iCloud Messed Up My Contacts

[bushido]

Hi, i set up my iCloud, Mac & iPhone but i have a problem between the Mac and iCloud.

everything is doubled if i have iCloud on my mac enabled

here's a screenshot

iCloud unchecked:


Mac with iCloud:



do u understand my problem?

edit: should i try to maybe delete all the contacts that show when i have iCloud on my Mac disabled? might it be all doubled bc my iPad 2 is still on 4.3.3 and relies on the contacts that arent on the cloud and always syncs them back?

This is becoming a well-documented but frustrating problem. iCal is completely bolluxed as well. Here's a partial solution:

Another solution is to simply not use iCloud for now and go back to syncing with your computer.

Hey! Do I have the option of not using iCloud and syncing with computer on my new shiny iP4s? I was reluctant to do anything iCloud until the next update.

If I can then that's super ......

iirc, without iCloud, it will only update your contacts when syncing with iTunes.

i disabled contact syncing via itunes and sync the address book on all my devices/macs to google contacts.
