Synch/merge between exchange and yahoo

i have duplicate contacts across my Exchange address book (which is the source of all my iPhone contacts, both work and personal) and my Yahoo address book. The iMac's Address Book application synchs with both Yahoo and Exchange. So, not only is the Address Book got some dupes, but with MobileMe, synching all Mac Address Book contacts on my iPhone I have dupes there too.
I've tried merging contacts into one, but it's not allowed since the source is different accounts. Any workarounds or future solutions for this?

Ok the best we were able to do so far was to backup the Mac contacts, do a merge on Mac contacts, then sync mac contacts to gmail, then delete mac contacts, do a merge and duplicates in gmail, then sync back to iPhone.
Now here is what I am afraid of. If I add contacts using the iPhone, in the future, will it go to Mac contacts.. or gmail?
SCRATCH THAT: Once you use the above method, any contacts added from the iPhone should also be added to G-mail , NOT to your Mac contacts

  • I have Exchange and Yahoo accounts on my iPhone 4. At least 1 email a day I send as a reply fails to leave my outbox of my Exchange account.

    I have Exchange and Yahoo accounts on my iPhone 4. At least 1 email I send from out thru my Exchange account fails to send and it simply refuses to leave the outbox. The only guaranteed way of sending it is to change the sender to my yahoo account. Note that is ONLY occurs on replies to existing emails, never new emails.
    It is only certain mails that fail. Even if I delete the mail and write another reply it will still fail.
    Could it be content related? It happened on IOS4 & 5.
    I've asked one of the staff in the Apple shop and he said he's seen this before but doesnt know the answer - not really helpful if you're trying to work off your iPhone :-(

    Thanks razmee209.
    I would agree with you if I still couldnt send the reply by changing the sender to my yahoo account; but as I mentioned before - whenever the mail fails to send, I can ALWAYS send it by changing the sender to my yahoo account.
    I agree that it must be something within the original mail, but why does it trigger a failure if I reply from my exchange account and not my yahoo yahoo account.
    I can delete the Exchange account and re-add it, but it makes no difference. I've also rebooted the phone but again, no difference.

  • Problems with synching calendars between iPhone and Outlook 2007 on Windows

    I recently purchased a copy of windows 7 ultimate 64. It was an English version, but since it is ultimate I downloaded and changed it to Danish - so far so good...
    I have synch'ed between outlook and iPhone on a Vista platform without problems, but now on windows 7 when I sync - the result is, that on my iPhone the meetings, work schedules and birthdays I have in my calendar is shown a day too soon!!
    I have checked that both iPhone and Outlook start the week on Mondays, so that is not an issue - I have updated my iPhone to the newest software with out any luck - so now I try and write here instead - hopefully someone can help me...
    thanks in advance

    yes they were set to the same timezone - which puzzled me a lot...
    I lost a lot of sleep, but I can now say that I have solved the problem...
    What I did was, that I un-installed microsoft office (desperate I know!) - then ran a sync with the iPhone choosing to overwrite the Calendar in the phone - as there was no calendar present - it deleted what was on the phone. Then I re-installed Microsoft office, by doing that, I didn't loose anything because the user files was still present including mail setting etc. - resynced the iPhone - and now it works...
    Just can't figure out what went wrong in the first place...
    thank you for your answer

  • How to synch calendars between iPad and MacBook Pro?

    How do I synch calendars between iPad and MacBook Pro?

    Thank you for your help. However, I still have no connection; could it be that the laptop is signed in through my account and the iPad through my wife's?
    If so, must I delete her iCloud account and reestablish it as mine?
    Thank you

  • HT5826 can't synch ibooks between ipad and iphone

    Have done everything that
    HT5826: iBooks: How to sync iBooks between devices, says and still no complete synch between iphone and ipad

    Yes it is, but it's also quite understandable. Apple has no way to know where non-iBookstore ebooks originated and whether they're legal copies or not, so they can't risk the liability of making possibly copyright infringing copies of them, automatically sending them to multiple devices. If you do it via manual syncs with iTunes however the legal liability is with you if they're illegal copies. Thus you can't store slide-loaded ebooks in iCloud or have them automatically sent to all your devices like you can with books purchased from the iBookstore.
    Maybe one day Apple will be able to convince the publishers to allow them to implement an iBooks Match scheme like the iTunes Match scheme for music, but given the notorious conservatism of book publishers and the difficulty of automatically fingerprinting books with many different editions vs music recordings for matching purposes I wouldn't hold my breath.

  • Identified faces not merging between iphoto and aperture

    I've been using both iphoto and aperture programs interchangeably to organize my photos and assumed that the work I was doing in one program was updating the other.  Most of the work has been merged between the programs, but I noticed today that the faces I've identified in one program has not merged to the other and I can't figure out how to get them to merge that information   I have almost 11,000 photos and it's taking me a huge amount of time to identify faces - definitely don't want to do it twice.  Any ideas out there?

    Yes, it's enabled in aperture, thank you.  I've identified faces in both programs, but the ones I've id'd in iphoto are only showing for that person in iphoto.  If I look at the same person (face) in aperture, different photos show (just the ones I've identified while I was using aperture identify faces).  I thoiught they would merge and update back and forth, but they haven't.

  • How to synch messages between ipad and iphone?

    I see older info on this but nothing current: how do I synch messages between my iphone and ipad?  Only some of them synch, and not necessarily only those sent from other iphones. I'm using OS7.

    The new info is the same as the old info. Nothing has changed.
    You have to use the iPhone number as the contact address on both devices. Settings>Messages>Send & Receive at>You can be reached by iMessages at. You have to select the phone number in there for both devices.
    Try signing out of Messages on both devices and start all over again. Settings>Messages>iMessage>Off. Restart both devices and then turn Messages on again on both devices starting with the phone.
    Messages only work with other iOS devices and Mac computers running Mountain Lion or Mavericks.

  • Synching calendars between itunes and iphone 5 no longer works.

    Syncing calendars between itunes and iphone 5 no longer works.  I do not get any errors, however calendar items are not updated. 
    I am syncing via USB on a Windows 8 computer.  It worked a couple of weeks ago.  Since then itunes has had its weekly update, my IOS may have been updated, and I've run a malware removal program on my computer. I curently have iTunes 11.1.3.8  and iOS 7.0.4.  I read the posts and verified ICloud was turned off. 
    I really need to be able to sync my computer and iphone again.  Any suggestions?

    So you'll either need to attempt further repair yourself or take the iPhone to some unauthorized repair shop, pay them, and hope they fix it correctly.
    The iPhone 5 has no Touch ID, and an iPhone 5S should still be under warranty, so I'm puzzled as to what you really have and were attempting. If you do have a 5S, why you didn't get it serviced under warranty?
    Regards.

  • Difference between Exchange and IMAP tabs when setting up a mail account

    I understand that for iPhone to communicate with Exchange, IMAP access is required:
    "Exchange email accounts must be configured for IMAP to work with iPhone" (from the iPhone user guide)
    My questions is, what (exactly) is the difference between the IMAP and Exchange tabs when setting up a mail account on the iPhone? I have it working with secure IMAP inbound (port 993) and SMTP outbound (port 25) on my Exchange Server 2003 server; however I would like to know the difference between plain "IMAP" and "Exchange" in the iPhone configuration.
    Searching the forums has revealed lots of people asking how to set up IMAP on Exchnage (Microsoft documentation would seem a good place to start), but I don't seem to be able to answer this question.
    If anybody knows the answer, I'd be most grateful. One post suggested that there is no difference; however I can't imagine Apple cluttering the interface with an option if there is an existing feature that's identical!

    Thanks for answering Lawrence. I'm not using Outlook as the computer I sync with is running Mac OS X with Office for Mac 2004, but guess it considers Outlook and Entourage to be the same.
    I'm still a little bit confused when you say "takes the settings" as most Outlook clients are not configured for IMAP (MAPI-RPC is the native protocol, although some may use HTTP-RPC) and mine didn't seem to take any settings automatically - I had to set it up manually on the iPhone.
    Cheers, Mark

  • Calendar: iPhone calendar syncing between Gmail and Yahoo! Apple ID

    Having a problem with sharing calendars between two iPhones (5C to 5S).
    My wife shares her calendar with a business partner, and they both shared a calendar on their previous iPhones (both 4S).  When they up upgraded their phones to 5 (my wife has a 5C and her business partner has a 5S) and iOS 7, their calendar sharing changed.  Here's a quick description of the issue:
    - if my wife (with an @gmail.com Apple ID) creates an event on her phone and invites her friend, her friend (with an @yahoo.ca Apple ID) does not receive the invitation in the calendar inbox, but she receives an email in her yahoo.ca inbox.  If she tries to follow the link in the email to join the event, it opens a safari window and asks her friend to sign in to Google calendar, which never happened prior to the upgrades.  And she can't sign in and join because it's not supposed to be a Google calendar event.  Her not receiving the calendar invitations, and only getting them via email and not being able to add them without signing in to Google calendar is the main issue.  Why is she receiving emails instead of the calendar inbox invitations?
    - if my wife's business partner creates an event, it all works fine (my wife gets the invitation, can accept to join, and can see the events in her calendar on her phone.
    I've tried several of the fixes for not being able to send and receive calendar invitations, and made sure receiving in-app notifications was turned on in iCloud on my end (currently waiting for business partner to confirm the same).
    Prior to the upgrades, there was no issue with sharing.  I'm not sure if it's because all calendar sharing has to go through iCloud, which I am currently setting up on both phones (and may render this post moot).  Just wanted to know if anyone has experienced something similar with the receiving emails and not the inbox notifications.
    Thanks!

    Are all the devices set to actually sync calendar entries to iCloud?  If any of them are set to sync with some other service (gMail, Yahoo, Hotmail, etc.) while some of them are set to use iCloud then they can not sync.  Or if they are set to iCloud but only set to sync say contact and bookmarks then they will not sync.  They all have to be set to iCloud and they all have to have the calendar option selected.

  • Sync conflicts between Exchange and Gmail/IMAP/Mobile Me accounts

    Hello.
    I have managed to configure my exchange account in Mail, and it seemed to be working fine until yesterday. Today however, I am experiencing some odd behaviour in my mail accounts:
    - My two Gmail accounts (IMAP, syncing through Mobile me) are moving incoming email straight to ALL MAIL and skipping inbox.
    - I am not receiving new emails from my exchange server to my exchange address, but to my Gmail address (not to the inbox but to All mail).
    Should I turn off syncing through Mobile Me since I am already using IMAP?
    I desactivated the exchange account and reset the sync data, now at least the Gmail accounts seem to be working.
    Anyone having these kinds of problems with the exchange

    Having the same problem and recently it is duplicating contacts as high at 10+ times in some cases, did you get a fix for this? if so find me on beehive and share it with me please?

  • Synching Calendar between iPhone and Outlook 2007

    When I make a calendar entry in Outlook 2007 on my PC, it automatically synchs with my iPhone through iCloud.   But when I make a calendar entry in my iPhone, it does not show up in Outlook anymore.  This just started about a month ago.  Under settings, in iCloud, I do have Calendar "ON."   I tried turning off Calendar in iCloud and then turning it back on - when I did that, the PC calendar that was showing there is now gone, and only the iCloud calendar is showing and it is checked.  
    Any ideas?   Thanks!

  • Improving performance in a merge between local and remote query

    If you try to merge two queries, one local (e.g. table in Excel) and one remote (table in SQL Server), the entire remote table is loaded in memory in order to apply the NestedJoin condition. This could be very slow. In my case, the goal is to import only
    those rows that have a product name listed in a local Excel table.
    I used the SelectRows by using the list of values of the local query (having only one column) in order to apply an "IN ('value1', 'value2', ...)" condition in the SQL statement generated by Power Query (see examples below).
    Questions:
    Is there another way to do that in "M"?
    Is there a way to build such a query (filter a table by using values obtained in another query) by using the user interface?
    Is this a scenario that could be better optimized in the future by improving query folding made by Power Query?
    Thanks for the feedback!
    Local Query
    let
        LocalQuery = Excel.CurrentWorkbook(){[Name="LocalTable"]}[Content]
    in
        LocalQuery
    Remote Query
    let
        Source = Sql.Databases("servername"),
        Database = Source{[Name="databasename"]}[Data],
        RemoteQuery = OasisDataMart{[Schema="schemaname",Item="tablename"]}[Data]
    in
        RemoteQuery
    Merge Query (from Power Query user interface)
    let
        Merge = Table.NestedJoin(LocalQuery,{"ProductName"},RemoteQuery,{"ProductName"},"NewColumn",JoinKind.Inner),
        #"Expand NewColumn" = Table.ExpandTableColumn(Merge, "NewColumn", {"Description", "Price"}, {"NewColumn.Description", "NewColumn.Price"})
    in
        #"Expand NewColumn"
    Alternative merge approach (editing M - is it possible in user interface?)
    let
        #"Filtered Rows" = Table.SelectRows(RemoteQuery, each List.Contains ( Table.ToList(LocalQuery), [ProductName] ))
    in
        #"Filtered Rows"

    Bingo! You've find a serious performance issue!
    The very same result can be produced in a fast or slow way.
    Slow technique: do the RemoveColumns before the SelectRows (maybe you don't have to apply any transformations to the table you want to filter before the SelectRows - I haven't tested this):
    let
        Source = Sql.Databases(".\k12"),
        AdventureWorksDW2012 = Source{[Name="AdventureWorksDW2012"]}[Data],
        dbo_FactInternetSales = AdventureWorksDW2012{[Schema="dbo",Item="FactInternetSales"]}[Data],
        #"Removed Columns" = Table.RemoveColumns(dbo_FactInternetSales,{"SalesOrderLineNumber", "RevisionNumber", "OrderQuantity", "UnitPrice", "ExtendedAmount", "UnitPriceDiscountPct", "DiscountAmount", "ProductStandardCost", "TotalProductCost",
    "SalesAmount", "TaxAmt", "Freight", "CarrierTrackingNumber", "CustomerPONumber", "OrderDate", "DueDate", "ShipDate", "DimCurrency", "DimCustomer", "DimDate(DueDateKey)", "DimDate(OrderDateKey)", "DimDate(ShipDateKey)", "DimProduct", "DimPromotion", "DimSalesTerritory",
    "FactInternetSalesReason"}),
        #"Filtered Rows" = Table.SelectRows(#"Removed Columns", each List.Contains(Selection[ProductKey],[ProductKey]))
    in
        #"Filtered Rows"
    Fast technique: do the RemoveColumns after the SelectRows
    let
        Source = Sql.Databases(".\k12"),
        AdventureWorksDW2012 = Source{[Name="AdventureWorksDW2012"]}[Data],
        dbo_FactInternetSales = AdventureWorksDW2012{[Schema="dbo",Item="FactInternetSales"]}[Data],
        #"Filtered Rows" = Table.SelectRows(dbo_FactInternetSales, each List.Contains(Selection[ProductKey],[ProductKey])),
        #"Removed Columns" = Table.RemoveColumns(#"Filtered Rows",{"SalesOrderLineNumber", "RevisionNumber", "OrderQuantity", "UnitPrice", "ExtendedAmount", "UnitPriceDiscountPct", "DiscountAmount", "ProductStandardCost", "TotalProductCost",
    "SalesAmount", "TaxAmt", "Freight", "CarrierTrackingNumber", "CustomerPONumber", "OrderDate", "DueDate", "ShipDate", "DimCurrency", "DimCustomer", "DimDate(DueDateKey)", "DimDate(OrderDateKey)", "DimDate(ShipDateKey)", "DimProduct", "DimPromotion", "DimSalesTerritory",
    "FactInternetSalesReason"})
    in
        #"Removed Columns"
    I think that Power Query team should take a look at this.
    Thanks!
