[QUOTE="Lefty Loco, post: 1635608, member: 211743"] Forgive me if this has been previously discussed. I tried the search function and couldn't find a thread related to my issue. Every time I sync my iPhone 6 with iTunes it gives me the message you see in the image I attached (hopefully). It says syncing will change more than 25% of my contacts or groups on this computer. I recently (finally) decided to stop using Microsoft Entourage for my office needs and use all Apple software like iCal, Address Book, and MacMail. I was able to successfully transfer my contacts and calendar appointments from Entourage to Address Book and iCal. So I remembered I still had that folder full of VCF's or whatever on my desktop from when I did the transfer and I thought that must be the problem. I deleted it but that didn't fix the issue. So then I went to the very laborious task of going through my contacts one by one with both my iPhone and my MacBook Address Book, making sure they all match perfectly. Of course there is the possibility going through that many contacts I made a few slip-ups, but 25%? Surely something else must be going on. Do I need to clear everything out of Entourage or completely delete the software? I'd like to keep it if possible even though I no longer plan to use it. As far as I know, I "disconnected" Entourage, but maybe I missed something and that's what's causing the issue? [ATTACH=full]21643[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
