ICloud is not syncing my contacts or calendar from my computer to IPhone or Ipad

Why isn't ICloud automatically syncing between my devices (MacBook, IPhone and IPad)?

First check that contact and calendar syncing is enabled on each device as well as your MacBook.
If syncing is turned on on each device, try turning it off, restarting and turning syncing back on.
Finally check that your contacts and calendars are in the iCloud account in each application and not in the On My Mac account, only iCloud accounts will sync with iCloud.

ICloud will not sync my contacts or calendar in Mac Office 2011. ICloud does however sync to my PC at work running Microsoft office 2010 and also to my IPad and IPhone. Does anyone know how to fix this?

Welcome to the Apple community.
Unfortunately Office for Mac does not support the correct protocols to work with iCloud.

My iPad and iPhone have the same syncing calendar but my Windows 7 PC with iCloud does not sync/show the same calendar...please help!

iCloud will not sycn a calendar from an external source. In order to use iCloud to sync it, you would have to move it to iCloud and stop using Google. I know how to do that on a Mac, but I'm not sure how to do it on a PC. If you're using Outlook, I suspect you export it as an .ics file to your desktop, then import it to the iCloud account in Outlook. I'm sure you could use Google to find the specific steps.
However, there's really no reason not to just use Google to sync your calendar across your devices. Instead, just continue to use Goole calendar on all your devices and they should stay in sync. Take a look at this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C0Jj0KFgbYI.

TS1347 I had to get a new hard drive on my laptop PC. Now I am unable to sync my contacts and calendar from my iphone to the outlook software on my PC. Although they are backed up on icloud, I really want the information on my computer.

I cannot figure out how to sync my contacts and calendar from my iphone with my windows PC. The message during the itunes sync process is that information is being backed up to both the cloud and my PC. However the Outlook software remains blank. What can I do??

I was just on the line with Apple Tech support. First of all, I learned that when you link contacts to iCloud, it moves all your contacts to another/new address book...look for aother address books and you will see it. But I found the new address book dies weird things and changes the "Display Names" format. Evidently (per Apple support tech) there is no way to avoid this problem...so I just delinked the iCloud from my contacts. The contacts stayed in the iCloud address book...so I exported them to a CSV (comma separated value) file and saved it on my desktop and then imported that list into my original contacts folder. Now everything is back the way it was...being able to use my contact address book the way I did before. I was surprised that they never considered or realized this problem...but then the tech guy admitted that they really don't have A LOT of experience using Windows PC's.

My iPhone 4s is not syncing the contacts and calendar to iCloud.

My iPhone is not syncing its contacts and calander to iCloud once its entered on the iPhone itself. It has no problem syncing information entered through iCloud though. Am I doing something wrong?

On the iPhone tap Settings > iCloud
Switch off both Contacts and Calendars then switch back on then reset the device.
Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home button down at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

ITunes 6.0.1.3 not syncing Outlook Contacts or Calendar with ipod Nano 4GB

I have Outlook 2003 installed and setup with a Microsoft Exchange Server. I have about 200 contacts currently stored in it.
I recently purchased a ipod nano 4gb with hopes of syncing my contacts and calendar with that and being able to throw away my old Palm. The ipod nano works great for syncing music but I can't get it to sync either the calendar or contacts from outlook.
I check the box for syncing contacts and choose Microsoft Outlook from the drop down. Then iTunes only gives me the option of syncing all contacts (which is fine with me) and I click Okay. Then I choose update from the ipod nano right click menu. The status bar says updating contacts but does not import any of my contact to my ipod. Also, except for the 1st time, the Permission Window asking for access to Outlook has not popped up again. When it did that first time, I was told that there was an error and itunes could not copy contacts over. Since then there have been no errors from iTunes.
I have tried all the steps in the apple online help docs (unchecking boxes, restarting, re-checking, etc..) but can't find a solution. I don't want to have to manually Save As each calendar item and contact. Frankly, I'd rather just return the device.
Can anyone help me?
thanks in advance.

Possible. It is just odd that the day before the update to 9.x.x (I forgot the release), it worked great. Following that upgrade, the sync died. I could reinstall the old release (per instructions from Apple Tech Support) and it would sync. However, not upgrading your iTunes means not upgrading your OS...and that is not an option. However, I think I will have XP reistalled on my machine...and then put a fresh install on iTunes...and see what happens.

I have just bought a MacBook but can't seem to sync my Contacts or Calendar from my iPhone 3GS to my iTunes, I have tried everything, even the icloud doesn't seem to do it.

I have just bought a MacBook but can't seem to sync my Contacts or Calendar to the Address Book or iCal via iTunes, I have tried everything including watching support videos and putting this into a search engine. Even icloud doesn't seem to be doing it.

If you are trying to sync via iCloud, make sure your MacBook is running OSX Lion 10.7.7, and that you have set up your iPhone as described here: http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/ and you MacBook as described here: http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/mac.htm (including turning On Contacts and Calendars as shown in step 3). If you're syncing via iCloud don't check to sync in iTunes too (on the Info tab in iTunes) or you may end up with duplicate data.

ICloud is not syncing a contact created on my MBA to my iPad/iPhone

I created a five new contacts today on my MBA, within the iCloud account under an existing address group (Coworkers). One of the five has synced correctly to both my iPhone and my iPad. The other four did not sync correctly to either device; they can be found under the All Contacts group, but not within the specific group I assigned them to (Coworkers). I have disabled iCloud syncing of contacts on both devices then reenabled after restarting both devices and my MBA, which did not change anything. I also tried moving the contacts out of the Coworkers group into another group, after which they appeared on my devices; then, when I moved them back to the Coworkers group, they still did not show up. I'm not sure what's going on that's preventing just those four contacts from syncing properly.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
This user tip might help you understand how accounts work with Address Book.
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.

My iPad is not syncing properly with my calendar on my computer. Everything is a day off on the IPad. Any suggestions?

My iPad calendar is not syncing properly with my computer. Everything in the iPad Calendar is one day off....any suggestions?

Susan,
Also note that the calender can be set to preserve a time zone by going to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars and turning ON Time Zone Support - but then your flight times will be correct for the local time zone...found that one while on travel and the calender was showing a flight time that was an hour earlier than I thought it was. I had not turned on Time Zone support and it moved the time I had entered at home to the time of the local zone.
Convenient as long as you pay attention

How can I sync my contacts and calendars from my iPhone?

I know it seems like it should be a simple thing to do but I just got my iPad today and was trying to get my contacts and calendar that I have on my iPhone over to the iPad. I then realized that none of my contacts and calendars that I have created on my phone are on my computer... So I went to iTunes>Devices>Info and checked to sync my calendars and contacts and also made sure the replaceinfo my my iphone with content on this computer was UNchecked... but nothing has shown up in my iCal or Contacts on the computer... I am unsure of what to do!

I don't mean to sound silly, but after you checked to sync the info, did you do a sync?
you do have the option to sync between devices via iCloud. however you may wish to back up the info if you can because iCloud ate all my contacts.
Another more tedious way is to e-mail your contacts, one at a time, and open the e-mail on your iPad and computer and save it.

Iphone does not sync OUTLOOK CONTACT NOR CALENDAR EVENTS (XP)

I was able to sync photos- music but no contacts-Calendar events from OUTLOOK 2003. The fact that my outlook PST file is not located in the default Outlook directory could be the problem but I am not sure. Anyone out there having the same issue??? Please let me know. thank you. Phil

Have no problems here with Vista and Outlook 2003. PST is not saved in default location, syncs without a hitch.
Seems problems are hit or miss. I have had a flawless experience while my brother who bought one at the same time is having a nightmare of a time with his install. From iTunes 7.3 crashing to activation nightmares.

Exchange 2010 Email not Syncing, but Contacts and Calendar do???

Anyone have any feedback on this? I have tried deleting and readding my Exchange 2010 account several times and same result.
No emails are displaying at all. However, all of my contacts are appearing in the contacts app and so are calendar entries. Also, when I go into the settings and choose which folders to have push email, I see a list of all of my exchange folders, so I know it is seeing the server.
Any idea why the emails are not appearing? I have tried all combinations of different settings and can't get them to appear.
Thanks

Are either of you part of protected groups in active directory/exchange? Such as the built ins. i.e Domain Admin/Account Operator etc?

Outlook 2007 mail not syncing. Contacts and calendar working fine.

I upgraded to 7.7.1 and it did not help either. I imported the email acct into my iPhone, and Outlook is working fine. I cannot figure out how to get Outlook mail sync'd to the phone. I appreciate any assistance.
Thank you.
Carroll

Sorry for adding to this, but I am still confused a bit.
For business I send a ton of emails from my iPhone, and they aren't syncing in my OUTLOOK 2007 sent items folder. I am not very tech savvy when it comes to email formats. My work email address is a mail.****.com format.
So, if it isn't IMAP, (If I understand you correctly), Outlook will never sync sent messages that were sent from my iPhone?
It's a shame if that is true, I just assumed it would have native support for such things - from a business perspective it only makes sense. I have read through literally 100 topics on Outlook issues but can't find a clear and concise answer. I do have a mobile ME account thinking that would solve the issue. (I am assuming it only solves the issue if you are sending the email from a mobile ME account?)
Thanks, if anyone can answer, been banging my head against this for a week now =)
