I cloud contact trouble

On my iPhone it indicates that my contacts etc. are being backed-up, but when I go to icloud.com, my contact list is completely blank. I use Windows 7.
What am I missing?

Hi Dixon55,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. iCloud backups and iCloud contacts syncing are independent features. For information on what iCloud backs up, see this article:
iCloud: iCloud storage and backup overview

If your contacts are not syncing between your iPhone and iCloud.com as you describe above, this article has some steps that may help:

Welcome to the Apple Community.
First check that all your settings are correct, that contact syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
Make sure the contacts you are adding are added to your 'iCloud' group and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud group (you can do this by checking in groups), non iCloud contacts will not sync.
If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your contacts are in the iCloud group, you might try unchecking contact syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling contact syncing.

Cloud contacts backup fail

I have an LG G2 and Verizon ellipsis tablet. I keep getting this error when trying to backup to the cloud : "cloud contacts backup failed due to network lost!"

Change all of your contacts to Google contacts and let them back themselves up to google. You will never have the hassles of Verizon Cloud again. Your contacts will be backed up real time, accurate, easy to get to and will load on any phone you choose to load them to.

I-cloud contact transfer

When I activated i-cloud it put all off my Facebook friends' names and contact info into my phone contact list. I now have 250 new contacts in my phone that I do not want. When I try to delete them it won't let me erase Facebook-linked contacts. Anyone know how to fix this?

Re: i-cloud contact transfer
Along the same lines as the original problem but considerably more confused. Thanks for any help or ideas anyone has.
Explanation first:
When I activated my iPhone4 (let's call it iPhone4-A), I transferred my contact list from my Palm Centro and then when trying to activate email, I somehow got my very large Yahoo! email contact list as well - both of which had groups. So I have Groups, duplicate people with differing information depending upon the source. If I fix them in the iPhone, it deletes Yahoo! email addresses and vice versa. In other words, my iPhone4-A Contacts are screwed up royally.
We have a MAC laptop, a MAC mini, his iPod Touch, my old iPod Classic and my iPhone all using the same iTunes account (so we can share music). I used this same email for my iCloud on the iPhone4-A (not knowing what I was doing).
I now need to set up a second iPhone4 (let's call it iPhone4-B) for my husband who is using a GzOne Ravine and I don't want to screw his up like I did mine. We don't do many apps or games.
QUESTIONS:
If I leave iTunes account alone on the laptop, mini, iPod Touch, iPod Classic and my iPhone4-A - I think I can use this iTunes account on his iPhone4-B and we might wind up with some app issues but we can still share music - right?
Next thought is, I should set up a new iCloud for his iPhone4-B and his contacts from his Ravine should transfer over and backup to iCloud - right?
I've cleaned up his Ravine contacts using Contact Management on VerizonWireless.com through whatever nightly backup it's been doing - they're appear to be okay and in groups.
He doesn't need email right away so if I don't turn on his Yahoo! email, he won't get the 2 contact lists merged on the phone. I THINK I'm going to set up a gmail for his iPhone, just for essential communications - because his 20 year old Yahoo! account gets a lot of stuff he doesn't need on a daily basis. I can create a contact list from his phone contacts for this gmail account & update it with only what he needs from Yahoo!

Deleting duplicates in the verizon cloud contacts

I need to send contacts to new razr replacement due to damage. How do I eliminate the duplicates in the cloud?

It is pretty easy. Restore all of the contacts to your phone. Change the contact storage to google. Log into Gmail and you can either merge or eliminate duplicates, leave your phone set to sync to google and never worry about it again.
with Verizon BUA or Cloud, you will run the risk of not all of your contacts being synced and or backed up to numbers within being mixed up to duplicates and triplicates. Before you do anything though make sure they are actually duplicates as BUA/Cloud has a habit of making 3 contact entries for people with 3 numbers

How to import Verizon Cloud contacts to new iPhone 6

My HTC DNA battery quit working and would no longer boot up. Luckily I had my contacts backed up to Verizon Cloud. I just purchased a new iPhone 6, however, my contacts will not import to the new IPhone 6. What am I doing wrong? It doesn't give me the option of "restoring" contacts, only restore media to the new phone.

wow thats a hard one. Not that many people have that phone. I would probably say go to store and let them try it on the machine. Since its such an old phone its going to be hard. If you synk with outlook tho I am sure you can do it.

Cloud Contacts Backup suddenenly failing repeatedly

This JUST started happening and I checked the settings last night and repeatedly ensured everything was checked to run Backups...incl Contacts of course. Everying else is backing up except Contacts suddenly and I'm getting no results trying to ensure it's set up correctly...grrr!! Frustrated! Anyone else have this problem and if so....fix?? This phone is almost brand new and has been functioning well til this...

Do you have a good cell connection? Any change in passwords? Try verifying your sign in.
It might just be a server problem that will resolve on its own.
Can you back up to Google instead? (I gave up on Verizon backup before it was 'cloud')

Verizon Cloud contacts

I have saved my contacts using the verizon cloud. This morning I deleted my email from my Iphone 5 and now my contacts are gone as well. How do I upload my contacts from verizon cloud?

Open the Verizon Cloud app and there should be a menu option to RESTORE

Printing contacts trouble and backup confirmation question

I have two questions:
1) I am trying to print all of my Contacts. I go to the page where I can see the long list of contacts, select “All,” click on the Actions dropdown menu and choose “Print,” and then I receive this message: “Something happened while we were trying to print your request. Please give it another try.” I have been trying and retrying several times a day for more than a week. What is wrong?
2) When I was using Backup Assistant, I received a “backup complete” message each morning. Now I am apparently using The Cloud, and I never see a “backup complete” message. Is that the way it is supposed to operate?

AliceinMD,
We'll help with both of these! As Ann154 stated, you can export the contacts to a CSV file and then open them in a spreadsheet to print.
The Cloud is a great improvement over the former Backup Assistant program. What device do you have? If you access the app, and then tap on the two arrows circling each other in the upper corner everything should back up for you. You will then get a notification when a backup needs to complete.

IPhone 4S contacts troubles after sync hotmail

Hi,
After synchronizing my new iPhone 4S with my hotmail account, I have had nothing but trouble with both the contact list (address book) on my iPhone and with my hotmail contacts (in my hotmail account). Contacts keep randomly disappearing (entirely or partly - only telephone number or email) from my contact list in my iPhone and hotmail has frequently been asking me (when using it on my iMac) to re-enter information on email addresses that have been in my contact list in hotmail for a long time and that have magically disappeared now. This is highly frustrating, especially as this happens whenever, and is definitely not linked to me rebooting my phone or synchronising it with my Mac (I've checked repeatedly). Does anybody know how to stop this from happening? Thank you very much in advance!

The contact entered on my Mac are not syncing to iCloud

Verizon Cloud Contacts Issue

I have photos, video, and contacts in my Verizon Cloud account. The photos and videos updated onto my new iPhone 5c, but the contacts did not. I can only access them through the Verizon Cloud app. How can I get the contacts to appear in my Contact folder on my phone?

Hi casy6!
I want to ensure you're able to get your contacts on your new iPhone 5c. You will need to install the Backup Assistant application for your new device http://vz.to/1i51t4A. Have you installed the Backup Assistant application onto your previous device and had it synced your contacts prior to activating your new device? If so, once you install the application, it will prompt you to enter your Backup Assistant PIN and it will then restore your contacts to your new device. Let me know how this works out for you. Thanks!

Verizon Cloud Contacts Backup

If I delete contacts on my phone that are backed up to the cloud will it delete them from the cloud?
I don't want the numbers stored on my phone anymore but would like to be able to retrieve them in the future if I change my mind.

I understand your desire to keep a copy of certain contacts online and not on your phone brilpitch! The cloud gets updated everytime you sync your device with it. If you want to keep a copy different than what is on your phone, I recommend creating a file with the contacts currently listed and save it to your hard drive.

Cloud contact issue

Both my wife and I have iphones and I updated them to the new os and the cloud, but when it asked for apple id i put the same id for both phones. Now We both have the same contacts ie: Hers and mine migrated into 1. So I thought if I delete hers off mine one by one it would fix the problem. Well once I delete it off my phone a minute later it is gone from hers too. Now I have read that you need to delete account and give each their own cloud apple id to solve this but when I go to do that on my phone it says it will delete all off my phone as well. We now have 100's of contacts and I really don't want to have to write them all down and then reenter them all one by one on the appropriate phones. So is there a way to resolve this issue?

This is how we resolved it. Used a 32GB Flash Drive formatted the drive HFS+ and then copied the PKG folder and files and then brought them to the target Mac and copied the files over and ran the PKG and Exceptions install. Everything seems to be installing fine now.
