Syncing gmail contact groups with ipad2

I wish to sync my gmail contacts groups using microsoft exchange on the iPad2. Everything syncs correctly except the gmail groups I have created for my contacts. Anyone have a solution ?

I just set up syncing with Gmail Contacts for my wife's iPad this morning. IOS doesn't handle Groups. I've seen lots of gripes about this in many places online. I've also seen it suggested that we should suggest this as a "feature" to Apple. I'm going to look all day today for a place to do this. I hope you will, too. Good luck!

Synching gmail contact groups with the iPhone

Can I import my gmail contact groups into an iPhone/Macbook? Do I need to put them in the iContacts or some other way. Thank you..

Found out I was using Outlook 2000. Syncing won't work unless you use Outlook 2003 or higher. I got around this by going into Outlook contacts and did the following steps under the file tab I:
1-Export to file
2-Comma Separated Values (Windows)
3-Named file
4-Saved file to desktop
Then I copied the contacts file to mobile thumb and imported them to Windows Address on another computer. From there I synced with my IPhone.
I found out Windows Address mirrors anything under Outlook. Because my Outlook is old and in the wrong format using my Windows Address will do the same thing thus I needed to copy info to another computer in order to use Windows Address. I will upgrade Outlook and see how that works but for now I have a temporary fix to problem.
Hope this helps.

Sync Gmail contacts & Calendar with iPhone?

Is it possible to sync the contacts and calendar in Gmail with iPhone?

I believe there is an option under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences to sync contact information with a Gmail online address book, and the same for a Yahoo online address book, but not for calendar events.

Possible to sync just ONE Gmail contact group?

So I'm wondering if it's possible to synchronize just one Gmail contact group with my Blackberry contacts. Like, I have about 15 Gmail contact groups -- one group for co-workers, one group for publicists who send me press releases, one group for friends, etc. I only want the addresses in my friends group to be sync'd with my Blackberry. Is this possible? Or do I have to let them all sync, and then manually delete the contacts I don't want from my Blackberry?

Hey eggcream,
The contact list "My Contacts" is the list that synchronizes.
You can remove this label in your Gmail contacts from those of whom you do not wish to have synchronized over.

I need help on syncing groups with PC Suite. When browsing contacts with Phone Browser, I can edit/view contacts, but no info about the groups I've defined on my phone.
I've also tried syncing contacts with Lotus Notes but no groups were exported.
This is a very important feature for my job.
Thanks ,
Silvio

if you are using the ovi.com, i would suggest you get your contacts squared away and sync them elsewhere, that is going to be deleted soon, if not already.
i had issues syncing my data with nokia services for the longest time. it was good, then they "fixed" the nokia suite and it wasnt....then there was ovi suite and that botched them all too.
i used to sync directly to my outlook with the 9500, and then through my other devices until ovi suite when i grew tired of the challenges with the contacts.
eventually, i ended up signing up with office365 to get an exchange account for $5/mo.
i think that the devs for the software products only use thier nokia exchange accounts when testing, which goes around the issues that we have had.
i would create either a google account and sync there, or if you want to also sync directly to an outlook, create a live/hotmail/outlook.com email address and then download the hotmail connector application for your pc, and then it will sync your wireless devices and outlook like a free exchange server and sync contacts/calendar/email.
if you go that route, you can get the hotmail connector here: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/outlook/microsoft-office-outlook-hotmail-connector-overview-HA0102...

You should have signed in with that address in the first place, but there is a workaround: go to System preferences>Mail, Contacts@ Calendars and add your @me.com address as an account there.

Gmail contact group

I would like to use the part of gmail contacts (gmail contacts group) in my iPhone. The contacts should be synced.
As far as i understand, this is not possible without apps like Smart Contacts Sync for Google Account.
Has anyone successfully tried? I would appreciate post from people who have tried and it worked.
IOS 6.1.4
iTunes 11.0.063

Is it really not related? I forgot to write:
It was possible to select contacts for syncing In the older iTunes version, I read about it, but have not tried with older versions.
Now, version 11 it is not possile any more. I am suprised noone had those problems.

ITunes Unable to Sync Google Contact Groups?

Seems the previous topic on "iTunes Unable to Sync Google Contact Groups?" was archived without a fix being reported!
I have iTunes (version 9.0.3.15) running on Windows Vista and iPhone 3Gs (version 3.1.1) and this issue with not being able to select sub groups in Google Contacts is still buggin' me... a lot!
Has anyone heard if Apple have fixed this?
Thanks, Adam.

I just got off the phone with Apple support. They said this feature is not supported. It was, but not anymore.
You would think that this would be pretty easy to figure out.
I'm just as frustrated as the rest of you.

My blackberry tour does not sync my contacts anymore with outlook 2007. I do not get an error message. Help!!

My blackberry tour does not sync my contacts anymore with outlook 2007. I do not get an error message. Help!!

Norton is probably the issue. It can really screw things up, that is one reason I never use it. See if you can temporarily disable it and then try the sync and see if that works.
On a Mac, there is a way to run a program that repairs permissions for the user, not a Windows thing.

I cannot sync my contact groups from Outlook 2010 (Win 7) onto my iPad. Can anyone help please ?

I cannor sync my contact groups from Outlook 2010 (Win 7) onto my iPad. Can anyone help please ?

in Itunes, once you connect the iPad, do you see the 'info' tab? Tap that and scroll down and see if outlook is chosen as the place to sync contacts from. If not, check it and sync and see if your contacts move over.

Sending to a shared contact group with subgroups fail

Hello all,
I am hoping someone can help me with this one, as I have researched non stop and cannot find an answer.
SCENARIO:
Outlook 2010 (with all the latest updates)
Exchange 2010
Windows 7 x64
We are a group of 15 users. All 15 of us add a shared mailbox used for communications into our Outlook client so we can access and monitor the entire mailbox, including contacts.
When trying to send a communication to a Contact group that is in the shared mailbox contacts, it will work fine unless there is another contact group within that group (subgroup). The email will bounce back with the following error:
[email protected] #550 5.4.4 ROUTING.NoConnectorForAddressType; unable to route for address type ##
If you send to a contact group with a subgroup from your own local contacts, it works fine.
If you send to a contact group without a subgroup, it works fine.
If you log directly into the shared mailbox and send from there, it works fine.
This issue appears ONLY to occur when sending to a contact group that has a subgroup within it from a shared contact list.
Based on my investigation, it appears that Outlook is trying to look for the subgroups within the local contact list, not the location of the actual contact group itself. Perform the following steps:
Add an additional (or shared) mailbox to your Outlook profile.
In the shared mailbox contact list, create 2 contact groups. (Test 1 and Test 2).
Add Test 2 into the Test 1 group. In Test 2 group, create/add a contact. (This may easiest be done by the shared mailbox itself)
Ensure you are logged into your original profile, and Right click the Test 1 group and Create->Email.
You will notice right away if you expand the Test 1 group, it will show up Test 2 (Unknown) and if you try and double click Test 2 to see it's properties, it says it cannot find it. If you perform this same step while logged into the shared mailbox directly,
it is able to locate the contact.
Any information I have found on this bounceback references a bug where a link in an email who try to send to a contact using MAILTO instead of SMTP. However, this is not the scenario I am in.
It is currently not feasible to have everyone add all these contact groups into their own contact list, as these groups change all the time.
If anyone has any ideas how this could be fixed, or have maybe other suggestions of how to use and access groups with subgroups for communications without logging into the shared mailbox, that would be great. We are unable to login to the shared mailbox
directly anymore as we are doing away with shared passwords.
Thanks all

Hello,
How did you select the recipients when composing email? Did you click the To button and select it from the Address Book or use the auto-complete list? If you select from the auto-complete list, please try deleting the contact group from the auto-complete
list and then test again.
In addition, since the bounceback error is similar to the MAILTo bug, we may try to install the hotfix to take a chance.
