ICloud on PC has imported/exported massive duplicates in Outlook Calendar and Contacts?

I am a PC Office 07 user:  Why has iCloud deleted (upon install) all of my current OUTLOOK data (specifically Calendar & Contacts), and then apparently imported copies from multiple old backup files (groups) --- creating massive duplicates (and in some cases 4 or 5 copies) of the old information?  If you can help me regain or show the current data only, and ignore the older groups of backup, etc., that would be extremely helpful.
Before trying to utilize iCloud, everything was succint and fine.  Now, I have huge amounts of repetitive and outdated data on my phone and laptop PC.

Same problem here. Just set up icloud to sync calenders to Ouloook 2010 and I now have multiple calenders including a conflicts calendar which just seems to duplicate everything, but the crucial 'default' calendar is now empty. Tried various things copying calendars around but no joy and can't see any documentation in Outlook or iCloud

  • Since installing iCloud, my iPhone 3GS no longer syncs with my Outlook Calendar and Outlook Contacts.  I don't know what else to try, short of resetting the iPhone and completely reloading as a new device.  Any ideas, anyone?

    It's good to know.  The Apple instructions for loading iCloud on a PC just seem to have either overlooked or hidden this limit.  The larger problem is that it partially works:  partially and erratically.  So clean-up is great fun.

  • Duplicate entries in calendar and contacts

    I have many duplicate entries in my calendar and my contacts.  Deleting each one on my Z10 is very time consuming.  Is there a way to do this more efficiently, such as viewing the calendar and the contacts as a file on my computer, where editing would be much easier?

    Ok you can try one thing first, less invasive to see if it clears one set of contacts.
    Open your contacts
    Swipe down from the top edge > Settings.
    Scroll down and turn off each of the various contact accounts.
    tap BACK at lower left and now view your contacts.
    All that should be left are the "local" contacts. Do you see any, and are they the contacts duplicated?
    If so, then close all that and return to your main homescreen.
    To clear the local calendar or contact database on the BlackBerry 10 smartphone, complete the following steps:
    Swipe down from the top bezel on the home screen, and select Settings.
    Select Accounts.
    Tap the action menu button (3 vertical dots) on the bottom-right. 
    Select Clear Local Contacts or Clear Local Calendar.
    Now, view your contacts app again. Make sure the ALL TAB is displayed at lower left.
    Scroll through and check for duplicates.

  • Should you get a separate iCloud account for each family member if you are sharing calendars and contacts?

    My husband got his first iPhone. We are now an Apple Family. We share contacts and calendar with our phones and computers. Is one iCloud account ok or should he get his own account? If he gets his own account, would it conflict with mine?

    3 accounts.
    1 for your you
    1 for your husband
    1 for shared purchases (the original if it already has purchases, as purchased content is signed with the Apple ID that it was purchased with, so it cannot be transferred to a different account).
    The individual account are for Messages, FaceTime, iCloud backup, bookmarks, etc...
    Settings -> iCloud
    Settings -> Mail (if you use your Apple ID for you mail)
    Settings -> Messages
    Settings -> FaceTime
    Settings -> Game Center
    The shared account is for purchases
    Settings -> iTunes & App Store
    Settings -> Music -> Home Sharing
    Settings -> Video -> Home Sharing

    You can run the 10.8.5 combo and 10.8.5 supplemental installers, instead of going through the frequently wonky App Store:
    OS X Mountain Lion Update v10.8.5 (Combo)

  • HT3748 since upgrading to Mountain Lion, my Mac Mail no longer works well w/exchange email; so, I have had to switch back to outlook. Now, how can I use outlook for mac's calendar and contacts with icloud?

    Since uprgading to Mountain Lion, my mac mail no longer works with my exchange email properly. I finally gave up and moved back to outlook for mac, but now my new issue is using outlook calendar and contacts with icloud; possible?

    Sorry but I'm really not to sure what I have. I'm not good with knowing my computer model. All I know is that its a MacBook running with Leopard. I got my computer last year so I suppose its fairly new. Is there a place on my computer where I can check to see what it is (sorry to be so dumb with my own mac)
    And everything else works fine. I love Safari. It's just my mail that doesn't work. Here's the message that pop up several times.
    "The MobileMe IMAP server “mail.mac.com” rejected the password for user “akcastaldo”
    Please re-enter your password, or cancel."
    The only problem here is, even though I enter my password it doesn't do anything. It makes that message go away for about 3-5 mins. After that it pops right back up. And I can't even go into my preference and change my email password. So I don't know what to do.

    I use Touchdown from Nitodesk for my work email. Its a little pricey, but it works with your companys OWA (Outlook Web Access) portal. They do have a 30 day trial that they insist that you try to make sure it will work for you before you shell out any money for the app. It syncs the Calendar, notes, tasks, emails etc.
    It has a discovery feature that it will figure out what it needs to configure. All you need to provide is how you log into OWA (Username/password, website) and the program does the rest. It works very well for me.
    No I am not employed by Nitrodesk. I only use the program. There was no need to ask my IT people to set anything up for me.
    Give it a try, it might work as well for you too.
     One day I will have to give this app a try, I am just use to configuring my device to sync without a 3rd party app but I have heard that Touchdown seems to be the best thing going to setup a corp sync process..

  • How to use Icloud calendar and contacts with calendar server

    Hi
    I have a small network setup using a mountain lion server and a couple of mac mini's running snow leopard. In addition I have several iphones and ipads attached to the network.
    I want to syn calendars and contacts accross all devices but dont want to use icloud for the private stuff. I have the basics working but can not get the general icloud contacts and appointments to sync on the mac mini's. Is there a way to sync this data or do I have to duplicate each appointment , one to icloud the other to the server address book and calendar.
    I know that there is a way to sync snow leopard with icloud but I do not want all data on I could as some of it is sensative, so require to keep it internal.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    cheers

    Thanks for the help
    Not sure I have explained myself properly, I already have the server set up and have a local calendar and address book working.
    The issue I am having is how to integrate it with the icloud address book and appointments.
    for example,
    I have an appointment at 10.30 with a client, I need to have this show up on all mobile devices and the local network mini's. As it stands I have to put it in twice, once in the icloud calendar and once in the local network calendar. I would like to be able just to add it once and it show on all clients.

    How Do I Get Rid Of The “Other” Data Stored On My iPad Or iPhone?
    http://tinyurl.com/85w6xwn
    With an iOS device, the “Other” space in iTunes is used to store things like documents, settings, caches, and a few other important items. If you sync lots of documents to apps like GoodReader, DropCopy, or anything else that reads external files, your storage use can skyrocket. With iOS 5/6/7, you can see exactly which applications are taking up the most space. Just head to Settings > General > Usage, and tap the button labeled Show All Apps. The storage section will show you the app and how much storage space it is taking up. Tap on the app name to get a description of the additional storage space being used by the app’s documents and data. You can remove the storage-hogging application and all of its data directly from this screen, or manually remove the data by opening the app. Some applications, especially those designed by Apple, will allow you to remove stored data by swiping from left to right on the item to reveal a Delete button.

    Hoping for some help with a very frustrating issue!
    I have been syncing calendar and contacts on my iPhone 5 and Outlook 2007 using iCloud  2.1.3 (my PC is running Vista). All was well until the events I entered on the phone were showing up in Outlook, but not the other way around. I’ve tried the usual recommended steps: deselecting calendar and contacts in the iCloud control panel and then re-selecting, signing out of the panel and back in, and repairing the Outlook installation in control panel.  I even uninstalled iCloud on the PC and downloaded it again (same version). 
    The furthest I’ve gotten is step 2 (and once, step 3) of 7 while performing “Outlook Setup For iCloud.” At that point I get, “Your setup couldn’t be started because of an unexpected error.”  After the first attempt at all this, all my calendar events disappeared from Outlook, although they are still in iCloud calendar and on my phone.
    Sound familiar?  Any ideas on how to solve this iCloud/Outlook issue?  Thanks much in advance!
