Why are there more contacts on my iOS device now that I turned on iCloud?

I use outlook and know how many contacts I have; I turned on iCloud for contacts and the number of contacts increased by over 300; how do I reconcile? I have over 6k contacts in outlook so not manually?

I have the same issue. there are more photos on my phone than on my computer. my old computer crashed so my new one has no photos at all. i havent synced it yet cause i dont want to lose all my photos. whats weird is that when i plug my phone into my mac, it only shows the pics from the camera roll on the phone. it doesnt show any albums or any of the photos from the "photos' option on the iphone.
im running a 2007 macbook with snow leopard 10.6.8, and an iphone 4s.
here, this is my camera roll, 340 photos. plus all the albums I've created. non of those albums show up to import to iphoto when i plug in the iphone.
and this is from the "photos'' option on the phone
its got photos going back to 2009. way more than the 340 it says i have. but non of those photos show up in iphoto, my computer has ZERO photos on it, and the last computer that did, died and is in the trash. so where are these photos being stored? it doesnt make since to me. and why dont they show up in iphoto for import?

    Why are there more photos on my Photo Stream on my ipad than on my iphone?
    Also, how can I push photos from photo stream to my ipnone?

    Probably because you enabled photo stream on your iPad before you did on your phone.  Photos are only maintained in photo stream for 30 days, although photos outside of this limit will remain on your device.  If you enabled photo stream on your phone later, some of the photos were probably no longer in photo stream to sync to your phone.
    To get them on your phone, import them to your computer and sync them to your phone, or use an app like PhotoSync to wirelessly transfer them to your phone.

  • Last month my data cycle was from the 12th to the 12th. Now for the end of this month its til the 20th. Why are there more days between when my data cycle refreshes from last month?

    I guess I said everything in the topic...anyways, from March 12 to April 12 was the data cycle. After April 12 it shot up to May 20th! That's a whole extra week of data that is definitely going to be over because there are more days use data? Why?

    We share 4gb for our plan. It works out perfectly usually. But this month says the new data cycle doesn't start til the 20th. We've already gone over a gig easily in this extra week. My billing cycle is always set at the 15th of every month and that has not been a problem...until we go over in data and get charged more money. Is the data cycle going to fluctuate every month?
    Your billing cycle and your "data cycle" are the same, and that cycle doesn't change, unless you request it or maybe if you bundle services or something.  For example, my bill cycle runs from the 18th of one month through the 17th of the next.  My due date sometimes varies a few days, not really sure why, probably because not all months have the same number of days. If you look at the breakdown by line on your bill, you will see these dates.  What you are describing sounds like the due date is different than usual. All lines on the same account have the same billing cycle for all services...calling/texting plan, data plan, insurance, etc.
    I am a little confused, though, because you stated your "data cycle" is always the 12th through the 12th (it would actually be the 13th through the 12th), then you say the bill cycle is always set for the 15th, and then you say the data cycle is pushed to the 20th this month.  What is the billing cycle for the voice/text plan? What date did the bill print (this should be on the first page)? Finally, what is the due date on the most recent bill?  Bill cycle and due dates are not the same.

  • Why are there duplicate contacts in my contact list?

    I just edited some names in my contact list like I added a couple phone numbers and emails but after I was done those names I edited duplicated?  Why is this?

    Similar problem here... I have the iCloud file in my Outlook, but it is now empty... Contacts still on my iPod and iPad, but nothing on my PC :S

  • HT204150 Why are there contacts on my iPhone that are not on my Mac (syncing through iCloud)

    Why are there some contacts on my iPhone (and my older Mac) that aren't getting synced onto my new MacBook?

    First check that all your settings are correct, that contact syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
    Make sure the contacts you are adding are added to your 'iCloud' group and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud group (you can do this by checking in groups), non iCloud contacts will not sync.
    If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your contacts are in the iCloud group, you might try unchecking contact syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling contact syncing.

  • Why are there so many more choices on the USA iTunes Store? Surely having an iTunes account should let you access all itunes availability the world over? Also how do you request films/tv series to the UK itunes?

    Why are there so many more choices on the USA iTunes Store? Surely having an iTunes account should let you access all itunes availability the world over?
    Also how do you request films/tv series to the UK itunes? There's tv series I'd like but they're incomplete like The Batman & Xena Warrior Princess. And films theta aren't available for download but you can purchase in a store like HMV?  Apple isn't doing itself any favours by secluding countries by their store. They'd make billions if you could just select the iTunes Store you want to search & purchase from just by signing in! If anything what they're doing is putting themselves into a corner, other companies like Samsung & HTC are already on too of them for innovation & ease of use. The people they're attracting are predominantly existing Apple users not new customers. What do you guys think?

    It's not Apple's choice, they can only sell a particular item where the content provider/rights-holder has granted them a license to sell them. Content is licensed by the rights-holders to Apple on a country-by-country basis, each country therefore has to have its own store, and you have to be in a country to use its store - they want control over where their content is available.
    You can try requesting that an item be added to the UK store via this page, but unless the rights-holder agrees to then Apple won't be able to sell it here : http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunes.html

  • Why are there no more cancion de la semana

    Why are there no more Spanish/Latin free singles of the week (cancion de la semana)? I really enjoyed being exposed to those but they stopped and there's no explanation...

    I agree. I used to rent TV shows all the time. I'd much rather own a movie than own a tv show. If Apple is going to compete with cable companies, they need to provide either rentals or rental one-time (at your convenience) passes. Or maybe some sort of network pass for all shows on a particular network. I only have basic cable, and I don't have a DVR. Why would I want to own all of the shows I'm just trying to watch as I would on regular cable.
    Seriously, Apple, I want to give you my money for a really good service, but you're making if very hard on me. $2.99 for watching a show one time is absurd. Especially when the show will most likely end up on Netflix within a year.
    Madness...

  • Why are there no iPhone 6 battery cases with a lightning input port for charging instead of a micro USB?

    Why are there no iPhone 6 battery cases with a lightning input port for charging instead of a micro USB?
    Does it have something to do with the MFI certification? Is micro USB just cheaper?
    I don't want to have to carry around another cable and it seems like this would be a good product. What am I missing?

    sanjaykd wrote:
    Valid point.
    So can I ask why there are no MFI certified lightning female ports on battery cases? Or more so, does this certification even exist?
    And why not?
    This is a user-to-user technical support forum. There is no one here from Apple to answer "why". Again, I would recommend contacting the manufacturers or use the Contact Us link at the bottom right of every page for information on how to contact Apple directly.
    I suspect that manufacturers may view the more standard microUSB charging port as a selling point. Those types of cables are cheaper and ubiquitous.

  • Why are there so many flash updates?

    Why are there so many Flash updates… I have had two in the last week and at least one more since the start of the year. It seems to have really got silly this last 12 months, is Flash really that unsecure and unstable that it needs this many fixes and updates?
    I know you can tick the install in background box when updating but I like to know what is going onto my computer and given Adobe's knack of crashing my system when using PS and AI I don't really want them silently installing anything.

    99% of the time the update gets prompted by Youtube or BBC when videos won't play on there sites and I follow the links through them. You would like to think that big sites like these would not allow false links to malware to crop up, but it isn't out of the question. Next stop, up to date anti virus…..
    As far as Youtube goes I thought they had adopted HTML 5 now as standard and didn't rely on Flash?

  • If i am the only user and owner of my macbook, then why are there 78 users in the directory editor?

    Hi guys just wanted to know little bit about the open directory as my MacBook Pro has been playing up on and off at least a couple of years.  I have been advised by Apple over the phone or as well as over the genius bar in trying to get my mac to behave.  This normally solves whatever problem that has been happening at the time. "Great, job done!"...  Not so much, as another problem eventually shows it's ugly pixelated face again and then we end up going round the Infinite loop ride one more time...  And this ride ain't always free!  I have forked out about £600 on it so far and it wasn't cheap in the beginning!  Anyway I have just got off the ride and before I get punched by a plyst to get back on I would rather learn about the things I don't understand so hopefully I can resolve the matter without hair loss.  So my main question so far is why are there 78 user names (most of which are computer related names, not all) are found in Directory Utility?  I do not play games on my Mac it is mainly used for media such as iPhoto, iTunes, pages, mail and surfing the net.  So which out these 78 users do I select as a server?
    If you have any suggestions or pointers then please post a reply.
    Thanks for reading

    So which out these 78 users do I select as a server?
    None. It's normal. Make no modifications.
    It's not clear what trouble you are experiencing, or if anything is wrong at all. If your Mac is not behaving as you expect it should, describe what's wrong in as much detail as possible.
    Include all relevant details regarding your MacBook Pro starting with which one of its three dozen models you have. Posting the results of EtreCheck will help with that. Read about it here.

  • Why are there 3 library folders on my MB Pro?

    Why are there 3 library folders on my MB Pro? (1) in the HD folder; (2) in the system folder; (3) in the user folder?

    Your home/Library folder contains support and preference files for you. It includes all your mail, if you use Apple Mail, as well as things like contacts, calendars, Safari bookmarks and caches, and so on. It also includes any fonts which you have installed for your user. 20GB seems a little high, but if you have a lot of mail/attachments, this could explain it.
    The /Library folder contains support files (usually third-party) for all users. Adobe tends to put files in here, for example. It also includes iLife template/loop files, so you'll find GarageBand loops here, for example. Fonts which can be accessed by all users can be found here.
    The /System/Library folder belongs to OS X, and contains support files for the system.
    Don't delete any files from any of the folders unless you know what you're doing...

  • Why are there limited view movies on iTunes Store

    Why are there limited view movies on iTunes Store?
    Hi, I want to rent a movie from my iTunes Store on my Apple TV
    The movie called "friends with benefits"
    And more movies and it's write to me on the top in the right size "limited"
    Why??
    My age is 23 and all the deitals are true and ok
    What I need to do???

    Right now, you can only get movies and tv shows if you are in the U.S. or you have a bank account and address in the U.S. Or if you get a gift certificate that is from the U.S. you can access it that way. But if you use an out of the country bank, address or buy a non us gift certificate you are out of luck. What I mean by U.S. gift certificate is one that is purchased in the U.S. or over the net with a U.S. credit card drawn on a U.S. bank. Hope this helps, and sorry. I am an American as well and live in Mexico, and took me awhile to figure it out.
