TS1347 How do I sync with windows mail contacts with my iPhone 4S?

How do I sync with windows mail contacts with my iPhone 4S?  I want to move my email contact information from Windows Mail to my iPhone 4S

You don't need Outlook to sync contacts. You do have Windows Contacts available which is a supported address book application for syncing contacts with the iPhone.
Windows Live Mail is not an email client. Windows Live Mail is an email account that can be accessed via webmail access using a browser or with an email client such as with Outlook or Windows Mail on a PC.
You can export your Windows Live Mail contacts from your Windows Live Mail online address book for import into the Windows Contacts address book application on your PC which is supported for syncing contacts with your iPhone.

  • How do I copy my windows mail contacts to my iPad mini?

    how do I copy my windows mail contacts to my iPad mini?

    If your contacts are stored in the Windows Mail server i.e Hotmail, now Outlook.com, you can go in the iPad into Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars ->Accounts->Add Account,  Tap on Microsoft Hotmail, and add your Windows Live account there, and all your contacts will be synced over.

  • HT4191 i cant sync my windows seven contacts with itune because of the "over the air option cant be changed" help me

    i cant sync my windows seven contacts with itune because of the "over the air option cant be changed" help me

    This sounds like you configured the phone to sync contacts with iCloud or with an MS Exchange email account. If you want to sync directly with your computer you will need to disable the over the air sync settings on the iPhone.

  • How do I sync my calendar and contacts with the calendar and contacts on my phone? My laptop is Mac OS X, 10.6.8 and still has MobileMe on it.

    My MacBook Pro is a few years old and I recently got an iPhone 4S. I want to know how I sync my calendar and contacts with the calendar and contacts on my phone? My laptop is Mac OS X, 10.6.8 and still has MobileMe on it. I tried to download iCloud but then I'd have to download and pay for a new OS.
    If anyone could help me with this that would be great.

  • How do I sync my Calendar and Contacts with my Mac ?

    How do I sync my Calendar and Contacts between my iPhone4 and my Mac ?  It did until January. Now in iTunes the check box for syncing them is not present anymore. Instead I see the text "Your contacts are being synced over the air" (which doesn't happen).  Exactly the same occurs w.r.t. Calendar.  I do not understand why synchronisation was ok until January, but suddenly it doesn't work anymore.

  • How do I sync my address book contacts on my iphone and clear all other contacts on my phone (issue with icloud?)

    When I purchased my iphone 4S, I had all my old phone's information transfer over to my new phone. 
    I organized my address book on my mac powerbook and then hoped to sync my computer's address book to my phone - in hopes of erasing all the junky contacts on my iphone and only having the my address book contacts on my phone.
    I did all I could trying to make this happen (through iTunes) but it hasn't erased/replaced all of the contacts on my phone - I believe since my phone is synced to icloud.  So I'm stuck with a very unorgaized contacts list on my phone...
    How can I make it so I only have the contacts from my address book on my phone?
    Thanks in advance,
    Suzanne 

    Also, I just noticed that syncing my phone effected my calendar in that all my events now repeat.  So instead of having one event schedule on a day, I have two of the same events scheduled for the same time.
    It seems as if I can't sync my phone to my computer through iTunes and iCloud. 
    Help???

  • How can I sync my google/gmail contacts with my iphone 4s?

    Just got an iphone today. Never used one before. Always only had droids. Looked online for how to sync google contacts with iphone, but the instructions I found didn't work for me. They said to go to itunes and select my phone from 'the list.' I see no list. I clicked on everything I saw but couldn't find any way to sync with google contacts. Any suggestions is appreciated.
    P.S. All I need to do is bring my google contacts to the iphone. I don't have any iphone contacts yet so I don't need to combine them.

    I think they were repyling to Ducman's suggestion, not the Google article suggestion (BTW, that article from Google is no longer needed under iOS 7, just using the standard GMail account setup in iOS now syncs your contacts).
    Also, syncing contacts through iTunes is no longer possible if you're using Mavericks, in case the OP has a Mac.

  • How do I sync my calendar and Contacts with MS Outlook 2013?

    I'm switching to a Samsung S5 from an Iphone 4S.  I used the icloud to manage contacts and my calendar with its integration with Microsoft Outlook 2013.  For a variety of reasons, I want to stick with my desktop version of Outlook rather than going to Outlook 365, but I need to figure out how I can share the calendar and contacts.  Does Google or someone else have an app that integrates with Outlook?

  • How do i sync Outlook for Mac contacts with apples address book ???

    How do I sync outlook for Mac 2011 contacts with Address book.  I updated the itunes or apple updates and it erased my contacts from the address book.  I did have is set up where the they automaticaly updated back and forth but now I can not find how to check this.  Bottom line I want my contacts back to address book. ??????? anyone.

    Outlook for Mac doesn't support contact (or calendar) syncing with iCloud because Microsoft  chose not to include the CardDAV (and CalDAV) protocals that are required (see http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2648915).  You'll have to use the OS X Address Book (Contacts) app to sync with iCloud.

  • How can I check my MobileMe mail & contacts from another iPhone?

    How can I check in on my MobileMe email &amp; contacts from another iPhone or iPad, not my own? When I go to Me.com, the only option it offers is to set up the iPhone with my account -- which is NOT what I want. Is there a workaround or another path to login that doesn't force the "setup"' page on me?

    What a dumb decision. It would seem sensible that a mobile visitor to me.com should be able to proceed to the "regular" website and check mail, etc., through the web interface. Obviously -- well, okay, maybe not, but it puzzles me! You might be (as I tried, yesterday) vising the site through the browser on your wife's iPhone, which is already set up with an account there (and it would require cancelling her log-in and completely resetting her iPhone to proceed on the path Apple now requires!), or ya might be using a friend's iPad (my next attempt, a few minutes later!), or etc. etc. etc.  Ooops! Brick wall! No options.
    Seems like a counter-productive decision, one that's certain to be counter to common-sense needs and goals of Apple users; I can't be the first person to find this dead-end to be frustrating and contrary to expectations.  Okay, I have my rant finished, now.
    Apple, what was the problem that you were so determined to "fix" with this, ummm, feature? Howsabout a little tiny button hidden in greyscale that allows you to contine to the website, or a forcing URL that bypasses the mobile "set-up" interception? Help?
    Thanks, gdgmacguy -- full credit for the answer! Darn it!
    Oops, for some reason it credited ME with the correct answer. I'll try to contact Apple support to get it credited to you. This is apparently a screwup in my posting.

  • How can i sync my windows rformatted iPod with my new mac?

    i recently switched to mac and need to use my windows formatted iPod on it is this going to be a problem or do i have to buy a new ipod also

    Plug your iPod into your mac, it will say its Windows formatted, then click restore, make sure you've got all your stuff on your Mac, as restore will completely wipe it.
