I'm totally unimpressed and that's the biggest understatement I've ever made. I've never seen such a screwed up mess in my life. And as mentioned above, iCloud isn't turned on, the Control Panel is gone, and I couldn't use it if I wanted to. I've told iTunes to sync all Contacts, and I've told it to sync only those business contacts, but neither causes them to move from my phone.Īnd to top it all off iTunes is still telling me that my contacts are being synced with iCloud over the air and it warns me that I may end up with doubled entries. I thought I could just sync them back to Outlook using iTunes, but it doesn't work. POOF! Fortunately these business contacts are still on my phone. Step 6: You will get the following confirmation dialog, next.
Step 5: In the resulting iCloud dialog, select the Remove radio button and then click on the Next button. But do not worry about it Step 4: Click on the Modify button. These were a subgroup of my contacts and were removed without my being asked, or warned that they were being deleted. Step 3: Select the iCloud entry to reveal the Modify button. Additionally, a whole group of my Contacts disappeared from Outlook. It still says iCloud along with my normal Contacts, but it's not selectable or deletable. When I got finished iCloud was gone from Outlook, sort of. During the uninstall I selected the option to keep a copy of my contacts. So, I turned iCloud Outlook Contacts syncing off, signed out of iCloud, and removed the iCloud Control Panel. I decided that the convenience of not having to sync my Contacts and Notes manually was not worth the problems that I've experienced by having iCloud integrated into Outlook.
