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

  • Outlook 2010 using Windows XP - sync specific contact groups only

    Hi -
    I have an iPhone 4, and I sync it with specific contact groups (work and personal) in Outlook on two different PCs (work and personal) - which used to work. 
    I'm now usings iTunes 10.2.2.14 and it doesn't on my PC with XP which has Outlook 2010. Instead of syncing my specific folders, it tries to sync ALL of my contacts. 
    In iTunes, I click on Info < check the "Sync Contacts with" box < choose "Outlook < choose "Selected groups" < check the boxes for my specific folders (do not check the "Add contacts created outside of groups on this iPhone to:" box) < click apply and it starts to sync
    You're asked if you want to merge or replace, I click merge, and then it asks me if I want to change my 407 contacts - that's my entire contact list!  I don't want that in this computer's outlook ... I only want to sync the folders that I selected. 
    Note that this process does, however, work using the same iTunes version on my PC with Windows 7 and Outlook 2003.
    Help!  (and thank you)

    Exchange 2013 doesn't support MAPI RPC, it has to use RPC over HTTPS, a.k.a., Outlook Anywhere (or POP or IMAP, which are inferior) so it sounds like everything is working as designed.
    The password being rejected for Outlook Anywhere suggests that you have a configuration error.  Run this command:
    Get-OutlookProvider -identity EXPR | FL CertificatePrincipalName
    and make sure that this matches the CN of your certificate.  XP has a problem when it doesn't.  You can change it with Set-OutlookProvider if need be.

  • HT4915 How do you stop syncing address and calendar to iCloud? I only want to sync  from my computer to iPhone.

    How do you stop syncing address and calendar to iCloud? I only want to sync  from my computer to iPhone.  This is because I cannont upgrade to Lion and I do not want to get duplicate contacts when I sync from the computer 10.6.8 to my iPhone iOS5.  You should not upgrade to Lion upless you have 4GB of ram. Lion does not support rosita so all your old programs will not funtion and you have to repurchase all old software the is working fine.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Settings > iCloud, turn off contact and calendar syncing.

  • I want to sync iCloud contacts to google contacts, Is there a way?

    I want to sync iCloud contacts to google contacts on a regular basis, Is there a way?

    For a few reasons, I decided to use both services after thoroughly researching this same question about a year ago for myself.
    I use iCloud for my "Top 20" or so contacts.   Advantage is that I can sync more phone #'s per contact and get a full screen photo when they call.
    I use Google for everyone else.   And only the contacts in My Contacts group will get synched, so I can manage easily how many contacts are on my phone at any time.    Another advantage is that if iCloud ever goes down, or I lose my device, I can easily look up my contacts on a web browser (assuming Google is available 100% of the time)   If I move to another device down the road, all of my contacts can stay on Google.
    My google contacts is setup as an exchange account, so updates are pushed to the device as well.   Another advantage to this is that I can "lookup" any contact on my google account that is not part of My Contacts right on the device at will.
    The "Top 20" icloud contacts are also on Google, under its own group that doesn't sync with the device, just as a backup.

  • Deleted duplicate contacts from icloud and want to sync updated contacts to iphone and ipad?

    Can anyone help with this?
    Deleted duplicate contacts from icloud and want to sync updated contacts to iphone and ipad?  Did it on icloud cause have duplicates on ipad and iphone also

    Check icloud.com to be sure you contact list is correct there.  If it is, just go to Settings>iCloud on your device and turn Contacts to On to sync the contacts to your device.  If contacts are already set to On and you still see duplicates, you may be viewing a duplicate contact group in addition to the iCloud contacts.  Open Contacts, tap Groups, then tap any groups other than iCloud to uncheck them, then tap Done.  See if the duplicates are still there.

  • TS4036 what if i only want to restore my contact list from backup

    what if i only want to restore my contact list from backup

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    Firstly, you cannot selectively restore content from your iCloud backup. Secondly, your contacts are not part of your iCloud backup.

    You should have signed in with that address in the first place, but there is a workaround: go to System preferences>Mail, Contacts@ Calendars and add your @me.com address as an account there.

  • Mobile User, only want to sync documents folder, nothing else

    As the title suggests! I have a MB air and only want to sync my docs folder. In the WGM for mobile user I was there was just a simple set of buttons to allow common things! can anyone shed some light on what I need to add/subtract to get a perfect sync with only my docs
    thanks

    I'm relatively new to portable home directories, but if you let the user manage the preferences (i.e., leave WGM alone) when you login you should be able to select "Mobile Account Preferences" from the Home Sync icon on the toolbar (or System Preferences -> Accounts -> Mobile Account Settings) and then just change the options there to only sync Documents.

  • I only want to sync my iphone contacts with my pc, not the other way around

    HELP!! This thing is driving me crazy! I dont want to sync everything from the pc to the iphone, just what I have on the iphone to the pc to make those contacts and calendar entries safe in case the dreaded happens.
    Is there a way to do this? I have begun my 60day free trial of MoblieMe today and cannot seem to do this at all. I have found my Windows Contacts and I think I can enter people in there, but whats the point of that if I have to do all the work? Surely the point of syncing is that it will do it for me???
    Does anyone know if it can be done from iphone to pc??
    Many thanks
    Catherine

    The sync process for contact info and calendar events is a bidirectional or true sync process. You can't transfer only contact info and calendar events available on your iPhone only to the supported application on your computer. Contact info and calendar events available in the supported address book and calendar app on your computer and contact info and calendar events available on your iPhone will be synced so the info available on both is identical.
    If you have a MM account, you need to sync the supported address book on your computer with your MM online address book first. After confirming your MM online address book matches the supported address book on your computer, follow this by enabling over the air syncing for contact info with your MM account on your iPhone. This will erase all existing contact info on your iPhone and replace it with your MM online address book info, and the same for calendar events.
    If you have contact info available on your iPhone that is not available with the supported address book on your computer, you need to sync your iPhone's address book with the supported address book on your computer via the iTunes sync process first. Follow this by syncing the supported address book on your computer with your MM online address book. After confirming the supported address book on your computer matches your MM online address book, enable over the air syncing for contact info with your MM account on your iPhone. After this, your iPhone's address book will be kept synchronized with your MM online address book which is kept synchronized with the supported address book on your computer and vice-versa.

  • I only want to sync contacts and calendars with personal folders...

    Hi
    I really need some help if anyone can oblige. I've tried my best to sort things out but to no avail:
    So, I used to sync my iPhone contacts and calendars with my personal folders, which is the way I wanted it, and still do. Then, I temporarily had an Exchange account running as well as my personal mail. The phone automatically started syncing with the folders associated with the Exchange account.
    When I stopped using the exchange account and deleted it, the next time I synced my phone, ALL contacts and calendar entries disappeared - I presume as it was syncing with something that no longer existed. I was rescued by a year-old Plaxo backup - for contacts anyway -, otherwise I'd have been in a proper mess.
    Anyway.. the phone STILL wouldn't sync with personal folders despite there being no Exchange for a time, but now I have another (different) temporary Exchange account (this happens when I work longer-term with clients) and once again my phone is syncing with that.
    All I want is for my phone to always sync with my personal folders as it once used to do and all would be well with the world.
    If anyone can help, I would really really appreciate it.
    Many thanks!

    Sync the contacts with whatever cloud service you were syncing them with on your old phone.

  • What is the best practice to move from Outlook 2010 to icloud. I want to sync primarily contacts and calendars.

    I would like to move from Outlook 2010 (originally on Exchange) to icloud, however I read lots of bad experiences about this.  Has anyone developed a good practice procedure for this?  I primarily want to sync Outlook 2010 calendar and contacts with a cloud service and my iphone.  I currently use a Dell latitude PC, outlook 2010, have upgraded to iOS 5 on an iphone 3GS (soon to be an 4GS).

    I was trying to find the answer to this myself.
    I found it.
    Use iCloud Control Panel for Windows: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1455
    I found that you don't need to create separate iCloud contact and calendar folders before installing this, it does that for you (in fact, you can't choose what these new folders are called, or where they go, but I guess you're unlikely to have anything else in your Outlook named "iCloud" before you start.)

  • I want to sync my contacts without duplicating them with OS 10.6.8

    I have a problem. It seems that I cannot duplicate my contacts without duplicating them. What makes matters worse is that I am using OS 10.6.8, and the Icloud has never worked properly for me. I always wind up loosing the the ability to sync my calendar.
    At this time, I cannot up grade my OS with incurring the loss of programs I use everyday for my business due to incompatability issues.
    When ever I sync my contacts, they duplicate. I want to sync them, but I don't want to spend hours deleting the duplicates.
    Is there a way to do this?
    Thanks so much!!
    All best-

    use Migration Assistant and everything would work.  But it didn't transfer any of my applications.
    Just to be clear - you said "Migration Assistant", but did you really use "Migration Assistant" or rather "Setup Assistant"? When setting up a new Mac, you will be prompted after installing the system to transfer your data - and that would be the Setup Assistant. if you first create your account, and then transfer, you will be using "Migration Assistant". The  "Setup Assistant" is greatly preferable, since it will keep the identity of the user account.
    But it didn't transfer any of my applications.
    The Setup Assistant or Migration Asistant lets you choose what to transfer. DId you enable to transfer your applications?
    Is your old mac a Power PC? If your applications are still PowerPC applications, they cannot run on a Mavericks system.  Try to update as many of your applications as possible to universal binary versions, that can run on Intel macs, before you migrate them to your new Mac.  Aperture 3.1.2 will not still not run on Mavericks, even if it is a univaersal binary, but if you get it transferred and installed on your new Mac, you can update it to 3.5.1.
    And before transferring your Aperture library, repair it using the First Aid Tools. See the Aperture Release Notes http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2518

  • My old computer crashed and i lost everything from contacts too music. i have a new labtop and want to sync my contacts and music and apps over to itunes without everything being erased. what is the easiest way to do that?

    My old computer crashed and i lost everything that was on itunes and on the computer contacts music etc. i want to get the new iphone but the 3gs i have has not been sync with the new computer & I don't want to loose or have everything erased on my phone just want to put everything that's on my phone to new computer. what the most uncomplicated way to do that?

    No.
    All iTunes content on your iPod Touch should be in your iTunes library on your computer, and your iTunes library on your computer should be included with your computer's backup along with all other important data - stored on an external drive or some other external media used for backup purposes only.
    When music was purchased on a CD, if the CD was lost and you returned to the store where the CD was purchased with your receipt, were you given a replacement CD?
    The same applies here.
