This was done with the WAB (Windows Address Book) and now that many antivirus suites block access as a move to create a privacy shield, I don't see this working when folk have such protection installed.
However if all is stock and you don't have such protection installed, read

And again, if this is a limited account, I find it to fail.
Sorry but I have yet to find this explained or how to fix in simple terms any longer.

My daughter's PC has Window's XP operating system with emails in Outlook Express.
I have been trying without success to sync her Contacts and Address Book with her Ipad 2.
I understand that this can only be done using a USB cable link together with up-to-date itunes on the PC and I have been using both.
I would be grateful if someone could tell me, in simple terms, what is the correct procedure.
I understand icloud cannot be used in XP and I have not found Apple forums very helpful.
