Sync iPhone 4 with Outlook 2010 via Windows 7

Is there a fix for this problem?  I have the current updates of Outlook 2010, Windows 7, and iTunes for my iPhone 4.  I cannot sync my iPhone contacts with Outlook.  When I entered new contacts into Outlook, and sync with iPhone, the contact information does not sync.  When I had an earlier version of Outlook, the contact information was sync with my iPhone.  But now, it does not work.  I made an appointment with the Apple support technician and the technician tried to help but he could not resolve the problem.  As indicated by himself, the tech said he was their best tech, and he had not heard of this problem.  Instead, he recommended placing all my contact onto iCloud.  Again, is there a fix for this problem?

Problems with a calendar sync in Outlook can generally be traced to a corrupt appointment at some time. It can happen from a shutdown in Outlook or any number of other reasons. If you can remember when the trouble began, see if you can locate an appointment on that day. You can also try and reset the sync history in iTunes, and can also run scanpst.exe and troubleshoot your Outlook file.
I've used every version of Outlook since 2000 and have been able to trace this issue a couple of times to an appointment that has a recurring setting. You can change the view of your appointments and list them. When you do that, you may be able to locate an appointment that doesn't look right. I had to print out all of my appointments once and then reenter them. Luckily I didn't have that many, so it didn't matter. Again, this is usually something corrupt in the Outlook file that will make the problem appear, and since everything else in Outlook is syncing except the calendar, that is the place to look.

  • HT1296 Does Apple support syncing iPhones to Outlook 2010 on Windows 8?

    Spending too much time trying to sync Calendars and Contacts between iPhone 4S iOS 6.0.1 and Outlook 2010 on Windows 8.  Used to do this well until Outlook 2003 stopped syncing on old computer.  Bought a new laptop, copied the Outlook.pst file to new machine and pointed Outlook 2010 to the copied file.  All good.  Authorized iPhone to new laptop and it appears to sync correctly (music syncs), but Contacts & Calendar items won't sync.  A clue: Contact groups and Calendar groups on iTunes do not reflect actual groups on laptop.  Any ideas?  Thanks in advance.

    Hello - can someone help, please!?!?  I have studied the Support site, read blogs, and am seeing conflicting thoughts.  Does iTunes 11 simply not sync with Windows 8?

  • IPhone 4 won't sync calendar with Outlook 2010 and Windows 7

    I have iPhone 4 and have noticed my Outlook 2010 (32 bit) calendar won't sync in either direction with my iPhone. I run Windows 7 (64 bit version 6.1 Home Premium). ITunes (10.4.1.10 version) sees my device and I even checked the serial number match. Entries in my calendar on the phone don't appear in Outlook and entries in Outlook don't appear on the phone. I have double checked all the settings and they all seem correct, so what is happening here?

    Did you try the troublshooting mentioned here? Troubleshooting iPhone and iPod touch contact and calendar syncing via USB on Windows
    Start with resetting the sync history:
    Reset Sync History
    If you find that some of your data syncs to your device but you see an unexpected number of changes or modifications, you may need to reset your sync history. This causes iTunes to prompt to Merge or Replace information on the device when you next attempt to sync your information. To reset your Sync History:
    Open iTunes.
    From the Edit menu, choose Preferences.
    Click the Devices tab.
    Click the Reset Sync History button.

    Hi nprguy,
    It sounds like an earlier version of the BlackBerry® Desktop Software installed on your PC may be conflicting with this installation. 
    I would advise uninstalling both versions of the BlackBerry Desktop Software then reinstalling the latest version.
    The following KB articles should provide more information on the issue.
    "The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable" when uninstalling BlackBerry Desktop Manager www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB10220

  • How do i sync my iphone with outlook 2010

    how do i sync my iphone 4 with outlook 2010?

    This is a very bad situation... i had multiple contact groups set up in outlook 2007 as per this Tut
    http://www.ehow.com/how_5937574_make-contact-group-iphone.html
    i then installed 2010 and all my contacts got removed from iphone...alot of wasted time later it turns out there is a Glitch somewhere and there seems to be only one workaround (Please if there is a better fix Post it HERE)
    if you have more than a single Outlook profile when you start Outlook choose the plain old "Outlook"  profile then click Contacts on the bottom left. now above that in the far left pane should be Contacts and Suggested Contacts - below My Contacts beyond that depends on additional accounts you have added to this account as Outlook tracks each email adress you send from as seperate ost file.
    The Contacts BELOW My Contacts is the only group that will synch with itunes so add whatever you need to this group and you should be good to go
    if you are having trouble making this work try another profile - but figure out what IS synching then copy the data you need into this group
    like i said its a work around not a fix
    APPLE  help!! Fix this Outlook 2010 synch issue Please!!!

  • Syncing iPhone With Outlook Calendar

    Hello all,
    I've been using my iPhone 4 (latest firmware - 4.3.3) and syncing contacts, calendars & notes with Outlook 2003 in Windows Vista for some time now & all has worked fine. I also Outlook to access my Hotmail e-mail.
    I've recently re-installed with Windows 7 (32bit) and upgraded Office to 2010 as well. I'm again using Outlook to access Hotmail. With the latest version of the Outlook Connector, it now also accesses my Hotmail contacts in Outlook, which it didn't do before & defaults to using my Hotmail calendar rather than the local one in Outlook alone.
    After some tidying up, I've sorted all my contacts so that what's on Outlook (and synced to my iPhone) is the same as what's in Hotmail. This seems to be syncing back & forth quite happily between the phone & Outlook via iTunes.
    With the calendar, due to Outlook now using the Hotmail calendar, I've had to re-enter all my entries in "Adam's Calendar" (i.e. the Hotmail one) in Outlook, whereas before they were on the local calendar. Having done this, they sync across to Hotmail online and sync onto the iPhone. Entries made via Hotmail online also appear on Outlook and so sync to the phone.
    The problem comes the other way. If I make an entry in my calendar on the phone, it won't sync to Outlook. Likewise, if I use the phone to edit an entry that was synced over from Outlook then the changes don't sync back. The only calendar I have displayed on the iPhone from the available list is "Adam's Calendar". I've tried forcing iTunes to only sync that one by de-selecting "All calendars" and only selecting "Adam's calendar" from the available list (consisting of that entry and "Calendar"). So, there should be no reason for "Adam's Calendar" on the phone to be syncing to any other calendar on the computer. Still no joy...
    Anybody got any ideas why this isn't working and what might fix it??
    TIA,
    Adam.

    Folks, in case it helps anyone else, I've found a solution!
    Set up the iPhone to connect to the Exhange server for Hotmail, then sleect which (of e-mail, contacts & calendar) you want to connect to.
    Go into Settings-->Mail, Contacts, Calendars-->Add Account...
    Select a MS Exchange account
    Enter your details:
    Email: [email protected]
    Domain: [Leave blank]
    Username: [email protected]
    Password: password
    Click 'Next'
    A new field for 'Server' will appear. Enter m.hotmail.com
    Continue through and you will be able to set on/off your hotmail e-mail, contacts and/or calendar to connect to the phone. In my case, I just went with the calendar as I use mBoxMail for e-mail so it's all nicely structured in folders and figure it's easier (and won't eat my phone's bandwidth) to just sync my contacts to Outlook through a cable and Outlook then sync to Hotmail over my broadband connection.
    Now, any entry made on my phone flies through the airwaves to Hotmail and in turn up the broadband cable to Outlook. Likewise, any entry made in either of the other two makes the same journey.
    Hope that helps anyone else in a similar position.
    Adam.

  • Can't sync iphone with Outlook

    My previous setup was ical on my iphone and mac via icloud. Everything synced great. I have changed from ical to Outlook and and wondering how I can sync my calendar from my iphone to outlook via icloud. Furthermore, I would like to be able to create an outlook event within outlook and it auto sync on my iphone. Any suggestions?

    I spent an hour on the phone with Apple support on this exact issue. For me, sync to Outlook 2010 (32bit) worked fine in iTunes 9.2.1, and failed after I upgraded to 10. Apple support finally suggested getting Outlook x64. I'm running Windows 7 x64, but MS Office x86 (How Dell shipped it).
    So, before going down that path (which is a bit of major surgery on my PC) I decided to completely remove iTunes 10, and my 10 library from my machine (all my media and apps are shared on another home computer).
    I then installed iTunes 9.2.1 on the 'clean' machine, and I did a factory reset on my iPhone.
    Low and behold the sync of my contacts, calendar and notes works seamlessly now from 9.2.1. I have tested several appointments and contacts and it works without complaint.
    So... hate to tell you this but it looks like the issue is with iTunes 10.
    So, for now, I will use my 'work' PC to sync just the contacts, notes and calendar with Outlook 2010 (using iTunes 9.2.1). On my 'home' PC I will sync my media and apps with iTunes 10. I've tested this, and it works fine.
    Not an ideal solution, I'm lucky to have access to two machines. I'm convinced the problem is with iTunes 10. If you can, go back to iTunes 9.2.1 (there is a backup of you Library itl file you can use (the version 10 ITL won't work with 9.2.1)
    Apple needs to fix 10 ASAP.

  • Syncing iPhone with Outlook 2007 after hard drive crash.

    I recently had a hard drive crash.  We were able to retrieve the .pst files for Outlook 2007 and I sync my iPhone with Outlook for contacts, calendar and such for business.  The iPhone of course, was not affected.  I downloaded iTunes on the new hard drive, and backed up the phone.  (I sync music and apps on my husband's laptop.) 
    Now, in trying to sync, though, I get a lot of nebulous messages that really don't explain what the outcome will be. 
    Box says:
    The information on the iPhone "Susan's iPhone" is synced with another user account.  Do you want to sync this iPhone with the information from this user account instead?
    (Choices:  "Merge Info mergest th einformation on this iPhone with the information from this user account.  OR "Replace Info" replaces the information on this iPhone with the information from this user account.  )
    My best guess would be 'Merge info" but then, will I end up with double everything?  I have many hundreds of contacts and years of calendars.
    It seems with Apple I'm always cleaning up one mess after another.  Today when installing iTunes, it corrupted my Outlook and I had to repair Outlook. So it would be a nightmare to have double of everything on my phone and on my computer. 
    Does anyone have a clue as to what to expect? 

    On a PC with Windows or with Paralels iTunes 8.2 has an option for Outlook which works with Outlook 2003 and Outlook 2007 (if it works - see my post on a case where it doesn't ...)

  • Synching Tungsten E2 with Outlook 2010 on Windows 7 (64 bit)

    I am currently using Windows XP and Outlook 2003 with Tungsten E2 but need to replace my PC The new PC will be running Outlook 2010 on Windows 7 (64 bit).  
    Is there any way of synching my Tungsten E2 to Windows 7 (64 bit) running Outlook 2010? 
    With many thanks
    Post relates to: Tungsten E2

    I do have the Palm working thru a Bluetooth connection.  Well, at least it completes a sync.  Well, at least the process completes, according to the palm---but nothing really syncs!   Buwahahahahaha!  I came across a posting on another site in which the poster could not get to the "setting portions" of the bluetooth device (basically it was a usb bluetooth dongle).  He opened up the "services" portion of windows and made sure everything that said "bluetooth" was set to automatic.  Thats what I did to get my dongle to work with the Palm (man oh man does that sound nasty!).

  • Cannot sync ipad with Outlook 2010 contacts. help

    I called techsupport when I was unable to sync my Outlook 2010 contacts with my Ipad2. The techie told me I could only sync from earlier versions of Outlook (seems kinda dumb).  She said I could sync from my gmail contacts but when I tried this gmail told me "25% of the content in your content will change on your computer". Ideas?

    The iPad manual says :
    You can sync contacts with applications such as Mac OS X Address Book, Yahoo! Address Book, and Google Contacts on a Mac, or with Yahoo! Address Book, Google Contacts, Windows Address Book (Microsoft Outlook Express), Windows Vista Contacts, or Microsoft Outlook 2003, 2007, or 2010 on a PC. (On a Mac, you can sync contacts with multiple applications. On a PC, you can sync contacts with only one application at a time.)
    So you should be able to sync contacts from Outlook 2010.  I don't think Outlook 2010 was supported on the original iPad until iOS 4.2+ was installed, but the iOS on the iPad 2 has (I think) always been high enough.
    What happens when you try ?

    You don't. It is not a supported program for syncing with iTunes. iTunes supports syncing with Outlook and Windows Address book only on a PC.

  • Syncing notes with Outlook 2010

    When I attempt to sync Notes with Outlook, all the notes at both ends i.e. the PC and iPad revert to a date some weeks ago.  If I change the same note on both the PC and iPad I would expect a sync conflict, but again the note reverts to a copy (from somewhere) that is several weeks old.  If I change either end and sync, again, the notes revert.
    How can I fix this?

    Ok, well after looking at everything, I decided that the best solution was to uninstall an App called "Tango", as it seemed to 'mess' with contacts directly, and I only use it with 1 person, so switching back to Skype (plus Tango sends/shares lots of personal
    info, location, and keeps changing it's access rights and doing stuff when you're not looking - I'm sure some people love it, but for me, it's a belts and braces get rid of anything that might have 'contributed' to this issue).
    Found my un-sync'd contacts and emailed them to myself, then deleted the Exchange active-sync account. Checked what was left, found google had managed to sync some stuff, cleared that up too!
    RE-created the account on the S4 - only need the email and password, as it finds the server and sets itself up automatically (I guess it did that previously).
    All is now working, after about 5mins the data had been re-populated and it sync's new changes instantly. But I will monitor from time to time to check that new contacts or added numbers etc do sync. My best guess is that some index or other data became corrupt.
    Just one of those things (or had I been tango'd?!).
    On the Truncating Notes Issue, the S4 (realised that it's running Android 4.3) does chop a note but only if edited, at 1001 chrs. However unlike others, it seems to only truncate the note if you actually edit the note field, so adding a phone number or removing
    one, leaves the note field intact!
    To summaries other devices behaviour with the Contact record Notes Field:
    - iPhone 3GS (on iOS 6.1.3) truncates at 32,777 chrs (so pretty big notes!)
    - Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 (GT-N8020 - Android 4.1.1) chops at about 1,000chrs, even if just adding a phone number to the contact - so not even editing the notes field
    - HTC One X (4.2.2) at 5,122 chrs (when editing any part of the contact)
    I hope this might help someone in the future if they have similar problems ...
    cheers

  • Syncing Groups with Outlook 2010 and Iphone 5

    I am having trouble with my groups in my contacts in Outlook 2010 transferring to my Iphone 5.  I have resynced my history, but that has not helped my problem.  I have several groups that I email on a regular basis for work related issues.  These groups have up to 125 people.  The people in the groups change, and so I will move them to an inactive group on my Outlook 2010, but they will not move from the current group on my Iphone.  HELP!

  • Can't sync iPad with Outlook 2010 since creating iCloud account

    Ever since I created an iCloud account, my iPad will not sync my calendar with my Dell laptop running Windows 7 and Outlook 2010.  It worked fine prior to adding the cloud.  I have done a hard reset of the iPad with no luck either.  I only use one Apple device (iPad).  Do i even need a cloud account as I sync/backup my iPad to my laptop and Android phone daily?  Help, I need to get my info back on the iPad.

    I was able to fix it somehow by deleting the calendars on my iPad and iPhone and turning off iCloud calendar it finally let me select outlook calendar to sync by also selecting to replace calendar in advanced settings. But only by selecting both. It only took 6 months for Apple to allow me to do so because I have selected the outlook calendar before and wouldn't sync.
    I have Windows 7 and MS Outlook 10
