Hi, I have a problem with synchronising of contacts between my iPhone 5S, iPad 2 and Macbook MBP Pro Retina. I did a bit of googling and the more I read, the more I realised I don’t fully understand what would be the required configuration of settings on each device.
Currently on my iPhone in Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars for Contacts Default Account - I have “on my iPhone” selected. On my iPad in Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars for Contacts Default Account - I have “Pete GHD”. selected. GHD is the work email account I have set up on the iPad. On the Macbook, I have iCloud with Contacts “ticked”. I presume all defaults (on the iOS devices) should be set to iCloud. I can make the change on the iOS device settings but will this bring them altogether in the cloud? Can someone who understands this iCloud thing give a recommendation for where I should go with my settings please across the three devices? Maybe I need to provide more information to enable an answer to be accurate. Happy to do that. A further irritation is my wife’s phone (same AppleID) has Contacts, and these are in “my” contacts list on all my devices. Not a big challenge but just clutter with unnecessary crossing of contacts between us. Not sure if iCloud can manage contacts lists for multiple people with the same AppleID to be seperate to each other and not cross over like I am experiencing. I hope I have made my question and issue clear. All devices are at the current iOS/OSX version. Peter Crisp petercr...@westnet.com.au
