Sync problem - all contacts not sync'd

Just got the Iphone and tried to sync the contacts from my Macbook Pro to my Iphone. Only some of the contacts downloaded.

Make sure under Info, All contacts is selected:
Hope this helps!

All contacts not syncing with curve 8900 and desktop 7

I've been trying this for a year and I've had no success. This 8900 is my 4th Blackberry. While I've done backups with the others this is the first time I've tried to sync the info. When I first synced I thought everything was OK, but then I noticed a lot of the contacts didnt sync. A lot of iportant ones. I've tried everything and hit a wall. I've gone thru all the 395 contacts, deleted a bunch, fixed a bunch and made everything ready. I've talked to Microsoft, AT&T and the BB folks and still nothing. When I synced it to my PC, 179 of 395 synced and the Outlook folder size is 297kb. I just synced to my laptop and only 124 synced and the folder size is 120kb. I checked the options on the 8900 contact list and it shows my gmail address as the name of my Contact list. I've NEVER loaded my gmail info on this or any other BB. I checked my gmail and there are NO contacts listed. Never have been. I followed the instructions, went to Default Services and there is no Contacts option, only Calendar and Messaging which have my primary email ([email protected]) as the services. I have loaded info for the Netzero email, Roadrunner email and Blackberry email. Did load the Yahoo account name but never connected it. Just checked the service books and there is no gmail info. There'sno option to rename the contact list and I can't see if there are any subfolders under it. I HAVE TO GET ALL THIS INFO TO A PLACE WHERE I CAN ACCESS IT TO TRANSFER TO A NEW NON-BLACKBERRY PHONE. I've literally spent hours researching, talking on the phone and it is still not working. I lost 3 days on it this we3ek that I was supposed to be on the other coast of Florida visiting a High School beauty thats down for a week, a cousin that's fighting cancer and a musician friend. I worked on the highest problem parts of the Space Shuttle Boosters and worked thru some seemingly impossible problems. As a result I had a mental breakdown and now have to depend on othersm whicdh I never did before. Seems like everybody that could help or might have info isn't sharing. I CAN'T BE THE FIRST PERSON THAT'S HAD THIS PROBLEM. PLEASE HELP ME!!!

Lost all contacts with sync?

lost all contacts with sync?

Same grief here - I've found this kind of problem goes back at least 4 years!
My 'old' iPod Touch lost my stored photos and Contact list when I had to reset it.
No problem, just Sync with iTunes.... now my photos and Contacts refuse to transfer from MacBook to Touch in any way I select iTunes Sync!!!
The pictures I'm not too worried about but I refuse to tap in 115 sets of Contact details.
And I'm still to find a straight forward sctual solution...

Anyone else haveing a problem with appointments not syncing, duplicate appointments when syncing with Outlook? Also, noticed that my primary SMTP disappeared, and I had to re-establish to send e-mail. Apple tech support was worthless.

Anyone else haveing a problem with appointments not syncing, duplicate appointments when syncing with Outlook? Noticed the problem a couple of days ago.
Also, noticed that my primary SMTP disappeared, and I had to re-establish to send e-mail.
Apple tech support was worthless on both issues.

Hi I am also in the UK, but not with Tiscali and am having the exact same problems. I can also send with wifi, but not 3G. I have tried amending all sorts of settings, including those above and amending the smtp server to the settings for my provider, but all to no avail.
It is thoroughly frustrating, as I cannot send emails unless I have wifi access.
Any further suggestions would be very welcome.

Contacts not syncing either way

I just noticed that my contacts are syncing -- either way.
I added a new contact to phone yesterday and have synced phone twice. New contact doesn't appear on my Mac.
So I changed one of the contacts on my Mac and synced again. The change didn't appear in the phone.
Are there any fixes for this? Thanks/

Hi,
same problem here: iPhone does not sync contacts any more, either way. I've searched Discussions, reinstalled iTunes after having deleted prefs and cache, reinitialised iSync history, restaured iPhone to factory setting, unlocked again with Ziphone 3.0, checked New phone in iTunes, nothing nothing nothing: no contacts were transferred from my Mac to the iPhone. I've tried to back up and erase my Addressbook: useless. I've tried adding a single contact. not synced. I've checked, and I don't have any particular custom filed on my Addressbook. I've noticed that on iTunes the contacts groups that I have on my AB, are not seen and checkable on the INFO tab, sync contacts section. It's like iTunes and AddressBook are not "communicating".
I can't believe such a vital function cannot work! and I have no clue what do to, since I refuse to reinstall Leopard for such an issue, too much of an hassle!
Please, help!

Contacts not synced - perform a repair installatio...

Just syncing contacts with Ovi Suite and it comes up with a failure message. Okay fine, but it's telling me to effectively reinstall Ovi Suite to fix it!
"Contacts not synced - Perform a repair installation of your Nokia Ovi Suite Then sync again. Error code: 83950003"
Seems it knows there's a specific bug and rather than fix it properly or provide a neat user experience so it's fixed under the hood, they just go for making the user do something they should never need to do.

I have seen this mostly happening due to Nokia Connectivity cable not working. Please try the steps provided below, might work.
1. Disconnect your phone from PC if connected.
2 .Open Control Panel and go to ‘Programs and Features’
3. From the list of available programs, choose ‘Nokia Connectivity Cable Driver’
4. Click on the ‘Change’ button on top toolbar.
5. In the setup dialog box that pops up next, choose ‘Repair’ and select ok. Wait for setup to complete.
6. Restart the computer if prompted.
7. Now connect your phone to the PC. Ovi suite (hopefully) should detect your mobile properly now and sync correctly .
Cheers

IMessage contacts not synced- read all previous threads

Hello, i am on a 2011 MBP operating on OSX Yosemite 10.10.1
I only have numbers in my Immessage conversations, instead of contacts like on my iPhone and iPad. I have iCloud synced on everything. Any ideas or fixes are greatly appreciated.

Please try the following…
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.

Why iPhone only allows sync ALL contacts, not selected groups?

THE OBJECTIVE: To back up the names and phone numbers I've manually input into my iPhone.
THE MONKEY WRENCH: When I plug my iPhone 3g into my Powerbook, under the Info tab is a Contacts section. The Sync Address Book contacts box is checked, and below that box are two choices: All contacts or Selected groups. Computer will not allow me to choose Selected groups, nor can I check off "Put new contacts created on this iPhone into this group", which sounds like, if working properly, would all me to back up my iPhones names and numbers. Please help!
If you're feeling motivated, you can check out my still unsolved post about trouble I've been having with synching TV shows and let me know if there's one solution to address both issues. Thanks a gazillion.

Step 1: Configure your iPhone for iCloud, go to Settings > iCloud and toggle the Contacts to Off. It will ask if you want to Keep your contacts that are present in your iPhone or Delete them. Delete only if you have a backup in your Mac or PC. We will be syncing your contacts again from your Mac or PC and upload it to iCloud.
Step 2: Now, sync contacts with iPhone using your Mac or PC.
Step 3: Next, go to Settings > iCloud and toggle the Contacts to On. This will Turn on the contacts again. You will get the following screen once you turn on the contacts under iCloud.
Step 4: You can click on Merge. This will upload your contacts to your iCloud account in a while.
Step 5: Go to the contacts app to verify if you have only all the contacts synced to your iCloud account.

I found out, that the problem what we have is our Public Folder Structure in the company. We have more as 40'000 public folders in this structure.
Now i find out that when i start my Outlook in a offline modus i can selct my special folder after i press the "Select Folder" button.
When i try the same thing in online modus the PC-Suite hangs...
The only combinations that i see is the Public Folder.
I try a test in the evening: I push the button "Select Folder" and have run my PC over the Night. On the next morning the Window was appear.
Also was is my problem the Public Folder Structure that the PC-Suite scans after i push the button "select Folder"
