IPad contacts and iCloud

Hi there
In iCloud I have 1207 contacts, which are mirrored on my iPad if I show only iCloud contacts. However, if I select show only "On my iPad" contacts I have a total of 1220, and if I choose to show all contacts I have a total of 1232 contacts. I assume I have created a number of contacts on my iPad, but is there an easy way to see only the contacts that aren't in iCloud?
Mitch

Hi David
That could be the reason, or I might have added some records to iPad contacts rather than iCloud. But what I'd like to know is how do I see only the ones that are just in "On my iPad" I think there may not be a way.
Thanks for your help
Mitch

Duplicated contact when I synced with gmail contact and iCloud. How can I do?

Duplicated contact when I synced with gmail contact and iCloud. How can I do?

On your iOS device tap Settings > iCloud. Turn Contacts off.
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.
Now tap Settings > iCloud. Turn Contacts back on.

I have a problem with mi iPad 3 and iCloud.

I have a problem with my iPad 3 and iCloud.
First. When i try to turn on the automatico downloads of apps and music on my ipad ican't. I put on the buttons but they automaticly turn into off.
Second. I have an macbook with iWork and mi iPad has iWork too but i can use iCloud because the documents that i create in the iPad doen't go online.
I did a little research and i think the troubles are because apple didn't associate mi ipad with my apple id, i had retored mi ipad a lot of times and it doen's fix the problem.
What do i can do?
I'm sorry but i'm learning english, so i'm sorry if you have a hard time trying to understand.
Thank you

Hi Omar1510,
If resetting your iPad allows it to charge, but only temporarily, you may want to make sure that you have your data backed up and try restoring the device (you may want to test the charging before reloading your data). You may find the following article helpful:

How do I get iPad contacts in iCloud to synch with desktop mac?

I have the latest iPad Air and an iMac with Mavericks. I notice that when I update an address in Contacts on the iPad that it does not sync with contacts on my iMac. Yes, I have the iCloud turned on for contacts. Does anybody know how to fix it?
Thanks.

Contacts and iCloud question(s)-

1) I have TWO iCloud accounts – one with a user “me.com” from my MM migration and a gmail.com user name from when I set up iCloud originally. My iMac is connected to both accounts but is showing that the me.com address is my “primary” iCloud account. I can log in to iCloud via the web on both accounts. Is there any way to get rid of one of them? I can see this becoming a big problem later and believe that this may be part of my other problem…
2) I have a new iPhone with all my contacts from my old iPhone. I deleted the contacts on my iMac in the hopes that I can transfer/sync from my iPhone to my iMac. When I deleted my contacts from my iMac it deleted all the contacts in iCloud (I know, I know...). All the suggestions where you go through iTunes and turn off the auto sync and manually sync the contacts in the hopes that the contacts are ‘merged’ has not worked. All I want to do is get the contacts from my phone onto my iMac and or iCloud so my contacts can propagate to the other devices – is there an easy way of doing this or am I just waiting for my empty address book in iCloud to wipe out my iPhone contacts?
Thanks in advance!

Update...
1) Second account abandoned and all devices pointing to 'main' iCloud account.
2) Turned off iCloud sync on iPhone and iPad - turned off iPhone and iPad (they have the same contact list roughly) - turned on iPhone - turned on iCloud sync of contacts - hit "Merge" - success. Contacts are now in iCloud and on iMac as well as all of my other devices ~ **whew**

Difficulty keeping Google Contacts and iCloud in sync

I have an iPhone, an iPad, and a Gmail account. I'd like to keep my contacts consistent across all of them, but I'm finding this to be very difficult.
I followed the instructions on here which seemed to work for editing linked contacts. But there is a problem with this approach: when using my iphone, I can only add contacts on one of the two accounts (either gmail or icloud) but not both at the same time. If I'm in "all contacts" and click the add contact button, it will only add a contact in the account designated as "default account" in the iOS contact settings.
Is there a better way to keep all contacts synced?

Since you are using Google, you might consider not trying to add iCloud in the mix, and just sync your Google contacts to your iDevices. There are many web pages which will walk you through how to setup your Google account on your iPhone or iPad as if it were an Exchange account. Going that route, you can then select to sync your contacts over the air between Google and your mobile device. I used that for about a year, then I made the full switch to iCloud.I've debated about going back, but I haven't gotten that desperate yet.

IPad contacts and syncing

Hi, I recently changed to outlook.com e-mail.
I notice now, when I sync, my iPad that under "contacts" the information - not the contacts - but the information is displayed twice as each contact is linked with "outlook.com" and "from the iPad" so it's picking up all information within each individual contact twice.
I have never added any contacts via the iPad so all my contacts are syned from my outlook.com contacts - so, where are the "from the iPad" contacts coming from? How can I prevent this duplication of information?
Any help is appreciated and thank you.

I assume that you have synced with Outlook before and it has stopped working. If you've never connected with Outlook before, take a look here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1418 . If that did not help try chosing Windows Contacts to sync. Does that work (contacts show up in Contacts folder on your PC)?

HT4910 Mixed Contacts and iCloud - Help!

Help! My husband and I updated our phones and now our contacts are mixed. Not sure I'm liking this iCloud. Can anyone help? Support talks about duplicates, but not mixing. TY!

First, you two should have different IDs for icloud if you currently don't. If one of you turned off icloud syncing of contacts while having the device connected to the other's icloud account, then you probably were told that this would delete the data on the device and would you like to merge the icloud contacts with those currently on the device (which may have included the other set of contacts). If you said yes, then the two sets of contacts were merged. If you both now have your own IDs set for icloud, then go through the contacts and delete those you don't want. Once they are merged (mixed), there's no easy way to clean up the mess.

Facebook contacts and icloud issue

Let me get these specs out first, 5s with 8.1.1. Ive contacted apple and since its not their app I understand so Im reaching out to the community for help. I have my icloud contacts on my phone but with facebook they are supposed to be linked together including profile pics. Had this on my android and its a fun feature I enjoy. Now my problem is this, they dont sync like they are supposed to. Each contact has that persons fb profile in the contact but nothing more. When I show all my fb contacts on my phone profile pics from users that I dont have saved with phone contact info, etc..that info shows up including pictures, but icloud contact info it just shows the grey box with initals. Cant merge them either from Icloud. Hope this made sense the way I wrote it. Thanks.

iCloud is only supposed to sync contacts in iCloud. It's not supposed to sync Yahoo, Facebook and Hotmail. Those are separate services which have their own sync functions you setup independently.

Contact and iCloud merged everyone's phone!? Help

just upgraded both my 4 and daughters 4s to the cloud, now her contacts are my contact and vise versa is there a way to keep them separate, she already deleted by a, b and c!! help

Welcome to the Apple community.
Unfortunately you cannot unmerge your data, you will have to separate it manually once you have created and logged into your own iCloud accounts for each user. It is using the same iCloud account that has caused your data to become merged.

How can I sync my Ipad contacts and calendars with my Imac? Can I go back to previous OS?

The main use of our Imac for my OH has been spoilt with the new operating system. He is getting a message "moving calendars to serveraccount" and it is taking hours to do. He used to sync easily by cable.

iTunes 11 for Mac: Sync contacts, calendars, and other info with iPod, iPhone, or iPad . If you use OS X Mavericks v.10.9 or later, your contacts, calendars, and other info are updated on your computers and iOS devices via iCloud. For more information, see iCloud Help at icloud.com.
Instead of reverting to the previous OS X, use iCloud > Learn how to set up iCloud on all your devices.
