ICloud Contacts Sync with Outlook 2007

I have an iPhone5 and an iPad2. I have been using iCloud to sync Contacts between these two devices for a few days without any problems.
Today I installed iCloud Control Panel on my PC (running Windows 7 and Outlook 2007) to let me keep Contacts in sync between my iPhone5, iPad2 and Outlook.
Everything seems to be working correctly and Contacts are in sync between all three devices. However, in Outlook I see a message at the bottom of the window which says "Synchronising Hierarchy" - there is a rotating icon to the right of the message. This message has been displayed for the last 3 hours.
Does this indicate some aspect of sync is still in progress or is there a problem?
Thanks in anticipation of your help.

On his phone, sign in Settings>iCloud and enable Mail so that he can have his own email address. Then add your account in Settings>Mail, Contacts & Calendars and enable Contacts and Calendars. They will then appear on his phone alongside any syncing he has set up. This will keep your emails separate, or you can add Mail as well so that you can both access that if you want. You can add his account in the same way on your phone and enable any data types you want to sync.

    Tell iCloud what to sync.
    Have you installed the iCloud control panel on the computer?  Without that, nothing will sync from the computer to iCloud.

  • Ovi Suite 2 and 3 contact sync with Outlook 2007 i...

    Hi all,
    New user of an e71.
    I have Windows 7 32 bit
    Outlook 2007
    I have tried both versions of Ovi Suite (2 and 3), and the contact sync is absolutely terrible.  I have no confidence that I am getting the proper info at either place.  It either munges the contact at the phone, or in Outlook.
    A simple fix for this would be to follow RIM's lead, and allow OVI to choose (before the sync), which side wins when in conflict.  (or stop the sync on each conflict,and allow us to choose the one which is correct)
    Anyhow, after fighting OVI for over two weeks, I uninstalled OVI and tried PC Suite 7 for the first time, and it synced my contacts and all other notes, tasks, and calendar items like magic.
    Love the GUI on OVI Suite, but I can't keep fighting this sync issue.

  • How can I set up iCloud sync with Outlook 2007 using Hotmail account?

    Hi,
    I installed iCloud PC control panel. I tried to sync my contacts and calendars from Outlook (2007) to the cloud but I gets this message: "Add an e-mail account to Outlook Before setting up iCloud". I have an Hotmail account synced up into my Outlook via Outlook Connector. Can iCloud sync with Hotmail accounts?
    What should I do to get my calendars and contacts synchronize to the cloud. Does Outlook 2007 can be synced by the cloud too?
    How can I set up iCloud sync with Outlook 2007 using Hotmail account?

    I found a way to fix this, it did the trick for me:
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3109623
    All you have to do is include a new e-mail account [email protected] (set it as a default) on Outlook with the options that are showed in the thread I linked and you should have the calendars and tasks syncronised. It works perfectly with ipod touch, ipad and Outlook 2010 on windows 7.

  • My blackberry tour does not sync my contacts anymore with outlook 2007. I do not get an error message. Help!!

    My blackberry tour does not sync my contacts anymore with outlook 2007. I do not get an error message. Help!!

    Norton is probably the issue. It can really screw things up, that is one reason I never use it. See if you can temporarily disable it and then try the sync and see if that works.
    On a Mac, there is a way to run a program that repairs permissions for the user, not a Windows thing.

    I would love to do this as well. All I need is my calendar appts from outlook. Right now I am using google calendar sync, but I would like to move to the cloud and away from google. I find it hard to believe there isn't an option to do this.

  • My iphone no longer syncs with outlook 2007

    My iphone suddenly no longer syncs with Outlook 2007.  I have checked the Outlook add-ins list.  I can find no solutions.  Apple phone support did not help, genius bar did nto help.  Any suggestions ??

    Is it everything that no longer syncs, or is it just one of the things, i.e. just calendar, contacts, notes? Many times as mentioned in the earlier post, it can be caused by a corrupt .pst file. Run the scanpst.exe application that resides in the Office folder. That will run a repair on the .pst file. Go into iTunes and reset the sync history and then try the sync again. If that doesn't help, it is possible there is a corrupt appointment in the calendar. That can cause a problem with syncing.
    Try those couple of hints and see if that helps. Come back if it doesn't and let us know some more specifics.

  • Syncing with Outlook 2007 Calendar

    Hi All,
    I guess that there have been loads of topics raised against this subject. If anyone can help ....
    iPhone 3GS (4.1 loaded) with iTunes 10 - attempting to sync with Outlook 2007 calendar on Windows XP. Getting the following error :com.apple.Outlook.client.exe has generated errors and will be closed by Windows.
    No problems (so far) with Contacts.
    Help please !

    Just got my first iPhone a few days ago. I use it to sync to Outlook 2007. The first few syncs went fine, but now changes in either the Outlook Calendar or the Calendar App are not synced to the other. The sync completes without problem (or success).
    I guess I'm not the only one having this problem, which is worrying. Even more worrying is the fact that no one seems to be able to resolve this. If it's broken, tell us, and let us know when it's going to be fixed. The fact that we're being ignored is extremely poor...
    There's also no documentation I can find about where to look for logs for possible errors, what else might be happening.

  • Fix for iTunes 9.1 sync with Outlook 2007

    Like many others, iTunes 9.1 broke syncing my iPhone 3G calendar and contacts with my Outlook 2007 (Windows 7). Here’s what worked for me:
    1. Uninstall all Apple software, using the instructions in this tech note:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
    2. Download iTunes 9.0.3.15 and install it. (Search the Web for it, no thanks to Apple.)
    3. Restore from backup week-old copies of the iTunes library files “iTunes Library.itl” and “iTunes Music Library.xml”, since the latest versions were written by version 9.1 and not readable 9.0.3.15.
    4. Restore things I had changed in my iTunes in the last week.
    Things that didn’t work:
    a. The steps in this Apple tech note:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1692
    including resetting sync history and disabling third-party Outlook add-ins.
    b. Restoring the iPhone to factory settings and then syncing.
    c. Help > Run Diagnostics > iPhone / iTouch Sync Test.

    You are exactly right. iTtunes 9.1 breaks the sync with Outlook 2007. Tried all the fixes and even got a new phone from the Apple Store after being "helped" by customer support. It's not your phone, it's the update. iTtunes 9.0 works fine. The customer support people will tell you this is the first they have heard of it. Delete 9.1, search web for 9.0, and install. I could not do system restore since I installed and uninstalled about 10 different things troubleshooting. I just deleted iTunes library from program files (hope my iPod will put music back) to get around the library file problem. Now works. Hey, maybe we should work for Apple since we know more than their tech support people. Can't believe they are not aware of issue between the iPhone and Outlook.

  • IPhone will no longer sync with Outlook 2007

    I've had my iPhone for about 16 months - the sync with Outlook 2007 worked great until about 3 months ago (I'm guessing previous update to the one that happened today.) No changes to the laptop I synch with - Vista.
    In iTunes under the "Info" tab for Calendars I see the message "No supported calendar application can be found."
    Normal sync for music works and photo uploading works fine.
    Help!
    Thanks!

  • How to Sync iphone 5 contacts/calendar with Outlook 2007

    I used to have an iphone 3gs and upgraded to a 5 recently. Since then I can't sync outlook contacts/calendar like I used to.
    All I want to do is sync outlook with the iphone so that I have the same data on my Windows7 PC as on the iPhone. I used to just hit sync in itunes and presto it would sync both ways. i.e new phone entries would be copied to outlook and new outlook enteries copied to the iphone.
    Now in itunes "info". I  only see an option that sync's to the cloud only. I don't want to sync to the cloud because the old way was better for me.
    Besides the cloud doesn't seem to work. The phone information gets uploaded to the cloud but the outlook information doesn't get updated? When I open up the cloud in Win7 using icloud I can see all the contacts on my phone but how do I get them to sync with Outlook and vice versa?
    I've read so much information on the subject I'm blue in the face but have not found a solution.
    Your help would be appreciated, Thank You.

    If you have [accidentally] enabled iCloud sync on your iPhone, note that you first need to turn that off in order to be able to sync again via iTunes instead. iCloud sync and iTunes sync when it comes to contacts and calendars, are cannot be run simultaneously. Settings > iCloud > toggle the switches to OFF
    You can alternatively read this for another offline method of syncing iphone contacts to outlook without needing to switch off your iCloud sync in first place.

    What is syncing between them ? If calendars, contacts, safari favourites then are you using the same iCloud account on both devices and have them enabled in Settings > iCloud on both ?
    If apps, music, and/or ibooks that you buy on one device are automatically downloading on the other device then do you have automatic downloads enabled for them in Settings > iTunes & App Store on your phone/iPad ?

  • How can I get iCloud to sync with Outlook 2011 calendars??

    Recently got a new MBA11 and use an iPhone and rely heavily on Outlook. All I want to do is be able to sync my calendars and contacts across devices. When I used to be on Windows I could simply do this with Google Calendars and Google sync.
    Outlook 2011 isn't or doesn't support syncing with google (not sure who's fault this is).
    I thought iCloud would fix this however iCloud creates new calendars in iCal that won't sync with Outlook.
    Does anyone know a work around?
    Personally I would have thought this kind of thing would be simple, easy and a necessary function whether it be on google, apple or microsofts part!!

    Microsoft have not made Outlook for Mac compatible with iCloud since they haven't bothered to include support for the industry standard CalDAV and CardDAV protocols iCloud uses.
    See: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2648915
    Apple cannot do anything to rectify this, as they don't make Microsoft Office. It is in Microsoft's hands.
    It wasn't necessary to buy Office for Mac to sync with iCloud. All Macs come with all the applications required for syncing with iCloud for free.
    Use Apple's Mail, Address Book and iCal.
