Sync google contacts

I just got icloud... great syns with contacts in mac and on iphone
But I use gmail and contacts in google they do not syn with iphone or with icloud
HELP

Google cannot sync with iCloud - it doesn't have the programming to allow this - only with datsa held under 'On My Mac'; and such data cannot sync with iCloud since the iCloud is actually living on the iCloud server. It's not possible to sync the same data with both.

  • ITunes on Win 7 64 bit will not sync Google Contacts to iPad

    This was particularly infuriating for a few solid hours one evening. I had originally synced my iPad to a Macbook Pro. I sold the MacBook, and had to do a warranty swap @ the Apple store with the iPad. This meant I needed to sync my new iPad with iTunes on my desktop, a computer running Windows 7 64 bit. Everything synced up just fine, except iTunes refused to sync my Google Contacts with the iPad. I went through the process again and again, ensuring I was choosing Google Contacts on the Info screen, correctly entering my account info, etc. I would sync, then check the Contacts on the iPad, and nothing.
    I was going to call Apple support from work the next day, but just for the heck of it before I did I connected the iPad to my work computer, a Win XP Pro box, and tried to sync the Google Contacts from that copy of iTunes. It worked just fine, and loaded all my Google Contacts on to the iPad. Both my home Win 7 64 box and my work XP box had the most up-to-date version of iTunes at the time (9.1.1 I believe).
    Any clue as to why iTunes refuses to sync Google Contacts on Win 7 64? I have to sync through iTunes, since Apple sees fit to only allow one Exchange account in iPhone OS 3.x.x and I have my work email setup as the Exchange account, and thusly cannot setup Gmail as the Exchange account.

    Just for the heck of it, I did a factory reset on the iPad again, and gave it another shot on the Win 7 64 machine at home. I uninstalled iTunes, restarted the computer, installed iTunes 9.1.1 64 bit for Windows, and achieved the exact same results: impossible to get iTunes to sync Google Contacts to the iPad. It goes through the motions, but never delivers any contacts to the iPad.

    How do i  sync google contacts in mac os 10.8.2 ?

    I was finally able to get PSE 11 to install by downloading the free trial. But first, I had to upgrade Adobe's Application Manager. I was then able to use the serial number contained in the confirmation email Adobe sent me from when I purchased it online. 
    Adobe sure makes it difficult to spend my hard-earned money!

  • ITunes Unable to Sync Google Contact Groups?

    Seems the previous topic on "iTunes Unable to Sync Google Contact Groups?" was archived without a fix being reported!
    I have iTunes (version 9.0.3.15) running on Windows Vista and iPhone 3Gs (version 3.1.1) and this issue with not being able to select sub groups in Google Contacts is still buggin' me... a lot!
    Has anyone heard if Apple have fixed this?
    Thanks, Adam.

    I just got off the phone with Apple support. They said this feature is not supported. It was, but not anymore.
    You would think that this would be pretty easy to figure out.
    I'm just as frustrated as the rest of you.

  • How to sync Google Contacts without iTunes

    First, I know this looks like a duplicated question (of other with same title) but if you look you will see that question is pretty different.
    Also, I've seen some suggestions visiting m.google.com/sync, but that is not available anymore, at least for iOS 5.
    I have many Google Contacts that came from more than one Android Devices. Using iTunes, (Device, Info, Sync Google Contacts) I managed to download all those contacts. Problem of this solution is: contacts added in the iOS device (in my iPod) are only uploaded to Google Contacts (therefore for the android devices) when I connect my to itunes - with is a pretty bad solution for many reasons.
    So I found a kind of a solution that is using an exchange account just for the contacts, refer here:
    http://www.google.com/support/mobile/bin/answer.py?answer=138740
    problem is, whatever I do (after validating and getting information that i'ts correct) when I access the address book it's prompted the password, I put it and I always get wrong password. I found many people with the same problem but no clear solution?
    Anyone knows a workaround or another solution ?

    In answer to actionmarker: i have windows xp servie pack 3
    In answer to Julian Wright: I just want a backup in case something happens to my ipad I  have no need for instant access on my computer as i rarely use it. I do not want to have to purchase outlook to backup and as far as i can tell even sycning with google calander (which i would need to setup as I do not already have but as i have a gmail account assume I can signup) seems to require outlook.
    So if i do nothing and worse comes to worse a restore of my ipad would recover my calander data?
    I am hoping that with iclouds and ios5 release that as far as i can tell from what i have read calander will be instanlty backed up over wifi when the ipad is connected to a powersource. I'm just hoping that it won't still require outlook (as it does not in mobile me).
    The other big risk is that the act of updating to iso5 will wipe my calander data or that i will be in need of a backup prior to iso5 coming out.
    So if anyone has any suggestions.....

  • How to sync Google Contacts groups to iPhone?

    I can sync my contacts both ways between Google Contacts and my iPhone's phone book.
    Contacts in Google contact are grouped. When contacts are synced to the phone, grouping information is lost.
    How do I preserve grouping information?
    Related question: I only want to have a few selected groups in Google to sync with my phone. How do I do that?
    why when I sync google contact at itune, the" selected groups" is gray?

    Hi - from the"iPhone 6 User Guide for iOS 8.1",I followed the following steps:
    Use your Google contacts: Go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars, tap your Google account,
    then turn on Contacts.
    So I entered Gmail and password. Then withing Contacts app I pressed the Sync link.  Afterwards I've got all contacts in one big list, just not categorized by Google groups.

  • Can you use iCloud to sync contacts and still sync google contacts too

    Just switched my contacts over to sync using icloud between my imac, iphone and ipad. Im wondering, can I sync the contacts somehow with google also? Would be great to gave everyting together and have web access to contacts on any computer.

    I should've just tried it before I asked this question.  Once I disconnected my internet completely, I was able to fully see and use my iCloud Documents, etc... They must be stored elsewhere on the computer instead of somewhere obvious like the Documents folder.
    I was able to open, edit, etc... and it appears that once you do connect to the internet that the new edits will sync with what's stored on iCloud, and then become accessible to your other devices.
    Of course, I then after doing all this, found a similar question which already had answers.  Sorry to clutter up the forums.

  • Feature Requests for BlackBerry10 OS: Sync Google contact grops to BB Contact groups

    Hi,
    I am using my Z10 and as well a Q10 for already one year now.
    What I am still missing dramatically is the opportunity that my google contact groups get also synced into groups in the BB device.
    I am using several groups to inform different teams with emails or SMS. All of them are organized in groups on google - unfortunately BB10 is still not able to sync these groups - and I am talking about 390 contacts :-/
    Is there any plan to integrate this feature?

    I don't know if there is any coming funciton for that.
    You can create those Address Book Groups in your device Contacts app.

  • How do I sync Google Contacts groups to iPhone

    I have all my Google contacts in different Groups.  I would like to have those same Google contacts groups synced to iPhone Contacts app. I followed instructions to sync iPhone Contacts with my Google account.  All my Google contacts did sync to iPhone but there were no iPhone contact groups created. So I have one huge list of contacts. How do I sync the Google contacts groups?  Thank you

  • Sync Google Contacts via iTunes not working

    Hi
    Just got a new Macbook with Yosemite and am syncing my Google Mail, Calendar, Contacts with the Macbook without difficulty,  I have disabled iCloud syncing for Mail, Calendar, and Contacts. 
    Now, I want to get Google Contacts set up on my old iPhone 3G (iOS 4.2.1) as a stop gap before getting a new iPhone down the line.  However, I can't find a reliable way of getting my Google Contacts on to the iPhone 3G.
    Exchange Sync and CardDAV do not work.  I don't mind syncing via iTunes but I can't set this up either.  Despite telling iTunes to sync 'All Contacts' it won't sync those from my Google account.  Only contacts in 'On My Mac' group sync across, but I don't want to manually keep track of and copy new Google contacts into this group just to sync.
    Why won't iTunes sync the Google contacts group - currently it is the only group in my OS X Contacts.
    I have reset sync and reinitialised the iPhone to factory image - neither works.
    Any advice appreciated.

    try rebooting the appletv.
    also, you have a first generation appletv but have posted in the second generation appletv forum.

  • Sync google contacts ONLY

    hi all, tried search but too many generic terms to yield any real results.
    just curious if it's possible to sync only contacts with gmail and NOT mail & calendar, and if so how?
    thanks.
    Post relates to: Pre p100eww (Sprint)
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    So another yes and no answer
    Will you get duplicates? Kind of. Since the data is the same it will duplicate things, however because of the way the synergy feature works it links this data together. So if you look at your contacts from a first glance it will not look like you have duplicates, but going into the actual contact will show that you do have that same contact in multiple places. Also data will only appear duplicated on your Pre not in Google itself.
    If you are transitioning to Google you should get the few contacts that are not in Google over there.
    After you get them in Google follow these steps to erase your palm profile and then start over so you don't get the "duplicate" contacts ( of course assuming you want to do this, as it will erase your entire palm profile and you will have to add everything back on the phone, Contacts are in google though )
    To erase your backup do the following
    1. Launch backup
    2. Turn backup off
    3. Close backup
    4. Launch Device Info
    5. Select reset options
    6. Partial Erase
    7. Sign back into existing profile
    8. Add your Google account to get your contacts
    9. Remove contacts from palm desktop.
    10. Run DTA if you need to get Calendar or anything else from palm desktop
    Make sure you have verified your palm profile before performing above steps

  • Sync Google Contacts with Entourage - Mountain Lion

    Use Cobook and Google Contacts to sync contacts to my MacBook, iPad, and Android phone.  Love it.  Problem is how to get Google Contacts to sync with Entourage.  Before I upgraded to Mountain Lion, I used Address Book sync and it worked fine.  Since the upgrade, not working.  Anyone have ideas that can help? 

    Can't you export Google contacts as vCards > place on microSD in Asha 501 > Copy contacts > Import to phone > Files > Search for file where it has been saved on your device, and then choose it. You will get the message “Start importing contacts to your phone?” hit ‘Yes’.
    Happy to have helped forum in a small way with a Support Ratio = 37.0

  • Sync google contacts via itunes

    do the contact go to contact book?

    In order to make the sync work the way you describe I would have to manually export the contacts from Google, manually import them into Outlook. Then manually export the Outlook contacts back out and re-import them back into Google. Then hope that duplicates don't occur. This would all be done without using iTunes.
    iTunes doesn't support syncing directly with a csv file. Syncing with iTunes works without any issue to get contacts to and from the phone. However, those contacts will not get into Google's server. And any contacts that came from Google will never sync with iTunes.
    What I want is a way to do this automatically. You are right however, MobileMe might be the only way to do this with Outlook. But I have Outlook XP (2002), I would need to upgrade to Outlook 2007 in order to use this. In addition it says the following: "If you use Microsoft Outlook in conjunction with Microsoft Exchange Server, MobileMe will not sync your contacts or calendars with Outlook." So I am back once again to not being able to sync with all 3 (phone, outlook and exchange "cloud"). Maybe this is why that didn't work for your buddy.
    MobileMe also costs $100/year. A little steep if you ask me, considering exchange through Google is free.

  • How to force Address Book syncing Google contacts immediately?

    Hi everyone,
    Last time I configured the Address Book as syncing the contacts with my Google account, but there was nothing changed in the Address Book. A couple of days later when I run Address Book again, the contacts in my Google accont was already transferred into the application. I mean I don't know when the synchronization would happen and I don't know how to force it happen immediately.
    I did some changes in my Google account and wish the modification being synced to the Mac asap. I'm desperate to see it happens since the modification was three days ago and the content in Address Book just won't change. I also delete all contacts in my Address Book and re-configure the synchronization but no luck either.
    Wating for the answer. Thanks in advance.

    I believe you can force the sync from isync. put an isync icon in the menu bar and when you want to sync AB choose "sync now" from the isync menu.

  • Best way to sync google contacts/calendar

    Just bought iPad2, and am wondering the best way to sync my contacts and calendars from google to my MacBook and iPad (my mac and phone sync to google and need to add ipad). My MacBook doesn't have Lion so I'm guessing that I wouldn't be able to keep it updated via iCloud at this point? Is iTunes the best way to go until I update my Mac?
    Thanks!

    The methods do different things
    Push notifications just tell you an Item has been updated and will give you the ItemId of that item. You then need to get that item and work out the changes
    SyncFolderItems and Pull Notifications are very simular in that they provide a list of updates the underlying Sync mech is a little different Watermarks vs SyncState. In comparison to Push notifications these will consume more bandwidth and require more
    requests to the server.
    >Using Filter and FindItems
    Would just require more requests to the server to do the same thing. However no matter the method you use it will still require you bind to the Item that is modified using GetItem to work out what's changed etc and all these method have challenges around
    getting deleted items. The underlying code for Pull notifications and SyncFolderItems is petty simple my suggestion would be you write a test application yourself to see.
    Saying which is better really depends on what your trying to achieve. Eg if need to make the most minimalistic number of requests to the server then push notifications would be best to track changes see
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/dn458791(v=exchg.150).aspx which lists the differences in bandwidth.
    Other things you need to consider are throttling which maybe not a problem OnPremise but will be if you move into the cloud or Office365.
