Unsolved iphone Office 365 contacts
-
Is he using the Outlook app on iPhone?
There is a flag that needs to be toggled to enable contact sharing from his phone (and other devices) to Outlook.
-
Are you sure contacts are enabled on the account setup screen?
-
@dustinb3403 He's using just the regular mail app. Under accounts & Passwords he said the account he is using the Contacts is enabled. When making a change to a contact it's updating it in 365, but when creating a new contact, it's not showing up.
-
Is it being created in the wrong account?
-
My thought here is he is creating a contact on his phone, and his phone isn't sharing that contact with Office 365.
Check the local phone contact preferences.
-
@dustinb3403 Went to contact settings and changed Default account to the correct account now. Seeing if that will issue a good sync here soon.

Aren't you interning (or were interning) for @Mike-Davis ?
-
@dustinb3403 If he figures this one out, I'll keep him.
-
@DustinB3403 Just kidding, he's been full time with me since last December.
-
He's working with the end user and I was googling in the back ground since I don't know iPhones.

I just remember him from the Spicecorps out there in Albany from last year. (I think it's him)

Albany, Auburn same thing

@dustinb3403 The default account was it. It didn't sync the ones he created before the switch, so he had to re-create them. Thanks!

It's a bit of a haul but I may be able to. Do you know if anyone else from the Rochester area is planning to head down there?
-
not yet.

I have lost good contacts to this when I didnt realize that active sync didnt disable the local contacts. Assuming thats what was going on above.
My updated Outlook app keeps freezing up when I search for contacts, but I am using G Suite and Gmail in it, so maybe that makes the difference.
