Exchange contacts do not appear in iCloud On my iPad and iPhone I have several email accounts: three Gmail and one Exchange account. I stopped using the Exchange account and tried to remove it from the iPhone, but also all my contacts were deleted. On the iPad the Exchange account is still configured and the contacts are still there.

Is there a way to transfer all contacts into iCloud and distribute it again on the iPhone (and my MacBook)?

  Data stored with iCloud will not interact with your Microsoft
  Exchange data, while likewise your Exchange data will not interact
  with iCloud data.
