IPhone 4 contacts do not sync with Mobile Me

For some reason there is a small piece of syncing that is not working. My contacts and calender events sync from my iMac to MobileMe to my iPhone perfectly. However, when I enter contacts in my iPhone they do not sync to MobileMe or the iMac. The Calender events work, but not the contacts. I have searched many other posts, but I cannot seem to find how to get thie fixed. Any thoughts? Thanks

Hey..
Hopefully this support article will help you. The problem is clearly between your iPhone and MobileMe/Mac...check the settings of your handset using this document:
MobileMe Setup - iPhone & iPod Touch
Hopefully this post has been helpful in solving the issue.
Please let me know how you get on.
Best of luck..

  • IPhone Contacts & Calendars not syncing with mobileme

    Apologies if there is a solution to this posted already, I can't find it despite extensive searching!
    My iPhone Calendars & Contacts do not sync with MobileMe. I can't find a way of exporting or saving the data on the iPhone and importing it into my desktop iCal & Contacts apps.
    I have looked at all troubleshooting help I can find, and all is suggested is deleting/ resetting the phone & syncing from MobileMe. However, if I do this I will lose lots of contacts & calendar entries.
    The data will NOT sync from my phone despite following all available instructions. My desktop apps are all set to sync with MobileMe & this works fine, it's just the iPhone data will not transfer to MobileMe.
    Please help!!

    Since you are syncing your iPhone with your Mac, it should be syncing your contacts and calendars with your Mac as well (and your bookmarks if you have it set up to sync). You should have Mobile Me setup on your Mac to at least sync your Calendars and Contacts, which should be updating your Mobile Me account. If you want to check to make sure that all of your contacts that are on your iPhone are on your Mac, simply open up the Contacts App. Once you check this, add your Mobile Me account to your iPhone and let it sync your contacts and calendars, it will delete all the contacts and calendars that are currently on your iPhone, but the same data is on your Mac anyways. Once Mobile Me syncs with your iPhone you won't have to worry about it anymore.
    If you are having problems where you already setup your Mobile Me account on your iPhone and it's not syncing properly, deleted it, restart your iPhone, then add it again.
    Does this help?

  • Lightroom desktop not syncing with mobile

    Hi,
    I'm having a similar problem to others here, where Lightroom desktop is not syncing with mobile. My iPhone and iPad are syncing with each other OK - photos I take on the phone are showing up on the iPad, and a collection I created on the iPad has synced to the phone. If I go to my desktop PC and go Help > View Your Synced Collections on the Web I can see both collections. But neither collection is downloading to my PC, and the collections I've marked for sync on my PC are not uploading to my devices or the web.
    I had previously (a couple of months ago) synced a collection from the desktop to the iPad but changes to it had stopped syncing. I've tried deleting all the data through the desktop preferences (which did remove the existing collections), and I've tried deleting the sync.lrdata folder.
    Cheers
    Lee

    Thanks for the tip, but it didn't work.
    I moved a few images in the collections that were synced = nothing has changed.
    I've deleted the new collection that I was still trying to sync (with still the "Syincing 30 photos over the identity plate... it seems to be stuck to 30!). Remember, that new collection was not showing in Lr Mobile, even though 89 photos were supposed to be sync...
    I've deleted - again - the sync.lrdata file = didn't work.
    I "Clear Cache" in the Lr Mobile = didn't work
    I deleted the Lr Mobile app on my iPad = didn't work either. I had guessed so since it was still the same in Adobe Lightroom.
    I've stopped in Lr Desktop all the sync in collections that were synced. So, in theory, there is no more images being synced. I've even deleted (again!) the sync.lrdata file. Deleted (again) the Lr Mobile app. And guess what?... Nah... it didn't work!
    I do see in the Lr Desktop, in the left panel in the Library Module : "All synced Photographs : 0". But I still see 3 collections with all the photos (even the deleted ones from previous days) in the Lr Mobile.
    It seems that the photos are "stuck" that way in Abode cloud and cannot be changed one way or the other. Cannot delete images nor collection. Cannot add new collections. Cannot move images.
    Now, I am short of ideas what to do next. Delete my Adobe account? :-)))

  • IPhone camera roll does not sync with iPhoto

    Around 1/2 of my pictures in my camera roll folder on my iPhone 5S are missing in iPhoto. For example: I have photos until April 2014 that are sync'ed and then a gap until October 2014. How come iPhoto does not import all my photos as a standard? I cannot be related to dates as there are a mix of old and new.
    Thanks!

    Make sure that you are using a apple charger or transferring charger. Then unplug the charger from both things plug it back in. If that does not work then unplug again and restart.iPhone camera roll does not sync with iPhoto

  • Desktop ical does not sync with mobile me or iphone

    entries in mobile me calendar sync with desktop and iphone wirelessly
    entries in iphone calendar sync with desktop and mobile me as long as I select entourage in the iphone
    but ical entries on desktop do not sync with iphone or mobile me

    Finally figured it out. Assuming you have the latest software and trouble syncing iphone ical, desktop ical and mobile me ical:
    1.Inputing an entry in either one of the tree does not automatically insure syncing across. You have to remember to tell the device how to share the info:
    -Mobile me entry (you are inputing data in your mobile me account when you are away from your desktop and phone, like using someone else's computer). After you make an ical entry make sure you check "entourage" and the entry will be synced across devices.
    Desktop computer entry. After you enter the data make sure you check the entourage option on the me.com
    -iphone: after you input the data check the entourage on the mobile me. Also uncheck all the .cal.com
    2. This takes care of all the sync problems for ical and I suspect contacts. Don't go to draconian measures like re-installs and all the stuff I read here without first trying this.
    3. Finally, familiarize yourself with the dashboard of iTune when you plug in your phone. There are a few tabs in there like "summary" and "info" that allow you to control data.
    In conclusion, I really wish Apple would have covered this on this site or on various manuals. I feel mobile me is not held to the same high standards that Apple requires and I've been an Apple fanatic and advocate since 1983.

  • Outlook will not sync with mobile me

    hi,
    I am running Windows Vista, upgraded to the latest itunes and trying to get my outlook contacts and calendars to sync with mobile me. I have selected the correct options in Mobile Me on my Vista machine and the sync confirms that is was successful however, nothing has appeared on Mobile Me web.
    Interesting, is if I add contacts to mobile me via the web, the page refreshes and it deletes anything new I have added.
    I did get the common error dotmacsyncclient stopped working but it appears to be running ok but nothing is getting sync'd. I did select to sync information on my PC to Mobile Me as opposed to Mobile me to my PC but still nothing is happening.
    Is this a know bug or what is the solution as currently I have lost every contact on my iPhone because of this problem.

    On your iPhone, go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
    Select your MobileMe account.
    Turn Calendars off for over the air syncing.
    A warning message will be provided indicating this will delete all calendars and calendar events from your iPhone. You should also be provided a prompt to save the data locally on your iPhone. If so, save this data locally.
    Follow this by turning Calendars back on for over the air syncing. You should be provided a merge prompt which you want to select.
    Test if this resolves it.

  • Palm contacts do not sync with address book

    Contact data from my Palm Tungsten does not sync with Address Book. I am running the latest Palm OS and Desktop with iSync 1.5 and Panther OS 10.3.9. Calendar is syncing correctly. According to the log, iSync thinks that the Address Book is also working but no data gets transferred in either directon. Any suggestions? Thanks.

    Hi,
    i also used iSync for a long time with my Tungsten. BUT(!) iSync is very poor! I learned to know MissingSync and this is a really cool App! Now i have categories in my calender after syncing with my Titanium, i have all adresses and there are a lot of more cool features. Look here:

  • MacBook Pro's Contacts will not sync with iPhone?

    I have recently installed the IOS 5 on to my iPhone but for some reason it is not letting me sync my contacts. It wiped all my contacts off my phone. I tried to sync them back to it when I got home and nothing happens. There are still no contacts there. I have even selected the tick box on the info tab of the device screen in iTunes to replace all contact information on my iPhone with the contacts form my address book on my Mac. Still that does nothing. I just have no contacts.
    Can anyone please help as obviously I need my contacts.
    Thanks

    I too just had this same problem and it took me forever to figure it out. On my iPhone in Contacts under Groups, there's All Contacts, All from My Mac and then my Gmail account. When synching my iPhone 4 in iTunes under Info, I previously only had all contacts selected, once I selected sync Google contacts and added my info, everything synched perfectly.
    I think what happened is if your default Contacts view on your iPhone is All Contacts, then you see all contacts as it says, but each new contact you add goes under either All from my Mac or Gmail contacts - it just depends what your default account is, which is set in Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars on the iPhone.
    Hope this helps.

  • Entries on desktop iCal do not sync with mobile devices.

    I am running OSX 10.7.3 on my 2.8 GHz Intel Core i7 iMac. iPhone running 5.1.1
    Starting recently, entries I make on my desktop iCal do not sync thru the Cloud to the browser iCloud Calendar or my iPhone Calendar or my IPad Calendar.
    My email, my Contacts sync just fine.
    An iCal entry on my iPhone will sync with all mobile devices and the Cloud browser but do not sync to the iMac. In fact, all transactions from any mobile device and browser based Cloud all sync just fine between devices and iMac.  All but the iCal transactions.  They do not sync to the iMac or from the iMac
    Suggestions, please!

    First check that all your settings are correct, that calendar syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
    Make sure the calendars you are using are in your 'iCloud' account and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud account (you can do this by clicking/tapping the calendar button in the top left corner of the application ), non iCloud calendars will not sync.
    If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your calendars are in the iCloud account, you might try unchecking calendar syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling calendar syncing settings.

  • IPhone 4s (iOS 7) not syncing with iTunes 11.1.3 for Mac

    A few weeks ago, my iPhone ceased to sync with my computer. When I plug it into my computer, it charges, but does not appear in iTunes. I have searched the communities here and some folks suggest deleting and reinstalling iTunes, but my computer says OS X cannot do this. I updated all of my phone and iTunes software to the latest versions, but no luck. Does anyone have any suggestions so that iTunes will recognize my iPhone again?  It all worked fine from the time I bought this computer in March until roughly October.
