Iphone contacts and photos is not syncing to iCloud

iphone contacts and photos is not syncing to iCloud

I also have this problem, just from the iPhone 5s which makes my life crazy, too.
The problem of having multiple devices doesn't seem to help, but the odd part is when everything I am doing is correct, it still doesn't sync like it used to do before iCloud, and when we had to USB wire connect the iPhone to the Laptop to make contacts sync.
Might I add that I am not using MAIL on my LAPTOP?
but ?Britty sounds like her issue is easier as gmail sometimes can create duplicates so you are in good if you are not having that problem or nightmare...
IF ANYONE ELSE can PLEASE ADD to this THREAD? I would be thankful
as there seems to be a TRENDING on iPhone 5s not syncing with other devices or backwards.....(I have added contacts to the iPhone 5s and they never get added to the iCloud or the iPad or the Addressbook or CONTACTS on the LAPTOP....
This should be working and I have checked the CONTACTS on the laptop GROUPS , iCloud, vs ALL ON MY MAC
it just isn't syncing and in some cases I am getting a WEB DAV error or CAL error...-1
what is that? iCloud will not sync all contacts?
something is crazy
but I want to remain at 10.8 MOUNTAIN LION and not upgrade to MAVERICKS......or use MAIL on my LAPTOP...just CONTACTS ONLY......

  • How to insure that contacts and calendar are NOT synced with ICloud?

    Hello,
    I do not understand, why it is not possible anymore to sync your contacts and calendar data between your mac book and your mobile devices using USB cable.
    I also heard that with Maverick and Itunes 11.1.2 you can not sync anything using USB anymore, is that true?
    Why is it not possible to let the customer decide how to sync their data? Why not leaving both options?
    In case it is true that with Maverick and Itunes 11.1.2 you are not able to sync using USB anymore, does anybody know a good app to sync your photos and address data between your computer and mobile devices?
    How can I insure that my contacts and calendar data are NOT automatically synced with ICloud?
    Yesterday I synced some Photos from my macbook to my IPad and wondered why I had the photos twice. I realized that my IPad had ICloud enabled, after disabling ICloud one picture folder (Photostream) was gone. What do do to avoid that my MacBook is sending Photos to ICloud?
    However, when I opened ICloud today, I did not find photos, but I found some address data from my MacBook in the Cloud.
    I do not want to have my contacts and calendar data anywhere else on a server.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks Hark

    Connect your phone to your computer using the USB power cable that you charge your phone with.
    Launch iTunes, it will go thru the normal sync back up progress bar thing at the top, let it finish.
    Then
    double  click on the phone in the left side bar then click INFO at the top of that pane, it will allow you select what you want to sync (contacts,calendar,etc) make your selections and click apply, then click sync. There buttons along the top for different functions (Movies, Apps, etc) just make sure that you do not have anything checked (like your whole music library) that will not fit on the phone.

  • Contacts and Photos will not sync

    I downloaded the new software for my 3G and all my pictures and half of my contacts were erased. How can i rediscover them? I did not delete them they are just not showing up.

    me again everyone, I've managed to find my contacts on my iPhone. When I look under the contacts app it just says "no contacts", but if I look at the contacts tab via Phone they all appear, weird bug.
    Still problems with my photos though

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Check that you don't have more than one account in your contacts, such as 'iCloud' and 'On My Phone'.

  • Contacts on PC do not sync with icloud/ipad/iphone

    I have a PC (Windows 7) and Outlook 2010. My contacts do not update on my ipad/iphone/icloud.com when I make an entry or changes in Outlook, and they don't update in Outlook when I make changes or entries on my devices/icloud.  However the devices/icloud are syncing with one another.  I need the contacts on my PC to be part of the sync but it won't work.  And photos only randomly sync up to my PC.  What's the secret here?????  Thank you!!

    This step is not clear:
    "Open a secure website to see if you can access ports 80 and 443. Outlook requires access to port 443 to push and fetch updates to and from the iCloud Contacts servers."
    The link takes me to an Apple page but which has nothing to do with ports.  And there is nothing to explain what it is I am looking for, how to look for it, and how to change it if needed.
    Also, this step:
    "Open the iCloud Control Panel and make sure that you're signed in to the same iCloud account that you're using on your other supported devices."
    iCloud automatically set up a "[email protected]...." account for me so I see that one plus my original email used to open my Apple account.  And the apple products show my settings under both identities.
    Make sure the iCloud Outlook Add-in is active within Outlook
    This add-in is disabled because it doesn't allow Outlook to function properly.
    Thanks!

  • Windows 7 Photo Stream not syncing after iCloud 3.0

    HELP!  I am a relatively new to the IPhone community.  My husband bought me one for Christmas 2013.  I have the IPhone 5s .  Like many users, I want to be able to back up the pictures I take and or receive on my phone to my computer.  I have a Dell laptop running on Windows 7.  I downloaded iCloud 3.0 and have the checked off the box next to Photos.  I also have Photos turned on in the ICloud settings on my phone.  I experienced this problem back in April, where my photos were not syncing to my computer. I contacted Apple Support, and he ran several tests.  I took a couple of pictures, and they started syncing.  While I was not able to get all of my photos, I had the majority of them and I figured the problem was solved and would continue to sync from there on out.
    I just checked this past weekend and saw none of my recent photos were there.  I proceeded to google the subject, tried deleting the ICloud control panel and redownloaded it, and then forced a backup on my phone.  It only backed up 87 of the 517 photos I have in my Photo Stream.  I tried these trouble shooting options below but once again, only have 90 of the 517 photos I have:
    1. Open Task Manager (ctrl, alt and delete) and end ApplePhotoStream.exe and AppltPhotoStreamDownloader.exe if they’re running.
    2. Go to your Users folder and navigate to the following path: C:\Users\\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MediaStream\
    3. Delete everything in that folder.
    These files are a local cache of what has already been synced but it appears to get stuck so deleting these files forces it to resync again from scratch.
    4. Open iCloud Control Panel and make sure “Photos” are checked.
    The above steps force re-downloading of images after any stuck point. It should make sure that your newer images are downloaded.
    My husband has an IPhone as well, and his photos sync no problem to his IPad.  I am assuming this works better since they are both Apple Products.  Can someone please help me resolve this issue as I would like to be able to get my photos on my computer so I can delete some of them off my phone?

    If the missing photos were added to photo stream more than 30 days ago they are no longer in iCloud (although they may still be on your your phone).  In that case, to get the older photos to stream to your computer you can add them to a shared stream on your phone (see http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mmc0cd7e99).  (Note: when creating the shared stream, you don't have to invite any subscribers.  As the owner of the shared stream you are automatically subscribed to it; just skip that step.)  Another option is to save them to the camera roll on the phone and import them to your computer using your usb cable, as explained here: iOS: Import personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer.

  • Photo's not syncing with iCloud photo library from and to iPhone

    Photo synchronization stopped working from and to my iPhone 6.
    Currently new photo's taken on my phone aren't uploaded to the iCloud photo library and new photo's uploaded from my mac to the iCloud library aren't showing up on my iphone. I still have enough space available on iCloud.
    It worked fine until two weeks ago.
    Any suggestions how this issue can be resolved?
    Thanks,
    Koen

    My process was turning on iCloud Photo Library on my imac only at first and uploaded my 70,000 pics which took about 2 weeks (did much of it at night). After it was done I turned it on my three devices at the same time (iphone 6, iPhone 6+ and iPad 2). The download to the devices (eg thumbnails) took about another week and it seemed to work largely fine until recently. It doesn't however really work on my iPad 2, but it's so old I'm not too surprised.
    My only issue now (hopefully) is the response time on the 6+ which seems quite slow. Good luck and I would try to turn it on and see what happens. But be patient, at first it takes quite some time.

  • Contacts and calendar will not sync.. music play lists will

    hello all,
    i have a 4gb iphone that i bought in july. since updating to 1.1.3 i am unable to sync contacts and calendar. i have tried turning phone off and on, ejecting, unplugging, repluggin, and even a full restore, still am unable to sync my contacts and calendar. anyone haveing a similar problem? any help would greatly appreciated, thank you for your time

    I, too, have this problem since updating my 8GB iPhone to 1.1.3. I primarily sync my iPhone with my Tiger-running Powerbook G4, where my calendars, contacts, and music files are.However, I followed your direction of resetting iSync, and it did not work. I, then, plugged my iPhone into my Tiger-running MacBook Pro and it worked (and I did not reset iSync). Maybe this problem is due to Intel vs. PowerPC?
    We need to alert Apple. I have to go get this figured out for me... I will be visiting the Genius Bar this weekend because I can't be syncing my contacts, and such, on my MacBook Pro 24/7.

  • Mail, contacts and calendars will not sync cuz some stuff quited...

    Hey all! I posted this question in the iTunes section, but did not get any response, so I shall ask it here and see if I get a response. Whenever I sync my iPhone, stuff like MDCrashReporterTool and AppleMobileSync will "quit unexpectedly". Thus, my calendars, mail and contacts will not sync. I've tried stuff from downloading the Mac OS X 10.5.6 combo updater and installed it to reinstalling iTunes 8.0.2, but to no avail. Does anybody here have an answer or require more information? TIA!

    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.

  • IPhone 4s and iPad is not syncing with iCal

    I have iCloud enabled and iPhone, iPad, and Mac Mini.  My iPhone and iPad calendars are synced perfectly.  My Mac Mini does not show the same calendar events as iPhone and iPad.  When I create an event on iPad or iPhone it will not show in iCal.  If I create an event in iCal it will show on iPhone and iPad.  I  turned off iCloud on Mac Mini and turned it on again and that didn't solve the problem.  Not sure if this is contributing to the problem but I have (12) "untitled" calendars on my Mac Mini iCal.  I would ultimately like to clean up iCal and use my iPhone calendar as the master calendar to do so. 
    Active Calendars:
    - Google
    - Work (Exchange)
    - iPad
    - iPhone
    - iCal
    Thank you in advance for your assistance!

I rest my phone I made a new account with iCloud, I updated iTunes, I uninstalled and re-installed iTunes, and nothing will work.  My iTunes no longer acknowledes the fact that my devices have been plugged in.  I've never had this problem before.  I'm looking at evey guide on how to try to fix the problem, and everything that I have tried will not work becasue I don't have the opptions that it says I have.  Like the "summary" button.  I have never seen that button before and I can't find anything similar to it.
    I can't even begin to say how frusterating this is.  All I want is to sync my devices with my computer and I can't do it and I dont know why. 
    Please help me.
    Thank You,
