Only some addresses synced into Contacts

I have tried everything in this list associated with Contacts. I am still only getting some of the entries from my Address Book on my "Big Mac". How can I get the rest of them?

It is a bit late .. but this really works

  • My iphone 3G has worked fine via bluetooth with my BMS 3 series (57 plate) until I updated to V.5.0.1 software and now only some but not all contacts are transferred - any ideas?

    My iphone 3G has worked fine via bluetooth with my BMS 3 series (57 plate) until I updated to V.5.0.1 software and now only some but not all contacts are transferred and available - any ideas?

    Rodger,
    Thank you for your gracious welcome . . .
    and thank you for your swift response . . .
    and thank you for your information (and encouragement!).
    Yes, I read that too, but searched in vain for the specifity of, say, your direction:
    "Go ahead and update to 8.0.2, as it contains the 8.0.1 update."
    So I shall!
    Again, many thanks.

  • Contacts only some will sync

    I have Icloud turned on on my Iphone, Ipad, macbook pro, and Imac. Only some of my contacts will sync. Please Help.

    No other groups on My Imac. Shows that icloud is the default account.
    Now go to www.icloud.com and verify that the contacts match what is shown on your iMac.
    Question, where did you look to see which account was the default? it's not on the Group view page?

  • Only some music syncing?

    Hi, I’ve recently had a problem syncing my iPad with music I already have on iTunes (some purchased from ITunes and some not, built up over the years). I want to have all my music (the ones ticked in iTunes) on the iPad but it just doesn’t seem to be transferring them across, with only some of them now appearing on my iPad?
    Not sure why? This has only happened recently, not sure whether this is as a result of updating to IOS 8.02 on the iPad?
    I've already tried deleting all music from the iPad and reloading from my PC, but it still keeps happenening?
    Any thoughts.

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Unsync all music and resync
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:       
    iOS: How to back up           
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

  • Only some photos syncing from iPhone '09 to iPhone 3GS now

    To troubleshoot, I only checked boxed a single album of about 250 photos to sync to iPhone.  When I do the sync only some photos within the album sync - some but not all.  Same with other photos albums too.  Does not matter if album is regular or "smart".  Never has this issue before now.  Lack of free space on iPhone is not the issue.
    Rebuilt the iPhoto library by holding Command + Alt at launch and tried most of the options.  No luck.  Then tried all six check boxes in iPhoto.
    I'm using...
    OS X Lion 10.7.1
    iPhone 3GS with iOS 4.3.5
    iPhoto '09 (8.1.2)
    iTunes 10.4.1
    I must be missing something basic (I hope).  Anyone know what's going on here?

  • I have outlook on my pc.  Just noticed when I plug in the iPad, only some things sync and go on my calendar on the iPad. Is there a setting to be turned on?

    Only some items are showing up on the iPad calendar.
    Is there as setting to be changed so that all items go onto my iPad calendar?

    Sounds like some of your CDs are ones where the main artist asks their friend to sing a song with them?
    Such as, Slash's new album. Track 1 is "Slash Feat. Ian Astbury", track 2 is "Slash Feat. Ozzy Osbourne" and so on.
    To fix this, select all the tracks on that album, right-click > Get Info, and say YES to changing multiple items.
    Put "Slash" in the *Album Artist* field (for this example, of course).
    Make sure it is the *Album Artist* field, not the plain Artist field.

  • Only some iMessages sync between Macbook Air and iPhone?

    Not sure what the deal is.  I've been iMessaging a friend of mine on my phone for a couple days and the phone messages are all still there, but only a few of the messages synced with my Macbook once I started using it to message her.  I have a couple more convos that have been exclusively on my phone, the last message showing on the Macbook is three days old even though I've messaged them on my phone since then.  I've tried logging in and out of iMessage on both devices, not sure what to do about it.

    Associate your mobile number with your Apple ID, if you haven't already done so.
    Sign out of iMessage on the Mac:
              Messages ▹ Preferences ▹ Accounts ▹ Sign out
    and on the iPhone:
              Settings ▹ Messages ▹ Send & Receive ▹ Apple ID ▹ Sign out
    Then, on the phone, tap
              Use Your Apple ID for iMessage
    Sign back into iMessage on both devices and test. If there's no change, you may have to wait for a change in network conditions.

  • Only want to sync specific contacts on Motorola V551

    I have a Motorola V551. Since it's navigation blows I don't want to have to scroll through all my contacts. So, I want to sync to a specific "Group" in my addressbook.
    I have set that option in my preferences (Synchronize -> Group Name), but when I sync my phone, all my contacts are sync'd, not just that group.
    I have tried resetting the phone and syncing, but it does the same thing.
    Help.

    this fixed my problem
    Thank you

  • Only some photos sync from iPhone to iPad?

    Over a 3 day period I took a dozen photos with my IPhone 4( w/ ios6).   All are on my camera roll although 2 transferred to my iPad ( new, also with ios6).   The same two show in Photo Stream on my phone.  On the iPad nothing shows in my photos but the same 2 show in photo stream.  One photo, taken a couple of minutes of the other two did not come through.  None of the ones from two days earlier are anywhere on the iPad???

    But, for part of the photos, three were taken within a few minutes of one another with the iPhone on continuously.  Only 2 of the 3 went through.  Of the several from the previous day, none went through???    Marc 

  • Find Friends won't show names, only email addresses and Contacts out of sync

    Find Friends recently began to show only email addresses but no contact names. It used to show the names. Not sure what has changed. Messages works fine at showing names, however.
    Also, some of my contacts in Contacts don't show up on my iPhone. Not aware of any syncing problems otherwise. Any ideas on what ot check and how to fix? Thanks.

  • Sync added contacts from iPhone to Address Book

    As I am out and about I add new contacts on my iPhone. But when I sync with my Mac they are ignored. This contrasts with other mobile phone suppliers who do a 'sync merge' as standard updating both the phone and PC with added and amended contacts since the last sync. How can I get iTunes to execute this most basic of functions?

    I posted earlier today, asking how to get my contacts to sync both ways, or IF they can sync both ways, but so far, no one has replied. I updated my contacts on my imac (10.6.7) and when I try and sync my iphone4, it tells me if I go forward with the sync, it will effect at least 25% of my contacts on my computer, so the iphone, with the older contacts, is going to overwrite those in my address book on my mac. 
    I have been searching other posts to see if I can find the answer, and found this post here.  So I am wondering if resetting the sync history would help me?  I went to isync and clicked on it but the message is a bit unclear, to me anyway ;-)   It sounds like resetting the isync history will cause me to loose some information?  Can you clarify?  Or help me sort out how to get the updated contacts from my mac's address book into contacts on my iphone4?

  • Help with iCloud contacts. Need to bring in only one particular group of contacts into an iPad 2.

    I have just updated an iPad 2 which belongs to my father but which has always synced with my Macbook. On my mac, I have set up a "group" of his own contacts, but since upgrading to iOS 5 it keeps pulling in my entire contacts list. I have tried turning off "Contacts' on the iPad's icloud menu, but it has removed all of my father's contacts and when I plug the device into the Macbook and try to sync the way I always had been, it won't let me just sync particular groups, I can only choose to sync "all" contacts. Does anyone know how to make the Macbook, itunes sync allow me to pick and choose what groups of contacts I want on this device?
    Any help appreciated.

    you can go back to sync with itunes 10.5 just like you did in iOS4 before.
    If you want to continue your use/sync of iCloud Email ( most users want their @me.com ) :
    On Mac Lion go  -> System Settings -> icloud , leave only the wanted sync options active, like Mail, turn off Adressbook sync plus all other unwanted items.
    Power on your iOS device, tap "Settings" -> icloud and set it up to match exactly the same items like for the Mac.
    Then on your next connection of the device to iTunes on Mac, you can select the various items that shall be managed using iTunes sync and not the cloud. Adressbook is under the "Info(rmation)" section.

  • Cannot sync iphone contacts

    When switching contact sync to Yahoo or Google from iCloud, did not see any sync done.
    When switching contact to a new Outlook account with no contact for testing, can see 88 email addresses sync into Outlook, all without any phone numbers. What went wrong??? How do I get the contacts in iphone out into Outlook, Yahoo or Google so that I can sync those contacts into other phones???

    Switching the default account is only helpful for new contact, and does nothing to sync existing contact located in the iCloud group.
    Anyway, I have found a solution by using iDrive: http://www.idrive.com/online-backup-download.htm
    Thanks for responsing.

  • ITunes won't sync my contacts and calendars

    Hello all,
    I'm having some trouble syncing my contacts and calendars to my iPod, because iTunes say's it doesn't have any available, and then it asks me to open that application.
    This started after I forcibly shut down my computer.
    I've tried replacing the information by deleting all of my contacts and calendars, and restoring using the Backup application, and I still got the same message asking me if I wan't to open iCal/Address Book.
    Any solution will be appreciated.

    2.0 GHz Intel Core Duo MacBook; 5.5G black iPod 30GB   Mac OS X (10.4.8)   Hard Drive: 60 GB; RAM: 512 MB

    The most likely solution is to launch iSync
    application ,and then in the preferences menu, click
    on Reset Sync History button. This resets
    configurations for the iTunes iPod sync process that
    is dependent on the iSync system database system.
    Is this the only way to do this? I am sic and tired of reseting my sync data as .Mac seams to have plenty of it's own issues. I use several computers Two for work and an extra at the office and one extra at home that I would have to then on the next sync accept all of the diolog boxes to get the most recent sync data on each computer. What a pain in the ... Not something that I want to do again as I have done it about 4+ times in the last month.

  • I added a contact to my iphone 4s and when I did a sync manually it is not showing up on my MAC in address book - please help....I checked off sync all contacts in iTunes  - does it only work one way from computer to phone?

    Is it because the new itunes looks different.

    Then it should work just the same as on your old computer.
