TS2776 Any ideas why my Outlook 2010 is syncing with iCloud for e-mail but not for contacts and calendars?  I am not a novice user and have done all the obvious things. The situation is odd because the original calendars all came from Outlook in the first

I use iMac, iPad and iPhone but also an HP laptop. I have used Macs since 1986 so I am not a novice. I set up my iCloud account, moving from MobileMe recently and everything works fine on my Apple devices. The bizarre thing is I can see all my e-mail accounts via iCloud in Outlook but the contacts and calendars are not syncing in Outlook even though the original calendar material came from Outlook (the contacts data is all from the iMac). I've tried all the obvious things and read most of the articles on the Apple Support website. All the relevant boxes are checked on the iCloud dashboard on each device but I just wondered if I was missing something obvious. I'm sure some of you will have had the same expereince and solved it. Can you help me?
Thanks in anticipation!

  • TS3999 My Outlook Calender wont sync with iCloud/iPad/iPhone?

    My Outlook Calender wont sync with iCloud/iPad/iPhone? despite doing everything as per the support page. I keep on clicking the Add in but it wont "take"?
    It use to,  but no matter what I try nothing works. Using Windows 7. HELP!

    This step is not clear:
    "Open a secure website to see if you can access ports 80 and 443. Outlook requires access to port 443 to push and fetch updates to and from the iCloud Contacts servers."
    The link takes me to an Apple page but which has nothing to do with ports.  And there is nothing to explain what it is I am looking for, how to look for it, and how to change it if needed.
    Also, this step:
    "Open the iCloud Control Panel and make sure that you're signed in to the same iCloud account that you're using on your other supported devices."
    iCloud automatically set up a "[email protected]...." account for me so I see that one plus my original email used to open my Apple account.  And the apple products show my settings under both identities.
    Make sure the iCloud Outlook Add-in is active within Outlook
    This add-in is disabled because it doesn't allow Outlook to function properly.
    Thanks!

  • Photos are being added to my iPad, without choosing any events in iPhoto or having them sync with iCloud

    Photos are being added to my iPad, without choosing any events in iPhoto or having them sync with iCloud
    I just upgraded to IOS6, and now my ipad is full of pictures I did not choose to sync.
    I cannot delete them without deleting them from all sources.
    Actually, the message is when I go to hit EDIT, select a picture, and then choose DELETE: "This photo is used in an album. Do you want to delete it everywhere? Delete Everywhere"
    Does that mean "Everywhere" on my iPad, or everywhere including whatever place on my computer it found the photos to begin with?
    PLEASE HELP
    Ps:
    I've already done this:
    To delete photos from your device
    In iTunes, select the device icon in the Devices list on the left. Click the Photos tab in the resulting window.
    Choose "Sync photos from."
    On a Mac, choose iPhoto or Aperture from the pop-up menu.
    On a Windows PC, choose Photoshop Album or Photoshop Elements from the pop-up menu.
    Choose "Selected albums" and deselect the albums or collections you want to delete.
    Click Apply.

    You can still sync the photos and keep the photos that are already on the device. You have to include all of the albums or events in the pictures folder that you sync from. If you are using iPhoto, select that in the Sync Photos from drop down menu and then select all of the albums or events that you want to sync. Make sure to check Selected Albums, events, faces and automatically include (no events). Using that option will allow you to choose exactly which albums and events to sync.
    You have to remember that all photos must be included in every sync so you cannot sync photos from iPhoto today and then try to sync photos from another folder tomorrow, or you will erase all of the photos that were synced from iPhoto. You need to maintain one main Photos syncing folder for the photos that you want to transfer to the iPad. You can have subfolders within that one main folder and you can selectively sync those subfolders. You just have to place all of the photos that you want to sync into one main iPad syncing photos folder.
    There are WiFi transfer apps that allow you to transfer photos to the iPad without having to sync with iTunes. I use this one. This app (and others like it) will allow you to use multiple computers to transfer photos.
    Wireless Transfer App Easily send photos to iPhone/iPad ...

  • Outlook 2010 SP1 Sync with the iCloud

    Problem: Contacts do not sync.  Calendar Items sync.  They do not appear in iCloud.com or on my Iphone.
    It appears items sync from the Iphone to the iCloud and to Outlook.  The problem is items syncing from Outlook to the iCloud.
    I rebooted the PC thinking it migh jump start the sync from Outlook to the iCloud. 
    I also tried unchecking Contacts in iCloud PC Control Panel, applied the change and then reverted the change hoping that woud jump start the sync from Outlook.
    There are no errors.
    iCloud Control Panel is installed
    Windows 7 64 bit version SP1
    Outlook 2010 Sp1is install (32 bit Version)
    Outlook Itunes Addin is running
    Outlook iCloud  Addin is running
    Outlook PST Maintenance
    PST was compacted
    Ran ScanPST with fix option to eliminate any PST issues
    Itunes Configuration Information
    Itunes is not configured to sync Contacts or Calendar
    iCloud Windows Control Panel
    Is set to sync Contacts and Calendar
    Iphone 4 is set to sync with iCloud.
    Any ideas would be appreciated

    frandango,
    I had the 3 calendar issue but through trial and error figured it out.  I would not want to say which of the three is syncing to iCloud but I can offer this.
    It has to be in the iCloud Folder.
    I would add an event, wait for a sync and look on your iphone etc to see if its there.  Then you'd know which calendar is yours.
    Also it is possible you have 2 calendars in iCloud.  This function is supported.  If one looks in the upper corner of their calendar on their device (ipad etc) there is a button to choose which calendars are displayed.  So you could be overlaying calendars on your device.
    In my case I don't need more than one calendar so I found which one was the one that had my events and deleted the other/s.  I then renamed it a simple name "Calendar - iCloud"
    I did the same for contacts, and tasks ("to do" list is now useless).
    I left my notes in the default file, and checked sync through itunes.
    I did this becaue the type of notes that iCloud creates are subpar in my opinion.
    The default calendar is now not used by me.  However this creates a lot of functionality issues with outlook.  As the icloud data file is not the default the navigation bar buttons, defaults are still the original data file and useless.  I did try and change my iCloud file to the default but it crashed the program and was a nightmare to return to a working condition.

  • How do I restore contacts to outlook after a sync with icloud?

    I did the same exact thing, for the same reason as below, and have the same problem now.
    rstone32566     Sep 16, 2014 2:22 PM 
      Re: Can contacts moved fr Outlook Contacts be restored  in response to rstone32566      
    Hi Norm123
    I had set-up iCloud Control Panel on the new computer.  I did get the contacts from iCloud back in my new computer, but they are in a new Contact folder that is apparently separate from the original Contacts Folder.  Now on my new PC, when I open Outlook and go to Contacts, Outlook shows two separate folders under My Contacts, both of which are labeled "Contacts".  One apparently came from iCloud, but the other is empty and appears to be the original Outlook Contacts folder.  I say this because the empty Contacts folder cannot be deleted, i.e., right clicking on it doesn't provide any option to delete it.  The other Contacts folder, which appears to mirror the one in iCloud, does offer this option to delete.
    Then in Outlook on my new PC under the All Contacts column I also have a folder selection named "Contacts in iCloud", as well as a selection of a group of sub-contacts that I had originally set-up on my iPhone.  This subset of Contacts is maintained on my iPhone and was also intentionally shared with iCloud.
    What I really had hoped to do initially was to maintain my PC's original Contacts on my PC, but to share the file with iCloud so if I was away from home I could look up a primary contact on my iPhone by opting to view them via iCloud. 
    The other problem I have now is that when selecting Contacts on my iPhone, my only choices are to view the contacts that I originally set-up on my iPhone, or to view a selection called All Contacts, which displays not only the contacts that originally came from my PC, but merges them in with the contacts set up on my phone.  Of course this gives me a list of contacts that includes double entries for every contact that was set up on my iPhone and who is also in my PC's Contacts folder..  In other words, on my iPhone I can select the group set up on my phone by itself, which is great, but if I check the "All Contacts" group on my iPhone it will not allow me to unselect the group set up on my iPhone.
    I wish your original suggestion to export vcards from the iCloud worked as the link you gave me described.  I can seem to re-populate the original Contacts folder on my new PC by importing the vcards, but I can only get this to work one contact at a time.  Selecting multiple contacts doesn't seem to work.
    Thank you very much for all your help.  I hope the feedback in this message makes sense.  If you find out how to get the multiple selection export to work as advertised, please let me know
    Best regards,
    Bob (rstone32566)

    If you downloaded iWorks apps under the ID you are using on your iPad, regardless of whether you erased it or not, the apps are still tied to that ID. 
    Have you signed in to the App Store on your iPad?
    Settings > iTunes and App Store
    Tap your Apple ID and if you have not signed in, sign in using the same Apple ID and Password.
    The same should be done with iCloud.

  • Can't get Notes from Outlook 2007 to sync with iCloud

    I have Outlook 2007 running on Windows 7 pc.  I have just upgraded to os5 on ipad 2 and iphone 4s.  Can't get Notes to sync between Outlook 2007 and the ipad or iphone.  Notes does sync between the ipad and iphone though.  I have set @me.com account as the default email account in outlook and icloud control panel worked with outlook and setup.  Calendar syncs between all three as it should.  Just can't get Notes to sync between icloud and outlook.  Does anyone know of a way to get this to work?

    I fell your pain and no thereis no good solution to this nasty issue. However you can view your Outlooknotes on your iOS devices but I had to do a sync via PC iTunes and sync cable to each device (iPhone 4 and iPad 2) not a very good solution (no support for OTA iCloud sync, LAME!). Then when the Outlook notes arrive on my iOS device in the Notes app its under a separatefolder "From My PC". All notes generated on your iOS devices are in the folder [email protected] or iCloud folder.  Further more if you go to your iCloud webpage you will only see the notes you generated from your iOS devices (if youhave Notes sync turned on) and you can't edit them nor can you create new notes from the iCloud webpage interface! Extremely sad and downright terrible migration from Mobile Me.  These are simple text notes this should not be so difficult but Apple chose to treat them the same as email messages basically and made a flashy "Notes App" just like the new iOS 5 "RemindersApp" same thing.
    If you’re like me and your looking to go away from your Outlook Notes and just want to put all notes into the Apple Notes then you need to use one of your iOS devices and manually cut and past the notes one at a time from your "From My PC" folder then create a new one on in your iCloud folder. This is also so darn ********! You should be able to select all do a copy then go to the iCloud folder and past,done (but you can't)! With hundreds of Notes collected over the years you’re not likely going to manually open each one select all, copy close and create a new note in the iCloud folder....  and by the way I'm not looking to load Evernot at this time so stop suggesting exporting my Outlook notes to Evertnote, this is not a solution to this issue.
    Apple are you listening!?

  • My iMac desktop is not syncing with iCloud.  Any suggestions?

    All of a sudden, my iMac Desktop stopped syncing with iCloud.  My mail, notes, etc.  Have logged off, deleted the account and tried to start over, but to no avail.  Any suggestions would be appreciated.  BTW, it syncs with my iPhone and iPad, just NOT with my Mac Desktop.

    Hello, John!
    I see that you are not having and issue with the syncing between your computer and iCloud.  So we would need to look into the device settings to make sure all settings mirror what is set in the iCloud Control Panel.  I have included a couple articles that will assist you in troubleshooting your iPhone 5.  See the sections in the articles below referring to your iOS devices.
