When syncing some contacts are deleted

Since I upgraded to Lion and installed iCloud, when I sync my iPhone (that's a 3GS running software 4.0) weird things happen and the last time I synced it several contacts were deleted.
I think that the problem is with iCloud, since I could not install iCloud in my iPhone.
I would like to uninstall iCloud from my Mac. How can I do that?

Today I found the problem. I had to turn off iCloud in AddressBook preferences. It solved my problem.

Duplicate entries after syncing. My phone went from about 125 contacts to 1,965. Some contacts are duplicated 30 times! Tried deleting the contacts and resyncing- same thing. I don't use Mobile me.

Please HELP!!!

You can share the same Apple ID for purchasng form the iTunes and app stores without any problems, but you should all used separate iCloud accounts with separate Apple IDs. (You are not required to use the same ID for iCloud and other services as you do for the iTunes store.) This will prevent you from ending up with merged data. You should also use separate Apple IDs for iMessage and FaceTime or you will end up getting each other's text messages and FaceTime calls.

I would love to do this as well. All I need is my calendar appts from outlook. Right now I am using google calendar sync, but I would like to move to the cloud and away from google. I find it hard to believe there isn't an option to do this.

HT4759 if contacts are deleted?, can they be restored?

If contacts are deleted on iphone 4s during an update ... can they be restored? and if so where are the stored now?

If they are no longer on icloud.com you may be able to restore them from your iCloud backup by following this: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4841.

Does iPhoto not have safeguards against accidentally deleting an entire photo book, which is very easily done (when you think you are deleting just a photo)? No "are you sure you want to delete?". No way of copying your book before, or restoring it after?

Does iPhoto not have safeguards against accidentally deleting an entire photo book, which is very easily done with a single press of delete (and which can be done when you think you are deleting just a photo)? No "are you sure you want to delete?" before it happens? No way of copying your book while you are working on it (to make multiple versions of it, or just to have a safeguard copy), and no real way of restoring it after (since, remarkably, the photo books don't appear as items - items which could very easily be recovered otherwise)?

I get a dialog box when I try to delete a book.
And if you right click on the book in the left column you can duplicate it so you can have multiple versions.

VIP email when some contacts are not in bold

When I try to set up VIP List in my email mailboxes, most of the contacts are not available. The bold print are available for VIP not the rest. Any ideas what is wrong?

You can change the location of where your media is stored on your computer's iTunes via the Advanced tab in Edit > Preferences, but I'm not sure whether that applies to apps as music. You can't change the location of where the device's backup is stored (which includes your apps content and settings, but not the actual apps themselves or your iPad's music/films/synced photos etc), that will be stored on your main drive.
In terms of the apps that appear on your iPad, have you used any age ratings in Settings > General > Restrictions that might have hidden some until you then removed the restriction ?
On your computer's iTunes, if you select Apps part of your iTunes Library how many apps is shown as being in there (the total should be shown on the bar at the bottom of the screen) ? And how many on the iPad in Settings > General > About > Applications ?

Contacts closing when viewing some contacts

When I try to view certain contacts on my 3G, the contacts app closes by itself. I can view some contacts with no problem but with others, the screen goes black and then returns to the home screen. I have a feeling it has something to do with the notes attached to the contacts, but I can't find any pattern. Any suggestions?

Thank you for the advice; I found the problem though. The notes were too long in my outlook contacts list that I am syncing with. I am actually having my Act db sync with Outlook which syncs with the iPhone. I ended up deleting all the contacts out of Outlook and off the iPhone. Then I told Act to only sync two of the last customer histories –rather than the 10 that I was syncing. Then I synchronized the contacts with outlook again and then reloaded them onto the iPhone. Now I can open and view many of the contacts that would previously cause the contacts application to close (I haven’t tried them all as there are over 1,000 contacts).

Contacts - Some contacts are incomplete in android apps

Hi,
unfortunately I have to complain about the next contacts issue. Some of my contacts have no more information except the name when I view them inside of an android app. But in the BackBerry contacts app all the details show up.
What is the matter on that behaviour? Is it possible to force a re-sync from the BlackBerry contacts to the contacts that are provided to android apps? A reboot seems not to be the solution. The contacts are synchronized with my google account
Thanks,
Sven

I don't have a device running BB10 to give a correct answer for you, but this is my suggest:
1. Check all your synced contact on your google account, they have all details as your Blackberry contacts or not.
2. If the answer is "yes", maybe you send feedback about the compatibility between your phone (Passport, right?) and Android app which you used.
3. If the answer is "no", there are many ways to fix it.
But the easiest way is restore all your contact to an Android device, then you sync.
I think Google supports for Android phone so much better than Blackberry.
Have a nice day

Some contacts are missing, but I can find them with the search facility

Hello,
I don't know when and how it happened (maybe when I updated to 4.0), but suddenly 75% or more of my contacts disappeared from the iPhone. There is an old back-up copy in iTunes, but it is completely outdated.
The funny thing is that if I do a serach for themissing contacts in teh Search facility of the iPhone, I find them.
Note: Since I upgraded to 4.0, all my contacts are grouped in something called "All" (that did not exist before).
Just for the record, I'm using an iPhone 3GS.
Is there any way to bring back the missing contacts (which are there, somewhere, in the iPhone, because I can find them when I do a search) into the list of contacts?
Thanks a lot,
Daniel

Couldn't it be that the iPhone has created a group called "All Contacts" that only contains "some" of the contacts? In that case, where would the other contacts be? If I create a new group, it will be empty. So I don't see how would moving contacts from teh "ALl Contacts" group to the new empty group could help.
Another problem is that at first I had only the contacts I had imported from a previous cell phone. Later on, when I thought I was making a backup of these contacts with iTunes, it imported all the info from my Outlook Contacts, 95% of which I did not want in my iPhone. But anyways, that happened long before this problem (not being able to access to all the contacts from the iPhone's Phone application and having to look for them with the iPhone's search facility).
