Gmail Question

I setup Gmail as my default email and everything works fine except it doesn't show my contacts when I compose an email. To get around this I also added my yahoo account and in the mail settings under my yahoo account I unchecked all the boxes except my contacts. Now when I compose a Gmail email it will show my contacts. My question is why doesn't my contacts show up with just having my Gmail account setup? Do I have to leave it this way for it to work correctly?

iPad 2, iOS 5.1

All I have to do is swipe the sidebar from the left and goto mailboxes and it shows inbox, gmail and all labels acociated with gmail. So no need to select gmail. In fact, I don't even see "accounts" listed?


I did check and changed my mail to sync to no limit and it brought all my info to my label folders. So all is working. I just have to get used to the look and feel of Exchange.
