synchronizing contacts

Under OS 10.11.6, on iMac and MacBook Air iPad and iPhone running iOS 9.3.5.  I can't sync my Contacts.  Each device has a different set of Contacts.  Help please.

You synchronize using iCloud? Are there contacts on my Mac?

Try to go to iCloud.com to see if the elements are there and whether the device or the computer. That should indicate if the device or computer is not synchronizing. If the computer, try going to System Preferences/iCloud and stop synchronization. Wait a few minutes, then recheck the timing. If the device, go to settings/iCloud and do the foregoing. You can also try connecting to iCloud and then reconnect.

  • 500 + no contact name after upgrade to iOS 10

    I noticed after that 10 iOS updated there are 500 + contacts with No Name. My real contacts seem to be good. I deleted the 500 contacts No Name (a very tedious process!) and I checked and I had like 12 new contacts No Name. What is the cause?

    Hello Rcouter,

    Thank you for using communities Support from Apple. I have a problem with the contacts after update is not what you expect. If I understand correctly, you have a problem with the contacts added with No Name tag. On this basis, I would go to settings > Contacts and tap the accounts to see which accounts are synchronizing contacts. Then turn them off one by one to see which account is causing this issue. You can also consult the web portal for the synchronization of contacts, such as Yahoo or Gmail, the accounts and see if this problem is reflected there. If this problem is with iCloud contacts specifically, this article can help to solve this problem:

  • Skype duplicate contacts and merge Outlook Contacts

    Skype has just decided to synchronize my Skype contacts with my Outlook contacts, resulting in a gigantic mess. I would like to keep these two separate worlds, although there may be few people on both lists. Reason is that I consider my Outlook Contacts more private - only people close belongs there. So I use my Skype account in labor, of course, different sets of contacts.

    Current state is when my Outlook Contacts, I can see people from Skype, in the calendar, I see birthday events of Skype accounts (I don't like really not on). In addition, some duplicate contacts or even tripled in my list (and 'Cleaning' Outlook is not able to handle these).

    Is there a way:

    -How to restore this synchronization, delete Skype from Outlook Contacts contacts

    -How to keep Skype/MSA of this yet (other than creating separate accounts or don't use only not Skype at all)

    -How to not have synchronized contacts, but with MSA associated with Skype, FB, LinkedIn and Twitter, so I can see pictures of people dedicated to my contacts

    Where/how to connect me to Skype

    -Skype on desktop

    -Skype on iOS (my main phone, where all contacts appear messy way)

    -Skype running on my WP with 10 Windows mobile installed (my phone of dust collection)

    (I don't really know if this is the question on the side of Skype or Microsoft - I see redundancy developing UWP Skype app, which could be the source of this issue; in any case, please fill bug for this issue)

    After some time trying to figure out what is the problem and how to fix it, I simply decided to untie MSA of Skype... Indeed, on the side of Skype it was done immediately, unfortunately it took Oultook.com almost a week to stop showing me the Skype contacts.

    Detective Conan... I wish that Microsoft had not come with this fusion of all contact...

  • I have more contacts in my iPhone

    I have an iPhone6S more

    As I had problems synchronizing contacts in my iPhone with iCloud, I followed the instructions:

    Disable the iCloud Contacts and turn it back on

    and I chose to delete all contacts from my phone. When I turned on contacts back I do not have contacts all do more and they or synchronize with iCloud.

    This only happens with contacts and NOT with the calendar.

    Have you tried restoring your iPhone to a previous backup until you have disabled the iCloud Contacts?

    Before you do this, I suggest you:

    1. Go to iCloud.com
    2. Click on the settings icon
    3. Scroll down and click on 'Restore Contacts'

    Thank you

  • Sync blackBerry Smartphones 9810 Contacts problem

    Info on the device

    Your carrier: Telus Mobility

    Model information and the version of the OS: V7.1.0.267, the 5.1.0.230 platform

    Hello

    I have all 85contacts added for the last 2 months (the last time I've updated my phone) on my 9810 who does not sync with gmail contacts since then.

    I tested what is working/not working not:

    -Add/Edit/Remove contact the 9810 sync with gmail.

    -Add/Edit/Delete on the PB contact syncs to gmail. Changes on the gmail contacts will appear on 9810.

    -Add/Edit/Delete on the Android phone contact syncs to gmail. Changes on the gmail contacts will appear on 9810.

    So I tried to empty my contacts using the RSET trick in the contacts option. Disable/enable the option contact synchronization and BIS. I also tried to delete this account gmail from BIS and reinstall. When I re-installed, I received this email:

    Subject: Action Required: Contact synchronization has stopped

    Contacts have stopped being synchronized between [email protected] and your BlackBerry® device. To resume synchronizing contacts with this email account:
    1. Open the Contacts application on your device.
    2. Press the Menu key and click Options.
    3. Select the Contact List for [email protected].
    4. Set Wireless Synchronization to Yes
    5. Press the Menu key and click Save.

    Of course, wireless synchronization was already on...

    Any idea on a solution that can help? Unless anyone can help downgrade will be needed! :/

    Here is my solution:

    So I put day to V7.1.0.746 and back! The only problem is that if you enter only the name of a company, it won't sync until you write something in the name (necessary to repeat the name of the company).

    Enjoy!

    I can add my credentials of the Exchange in the Meadow (if I enter them via the email app or the calendar application, it makes no difference).  My email will be synchronized, contacts will be synchronized, but calendar will not.

    When I enter the calendar app and click on the "ALL" button at the top right, its actually not my Exchange calendar in option list. "  It lists my Google calendar and Palm profile as options.

    When I click on the tab "Calendar" from the menu at the top left and go on 'Preferences & accounts', under the terms of the exchange of 'Account' is listed.  But it doesn't have a name under it.  For example, under Palm profile, it will be my name in grey letter, same thing for Google.  But the Exchange, he said nothing.

    Help?  Anyone?

    OK, nevermind, got it to work.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones ABRimContacts Crash

    I have problems of synchronizing contacts.  I did the advice of synchronization only one thing at a time (contacts, calendar, etc.). I don't sync contacts and calendar at this time because I just got the phone last week.  But I made a mistake when I went to sync cleanup knowing that I understood the problem.  I did own synchronization before data purging.  I mixed them up.  Is there something I can do?  Or what I do all the steps to uninstall PocketMac and clear each extension and file which does not uninstall it.

    I solved my problem.  I had contacts from my mother from her address book shared on our network.  Well, she had an X with an initial after the X to distinguish cellular family phone numbers.  I deleted all those on my BB and my address book.  I have synced then only my contacts and no mistake. So I resynced with contacts and calendar (only to learn the BB, used to use only Palm) and no error messages.

  • Release date target of blackBerry Smartphones for Office 2010 64 bit update for Desktop Manager?

    Was very happy to get a new laptop with Windows 7 yesterday and which I suppose is the 64-bit version of office. Downloaded Desktop Manager and proceeded to attempt to synchronize. All the birthdays and the synchronized contact info but no other dates on the calendar. Spent way too much time trying to run when I discovered that the RIM software does not support the last office. GREAT!

    Is there a deadline for the BB desk top soft ware which takes in charge the last version of 2010?

    Now, I'll go back and manually put my appointments in my new computer. Sigh...

    Thank you.

  • Contacts synchronized partially, then stalled

    I got about 4000 contacts and after 3 attempts, moved them from my old Palm Desktop. webOS sync some of the 'A' (48 of them), then seems to have stalled. Phone left on all night, but no progress. Applications to synchronize no comment other that a brief 'accounts sync', so difficult to see if something happens. Phone State claims it has synchronized 3871 (perhaps some of the 4000 + were merged - nice!), but only the account Gmail poster 48. Switched to another account by default, but after an hour, the phone displays still only 3 contacts (3 initially to the new Gmail account).

    I've got low power of the OTA signal in the House, but have active WiFi on & excellent signal strength. Phone tries to use OTA instead of WiFi? Any suggestions for the completion of synchronization?

    Well, did not help here, but will answer to myself, since I solved the problem and others could benefit.

    1. find the last contact that synchronized with Google

    2 delete the contact from Palm Desktop AFTER the one that got to (in alphabetical order by family name)

    3. reset the phone, list of partial contacts deleted from Google

    4 reloaded the phone with DTA

    5. sync with Google, and all the contacts make this time (approximately 50 contacts per minute)

    Looking at the deleted contact, he had a carriage for the business phone number, but not of return number. Perhaps the special character messed up the conversion? If so, Palm should do a better job of filtering & escape special characters when dealing with random user input around...
