How To Sync Contacts Between An iPhone And iPad

Users can enable iCloud Contacts from an iPhone, iPod Touch, iPad or Mac, but contacts stored on a desktop might take an extra step to get up and running. On an iOS or iPadOS device, start by opening the Settings app and clicking on the user’s name at the top of the page. Then, tap the ‘Cloud’ row in the middle of the screen. On this page, users can see and change the iCloud preferences enabled and disabled with individual toggles. Next, scroll down until the ‘Contacts’ row is shown, and tap the toggle so that it turns green. A prompt will appear asking the user if they would like to merge their contacts to iCloud or cancel the operation. Selecting ‘Merge’ will import all contacts stored on individual devices to iCloud.

Some contacts stored on the Mac might not get automatically imported to the cloud after iCloud Contacts has been set up. This is because Mac computers differentiate where data is stored by designating it as ‘On My Mac’ or in ‘iCl0ud Drive.’ According to Apple Support. If the contact information is stored ‘On My Mac,’ it will not automatically be added to iCloud. To check if some contacts aren’t being synced across devices, open the Contacts app on the Mac and drag all contacts from ‘On My Mac’ to ‘iCloud.’ This will add all connections to the cloud, making them available on all devices. It’s a convenient feature for users who have multiple devices, and it makes it easy to import contacts to new devices when it is time for an upgrade.
