IPhone contacts won't sync with Outlook

I am trying to sync my iPhone contacts with my Outlook contacts but they won't sync. In iTunes I checked "Sync Contacts with Outlook" but nothing happens.

Check your contacts in Outlook and make sure they belong to iCloud and not My Contacts or another account such as Gmail, Yahoo or Exchange. Only iCloud contacts will sync with your devices.

Iphone contacts won't sync with outlook 2007

Hi,
Been banging my head against this for the last few hours and haven't found an answer in any searches of past posts,
I have it set up in itunes to sync with outloo, but when i load outlook up theres nothing there in the contacts.
Any help would be great thanks

Check to make sure the Outlook plugins are installed and active;
Start Outlook >
Tools > Trust Center > Add-ins
You'll need to see 2 add-ins; :
"iTunes Outlook Addin" and "Microsoft Outlook Mobile Service", both under the Active Applications Addin heading.
If either is missing, then do a repair install of Microsoft Outlook/Office and/or a repair install of iTunes. To do the former, go to Programs (and Features) in the control panel, find Office/Outlook, highlight it and then click on change at the top. You may need the original install CD and you will need to restart your PC. You will NOT lose any data or settings with a repair install. iTunes is the same procedure, except you click on Repair, rather than change.
Good Luck!

HT1386 Just downloaded the newest version of Itunes. Now my Iphone 4s won't sync with Outlook calendar. Has any one else seen this?

Just downloaded the newest version of Itunes. Now my Iphone 4s won't sync with Calendar in XP Outlook. Has anyone else had this problem, and how did you fix it? I've already made sure the proper check boxes are on in Itunes and tried the reset sync history. Also re-downloaded Itunes again. Same problem.

Well, OSX 10.9.2 is free, which should solve the iTunes problem, but 10.9.2 isn't bug free, & you'll lose the ability to run any PPC Apps if that important, as well as needing to update many Apps & Printer Drivers.

IPhone Contacts won't sync with iCloud

Hi!
I have my Macbook Pro and iPhone 4S synced with iCloud, so everything I do in one device shows up in the other.
About 2 days ago I noticed my iPhone contacts were not syncing with iCloud. Calendars, Notes, etc. is syncing and the Macbook Pro is syncing as well. Only iPhone contacts are not (both ways).
Any ideas are welcome!! Thank you!!!

Exhcange syncs with iPhone but won't sync with outlook at home

After hours of trying to get my iphone to sync with the exchange servers at work I have got it to work.
Now I am trying to setup my home computer to also be able to sync with my work exchange server. I can't seem to get it to work, I do the obvious (enter server info and user name) but it wont work.
In the iPhone I have the following information -
Email - username.lasm.company.com
Server - lasm.company.com
Usernme - domain\username
Password - password
Use SSL is enabled
In outlook I have
Server - lasm.company.com
username - username
but I can't get it to work.
If it helps, to access the company website it is just company.com and to access web email it is lasm.company.com/exchange but lasm.company.com will just forward you to the exchange website also.
PLEASE HELP

Yes, this is how my exchange works. I can get my Exchange account fine using ActiveSync via an iPhone. I can access Outlook via the web on my iPhone or a Desktop PC using a web browser.
If you are entering the same settings in Outlook on your home PC as they are set on your work PC and you can't connect to the Exchange server at home it's because your work won't allow a connection from outside their network.
Ideally, you need to contact your IT department as they should be able to tell you if can configure Outlook on your home PC to connect to their Exchange server or not. However, if they won't allow it then then there is not a lot you can do.
Windows Mobile devices that run ActiveSync also sync with Outlook. Because of this you get a sync'ed version of your Exchange account on your home PC via your Windows Mobile device. At the moment iPhone/iTunes does not do this. There have been a few comments on these forums about the omission of this functionality so please use http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html and feedback to Apple if you require this. If you have a MobileMe account you can get around this problem as you can sync from Exchange > MobileMe > Outlook, but MobileMe is a subscription service.

Ios8 - contact and calendar notes won't sync with Outlook

After the ios8 upgrade, I have found that any note in either a contact or a calendar entry made on my iphone 5 won't sync with my office Outlook account, nor will any changes made to notes in a Contact in Outlook, update on my phone. All worked fine pre-ios 8. Anyone have a solution - have tried deleting accounts, re-booting, etc? Thanks

KB23978 should help you with the "calendar not installed" problem
As for removing the facebook calendar, just go into options > advanced > service books > find "Facebook [CICAL]" and delete it

My iPhone 5 won't sync with the Nike Plus sensor

My iPhone 5 won't sync with Ike Plus sensor, new or old.

Hello bfelix,
You may need to switch 'Nike + iPod' off in your Settings, then re-enabling it. Make sure that the sensor is not in sleep mode (which can be corrected by pressing the small button on the side opposite the Nike and Apple logos). Depending on the age of the sensor, however, the battery may be depleted.
Make sure you have the latest version of... iPhone... software and iTunes installed.
Make sure the sensor is not in sleep mode by using a pen or stylus to press the Sleep/Wake button on your sensor once to wake it up.
On your home screen, tap Settings.
Scroll down and tap the Nike + iPod option.
Disable the Nike + iPod feature and then re-enable it by tapping the On/Off button at the top of the page.
Place the sensor back in the shoe and walk around to activate the sensor as you attempt to relink it to your iPod touch or iPhone 3GS.
If the issue persists and you have access to another sensor, link the new sensor to your iPod touch or iPhone 3GS. If you can link the new sensor to your iPod touch or iPhone, take in your first sensor for service.

Nike + iPod: About the sensor battery
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1400
The Nike + iPod Sensor's battery is not replaceable or rechargeable and has a life of over a thousand active hours. The sensor has a sophisticated built-in power-management system, allowing the sensor to consume power only when active (that is, when it senses motion).
Cheers,

My iPhone 4 won't sync with iTunes.

My iPhone 4 won't sync with iTunes
I am running iTunes 11.1.5.5, and my phone is using iOS 7.1
Windows 8 recognizes that the phone is connected, and even asks if I would like to download pictures, however iTunes will not.
So far, I have stopped and restarted AMDS, iTunes, my laptop, and the iphone. None of these have had any success. I've tried using a different cable, but the results were the same. The phone can download songs via its own iTunes app, but cannot sync with iTunes on the laptop.
How can I get my phone to start syncing with iTunes again? This problem occurs sparatically, sometimes syncing and sometimes ignoring the phone altogether, like it is now.

Does your Mac meet the requirements for the latest version of iTunes?
Macintosh System Requirements
Mac computer with an Intel Core processor and 512MB of RAM
OS X version 10.6.8 or later
Safari 4.0.3 or later
400MB of available disk space
Broadband Internet connection to use the iTunes Store
In the future, you're more likely to get faster, more appropriate responses by posting to the correct forum. The iPhone Hardware forum is not the correct place to be posting issues regarding iTunes on your Mac.

Mac calendar and contacts won't sync with iPhone 5 since upgrading to Mavericks.

Please,please, help,
My mac calendar and contacts (and who know what else) won't sync with my iPhone 5 since updating to Mavericks. I have lost new medical appointments on my mac which never synced to my iPhone. I am completely frazzled as I am a very busy mum (who isn't!) and the call centre is closed! A am a bit of a technophobe but have discovered the "info" tab that appears when I connect my iphone to my mac to sync has disappeared with Mavericks. I hope someone out there can help me.

Yes, you can reinstall your system from the backup you made before installing Mavericks. See this link

HT1386 My iPhone 4 won't sync with my Outlook Calendar.

I want to sync my iPhone with the Outlook calendar on my PC. I use XP. I sync with a cable to my USB port. Everything else syncs okay, but my iPhone Calendar is not syncing with my MS Outlook calendar. My old entries remain on my iPhone, but nothing I've entered recently syncs to my iPhone calendar. Or vice versa. I've checked my iPhone Calendars > Edit, all of the Calendars are checked. In iPhone settings, I've looked in Mail, Contacts, Calendars, and there is no reference to Outlook. Shared Calendar Alerts is On. Sync is "All Events." The Default calendar is Public Calendar.
The Default mail is Outlook Express. It is not syncing mail with my Outlook Express email account either, but that's a problem for another day.

This is how I got it fixed.
First, I reinstalled iTunes
I clicked on the tab with my phone
I clicked music
Uncheck the box where it says 'Sync Music'
Hit apply
Recheck the box and hit apply (or sync, whichever is showing at that point)
Hopefully this fixes any problems that anyone else is having.
