Contacts will not sync via iCloud - once again!

I get are leaning on the previous, mostly by now quite old, posts on this topic, but have not found answers that helped me.

I have an iPhone 5s and a Mac mini with Mountain Lion (10.8.5). I have Contacts selected in iCloud on both devices, but the Contacts now does not synchronize anyway.

I looked in iCloud.com. My contacts are there, but they are as they appear on my iPhone and they were on my Mac, a few days ago, not as they appear now on my Mac after some additions and changes.

What can I do?

On the iPhone, tap settings > iCloud > Contacts.

Disable the Contacts then turn it back on.

On Mac, open System Preferences > iCloud. Clear the Contacts check box, and then reselect it.

Give a few minutes of re iCloud synchronize data.

  • Mac calendar not syncing via iCloud

    It started June 1.  When I put an event on my calendar to the iPhone, it does not sync with Mac calendar but it works very well vice versa i.e. If I put an event / or delete a Mac calendar it appears immediately on the iPhone calendar.  I rebooted Mac and iPhone several times but that has not solved the problem.  I'd appreciate if anyone has a suggestion on how to solve this problem.

    Thank you!

  • Remarks on the EPUB files, do not sync via iCloud in iOS9.3

    I'm 9.3.1 on an iPad IOS 4 and iPhone 6; OS x 10.11.4 on a Macbook of retina of 2015. Can I synchronize EPUB books between devices in iBooks via iCloud, but notes are not synchronized (from the iPad with other devices). I use an Apple for the App Store ID and iBooks Store and another for iCloud. My questions are the following:

    • Expected notes synchronization iCloud on EPUB and PDF files?
    • If so, someone else has had this problem and - obvously - does anyone know a fix?

    I contacted Apple Support on Twitter, and they referred me to https://www.apple.com/support/ios/ibooks/, but no joy.

    you are not alone. I have this problem days now, notes and bookmarks are not synchronized more :__(

  • iCloud contacts will not sync on macOS Sierra

    The contact.app on my mac does not download the new contacts I added to iClound via iPhone. I'm sure that the contacts are added successfully I checked on iCloud.com.

    I also check and unchecked "enable this account" (account iClould) in Contacts.app preference, but it does not work. The Fetch is set to "Automatic" or "Every minute", but none solved the problem.

    If you have already enabled Contacts switch under settings > iCloud, another option would be to sign out of your account iCloud on the device and reconnect.

  • Facebook contacts will not sync properly

    So I was wondering if someone else sees the same problem with the triumph. I have synced my Facebook contacts to see that I can't call one of them. Three digits are added before the number when you make a call ("001" the international dialing code for the United States) and for this reason, the call does not pass through. A similar problem occurs when trying to text message, these contacts as well. They appear as just the number rather than a name or the picture even if it lets you text the correct contact. It just does not display their right.

    Everyone knows about this problem? And how can we solve this problem? (Motorola, I'm looking at YOU). It's really annoying and I want it fixed.

    I think I found a work around for this problem.

    Settings > call settings > International prefix > remove 011 > arrow to the left (capacitive touch)

    Confirmed to work.

  • Contacts not syncing between iCloud/iOS and "on my Mac".

    Greetings,

    I very recently discovered contacts that I create on iOS website or iCloud does not synchronize to the section "on my Mac" (i.e. a local copy) of the Contacts and contacts created in the group "on my Mac" inside the Contacts.app will not sync to iCloud and iOS.

    I drove most of the discussions in the forum and tried all the remarkable solutions, and none have worked for me:

    -Put iCloud and extinguish in iCloud Prefs

    -turn on/contacts turn off in prefs Internet accounts

    -Group iCloud toggle in the pref Contacts.app pane

    -different versions of the above Contacts.app is leaving or quitting smoking in specific order

    On a side note, I also recently started having crashes repetitive .app Contacts when you try to type in the search classified all contacts; whereas research on behalf of any group has worked well.

    I went up to destroy ~/Library/Application Support / address book (after saving an archive on my Mac) and starting with a new "on my Mac' database.» Solved the crash of research, it has not solved the problems of synchronization.

    Finally, I resorted to copy all contacts to iCloud and hanging out in "on my Mac", which is temporarily resolved the question of having a set of contacts stored locally, so I can work in offline mode. It does not, however, solve the problem to know what contacts that were created on my Mac are gone, because they do not synchronize to iCloud in the first place. I hope that I'll have to go through the ugly to reimport process archive backup and try to merge more than 1200 contacts to retrieve those on my Mac, but then iCloud still will not have these missing contacts without synchronization.

    So, is this expected today at El Capitan and iOS behavior 9? How can I find out when manually drag the new iOS/iCloud contacts on my Mac? And vice versa?

    Seems to me Syncing should be only that. synchronization not only icloud, iOS, but also and on my Mac, just the way that it used to work.

    Anyone have any new ideas?

    Your first paragraph is normal. On my Mac contacts will not sync to iCloud. If you want to synchronize, you must add to iCloud.

  • contacts in messages app DISAPPEAR (do not sync to icloud?)

    I noticed recently that the contacts that I create in the iMessage on my iphone application (by going to the conversation > Details > (phone number) info > create a new contact) is not sync to iCloud or whatever it is. I have no idea where these contacts will because that's where it gets weird.

    If I ever want to text one of these contacts, I just start a new conversation in the iMessage application, type their name and their contact appear

    But if I wanted to call, if I went to the phone application and typed in their name nothing would leap upward. If I went to the app contacts one typed their name in anything would jump upward. There is literally no trace of the any of these contacts outside of the messages on my iphone app.

    Help!

    I have an iphone 6s and my software is up to date

    My iMessage is connected to my iCloud

    You synchronize your contacts with other services, e-mail or cloud service? If you open Contacts on your device, if you look in the upper left corner, does show all Contacts, or are they showing? It is possible that your contacts are stored in a different location, if you look at any of your e-mail accounts, they turned on Contacts?

  • Notes Sync in iCloud.

    The application Notes on my Mac will not sync with iCloud, so is not picking up changes made on my iPad or iPhone.

    Any ideas what to do? It has not synchronized in 2 months

    I agree that it should work. But there are a few questions:

    • Are some notes enabled (checked in the preferences system iCloud? Apple-> Preferences menu-> iCloud?

    • What iOS versions that you use on your iPad and iPhone? The first versions of iOS of Notes is not compatible with the Notes on the Mac.

  • iCloud contacts do not sync on all devices

    can someone help me understand why iCloud contacts are not sync on all devices?  I confirmed that keep the changes via my macbook on the iCloud touch shows almost immediately changes on some devices, but not all.

    A comment interesting, devices do not receive the change are the same Member of the family.  so I can't assume it's a matter of iCloud.  I ran a backup restore on one of the devices affected with no resolution.

    I fear I am missing something so basic, but at this point, I am really puzzled.

    Thanks for all the ideas.

    So all the machines in question are signed on the same iCloud account, and they have all Contacts enabled in settings > iCloud?

    If so, what is the level of iOS and the model of the device that is not synchronized? What is model level and iOS, other devices?

    See you soon,.

  • When I first installed the new 5.1 icloud, OUTLOOK 2016 worked well. Updated windows 10 and know icloud will not work. ICloud show that it works.

    When I first installed the new 5.1 icloud, OUTLOOK 2016 worked well. Updated windows 10 and know icloud will not work. ICloud show that it works. Have reinstalled icloud a lot of time and know that the add-in does not show up in OUTLOOK.  Help

    I was pulling my hair re the incompatibility of iCloud and Outlook of Office 365 2016.  I finally got things to work on three of my computers - which are on the latest version of Windows 10.

    The steps that worked for me:

    (1) uninstall the plugin iCloud (what version you have); the uninstall may fail but if so don't worry as step 3 below overlays some iCloud plugin version you have installed

    (2) open the Control Panel, uninstall, change/repair Office 365; Select fast repair

    (3) reinstall iCloud plugin (version 5.1), then restart the system by following the instructions

    (4) after the reboot, plug in iCloud application Apple ID and password; Make sure that you enter your apple with the suffix icloud.com ID (e.g., [email protected])

    (5) check the iCloud options to your will (e.g., photo synch, synchronization of bookmarks, sync mail/calendar, etc.)

    (6) check apply it, leave the work plugin iCloud for a minute, when he finishes, check the closing

    (7) open Outlook 2016 and check your calendar or contacts or anything that you indicated in step 5, that you want to synchronize with iCloud.com

    I hope it works for you!

  • Help with calendar with Outlook sync blackBerry Smartphones to all appointments will not sync...

    I'm not a great tech, but I have some skills good enough for a girl, if I say so myself... but I'm so frustrated... I need help.

    This is my first public post... So I hope that I give all the information but who will help, if I missed something, please let me know.

    Here is some background info:

    I have a BB "BOLD"

    I use it NOT on a company (network)

    I sync my bb with my dell

    Windows Vista (UGH!)

    Outlook - Version 6.0.6001 Service Pack 1 Build 6001

    My calendar and my contacts are the most important reason, I have a bb

    My contacts are FINE

    My schedule is a MESS

    I have 2 separate email addresses work well my bb... For the purposes of his post, I will refer to them as

    [email protected] and

    [email protected]

    When I do appointments in my work calendar, I do one of 2 things to get all my appointments on the BB

    Plan my gmail as a participant in the designation address or

    Prior to the appointment to my gmail from my work email address

    When I make an appointment directly from my BB I do it by selecting Menu > new = my default settings of the account gmail under the 'send '.

    BB News:

    When I'm in the calendar and select > Menu.Options > calendars > I have 3 options

    [email protected] who has (518 entries)

    Default device that has (157 results)

    [email protected] who has (429 entries)

    When I go to the Menu > Options > Advanced Options > Services > (CICAL) by default is [email protected] , it shows that I have options to select my Gmail or my .mac address

    That is the problem - it did not used to happen, and I frankly did not know that my backup was messed up so I don't know how long this is happening.

     

    When I sync with Outlook

    There are only 518 appointments that are synchronized

    I can't get the other 157 (defect of the unit) + 429 (mac) to sync with my outlook

    Can someone help me to get them all on my gmail calendar? or in my outlook so that I can then sync back with the BB

    I will not sync my bb with my mac

    Here's what I tired:

    • Yelling at the computer
    • Yelling in Spanish at the BlackBerry
    • ignoring the two
    • I stopped myself to throw both of them against the wall.

    But seriously

    I put the BB Desktop Manager to perform a one-way synchronization > bb to outlook = NOTHING only synchronize gmail

    I changed the (CICAL) to my mac address and synchronized = NOTHING - only synchronization gmail

    I am at a loss and would appreciate any help.

    Hello

    We will remember and then on MAC records.

    Outlook contains records of 158 of the associated Gmail Calendar.

    The calendar by default folders must be cleared and restored to the associated Gmail Calendar.

    The Blackberry associated gmail calendar resulting will be then synchronized with Outlook to add the former default records

    resulting calendars synced to Outlook and Blackberry.

    Reading this, I propose more than once. Method 3 is what we do.

    Let me know, tomorrow, what questions you have the procedure so that we can ensure we succeed.

    KB16063 Unexpected results occur when syncing with a BlackBerry smartphone that has several CICAL service records.

    Let me know how it goes!
