New Contacts on the Phone, and problem syncing with Outlook.

I have an iPhone4 with the iOS5 software. I recently did a sync with my phone (regular sync using iTunes and not iCloud). I had added some new contacts to my phone, but after the sync was complete, the contact was removed from my phone. I assume because it was not added to my Outlook contacts first. Is there a setting in iTunes that will add contacts that are only on my phone to my Outlook contacts? I don't want to have to keep adding all my contacts in two places just so I have them as a backup.

Hi and Welcome to the forums..
Have you tried a 'One way Sync' coming from the device to the computer only?

How to add custom label to a new contact in address book which is synced with outlook account

Hello all,
My iPhone is synced with outlook account. When I tried to create a new contact,'Add Custom Label' option was missing. Is Apple provides any solution to handle this? Is there any documentation provided about this behavior?

The second script is working but if I need to change the link it will not allow me to edit or delete it in iCal on my desktop. The only way to edit it is to use the online iCal in me.com.
And the worst problem is that the url does not show up on my iPhone iCal. The iPhone version of iCal has limited features. So if I'm away from the office on my iPhone I still have the problem of having no link to my iCal appointment. I still end up having to use both iCal and Contacts as separate Apps.
I still dont understand why Apple wouldnt make these 2 Apps work together! It seems so obvious! thanks anyway.

I deleted a contact from my phone and it synced with all my other devices including my Mac. However, I have setup time machine and have many previous backups. Can I open or use a file in back ups to get my contact back? Where and which one? Thanks!

Its all in the question.
I have backups from months ago.
And ICLOUD deleted my contact from others devices.

Bring the Contacts window forward, then enter Time Machine and scroll back to a snapshot that includes the contacts you want to restore. Select the contacts and click the Restore button in the lower right corner of the screen.
If you don't have a Time Machine backup, but your contacts are all on iCloud and haven't been overwritten, then you can recover them by following the instructions on this page. Double-click the downloaded file to import it into Contacts. This procedure will not work if you've synced an empty Contacts database to iCloud.

Sorry for my english i'm spanish

I have not tried that...I will look up the process so that I can do it correctly (and still transfer all of my files, contacts, etc). Any suggestions? What is the advantage of restoring as a new device..is this more akin to a complete wipe of a hard drive?

definitely the battery wont be the problem.
The important thing is that the IPAD already can see the RAW files;)

TS1702 I'm not able to update Smurf's Village. Tried most of the things proposed on the net including restarting the iPad and trying syncing with the computer. Had a similar issue with another application. Had to delete and reinstall it, with all history

I'm not able to update Smurf's Village. Tried most of the things proposed on the net including restarting the iPad and trying syncing with the computer. Had a similar issue with another application. Had to delete and reinstall it, with all history lost.
Tried following up with the developer's instruction. Didn't help. Developer suggested contacting Apple if their instruction didn't work. Tried the various methods recommended on the Apple site. Same result.

Telling is that you tried most of the things on the net doesn't tell us exactly what you did try, so we are all still left to guess .....
Sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
Settings>Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Go back to Settings>Store>Sign in and then try to update again
If that doesnt work - go to Settings>General>Date and Time - set the date ahead by a few months. Try to update again. If you get an error message of any kind - go back and change the date and time to automatic again. Then try again.
If that doesn't work, restart your router and reboot the iPad.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

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
Jan .

On the iPhone, Settings > iCloud, contacts Off then back on.

TS4268 I have a new iphone on a new telephone number but I cannot delete the old one and the phone will not sync with the phone

Has anyone else had the same problem with a new phone and new telephone number?

I would delete all data from the phone and restore as new. I assume the phone is unlocked. Then I would get the SIM card from the carrier I want to use and activate the SIM with the carrier and po my phone number across. After that I would use the SIM card in the phone and activate the phone using iTunes, a computer and the setup assistant that will pop up in iTunes and you should be good to go. I don't know what you did when you got into the trouble you now have.

Hi all! Been given my bosses old iphone as a work phone. Need to keep his contacts on the phone and update my own(from previous non iphone phone). Ideas and Help PLEASE??

Hi all, I have recently been given a new work iphone. It was my bosses. He wants me to keep all his old contacts already on the iphone. However I will also need my old contacts from my own old phone(not iphone). I was wondering how I go about this?
This will be my first experience with iphones and so I know very little about them, however I am worried about itunes libraries. If I try to update my iphone software etc using itunes will I lose all my bosses contacts from the phone since I will obviously be using a new itunes library that is not his!
Sorry for the confusing nature of the this post. But any ideas, input or help will be greatly appreciately!

You'll need to restore your phone from the latest backup you made before he synced his phone.
To check if there is still a backup you can use, do this:
Open iTunes Preferences:
Windows: Choose Edit > Preferences.
Mac: Choose iTunes > Preferences.
Click Devices (the iOS device doesn't need to be connected).
iTunes will show the phone number, IMEI, and serial number of the backed up iPhone when you position your mouse pointer over a backup (iTunes shows only the serial number for iPad and iPod touch). You can use this to find the backup you want to use.
Then restore from that backup by following this article:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
Do the same with his device after that, using his old backup.
If you can't find one, set it up as new device without using any backup.

New C6-01 user/phone and problem with backup/resto...

Hello everyone.
I recently purchased a new C6-01 (and first-time Nokia owner) and having trouble with getting maps restored onto a new 32GB uSDHC card and need some help.
It is my understanding that I can backup and restore all my phone contents and settings to a new memory card using Nokia Suite. So what I did is performed a complete backup using Nokia Suite, ejected the old uSD card (that came with the phone), put in the new uSD card that I had purchased and format it, then performed a complete restore to the phone and the new memory card.
During the restore, I saw errors on the phone display that said something like disk write error and gave me the option of stop or retry. I hit the retry a few times and still getting the error. Thinking it may be a bad uSD card, I returned/exchanged for another identical one. With the 2nd new card, I still get the same error message so I rebooted the phone and ran restore again but this time instead of restore everything all at once, I selected a few items at a time and eventually got everything restored, at least without errors this time.
When I ran maps after the restore, it told me that I needed to download the maps, and when I tried to download it thru a WiFi connection (at my house), I keep getting Disk error - cannot complete write. Retry or data will be lost. At this point if I run Files, it will show drive E but not any free space number (and selecting it will show free space not available). A reboot will bring back drive E and show 29.4GB free. So I am completely stumped at this point and believe that for whatever the reason I can not get maps loaded onto a non-Nokia-provided memory card.
I am running Nokia Suite 3.5.34 on WIndows XP w/SP3. The new 32GB uSDHC card is a class 4 card made by Sandisk. The phone is running the Belle Refresh v111.040.1511 dated 7/28/2012. Map version: v3.09 12wk20 b01-MW OpenGL MN-Map version 0.2.46.103
Sorry for the large amount of information posted here, but I wanted to provide enough details for you to look at. Please feel free to ask for more information and thank you in advance for your help.
Bill

yes I reformatted the card, and after it was finished, I ran Maps. When it told me I need to download the maps (and gave me 3 options), I exited and connected the phone to my computer, browsed and deleted the cities folder and the qf file. Waited a little bit and reran Maps. This time I used the WiFi connection from the phone to download.
I gave me an error when I tried to download the entire USA maps, so I selected Texas and Pennsylvania state maps. Those downloaded ok. Next when I tried to download New Jersey, it started a little bit and the disk error message came up again so I hit stop. Ran Files and saw the memory card is grayed-out (did not indicate and free space), I know the same problem is happening again.

Iphone contact's phone number not synced with Outlook

Hi,
I have a contact with 4 phone numbers. That contact syncs with outlook in most cases (e. g. a change in a "note" is transfered both ways correctly).
But: The "private" phone number never shows up in Outlook.
I already reset the sync history.
Any other ideas are warmly appreciated!
Ulrich
PS. Itunes syncs with Outlook 2007

Well, I fixed it myself. In Outlook, I checked each appointment for a bad reminder time. My default time is 30 minutes. ONE entry showed 0 minutes. I changed it to 30, synced, and lo and behold, I have my calendar back! I can't believe that is all it took.

Problems syncing with Outlook after latest update to iphone

I just updated my iphone 4 with IOS 7 and now it won't sync with Outlook. I would greatly appreciate help in solving this issue.

I am having the same problem. I have edited my contacts in outlook and these edits are not being picked up on the iphone. Ill give you an example. I have removed all fax numbers in all of my contacts on my pc, in outlook. took me AGES. then I plugged my iphone in and two things happened (1) no changes were made to the contact on the iphone to mirror what i had changed in outlook (2) it seems as tho the fax numbers which were all stored on the phone are now all back in my outlook on my pc!
how do i make it so that when u sync NOTHING from my iphone goes onto my PC but only what i have changed on my PC goes onto my iphone???

Why build a phone that wont sync with outlook??

I know I can upload all my contact info to google as .csv, but why OH WHY did they design this thing that will not simply sync with my outlook calendar and contacts. Unbelievable. My iPad was seamless, flawless, simple.

Your premise is not true - the Razr (and any Android device) will sync with Outlook Calendar and Contacts. There are many different options depending on how you are using Outlook (personal pc, corporate exchange server, etc) and what and how you want to sync.
Here is a pretty complete list of software to sync Outlook and Exchange to an Android device. If you click on the software's title you will learn more about it and it often will show you how to set up the connection.
