[QUOTE="nycfonephreak, post: 1477135, member: 284433"] Finally got back to trying to get this set up with no success. On the MBP I don't see in Sys Prefs under iCloud where I can sync to a list. The only app in the iCloud Prefs panel that has any options is Photo Stream Contacts and calendars get synced from Gmail to my iPhone and iPad using an Exchange email account (my Gmail address). As soon as I change or add a contact on either iOS device or in my desktop browser (logged into gmail) the contact is synced to the other two. I was hoping to sync contacts to my MBP by setting either my iPhone or iPad to sync contacts to iCloud and from there to the MBP. Neither the iPhone nor iPad can sync contacts to iCloud. When I try to turn on contact syncing to iCloud from either of those, it says Exchange contacts cannot be synced to iCloud. I also tried to set up an Exchange mail account on the MBP set to just sync Contacts directly with Gmail - similar to how it is set up on the iOS devices - but that didn't work either. My login credentials were accepted but no sync occurs. Any suggestions? [/QUOTE]
