    What's the best way to sync my Gmail contacts with iPhone/Pad?


    I have three sets of contacts - WLM for my computer and iPad for email, and iPhone contacts that I use primarily for phone calls.

    Last night I cleaned up my WLM contacts by deleting many and combining some. Now, I want to transport the cleaned contacts listings to two iPhones and an iPad. I have a CSV copy of the cleaned WLM contacts, and can easily add phone numbers.

    I also want to sync all of the devices so that a change to one appears on all. Is this done through the cloud?

    Any help or referral to a URL that explains how to do this is appreciated.

    To be more specific - I'm wanting to go from a WLM contact to the iPhone contact represented by the attached screenshot. I have a CSV database for my WLM contacts. Is there some way to import that into my iPhone so that it recognizes phone numbers for telephone and texting?

    Not sure why you called the thread "Gmail contacts" while you don't refer to Gmail but only to Windows Live contacts if I'm not mistaken?

I have been all over the place trying to find a way to get my Gmail contact listed with last name first. I sure hope I do not have to reenter all 400 + contacts. Wow, what a job that would be. I do not have a Blackberry or anything like that. Conrad
