IPhone contacts, calendar etc

My wife received a new iPhone for Christmas, which makes us a two iPhone family now. How can I set up separate contacts and calendars in iTunes for my wife's new phone.
Thank you

The first time you enable over the air syncing for contacts and calendar events with a MobileMe account on your iPhone, all contacts and calendar events on your iPhone will be deleted and replaced with your MobileMe online contacts and calendar events or merged. After the initial transfer or merge, contacts and calendar events on your iPhone will be kept synchronized with your MobileMe online contacts and calendar events, which in turn will be kept synchronized with the Address Book and iCal on your Mac.

One Apple ID, two iPhones, same iCloud. How do I get rid of this without losing contacts, calendars etc?

Hi there, hope someone can help.
My mum upgraded about 18 months ago to an iphone 5 and to set it up we used my Apple ID as it was linked to my dads bank card. Had absolutely no problems with this, everything has maintained separate.
However when my mum decided to update to ios7 (and as she is a novice has not backed her phone up since upgrading) At first it appeared that when she updated she had lost all her contacts, calendars etc but this was restored through iCloud.
Now our phones appear completely linked. Eg when I receive a FaceTime call it goes to my mums phone as well.
So is there any way of splitting our iCloud account without having to lose all our data? Especially as my mum has months worth of business meetings. To make it worse we currently live the other side of the country from each other, so going to the Genius Bar seems rather pointless!

If have separate iCloud accounts and want to keep your all your iCloud data separate, you can create separate user accounts for each of you, then sign into your individual iCloud account within your user account.
If you want to just add both iCloud calendars on your Mac, you can sign into one iCloud account in System Preferences>iCloud, then add the second account in System Preferences>Internet Accounts>iCloud and only check Calendars with this second account.

HT204150 icloud will not open any applicatons on pc. Contact, calendar etc.

icloud will not open any applications on pc. contact, calendar, etc.

I can use icloud.com in IE10 but the odd thing is that I believe iCloud in not compliant with IE10 and needs to run in Compatibility mode. But for some reason IE10 see's it as compliant. You can go into the Compatibility mode through Compatibility view settings and manually addin icloud.com. As for icloud in my opinion its really forgot about the rest of the world that does not use a Mac, iPhone or iPad. I cannot get the settings to work with icloud with any Android device, or using Chrome browser even though selecting display desktop site gets you a slightly broken icloud.com on Chrome browser in Android. Although many things dont work right. Same goes for IE10 as I have expieienced with crating a email message. It appears as though the backspace after the first line of a message does not work and I could not reposition cursor either. I am so glad I don't have to use icloud for much because I doubt I could deal with it as it is now. I guess another option is to try Chrome on your PC or Firefox?
Chrome should work as it is a WebKit based browser as is Safari. If iCloud works with Safari it should work with Chrome. But anymore their is no guarantee's.

OK, I THINK I HAVE FOUND THE FIX TO RESTORE CONTACTS, CALENDAR ETC

Try this.......takes about 2 mins
1. In itunes, top left click edit
2. when it opens click preference
3. when it opens click devices
4. this shows all your back ups
5. select the back up you want.
6. close that window
7. go to your iphone symbol on left and side and click to open
8. click restore from back up and hopefully it will work.
it says it will only work for contacts calendar etc and not change firmware.
I cannot try this as my phone is newer than my back up....different serial etc.
but if someone trys this and it works, please post that it works.

I used this information and correctly restored my contacts to my iPhone.
I was wondering if you happen to have any solutions, or what would you personally do in this situation:
After installing new software onto my iPhone, applications are visible in iTunes, I have selected the Applications to sync, and after the sync is finished, the applications are not actually on the iPhone. I have tried several times, which resulted in losing all of my applications from phone. I have troubleshooted and the most useful solution was to do with the restrictions of the App Store, although this is not the case for my scenario.
If you can find a possible solution could you please reply, or even if you cant assist, your help would be much appreciated.
Thanks, Jo.

Transfer iPhone contacts & calendars to brand new outlook 2007

Someone gave me an iPhone 3GS as a gift, I pressed the reset button and used outlook 2007 & itunes to sync my contacts & calendars.
Everything on my iPhone is fine.
My contacts & calendars in Outlook 2007 were accidentally in wrong orders by importing a backup file in pst format(Outlook Format).
For future synchronization ,I am afraid that my iPhone contacts & calendars will be in wrong orders due to the changes in Outlook 2007.
Can I transfer my iPhone contacts & calendars to a brand new outlook 2007 (without any data & resetting my outlook 2007)?
If not,any other solutions?
The main reason of this discussion is to make my Outlook contacts & calendars in correct orders and my iPhone contacts & calendars will not be affected.
Hopefully I have a backup .pst file with correct data on my harddisk.
Hope you guys can help.
Thank you so much!

The Synchronization dons’ not affect the order of how information’s are displayed between outlook and iPhone IOS. It only affects the content of your contacts and calendars information’s.
However, if you want to synchronize to a brand new outlook (this mean new Mail profile), you should create a new mail profile to use with outlook. Always make a backup of your iPhone and outlook before you modify any settings.
To create a new profile, go to Mail setting in the Control Panel or Execute control mlcfg32.cpl from C:\Programs Files\Microsoft Office\OfficeXX from the Command Prompt to access Mail directly.
From here you can display the main profile which iTunes using to synchronize your information’s (Show Profiles… Button). This one called generally outlook, it is created automatically as you execute your outlook for the first time.
Then you have to create a new one using ADD button, as you finish choose Always use this profile then drop down the menu to select the new created profile. Apply the new setting and restart your outlook.
Now you suppose to have the new profile of outlook, this let you synchronize your information with nonfactual content.
You can go back to the old profile by choosing it as the default one from Mail setting. Be careful not to synchronize with iTunes when the default profile is set to the old one.
Remark: in the Mail setting “mlcfg32.cpl “ if you choose the following option (Prompt for a profile to be used) then every time when you open outlook it will prompt you to select the profile that you need to work within, the problem that when iTunes want to synchronize your content it can’t select arbitrary on of theses profiles and this will dysfunction, so it is preferred that you select (Always use this profile) option.

Wow!
I'm not going to be of much use regarding answers but I sure am going to watching this post like a hawk for any replies. My package is a slightly diluted version of this and I do find the BBtalk and data limits hard to make the most of as well.
If nothing else this totally highlights how complicated BT have managed to make their packages.
A cynic would assume that they are trying to catch us out at every step and for us to either be overspending or not really getting the moneys worth.

Import/export of contacts, calendar etc.

Hi,
I am in the process of transferring my data from my old Nokia to my new BB9900. I hope that the current version of the Desktop Software is something like version -1, because I consider it totally inadequate. I would expect that this software provides means to export/import contact and other data. This would allow to edit/update these data using more comfortable tools of my Mac instead of typing in any changes in my BB. However, nothing like this is available.
Furthermore, when backing up contact, calendar etc. is is rather nontransparent what's going on. The program seems to ignore the selection "calendar" or anything else and simply saves everything to my Mac. And this - see above - in a proprietary format which does not allow further use of these data.
Yes, this message addresses someone responsible @ rim. Simply for the fact that the site www.blackberry.com does not provide a link to "contacts" were one could send such complaints.

ITunes 11.1.4 (62) can't find the info button to set up sync for contacts, calendars, etc.

I'm running iTunes 11.1.4 (62) and can't find the info button to set up sync for contacts, calendars, etc.

That option has been removed with Mavericks. Syncing for calendars and contacts etc can only be done through iCloud:

Two different users, same contacts, calendar, etc.

Howdy everyone! I need some help. First, I consider myself fairly smart when it comes to iOS products, etc. so I've tried to mess with this on my own before reaching out to those that are smarter than me.
First, I upgraded my wife's phone and my phone to iOS 8 last night, seamless process.
We share the same contacts and calendar so we've always have used the same icloud account.
Main reason is so that we can share contacts, calendar, etc. We also share the same itunes account so that when we purchase an app or a song, etc. it's on all our devices without having to purchase it twice.
Now, with the new family sharing this isn't an issue.
My question is, well many questions are, now it's giving me troubles. It thinks my phone is my wife's phone and "find my friends" aren't working. It says "can't share location with yourself".
Also, I'm not opposed to using two different iclouds because we have family sharing now, but it's imperative that we see each others location for safety concerns, contacts and calendar.
I can't figure the best way to set this up to fit our needs.
Recap...
Want to share calendar, contacts.
Want to take advantage of family sharing
Want to us

figured out how to share the calendar so this issue is fixed. Figured out how to do family sharing, so this too is fixed. I'd like to figure out a way to share contacts so we pool from the same address book. Any help with this would be appreciated!

I just setup mine and my wife's iphone 4 on new ios5 and icloud settings. Our phones are both on my account. Her phone is receiving my contacts, calendars, etc. due to this. Is there a way I can separate her phone from my account in itunes and icloud?

I just set up mine and my wife's iphone 4 on new ios5 and icloud settings. I have both phones on one account and actually she purchases apps/music with my sign in and password on her phone.
Now that we are set up on icloud settings, her phone is receiving my calendars, contacts, etc. she does not want and does not need any of these items on her phone. How can I separate the two now? is there a way to have a different login and password for her phone so that it sets up on its own icloud settings?
Thanks

She should create her own Apple ID and start using it for everything, including purchasing.
It starts on the computer in iTunes. There are 2 elements we are dealing with;
purchasing items from iTunes (apps, music) and playing items in iTunes.
Only one Apple ID can be signed in at a time for purchasing. But you can "authorize" multiple Apple IDs for playing. As long as iTunes is "authorized" with both your Apple IDs, items purchased with these different accounts can coexhist in one iTunes Library.
Why this is important, it has to do with back up and being able to transfer purchased items to the computer.
Once your wife sets up her own account, she will want to connect the iPhone to the computer to back it up and transfer any new purchases, iTunes will need to be authorized for that to happen.
With that said, a new feature of iColud is back up. It will back up everything to the cloud. You need to turn it on, it's at the bottom of the iCloud settings on the iPhone. It is limited to 5GB for free, you can buy more. I used all 5GB my first back up, but I have a lot of crap, and there's a lot of things on the iPhone that get backed up that don't count against the 5GB, so it might be plenty of space for you.
When it comes to the iCloud and contacts/calendars, again your wife needs her own account. (ASAP) Does she have a computer in her life that has a list of her contacts and calendars. I hope so, because it sounds like her contacts on her iPhone are now mixed with yours. Or I hope there is still an untouched list of contacts on the iPhone that iCloud didn't mix. Either way Delete your iCloud account from her iPhone. Remove the data, as long as it isn't hers. This will delete all info being synced to the cloud. If she still has a list of her old contacts on the iPhone, great. If not, I hope she has them somewhere else, like her own computer.
Create her an iCloud account. Enter the account info where ever there is a list of contacts/calendars and get the info onto the cloud, then add the iCloud settings to any other devices.
Any new apps/music purchased with her account will back up to the cloud. I don't think apps purchased with your account will. She will also need to enter your password for updating these apps, because they were purchased with your account.
I hope this helped and didn't make thing more confusing. Good luck!

Importing contacts, calendar, etc from Palm Tungsten E2 to iphone 6

Does anyone know how to import the contacts, calendar, to do list, etc from a Palm Tungsten E2 into an iPhone 6?

Thank you for the information. I tried to sync through outlook as the instructions said but had problems with installing outlook on the XP machine, had problems with the Palm software on my Windows 7 machine, etc. Spent lots of hours trying to get this to work but I think most of the problems were due to issues with my 2 different computers. Finally found out about CompanionLink. Installed that software on my XP machine since that is where my Palm Desktop resides. Had to add the app DejaOffice on my I-Phone. Synced the 2 together and everything was transferred onto my phone in the Dejaoffice app. All calendar and contact information was also synced into the I-phone calendar and contact list. The only thing I will have to copy and paste are the reminders and other notes into the phone reminders and notes and then I should be able to delete the DejaOffice app. The companionlink software is usually 49.95 to purchase but you can download a trial version for 14 days which works just fine. It took a total of about 25 minutes to download and sync my Palm and phone and I had previously spent at least 8 hours trying to get things to work. So frustrating. But thank you for at least offering some help.
