Iphone and Outlook Help

Ok I have looked everywhere, I have my phone synced to outlook with imap. I get email on it but once i open the email on the phone or open outlook the email is gone from the phone. I noticed outlook made a new folder for my company and put an inbox under it. But all my emails are in the original outlook inbox under personal folders, does it have to do with the root path? Please any help would be huge. Thanks
Jake

I backed up everything and finally took the leap to migrate from mobileme to iCloud. With a few glitches all seems to be working except that iCloud did not grab the updated and current Contact list from MS Outlook 2010 and seems to have an outdated contact list with only half the number of contacts.
Can someone help me get iCloud to grab the correct contact list out of MS Outlook 2010 so that it can be distributed to my iPad and iPhone also? Thanks!

HT1692 Help--I need my iphone and Outlook Calendars to talk to each other.

After the last iOS update, my iphone and Outlook calendars are not communicating:
My iphone calendar sends to the gmail account associated with MS Outlook, but not to icloud--it does receive from iCloud.
Outlook does not to go to iCloud, or for that matter, to the gmail account that Outlook is associated with--nor does Outlook receive events from iCloud.
So, iCloud doesn't get stuff from iphone calendar, and after an aborted try at self-fixing, is no longer connected with Outlook at all.
I've tried to work through iSolutions, etc., but can't seem to follow, or match my circumstances, to what is provided. Can someone give me simple, step by step instructions on where my settings should be at all 3 points? I would be very grateful!

Problems with synching calendars between iPhone and Outlook 2007 on Windows

I recently purchased a copy of windows 7 ultimate 64. It was an English version, but since it is ultimate I downloaded and changed it to Danish - so far so good...
I have synch'ed between outlook and iPhone on a Vista platform without problems, but now on windows 7 when I sync - the result is, that on my iPhone the meetings, work schedules and birthdays I have in my calendar is shown a day too soon!!
I have checked that both iPhone and Outlook start the week on Mondays, so that is not an issue - I have updated my iPhone to the newest software with out any luck - so now I try and write here instead - hopefully someone can help me...
thanks in advance

yes they were set to the same timezone - which puzzled me a lot...
I lost a lot of sleep, but I can now say that I have solved the problem...
What I did was, that I un-installed microsoft office (desperate I know!) - then ran a sync with the iPhone choosing to overwrite the Calendar in the phone - as there was no calendar present - it deleted what was on the phone. Then I re-installed Microsoft office, by doing that, I didn't loose anything because the user files was still present including mail setting etc. - resynced the iPhone - and now it works...
Just can't figure out what went wrong in the first place...
thank you for your answer

Emails on iPhone and Outlook

I have a virgin email account and have set up my iphone to receive these emails. However I'm having problems getting these emails to go to both my iPhone and Outlook on my computer. Sometimes it works fine and I'll find the same email on both devices, however sometimes it will only make it to my iPhone and sometimes only to Outlook. The email is never deleted off the server whichever (or both) device it ends up on.
My settings are:
Host Name: mail.virgin.net
SMTP: smtp.virgin.net
SSL: On
Server Port: 25
Advanced
SSL: On
Delete From Server: Never
Server Port: 995
Does anyone know how I can ensure that my emails make it to Outlook even when they also make it to my iPhone?
Any help gratefully received. Thanks.

After syncing, lost almost all contacts (except 12) on iPhone and Outlook

I did a sync on Thursday and I lost almost all contacts (except 12 contacts) on both iPhone and Outlook. Only 6 of remaining 12 contacts were new entries since last syncing. So, some old contacts stays and most of got ereased. I tried to search for possible solutions with no luck. I got my iPhone in Asia to be able to have Chinese character input. I am traveling now and it looks like I dont' have a backup file of my outlook.
Is there a way to retrive the contact data from the iPhone Hard Drive?
Need help ASAP.

Not sure what happened here, but I'm not aware of an iTunes prompt to sync an iPhone that is connected. Each iPhone includes a preference setting to automatically sync with iTunes when connected - which I recommend turning off. This is selected under the Summary tab for your iPhone sync preferences. iTunes includes a preference setting to not automatically sync and iPod or iPhone when connected. This is a personal choice, but I prefer manually syncing, or syncing when I want to in case I want to make any changes before my iPhone is synced.
I assume your Father does not maintain a backup of his Address Book data on his Mac, or any other important data? The Address Book application includes a simple and quick backup Address Book option which is important to use when syncing any device, but is important regardless in case a problem arises with the Address Book database.
On your Father's Mac, with the Address Book application quit, go to Home > Library > Application Support > AddressBook.
Within the Address Book folder, move the AddressBook.data file to the Desktop.
Change the name of the AddressBook.data.previous to AddressBook.data or remove the .previous extension from the file name so it is AddressBook.data only.
Cross your fingers and launch the Address Book application. If the Address Book data is not restored, and your Father does not have a backup of his Address Book data, the data is lost.

Calendar times do not match between iphone and outlook

I have an iPhone 4S, at work I use a PC and Outlook. I have both my PC and my iPhone on the same time zone. If I set an appointment in either calendar the time gets switched in the other. For example: I set an appointment in my iphone calendar for 11am. One my outlook calendar it shows the same appointment at 10am. Both systems are set to the same time zone, what gives? How do I fix this?
Another thing I should add is I am in Saskatchewan Canada. We do not switch time for daylight savings in March an November. So when the time switched in November everthing works great, it is only between March and November whe this problem arrises. Saskatchewan is a setting in timezones for bothe the iphone and outlook so I don't think this should matter. Unless one of the companies does not know Saskatchewan does not change times.
Any suggestions?

Apple puts Saskatchewan into Central Standard Time, which isn't correct. Then when it syncs to Outlook, Outlook puts the appointment into the CST time zone, instead of the Saskatchewan -6 time zone. The problem is Apple's iCloud sending the wrong information to Outlook.
Need a fix for this please.

Synchronizing my contacts between iPhone and Outlook

I currently synchronize my calendars between my iPhone and Outlook via the USB connection between my computer and the phone. I tried to do the calendar synchronization through the iCloud, as that looked really slick, but I didn't like some of the side effects, so I went back to synchronizing directly between my computer and my phone. It seems like to synchronize the contacts, the only option is to use iCloud, but I don't know if I can do that only for the contacts and not have my calendar involved? Any suggestions on how I do this?

Receiving mail on both iphone and outlook

Setting up my mail accounts on iphone3 and when mail is being received on my iphone it does not appear in my outlook aswell and vice versa, how do I receive same mail on both iphone and outlook?

Set it up as IMAP or configure it so that, while using POP, it retains a copy of the message on the server so that it can be downloaded again on multiple clients.

Sync problems between iPhone and Outlook (MS Exchange)

Hi all, I have a problem with my iPhone. I have an MS Exchange e-mail account setup on it and whenever I get an e-mail it goes on both the phone and Outlook however when I delete something from Outlook it does not do the same on the iPhone. On the other hand if I delete something on the iPhone it does reflect on Outlook without problems. So its not that there is no sync, the problem seems to be one side only....
Any ideas?
Thanks a lot

i use outlook for my work email, but my personal email is in gmail. besides work email, i do not use outlook at all.
i get my work email on my iPhone, but i do not sync calendars and contacts as i have to use an imap connection for work, and this does not allow for calendar or contact syncing.
i have seen a gmail/outlook sync tool, but i am afraid i do not use it so i can not offer any help with it.

Can't open attachments in firefox. Ok in i.e and from iphone and outlook

When using firefox for email, I am now unable to open any attachments. It has happened during the last week, before this it was fine and I haven't changed any settings (that I am aware of).
I have tried all the usual reboot stuff and looked at as many settings as possible, but nothing jumps out.
The same email attachments open fine in outlook, from my iphone and in ie, but I prefer the firefox as I am used to using it for so long now. Also, old attachments that I have opened in the past will no longer open.
Never had any problem before with opening attachments. All programmes are affected - word, excel, pdf etc.
Thanks - Jacki

Hello,
The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information. <br>
'''Note''': ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions and some Preferences.''
*Open websites will not be saved in Firefox versions lower than 25.
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
Thank you.

Getting mail on iphone and outlook

I use Outlook 2003 and have an imap gmail account that I need to access from both my laptop and iphone. Right now, if I get mail on my iphone, it does not come to my laptop and visa versa. I don't want it to come to my phone once I have it in Outlook, but if I get something on the road on my phone, I still need it on the computer for my records.
I've read everything I can find and I seem to have the settings all done correctly, but the problem persists. Please help!

How did you create your Gmail account with the iPhone's Mail client?
If you used the Gmail account preset to create the account, the account is created as an IMAP account.
I don't want it to come to my phone once I have it in Outlook, but if I get something on the road on my phone, I still need it on the computer for my records.
Then you need to access the account as a POP account with Outlook and with the iPhone's Mail client. With Outlook, you need to remove messages from the server when downloaded by Outlook so the new messages downloaded by Outlook will not be downloaded by the iPhone, and quit Outlook when away from your computer or new messages automatically downloaded by Outlook will be removed from the server when downloaded and the messages will not be available for download with the iPhone's Mail client. With the account settings on your iPhone, you can select do not remove messages from the server when downloaded so any new messages downloaded by the iPhone's Mail client will be available for download with Outlook when returning to your computer and launching Outlook.
If you access the account as an IMAP account, this will not be possible, but any messages downloaded and read with Outlook will be available when accessing the account with the iPhone Mail's client but marked as read automatically, and vice versa since all server stored mailboxes with an IMAP account are kept synchronized with the server automatically with each email client used to access the account.

Duplicates IPhone and Outlook 2007

Yo!
I am continually getting duplicates between my IPhone 4 and Outlook 2007.
I delete the duplicate from Outlook and re-sync - still duplicated on phone after next sync.
I delete the duplicate from the IPhone - still get the duplication in Outlook after the next sync.
I am wondering if the way I make the entries into Outlook is causing the problem.
Here is how I enter data into my Outlook Contact list:
If it is a name of a person: I just enter the full name into the "Full Name" field: ex: John Smith
However, if it is a business or I want to manipulate the name so that it is organized alphabetically, I enter the name just into the "Company Name" so that the "File As" field will display and sort the name alphabetically. Ex:
If it is "John Smith Plumbing and Electrical", I enter this into JUST the "Company" field. I do NOT enter a name into the "Full Name" field.
After syncing using iTunes, going through my contact list, I will see a duplicate of the John Smith Plumbing and Electrical contact. One will my original, and the duplicated one will have John Smith Plumbing and Electrical in the "Full Name" field.
Hopefully I have described my situation clear enough.
Is there a known fix for this?
Thanks in advance

Go to contacts on your phone/ipad, click groups, make sure that the only checked contacts are icloud. That shoud do.

Synching Calendar between iPhone and Outlook 2007

When I make a calendar entry in Outlook 2007 on my PC, it automatically synchs with my iPhone through iCloud. But when I make a calendar entry in my iPhone, it does not show up in Outlook anymore. This just started about a month ago. Under settings, in iCloud, I do have Calendar "ON." I tried turning off Calendar in iCloud and then turning it back on - when I did that, the PC calendar that was showing there is now gone, and only the iCloud calendar is showing and it is checked.
Any ideas? Thanks!

yes they were set to the same timezone - which puzzled me a lot...
I lost a lot of sleep, but I can now say that I have solved the problem...
What I did was, that I un-installed microsoft office (desperate I know!) - then ran a sync with the iPhone choosing to overwrite the Calendar in the phone - as there was no calendar present - it deleted what was on the phone.
