Make icloud contacts the default contact folder in outlook 2007

Recently Outlook 2007 Contacts defaulted to the Contacts folder under My Contacts instead of the Contacts in iCloud folder under iCloud. The iCloud folder is at the top of list but Outlook does not default to it when I open Outlook 2007. How do I change the default folder that opens when I start Outlook 2007?
Here's what I see.
CONTACTS
All Contact Items
(Drop Down Menu)
    Search these date files
          Personal Folders
          Archive Folders
          iCloud (check marked)
          [email protected]
iCLOUD
     Contacts in iCloud (I want Outlook to default to this folder)
My Contacts
     Contacts (this is the default folder when Outlook opens that I can't change)

Set Contact Defaults.Outlook for Windows

ICloud Contacts Sync with Outlook 2007

I have an iPhone5 and an iPad2. I have been using iCloud to sync Contacts between these two devices for a few days without any problems.
Today I installed iCloud Control Panel on my PC (running Windows 7 and Outlook 2007) to let me keep Contacts in sync between my iPhone5, iPad2 and Outlook.
Everything seems to be working correctly and Contacts are in sync between all three devices. However, in Outlook I see a message at the bottom of the window which says "Synchronising Hierarchy" - there is a rotating icon to the right of the message. This message has been displayed for the last 3 hours.
Does this indicate some aspect of sync is still in progress or is there a problem?
Thanks in anticipation of your help.

On his phone, sign in Settings>iCloud and enable Mail so that he can have his own email address. Then add your account in Settings>Mail, Contacts & Calendars and enable Contacts and Calendars. They will then appear on his phone alongside any syncing he has set up. This will keep your emails separate, or you can add Mail as well so that you can both access that if you want. You can add his account in the same way on your phone and enable any data types you want to sync.

How do you make mobile numbers the default number used in your contacts for sending text?

How do you make mobile numbers the default number used in your contacts for sending text?

Go to your contacts, find the contact that you wish to text, hit 'edit', and move that contact's numbers around until the mobile number is at the top. Arduous I know, but it works. Now when you go to text that person, the mobile number should be the default.
Best.

How to set up icloud as the default calendar in Outlook

How do i get icloud contacts back into Outlook contacts? My outlook contacts got wiped off in a pst export.
I think i want to tell icloud to sync with Outlook and make icloud the controlling account. NOT outlook to iclout. there are 6325 contacts in icloud. only 12 in outlook. about 10 days ago i had same amount in OL and icloud. i had to restore my computer PC. My iphone is correct. My PC/ Outlook i not. thanks for any help.

Hello Otienogo,
Try the below steps on your iPhone,
Go to settings>iCloud and Login with your Apple Id.
Contacts should be on, click on it to turn it off and choose keep (even if it shows you no contacts)
When the process is done go ahead and turn on contacts again, choose merge. All your contacts should show up if you had a previous backup to icloud.
Hope this helps you.

ICloud destroyed my contact groups in Outlook 2007

I have windows 8 and in my Outlook 2007 I created some (coloured) groups of contacts.
A few weeks ago I received from Apple a email, because I own an iPhone 5, that I could get my contacts
synchronized with Outlook. I had to give the version and some steps to implement it.
I also had to create a new iCloud address. I thought it might be useful.
Now weeks later after my vacation I come home and I remember that I have to send a mail to a certain group of my contacts.
I open my Outlook 2007 , emails everything ok, until I open my My Contacts / contacts:= totaly blank!!
Underneath is a box with iCloud / contact in iCloud: I can open there my contacts (I hope they are all there?) arranged alphabetically, but all my groups of contacts are gone! hours and hours of work wasted!
How can I get my contacts in my Outlook 2007 back into the groups classified as I had created them?
Microsoft and Apple do not directly support a suitable solution.
How can I reverse the steps that I did before synchronizing to iCloud ? The contacts (groups!) are not in “deleted items” !
Please help !

You can get your Contacts back as they were by signing out of iCloud and then restoring your backup (if you have made backups). If not, you can't.

Perhaps it’s a design feature to speed up the Organizer launch.
I am sure it is.
- The normal use of the Organizer is not the folder view, it's the thumbnail view with an organization based on categories and folder. That way you should forget completely where your pictures are stored. Anyway, the folder view in the Explorer is not a map of the location of the different bits of your file, it's only a logical representation. That's easy to see when you are doing a defragmentation.
- The folder view is useful even for those using normally the thumbnail view, but that is only for rare cases when you must change the folder organization, for instance moving files to another drive. The folder view is here to prevent you from changing things from the explorer and outside of the Organizer.
- The new folder list view, which you find 'funny' is there to help better organizing using tags. Its huge advantage is that such a view is created extremely quickly by extracting the last subfolder in the media table : it's the way the database sees the folders, based on its own content, totally ignoring the complex folder organization of your disk with media files or any unrelated other kind of data. You should use it in many cases, the main purpose being assigning tags when you have assigned descriptive folder names. I had suggested such a solution to prevent the long standing bugs in the folder view of previous versions.
So yes, the purpose is:
- to speed up switching modes
- to help folder organization fans to migrate to tags organization
- to hopefully get rid of the old folder organization bugs

How can I change the default save folder in MP Navigator for saved scans?

I am using MP Naqvigator with my Canon MP600 multifunction device and saving to an external drive is clunky because each time I save a document I have to browse to the device and the destination folder. I have tried to find a way of setting the default save folder from /users/myname/pictures/mpnavigator to volumes/drivename/foldername so that it speeds up the process. I've looked at all of the preferences files for the MP600 in the application and support libraries but can't see any reference to that default path. I'd be very grateful for any solutions from other Canon users.

It should still work the same way. I changed mine in either Snow Leopard or Lion and it remains the way i Changed it in Mountain Lion.
bob[07:25]~>defaults read com.apple.screencapture location
/Users/bob/Documents/ScreenCaptures/
to change it I had entered:
defaults write com.apple.screencapture location /Users/bob/Documents/ScreenCaptures/

Need to make Tray 2 the default on Laserjet 300 color mfp

I have installed a new laserjet 300 color mfp in our office and added an optional tray 3. We added tray 3 to only use for printing 8 1/2 x 11 job tickets on letter size labels. The idea is to make tray 2 the default tray and always have plain letter size paper loaded in it for all regular paper printing. Tray 3 is to be used ONLY when a job ticket is printed in MS Access which has the report setup to go to tray 3. I am constantly running into the situation of a user printing a 'normal' job and then the printer pulls expensive label stock from tray 3 and prints on it. I don't understand apparently how to prevent this from happening? Can someone tell me a way to force tray 2 to be the default tray to print from UNLESS the application tells the printer to pull from tray 3? Thank you in advance for any help on this.

On the printer (via front panel menus, or Embedded Web Server or Toolbox equivalent), specify which Paper Type (from the limited value set of names available) is present in each tray; also check that the Paper Size in each tray reflects what is prresent (with most Laserjet printers, sensors in the cassette trays automatically detect the size installed).
Then, when issuing a print request, instead of specifying paper source (tray) identifiers, select a combination of Paper Size and Paper Type (via the Print Preferences) to match the printer configuration.

Could I change the default temp folder(C:\Windows\Temp)?

Hi All:
My web server is IIS 6. Sometimes the temp crystal report objects could not dispose when I close IE. I have some codes to control the evnet(colse IE to dispose CR objects) but the result is not good. Could I change the default temp folder(C:\Windows\Temp)? Because I want to delete the temp files by schedule. If the temp folder in C:\Windows\Temp, there maybe have anohter .tmp files in this folder and I want to avoid to delete them. Thank you very much.

Thank you very much. But this is not my solution. I prefer to set the temp folder by a method or attribute to set the physical path, or to change the register. On the other way, Can I set the Environment Variables like %BOE_TEMP% for the default temp folder. Because there maybe some other systems also used the same environment variables(%TEMP%). When I delete the temp file in %BOE_TEMP% folder, I will never to delete temp files of the other systems. Could I?

How do I make an application the default?

I installed Microsoft Office 2011. I do not want to use Outlook for mail. I want to use Apple Mac Mail. Sometimes Outlook opens instead of Mail. For instance if I click on an email link in Safari. How do I stop this?
How do I make an application the default? This would be the same as make a file type open with a default application in Windows.
I hope someone can help. I have looked in all the help files and not found the answer.

Re setting a default app for email -
Start up Mail. Open Mail's Preferences (Preferences in the Mail menu). Go to the General tab if it does not open with that chosen. First item in that screen, "Default email reader" - use the pulldown menu to select the app you wish to use. Then close the Preferences window and quit Mail.
Re setting a default app for a given file type -
Select a file of that type by clicking it once, then press Command-I (Get Info in File menu). Look down in the Get Info window to the section "Open with:" - use the pulldown menu there to select the app you wish to use for that file type, then click the "Change All..." button. From then on, double-clicking any file of that type should open it using the app you set.

Can i make all inboxes the default that opens each time i open mail

Can I make "all inboxes" the default that opens each time I check mail?

Agreed! I think it's absurdly rediculous that it can't be set to open by default on the "All Inboxes" screen! This SHOULD be an option! It's a huge pain to be forced to exit a "single accounts inbox" then go back into the "all inboxes" screen. It's redundant. LOL. I was really hoping that they would add this option in ios 7...
