  • IPhone with Yahoo contact sync: "unknown error (4)"

    When I try to sync with my iPhone, I get "itunes could not sync with yahoo address book because an unknown error occurred (4)". This has happened consistently for about a month. I have an iPhone 3GS, with iOS 4.2.1, and iTunes 10.1.1, running on Windows XP (SP3).
    I have tried reinstalling all Apple software by following directions in http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1923. This does not resolve the problem. I have also tried reseting the iPhone and using various options in iTunes such as Info > Advanced > Replace information on this iPhone. Also, I just had my iPhone replaced due to hardware reasons, so this is a brand new phone (but restored from my old backup) and still has the same issues.
    I have seen a similar post of this error from 3 years ago stating that although the error occurs, sync still happens. In my case I can't say sync is happening. Most changes I make I do not see reflected (either changes in Yahoo or iPhone don't sync to one another), however in on case a contact I made in my Yahoo address book did sync to my iPhone. Later I deleted it from Yahoo, and the contact then did NOT get deleted from the iPhone after a sync. So, needless to say, if sync is working it is extremely inconsistent.
    Anyone else having this issue?

    This must be a very common error that I would expect Apple to reply to. I too and getting the exact issue as Tomes...when I sync my iPhone to yahoo contacts, I get "itunes could not sync with yahoo address book because an unknown error occurred (4)". This has happened consistently for about a month. I also have an iPhone 3GS, with iOS 4.2.1, and iTunes 10.1.1.4, running on Windows XP (SP3).
    I have done exhausted tests and I can confirm....1) It is NOT a connectivity issue since my yahoo contact do get synced on my iPhone but MY iPHONE CONTACTS DO NOT GET UPDATED ON MY YAHOO CONTACTS!!! This is a MAJOR problem since I mostly add new contacts to my iPhone. 2)When I do change an existing contact on my iPhone, during the sync it will ask me to review and chose which of the two to use...However, if I choose the iPhone change it does not update the Yahoo contact.....so again it is connecting to Yahoo but there is a bug that can absolutely be replicated.
    Can someone from Apple look into this? I have seen so many posts on this but no answers. (Also, I get the same error on my iPad!!!! when syncing contacts).

    I just got my new i phone 5 s and did all the syncing and backing up for my old iphone 4s and set my 5 up and synced it on itunes.  It synced evrything but the contacts and other minor things. those were the only things that really transfered.  My apps and all my music did not. Tthe thing is when i just went to go manually start dowmloading a few of the songs that i knew i already bought , itunes is making me pay forthem again.  Its not saying instal like it usuall does when you go download something aleady purchased on your itunes account.  I think or thought it might have something to do with the fact that i just changed my apple id name right before i got my new phine but my apps all re-downloaded (manually-no syncing) without making me pay for them again.  i dont want to have to purchase allllll my songs again.  Can someone please help me!!  Itried going back to my old id or signing out of this id and signing in as my old apple id but now it wot even get on that oneits likjeit doesnt exist anymore..   And when i plug my old phone it shows in the itunes everything thats supposed to be there but all that doesnt stay in the itunes when i actually un plug it so when i plug my 5 in to my computer none of the stuff is in the store for me to actually transfer it  I am so good with technology and this has me stumped  please help

    No it's not stealing. They have an allowance that you can share with so many computers/devices. You'll have to authorize her computer to play/use anything bought on your acct. You can do this under the Store menu at top when iTunes is open on her computer.
    As far as getting it all on her computer....I think but I am not sure (because I don't use the feature) but I think if you turn on Home Sharing in iTunes it may copy the music to her computer. I don't know maybe it just streams it. If nothing else you can sign into your acct on her computer and download it all to her computer from the cloud. Not sure exactly how to go about that, I haven't had to do that yet. I wonder if once you authorize her computer and then set it up for automatic downloads (under Edit>Preferences>Store) if everything would download. Sorry I'm not much help on that.

  • How can I sync outlook 2007 subfolders, contacts, and calendar to iphone 6

    How do I setup to sync outlook 2007 subfolders, contacts, and calendar to iphone 6?
    Inbox messages will sync but not the sent box from either outlook or iphone.  Also, outlook subfolders are showing up on iphone. 

    Hi,
    you don't need MobileMe or anything fancy. I personally sync my Outlook calendar and my Outlook address book with three computers (two at the office and one at home)and besides I run Office 2003 on one, Office 2007 on the other and Office 2010 on the third, so it can't get more complicated than that, but it works 100%.
    First sync Outlook with iTunes on one computer, having done that when you try to sync it to another machine, iTunes will recognize that it is synced with another computer and ask you if you want to merge the data, say yes, That's all there is to it.
    It does not work for music as you rightly say but as far as Calendars and Contacts are concerned it's flawless and transparent.
    If you hit a snag talk back to me.
    Cheers.

  • Sync iphone to yahoo

    Getting ready to fire up a new iPhone 4S and am trying to ensure that it will sync seamlessly with Yahoo (contacts, calendars, email, etc.) 
    Especially need to ensure that If I receive and view email from my Yahoo account on my phone, that if I delete the messages from my phone, they will also be deleted on the Yahoo server.
    Trying to determine if I need to abandon Yahoo in favor of Gmail or an Apple email account, or if Yahoo plays well enough with Apple that I can keep the Yahoo account I've had for years and still get efficient email handling and syncing of contacts.
    Thank you!

    hey i just got an iphone for my girl yesterday. we managed to sync everything from yahoo just fine. but we also had to edit almost all contacts(@ 220 of them). we have not synced the phone with the computer yet.
    my question to you is this, when you synced the second time around, did your contacts get erased or edited back to what yahoo had? i'm just cuirious and i'm also curious to know the answer to your question as well.
    thank you.

  • I accidentally restored my iPhone and I lost contacts and pictures. How do I get these back?

    Sync them back from whatever contact manager or cloud service you were syncing them with.

  • Sync iPhone to Google Contacts?

    Can you use Google Sync to get all of your iPhone contacts into Google? All my updated contacts are on iPhone/Outlook. If I use Google Sync will it send the contacts on my iPhone to Google, or will it sync my extremely limited Google contacts to the iPhone and erase the other contacts?

    You have your updated contacts in your outlook, correct? Then you can export all your contacts to CSV ( windows) file. In you google/ gmail account, you import the csv file you created. It will appear as contacts for your gmail. You don't have to use iTunes. Go directly to iphone, setting mail, contact and calendar with google/gmail account. Follow this setup: http://www.google.com/support/mobile/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=138740
    My suggestion: to delete all your contacts in your iphone, and forget for syncing with outlook. Contacts will always be updated in both sides. Without ITunes, and outlook.
    If you still need updated contacts in outlook, do export/ import in CSV file from gmail to outlook.
    Hope it will solve.

  • I updated my iphone all my contacts and photos are gone. How can I retrieve them?

    I updated my iphone all my contacts and photos are gone. How can I retrieve them?

    Have you failed to use the device as designed?
    If using the iPhone as designed, contacts are synced with a supported application on the computer or a cloud service.  Pictures taken with the device would be copied off to the computer on a regular basis.
    If you have been using the device as designed, simply sync the content back.
    If you have not been using the device as designed, you can try restoring from the most recent backup.  However, if that does not restore them, they are gone.

  • My husband and I share one computer.  We want to be able to share the same music on our iPhones, but we don't want to share the same contacts and applications.  How can I set this up so we still share music, but everything else is separate on our iPhones?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    iTunes and iCloud are different accounts. You can both use the same ID for the store login and share your music etc., and use different ID's to log in to iCloud, thereby keeping your calendars etc separate.

    I caught my phone 4. Had to buy a new one, lost all contacts, and calendar photos. how can I recover them?

    What does "I caught my phone 4" mean?
    All contacts, calendars, photos etc should be on your computer as the iphone is designed to be synced to your computer.
    Just sync them to your new iphone.
