How to synchronize contact picture between Outlook and your iPhone

Aug 23rd, 2008 by Gyoo

First, some figures:

  • iPhone camera resolution: 1600×1200 (72dpi)
  • iPhone screen resolution: 320×480 (160dpi)
  • iPhone contact picture display size: 64×64 (160dpi)
  • iPhone contact picture display size on call: 320×270 (160dpi)
  • Outlook import resolution: 72×96 (72dpi)

Yes Outlook sucks. You can only add into Oulook interface poor resolution image compare to the capacity of the iPhone.

The solution:

  1. On your PC, resize the image contact to 320×320 (160dpi), knowing that 25 pixels on the top and bottom will be semi-transparent when on call. Or any size bigger with the same ratio, up to 1600×1600 (bigger is sometime not imported into the iPhone photo library)
  2. On your PC, create a folder iPhone Photos\Contacts and move your contact photos inside
  3. Sync the photos into your iPhone with iTunes8.0 through the Photos tab. Select the iPhone Photos folder as source.
  4. Manually associated the photo to your contact on the iPhone (Edit ->Add Photo->Choose Existing Photo)
  5. Sync back the iPhone with iTunes. The photos will be associated automatically into Outlook with the good resolution this time.
