I let apple update my iCloud on my pc - I lost my address book in my Outlook email program

I let Apple update my iCloud on my PC.  Now I cannot access or find my Address Book in my Outlook email progam - can anyone help me find my address book and get it activated in Outlook 2007?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
Providing you are simply updating your existing details and not changing to another account, when you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your computer, you need to sign out of the account from your computer first, then sign back in using your updated details. (System Preferences > iCloud, click the sign out button)
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iTunes account on your iOS device, you need to sign out from your iOS device first, then sign back in using your updated details. (Settings > iTunes & App store, scroll down and tap your ID)
If you are using iMessages or FaceTime, you will also need to log out and into your ID there too.

    Did you create these notes in the iPad notes App ... I assume?
    This support article will explain how you can restore from a backup - which is what you have to do in order to have any chance of recovering your note.
    How to backup and restore from a backup
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
    But you have to remember, that you will lose any of the notes that you have taken since the date of the last backup. If you synced your iPad last week, then you will lose a whole week of current notes - or whatever notes you have created since your last backup. When you restore from a backup - you restore everything in that backup onto the iPad - that was on the iPad on the time and date of the backup.
    If you backup every day, then all of your notes should be recoverable from the backup - except for any notes that you took since you last backed up. There is no foolproof way to recover everything once you start taking more notes or creating new documents or whatever that you do in an app unless you are syncing those notes with iCloud and backing up all of the time or unless the app is set to sync with iCloud as you work on the files - like in Pages, Numbers or Keynote - Apple's iWorks apps.
    If you decide to restore from an iTunes backup you should turn off at sync before you try restoring because iTunes will want to backup your iPad right away when you plug it in and you will lose your old or last backup.

  • Synching Apple Address Book to Windows Outlook

    My secretary, bless her heart, is still using Windows. When we want to update her Outlook address book so it matches my Apple Addres Book, we use Address Book Exporter and then have to map custom fields so everything transfers over to her properly.
    We don't have a Microsoft Exchange server, but I'm wondering if MobileMe now offers us an easy way for me to transfer the contacts in my Apple Address Book to her Outlook.
    Yes? If so, how?

    Did you ever get an answer to this question as I am interested in the response...thank you

  • How do we transfer contacts and mails from apple mail and address book to Microsoft outlook on my mac

    How do we transfer contacts and mails from apple mail and address book to Microsoft outlook on my mac

    From Contacts, anyway (the new version of Address Book) you can export to a .abbu file and import then into Outlook. I'm not sure about Mail as I only really use Outlook...

  • HT1386 lost my address book contacts when updating my iphone 3s

    did a recent update through itunes and lost my address book contacts on my iphone

    Aren't you using your phone as recommended and synching your contacts with your computer (Address Book, Outlook) or a cloud service?  Just synch them back.
    If you're not using your phone as recommended then your contacts are likely gone.  Lesson learned.

  • TS4147 How do I get iCloud & iPhone to use the contacts in address book on desktop?

    using Max OS X 10.6.8 with an iphone4 and it cannot seem to get my phone to use the contacts I have in my address book on the desktop.
    tried selecting "replace contacts" on the iphone for the alst update and even scrubbing the phone from start but still it wants to use my old contact list (same on iCloud)
    help please.

    Hey jel177!
    It seems like you may need to turn off your iTunes in the Cloud features and download or sync the songs manually to your phone. Here is a link that can help you adjust those settings:
    iTunes Match - iPhone
    http://help.apple.com/iphone/7/#/iph6e2dfb83
    Then, you can use this link to find your purchases and download them to your phone:

  • Since I moved to iCloud I can't Edit or Delete Address Book Contacts using my MacBook Pro

    Is not funny at all, everything was fine using Mobile Me but since I switch to iCloud I can't Edit or Delete my Address Book Contacts using my MacBook Pro or my MacPro.
    In my MacBook Pro, i open Address Book and on the left I have te list of all contacts, on the right the selected contact informations, below I only have "Add Contact" or "Share", my friend have "Edit" instead of "Add Contact".
    If I click on "Add Contact" this is the result:
    Are you sure you want to import 1 card? 1 card is a duplicate and will be updated.
    Everything fine using my iPhone or the website.
    Apple, what's going on?

    Here is some information and instructions from Apple:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3998
    Please note that iCloud is geared towards being an instantaneous (and in some cases temporary) parking place for various things with iDevices; the access and useability from a computer is more difficult and, for most things, has to be done via the website icloud.com.

  • HT4623 i have lost my address book after download of icloud, any ideas

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    It sounds as though you may have exceeded some of the limits of Address Book in iCloud.

    Maximum size of a contact card: 256 KBMaximum size of a contact photo: 224 KB
    Maximum size of a contact group: 256 KB

    Card text: 24 MB
    Card photos: 100 MB

  • New/Updated contacts on iPhone 4 not syncing to iMac Address Book

    Greetings,
    My problem:
    When syncing my iPhone 4 with iTunes 10, iTunes will sync contacts FROM my iMac to the iPhone. It will not sync new or changed contacts from the iPhone TO my iMac (no two-way syncing).
    Further background:
    I recently had Apple replace my hard drive and restored from a Time Machine backup. Everything is working properly except this.
    What I'm using:
    * iPhone 4 w/ iOS 4.1 (latest)
    * iMac 2.4 GHz Intel running OS X 10.5.8
    * iTunes 10.1 (54)
    Example:
    If I create a new contact on my iMac, it syncs with the iPhone as expected.
    On the iPhone, If I edit the contact originally created on the iMac and re-sync, the changes do NOT sync back to my iMac.
    If I create a new contact on my iPhone, it does not sync with Address Book.
    What I've tried so far that has not worked:
    1.) Unchecked and re-checked "Sync Address Book Contacts" in iTunes (one-way syncing works fine)
    2.) Used the "Replace information on this iPhone" for Contacts within iTunes (contacts from iMac overwrite iPhone as expected)
    3.) I had a trial MobileMe subscription that I cancelled months ago.
    Went into the iPhone > Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > deleted the MobileMe account, keeping existing data on my iPhone.
    4.) Unchecked "Sync Address Book Contacts"
    * Went to /users/[username]/Library/Application Support/AddressBook, deleted AddressBook-v22.abcddb and /Images
    * Went to iSync app > Preferences > Reset Sync History
    * Verified new addressbook and /Images folder were created
    * Re-checked "Sync Address Book Contacts"
    * Performed another sync using iTunes
    (One-way sync works fine)
    5.) Deleted all Address Book entries
    * Unchecked "Sync Address Book Contacts"
    * Went to /users/[username]/Library/Application Support/AddressBook, deleted AddressBook-v22.abcddb and /Images
    * Went to iSync app > Preferences > Reset Sync History
    * Verified new addressbook and /Images folder were created
    * Re-checked "Sync Address Book Contacts"
    * Performed another sync using iTunes
    Can anyone offer some suggestions? I have my address book backed up, but I'd really like to be able to perform a two-way sync from my iPhone to my iMac's Address Book.
    Thanks,
    Rob

    No need for apologies!  Yes, it was checked.  Looks like I have solved the problem now and it was something very basic - in the preferences of Contacts on the iMac.  Looks like it's all synced now.  Thanks for replying!

  • TS1717 was updating my phone and now is frozen with the iTunes and an emblem of a usb cable  wants me to restore my phone.  last time i hit restore it cleared my phone to original settings and lost my address book.

    I updated my Iphone 4 today and it gave me a message that an error occurred downloading itunes and that i need to restore my phone to use itunes.  now my phone is froze with an emblem of iTunes and a USB end with an arrow showing.  can turn the phone off and on and emblem comes back. last time i restored my phone it erased my address book.  rather not do that.  any suggestions? i may be running low on storage space?

    Place the device in DFU mode (google it) and restore.

  • Lost my Address Book contacts after a security update?

    I am using OS X 10.4.7 and did a security update last night. Now I also have a Nokia E61 and since this morning I have lost all my contact in my address book on the Mac ( a powerbook). Since I didn't play around with the mac nor the nokia I am thinking that it all got lost in the security update.
    I checked my iSync logs and there it indicates that it deleted all contact from my phone right after I did the restart for the update...
    Can anybody help me get my contacts back?
    I do backups but since just got back from my vacation I didn't have the time yet ..
    Many thanks,
    Rolf

    To answer my own qq,
    Well I found some of my important contacts in the trash . They were under a folder named "Recovered files". There where a few named that way so you had "Recovered files #1", "Recovered files #2", till #6. In one of them I found my contacts again, well atleas the ones that I added over the hollidays .
    Hope this helps someone else aswell

  • Mum and I used to share same Apple ID. Now she has her own. But when i turn on iCloud on my phone. All her address book linked to mine. What should I do?

    I am so sorry, i am very new to this community. Mum and I used to share apple id. Also I created the iCloud with my apple id. Then i created my mum a new apple ID for her. However, her addressbook and phonebook still synced with my phone through iCloud. What should I do?

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    If you have correctly set up a separate iCloud for your mother, then your contacts should not be syncing with your mothers. Are you absolutely sure that they are syncing and not just the same contacts.

  • After updating to Firefox 3.6.9, when I click on a link in Outlook email, I get a message which says "General failure. The URL was: .... An error occurred in sending the command to the applicatio." and the link will not open. How can I fix this?

    I updated Firefox yesterday to 3.6.9. When I receive a URL link in an email within Outlook, I cannot open the link in Firefox. As I said in the question, when I click on the link, a Microsoft Office Outlook error message appears which states that a General failure has occurred in sending the command to the application (which is Firefox). I am using Office 2007 This did not occur prior to the upgrade of Firefox.

    See this lnk for a fix, it worked for me!

  • ICloud creating duplicates in my desktop iCal & Address book.

    Figured this is the best place to post.
    When I disconnect from iCloud I have most of my cards, but my account card is missing. Then whe I turn on iCloud there are two of my cards and many other clients. How do I sort this out. In previous years I used the merge duplicates and it murdered my data base.
    TIA
    Enio

    If they are all in On My Mac then this is not iCloud doing it, is there an iCloud account in Contacts or Calendars.
