    Where are the contacts stored? If they're in google, yahoo, or etc. then they don't have the needed options. You'll need to use iCloud.

    I don't think iCloud is needed. But I do know that the can't be setup correctly when syncing via Google or Yahoo. So far I've tested an Exchange 2007 account, works and no contact syncing on iOS 5, works. But Snow Leopard's Address Book doesn't seem to like the "Related People" field very much.

    I don't like the Snow Leopard address book much!! It always changes my stuff.

    Me too. But for those few times I need to open it, it nukes all/most of my iPhone's custom fields with the next sync.

    Is this for sure? I thought exchange/gcontacts might be the issue... okay. i will assume so and let it be until i am able to quit google entirely
