New contacts added to my iPhone don't upload to my Outlook Contacts

When I synch my iPhone to my Outlook, it downloads all info from my Outlook Calendar & Contacts to my iPhone, but won't upload info that I added to the iPhone to Outlook.
Please help!

I don't understand why no one has responded yet. I don't think this is a very difficult question. I'm starting to suspect that because we both use PC's that we are somehow black listed.

Why are my options to create a new version for ipod or iphone don't work?

I've just downloaded the digital copy of the little mermaid & in the end, it didn't wnt to sync, so I searched a little on how I can make it work.
It was mostly the same answer that I found everywhere:
select the File menu > Create New Version > Create iPad or Apple TV version. Once the media has been converted, sync the iPad version to the iPad.
But the thing is, I tried & my options when I click on create new version, they all stay gray, why? It is so frustrating

Hi, welcome to Apple Discussions.
Select all the tracks of the album and *Get Info*. On the Info tab fill in the *Album Artist* e.g. as "Various Artists" or on the Options tab set *Part of a compilation* to Yes. Ideally (see link below) do both. If iTunes is organising your tracks then those set as compilations will end up in the Compilations folder, otherwise *Album Artist* overrides Artist.
You can edit these properties before you rip a CD (1), or for existing files (2 & 3).
For further details see Grouping Tracks Into Albums. Although aimed at linking things within iTunes/iDevices if you fix all the potential problems described therein it will also do most if not all of the work required to tidy up the folders in Explorer/Finder. Windows users may find that iTunes fails to move artwork files created by Windows Media Player for which I have written a script called CleanDeadArt.

Reminders Created in iPhone don't go off in Outlook

We have quite a few iPhones in our organization syncing with Exchange server using Exchange Active Sync and we've noticed a problem with the new Reminders module in iOS 5. When a reminder is created in the iPhone with an alarm, it syncs properly with Outlook and the alarm is set properly in the Outlook task but the alarm only goes off on the iPhone, not in Outlook. If a Task is created in Outlook with a reminder, it syncs with the iPhone as expected and both alarms go off.
We also discovered that, when the reminder is created in the iPhone, if we open the task in Outlook after it syncs and then save the task, then the alarm goes off at in both places.
We were wondering if anyone else had seen this behavior and if there was any word on a fix?
Thanks...Ray

I have same issue. Any news?

New contacts added on iphone don't make it to addy book or Mobile Me

Hey - Not sure if this is a Mobile Me or an iphone issue.
When I add a new contact by clicking the return address and selecting New Contact on an email I receive the new contact does not show up in my iphone's contact list, and even after synching my phone it does not show up in my imac's address book either.
But, if I start a new email and start typing the person's name, it will autocomplete with the address I just added.
If I then add the contact at home on my imac, and synch it into my phone I see it once in my phone's contact list. But, if I start a new email and start typing the name I will have both entries to choose from, if I entered them differently. One from the one I added on my phone and another from my imac. This is most noticable for my brother. The one I created on the phone just has his first name, but the one I created at home is under first and last name. So if I start typing his first name it will show the first name entry and the first and last name entry as if they're two different people. I do not see a first name only entry in either address book.
This behavior followed me from my iphone 3G to iphone 4 upgrade.
I am using Mobile Me and in itunes I have all the synching turned off and in the iphone's Account settings I have all the synching turned on.
Thanks!

This happened to me in a way on my new iPhone 4. I have many contacts on my phone and had them on other iPhones. My phone had been restored from my 3Gs back up when I got my iPhone 4. Someone texted me that wasn't in my contacts list and I clicked the option in SMS to add new contact. When I went to my contact list the name or number wasn't in there. However when I searched the name in spotlight it found it. I then synced to my computer and it didn't help. To fix it I just Spotlight searched, remembered the number and added it to my contact list straight up. I then had 2 results when searching spotlight and had to find out how to delete the one that wasn't exactly in my contact list and keep the one that showed up and now everything is fine.
However is there a fix for this so it doesn't happen again or an explanation to why.

HT204150 I have only 2 choices for contact groups on the iPhone 5, hotmail and iCloud. If I click both then I have all my hotmail contacts which I don't want. However if I only click iCloud, any new contacts I add don't show up :(

Only contacts added to the iCloud group will sync with iCloud. To make this your default, go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars...scroll down to the Contacts section and tap Default Account. Here, choose iCloud as your default. After doing so, new contacts will be added to iCloud and sync with your iCloud account.

Notes added to contact on iPhone don't make it to computer

Hi all,
If I create a new contact on my iPhone, and add a note field, any notes I put there will show upon the contact's card in my Address Book the very next time I sync. Any notes I add to the contact on the computer sync over to the phone no problem.
BUT... notes I add to an existing contact on the iPhone, don't sync back to the contact in Address Book.
Am I missing something?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Chip

A couple of things that might help out.
First try resetting your iphone by holding down the home button and power button at the same time until you see just the apple logo in the middle of the screen.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1737
Also, you can try resetting the sync history on your computer.
To do this quit all the applications you have open on the computer.
Then open isync found in your applications folder.
Next open the isync preferences.
You should see a button to reset sync history.
It might take a few seconds for this button to become available.
Click the button to reset sync history.
Quit isync.
Now open itunes, connect the iphone and sync contacts again.
Hope this helps.

HT1692 Can I clear my contacts off y iphone, and then sync with iTunes and return them back to y iphone, my IPHONE keeps retaining nos that it shouldn't, I delete them off, during edit, and they just return and added to the new contact along with the new

I Really would like some help, this problem has been with me for a couple of months,
i seem to be having problems with my contacts.
WHen I edit a contact, and pop in a new contact number, and delete the old number. It looks like it has been done. when I go to write a message or go back into the contact, it has the old number there again, I have deleted off the computer contacts as everything is under I cloud anyway. It seems fine on my iMac, but still retains the old nos, and other info, mainly on my IPHONE. Would it be useful to take all contacts off my phone, and reinstall them from my iTunes, or back up of whatever.. I am a nana, so please. Be gentle with me..
Regards

Contacts added in iPhone don not sync into Outlook on PC

Has anyone else had this issue: I have added new contacts into my iPhone and have tried to sync the iPhone with Outlook and the newly added contacts do not show up in Outlook Contacts. Is there a method to force sync of newly added contacts?
Thanks
Robert

Yes, the Sync with Outlook is checked on the info tab. My contacts from Outlook have been synced with my iPhone, it is just these newly added contacts on the iPhone did not sync into Outlook.

Since the upgrade to IOS7, the default phone label when adding new contacts on my iPhone 5 is "Radio". Previously the default was "Mobile" how can this be changed back to "Mobile"?

Since the upgrade to IOS7, the default phone label when adding new contacts in my iPhone 5 is "Radio". Previously the default was "Mobile". It is a hassle as when my iPhone contacts are synched with Outlook via Exchange, the phone number I've entered on the iPhone doesn't show on the default Outlook view as it is a "Radio" number rather than a "Mobile", "Work", "Home", etc number. It is still stored both on the iPhone & in Outlook & I can still use the number to phone or SMS, it is just incorrectly labelled & hence the source of frustration.
Apple please return the default to "Mobile" or alternatively find a way we can alter the default ourselves to "Mobile" or "Home" etc.

Try This...
Close All Open Apps... Sign Out of your Account... Perform a Reset... Try again...
Reset ( No Data will be Lost )
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.

I recently updated my iPhone 4s to ios6, and lost 1200 odd contacts. I have a backup from about 4-5 months ago avaiable. Can I add/update contacts from the back up rather than restore which i assume will literally delete any new contacts added...?

I recently updated my iPhone 4s to ios6, and lost 1200 odd contacts. I recently sold my macbook air and also my mac book pro, so have no recent backups avaiable. I have a backup from about 4-5 months ago available on an external hdd as a time machine backup. Can I add/update contacts from the back up rather than restore? The reason i wish to do this is because in the update i didnt lose any messages, so all of the people i have met and networked with since that last update those many months ago, i have in my messages listings. They are all unidentified numbers at present but over time i will be able to work through the messages and based on the conversation recall who each was with. Also, yesterday, some two weeks after the update had left my contacts list entirely empty... a vast majority just reappeard, though all of them are without any phone numbers, all just emails or facebook contacts. This is the work of facebook not mac/ios6 isnt it...? Any help here would be greatly apprecaited. I am about 2 days from flying to canada and having those contacts would make life a lot easier.

You should be syncing your contacts with an app on your computer or cloud service (iCloud, Gmail, Yahoo, etc), and not relying on a backup. If you haven't been doing this, start now and then restore your old backup. You will then be able to sync the new contacts back into the phone. However, you will lose all messages, etc newer thant the backup.

Help! I just got a Iphone 4S recently...went to upgrade it thru Itunes. I was asked if I wanted to add a new phone or restore, so I told it to restore. Now I don't have any of my new contacts, messages, etc!! Is there a way to get this info back?

Help, please!! I recently upgraded to a new Iphone 4S from a 3..I could not upgrade the software so plugged it into my pc and connected to Itunes. It asked me if I wanted to use it as a new phone or restore to my phone, (not being very computer literate, I of course chose restore) So now I have a phone that only has info for contacts from October!! I lost all new contacts, messages, etc. Is there a way to get back those contacts, etc? Thanks!

restore your contacts and calendar info from the program you sync with

During my iphone sync i used to see a window that would pop up indicating any changes in the address book and any new contacts to add during the sync
then i would hit Sync Contatcs and it would add the new information to the address book and iphone and finish the sync.
Has anyone else been missing this feature , Is it due to the lastest IOS software update ? . is there somehting i am overlooking in preferences .

Butting multible batches on a CD is not the problem, and having full accsess is not the problem, Youa are able to read them on a pc because they are not as picky about the media that is used, Chances are the company is using a media that your Mac can not read.
Not all Mac drives can read all Media types.
and likewise not all PC's can read and write to all media types as well.
For the most part DVD-R and CD-R are the most widely compatible media's that almost all Computers can read and write to.
You will probably find that if they are in buisness doing this they probably have the latest technology and are using a media type that your Mac can not read.

HT4910 when i back up my contacts from my iphone to icloud, any new contact that i added is not in icloud

When i add new contacts to the phone, i go to setting - icloud - and then back up contacts. when i go in to my icloud accound via computer its not showing up, i have even tried backing up via wifi and cable connection. nothing.. any help please

I assume by "email", you mean an email account such as Gmail, Yahoo or and exchange account. To get these contacts in iCloud do the following:
Go to Settings>iCloud, turn Contacts to Off, choose Delete from My iPhone when prompted (your iCloud contacts will still be in iCloud).
Download the app My Contacts Backup. (If you have more than 500 contacts to transfer from your email account you will need the “Pro” version.) Use the app to back up the remaining contacts on your phone (from your email account) as a vCard attachment to an email that you send to yourself. Confirm that you have received the email.
Go to Settings>iCloud and turn Contacts back to On.
Go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Account (in the Contacts section), and set this to iCloud.
Go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars...tap the email account you are syncing these contacts with and turn off contacts syncing with with this account. Otherwise you will end up with duplicate contacts on your phone.
Open the My Contacts Backup email and tap the attachment to import the contacts from the email account back to your phone, and to iCloud. All your contacts should now be in iCloud.
