i installed watchos 2 and ios 9 today however i have my contacts on icloud enabled but my watch still has no contacts my favorites are numbers not their name. i don't know what is going on it was working fine before upgrading.
watchos 2 contacts failed to synch on my watch from my phone
I'm having the same issue, plus my calendars & weather measurement type aren't syncing. (It's in Fahrenheit, but I use Celsius)
I had the same problem but I've found a solution which fixed it :
- Go to the Apple Watchapp on your iPhone
- General
- Reset
- Reset Sync Data
Wait for a few minutes, and it will be back!
I had the same problem. To resolve it I did the following.
- Ensured all my contacts were synced onto iCloud.
- I turned off iCloud syncing for my contacts, and selected delete from phone
- My phone was now empty ( which is why it is important to check they are in iCloud )
- I re-enabled syncing, which downloaded my contacts and then after a few seconds they were all transferred to the watch.
The button seems unresponsive... no alert or nothing indicating the reset... is this right?
Yes but it worked with my Watch, I imagine the animation is missing…
I cannot get either method to work as of yet. (re-syncing icloud vs. just trying the reset sync data button)
