Not necessarily if your username is available in both Nokia account & Share on Ovi you can obviously create two identical username/password pairs. But you need to register separately to both of them.
I actually red from another forum (I think it was Symbian freak or guru)that Nokia has plans to merge the user databases. Let's hope for the best..

Also, my other tablet - Samsung TabS - has same issue - calendar wont sync. My IPhone and my desktop (windows) synch just fine.
Google calendar syncs on all devices. Totally stumped. Ideas anyone?
THANKS

1.      Log onto Outlook Web Access
2.      Top right hand part of the screen select "Options"
3.     Select "See All Options"
4.      Select "Phone" menu
Check if you have 10 Devices registered.
If you have, you need to delete one of them to add your new Smart Phone to Exchange for synching
Check the "Last Sync Time" to indicate if this device is still active or not.

Syncing iPad with Google Contacts

I have my iPad syncing to Google contacts, which works fine. But I went into Contacts on my iPad and added pictures to a lot of my contacts. When I synced my iPad, most of them disappeared. How do I prevent this from happening?

Thanks Meg, this works, at least in part. Now the Contacts app populated, but only with 99 contacts, hardly all of them. Do you know how to get all my Google contacts to sync?
Also, should I delete the Gmail account I had previously set up on the iPad now that I have set up as an Exchange account?

Sync iCloud with windows contacts

I am upgrading from MobileMe to iCloud in windows 7, w/ MobileMe I sync with my Windows contacts not with Outlook contacts (I can't stand bloated outlook app). I don't see this option in iCloud - does this mean Apple is not supporting syncing iCloud with Windows Contacts? If so I am very disappointed in Apple.
thanks,
dan

You're correct, Outlook is the only supported client for Windows, and I agree with your assesment of Outlook. There is an usupported alternative in eMClient, which does look a lot like Outlook but is simpler and snappier.
Setup is manual, mail is easy as are contacts and calendars, if you want to try it post back and I'll look for the server address information.

Its a easy fix,it will take too much time to type out all of the steps,
Check your email account. see if they are their, You can then import them on your DAV card, The best thing to is add them to icoud then they will be safe.
Apple support can talk you through it.

I upgraded my iphone to 5.0.1 and ever since, it has decided to delete old text messages. Only with one contact though, not everybody. So for every new text message I send this person, an old one gets removed. Why? I don't want this to happen.

Connect the phone directly to the computer, not a hub.
Disconnect all other USB devices except keyboard and mouse.
Disable your firewall
Disable your antivirus
In iTunes if it recognizes the phone click "Restore"
If it doesn't recognize the phone:
Disconnect the phone from the phone end, leave the USB cable plugged into the computer
Hold the HOME and SLEEP buttons until the screen turns black, excactly 10 seconds, then release the SLEEP but continue holding the HOME (If an Apple logo appears you have held SLEEP too long; do it over)
While holding HOME connect the cable to the phone
As soon as iTunes recognizes the phone release the HOME button and it should restore.
If neither procedure works note the exact error message and post it.

Sync only selected contact groups via Bluetooth to Mercedes Benz

Hi
I understand that it is possible to create "groups" of contacts in the address book program on my MacBook Pro and then choose to sync either all or just selected groups to my iphone.
If I do sync all of these groups to my iphone (which I want) is it then possible to sync only "one" group (just the essential numbers) to my Mercedes via bluetooth?
Thanks
Gregg

I am wondering the same thing.
I have the iPhone and a Mercedes Benz, with the Bluetooth v60 Puck. The car will only receive 100 contacts but I have no way of knowing which 100 will be uploaded.
If anyone has any suggestions I would appreciate it.

Syncing to selected contact group wants to delete files outside of it

Hello -
I am trying to sync my iPhone contacts to my address book in a specific way. In my address book, I have my personal contacts - friends and family. I also have mailing list subscribers (which gets into the 1,000s - people with whom I am not personally connected). I copied all of my personal contacts into a separate group and selected that group under the iPhone sync options in iTunes. I also checked the box marked "add contacts created outside of groups in this iPhone to" and again chose the special "personal contacts only" group.
However, when I go to actually sync, I get a pop-up box saying that so many contacts will be added (to my laptop), so many contacts will be modified, and so many contacts will be deleted. Which ones are getting deleted? All the ones that are not on my phone, so basically all of my mailing list, non-personal contacts.
Isn't the point of syncing specific contact groups so that you can have your phone dialogue with that particular folder and nothing else - leaving anything outside of that folder alone?
Just to test it out though, I changed the sync setting to "all contacts" to see what would happen, and I get the same message (it's basically going to delete anything that's on my laptop, but not currently on my phone). Why does this happen? Isn't the whole idea of synchronization that the two devices end up having the same file lists? How can I get the iPhone to populate any contacts I added on it to a specific group on my laptop, and vice versa. Seems like they should populate each others lists with missing pieces, rather than one taking the other one over and deleting, well, anything (unless I tell it to).
And no, I do not have any of the advanced overwrite functions enabled.
Does anybody have a solution to this problem? I'd like to sync my contacts, but obviously don't need 2,000 names of people I don't personally know taking up space on my phone.
Thanks for any advice you all can provide!

I think MobileMe is all or nothing--I asked a chat agent a few months back, and that was the case, haven't seen any reports or UI changes.
Send them feedback--it would be great to select Groups and Calendars.

Syncing iPhone with selected groups: selection not possible

I'm trying to sync only a part of my address book to my iPhone 4, but iTunes did not sync the group named iPhone (the group was created in the iPhone, but was empty). Then I've created a new group called "Mobil" in the address book with 300 or so contacts. But now iTunes is not able to see this group (as shown in the screen shot below).
Any hints from an experienced sync expert? Should I look for some third party apps to sync properly?

Mac OS X 10.6.7
Contact application is Apples Address Book 5.0.3
Here's the screenshot (didn't upload the first time)

Thanks for your reply. First, I am using BB Desktop Manager 5.0.   I set up the sync parameters and had problems. I tried to sync only the calendar after consolidating several family calendars into one ICS file. I selected this file but still had the problems noted in the log. This is similar to the problems I had when I tried to import my contacts into my BB. In order to avoid duplicates I had to sync one way to the device. I would only get so far and it would kick out.
My email sever is from our company. I am unsure how to find the answer to that question.

Ovi sync incompatible with N96

So, I've just spent the past hour or two trying to make head or tail of this.
I was finally able to create a new Ovi account today so I could start from scratch.
Step 1: Create Ovi account, confirm mobile number and have sync settings sent to you by SMS
Step 2: Sync calendar, contacts and notes with the setting "to server only". Your calendar entries, contacts and notes will be sent to the server.
Step 3: Log in from the web. Your contacts and notes are there but not the calendar events.
Step 4: Delete a note. Reset the sync profile on your N96 to "both ways" so that the removal of the note is synced to your phone.
Step 5: Re-do a sync. Instead of removing the note from the phone it is reinstated online...
Conclusion: Either Ovi sync and the N96 are not compatible, or incorrect settings are being delivered by SMS.

Possible to sync just ONE Gmail contact group?

So I'm wondering if it's possible to synchronize just one Gmail contact group with my Blackberry contacts. Like, I have about 15 Gmail contact groups -- one group for co-workers, one group for publicists who send me press releases, one group for friends, etc. I only want the addresses in my friends group to be sync'd with my Blackberry. Is this possible? Or do I have to let them all sync, and then manually delete the contacts I don't want from my Blackberry?

Hey eggcream,
The contact list "My Contacts" is the list that synchronizes.
You can remove this label in your Gmail contacts from those of whom you do not wish to have synchronized over.

Syncing Blackberry with ACT contacts and Calendar and Email through BES

I have had the hardest time setting up a blackberry for a user. It is the storm or bold 9800
we purchased companionlink and I was able to get the BES configured so it doesn't sync the calendar or contacts just email. On the Companionlink I have had issues were it doesn't sync the calendar or duplicates in the blackberry.
I have talked with support at companionlink and they tell me to select wipe the data on the BB and resync, that process takes forever. So my only option is to wipe everything clean and get one good sync but I can keep doing this for the user everytime.
IS there any troubleshooting methods I can use right now to get rid of the duplicates in the phone?
Or another program worth trying out?

There are two options that I know of.
First, you can try bluetooth syncing so you don't have to plug the BB in http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/search.do?cmd=displayKC&docType=kc&externalId=KB04132&sliceId=SAL_Pub...
Second, and the one I use, is the Google Desktop sync. http://www.google.com/support/calendar/bin/answer.py?answer=89955 This will only sync calendar; not contacts. I sync 1-way from my Outlook to Google Calendar then use the normal Google Sync to get it all on my Blackberry.

How can I sync only Calendars and Contacts on my work PC

Previous versions of the iCloud control panel allowed me to select separately which items I wanted to sync with a PC, Calendars, Contact, Email.
The new version of the control panel has this bundled as a single choice.
How can I eliminate incuding mail?
I am trying to use this on a work PC to keep calendars and contacts in sync, but cannot include iCould email. If I cannot eliminate just the email will need to remove all syncing (defeating the purpose of the cloud).

You might wait until the next Mavericks to see if iTunes syncing for contacts and calendars is restored. Otherwise, you can either install OS X server to restore local syncing (see https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/os-x-server/id714547929), or start syncing your calendars and contacts with another service such as Google/Gmail.

Sync issue with google contacts.

Just noticed that my contacts had not updated since Jan 2010. After conferring with Motorola did a factory reset. Put everything back in. Contacts were good for a couple of days. Now getting a message problem with sync. However gmail, calendar, facebook and picsa are syncing fine. Just the contacts.
Anyone got any suggestions. I have had the phone since before January without any other issues.
No apps that should interfere with process.

What is the difference. When I click on Contacts it shows the same as My Contacts except that My Contacts shows the groups broken down. Contacts lists alphabetically with the groups to the right and My Contacts lists the groups under it with the contact listings to the right.
