Contacts STILL not syncing from Mac to mobile devices via iTunes

Hello bergnorm,

Thank you for posting in the Apple Support Communities. I understand that contacts aren't syncing from your Mac to your iPhone as expected, and I'd like to share some information with you that might help.

If you use iTunes to sync, I recommend taking these steps:

Sync contacts and calendars in iTunes on Mac with devices

Alternatively, you can use iCloud to sync your contacts across your devices. Here's how:

Keep your contacts up to date on all of your devices with iCloud

However, if you're already using iCloud, these steps might be beneficial:

If your iCloud Contacts, Calendars, or Reminders won’t sync

I hope this information is useful. Kind regards.

bergnorm,

Thanks for getting back in touch with us after reviewing those support articles, and for those additional details. 

From here, I suggest considering how these contacts were added to your Mac, then isolating the issue to a particular account. If you notice a trend happening with a particular account (i.e. Google, Yahoo, Hotmail, etc.), try removing those contacts, then adding them back before trying to sync them to your iPhone again. Here's more information about adding contacts from an internet account:

Add contacts from iCloud, Google, and more to Contacts on Mac

You might also test the issue further by logging into a new user account to see if the issue happens there. Here's how:
