Syncing addresses from iPhone 3 to my iMac

My iPhone 3 has 1200 addresses in it, but for some reason my iMac only has 517. I've tried syncing to transfer all my addresses from my iPhone but it doesn't transfer the other 700 addresses. How to I make a complete transfer of ALL my iPhone contacts to my iMac?

problem solved. how I don't know, but now it's displaying all addresses.

  • Syncing contacts from iPhone back to iMac (Entourage)

    Briefly, after both my Time Machine and hard drive failed, I lost all my data. My Entourage contacts re-main on my iPhone, and I want to sync them back to Entourage. I understand the process of "merging,"but I have run into a few obstacles: I am using the latest version of iTunes (7.6.2), by the way. First, under Preferences, I have no options available under "Syncing." Then, when I connect my iPhone, and select "Info," I have no options here, either. I do have a number of contacts in Entourage in my iMac, but, apparently, iTunes no longer recognizes the existence of this program, so I can go no-
    where. (My Entourage Contacts have been duplicated in my Address Book, but that doesn't show up, either. Something must be terribly corrupted.) I'm both frustrated and perplexed, so any help would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks in advance. pah

    Something to check when syncing contacts from iphone back to computer, make sure to open address book and enter at least one contact.
    Then when you connect the iphone, you should get a message asking if you want to merge the data.
    Click merge and this should copy all contacts from the iphone back into address book.
    the same goes with ical also.
    Make sure there is at least one event in ical.
    Now to move the data in address book and ical to entourage is set in the entourage preferences in the sync services section.
    Hope this helps.

  • HT1414 If ive synced everything from iphone to iMac where do i find it now on the imac

    If ive synced everything from iphone to iMac where do i find it now on the imac

    Define "everything"...
    Contacts will be in whatever Contacts on your Mac assuming you actually selected that in iTunes. Calendar items in iCal. Reminders/Notes depend on what version of OS X you're running...

  • Syncing contacts FROM IPhone MANUAL.  PC

    So this is basically a continuation of bsohl's thread Syncing Contacts FROM iPhone?.
    For those of you that are in a similar situation to this:
    1. You're on a PC.
    2. Your primary storage space for contacts is your phone.
    3. Your email client isn't compatable with ITunes.
    4. You want to back up your contacts.
    Follow these few steps to make your backup happen:
    1. Sign up for a new yahoo email address.
    2. In the info tab in ITunes select Sync Contacts with Yahoo Address Book.
    3. At the prompt enter in your new yahoo email address and password.
    4. Hit 'apply'. At this point you may have to hit sync or it might just do it automatically. I can't remember.
    Here comes the magic
    5. You will see the following prompt: http://a425.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/89/l_dfc21c0b2fd5015780fbaad7fddb3 798.gif
    6. Select 'merge'.
    7. Wait a few seconds.
    8. Check your contacts in your yahoo email account and they should all be there.
    9. Sweet!
    10. Good luck.

    You can also sync your contacts to Microsoft Address Book. Go to the info pane with your phone connected to change the settings.
    Your iphone backup also contains your contact info. So before you sync, back up your phone manually, here's how to:
    Disable autosync in iTunes/settings/devices, connect your phone to your new computer and right click on it in the device list and choose backup. iTunes will backup your phone without syncing.
    Do the same to transfer your purchases by choosing "transfer purchases" this time.
    When you connect your phone for the first time, all media content will be erased. But you can restore your settings and app data from your manual backup afterwards.
    Don't forget to set up at least one contact and event on your new computer to be able to merge calendars and contacts when you sync the phone for the first time.

  • HT1296 how do i sync photos from iphone to pc

    how do i sync photos from iphone to pc

    I have the same issue. I've already read the iPhone user guide which didn't help.
    The user guide explains how to turn on Photo Sync in iTunes but no specifics of where the imported photos will be. I tried syncing a few times and I cannot find the photos on my PC.iTunes transferred all my PC photos *to* the phone, but not the other way around.
    I'd imagine they should be in the folder that is specified in iTunes.
    Any help would be appreciated!

  • How do you Sync Contacts from iPhone to MacBook?

    How do you Sync Contacts from iPhone to MacBook?
    Hi,  Does anyone know how to do this without the need for me to upgrade to Lion on my MAcBook Pro and use the iCloud?
    I put all my contacts into my iPhone and I'd like them now on my MAcBook Pro.
    Thanks,

    Click on your iDevice on the sidebar of iTunes and then go to the info tab at the top. check the box shown here:
    This will put the contacts from an iDevice to the computer. You can then check the same box on the (let's say iPad) that doens't have any contacts and they will go from your comp to your iPad.

  • How do I sync photos from Iphone to Ipad?

    How can I sync photos from Iphone 4S to Ipad 4th generation?

    The only way is to sync to iTunes on a computer and then sync from iTunes to the other device, using USB.
    If you're thinking of using photo stream, that won't work now, since only photos taken AFTER each device was logged into photo stream will sync between them.  All older photos must be synced via a computer.
    The exception to this is if you use dropbox or some other service to act as the middleman.

  • How do I sync photos from iPhone to my PC?

    How do I sync photos from iPhone to my PC? I just can't seem to figure it out. All I want to do is take the pictures i took with my iPhone camera and sync them to a folder on my PC (Windows Vista). Thanks for the help.

    I know exactly what you're going through. I may win the prize for having the most number of photos on my iPhone (2,397) that couldn't get downloaded. I have never been able to export photos from my iPhone to any of my Macs using iPhoto or Image Capture. (And yes, all OS and apps are the latest revisions). Nor have any of the popular apps like Picasa2, Adobe Photoshop Elements, or Windows native Camera & Scanner Wizard been able to do it on my Windows machines. BUT, the only 3rd party app that I had any success with was the Tansee iPhone Transfer Photo program. It downloaded 884 photos from my iPhone before that app stopped working, for some reason. It cost $20USD and works on Windows only. You may have better luck than I downloading all your photos.

  • Is there any way to sync notes from iPhone 4 to MacBook Pro?

    Is there any way to sync notes from iPhone 4 to MacBook Pro?

    If the phone doesn't power on and isn't seen by the computer then you wouldn't be able to pull data off it with the USB connection to your computer.
    You could pursue data recovery if the notes are very valuable, but the cost can be similar to having data recovered from a failed computer drive(possibly prohibitively expensive).

  • HT201302 how do i backup photos from iPhone 5 to iMac, if my iPhone won't turn on

    how do i back up photos from iPhone 5 to iMac if my iPhone 5 will not turn on?

    If your iPhone will not turn on, then it's too late to perform a backup.  Backups must occur before catastrophes, as they cannot occur after a catastrophe.
    Of course, if you use Photo Stream or iCloud Photo Library, then your photos should already be on your Mac.
