Nothing in my "Sync Contacts with" list

I recently noticed that my contacts were not being sync. On investigation,I see that my Sync Contact with list is empty and so is the Sync calendars list and also the sync e-mail account. I am sure it is something it have done as it was working until a few days ago. Any ideas anybody?

Welcome to the forums
You have a few options available to you to make this easier. Depending on your desktop manager version and your computer's OS, you can import/sync contacts with the applications in this kb article: http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB14730
Google sync can also do the same, but it is not included in the list. You need a google account and have to download the google sync app.
Hope that helps.

How do I stop Google from attempting to sync contacts with my iMac?

Hey folks, i'm new to Mac and keep getting this annoying sync notice that if I allow Google Contants to sync it will change pretty much all my contacts. First off, I'm not really sure what contacts it's trying to sync with. Is it trying to sync with my iCloud contacts? i don't think i have any contact info saved on my hard disk. Second, i have searched the discussion threads about this topic and see posts saying i need to go to Address Book > Preferences > and uncheck Google Sync....but the only Address Book i am aware of is the app labeled "Contacts" which holds everything from my iCloud account. Is Address Book a separate app/database?

I don't know if this helps much, but Address Book was basically the same application in a previous version of the Mac OS. Folks still seem to use the terms interchangably though. Similarly, Calendar used to be "iCal."
I believe syncing contacts with Google or iCloud is an either/or proposition - you can't do both. When you sync with either, a copy is saved to your Mac for faster access (like a web browser's cache). I believe there's still an option to save contacts exclusively to your Mac (HD), but I don't think it's either preferred or occurs by default if you have an account such as Gmail/google or iCloud already set up.
I've never played with preferences in Contacts (Address Book), but I do have both google and iCloud accounts associated with my Mac. Under System Preferences:Mail, Contacts & Calendars, you can specify what accounts do on your Mac. If you have multiple accounts set up, a list will appear on the left side. As you select each one, a list of check boxes appear to the right for each service you want to associate with that account. For example, I have an iCloud account for mail, calendars, contacts, and Safari (among others). I have a Gmail account for mail, although it gives me the option of using this account for calendars, etc. For Gmail, the only item I have checked is mail. It's never asked me if I wanted to sync my addresses with Google.
I hope this helps... at least a little. If nothing else, I hope I've solved the "Address Book" mystery ;-)

I hate Apple maps, will Marvericks give me option to sync contacts with google maps?

Will Mavericks let me sync contacts with google maps or require sync to Apple Maps as does i0s7. I hate Apple maps.

I have exactly the same issue. I updraged my iphone4 to iOS 5.0.1 and iTunes to version 10.5.2.11. I'm also running Windows7, but 32bit.
And I can also confirm this used to work both ways.
Good thing is that the iTunes backup and restore kept the new iPhone contacts on my device during the upgrade. But they are still not syncing to google.
So the bad news is that its broken and has been for some time now.
anyone?

Outlook 2011 problem syncing contacts with address book

I am aware that Lion has broken the sync ability of Outlook 2011 with Address Book. Hopefullly this will be fixed at some point.
So my problem is that I have decided to use a workaround to get my Address Book contents into Outlook 2011. I am not concerned with further syncing at this point. I just want to get my addresses into Outlook and hope a better fix is offered at some point.
About the only way I could figure out how to do this was to export my Address Book as vCard. I then imported the vCard file into Gmail and then exported that as a CSV file. It contained 550 addresses. I opened it in Excel and it contained 550 rows. Great so far.
I then Imported into Outlook 2011 and chose import a text file. When the mapping window opened, it showed over 890 files instead of 550 and the fields were not mapped correctly. I could not complete the import because it was so screwed up.
So I'm back to square one and very frustrated. There must be others who have the same issue and maybe have figured out a way to do this. Please help.

Synced contacts with PC and shouldnt have - how to remove

I recetnly synced on my PC and had the sync contacts with outlook checked, and should not have. Now my iPhone shows a group of contacts titled "On my PC" above the group now labeled "On MobileMe". MobileMe is my contacts and calendar that i sync with. Is there a way to remove this group "On My PC" from my iphone?
Thanks
Mike

OK, first you're on the Windows forum so we can't really help you with a Mac.
Second save the backup, wipe, and start over is the correction and it's a pain.
Even if you have to do it one entry at a time you can get it all back.

Can't sync contacts with Blackberry phone after migration to iCloud

Can't sync contacts with Blackberry phone after migration to iCloud. The only way to do is to have a local copy of address book. What else can I do (before BB will fix the bug)?

Ah! This explains why I have been tearing my hair out for the past 24 hours trying to get my contacts from Address Book to my new BB Torch!
I found a workaround for a one-time sync:
1. go into Address Book prefs and temporarily change Default account from iCloud to On My Mac (this makes the "All on My Mac" category visible)
2. Go back into your contacts window, select all of your contacts, and copy them to All on My Mac (this will create duplicates of everything)
3. Sync the BB.
3. Return to prefs to change default account back to iCloud, and select all the contacts in All on My Mac and delete them, thereby removing all duplicates.
This solution only works for a one-time sync and needs to be repeated for future syncs.
Let's hope BB comes up with an iCloud compatible update ASAP!

HT1296 Unable to Sync Contacts with Computer

I am having problems with my attempts to upload the Contacts in my iPhone, to my PC/laptop. I'm following a guide which contains screen grabs, but my screen doesn't look like what is shown and so I cannot proceed as I wish to.
I have no option to select 'Sync Contacts With' as the screen I am taken to under the Options Menu has a heading that says Sync Contacts with a box underneath that says:
Your contacts are being synced with your iPhone over the air from Cloud
Over-the-air sync settings can be changed on your iPhone
There are no boxes to check, whatsoever.
Can anyone help with this, please?
Thanks

You can only sync contacts with one source. You are currently synching with iCloud, so if you want to sync with your computer you will have to turn off iCloud sync.

Syncing contacts with groups from Torch to Mac

We have a BlackBery Torch, the latest operating system for Apple (OSX Lion), the latest update of BlackBerry Desktop software and the latest update on the Torch.
When we perform a sync from the Torch, it syncs all contacts but without the groups. How do you sync contacts with groups? To clarify, the contacts are in groups on the BlackBerry.
Thanks!

Anyone ever experience syncing contacts with groups on a Mac?

Sync contacts with N70

Hello there,
I can syncronise my N70 data (Contacts, notes,...) using "Nokia PC sync" without any problem. However, when I open "Nokia phone browser" from "My Computer" and then choose my phone from the list and then I click on "Contacts" and choose to update my contacts, I get an error message telling me "PC Sync has encountered a problem and has terminated the synchronisation".
It is strange as when I update "Messages" from the "phone browser" I do not get any error and it completes without any problem.
This is the only sync problem that I have. Do anyone have a solution for this issue?
Thank you.

When I use "PCSuite's synchronize" app to synchronize with Outlook, It does not return any error. Actually, it synchronizes contacts with outlook without any problem. The problem appears first when I use explorer to synchronize the contacts. When I click on synchronize on the toolbar of explorer, a window appears showing that it is trying to sync, nothing happens on the phone except Bluetooth icon appears like it sends data, and finally the results window opens showing a warning: "PC Sync has encountered a problem and has terminated the synchronization".
I don't know if it writes also a log file on the hard and if yes, where can I find the log file.Message Edited by zerocode on 23-Feb-2006
