Syncing contacts with outlook

I finally have my first issue. My iPhone 4 simply won't sync with outlook. I've tried changing it to windows and back to outlook, but nothing works. I'm glad I had saved my contacts through funambol or I'd be screwed. Anyone have a clue what could be going on??? I could easily sync with the 3G and 3GS with no issues, but it's not working with the new phone.

Thanks, but I'm familiar with these steps. Outlook was syncing with my 3GS with no problems, but it's an issue with the new iPhone 4. Very strange!!!

  • Iphone4 won't sync contact with Outlook/Exchange 2007 - can't afford to lose these contacts either

    Hello,
    I have a user who has been using an iPhone 4 for over a year now, and has built up a large list of Contacts on the device. Unfortunately, unlike every other iPhone user, his Contacts have not been sync'ing with Outlook.
    I know I can go into "Settings", "Mail, Contacts, Calendar", Contacts and "Default Account" and change it here. However, I do not want to lose any of these iPhone Contacts. I would like to be able to back them up, and then sync them into Outlook.
    Can someone please advise on the safest steps to do this?
    Thank you,
    Liam

    A couple of weeks ago a similar question was posted and a member responded with the following link

    I haven't tried it since we force encrypt our backups through IPCU, but is looks intriguing and like it might work for you.  According to their web page they export backed up contacts to a csv file so they could be imported into the Outlook client....hope this helps. 

  • My 3gs won't sync contacts with outlook 2007

    No matter what i try, i can't get my 3gs to sync my contacts with outlook 2007.
    Anybody had this problem and figure it out?

    What have you tried so far?
    Which iOS is your phone running on?
    Basic troubleshooting steps.
    1) Connect your phone to iTunes; click on your phone's name; Select "sync conatcts with outlook" from the other window.
    2) Make sure your outlook is configured to a mail account. If you don't use mail account on outlook, configure it anyhow.

  • Unable to sync contacts with Outlook 2011

    I have just bought a new macbook air with new outlook 2011.
    I have followed all the instructions but still cannot manage to sync my outlook contacts with iphone contacts and viceversa. It does work with the calendar so this seems very odd. I am a mac newbie. can please somebody help me?
    thank you

    The comment from Apple support was partially true.  If you search the web you will find that Office 2011 (latest Mac version of Office) has never been able to sync with an iPhone.  Older versions (maybe), and Windows versions possibly, but not the latest Mac version.  MS changed the format of just about everything in Outlook 2011.  It was MS that broke the iTunes ability to sync, not Apple.
    So, even though Office 2011 works just fine on a Mac, you loose the ability to sync with your iPhone.  Thank the folks in Redmond for this.

  • Syncing contacts with Outlook removes "display as" name in Outlook

    *MacBook Air
    *VMware with XP SP2 and Outlook 2007
    *Outlook account is "@mac.com" setup as IMAP
    When syncing contacts, the email address is stripped from the outlook address book. The info is still there in Outlooks "Contacts", but not in the "Address Book".
    The Address Book is access from Tools > Address Book. Or when creating a new email and pressing the "To:" button.
    After the iPhone syncs with Outlook, the Outlook email addresses are stripped from the "To:" address book making it impossible to add a usable email address to the new message. A name shows up in the "To:" field, won't send, b/c Outlook doesn't recognize an email addy connected with the name.
    Does your address book maintains email addresses after a sync?

    Contacts and Calendar sync correctly otherwise.

  • ITunes does not sync contacts with outlook

    Hi,
    After upgrading from office 2003 to 2013 no contact is being synced with my iPhone over iTunes (I'm using Windows-7).
    When selecting "sync" it says that syncing is in progress and it takes a while to complete the syncing but no contact is being synced with outlook contacts.
    Uninstalling and reintalling of iTunes didn't help.
    Thanks

    iDevices can only be synced via iCloud or to a supported application on the computer via iTunes, but not both.  Turn off syncing via iCloud to enable the option in iTunes on the computer.

  • Cannot sync contacts with Outlook 2007

    I've googled how to do this and everything points to a method I have already tried that has not worked.
    It says I should go to the info tab of my iTunes / iPhone sync options and check Sync conatcts with, and choose Outlook. The problem is my drop down is empty and trying to click it does nothing.
    I'm running Outlook 2007, Windows XP, and iTunes

    Nevermind.
    My iTunes had been acting kinda funny in general so I rebooted my PC, when I did I got an error that a process with iTunes was hung. When the PC came back up it was able to sync my contacts to Outlook with out issue.

  • Sync contacts with outlook 2007

    I am having problems getting a good sync between Outlook 2007 and the iOS Contacts app in my iPhone.  Some don't show up, some get lost.  We use MS Exhange.

    Why are you running Mobile Me? calendars and contacts are no longer available there, your Hotmail address may be OK for an Apple ID but wion't work for email in iCloud,
    Outlook is dreadful anyhow, use emClient for iCloud.

  • Sync'ing contacts with Outlook no longer works

    Ipod Nano 4gb with latest iTunes 7.02.16. Problem was also present on previous version of iTunes.
    At one time, for a while after I bought my iPod nano, I could sync my Outlook contacts. It used to popup a message in Outlook asking for permission and I would say, yes, 10 minutes or whatever.
    Now iTunes just keeps saying "Cannot sync contacts with Outlook, try closing all instances of Outlook and restarting" but that suggestion does not solve the problem.
    Anybody know how to fix this?

    You should probably post your question in the iTunes or iPod discussions

  • Synced contacts with PC and shouldnt have - how to remove

    I recetnly synced on my PC and had the sync contacts with outlook checked, and should not have. Now my iPhone shows a group of contacts titled "On my PC" above the group now labeled "On MobileMe". MobileMe is my contacts and calendar that i sync with. Is there a way to remove this group "On My PC" from my iphone?
    Thanks
    Mike

    OK, first you're on the Windows forum so we can't really help you with a Mac.
    Second save the backup, wipe, and start over is the correction and it's a pain.
    Even if you have to do it one entry at a time you can get it all back.

  • IPhone4 iTunes sync Contacts w/ Outlook: field mapping?

    Where can I find something documenting the field mapping that iTunes uses to sync Contacts with Outlook?
    Thanks...

    Good question. Someone screwed up. I thought it was Outlook, but I think this is an itunes/Apple prob.
