We have a user using Outlook 2010, Exchange 2007, Active Sync and an iPhone 5 iOS 6.1.3. Whenever he adds new contacts in Outlook they show up on his iPhone with only a name, there are no phone numbers, email addresses, etc. Any help is appreciated.
iPhone 5, iOS 6.1.3
This issue has been resolved. The user was designating the new contacts as primary and in doing so only the first and last name were being sent to the iPhone. Once user changed the designation to Mobile or Office or Home the entire contents of the new contact were sent to the iPhone.
I saw that post and i had to reply for it.
A little-great-working solution for that is to run those 3 lines (one line at a time) on powershell and all the "Other" lable contacts will change to "Mobile" label and here you go, like a magic - all contacts phone numbers are now visible on the phone again.
(Drop the 1. 2. 3. from the lines of course)
Hope i helped someone 🙂
1. $outlook = new-object -com outlook.application
2. $contacts = $outlook.Session.GetDefaultFolder(10)
3. $contacts.Items | % { if($_.MobileTelephoneNumber -eq "") { $_.MobileTelephoneNumber = $_.OtherTelephoneNumber; $_.OtherTelephoneNumber = ""; $_.save() } }
If have been looking for a solution for this strange thing for weeks, now the solution is here ;-)
The shell script from Maor Zohar works perfect! Thanks for posting.
Contacts created in Outlook appear on iPhone with only a name, no phone numbers, email addresses and so on
