My Gmail Contact List Doesn't Match My Mac Contacts App

I use Gmail for my personal and business email. I want to look up my emails on my iPhone, iPad, laptop and desktop. No matter where I check it, and I want it to update across the board. How can I do this? Is there a manual for the use of Gmail?

List
  1. Google has apps for email for most phone OS's. Also when you enable an app to use Gmail, you allow access to your Google account, which begins the sync whenever you use the specific app. However, some apps have delays in their sync, such as a 15 minute push update on an iPhone for email. So, while it it possible to sync across phone, tablet, computer, it will most likely not be instantaneously.

    Google has a lot of info on how to sync across devices, as well as just 'Googling' for the info.

  2. Sign into Gmail.com through a browser. goto the settings screen enable imap, and look at the instructions to use and configure imap on devices, and configure it on your devices. voila, all mails on all devices.

  3. Use google sync, by logging in on google.com and m.google.com

  4. If you are using any device, chances are there is already a Gmail app on the device. If not you can simply download it from the App store on your device of choice. Supported by all devices and loved by all.
    Like the first commenter said, it is a web app and can easily sync your mail to all your owned devices.

  5. A point to note here is that if you are using an email client such as Thunderbird or Postbox to manage your email on your computer, check the setup so that it dosnt delete your mail from the server.

  6. Gmail is not a local drive it is served from internet so it does not matter whether you access gmail from computer or iphone it is already in sync..

  7. just sign into gmail and google account on all your devices.

  8. gmail doesnt need resync..everything is loaded to your device when you log in

  9. I believe all you have to do is make sure you have the app or way to check it, sign in, and have the devise remember your username and password. After you sync everything, as long as a you don't delete anything, you should be good to go.

  10. download and install Gmail app for all of your devices :
    Gmail app for android :

    Gmail for iOS :
    https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/gmail-email-from-google/id422689480?mt=8
    and for desktop i don't think there is official app for that but you can use postbox you can get it for free using your points her on MUO go to rewards section there is both versions for windows and Mac :

    • There are are official GMail apps for desktops too, however they are installed in Chrome browser from the Chrome store. You can even use GMaill offline by one othe clients. You can simply do a search Offline Gmail or you can search GMail (if you do not need offline feature) in the Chrome Store.

  13. GMail is a webapp, meaning it's not tied to specific device. No matter from where you're opening your account, its content will stay the same and you don't need to think for manual sync. I can log off from my computer and login from my phone, and everything will be the same.

I recently synced my contacts, and as a result, the “My Contacts” won’t show the names in my GMail contacts. It says “My Contacts (6718)”, but I can’t see or manage any of the names.

When you change a contact, that contact will change everywhere. On a Mac computer. On your Mac computer, open System Preferences. Click Internet Accounts. Click Google. Note: To use a different account, in the bottom left, click Add Google. Enter your email address and password. Check Contacts. On a Windows 10 computer.

  1. You are not going to believe how incredibly stupid this is, but there's a scroll bar hidden just to the right. Check the bottom of your window. Is there a scroll bar that suggests you can move a little more to the right? Do so. Now is there a vertical scrollbar that lets you scroll down through your entire contact list? Hope so. FYI, widening your window (in Firefox on a Mac, anyway) will NOT fix this problem. You always have to remember to scroll right to see the vertical scroll.

  2. Hello, what browser are you using for checking gmail? With that many contacts, I would check the zoom in your browser. Maybe if you change the zooming to a 100% your contacts will show.

  3. 1. when you click on 'other contacts', does they show contacts? or a blank page ?
    did you try restarting ?

    2. try to add a contact in my contacts with the button on your blank my contacts page, and see if the new contacts get displayed.
    if it works try following:

    3. go to my contacts, click on more, click on export, export it in csv format.
    and chaeck if the csv file has your contacts, most contacts willl have blank fields except name and email. you can check the file size to test whether it has contacts or a blank file.

    4.now import the csv file of my contacts.
    and see if it shows the contacts on the blank page.

    in case of duplicates, you can easily go to more >> find and merge
