Is it possible to keep contacts on my iphone that are not included in the cloud?

I am using icloud to sync company contacts between all users.  Is it possible for someone to keep their contacts on their Iphone and still use the cloud without losing their personal contacts or syncing them into the cloud?
In other words, we are using the cloud company wide for the contacts information - which is stored on a Maverick computer.  The owner would like to sync her Iphone with the cloud, but not lose her personal contacts on her phone.  Meanwhile, she does not want her personal contacts synced with the cloud.
How can I accomplish this task?

Have her create a second ("secondary") iCloud account on your phone by going to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Add Account>iCloud, entering her Apple ID (a different one than is being used for the company iCloud account), the turn on contacts syncing with this account.  After doing this she can then sign into the company iCloud account in Settings>iCloud and turn on contacts syncing there as well.  Both contact lists will appear on her phone but her personal contacts will only sync with the secondary account which only she will have access to.  She can easily filter her view to see only the company or personal contacts by opening the contacts app on her phone, tapping Groups, then tap each of the accounts until only the one she wants to view is checked, then tap Done.
If she would rather not use iCloud at all for her personal contacts, have her set up a Gmail account on her phone (Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Add Account>Gmail) and sync her personal contacts with Gmail instead.

  • Hi. I just got the iPhone 6, plugged into itunes and made the mistake of putting an OLD back up on my new phone resulting in losing all contacts after 2013. They are not saved on the cloud. Is there any way to go back to before I screwed up?

    If you have performed a sync with the device since you restored this old backup, then don't bother looking for another backup. iTunes writes over the last backup each time you sync. If you were handling contacts in iCloud, you would find them by logging into iCloud. Or you can check settings and iCloud and see if the button it on for Contacts. Otherwise it might have been on the computer, if you had a program that syncs with iTunes and handles contacts, depending on the computer system you use. If Windows, it would be Windows Contacts or Outlook. If a Mac, there is a Mac Address book as well.

  • HT204150 Why are there contacts on my iPhone that are not on my Mac (syncing through iCloud)

    Why are there some contacts on my iPhone (and my older Mac) that aren't getting synced onto my new MacBook?

    First check that all your settings are correct, that contact syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
    Make sure the contacts you are adding are added to your 'iCloud' group and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud group (you can do this by checking in groups), non iCloud contacts will not sync.
    If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your contacts are in the iCloud group, you might try unchecking contact syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling contact syncing.

  • How can I add contacts in my iphone that are backuped in a pim file in my pc

    how can I add contacts in my iphone that are backuped in a pim file in my pc

    You have to get them from the file you have into iCloud, google, yahoo, outlook.com, AOL, an Exchange server, or some other service the phone can sync with, or into MS Outlook on your PC. Then you can sync them to the phone.

    Hey Raffiecat,
    Thanks for the question. If your iPod is setup to manually manage content, you can add content from multiple libraries:

    When manually managing content, you can add content from multiple libraries to your iPod or iPad. Even when manually managing music, some content may be available from only one library at time. This includes all content on iPhone and video content on iPod and iPad.
    You can also learn which content you can import to your new computer from your iPod:

  • I have 2 IPOD touches and now an IPAD2;I use outlook calendar and contacts, and now my devices are not syncing all the information in the calendar. Help?

    I now have 2 IPOD touches , 1 8 GB,1 32G plus an IPAD 2 that I've been having syncing issues with.
    my Dell D830 Latitude w/windows XP. I use outlook calendar and contacts, and the syncing is not
    completely syncing the outlook information. Help?

    Yes.  Just sync them to the same iTunes library.  iTunes will keep track of each so you can put what you want on each.  I do this with a 3G and iPad2. Note that each device will have it's own backup.

  • Method needed to identify Contacts that are not valid from the Comp Screen

    Problem
    My Company has 65k contacts in the system, we do not delete contacts that are no longer at company, as when we buy data our data in some cases will be more up to date that the third party data available on the market. This then means when a user looks at a company record and the related contacts, he has to hover the cusor over each of the contacts to check if they are valid or not.
    Goal
    When a user looks at the contacts linked to the company the following fields will be presnt:
    Contact Valid
    Contact Leave Date.
    This will then mean the user will be able to see without looking which contacts are valid and which are not.
    Problems
    I have tried to create a contact page layout with the fields needed however the only fields avaiable are as follows:
    Company ID
    Company Name
    Company Status
    Contact ID
    Contact Name
    Contact Roles
    Location
    Primary
    Can anybody help?

    Thanks for the reply.
    However I think I didn't make myself clear in my post in terms of the problem. The problem I have is that when a user looks at a company (account) record the user see the following information in relation to which of the available contacts to select "Primary,Last & First name,Job Title, Contact Role, Work Phone and Email". However none of these fields show if the contact is valid or if they have a leave date.
    Both Contact Valid and Contact Leave date have been set up in the system within the contact record. I want to change the layout and have spent hours in the following screens and functions.
    Page layout Management
    Company/Contact Related Information layout
    Related Information Setup
    Company/Contact page layout
    The problem is the screens/functions where I think I could add the two above mentioned fields end up with me turning the fileds into required or read only fields, and the section where I want to drag in the fields to display has the two fields missing.

  • HT204053 How do I download contacts from my iPhone 4 to the cloud so I can upgrade to the 5?   I have several contacts on my phone that are not in my yahoo contact list.   The cloud onky has the contacts that have been entered into yahoo.

    How do I download my contacts from my iPhone 4 to the cloud.   I have several contacts that I entered on my phone...they are not in yahoo.   I do not want to loose them when I upgrade to a 5

    To transfer your data and settings to a new device see http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2109.  You can also use an app like My Contacts Backup to back up the contacts on your phone as attachment to an email that you send to yourself.  If you need to, you can later open this email on your new phone and tap the attachment to import your contacts.

  • My contacts from my iphone 4S are not being uploaded and saved to iCloud.

    Why are the contacts that are on my 4S iphone NOT being uploaded and saved to iCloud contacts?  Yes, contacts toggle is turned to "on" on my phone.  Yes, I have updated manually while plugged in and connected to my WiFi as well as left it plugged in and locked to automatically update iCloud.  Still no contacts in my iCloud folder even though I have 379 contacts sitting on my phone.

    I'm no expert by far, but have had issues with this before.
    IMAP should allow your iPhone to remove messages from the server.
    But have you made sure both the iPhone and Outlook are connecting via IMAP?
    If your iPhone does remove the messages from the server, but your computer is using POP, then the computer may download the email before it is removed form the server by your iPhone.
    This was my issue, that my computer had already downloaded the message, and POP does not check later if it is deleted.
    If you delete a message from Outlook does it disappear on the iPhone?
    Alternativly you may need to check the email server settings.
    Who is your email provider?
    They may be able to check if IMAP allows you to remove emails.

  • Is it possible to use Lightroom with multiple computers that are not networked?

    I am new to Lightroom although I have been a professional photographer for over 15 years. Currently, I use the software that came with my camera to process my RAW files, Digital Professional Pro by Canon for a Mark II 5D.
    I have been evaluating the lasest version of Lightroom to consider purchasing it. So far, I love the expanded ability for image adjustments and enhancements. However, in my current workflow, I need to be able to save the adjustments to be able to transfer the files to another computer. Is this possible with Lightroom? With Digital Pro, I can tweak a RAW file and it will save the adjustments no matter what computer I open the image file on. I need to be able to duplicate this process in order to convey to our production department how I want an image adjusted and cropped.
    I downloaded the trail version on two computers, then imported images into Lightroom. Made adjustments, then copied the images to a flash drive.Uploaded images from flash drive to my laptop, then re-imported the images into Lightroom and the adjustments were not saved.
    Thanks for any help.

    After some research, my answer lies in the XMP file. Whenever I make adjustments to the image, I can save my adjustments by creating an XMP file (CTRL S). It writes it back to the original image folder so when I burn the folder to hand off the files to my production team, the xmp parleys my image adjustments. They in turn can make adjustments and send them back to me, if needed. Just took awhile to find the information because even though I am kicking the tires on LR4, it was a LR1 video that gave me the infomation.

  • How do I put all the contacts from my iPhone to my iPad?  In the cloud, when I click contacts it says "The contacts you previously synced with your Mac will be merged with iCould".  Is this what I want?

    I want my phone contacts on my iPad and to sync anytime I add/delete/edit them....

    rpearlberg wrote:
    So I'm still confused on what I need to do....
    delete everything from my iPad and then use iCould to sync contacts?  Or just use iCould now without deleting everything and iCould will sync them automatically?
    The latter should work if you respond Yes to merging the contacts. this will make all of the contact on icloudn AND the contats currently on the iPad available on all devices (merge them into one set of contacts).

  • Possible Bug?  autotype + wsdl2service generates implementation that does not conform to the WSDL

    Hey folks,
    I've got some hand crafted, valid, WS-I compliant WSDL + imported XSD that I've
    been using for awhile now to generate an Apache Axis 1.2 beta Document Literal
    Web Service implementation. I'm now trying to use the same WSDL to generate a
    BEA WL 8.1 SP2 Document Literal Web Service implementation and I'm running into
    problems.
    I've attached the WSDL, XSD, and build script that I'm using to generate the implementation.
    It deploys fine, but notice that the autogenerated WSDL that is returned from
    the deployed BEA Web Service contains two <xs:schema> sections: one for the imported
    WSDL (as expected) and one for several new elements that seem to get substituted
    for the elements used in the orignal WSDL message parts.
    The results of this are two fold:
    1) the autogenerated WSDL appears to be invalid when loaded into both XMLSpy and
    SOAPscope
    2) the SOAP requests to invoke the operations on the service do not conform to
    the hand crafted original WSDL. I've attached examples of both a BEA generated
    SOAP request and an EXPECTED SOAP request.
    I've poured over both the types.xml and the web-services.xml, and I'll be damned
    if I can see the problem. I'm wondering if the way I import schemas and reference
    elements declared therein is somehow not supported by BEA's ant tasks?
    Any advice or pointers at all would be appreciated.

    I don't know if you already now this but if you are using <autotype> to generate
    the types.xml from the XML Schema then you should first
    1) autotype the imported schema first.
    2) Then for the actual achema (that uses the imported xsd) <autotype> but with
    the
    typeMappingFile="importedSchemas/types.xml"
    option set to the types.xml output from 1)
    The types.xml will then contain all types from both Schemas. You can then pass
    this final types.xml from 2) to <source2wsdd> via
    typesInfo="types.xml"
    Any help ?

  • Is It Possible To Keep Secret Photos On iPhone?

    Is it possible to keep photos on an iphone that can not be accessed by someone just browsing through your iPhone (assuming the security code has already been entered at startup)? In other words, can you set up another level of security for just part of the iPhone? This is obviously an important feature for people that date more than one woman at the same time.

    I think that, right now, the only solution is to keep your photos off the phone, accessible via the web. So for instance, if you're taking photos of extracurricular activities (whethey you're Gov. Spitzer or a reincarnated Bob Marley), use one of the web apps that let you post to a website account protected by a password, then quickly delete the pics from the phone. That way you can always have access to your pics, but they will be password protected and not viewable when you show off your fancy iPhone to the young ladies. Not the optimal solution, but it would probably work.

  • I have an iphone 3 and outlook 2010. I cleaned up all my outlook contacts and tried to sync but not all of the existing contacts on my phone show up in outlook. Is there a way to sync all numbers on iphone to oulook so I can clean them up from my desktop?

    I have an Iphone 3 and use Outlook 2010. I just recently tried to sync with my desktop using Itunes and once they were synced I cleaned up alot of the contacts using outlook but when I tried to sync them not all the information from outlook made it to my iphone. Additionally, there are a lot of contacts in my iphone that are not showing up in outlook. I have tried several things but nothing seems to work. Any ideas?

    So after looking a bit closer i have noticed that when i have the phone plugged into the computer it shows the songs but when i dont have it plugged in and i go so the song icon on the bottom of the music menu screen it says i have no songs!
