Wont sync "All Default" contacts to icloud?

I am trying to get my iPhone contacts to connect with my Messenger app on my MacBook Pro.
My iCloud contacts are synced correctly, but when I add a new contact to my phone, they do not appear on my computer.
I looked into my phone and realized that the contacts synced to "All Default" are not syncing. I suppose this is because they are not in "All iCloud"Is
Is there a way to do this/ make this happen?
Thanks,

Right, that's what I want to do. How?
How do I select which groups of contacts I wish to keep off iCloud?
I know that if I go to iCloud contacts, and click the gear I can delete contacts and groups, but how does that work if I sync up again and if I want to only keep certain groups synced? Do I have to manually manage every time a sync is made to remove certain groups?

HOW CAN I SYNC ALL MY CONTACTS FROM MY IPHONE TO ICLOUD?

Go to Settings>iCloud, sign in with your Apple ID to create your account if you haven't already done so, turn Contacts on and choose Merge with iCloud when prompted. If you are syncing contacts from an external account (Gmail, Yahoo, exchange, etc.) you will need to take additional steps to add them. Let me know if that's the case.

HT5824 How can I delete all my contacts from icloud with a single command?

I would like to delete all my contacts from iCloud so when I synchronize with my other devices, the one I already have don't be duplicated or deleted

If you delete all your iCloud contacts, then enable contact syncing with your other devices, the empty iCloud contacts are likely to overwrite the contacts on your other devices and you will lose them.
Do you have a master list of contacts on one of your devices that you are trying to replace the iCloud contacts with?

I am not able to upload all the contacts into icloud and get into my new iphone 6

Hi I am trying to sync all the contacts in my old iphone 4 to iclud.
and so not able to sync only my contacts i think i got all my photos synced.
can any help me in that.

Hi Kinnera2740,
On the old phone go into Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars. Are there any email accounts listed here? Such as Google, Yahoo, Hotmail, etc?
If so, tap on each of them and check the 'Contacts' option. If it is turned on, this means that contact syncing is enabled for that account and that your contacts may already be synced to that mail account.
Also check Settings > iCloud and look for the 'Contacts' option. Is it enabled? If so, then it is possible that some contacts could be synced to your iCloud account as well. You can check to see which contacts are in which account by going to the Contacts app on your old phone and pressing the 'Groups' button in the top left corner. You may see several groups here. Uncheck all groups and then check each group one at a time to check and see how many contacts are synced to each account. You may need to add the same mail accounts to your new phone and enable contact syncing to have the contacts from the mail servers sync down to the new phone.

My sister sync all my contact to her phone and then delete all my contact how can i restore them to my mobile., my sister sync all my contact to her phone and then delete all my contact how can i restore them to my mobile.

My sister sync all my contact to her phone with my apple id and then delete all of them how can i restore all my contact?

It sounds like she deleted them all from your icloud account. If you have an iTunes backup, try this to possible recover your deleted contacts. http://support.apple.com/kb/ts4108
If that doesn't work, you might be stuck as Apple doesn't usually have a backup plan for intentional user deletion. You can try to call Apple though and see if there is anything else they can do to try and recover that deleted info for you.
Good luck and let me know if there are any other questions I can help you with.

Hello there inkystephens,
It sounds like you are needing to sync your iCloud contacts that came from Outlook in the first place back to Outlook. The Outlook section of the following article should help you do that:

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

There is an option, under Advanced, on the Info Pane in iTunes to replace all contacts on your phone with what's on your computer for the next sync only. So, edit everything on your computer & use that method.

How to I sync my iphone contacts to icloud without losing contacts?

how to I sync my iphone contacts to icloud without losing contacts? I am afraid to turn "on" the button to sync to the cloud because I am not sure if the contacts from my phone merge to the icloud or is it that the icloud information merges to my phone? My phone has the most current data and at one point I did have the contact syncing to the cloud, but then turned it off. Now, I want to turn it back on.
How do I know I won't lose the data on my phone only to be replaced with old data from the cloud?

it does not seem to work for me. I have backed up my iphone 5s with a back up from my previous 4. the back-up process works fine, I can see all my contacts in the phone but then I activate icloud (on which there are no contacts) and all my contacts disappear instantly... I tried 5 times now and everytime the same result. I'm considering to stop using the cloud all together.
I've tried to manually back-up to icloud immediatly after restoring back-up on the phone, it didn't work.
please help !

When I delete all my contact from iCloud, How I can restore them?

when I delete all my contact from iCloud, How I can restore them?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
To restore from a back up made through iTunes, follow these instructions.
To restore from a back up made through iCloud, try the following:
The difficulty in restoring iCloud data from a back up is that the back up is older than the current version on iCloud and anything that is restored gets removed again when an iCloud sync occurs.
Ensure the device is connected to your local network.
Start the restore from iCloud back up.
Allow the devices settings to restore (watch for the confirmation of completion).
As the apps begin to restore pull the connection to your router WAN port (the one that goes to the telephone point).
Wait for the time out confirmation.
Navigate to settings > iCloud and turn off contact syncing (keep contacts when prompted).
Reconnect the router to the internet and let the restore process complete.
Delete any iCloud contacts from iCloud.com on a computer.
Navigate to settings > iCloud and turn on contact syncing (merge contacts when prompted).
May I suggest that you carry out a back up to iTunes before you try anything, that way should things become even worse, you can at least restore back to where you are now.

IOS7 syncing with MS Outlook 2010 no longer syncs all the contact information

With the new iOS7 on an iPhone 4s, syncing with MS Outlook 2010 on win XP, the phone no longer syncs all the contact information as it used to before I updated to iOS7 and iTunes 11.1, and now ignores the "Home" addresses I have on Outlook. It also apprears to miss some other bits of information too, but the home addresses are key for when I am away from the computer. How can I resolve this syncing error? Thank you.

The same thing is happening to me since upgradng to iOS7, although I am syncing contacts with Mac contacts, not Outlook.
