Issue with iCloud and PC Outlook 2007 Contacts iPhone 4

Hey,

So I finally managed to update to iOS 5, and it's fun playing around and learning the new things, but I already got issues. Minor, but still a nuissance.

Once synced, My Outlook Calendar became duplicated, and with the slide down tab started showing double notifications.

My bigger issue is with how it's syncing with the Contacts. It emptied the Main Contact folder into an iCloud Contact folder; fine. However, the Contact Cards would sync perfectly with the original Outlook Calendar, insterting birthdays and everything. Now, any NEW birthday that I try to add to a new contact, it won't show up on the iCloud calendar, without selecting "show birthdays". I find this redundant since it now makes double birthday reminders when for those already saved from before the iOS upgrade.

Why is this happening? Why can't I just continue using the Outlook Contact cards the same way, and have them load the same way? Why can't I just add them to the iPhone contact slot, and have them show up WITHOUT selecting the birthday calendar?

Thanks.

I synced my Outlook 2007 with iCloud, and now all the contacts in Outlook on my PC have disappeared. How did you get your contacts synced with your PC again? I am using Windows Vista.

Same issue. No more contacts in Outlook on my laptop, but all are moved to iCloud. I don't want to lose my laptop contacts. How do I get them back?

To put them BACK to Outlook Contact folder, and OUT of the iCloud contact folder, it's as simple as a CTRL+A, and drag into appropriate folder.

This method removes from iCloud Folder, and puts in Regular Folder, but I don't know if it's the right way of doing it. Cause now, I can't bring them BACK into the iCloud folder... I don't know what the deal is, it's very confusing.

Currently, they're back in the Contact folder, and my iCloud Contact folder (in Outlook) is empty. But on iCloud.com, they're all there.

That worked great, thanks. I'm not concerned with having the iCloud contacts or iClouds Control Panel anymore, it litteraly trashed my Outlook and iTunes after apple released a patch for the iCloud Control Panel.
