point and Print RestrictionsEnabled
    Security Prompts: When Installing Drivers for a new connection = Do not show warning or elevation prompt

  • No contacts appear in icloud contacts

    I open up icloud.com on my Windows computer and sign into icloud. Press on the contacts icon and no contacts appear. why?

    I have find out something and want to share with you though I had no answer from anyone. If you backed up your information on iTunes (espacially contacts, other stuff may appear on your iphone, ipad anyway) you have to restore it from the computer you have backed up on. If you have a new one probably conacts will not sync.

  • Can I add both a HD 2600 XT and 8800 GT to a new Mac Pro

    I just purchased the new Mac Pro and got the base config. with the HD 2600 XT. The way my setup works is I need to use this Mac Pro with 3 monitors, all within close areas within the office. We will have a wireless/bluetooth keyboard/mouse and since it's within 15 ft. we don't expect to have problems. With the monitors we will have to run DVI Cables around doors so it should be more like 20-22 ft. I was going to purchase a DVI splitter such as the one from Monoprice.com but figured my best solution is to add a video card. These monitors need to be mirrored but won't have to all display at the same time.
    I came to the conclusion it's almost as good to just add a 2nd video card. I am considering the 8800 GT but am wondering, if I have a system with both the 2600 XT and 8800 GT will it cause problems? To be safe am I better off just getting another 2600 XT? If so, where can I purchase it? I can find the 8800 GT on Apple's site but can't find the 2600 XT anywhere. I don't do much gaming other than X-Plane but do some Adobe CS3 work in Photoshop, Illustrator, and inDesign, some HD video in Final Cut Studio, and other than that basic office work in iWork, Office, and mail, ical, and safari web browsing.

    When I called Apple they told me that I wouldn't be able to use my current 2600 with the 8800 (if it ever gets here). They said I could use two 8800's or multiple 2600's but not an 8800 and 2600 together. I may give it a try anyways because I'd like to run 3 monitors.
    If I were you I think I'd just get one of the 2600's that are likely to start showing up on E-bay when people start to finally get their 8800's. That is if you can wait until March.
    Best of luck.

  • HT4489 How do I import a csv file of contacts into my icloud contact list?

    Would like to bring outlook contacts from Enterprise Email that have been saved as a CSV file into my icloud contact list.  I keep getting pop up that says it won't allow my process.
    Thoughts

    You would need to do something like create a Gmail account, then export your Outlook contacts to Gmail (see http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/outlook-help/export-outlook-contacts-to-google -gmail-HA001148902.aspx), then export the contacts as a vCard from Gmail (see https://support.google.com/mail/answer/24911?hl=en) and import it to iCloud (see http://support.apple.com/kb/PH3605).

  • Google CONTACT sync with iCloud Contact sync?!

    i am trying to finalize a sync of my contacts so that i have PHONE NUMBERS sorted in groups on my iPhone but i /also/ have email addresses to use in the autocomplete function in Mail on my phone.
    if i don't have the Phone Numbers sorted into groups i will not be able to find anything and if i don't have emails in the autocomplete then i have to literally run a search in (what i have found to be a weak search function on the iPhone in Mail) then i have to find an email sent from this person, then i have to COPY the address than i have to paste it into an email.
    i /currently/ have a sync using iCloud of my MOST IMPORTANT phone numbers and the "Previous Recipients" email data that i have run a applescript to get into AB/Contacts. So now the phone numbers and this Previous Recipients data is available to all devices.
    i won't bore you with the details but i am finally uploading everything else (business cards etc, etc) to Google Contacts.
    does anyone have any suggestions at this point as to whether i can ADD a sync with Google presumably by checking something in iTunes OR whether there is a way to add a GMail as a Microsoft Exchange Account?

    SHOULD I JUST EXPORT MY CONTACTS/ADDRESS BOOK DATA and import it to Google and just do a Google sync?
    CAN I DO BOTH SYNCS AT THE SAME TIME?
    WILL THE GOOGLE DATA SHOW UP in autocomplete in MAIL on all my devices?
    anyone done this in a way that works?!
    THANKS

    Preference -> Accounts
    Under accounts you have your local On My Mac account, which Apple supplies the ability to sync with google and yahoo. Then there is no way to sync it with icloud. When you add your icloud account as well you just have 2 seperate address books in the same app, with no way to keep them in sync.
    Do you mean like this?
    I don't seem to be having any issue adding an iCloud account to address book.

  • How do I move all of my contacts from one iCloud contacts group into another group (all iCloud) without having to make all my contacts again?

    So on my iPod I have all of my contacts but on my iPad I don't. This is because my contacts are NOT in the iCloud group. Is it possible to move all of your contacts to a different group (for me iCloud group) so I can have my contacts on my iPad (without having to creat all of my contacts again in the iCloud group from scratch). Thanks :)

    Do the contacts that are not in iCloud belong to an external account such as Gmail, Yahoo or an Exchange account?  Or, do they belong to On My iPhone?

  • Deleting Empty Contact Group? iCloud contact syncing issues.

    I have two contact groups on my iPhone with no contacts in them.  How do I delete them from my iPhone?  They are annoying. I have read multiple threads on this topic and still can't figure it out.
    Also, after backing up to iCloud - not one of my 84 contacts actually backed up?  Is there some setting I am missing? Only one contact showed up and it was my own name and email address?
    Any help would be great.
    Thanks.

    Best way is to use a 3rd party app managing groups. Easy Group is a free one I have developped.
    Launch it, all your groups will automatically appear
    Tap on "Edit"
    Tap on red cross next to the groups you want to delete
