IPhone/iPad is not syncing Exchange ActiveSync Contacts

We had an issue with our mail server about a week ago which caused emails to be queued. After the problem was resolved we had one employee who had trouble receiving emails on a iPhone and iPad. The employee is able to log in to their OWA account and send/receive emails. Since then we deleted the phone and iPad out of the OWA account. When the devices were re-enrolled and the account information was pushed to both devices the person was able to view their emails, all calendar events, but no contacts. When they are using their laptop or logged in on OWA they are able to see all contacts. I have tried going to Settings -> General -> Erasing All Content and Settings, Reset All Settings, and Reset Network Settings. After the account was pushed to the iPad I turned off/on sync for contacts to re-sync. Still no contacts populated. If you add a contact to the iPad it will not add to their Exchange account. Lastly, I put their account on two different iPads, both times I was able to successfully see their mail, contacts, and calendar. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

if your phone is that bad off that it is "acting up severely," I'd try a reset, restore, recover and if those didn't work, go visit my local genius bar so it won't "act up severely" any more

Ipad2 and Iphone 4 will not sync calendar only contacts

Hello. I have a problem with an ipad2 and iphone 4. The same @me account on both which has been migrated to icloud. I put a contact on either device and almost immediately is in the other one. They are both 3g and they are now on a wifi network. (i am syncing via wifi)
The calendar is the issue. There are many events on both devices -different events- but they will not sync as the contacts do.
any ideas on what I can do? My problem is more than that but i will settle ti fix this one (I also have the original ipad which is not syncing either contacts nor calendar)
Any suggestion on how to have the push/fetch settting?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Also the calendars are the calendar which comes with the ipad, i am not using google calendar or contacts, just plain vanilla what came with the devices, i dont care about itunes sync/pictures/apps, just the calendar and contacts.
Thank you in advanced to anyone who can help.

Also, I forgot to mention, I stopped the calendar in all devices and rebooted them. I then waited before starting the calendar to see if it would sync but with no success.
I do not know what else to try. I think the push/fetch settings are ok because the contacts sync well and fast. I am out of ideas as to what to do to get the built in calendar to sync.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Google contacts and calendar events entered on my iPhone 5s are not syncing with my google account.

Newly entered contacts and calendar events entered on my IPhone 5s are not syncing to google.
Facts that may be pertinent:
- I switched from the iPhone 4 to the iPhone 5s and did the easy option of having it automatically set up like my previous phone, so I did not change any part of the setup. It is possible that it stopped syncing at that time, based on which contacts have synced and which haven't.
- My gmail account is set up as Exchange, with Mail, Contacts, and Calendars set to sync.
- Server: m.google.com, Use SSl is on, S/MIME is off (I don't actually know what these are, but maybe they matter?)
- Fetch New Data / Gmail account is set to Push
- Contacts and Calendar Default Account is Gmail
- In the Contacts app under Groups I have only GMAIL checked.
I've read that Google recommends CardDAV, which I gather is not the same as Exchange?
I'm afraid to delete anything and start over, for fear of losing my contacts.
Is there a difference between the gmail account I set up and what the Contacts app calls GMAIL?
If there is anything I should communicate about how things are set up on the Google end, let me know.
Thanks in advance for help!

Hello Marsden,
Try this...
Go to the isync program on your Mac.
Go to Preferences in the main menu
Hit Reset Sync History
I'm pretty sure this is how I fixed it... so far so good.
Let me know if that works for you!

Sync between MacBookPro and iPhone 3G does not sync properly. Calendars duplicate events but worse is that only contacts from Address book from letter T onwards sync. Any contacts on iPhone which are not on Mac are lost during sync.

Solutions?

No, I never really found an easy solution. I believe it is an issue with some corruption in the iTunes database on the specific device. In my case, both my iPad and iPhone now show duplicate stream songs if viewed through iTunes on my Mac, but they show different songs. A couple years ago I had a similar issue on my iPhone, and Apple support suggested I back up the phone, completely reset it, and then restore it from the backup. It did work, so I imagine it would probably work for my current issues with the iPhone and iPad. But resetting and restoring an iPad or iPhone always makes me a little nervous that something will get lost. When I did reset/restore the iPhone, I do have to say, the restore process was 100% perfect and I did not lose any data at all even though Apple support said I might. If you try to go that route, I would suggest backing the device up both to a computer through iTunes, and to the iCloud so that you have a double backup.
None of this really resolves the issue with how the iTunes databases are becoming corrupted on the apple devices though, so it is very likely to happen again until they fix it. I have been unable to determine if there were any specific actions or conditions which caused the corruption to happen in the first place.
Might be worth another call to Apple support, or dropping in the local Apple store if you have one near by.

Contacts entered on iPhone 4S does not sync to iCloud

Using iCloud with an iPhone 4S (version 5.0.1).
When I enter a contact on the iPhone, it will NOT sync to iCloud. However, when I enter a contact on www.icloud.com, it WILL sync to the iPhone. And yes, I am entering the contacts in the correct group on my iPhone.
Calendar entries sync properly in both directions, so it seems to be a Contacts-only issue...
Any thoughts?

I have the same problem with my iPhone 4S and new iPad. I tried both actions:
1) Uncheck SYNC MUSIC, allow the music to be deleted from the device, and re-sync. Did not work.
2) Check Match is off (it actually was off in both my iPhone and Ipad, as well as in iTunes). Nothing.
Anyone with this problem has been able to solve it?
I created a new "Test" playlist but did nt sync with any device.
Thanks.

TS3999 My iPad is not syncing calendar events via iCloud that I enter on my iPhone 5, but events entered on the iPad are syncing with the iPhone.

My iPad is not syncing calendar events via iCloud that I enter on my iPhone 5, but events entered on the iPad are syncing with the iPhone.

On you phone, go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Calendar and make sure you have selected a calendar listed under your iCloud account as your default. If not, make this change, then enter a new event on your phone and see if it syncs properly now.
If your settings are already correct, or if after changing them it still isn't syncing properly, make sure all the calendar events on your phone are in your iCloud calendar. If not, enter any missing events either on your iPad, or on icloud.com from your computer. Then, after your iCloud calendar is up to date, go to Settings>iCloud on your phone and turn Calendars to Off. When prompted, choose Delete from My iPhone. After a minute or so, turn Calendars back to On to sync your iCloud calendar back to your phone. Then try adding a new event on your phone and see if it syncs properly now.

My 3G unlocked iPhone is not syncing mail or contacts from my mac book pro, using Lion. I am able to get a calendars and music, only. I get the message that I need to reset the password which I have done 3x's on the phone and on the Apple server.

My 3G unlocked iPhone is not syncing mail or contacts from my mac book pro, using Lion. I am able to get a calendars and music, only. I get the message that I need to reset the password which I have done 3x's on the phone and on the Apple server.

Good to know that, but what can I do to get the mail and contacts downloaded from Icloud onto my Iphone? I am told that the password needs to be reset and I have erased and reset it 3x's already? Should I Restore All Settings or Restore Network Settings or will that result in a situation where I have to have it re-unlocked again? GRACIAS!

If so, on your Mac open System Preferences > iCloud

For the iPad, make sure Contacts is switched on. Tap Settings > iCloud

my iphone 3 will not sync with itunes, it says Apple mobile device is not started, also doing it with ipad - can anyone help??? thanks

Restart your computer. Run iTunes and check for updates. If there is a later version of iTunes available, download and install it. Then try again. If you still cannot see your iPad listed in iTunes make a list of all the things you have tried so that we can see exactly what steps you have taken.

Why is my iPad calander not synced with my iPhone?

I just got the iPhone 5 it works great! But my iPad is not syncing the calendar. The reminders sync but the calendar doesn't. What gives?
iCloud seems to be working.

Do you have Calendars turned ON in Settings > iCloud on your iPad?
What iOS level are you running on the iPad?

IPhone does not sync calendar and contact information

iPhone has not synced calendar or contact info entered on the phone with iCal or Address Book. Has shown NO updating in either app since mid-February. Since that time, have updated to iTunes 7.6 and, IIRC, OS X 10.5.2. This is a problem!!
<Edited by Moderator>
Thanks!

Do all Lessons as described by you - dont sync.
Have tested it with several different contact groups or single new contacts. Did it several times (resetting sync history and editing new groups contacts).
Also checked those boxes to overwrite iPhone Entries by the Computer.
Nothing appears on the iPhone.....

New iPhone 5 will not sync contacts, etc

Just upgraded from the 3's to the 5's for 2 phones. One phone activated without a problem but the second one has nothing but problems!
First it would not go through all the steps to activate it. Was getting hung up with the sync and stayed frozen in "connected to iTunes". After contacting Apple they suggested to "restore" the phone. We did and it finished the activation and is now activated with our carrier.
However, it did not sync over any contacts, mail, etc. The first phone sync'd everything, including old text messages!
What do I need to do to get all that to the new phone?
We had a (dot) ME account that my wife and I shared with the phones (use same password etc). When dot me transitioned to iCloud everything still worked fine on both phones. I use a separate Apple ID for iTunes and our ME account for iCloud. My wife uses the same password for both but it is not the iCloud password. It worked on the iPhone 3 fine.
* Side note - every time we did upgrades on the old phone my wife's phone always had problems. Not sure if something is just not set up correctly . . .
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Jim

I do not have an iphone 5 but a 4s so I'm not sure if this is really applicable. I had the same issue with my Iphone when I bought it and learned after trying many things that the real issue was the adapter.
I thought that the issue was the phone itself and was just waiting for the chance to turn back in. I was too busy. After about two weeks with the phone, my adapter was visibly damaged. I say visibly because I now believe that it was damaged before it was bought but I did not notice this. In any event I bought a new one at a tech store since I needed to charge the phone in the very least and what do you know? The phone synced and is working beautifully since.

My "notes" on iPad will not sync with iPhone thru iCloud. What gives?

My "notes" on iphone and iPad will not sync thru iCloud. I am sure it is user error...but I can not figure it out.

It reads like this is a problem on the iOS side. On your iPhone or iPad launch the notes app, in the top left corner tap the button until you are on the Accounts page and see if iCloud is an option. If it is select that option and new notes will push to your Mac. If its not close the Notes app and go to Settings > iCloud > Notes > Toggle On. The option will now be in the notes app as described above. Side note: You may be asked to set up an iCloud email if you haven't already. Hope that helps.
