Need to sync only address book with exchange 2003 - Snow Leopard

Hey everybody!
M very new to troubleshooting MAC. M a network engineer and have an employee who recently got a new MAC with snow leopard OS.
The problem is he would like ONLY his address book to sync with our Exchange 2003 to he could pull out the contacts from LDAP.
Have spent few hours and found out about DavMail from this forum.
But is there any other way to do this which I've not come across, basically a MAC or Microsoft way or application?

icloud can be turned on or off or the whole account can be deleted. You manage that all in iOS5 , under "Settings" -> "icloud".
Wifi Sync must be turned on both in iOS and on Itunes 10.5* on the Mac' settings :
in iOS : "settings" -"general"-"itunes wlan sync"
* In Lion and itunes 10.5 there is the option, don't know about Snow.

You can not create an iCloud account on a PC, you may create one on an iPad, iPhone or a Mac

Unable to sync iMac address book with iPad. Can you please help?

Unable to sync iMac address book with iPad. Can you please help?

I have the same problem as Sheilaza but haven't been able to solve it using the advice offered. The same problem applies to my Calendars. When I look at my iPad settings in iTunes, it says:
Sync Contacts
Your contacts are being synced with your iPad over the air from iCloud.
Over-the-air sync settings can be changed on your iPad.
and the same for Calendars.
On the iPad, in iCloud settings, I have checked 'Contacts' and 'Calendars' as 'ON' but the Calendar remains blank and the Contacts are a very old version that was somehow created when I set up the iPad initially.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

Mail & Address Book with Exchange = Problems Problems Problems

Hi All,
There is a serious issue with Mail/Address Book in Lion with Exchange Server 2010. I have had nothing but grief since upgrading and I have been able to recreate my scenario on two macs using two different profiles so I know it's not related to any settings or anything. None of these problems appear in Outlook 2011.
Basically, to sum up the massive list of problems:
The connection to Exchange drops all the time. I have to use to function "Take my accounts online" about 60-70 times per day.
Trying to send new e-mail often results in a pop-up box indicating that the server isn't available to send (with the options to Try Again With Selected Server or Try Later)
GAL look up for names takes forever. Sometimes the GAL will come up right away, but often times, there's the spinning progress indicator that can take upwards of 1-3 minutes to find the name in the GAL. Same in Address Book, spinning indicator trying to retrieve the GAL.
When sending e-mails, Mail seems to "duplicate" the last name of the person I'm sending the e-mail to if I've already sent them an e-mail in the past (even if I clear the previous recipients list). For example, "John Smith" would appear as "John Smith Smith"
Trying to move messages often fails. I suspect this is due to issue #1 above.
Like I mentioned, none of these problems occur in Outlook. Granted, I would much prefer to use Mail as the search functions are much faster and the program is snappier.
Has anyone else experienced similar issues with Mail on Lion + Exchange 2010 servers? At this point I'm wondering if it's potentially a configuration issue with our exchange provider (and if so, what would it be?).
Cheers,

I'm having this same problem with syncing address book to exchange contacts. I know I have the correct exchange server specified because I have it in both Apple Mail and on my phone. Also, In the past i have been able to sync address book, but at some point that stopped working. Exchange is syncing perfectly ota to my phone, but I hate to go into OWA to add or change contacts.

Syncing Mac Address Book with iCloud

Hello, I am trying to sync my Mac Address Book with iCloud. All contacts that are created under iCloud on Mac Addess Book are immediately synced. But if I create a contact on the Mac book exclusively, that contact will not get synced with iCloud.
Does it mean that if we want to sync Mac address book contacts with iCloud, they should always be created under the iCloud category on the Mac? Can someone help me with this. I have checked all sync options are switched "on" and sync is working fine across all other apps.
Thanks,
Farhan

I believe the duplicate address books stems from the move from MobileMe to iCloud.
In system preferences I found an iCloud icon and also a MobileMe icon. I was logged in under both.
1) In the Address Book preferences I selected iCloud and unchecked Enable this account.
2) In the Address Book I selected iCloud and clicked on the minus “-” to remove that account – leaving only the local Mac address book.
3) I went into system preferences and logged out of MobileMe
4) In system preferences I opened iCloud and the “Contacts” was not selected (from above) and I selected it.
I got a dialog box asking if I wanted to merge the iCloud contact with the local contacts – clicked YES.
… spinning wheel for a minute … voila – only one address book account – iCloud with syncing to iCloud and my iPhone.

How can I get my iphone to sync its address book with my mac?

I have iCloud configured to sync my address books, but they don't. I have all my contacts on my phone and want to be able to have them put onto my mac. I've never been able to figure this out. I used to have the sync address books setting selected (before iCloud), and it still never synced. I've read other discussions on this and have tried adding a contact to see if it prompts a message about merging contacts come up, but nothing seems to work. I have tried everything it seems. Any help?

You'll have to use Wi-Fi to sync, Bluetooth is not supported:
You can use iPhone with the Apple Wireless Keyboard and other Bluetooth devices, such as Bluetooth headsets, car kits, and stereo headphones. Third-party Bluetooth headphones may support volume and playback controls. See the documentation that came with your Bluetooth device. For supported Bluetooth profiles, go to support.apple.com/kb/HT3647
From the manual: iphone_user_guide 5 page 109
Use iCloud to keep Contacts up to date on your iOS devices and computers
Go to Settings > iCloud, then turn on Contacts. See “iCloud” on page 17.

High CPU usage for Mail/Address Book with Exchange/GMail

I reinstalled 10.6 on my MacBook Pro because it since the upgrade from 10.5 performance has been generally lousy and I wanted to make a fresh start. I am finding that my performance problems with Mail (which connects to both Gmail and Exchange) is still poor At all times, even when Mail is not processing any connections to either mail server, it consumes about 25% CPU just being idle. Oddly, Address Book uses 25% minimum CPU at all times. Also, in Address Book, I see the contact list for my Exchange account has the progress meter spinning at all times, even after a full reboot of the computer. My Mail and Contact lists are fully synced up at this point so I am not sure what all the overhead is for. It really drags down general performance of the machine, especially when I attempt to load any complex pages in Safari where I constantly see the pinwheel. This is all pretty troubling since this is a fresh install of the OS and I actually have same problems as I had with Mail before plus I now have new problems with Address Book that I DIDN'T have before. I haven't even turned on Time Machine because after the way it affected performance on my previous install for 15 minutes out of every hour it will surely render my machine useless.
In a word, "Help".

My problem doesn't align exactly with yours, but I'd suggest you try this anyway (especially if you aren't using RSS within Mail - this is sure to blow away any Mail.app RSS feeds):
+So, if you see the Mail application growing in size until it aborts, it appears that the most direct fix is to quit Mail and delete the ~/Library/Mail/AvailableFeeds and ~/Library/Mail/AvailableFeeds-journal files. No reboots or other actions are required.+

Syncing only Address Book and Google Contacts - nothing happens?

I've been trying to set up Address Book/iSync to sync my contacts between Google Contacts and Address Book. I have the Google account information configured correctly in Address Book Preferences -> Synchronize with Google Account but when I go over to iSync and hit "Sync Now" as the instructions tell me to, nothing seems to happen. That is, the sync icon spins for a couple of seconds and then stops, but no changes have been made to either set of contacts.
Have I missed a setting somewhere? I used to have a palm device configured, but I deleted it because I got an iPhone - could something be screwball because of that?

Huh. Apparently I have to have my iPhone connected, then it will sync everything including the Google contacts. Funny that it wouldn't sync without it.
So I guess the moral of the story is to make sure that everything is connected and if you have an iPod/iPhone, initialize the sync through iTunes. Bizzare.
Now to go through and the duplicates...

Ihone 4 and itunes 10.0.1 cannot sync only address book

Having no problem syncing calenders , mail and gallery . The only problem is the address book . I have mobile me and when I try syncing in itunes the address book just loads . Itunes also says my phones has been disconnected so it couldn't sync but my phone is connected . I went to the nearest apple store here in Japan and the genius couldn't figure out what was wrong . Has there been any newer updates for this bug ? Another question is how do I use photo profile from social networks (facebook) onto my apple address book .

Good to hear things are working better for you, however I haven't noticed any change myself, my syncs have always been relatively quick.

Sync iMac Address Book with iPad

I have two iPads. I can sync my iPad with the address book without a hitch. However, I cannot sync it with iPad2. I created an archive and sent to myself, but I couldn't open the .abbu file. Any advice?

I have the same problem as Sheilaza but haven't been able to solve it using the advice offered. The same problem applies to my Calendars. When I look at my iPad settings in iTunes, it says:
Sync Contacts
Your contacts are being synced with your iPad over the air from iCloud.

and the same for Calendars.
On the iPad, in iCloud settings, I have checked 'Contacts' and 'Calendars' as 'ON' but the Calendar remains blank and the Contacts are a very old version that was somehow created when I set up the iPad initially.

Syncing contacts/address book with Gmail

What is the sync icon on the Menulet bar syncing when I click on this icon?
I have new iMac. I use Google Apps where I have my contacts and calendar. My mail is pulled from the Google servers to Outlook 2011.
iCal seems to sync correctly with my Google Calendar. However I have many duplicate contacts in Address Book. I have Microsoft Office 2011 with Outlook on my iMac. In Outlook 2011 under Contacts I have these same duplicate contacts.
If I correct the duplicate contacts in Gmail, will clicking on the Sync icon on the menulet bar sync Address Book and Outlook 2011 contacts with the corrected contact list in Gmail? I want the Google contacts to receive any changes I make in Address Book and Outlook, and any changes I make in Gmail contacts to be received in Address Book and Outlook. Will this be done automatically or must I click the Sync icon on the menulet bar?

I have resolved this problem. I found that it is not necessary to click on the the Sync icon to have Address Book, iCal, and Outlook 2011 sync with Google Mail. I have over 2,500 duplicate contacts in Google Mail. I uses the tool in Google Mail/contacts to find duplicate and merged them. All is well.

Let's say I sync my address book with .Mac. Now...

...if I add to my address book using an Internet browser on another computer, will my Mac be updated with this new address as well? If not, how do I make it so it is?

Welcome to Apple Discussions.
If you log onto your .Mac account and change data displayed in your address book on .Mac, then—following the next scheduled synchronization event—the change will be reflected on all of the devices included in that event.
What Apple hasn't explained outside of the developer community is that you are not actually synchronizing applications [like iCal or the Address Book] or servers [like .Mac] or devices [like your mobile handset or a Palm organizer] when you initiate a synchronization. What you are really doing is triggering an interaction with one or more of these and the SyncServices engine, which maintains what is termed the 'truth database'—or simply, the 'truth'—to which is pushed, or from which is pulled, the current state of data maintained in fields and records for one or more specific data types. Because of the way this process works, it is not necessary to have all synchronized devices available or attached when a synchronization event occurs.
So you can make a change to your .Mac address book records and, during a subsequent synchronization, exchange the most current data maintained in the truth with the updated information from .Mac, and then, hours later, plug in your iPod, an action which will trigger iTunes to pull the latest data from the truth and write it to the iPod, updating your contact and calendaring records. The same is true for other applications, servers and devices.
