I am unable to import my gmail contacts to my ipad2

How come I can't import my gmail contacts to my iPad ?

I don't have a gmail account, but according to this page http://www.google.com/support/mobile/bin/answer.py?answer=138740 if you set up the account as an Exchange account (not as gmail) then you should be able to sync your contacts from it

  • Syncing gmail contact groups with ipad2

    I wish to sync my gmail contacts groups using microsoft exchange on the iPad2. Everything syncs correctly except the gmail groups I have created for my contacts.  Anyone have a solution ?

    I just set up syncing with Gmail Contacts for my wife's iPad this morning. IOS doesn't handle Groups. I've seen lots of gripes about this in many places online. I've also seen it suggested that we should suggest this as a "feature" to Apple. I'm going to look all day today for a place to do this. I hope you will, too. Good luck!

  • HT4489 Unable to import a single .vcf file of one contact that is only 2KB.  Why is it invalid?

    Exporting a .vcf file from Outlook, I'm unable to import a single contact into iCloud as it says it is invalid.  The file is only 2KB.  I only have a few contacts in iCloud.  What needs to be tweaked?  Thanks.

    Which version of vCard are you exporting from Outlook.

  • How do I import or sync gmail contacts with verizon messaging?

    I am setting up verizon messaging on my laptop and missed the opportunity to import my gmail contacts. Is there a way to go back and import these contacts?

        Hi Granto,
    I am so excited to hear that you are using Verizon Messages! Verizon Messages uses your phone’s address book and contact list. It doesn’t generate a unique address book. To improve your messaging experience you can sign up for the Back Up Assistant(sm) service that allows you to back up all contacts from your primary smartphone to the Verizon Cloud. This will allow for your contacts to be synced on Verizon Messages on your tablet, PC,and web http://vz.to/1j3aYBq . Are these gmail contacts appearing on your phone?
    Thanks,

  • Synching gmail contact groups with the iPhone

    Can I import my gmail contact groups into an iPhone/Macbook?  Do I need to put them in the iContacts or some other way.  Thank you..

    Found out I was using Outlook 2000. Syncing won't work unless you use Outlook 2003 or higher. I got around this by going into Outlook contacts and did the following steps under the file tab I:
    1-Export to file
    2-Comma Separated Values (Windows)
    3-Named file
    4-Saved file to desktop
    Then I copied the contacts file to mobile thumb and imported them to Windows Address on another computer. From there I synced with my IPhone.
    I found out Windows Address mirrors anything under Outlook. Because my Outlook is old and in the wrong format using my Windows Address will do the same thing thus I needed to copy info to another computer in order to use Windows Address. I will upgrade Outlook and see how that works but for now I have a temporary fix to problem.
    Hope this helps.

  • Is it possible to uninstall OS Mountain Lion and go back to OS Lion?  This upgrade has been a headache! Mail freezes, all contacts all gone and I am unable to import them again.  HELP?

    I recently downloaded and install OS Mountain Lion on my iMac.  Consequently none of the new mail features are available and everytime I attempt to check for new mail or send mail, the mail app freezes and has to be forced closed.  Also, all of my contacts are gone, and I am unable to import them back.  And I just discovered that all of my calendar items are missing too.  Is anyone else experiencing these issues?

    Thank you for the tip, Andreas. That is exactly what I did for my iPad, and it works like a charm. Unfortunately, when I try to set up my Gmail accounts in Mountain Lion using Exchange services, I receive the following error after putting in m.google.com in the server address field:
    The Exchange server "(null)" is not responding. Try checking the network connection, and that the server name is correct. Otherwise, the server might be temporarily unavailable.
    I know this works for iOS, but it seems like this will not work on Mac OS X.
    Any other suggestions? Thank you.

  • How can I import all my gmail contacts into iPad? I use iPad mini and the solutions available on the web are not compatible.

    How can I import all my gmail contacts into iPad? I use iPad mini and the solutions available on the web are not compatible.

    Hello and thanks for the answer.
    I meant by "not compatible" that all the solutions that I found on the web did not work, especially the "Microsoft exchange" one.
    Fortunately I found on the comments of the first website you mentioned the right answer for me, which I copy below:
    Tap Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Add Account > Other > Add CardDav Account.
    Enter the following information in the fields:
    Server: google.com
    User Name: Enter your full Google email address
    Password: Your Google account password
    Select Next at the top of the screen to complete the setup.
    After you have completed the setup, open the Contacts app on your device. Syncing should begin automatically.
    Additional Information
    Note: Make sure that SSL is enabled (under Advanced settings), and that the port is 443.
    If you are using application based special password go to https://accounts.google.com/Se... and instead of your password put that special code and u r done.

  • Unable to Sync Gmail contacts with iCloud

    I'm wanting to export my Gmail contacts to a vCard to import into iCloud on my computer so that all of my contacts are in iCloud. I exported all of my contacts to a vCard from Gmail, put it on my computer and dragged the file into the iCloud Contacts section. When I try to drag it over to iCloud in my browser, I get an error message stating "This vCard cannot be imported because it contains invalid contact data."
    What am I doing wrong here? I only have about 250 contacts to sync, so it isn't the contact limit and it is only 28k in size, so it isn't a size limit issue either. How do I correctly import all of my contacts into the iCloud? Thanks!

    I just imported contacts from gmail to icloud. Check all of your contacts or the ones you want to move, click on the more tab, click export, save the file, log into icloud , click contacts, click settings, click import, find the saved file. Contacts should import.

  • Import GMail Contacts? How to?

    I'm a new Mac user and would like to sync my many GMail  contacts with Apple Mail. The aim is to be able to start typoing a contact in Apple Mail and autofill the rest of the e-mail address that I have had in Gmail.
    Right now that isn't happening. I looked around in Preferences and noticed my 2 Gmail accounts are ther but Enable this account is not checked. I AM getting all my Gmails downloaded so I don't want to fix something which isn't broken. What does checking that box accomplish?
    Thanks in advance.
    Mark

    In Internet Accounts System Prferences, Gmail, select the Contacts box. Your gmail contacts will now be part of Contacts along with your iCloud and/or ON MY MAC contacts.
    I don't use Gmail contacts, but I don't see why that wouldn't work.
