Hi Kinnera2740,
On the old phone go into Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars. Are there any email accounts listed here? Such as Google, Yahoo, Hotmail, etc?
If so, tap on each of them and check the 'Contacts' option. If it is turned on, this means that contact syncing is enabled for that account and that your contacts may already be synced to that mail account.
Also check Settings > iCloud and look for the 'Contacts' option. Is it enabled? If so, then it is possible that some contacts could be synced to your iCloud account as well. You can check to see which contacts are in which account by going to the Contacts app on your old phone and pressing the 'Groups' button in the top left corner. You may see several groups here. Uncheck all groups and then check each group one at a time to check and see how many contacts are synced to each account. You may need to add the same mail accounts to your new phone and enable contact syncing to have the contacts from the mail servers sync down to the new phone.

Icloud and microsoft outlook 2010

Hi i just got a new computer and trying to set up outlook mail with my gmail account.
i have worked with Microsoft every day setting up the email account to the data file. i have icloud for my contacts and calendar only NOT my email. every time micorost fixes the email account it disappears and gets replaced by the icloud account and I can not receive mail. it has happened 5 times. i have worked with level 2 guys in microsoft and
it still happens. i can not get help with Apple because i do not have a mac.
why would the icloud interfere with my mail in outlook to download it and wipe it away.
when this happens i can not get my mail in outlook
any suggestions? is it outlook, icloud or my computer
thank you

Hello raffeph,
I was looking into what may be casing this issue and found a bit of info that may be helpful. In an article called iCloud: Troubleshooting iCloud Calendar found here: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3999
I recommend starting here:
Turn iCloud Calendar off and back on:
Close Outlook.
Open the Windows Control Panel:
In Windows 8, move the pointer to the upper-right corner of the screen to show the Charms bar, click the Search charm, and then click the iCloud Control Panel on the left.
In Windows 7 and Vista, choose Start menu > All Programs > iCloud > iCloud.
Remove the checkmark in the checkbox next to Mail, Contacts, Calendars & Tasks, and click Apply. Wait a few seconds, then replace the checkmark, and click Apply.
Open Outlook and test to see if the issue has been resolved.
Ensure the iCloud Outlook Add-in is active within Outlook.
Outlook 2010:
Open Outlook 2010.
Click the File menu.
Click Options in the left panel of the Outlook window.
Click Add-Ins in the left panel of the Outlook Options window.
Look at the list of add-ins beneath "Active Application Add-Ins" and verify that the "iCloud Outlook Add-in" is listed.
For Outlook 2007, follow these steps to verify the iCloud Outlook Add-in is active
Open Outlook 2007.
From the Tools menu, choose Trust Center.
Select Add-ins from the left column.
Look at the list of add-ins beneath "Active Application Add-Ins" and verify that the "iCloud Outlook Add-in" is listed.
For additional information about managing Add-ins with Microsoft Outlook, see this Microsoft support document.
Restart your computer. This may sound simple, but it does reinitialize your network and application settings and can frequently resolve issues.
All the best,
Sterling

How can I get iCloud using Microsoft Outlook Express?

With MobileMe I was able to import my mail, contacts, folders, etc. using Microsoft Outlook Express on a PC. I notice since moving Mobile Me to iCloud, when I try to access it using Outlook Express I receive an error saying the server rejected my password, even after verifying several times I am using the correct password. Is iCloud supported for Outlook Express?
Thanks!

Make sure to go into your icloud panel on your PC (in control panel) and on your phone (settings) and check everything you want to synch. Curious to know if this works for you as mine was working perfectly until last week.

Lost phone numbers from Contacts when syncing icloud ipad iphone outlook

I seem to have lost some contact numbers from icloud, ipad and iphone contacts and wonder if this was a syncing error with outlook to icloud.. can anyone help as these are business contacts. I also use Groups and CJournal on ipad too.

Contacts are not completely backed up as part of the iPhone backup. Only contacts necessary to back up your recent call and favorites lists are backed up, which often won't include all your contacts. (In fact, if the IT person backed up and then restored your phone from backup that may be how he lost many of your contacts.) Also, restoring from backup will revert all settings and data on your phone to those contained in the backup. If you want to try to restore from your backup anyway follow this procedure:
Before connecting your phone, open iTunes on your computer, go to Preferences, on the Devices tab check "Prevent…from syncing automatically"
Now connect your phone to your computer and import your photos to avoid losing any recent photos (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083)
Open iTunes and when your phone appears on the left sidebar, right-click on its name and choose Transfer Purchases (to transfer any recent purchased into your iTunes library)
Right-click on the name of her phone again and choose Restore from Backup, choosing the backup you wish to restore from
When this completes you can go back and re-enable automatic syncing if you prefers this

I lost all contacts from my iCloud folder in Outlook

After messing up with Outlook and a software utility from Code Two who syncs all contacts from Outlook back to iCloud (http://www.codetwo.com/sync-for-icloud/) I managed to erase all the 1490 contcts I had on iCloud. And also deleted them from my ipad and iphone. I decided thta the only solution was to restore them from my itunes backup but after restoring my ipad i saw that no contacts are restored. The same empty address book!!! Is this logical ? The itunes back doesnt keep all the contacts ? Whats the reason of doing a back up if it only keeps certain things but not the so so important contacts list!
Can anyone help ? Any suggestions ?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Click on the first contact, then shift click on the last one to select all contacts, then use the delete key on your keyboard. Make sure you have only chosen contacts from the iCloud group.

How do I sync my contacts from my iphone to microsoft outlook (laptop)

How do I sync my contacts and my calendar from my iphone to my new laptop. I used Microsoft Office. I used to be able to add items in my phone and they would automatically be added to my laptop. Thanks.

Do you still have your old phone? What kind of phone was/is the old one? If your old phone is an Android and you still have it turn it on. Hook up to WiFi, Go to your contacts and change them to google Contacts. Then go into your new phone and change it to Google Contacts as well.
Then when Google syncs all of your contacts back to your phone, kill the Verizon Cloud / Backup Assistant on your phone and back them up to the very simple and fast Google. Backup Assistant is not worth the time and effort to get things half right and is probably one of the worst apps I have ever seen.

New contacts that I create on my iPhone keep disappearing. I am using iCloud too.

I am using an iPhone 4S, a MacBook (not the Pro) an iPad 1 and the iMac.I am also using the iCloud on all devices other than the iMac. For some reason I frequently find that the some of the new contacts I am certain that I created on my iPhone just disappear and I can never find them if I search for them after a few days. Why does this happen??

Have you followed Apple's troubleshooting tips?

IPhone appts synced to Outlook keep disappearing in Outlook

I create appointments on the iPhone. It syncs to Outlook 2007 and generally appears in the day/week/month views. At some point later, the appointment disappears from the day/week/month view.
It is visible, instead, only if I go to the "Outlook Today" view or on the "To-Do Bar". It doesn't show it in the Day View, the Week View, or the Month View. They're always visible on the iPhone.
I feel like a crazy person. Why am I not seeing these appointments in the normal view??
This never happened before 2.0.
Setup:
- local (non-exchange) outlook 2007
--only one calendar, "Calendar"
- iphone 4gb w/2.0
--only one calendar, "Calendar"
--default calendar set to "Calendar"

Please disregard... seems to already be getting covered here:

I couldn't search b/c Apple's disabled forum searching, and I didn't see it initially.

Unable to sync microsoft outlook contacts (2003 xp) with new Iphone

I'm seeking (desperate) help with syncing my microsoft outlook contact with my new iphone. I love the phone, but it is going back to the store if I can't figure this out! NO problem at all on email or any other function, but calendar and contacts fail every time stating "Microsoft Outlook has encountered a problem and must close". I've tried removing and reloading the software. I've tried downloading ActiveSync 4.5 from Microsoft. Nothing works. I even read thru these notes and enabled itunes from the 'about microsoft menu'. I'm stranded!

First of all, welcome to the club. Syncing contacts and calendars is at the top of the list of problems. What version of iTunes are you using? Have you upgraded the iPhone to firmware version 1.1.1? Unless you have a Windows Mobile device to sync with the computer, uninstall ActiveSync, as the iPhone syncs by using iTunes only. Disconnect the phone and close iTunes, and run Outlook by itself to be sure it is stable. Did you ever get the error message before you first tried to sync with your iPhone? Open the Windows task manager and make sure that you don't have multiple copies of Outlook running. Do you see Outlook as a sync option in the Outlook "Info" tab? Have you checked the "radio button" for Contacts and pulled down the menu to select Outlook? Is Outlook showing as the program with which to sync under the Calendar area? I've gotten Outlook to sync with my "unsupported" version of Outlook XP, so it will work with 2003, although it may required the same fix.

Resizing Contact Pictures in Adressbook

Hi!
Has anyone an idea, how to solve this problem in a simple way.
I have a large number of contacts in my addressbook and many of them have contact pictures.
For some reason addressbook keeps the resolution and the uncropped image stored. This means that my addressbook is now quite large (over 150 MB), because I used HirRes Jpegs for many contact pictures.
Is the a simple way to resize the contact images to a reasonable resolution? A script e.g. The resize function in the pop up menue is not working for me. Just creates a black frame, but keeps the original still stored.
Thanks,
Lukas

Welcome to the discussions, LukasP.
As far as I can tell, when you drop an image into the picture space of a contact and size it, two copies of the image are made and stored in Address Book's images folder. One is a highly compressed copy of the original (in the case I have just tried the file size was reduced to 1/4 of its size) and the other is the portion cropped or sized. The former retains the original jpeg extension, the latter gets no extension. Both have the same UID-style filename. In my test case the original file was 2.2MB, the compressed version was 660kB, and the cropped version 24kB.
The point? AB doesn't use the compressed files, so you can safely delete them. Sort the Images folder by type, all the jpegs will be together and you can select and delete them.

Why do my recent phone contacts keep disappearing and re-appearing?

I recently bought an iPhone 4S and synced my contacts from my previous smart phone.
Now, the contacts I add get saved, but they keep disappearing and re-appearing automatically. This has been happening for almost a month now.
It is very embarassing when my new Manager calls up and I ask who he is.
Please help.

So after the subscriptions disappeared yesterday, I resubscribed to Democracy Now! and Bill Moyers Journal.
This morning, I went to check iTunes... and two of the subscriptions were gone -- AGAIN! And the episode of Democracy Now! that remained behind was now listed under real Tim with Bill Maher.
I'm getting so frustrated with this... why am I having to re-subscribe to podcasts every day now?

HT204150 microsoft outlook contacts are not uploading to icloud? how do I get it to upload?

My Microsoft outlook contacts are not uploading to icloud.. how do I correct this ?

I also have this problem, just from the iPhone 5s which makes my life crazy, too.
The problem of having multiple devices doesn't seem to help, but the odd part is when everything I am doing is correct, it still doesn't sync like it used to do before iCloud, and when we had to USB wire connect the iPhone to the Laptop to make contacts sync.
Might I add that I am not using MAIL on my LAPTOP?
but ?Britty sounds like her issue is easier as gmail sometimes can create duplicates so you are in good if you are not having that problem or nightmare...
IF ANYONE ELSE can PLEASE ADD to this THREAD? I would be thankful
as there seems to be a TRENDING on iPhone 5s not syncing with other devices or backwards.....(I have added contacts to the iPhone 5s and they never get added to the iCloud or the iPad or the Addressbook or CONTACTS on the LAPTOP....
This should be working and I have checked the CONTACTS on the laptop GROUPS , iCloud, vs ALL ON MY MAC
it just isn't syncing and in some cases I am getting a WEB DAV error or CAL error...-1
what is that? iCloud will not sync all contacts?
something is crazy
but I want to remain at 10.8 MOUNTAIN LION and not upgrade to MAVERICKS......or use MAIL on my LAPTOP...just CONTACTS ONLY......
