How do you load your contacts from Outlook.com to iPhone?

[AB Lambert]

Is there an automatic way to load my contacts from my Outlook.com email account? Getting an iPhone 6 (Never used IOS) on Friday.

Thanks,
A.B.

Great, It will also sync calendars and mail. It is a pain to setup with android.

I use outlook.com mail, and I found that setting it up as exchange instead of using the outlook.com setting in iOS results in a much better experience.

That sound like a good idea.

Yes at home I pretty much use OS10 at work 100% Windows so its nice to have both calendars sync.

Should I use the Outlook.com or exchange server option to load my contacts, and calendar?

I would love to have my pictures associated with my contacts loaded with the information. Android will not load the contact images with the information.

Did you add your google account? My pictures from my google account are associated with my contacts on the iPhone. When I originally set it up there was no outlook.com it was just exchange.

On my Android?

I never used my Gmail account for anything associated with my email, contacts or calendar. I used the Hotmail.com and then changed it to outlook.com.

I mean your contacts on your android phone, did you sync them with google? i have all three and then some, but I sync google with Outlook and Outlook with iPhone and my contact pics were all sync.

Do you use pc or mac? If you use pc try try syncing outlook with iCloud.

Hotmail/Outlook.com is native push on iOS. I don't see any difference in manually configuring it via Exchange or just typing in my username/password.

Will the native push also push the exact content that an Exchange would? I don't see why not, but I am assuming.

It works perfectly on iOS. Android is a mess.

It works just like it does on windows phone

It works just like exchange would. It has EAS.
