Re: Can anyone tell me how I can makes sure that all my contacts are properly synced between my ICloud and Gmail accounts please?

[Christopher Chaltain]

I'm not sure what you're asking about, but yes it will. If you're 
talking Gmail, it'll be even easier since Gmail and using your Google 
account is pretty much the default on an Android device.

You don't need to do anything on the web or at Gmail. You just need to go into 
Settings -> Mail, Calendars, Contacts on your phone. Select your Gmail account 
and then just make sure Contacts is on. It'll use CardDav and sync your Google 
Contacts in the cloud with your addresses in your Google account on your phone.

Hi all

Thanks for the information I've just looked for CardDav in the App Store and 
it's not there. The only one remotely similar is something called All Sync 2. 
Any ideas? Has anyone heard of this app?

Re: More Info Needed on Syncing iPhone Contacts with Google was RE: Can anyone tell me how I can makes sure that all my contacts are properly synced between my ICloud and Gmail accounts please?

[Christopher Chaltain]

When your using iTunes to sync between your Outlook on your computer and 
your iPhone then you're just syncing with the local contacts on your 
iPhone. There are a few things you can do.


On your iPhone, you can just make sure the contacts option is checked in 
the settings for your Gmail account. This will create a separate address 
book on your phone that will be in sync with your Google Contacts. This 
will be separate from the local address book on your phone. Through the 
contacts app you can use either or both address books, All of your 
addresses will be presented in one list, so if you have the same account 
in Outlook and Google then you'll see it twice on your iPhone, if you 
have both address books checked.


Syncing between your iPhone and Outlook and syncing between your iPhone 
and Google will just update their own address books, so you won't be 
clobbering anything. The only problem you'll have is that you might have 
some duplicate entries.


I hope this makes sense so far.

What you can do, which is what I do, except I don't use Outlook, is just 
put all of your contacts in one place, such as Google Contacts. In this 
case, you'd have to use something on your PC to synch your Outlook 
contacts with Google and then keep them in sync. On your phone then, you 
would just stop using the local addresses and just use your Google 
Contacts. Like I said, this is what I do, but I use Thunderbird instead 
of Outlook and I have a plug in in Thunderbird that syncs my contacts 
between Thunderbird and Google Contacts. In this way, I just enter a 
contact in one place and it shows up everywhere.

The link provided in the history below had excellent details but

a paid Google account but just a free one that I got years ago when
setting up my Gmail account. Will I still be able to set up this sync

will I have to take some action to continually sync them?



Thanks in advance for any assistance.

Re: Can anyone tell me how I can makes sure that all my contacts are properly synced between my ICloud and Gmail accounts please?

[Christopher Chaltain]

Right, CardDav is a protocol and not an app. It allows you to sync your 
contacts between your phone and a contact server that supports CardDav. 
The Mail app in IOS already uses CardDav to sync Google Contacts. You 
don't need to set up a separate CardDav account. You just need to check 
the contacts box when you set up your Gmail account on your iPhone. It 
says the following in the URL that was provided earlier:


Under the hood, Apple is using the open standard IMAP, CalDAV, and 
CardDAV services to handle syncing Google services;



You shouldn't have to provide any server information. The Mail app will 
already know all of that when you set up your Google account. You'll 
just need your log in information for Gmail.

Hi all

Thanks for the information I've just looked for CardDav in the App Store and 
it's not there. The only one remotely similar is something called All Sync 2. 
Any ideas? Has anyone heard of this app?

I was going to ask exactly the same question. I've found it exactly as you

No I just used my email address and password and for the server i just put
ws102.contacts.gq1.yahoo.com
For you I don't know when it's going to be since you using Google or your 
iCloud so it would have to find that information out.

You are not going to find the Card DAV account in the app store, you will only 
be able to find it in the setting called mail contacts and calendars and if you 
go to add account it will be in other.

Hi all 

Thanks for the information I've just looked for CardDav in the App Store and 
it's not there. The only one remotely similar is something called All Sync 2. 
Any ideas? Has anyone heard of this app?

Re: Can anyone tell me how I can makes sure that all my contacts are properly synced between my ICloud and Gmail accounts please?

['Eleanor Roberts' via VIPhone]

This all sounds really good. So is this CardDav something you have to get from 
the App Store?, or is it already available on my phone or IPad? Is there any 
chance you could e-mail across some full/idiot-proof instructions so I can get 
it set up to sync everything to Google Contacts? Also, what would be the 
equivalent that I'd need for Android?, as I have an Android tablet too. 

Many thanks for all your help with this.

Like I said, I don't use a Mac or iCloud. I just use Google Contacts on 
my iPhone and other devices.

Re: Can anyone tell me how I can makes sure that all my contacts are properly synced between my ICloud and Gmail accounts please?

[Christopher Chaltain]

Sorry, I didn't read the whole thread closely enough. Using CardDav, 
which like I said is now part of the Mail apps Gmail support, will sync 
your contacts between your Gmail account on your phone and Google 
Contacts in the cloud. It won't sync between iCloud and Google Contacts. 
I just keep all of my contacts in Google Contacts and then point all of 
my devices to it, IOS, Linux, Android, Windows, and everything is all 
synced with Google Contacts. I don't use contacts in iCloud at all.

there and it moves everything over. Any time you update on Google, it 
also updates on your iPhone. Do a little research on cardav accounts and 
see if that's what you're wanting to do.

Hi all

I'm wondering if anyone can help me. I want to try to make sure that all my 
contacts are completely synced between my ICloud and Gmail accounts, so that 
they will all work regardless of what device I'm using and so that they're all 
up-to-date/contain the same information and there aren't loads of duplicates 
about. Does anyone know how I can do this?? I'm sure there's a way, but I've 
just had a total blank.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Many thanks.
