New created contacts in iPhone are stored in MS Exchange account instead of iCloud account

Using iPhone with iCloud accounts, and MS Exchange account ( with contact sync ON )
When create a new contact in the phonebook, the created contact are saved in Exchange account instead of Apple iCloud account
I do not wanna turn off the contact sync in Exchange account because this will make me unable to search in mailing list stored in the server.
This happened when you create new contact using "Log" screen (i.e. create a contact from a previous dailed number )
I just wanna make Apple iCloud account the default account for new contacts
Any idea how ?
Thanks

You're welcome. If your exchange contact list is fairly static, I can give you instructions for how to copy them to your iCloud account if your interested. This would allow you to disable contact syncing with exchange, eliminating this issue. If you want to do this, just reply back.

Creating Contacts on iPhone

When creating contacts on iPhone there is no way of entering countries that are not on the standard list of countries.
F.e. in South America, there is only Argentina, Brazil and Mexico. There is no way of putting country names in as a free text field.
I do see that if you sync the addressbook, contacts created on the mac or PC with different countries are brought over with the correct countries, however I cannot create contacts from say Chile on the run.
Anyone has a solution for that?

If you touch the left side of the telephone number field, you get a drop down Label from which you can select the type of number it is to be.

Contacts created with Lotus notes are not seen in Exchange 2007 SP3 Rollup 7.

Contacts created with Lotus notes are not seen in Microsoft Exchange 2007 SP3 Rollup 7. the same is seen in Microsoft Exchange 2010 without issues.
when we create a new contact on Microsoft Exchange 2007, the contacts gets created but it is not seen unless we filter the EMC to list the contacts. Microsoft Exchange 2010 does not have any issues.
any help or inputs will be appreciated.
Thanks,
Sid

You shouldn't be using the 2007 EMC or cmdlets to create new objects if you have a more recent release installed in your organization. Use the 2010 software.
If you create the mail-enabled contact with the 2010 EMC or cmdlets do you see it in the 2007 EMC?
When you say the contact "is not seen unless we filter the EMC to list the contacts", does that mean you don't see the contact when you're looking at the "Recipient configuration" container? Is there a default filter on that container? Do you have a limit
on the number of objects shown?
As for the objects created by 3rd-party software (Lotus), are they creating the contacts correctly?

Hi, My recent trip pics on my iphone are more than 30 days old and my icloud photo sharing had been turned off. How do I now share them to my PC which is on the icloud photo sharing? I want to save/print these once shared to my PC. Help?

That list includes all the apps that you installed to your device directly from iTunes on the computer, or which were purchased on the iOS device and subsequently transferred to iTunes on the computer.
If you right click on any item in that list and choose "Show in Windows Explorer" it will open your iTunes application installer directory on your computer, which should be:
C:\Users\User\Music\iTunes\iTunes Media\Mobile Applications
In there are all your saved application installers (*.ipa files). You need to delete those actual installer bundles and then make sure to NOT allow the "transfer purchased content" when you sync or backup in iTunes (as that will just put them back on your hard drive).
One caveat to removing those, is that if you ever wish to keep a specific release of a particular app, and the developer replaces the iTunes/App store version with something else, your sole source for your older version will be your own stored copy of it. So for example, when PDF expert released their iOS 7 update, and charged everyone full price for it, if you wished to keep using the previous version on your own devices, then you needed to keep a copy of the installer on your own computer as that older version is no longer available in the store front.

Notes from iPad and iPhone are not being synced to my Mac with iCloud

I have been really hesitant to even use iCloud, but i just started to try to use it yesterday - and my Notes from my iPad and iPhone are not being synced together, and both Notes from my iPhone and iPad are not even being seen to my Mac.
What am i doing wrong with this?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
First check that all your settings are correct, that notes syncing (mail and notes on a computer) is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
Make sure the notes you are adding are added to your 'iCloud' account and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud account (you can do this by checking in accounts on an iOS device, or the left side panel in mail on a computer), non iCloud notes will not sync.
If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your notes are in the iCloud group, you might try unchecking notes syncing (mail and notes on a computer) in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling notes syncing.

New/Updated contacts on iPhone 4 not syncing to iMac Address Book

Greetings,
My problem:
When syncing my iPhone 4 with iTunes 10, iTunes will sync contacts FROM my iMac to the iPhone. It will not sync new or changed contacts from the iPhone TO my iMac (no two-way syncing).
Further background:
I recently had Apple replace my hard drive and restored from a Time Machine backup. Everything is working properly except this.
What I'm using:
* iPhone 4 w/ iOS 4.1 (latest)
* iMac 2.4 GHz Intel running OS X 10.5.8
* iTunes 10.1 (54)
Example:
If I create a new contact on my iMac, it syncs with the iPhone as expected.
On the iPhone, If I edit the contact originally created on the iMac and re-sync, the changes do NOT sync back to my iMac.
If I create a new contact on my iPhone, it does not sync with Address Book.
What I've tried so far that has not worked:
1.) Unchecked and re-checked "Sync Address Book Contacts" in iTunes (one-way syncing works fine)
2.) Used the "Replace information on this iPhone" for Contacts within iTunes (contacts from iMac overwrite iPhone as expected)
3.) I had a trial MobileMe subscription that I cancelled months ago.
Went into the iPhone > Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > deleted the MobileMe account, keeping existing data on my iPhone.
4.) Unchecked "Sync Address Book Contacts"
* Went to /users/[username]/Library/Application Support/AddressBook, deleted AddressBook-v22.abcddb and /Images
* Went to iSync app > Preferences > Reset Sync History
* Verified new addressbook and /Images folder were created
* Re-checked "Sync Address Book Contacts"
* Performed another sync using iTunes
(One-way sync works fine)
5.) Deleted all Address Book entries
* Unchecked "Sync Address Book Contacts"
* Went to /users/[username]/Library/Application Support/AddressBook, deleted AddressBook-v22.abcddb and /Images
* Went to iSync app > Preferences > Reset Sync History
* Verified new addressbook and /Images folder were created
* Re-checked "Sync Address Book Contacts"
* Performed another sync using iTunes
Can anyone offer some suggestions? I have my address book backed up, but I'd really like to be able to perform a two-way sync from my iPhone to my iMac's Address Book.
Thanks,
Rob

No need for apologies! Yes, it was checked. Looks like I have solved the problem now and it was something very basic - in the preferences of Contacts on the iMac. Looks like it's all synced now. Thanks for replying!

TS3398 I have lost my contacts that were entered into my iphone in addition to those that are synced from my exchange account. Iphone is only showing email addresses, no contacts with phone numbers.

Two days ago my phone locked up and when I could access again, my contact list was only a few names and email addresses. ALL phone numbers wiped from the phone. I have been using google sync for three years to sync contact and calendar to gmail and then sync gmail to iphone, and it has been seemless. I would think this was the problem, however the contacts and phone numbers that were added directly the phone are no longer on the phone either....which point to a phone problem.
I went home, to update but ended up having to "restore" from backup, which I did. The contacts were visible for less than 24 hours, but then disappeared again the next day. I have tried forums for google sync as that would solve a large amount of the contacts, but I still can't seem to find a solution for the other contacts added directly to the phone.
are there any new glitches/issues with the iOS 6 that cause this problem?
phone is 3GS.
thanks.

Do the numbers still exist in your google contacts?
Google recently terminated support for new configurations of gmail using Exchange Active Sync for unpaid accounts. In theory, existing configurations will continue to work, but there have been some problem reports.
I've seen several mentions of the problem you describe in the last few days and so far, they've gone unresolved as far as I can tell. The root cause may be in google's termination of AES support.
Facebook contact sync may also be a suspect.

The last time i synced/backed-up, my contacts on iphone are gone and address book is empty. how can i get them back?

i have an old mac book os x version 10.4.11 and an old iphone 3g. i've never had a problem syncing and backing up before, but the last time i did, it deleted my contacts on my iphone and my phone/address book entries on my mac book. any suggestions on how i can re-create? and, why would it have "deleted" my info this time? thank you for your help!!

OK. I signed into my Icloud account on my computer and just the basics
were there. My contacts, calendar. find my phone. No picture Icon.
In reading I had to Photo stream from my camera roll. It sounds like I
should just backup everything to Itunes in the future which saves everything.
I have a new device and will try to restore.
Thanks.

All numbers in my contacts on iPhone are gone

Last night I was out, and noticed that all the names of people in my recent calls listed had turned into numbers and all my text messages no longer had names associated with them, just phone numbers. Did a reset of the phone. Didn't help. Called Apple this morning, and they had me restore from an iCloud backup from a few days ago before the problem started. This also did not help. Not sure what's going on, but it appears that Facebook may have overwritten the information for all of my contacts and only people's numbers that are public on facebook are showing up on my contacts list?
Interestingly, when I restored from backup the first time, only 5 out of the 100s of contacts I previously had reappeared in my phone. The new contacts were people I have never heard of and am not friends with on Facebook either. Very, very strange.
iPhone 5 on iOS 6.

Were you not synching your iPhone contacts with an app on a computer as designed? If not, they're most likely gone.
Now would be a good idea to read the User Guide and review how contacts are meant to be maintained so this doesn't happen to you again.

HT1349 im not using my regular computer - it's in storage- will I lose all the bookmarks, contacts etc that are stored on that computer?

I cannot get to my regular computer as it is in storage, and therefore cannot back anything up. If I change over to icloud using someones else's computer will I lose all bookmarks, contacts and all things on the computer in storage?

You have a question for the iCloud support folks, I would imagine.
We handle questions about the Time Capsule, AirPort Extreme and AirPort Express in this area. If you have a question about one of those products.....we can probably help.

Applications on IPAD and IPHONE are not coming in to my MacBookPro via ICloud?

IPAD and IPHONe 4S apps, as appropriate, are present on both devices via ICloud however new MacBookPro, while ICloud enabled, does not receive any apps present on IPAD and IPHONE...is this the way it is or have I not done something to bring in the apps to my MacBook?

The Apps that you are trying to synch, were they already on your iPhone and iPad when you purchased your Macbook Pro? Existing Apps won't synch automatically, only new apps that are downloaded AFTER you set up your Macbook Pro on iCloud. After verifying iClous setup and settings, try downloading a brand new app and see if it synchs to all of your devices.
The apps on your mobile devices can still be put on your Mac, you will just need to manually download them from the App Store on your MB Pro.

Creating Custom fields which are sales org dependent in Accounts Master

Hello Experts,
I want to create new custom fields in Accounts Master for sales and shipping.The component being used is BP_SALES.However when I try to create custom fields through AET, the new fields are added in the BUILHEADER context node.The problem with this is, its making the fields Sales Org independent.
I want to add the fields which are sales org dependent( i.e. want to add the fields for the context nodes BUILSHIPPINGTERMS and BUILSALESARRANGEMENT).
Please help me in this regards,
Thanks and Regards,
Rahim
Edited by: Abdul Rahim on Dec 27, 2010 9:55 AM

Hi Rahim,
in general extension fields for Business Partner are only supported for the header fields (Table BUT000). Therefore the AET does not offer this.
Table extension for BP sales data is supported by the AET beginning from CRM 7.0 eHP1. If you have this you can just create a 1:1 table enhancements and should be happy. If not I'm afraid that you would have to implement this manually.
Using the Easy Enhancement Workbench (EEW) it would only be possible to create table extensions for the header and for relation ship but not for sales data.

Help: New owner of my iPhone getting prompted for my iTunes account.

My wife is now using my old computer and iPhone 3g.
1. In iTunes on the PC, she is logged in.
2. iTunes says she has one app to upgrade.
3. Clicking upgrade, iTunes then shows her account name and says there are no apps to upgrade.
4. Go back to iTunes home page and it says she has one app to upgrade.
5. My account is actually the account with 1 app to upgrade.
1. On the iPhone, under settings she is listed as the current account.
2. Try to buy an app from the app store and she gets prompted for my App store account.
Has anyone seen this before? I'm at a loss as to how the two accounts are intermingled like this. Everywhere I look she is listed as the active account. But as soon as an upgrade or purchase is attempted it goes back to my account.
Thank you in advance,
Gary

You can do this on your iPad or iPhone - please see Find My iPhone Activation Lock: Removing a device from a previous owner’s account - Apple Support (which is written from the point of view of the new owner).
