How do i sync my iphone contact to my pc not the icloud?

Contacts
To sync contacts with your computer, choose "Sync Contacts with" within iTunes for Windows, or "Sync Address Book Contacts" on your Mac.
You can sync your contacts with:
Microsoft Outlook 2003, Microsoft Outlook 2007, Microsoft Outlook 2010 (Windows XP, Windows Vista, or Windows 7)
Windows Address Book (Windows XP)
Windows Contacts (Windows Vista / Windows 7)
Address Book (Mac OS X)
Microsoft Entourage 2004, Microsoft Entourage 2008, or Microsoft Outlook 2011 for Mac
Note: If using Microsoft Entourage, use Microsoft Entourage 2008 12.1.2 or later if syncing with Mac OS X v10.6 or later. If you would like to sync data on your Mac with Entourage, enable syncing between Entourage and Address Book.

  • IPad sync - contacts with Computer

    All my contacts are up to date on my Mac.  I sync my iPhones through iTunes to the Computer, not iCloud, because I also use Outlook.  It all works great.  But when I connect my iPad I get a message asking if I want to resolve conflicts.  The iPad addresses are outdated.  Problem is it appears the iPad list will override the Computer data.  I want it to go the other way.  How do I fix this?

    Had the same problem with 4 devices (two computers, an iPhone and an iPod). The solution is simple: open the Address Book application in your mac, ask it to locate duplicate entries (under one of the top menu items, "edit" I think), and then ask it to consolidate them: it took me all of three seconds after I figured it out: worked like a charm! PS: if you have more than one mac with unconected Address Books, repeating the operation in the second one may be a good idea.

    As you've noticed, since the release of Mavericks syncing contacts with a Mac using iTunes is no longer supported. Following is a link to troubleshooting information for iCloud contacts which may have something that will help: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3998

  • Sync contacts between two account iCloud

    Hi everyone,
    Me and my wife both have iphone. We usually used just one iCloud account, so we had shared calendar, contacts etc. etc. which is very useful for us.
    Since Siri has arrived it begun to create troubles with the contacts, because the contact marked as "me" is the same for both iphones, so on my iphone siri calls me with the name of my wife...
    Now with the new "family" function with iOS 8 i can finally separate the iCloud accounts on our iphones, and still have the same apps, calendar etc. on both of them.
    My problem is with the contacts, we would like to keep the same contacts on both iphones and synched, but i can't do that with the "family" function.
    Anyone can suggest me a way to sync contacts between two account iCloud selecting which information to share?
    Thanks

    Thanks. You said: "When you setup iCloud the On my Mac contacts should've been moved to iCloud I think (can't remember what happened in my case)."
    Actually that does not happen, or at least it didn't happen to me.

  • Why do apps not sync -- it says computer not authorized.  I tried unauthorizing my computer and then reauthorizing and I tried deleting the sc file.  It still says the app is not authorized on this computer.

    why do apps not sync -- it says computer not authorized.  I tried unauthorizing my computer and then reauthorizing and I tried deleting the sc file.  It still says the app is not authorized on this computer and I'm unable to sync this app that I previously had downloaded.  Any help pls.

    Did you download the app via that same iTunes account id ? Have you tried re-downloading it directly on your iPad (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519) ?

  • How to sync apps to iPad which is synced by another computer( not mine) without losing the last apps on the iPad

    How to sync apps to iPad which is synced by another computer( not mine) without losing the last apps on the iPad

    When you plug in the iPad iTunes will want to restore it/wipe it, so if you do not have the apps in your iTunes then you can copy the apps from the iPad to iTunes when plugged in by right clicking the iPad and selecting "transfer purchased..." which copies the purchases into iTunes.
    However as iTunes will only sync to 1 iTunes, it will then want to wipe your iPad, so you need to make sure you have everything in your iTunes that you want back on your iPad.
    This is to stop people taking their iOS device to a friends and then taking their paid songs/video/apps.
    If you still do not have all of the apps in iTunes, you can either download the Apps via the iTunes store or try and find an application that lets you sync from the computer to the iPad and via versa in place of iTunes.

  • Need Detailed Instructions on Syncing Contacts to Computer

    After thoroughly reviewing the online help information, and carefully reading the menu descriptions I do not "precisely" know how to:
    1) Copy my iphone contacts to my computer for backup storage.
    2) Maintain that backup storage by actively syncing to it when updates are made via my phone or computer.
    3) Correctly and easily restore my phone contacts from my computer to i) a new iphone and ii) to a phone other than an iPhone.
    I would appreciate very clear and precise instructions on performing the above tasks.
    Thank you.

    Welcome to the discussions,
    1) The contacts and calendars are part of your iphone backup made by itunes each time you sync your phone in itunes. See this article about the content of the backup: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
    2) Each time you sync, contacts and calendars are updated on the computer and the phone
    Contacts, calendars, notes, and webpage bookmarks are synced with applications
    on your computer, as described in the following section. Contacts and calendars are
    synced both ways between your computer and iPhone. New entries or changes you
    make on iPhone are synced to your computer, and vice versa.
    copied from http://manuals.info.apple.com/enUS/iPhone_UserGuide.pdf , page 12
    3) if you connect a new iphone, you will have the choise to use a backup to restore or set it up "as new iphone"
    You'll have to use your computer to transfer contact info to another phone or mail them one by one from your iphone.
    "Backing up and restoring" http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
    Don't forget to backup the iphone backup folder as well from time to time, because each new backup replaces the old one. To locate the folder for windows, see "About backups"

  • Reminders and Notes sync via iTunes (cable, not iCloud).

    Hello, Everyone.
    Has Apple fixed the problem with Notes and Reminders yet ? When I last researched the subject both applications (1) could only be synchronized via iCloud and (2) even that wasn't working well for most users.
    Is there an update or a way to sync Notes and Reminders via iTunes without the use of the Internet (iCloud, Gmail or any other Internet-based service) ?
    Thank you in advance for your help and input.
    <Edited by Host>

    This doesn't help you, but I just recently started having the same problem, I just upgraded my 3G to 4.0 in iTunes so I don't know if that has anything to do with it but nothing on my phones calendar will sync to iCal. Events in iCal sync to the computer just fine thought. I hope someone can help me figure this out!

  • 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 from mac to icloud

    I've got all my contacts on my MacBook. However, iCloud only shows a single contact. I want to upload my copntacts from my MacBook to iCloud. Why is this so hard?

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

  • Syncing contacts from iphone to icloud

    My iPhone 4 won't sync the "all contacts" section of my phone to the iCloud contacts. I just want to put all of my contacts from my iPhone onto iCloud so they can then be synced to my Macbook Pro. As of right now I have an incomplete contact list on my Mac. Thanks for the help!

  • TS3999 Using OS Mavericks. Any way to sync Contacts & Calendars without using iCloud? Don't always have internet!

    Any way to sync ical and contacts without internet?!!

    Not unless you want to install OS X server and set up your own CardDAV and CalDAV server as explained here: http://www.macworld.com/article/2061183/itunes-ios-syncing-gone-solve-it-with-se rver-.html.  That would allow you to sync contacts and calendars locally with your Mac as you could before Mavericks.

  • HT4759 Can I use the Icloud to sync contacts, calendar and notes on my Iphone 4s with ios7?

    Most of my info seems to automatically back up to the cloud automatically and at once point my address book must have also but I am no longer able to sync the updated address book to my icloud. This as also been a problem with notes and other apple aps.  I do not have an Icloud app on my phone but in the systems folder where it shows the icon on the computer it says mobile me which I do not have.  Does this mean I need to pay the $20 upgrade fee to go to mountain lion and if i have to upgrade is that the best one to update too? what major changes will i see when I do this and will it cause a problem with any of my current info on my phone such as contacts and calendar?

    Yes, to sync with iCloud on your Mac you will need to upgrade.
    You can certainly upgrade to Mountain Lion but OS X Mavericks is due out within the next month so it may be worth it to wait. In the meantime you can access your iCloud contacts, calendars, etc... from iCloud.com. Sign in with your Apple ID.
    Here is more info on Mavericks: Apple - OS X Mavericks - Do even more with new apps and features.
