IPhone 3gs won't sync my exchange server email

I just got the 16gb 3gs. I synced it with my outlook contacts and calendar, which went flawlessly. My email, on the other hand, didn't sync. My exchange email account doesn't even show up as an option to sync. Obviously the phone is talking to the server, because it got my contacts and calendars.
Is there a setting on Outlook to allow my account to show up in iTunes?
We're using Exhange 2003 (SP2) and Outlook 2003

IPhone 3Gs won't sync contacts through iTunes after 4.0.2 upgrade

I updated to OS 4.0.2 today, and since then my iPhone 3Gs will not sync contacts. All contacts have now disappeared from my phone. The group headings still show, but Contacts is empty. I performed a factory reset and restored my phone, but still no contacts. Even after repeated syncs.
I am syncing with Address Book through iTunes. I performed a one way sync each time from laptop to phone to avoid the phone overwriting my address book with zero data. I also backed up my contacts before attempting the sync, so the data still exists in Address Book, it simply won't appear in the phone.
I also tried to reset sync history - first by using iSync 'reset sync history' button, but that does not work these days as iSync does not see my iPhone. Then I tried looking for the reset sync history' button that Apple Support says can be found as follows:
"Open iTunes. From the Edit menu, choose Preferences. Click the Devices tab. Click the Reset Sync History button."
But - that button is not there!
Any ideas anyone?

Did you try to set up your phone without using the latest backup? If you can, your other backup might be damaged and not usable anymore.

IPhone won't sync with Exchange Server

When I set up an account with my exchange server it's able to authenticate but it is unable to sync mail or calendars. When I try it gives me an error which says "Cannot Get Mail. The connection to the server has failed."
The log says

I don't believe this is a generic problem with the server because other users with iOS 4.0.1 and iPhone 4's are able to use the server. When one of those users who successfully uses it with his account configured his iPhone to access my account he received the same error. I am able to use my iPhone to access exchange accounts on other servers. Therefore I suspect there is a problem with just my account on just this server when it is accessed from any iPhone.
Has anyone seen anything like this before? Is there anyplace I can look up "DAErrorDomain error 111" to get more information on what may be failing?

I have the same problem - authenticates but will not sync. My 3gs used to work.

IPhone 3Gs won't sync with my Exchange 2003 account. How can it be done??

I'm a school teacher for a charter school. I check my emails at home from:
http://mail.starsmiddleschool.org/exchange/
When I arrive at that page, I type in my username and password.
It is an Exchange 2003 server.
I just got a new IPhone 3Gs with AT&T. (I also have a Macbook 2,1 laptop with Snow Leopard updated and installed).
I have looked online for days and days for suggestions, but nothing's worked. My administration isn't too helpful on this matter.
I can go to the website listed above and check my emails from school, but I cannot set-up the account on my IPhone.
I have tried entering my information over and over again....PLEASE HELP!
Thank you for taking time to read this and offer any helpful advice!!!

Okay...I checked with my school administration about the Exchange Account, and it is set-up for mobile devices to receive their emails via cell phones.
Still, it keeps "Failing" at connecting.
I need to type in my:
---> I click add account---> then I click on Microsoft Exchange---> then begin filling out the information as should below:
Email: [email protected]
Domain: (do i type in ".org" here????)
Username: my username
Password: my password
Description: School Emails
Server: (do i type "mail.starsmiddleschool.org/exchange" ????)
Thanks for your help!!!

Iphone 3Gs won't sync music, photo's etc after updating to iOS 5.1. Need help!

I recently updated my iOS on my Iphone 3Gs and it won't sync any of my music or photo's. I'm extremely frustrated and annoyed that I can't put any of my music or photo's onto my Iphone as the new iOS (5.1) won't sync.
I've done everything I can think of. I've done everything people have said that would work for them from the internet and nothing has worked. I need help!

This should be helpful.

Merging contact groups on Iphone 3GS and sharing this with exchange server

I`ve got one for you
I`ve got a recently purchased Iphone, that I`ve just set up.
Everything works fine.
BUT, I first uploaded my contact from my previous Nokia from a private mail-account that I had used for back up for my old phone.
Then I connected my Iphone to my outlook-mail on my exchange server at work.
This means that I have got 2 groups in my contact list on my Iphone, which is ok.
Yesterday I cleaned up my contact list on my phone in the "all contact" section on my phone. Deleting double registered contact cards and copying mail-adress or phone number from one of the double registered contact card to the other ( as one was from my previous phone and one was from my mail. )
So now my contact list in "all contacts" are perfect.
The question is, can I transfer this perfect contact list over to my outlook-account on the exchange server so this, which will be my only back up log, is the same as on my phone.
The contacts which was already taken from the outlook-account has been updated as they should, but I had quite a few contact from my phone ( approximately 480 ) and I did not take into account when I "cleaned up" yesterday if I was deleting the contact card from my old phone of the contact card from the exchange server.
Hopefully one of you has got a solution to my problem

No - the iPhone keeps Exchange server contacts separate from 'local' contacts stored on the phone (synced via iTunes, imported from a SIM card, etc.).

IPhone 3GS won't sync or be seen by iTunes

Hi All,
I recently moved my iTunes library from my PC to Network drive.
During the move due to my stupidity I lost my playlists.
I have 2 x iPhone 3Gs and a 160GB iPod classic.
The iPod classic can sync with iTunes no problem.
When I try to sync either of my iPhones nothing happens.
I am using the same cable as my iPod and it starts charging the phone.
My PC recognises the phone as it asks me if I want to few photo's.
However iTunes does not recognise the phone.
I am not sure what to do as nothing has changed with the exception of where the music is located.
Does anytone have any suggestions?
I have been trying to get this sorted for the last 5 days with no luck

Hello taylasaurus,
I would be concerned too if my iPhone was not recognized by iTunes on my Mac. I found an article with steps you can take when you encounter an issue like this.
I recommend following the steps in this article:

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

My iPhone contacts won't sync to exchange

Hi guys,
I am trying to sync my iPhone contacts to Google contacts through exchange so that I can unify my contacts.
I followed these directions:
http://support.google.com/a/users/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=138740
But I don't see my contacts in Google contacts.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

I had a situation where some contacts on my iPhone either did not appear on my Mac or had only some of the information. I discovered that these contacts were linked on the iPhone to accounts other than iCloud - in my case the Exchange contacts at work. Once the missing information was copied to the iCloud linked contact, the details appeared on my Mac. To have a look, open the contact on your iPhone and scroll to the very bottom. There you will see all the Linked Contacts. Make sure one of these is iCloud and that it contains all the information you want to show on your Mac.

After 3.0 Upgrade Calendar won't sync with Exchange server

I was running 3.0 beta and everything was working fine. I then upgraded to 3.0 GA and my calendar no longer syncs over WiFi with our corporate Exchange server. Both mail and contacts are working fine. I did a number of things to try to resolve the issue, the last was to erase all content and settings. Nothing has worked. Anybody have any ideas.
Steve

Update: I got it working... In 2.0, I had my calendar options set up for sync-ing the last 2-weeks. After going to 3.0, my calendar went blank but when I changed the sync parameter to 'All Events', everything started to work again.
Please let me know if you have the same failure and if this trick worked for you too.

IPhone 3Gs won't sync/upload to iPhoto

I upgraded from the original iPhone to the 3Gs and now iPhoto won't import photos from it. It still works with the original iPhone. When I plug in the 3Gs, iTunes comes up but not iPhoto. If I go to iPhoto to do it manually, it can't find the 3Gs. Shutting down the compute, turning off the iPhone and switching the usb port don't wok. everyone's advice to click on the mythical "synch to iPhoto" button won't work because that button doesn't seem to be available on my computer.
PLEASE help me! I have almost 30 photos I would like to get off my iPhone!
thank you

On windows you can upload when the phone is connected for sync by using the autoplay window that pops up and select "import photos and videos", if you can't get the upload in a similar way on your Macbook dust off your old windows machine then transfer. Make sure you have iTunes on the PC. I used Windows Live Photo Gallery but you probably can use any windows viewer then save.
If that isn't available I suggest you email to self or upload video to Youtube, Long way round but at leaset can use the photos until a fix is deemed necessary by the apple Gods.

IPhone 3GS won't sync with HP Pavilion dv6-1259dx with Windows 7

I have had an iPhone for 2 months now and still haven't been able to sync it to my computer. I went to the Apple store and the worker there told me to just keep updating iTunes and eventually there will be an update that fixes it. That has yet to happen. When I attempt to sync my iPhone a window appears. "iTunes has stopped working, Windows is checking for a solution to the problem..." and then "A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available." Everytime, it is very frustrating, can someone please try to help me.

When I attempt to sync my iPhone a window appears. "iTunes has stopped working, Windows is checking for a solution to the problem..."
Let's have a look at your Problem reports to see if they show up any more information about the errors.
Head into your Problem Reports and Solutions Control Panel (Or the Windows 7 equivalent ... the "Action Center"?) and open your problem history. Look for iTunes problem reports that occurred at about the same time as the iTunes errors, open them up and have a look through them.
Do they all seem to be saying pretty much the same thing? If so, paste the contents of a typical report into a reply here so we can have a look.

IPhone 3GS cannot be synced. An unknown error occurred (-39).

My iPhone 3GS won't sync. I get an error message in Step 5 of 5 when it's trying to delete photos. The message says "The iPhone "iPhone 3GS" cannot be synced. An unknown error occurred (-39)."
How do I fix this? Is there anyone out there who can please help?

Try restarting your phone and computer, use a different USB cord, use a different usb port on your computer. Try these to see if any of them help. Good luck!
