Syncing contacts from Yahoo Mail to IPad

I have tried to sync my Yahoo contacts to my IPad without success. My wife, who also uses the IPad had been successful in syncing her Exchange contacts but I can't do so from Yahoo.
When I set up Yahoo mail as an account, it doesn't give you the option (in settings) to sync contacts. In setting up an Exchange account (which my wife did) there is a spot to indicate synching contacts in Settings. Any ideas on how to fix?

With your iPad connected to your computer go to the Info Pane and there are check boxes for syncing various items. From page 31 of the iPad Users Guide:
Contacts
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 or 2007 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.)
If you sync with Yahoo! Address Book, you only need to click Configure to enter your
new login information when you change your Yahoo! ID or password after you’ve
set up syncing.

    You can sync contacts between the Mac and the iPad and vice versa via Wi-Fi if you setup an iCloud account. You get 5GB of free space. This way you have backup and storage.

    If you use Outlook in windows for your email and contacts, when you first

  • How do i transfer contacts from yahoo to my mail?

    how do i transfer contacts from yahoo mail to my mail on my ipad2?

    I found this answer in another discussion and it worked-
    Yes, it's weird and cryptic. This is what you need to do.
    in settings, click mail, contacts , calendars
    you need to add two accounts:
    one for mail as a Yahoo account
    another per the instructions below
    Yahoo syncs contacts by adding a CardDAV account:
    Tap Mail, Contacts, Calendars
    Tap Add Account
    Tap Other and then tap Add CardDAV Account
    For the Server you need to enter carddav.address.yahoo.com
    Now type in the Yahoo! ID (full email address) and password you use to sign in to your Yahoo! Contacts
    why not all in one? who knows!
    Ps. You might have to do several tries with and without the .xxx extesion to the account name
    Yahoo has multiples with att and all othr isp's

  • Why are my contacts from yahoo not syncing correctly?

    When I sync my contacts from Yahoo, they corrupt the entries on my iPhone 3GS. Some entries are duplicated, some data within enties are doubled or tripled, and some extra characters are inserted in the entry fields. The contacts won't copy to my iPad 2 at all. Is this an issue with Windows 7, Yahoo, iTunes, or? Is it possible to sync them accurately?

    Thanks Meg, this works, at least in part.  Now the Contacts app populated, but only with 99 contacts, hardly all of them.  Do you know how to get all my Google contacts to sync?
    Also, should I delete the Gmail account I had previously set up on the iPad now that I have set up as an Exchange account?

  • TS3988 My wife bought an iPad Air and synced contact from our PC (Outlook), now all our contacts in Outlook have gone and we have to go to iCloud to get them, and even then they are a bit jumbled. How do I get my data back onto my PC?

    My wife bought an iPad Air and synced contact from our PC (Outlook), now all our contacts in Outlook have gone and we have to go to iCloud to get them, and even then they are a bit jumbled. How do I get my data back onto my PC?

    If you can see the iCloud contacts in Outlook, you can copy them back to your PC by selecting all the contacts (click one, then press Control-A), then drag and drop the selected contacts to Contacts under My Contacts on the left sidebar of Outlook.
    If you want to copy your calendar back to Outlook, select your iCloud calendar on the left sidebar of Outlook, switch to the list view (select View from the ribbon, then click Change View>List), select your events (click on a single event, then press Control-A), then control drag and drop them to Calendar under My Calendars on the left sidebar.
    Then you can sign out of iCloud on the iCloud control panel and your local copies will still be there.  If you want to add your iCloud email account back to iCloud, you can do this with these settings: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4864.

  • How Can I sync contacts FROM my iPhone TO my AOL E-mail?

    How can I sync contacts FROM my iPhone TO my AOL E-mail? In other words, I want to keep all of my iPhone contact information intact and make AOL "mirror" it (and not wipe it out when I sync thru iTunes).

    The iPhone supports syncing contacts with Outlook 2003 or 2007, or with Windows Contacts with Windows, and with the Address Book or with the Entourage address book on a Mac.
    If you aren't currently using one of the supported applications on your computer for contact info - the supported address book application on your computer is empty, before syncing contacts enter one contact in the supported application on your computer. Make this contact up if needed, which can be deleted later. This will provide a merge prompt with the first sync for this data with the supported application on your computer, which you want to select.
    After this, you can export the contacts from the supported application on your computer that is supported for import by your AOL online address book - if AOL includes such an option.

  • Question: How do I sync contacts from my iPad to my MacBook Pro running Mavericks?

    How do I sync contacts from my iPad to my MacBook Pro running Mavericks?
    rbarge

    Contacts sync via iCloud.
    Set up iCloud on your iPad and your MBP, with the same iCloud account on both, with the same Apple ID.
    On the Mac you set this up with System Preferences > iCloud, and have Contacts checked in the box on the right.
    It looks very much the same on the iPad, Settings > iCloud.
    If you have set this up and it's still not working, then sign out of and then back into your iCloud accounts.
