  • The application for iPhone cannot synchronize SMS and notes, because the Apple does not allow application access to them.

  • Hi
    I have 410 contacts.
    I would like to copy these contacts to an iCloud. I have made the file to my computer but I get a message that it can't be imported to iCloud.
    Do anyone know why?
    unknown user, 01/07/2017
    • Hi, you have to send you request to iCloud support. We are PhoneCopy.com. Sorry PhoneCopy support team, 01/07/2017
      • Hi again
        I have a challenge. When I try to uload the VCR file to iCloud I get a message telling that the contacts can't be uploaded due to failure in the readings.
        I have contacted Apple and they told med that the Vcard file has to have a format called 3.0 otherwise it can't be uploaded.
        Can you help me try to find out what I can do please?

        • Hi, we are using CSV version 2.1 which is most used. If you need your contacts export to version 3.0 we included it into our application for Windows. Please check https://www.phonecopy.com/en/pages/how_to_transfer_contacts_from_windows_os
          But if you just need import your contacts to iPhone or iPad we have an application for iOS. Can you explain why you want import your contacts to iCloud?
