Iphone and outlook sync

anyone,
i currently have 3 e-mail accounts (aol, godaddy server e-mail, company e-mail activesync) i was told that Mobile Me features would allow me to sync, migrate e-mail folder into my cloud. Was i misinformed?

The problem is neither of those links help with wireless syncing or active sync. We are having the same issue. We have two users in particular who were both on Outlook 2003 and Windows XP SP3. They are both now on Outlook 2007 and Windows 7 and the issue is still occurring. We are running MS Exchange 2003. Re-creating their account on the iPhone temporarily fixes it (until a new calendar entry), but it inevitably comes back.

IPhone and Outlook sync, lost contacts.

Hi, i recently did a clean sync of my iphone contacts with outlook since then i added 15 contacts or so. Today i synced my iphone again and my contacts have disappeared from both outlook and my iphone apart from the 15 or so i added since my first sync. I have tried to restore my iphone from a back up but it did not solve the problem. Was wondering if someone could help me get my contacts back.
Thanks in advance, Sami.

How does one do a two way contacts sync between an iphone and outlook? Most of the community has answered as this to be "always so", but it does not work! Changes made on outlook get done in my iPhone, but it does not work the other way around!

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.

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

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.

What happens if I make a picture album on my ipad or iPhone and then sync with my Mac? Will it add a new album to iPhoto on my Mac? Also, what will happen if I add pictures on my ipad to existing albums that I made in iPhoto on my Mac?

So what I have gleemed from this thread - is that Apple will not help me if an iPad mini is dropped and the screen breaks. I would have lived without the insurance if I could have simply bought a new screen and then had it replaced by Apple.
On something so fragile I would have expected a piece of glass to be a replacement part. But I am glad I made this post because now I no for sure if I break the screen there is no way to have it fixed by Apple and keep it in Warranty.
Yup, kind of like anything else you accidentally break that is more cost effective to replace than to repair. Keep that iPad away from the toddler

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?

Your phone connected, iTunes running, under the "Apps" tab, you've selected this app to install on your phone, correct? Hit the "Apply/Sync" button, lower right on the Apps tab, what happens?

I recently got a replacement iPhone and when syncing it I found I lost all my downloaded music in my iPod, can I get it back?

I recently got a replacement iPhone and when syncing it I found I lost all my downloaded music in my iPod, can I get it back?

I lost all content on my ipod after connecting it to a new computer. I had brought my iTunes library over from the old computer and had the most recent iTunes installed, but iTunes didn't see the ipod. Long & short of it is I worked with Apple support, finally was able to restore the ipod and everything looked like it was syncing normally. When I ejected the ipod there was no content on it at all. After trying several times unsuccessfully to get it reloaded and another session with Apple support, they suggested the ipod was damaged. Since it was working fine up till that point I doubted that. I then thought it might be the iTunes library that was corrupt so I checked that. (It's fine.) So I found an ipod repair place (authorized Apple dealer) and when I called them they found that it appears to be an issue with iTunes software itself and pretty much said I have to wait for an update to fix the issue. So I did everything you're supposed to do & it messed up my ipod. Now iTunes doesn't recognize thje ipod again!

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.

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.
