Why don't the notes inside each contact sync from my Outlook on my laptop to my iphone

Why don't the notes I create inside an indiviual contact sync with my iphone?

I'm not certain why they are not syncing. It can be addressed in a couple of different ways. You could reset the sync history and see if that helps. There is a way to add a note to a contact in the iPhone by going to edit for a contact and then scroll to the bottom and select "add field" and select note. If you already have a note added, it should appear below the contact's information and above the buttons for text message, Facetime, etc.

Good idea. Now you can go about your day and do other things, and hopefully Apple will provide an option for full screen caller ID.

IPhone 3gs,IOS4.3.5 and contacts added not from contacts (maybe from gmail)

I hope someone can help with this. I had a contact added to my iPhone 3GS (4.3.5) that I did not add. This contact was from a person that I deleted from any of my contacts from over a year ago. This is causing extreme grief to me and my significant other. I don't know where it came from and I am guessing that the recent IOS upgrade and Gmail decided to add this contact from old emails. Can anyone help out with an explanation of where this came from? Thanks in advanced.

Depending on where you are located at, some governments have required Apple to disable the Facetime ability in their countries.

Why Are Surnames Continually Added Back to Contact Entries After I Delete the Surname?

I have quite a few contacts with just their first name.
The Contacts app on my MacBook Pro continually adds last names -- if I had it in there at one time and since removed it -- back to the contact. Then this syncs over to my iPhone and iPads.
Why does Contacts do this and how can I stop it permanently?

Hello HellBlazerRaiser,
If contacts are reverting back, the next place I would try to fix is at iCloud.com, from there you can edit from the source of the contacts. I have also provided and article that will assist with troubleshooting contacts across multiple devices.

Why don't the pictures for my contacts show up in mail?

So I was tweaking my mail settings a bit and noticed I could set the application (using my iMac mail here), to display the pictures of senders. It does this for a few of the emails but only a few. I have gone into my contacts (address book) and verified that a particular sender does indeed have a picture associated with them in the address book. But for some reason it will NOT display said picture next to their email in the preview payne. I would like to see the pictures as it would help me to more easlily notice when a particular email comes in.
Again it works for a very few emails. I have alos verified that the email adress for the sender is tied to their card in the address book. Another possibly important fact, most of the pictures are being pulled from peoples facebook pics as I have address book set to sync those two. I dont believe that is the cause of the problem as one of the few that actually IS showing a picture has a picture from the senders FB profile pic.
Any ideas?

Connect your iPhone to you computer with the iPhone's USB connector. If iTunes doesn't sutomatically launch, open iTunes.
In the left hand column of the iTunes window, under Devices, your iphone should be listed. Click on it, and a Summary Window on about your iPhone will appear.
Just below the Apple at the top center of the iTunes window you'll see "Summary, Info, Apps, Tones, Music, Movies, TV Shows, Photos". Click on Info. You'll see options to check like Sync Contacts, Calendars, Mail, Other, and Advanced. Check the options you want to sync. Do the same for Tones, Music, Movies, TV Shows, and Photos.
Then Click on the Summary button. Under the Backup heading, make sure Backup to iCloud is checked. Then you might have to click the Sync button in the bottom right corner of the iTunes Window (not sure about this last one).
Good luck.

Why don't' some recurring events in iCal synch via iCloud with my iPad2

This may be a question better asked on the iCloud community, but I already have something similar there.
Not all of my recurring events sych via the iCloud with my Mac and IOS devices. For example, my anniversary appears on my Mac and my iPhone, but not on my iPad2.
I notice that when I click on "Calendars" when the iCal app is open in my iPhone I get 2 lists of calendars - one that is labled "On my iphone" and the other that is labled "iCloud". The same two lists appear in the iCal app on my Mac. But on my iPad2 the only list that appears is "iCloud".
Can anyone help with this issue?

Here's somthing Apple suggested to me for some problems I was having that was related to the basic features of the iPhone. Connect the iPhone to your Mac, launch iTunes and.....
1 - backup your iPhone to your computer
2 - restore the iPhone to factory settings.
3 - restore the backup.

Merging iPhone contacts with Mac Contacts

I typically create and modify contacts on my iPhone (iOS 6.1.3). However, I have some of the same or similar contacts in my Mac Contacts application (Yosemite). How can I merge the contacts from my iPhone onto my Mac, so the incomplete address cards on the laptop will have the info from the iPhone. The support material all seems to say that if I try syncing them, my iPhone's contacts will be replaced by the Mac contacts... I sync everything manually, and have always had contact syncing turned off.
I'm afraid to try syncing, and maybe lose the additional information I've added to people's cards on my iPhone.

I can't be 100% sure on that. However, what I do know is that it will be a backup of your most recent info. Therefore, any new apps, new contacts, emails, etc. since your last backup would get added. So if you have to restore and you select the backup date, you should get everything from that backup. I've relied on iPhone backups many times in the past and they've all worked just great. Will simply require some time if you have a lot of apps and info that need to be restored.

Contact card format incompatibility between Outlook for Mac and Mac contacts

Seems that Mac Office 2011 Outlook contacts no longer directly sync with iPhone, I use a manual process of dragging the vcf file from my Outlook contacts list to a desktop folder and then dragging the contact from that folder to my Mac Contacts file. Even though Mac contacts file accepts the file, sometimes information is missing and the contact data won't go to the icloud and thence post to my iPhone. It's as if the .vcf format from Outlook isn't a match for the .vcf file format that Mac Contacts expects. Many times I have to manually copy the contact data from the outlook contact into a new contact file in Mac Contacts to get that contact to sync across iCloud to my iPhone. Can anyone tell me what the problem might be?

Hello,
Open both in Text Wrangler, 2nd line should show version, are they the same?
What are the differences beyond there?
Do some Outlook entries have some separators in the entry, like : or ; that may be throwing off the fields?

Hotmail contacts to mac contact

HI,
I am having problems 1st getting hotmail to work properly on the new Macbook Pro and IPAD, and I can't sync the hotmail contacts to the Mac contacts. Any suggestions?

You can't, Microsoft only provide sync services if you use a mobile device (iPhone/iPad), or Outlook 2013.
Check Google, there are some 3rd party connectors that claim to work.

Copy contacts to mac contacts

Just bought a MacBook Pro. Does anyone know how to copy my iPhone contacts onto my Mac contacts list?

Hi
Firstly I would backup your iphone before you do anything suggested.
Suggestions are below
1) When selecting in Itunes the sync contacts, you should be prompted to merge address books and therefore nothing should be deleted on your iphone but instead the iPhone and Mac address books should be merged
2) If you are sync from Iphone to iCloud you could download the contacts to VCF files from iCloud and then follow the instructions below to add to the Mac Address Book

Hope this helps
remember, please backup before doing anything suggested above
Thanks

HT4436 Why don't all my contacts and calendar events on my iMac (version 10.7.4) stream onto iCloud? For instance, there are 470 entries in my address book but only 270 on iCloud. And not all my appointments in iCal are transferred.

Why don't all my contacts and calendar events on my iMac (version 10.7.4) stream onto iCloud? For instance, there are 470 entries in my address book but only 270 on iCloud. And not all my appointments in iCal are transferred either.
I have the same problem transfering Address book on iMac to contacts on iPhone (old version 3G - on iCloud). this is a hard wired connection

Might you have 200 entries in On My Mac groups and some of your appointments in On My Mac calendars?
