Contact Fields Duplicated

Whenever I sync my BB with my Outlook CONTACTS I end up with bad data on my BB for some of the contacts. Sometimes it will drop a contact photo, sometimes it duplicates fields like BIRTHDAY and HOME and EMAIL etc. Then I have to spend an hour going through manually to check and correct the contacts on my BB. Its as if the fields don't line up on the Computer Outlook and the BB Contacts during the sync. It seems to be random. But the fields I get trouble with are photo, birthday,anniversary,personal email,work email,home phone, etc
The Outlook contacts are fine an never get screwed up, Why can't it just sync what is in Outlook exactly to the BB ?

Hey Bpete,
Thanks for the post.
Has this issue been going on since the first synchronization? Also what version of BlackBerry 10 are you currently running? Go to Settings>About to find this information.
Do you ever receive duplicate contacts from the synchronization? What version of Microsoft Outlook are you running as well?
I look forward to your reply.
Cheers.

I have two iCloud accounts .mac and .me. My contacts are duplicated 2 and 3 times. I only want one account.

Somehow, I ended up with two iCloud accounts. A .mac and a .me. I only need one but can not make the .me the primeray one (it tells me that the email is already in use). Anyways, I also have my contact records duplicated 2 and 3 times. I went to the Apple store in Beijing (I'm in China now) and they did not seem to know much about iCloud. They told me that I have to erase my contacts on the iPhone and iPad and then manually erase the duplicates. Is there another way to do it? How can I set up iCloud so that I only have one account?

You can't delete an iCloud account. You can, however, sign out of that account and just stop using it. Then sign in to your second account on all devices account.

How to auto-populate the Contact field from a Custom Object

Hi,
I am working on a project where the Contact record is the main focus. I have setup the Contact record as having a one-to-many relationship with CO4. From the Contact Details page I can click on the New button in the Related Record section for CO4 and the Contact from the Details page is auto-populated (which is what I want). I then enter the data into CO4 and click on Save so that the record is displayed in the Related Record section, and then I click into it so that I'm now on the CO4 Details page.
My page layout for CO4 has both Activities and Service Requests as related records, and the page layouts for both of these include the CO4 field and the Contact field. When I click on New for either of these record types, the CO4 field is populated from the previous record but the Contact is not. I realize this is because there is a one-to-many relationship between CO4 and the Activity/SR, but is there any way to also pull over the value in the Contact field?
I also tried this using CO1 which does have a many-to-many relationship (if I understand it correctly), but the Contact field is still not pulling over. Is there a way to make this happen?
Thanks!

This functionality is not available at this time. I would recommend that you submit a enhancement request to customer care.

Second day after updating to iOS 6 on my iPhone 4, my contacts have duplicated. Probably not all but many, and my contacts already numbered in the thousands.
Please tell me there is an easy fix to this problem!! I already had to go through contact-by-contact when I bought this phone and added contacts from my Blackberry and MS Outlook on the phone. Many duplicated at that time and Apple said the only fix was to go through each one and decide to keep or delete. I really don't want to do that again!

I had this problem while I had iOS 5.1.1 installed for many months. Fortunately I only have about 150 contacts and only about half of them duplicated. I found that my problem was the way thing were set up in Outlook. I removed all of the duplicates and corrected everything in Outlook contacts (ignoring the address book) and have not had the problem since, Hope this helps.

Primary contact and contact field in activity

Hi all,
I am trying to create few contacts under an account and set one contact as primary contact.
Then i am trying to craete an activity for that account.In that Activity there are two fields "Contact" and "Primary Contact".But when I try to pick up a contact and save the Activity record I see that the primary contact is not updated properly.(which means the primary contact is different from the one I selected in the account detail page).
I also found that if the contact's primary account is not the account to which i am adding the activity then the contact name is not coming in the drop down to select for an activity.(in the "contact" and "primary contact" look up field of activity)
Is there some reason for this??or am trying to overlook something..
kindly help..
Thanks in advance,
Ashan.

Hello Ashan,
I tried the same thing, creating 2 Contacts under Account then making one primary, then created the activity and select the contact under Contact Look up and it successfully updated the primary contact field.
There seems to be a problem with your pod, Have you tried raising an SR with oracle regarding this?

Accessing the Contact field on a Content Area Programmatically

I'm implementing some functionality to email the owner of a content area when a new document is submitted for
approval.
I have not trouble accessing and manipulating the content areas, folders, regions and items programmatically,
but when I get to the simple bit of looking up the contact for a content area to send the email I can't find the contact
property in any view, all of my WWSBR_% views MAILTO_DISPLAY_NAME values are '0'.
Does anyone have any idea how to access this Contact field (from Edit Folder -> Optional Properties tab) from PL/SQL
(or Java for that matter) either through a view, table or API call?
Regards,
Rob Paterson

Hi Robert,
Ur statement states that
"I have no trouble accessing and manipulating the content areas, folders, regions and items programmatically"
Can u throw some light on the same by possibly sending some codes to achieve the same.Our requirements are as under:-
1)When the content area is added with various privileges to a particular users page he needs to click on edit in order to add Item/folder or manage the same.Is it possible to show(either by customizing or programatically) the same links by doing away with the edit link and directly displaying the privileges(i.e. add item,folder properties) when he logs in.
2)As the situation stands now when a document is uploaded for approval only Portal30 can approve the same though the relevant privileges have been provided for various users.The icon for approval doesnt appear when the content area is added as a portlet.The only way of approval seems to be for portal30 to log in and navigate to the particular content area and click on the same.The items awaiting approval appear with a approve icon wherein he can approve the same.But the same fail to appear when published as a portlet.
Our project is under tight schedule so any help would be a gr8 help.
Thanks in advance.

Contacts - my contacts are duplicating on my Lucid Android - how to I clean up my contacts list? Must be on Verizon website but I can't locate it

I have a Lucid. My contacts are duplicating and I want to remove and clean up my contacts list. How do I do it? thx

I will be more than happy to help you clean up the contact list, tommybahama!
We first need to determine how the contacts are saved.
Did you save them to BackUp Assistant? If so, you can log in to http://bit.ly/OwsVcd to remove the duplicates.
If you have the contacts saved to Google, you should log in to your contacts via computer to delete any duplicates.

Sony Ericsson's limits in Contact fields

I just purchased a Sony Ericsson z610i and have synced my calendar and contacts. I found one big disappointment with my contacts, but perhaps I'm missing something. If I have a 2nd line in the "street address" field in my Apple Address Book, or if my street address is too long, it gets "cut" in the SE phone. Is that a limitation to the contact fields in SE? No 2nd line allowed? Only so many characters in the street address? Obviously, partial addresses are worthless.

Hi,
I have a SE z710i. I am having some issues as well.
I was wondering if you have problems syncing contacts which don't have a first or last name, but do have a company name.
Once I look through my phone on these contacts, I see "No name" as the listing.
Is there a way get the phone to display the company, in these cases?
Any help appreciated.

Pre populate the Primary contact field on Activity when created from an opp

Is there a way to auto populate the Primary contact field when a task is created from an opportunity with a primary contact? Can it be done thru a custom weblink? I think Bob B. may have had some weblink documentation?

There are a couple of options to solve this issue. One option would be to use a post-default to set the value. This option would allow you the ability to use logic to determine whether it is populated or not. The other option would be to use a custom weblink that populates the value, but I don't know that you would be able to use logic in the weblink option. I have docs on these options, so you can contact me via email and I send you what I have.
Good luck,
Thom

Contact field in outlook access

how to write code for adding contacts field in a GUI(graphical user interface) like outlook web access. Can anyone guide me...Thanks in advance

Hi Suresh,
The following is what I got from documentation of BAPI_CUSTOMER_CREATEFROMDATA1.
One person to be created as a customer:
With the entered personal data, addresses of type 1 (company address), type 2 (address for a person/private address of a contact person), and type 3 (contact partner address) are created simultaneously in Central Address Management (CAM).
If the "Allow Consumer Maintenance" indicator is set, then a consumer is created in SAP R/3. (See also: import parameter PI_CONSUMEREN ).
(a) No consumers to be created:
The entered personal data has a direct influence on the master data, company code data and <b>contact person data. One contact partner record is created for the customer in question.</b> All the master data, company code data, sales area data, tax code data, and reminder data that is not entered is adopted from a reference customer and from the sales area data (sales organization, distribution channel and division - import parameter PI_COPYREFERENCE).
I'm not sure what they are implying. But I think there is some way where the contact person is assigned.
What do you think?
Regards,
Eddie.

Webform Customer Contact field only adds email

Hi,
Our customers enter their information via a webform which automatically adds them to our CRM and creates a new case. Yay! Great and easy function.
Here's the thing though, the customer also enters their Cell Phone as a mandatory field in our webform, however the record is not entered into the customer contact field and only their email address is added.
Can anyone help?

Hey there,
At a guess you made a custom field for the cell phone number which will only go into the case. In the form builder you should select and use the cell phone number field, not a custom field. This will then go into the CRM entry.
If you feel you have done that you need to ensure you have not renamed the input field name paramater as it needs to he the same as what it spits out in the system so it knows where to store it.
If that is ok then it could be that you have changed the ID etc or changed the form to break the javascript of the form so people are leaving it blank and the script to run it is not working.

ActiveSync Outlook to iPhone contacts field mappings

With the iPhone 2.0 release, is the mapping of the contact fields between Outlook and iPhone when using over-the-air ActiveSync published anywhere?
It feels to me that the mappings are different for over-the-air ActiveSync versus in the old way of syncing via iTunes.
For example, I can not find any "Other Phone" field any longer on the iPhone. The iPhone 1.x releases had this field.

Here is what we have found through testing. The following lists the names displayed in Outlook 2007 and the corresponding name on the iPhone running 2.0.1. We did not find that any fields from Outoll overwrote any other field on the iPhone, even though the field might have a duplicate name, like "work" and "home". In the case of the Home and Home 2 numbers in Outlook, we ended up with two (2) "home" entries on the iPhone. If there is only a "-" under iPhone it is because it did not sync:
Outlook iPhone
========= =========
Assistant assistant
Business work
Business 2 work
Business Fax work fax
Call Back -
Car car
Company company main
Home home
Home 2 home

All of my contacts are duplicated in my address book

All of my contacts are duplicated in my addressbook on my phone...Did I set up the icloud incorrectly? Does anyone know if there is an undo somewhere in settings? Thanks

Ok, so I thought I had fixed this problem, guess not. I have updated my os to 10.7.2 and installed the ios5 on my ios devices. The ios devises and icloud are working great. My problems is with the address book and it has duplicated all my cards so I have twice as many contacts now. In addition, I have additional blank birthdays on my calendar. I use to have Mobile Me and I turned that off. I did try and turn off icloud and delete everything in my address book and then re-started icould address. It worked to eliminate the duplicated cards for about 5 minutes. Then came the blank birthday events on my calendar. Any ideas?
