Help! My deleted contacts keep re-appearing...

Hi,
My brother gave me his BB 8900. I've deleted his contacts every way I know how, and his contacts keep re-appearing on the phone.
1. I've deleted the contacts through the Desktop software
2. I've a clean list of my contacts on Gmail and Yahoo address book for syncing.
3. I've deleted my bro's contacts on the back-up folder contacts.
4. I've no entries in my SIM Phone Book.
5. I set the Address Book Wireless Synchronization field to No.
I get to the point where everything looks clean on handheld and phone ... and 30 minutes later the unconnected phone has somehow restored the (600) deleted contacts into the address book
Any idea what I'm missing? Thanks.

Interesting. A clean start could help because I don't know whats causing it. You've done some good troubleshooting so far.
I recommend wiping the device so you can setup from scratch. This guarantees nothing from your brothers settings remain.

Deleted BBM contacts keep re-appearing

Hi! I have 8520/5.0.0.1036 and I recently upgraded my bbm to ver 7.0.1.23. I am from the Philippines and for some strange reason my Display Picture does not update, and the contacts that I deleted keep on re-appearing. And contacts I moved from 'category A' to 'category B' moved back right before my eyes. Please help! Thanks a lot!

Deleted contacts keep re-appearing in my Contacts. Why??!!! Backup assist failure.

Every morning when I wake up, I have an alert on my Droid Razr M that says the backup assistant failed. So I delete some old contacts to make room so I don't have to pay for an upgrade. Same thing the next day. I look, and ALL the contacts I deleted have been re-populated to my phone! How do I get them to stay gone?

I want to ensure you have positive experience with Backup Assistant. Let's ensure your contacts back up at the time of removal. To backup current contacts head into Settings > Backup Assistant Plus > Backup Assistant plus Contacts > Sync Now.

Blocked users keep appearing in my contact list .....

I have blocked and deleted 2 users from my contact list , one of those keeps appearing in my contact list , no matter how many times I remove the name it keeps re-appearing ..

Can't something be done about this ?? \I imagine from other posts I have read this happens to others as well ,.. HELPPPPP me get rid of them once and for all .. I shouldn't have to create a new profile just because of this

I have the same problem. A complete stranger trid to contact me with an indecent picture, I immediately blocked him, embarrassed that picture is on my computer.

Anyone else experience the contact information for a blocked contact appearing at the top of the screen, when you open your email?

Has anyone else experienced contact information for a blocked contact, appearing at the top of your email screen when opening your email?

I'm seeing this as well, but not everytime only evry so often. No idea why.

Re: How do I delete blocked contacts appearing on ...

Urgent!!!! I hope this gets to Microsoft ASAP... My son who is a minor IS receiving these girlcam requests.... 2 of them so far and they are blocked and we deleted their chat history. They asked him for his credit card details of all things to verify his age. They say they are searching him on the members directory. They shouldn't be able to contact him at all if they are not on his contact list.
Please add age related restrictions to contact usage Microsoft and please fix the above issue of not being able to delete blocked contacts from the home screen. We cleared the chat history already.
Thanks.

Hi, Tazzajb, and welcome to the Community,
... and please fix the above issue of not being able to delete blocked contacts from the home screen.
This issue has been fixed; please ensure your son's Skype software is updated: Download Skype If your son is using v. 6.16, please post back to advise if he is still seeing the pictures or avatars of blocked contacts on his Skype Home window.
Thank you,
Elaine

Blocked Contact still sees when I come online.

I have been wondering about what happens when I block someone, (if it is like other sites where you simply disappear from them completely or what). So I created a second account to see and friended then blocked my main account from the second. I (on the main account) get notifications of the other account coming online and then going offline. Why is it doing that and what is the point if the blocked person can still stalk me (the reason I have someone blocked to start with, now I know they can still see me!!).
I'm on my Alienware X51 desktop, Windows 7 Home Premium, Skype version 7.0.0.102, cable connection to internet modem. I've checked as much as I know how to check, but I want to appear offline ALWAYS even if that other person keeps me on their list, it seems a bit flawed that a blocked contact is merely unable to tell you they're still watching you.
*Edit* I'd like to appear offline always to these BLOCKED people, not to everyone on my list, that is ridiculous and I might as well not have a skype account if the people I want to know I'm online can't tell.

I have read majority of the posts regarding "blocked contacts" and what the "blocked contact sees." And there appears to be so much confusion.
So, simple question, in year 2015, what Exactly does the blocked contact see once blocked?
Will they see me appearing ON or OFF line from now on?
And will I still be in their contacts list? (I've read the answer is, "yes, I will appear in their contacts list, but with a ? adjacent to my name).
I just blocked my first contact and would appreciate a complete and official answer. The confusion here is quite vast. Plus, several years have gone by since last post from Skype regarding this issue. You'd think there would be a simple paragraph in guidelines stating exactly what occurs when you block a contact, or when you have been blocked by a contact.
It's not that complicated, but apparently it is because there is no clear & thorough explanation.

Blocked contacts still able to contact me!!

I keep being contacted by people who appear as contacts in my contacts list even though I have never accepted them as a contact.
I block them and they appear in my blocked contacts list, then a few days later they appear back in my list of contacts.
All of my privacy settings are set so I am only visible to my contacts and I am not visible on the web.
How can I stop this happening? I thought if I blocked a contact that was it and they would not be able to contact me again.

I blocked contact should never be able to send you messages or call you again. Can you double check if it is the same username? It may be possible that they are using another account with the same display name.
moreover, you can report that user to [email protected]

Outlook contact groups not appearing in iTunes Sync

I was having trouble getting contact groups to appear in iTunes froma outlook. For awhile I got 1 group to appear and no others. I expermentally deleted that group and it remained while nothing else showed up. Apple support had no idea what to do and I stumbled upon a solution eventually. Since other people seem to have had a similar problem judging from the forums I thought I'd post my fix if nothing else is working for you.
When you create a new group in MSoutlook (by right clicking and selecting new folder) in order to keep your contacts orginized it makes that folder in a subfolder of whichever folder you clicked on. This doesn't display in MSoffice at all, all folders simply appear in a straight line with no way for you to tell where they are. The issue is that if you have these groups in any other directory besides Contacts they will not appear in iTunes. In my case everything was a subfolder under Suggested Contacts. In order to fix/check this simply click on your groups 1 at a time and select the "move folder" option, select Contacts, then hit OK. Rinse and repeat until all your folders are filed under contacts.
Once you've completed that open iTunes, go into the info tab of your device, and sync contacts with outlook. Just select sync all if nothing appears. After the sync all your groups should appear below for you to pick and choose which groups you'd like to upload. I hope this helps.
This fix was using Office 2010 on Windows 7 (64-bit) with iTunes 10.5.2.11

Hi,
I would like to create two folders - one for me and one for my wife. So under 'My Contacts' in Outlook 2010 it looks like this:
Suggested contacts
Contacts
Suggested contacts (email address)
Simon's contacts
Julie's contacts
iTunes has picked up these sub-folders - THANKS!
However, I would like to keep the 'Contacts' folder with all the contacts in and only copy selected contacts from there and place them into my wife's folder and mine. The 'copy' function does not seem to work.
Obviously my contacts are different to my wife's and she does not want hundreds of names on her contact list.
So, basically how do I copy contacts without moving them out of the contacts folder and manually typing them all back in my wife's folder (some contacts we both need)?
Hope you can help on this one.
Many thanks,
Simon

Blocked number keeps coming up in messages

I Blocked a contact several months ago. Since then the contact keeps showing up in my messages. It is as if they are sending me a blank message. Every time my phone is inactive for several hours when I start using my phone again, that contact shows up again in messages with a time stamp for that minute. (Eg. I go to bed at midnight, then I wake up at 7:42 open messages and the first message is a blank message from this blocked contact time stamped 7:42). Similarly, when I turn off my phone, when I turn it back on I get a blank message from that person timestamped for the time my phone is turned back on.
I don't think this is happening because the person is attempting to message me since it happena any time I turn my phone on.
Any idea why this is happening or how to stop this?
Thanks!

Blocked contacts

Hello,
Today ive encoutered a problem with some contacts in skype. When I logged in there was an open conversation of someone I havent talked to (or cared for) for years, only stating that I have blocked this person. I have not been able to block, unblock, invite or talk to this person.
I went to check the blocked contacts list and couldnt find this person in there, but noticed that (almost) all of my old messenger contacts are in this blocked list. However, they do not appear in my contact list at all. I am able to unblock them through the list of blocked contacts in the settings menu, but they will not show up in my contact list after I do so.
I honestly dont care too much about getting the contacts back (without doing it one by one) but I just wonder why the messenger names i havent seen in years suddenly show up in my blocked contacts list. (Ive recently looked at the list, and it only contained about 10 people, compared to the hundreds now) And ofcourse, the one messenger contact there was suddenly a recent conversation of, only stating that I had blocked this person at a random time I wasnt even online at.
Can anyone explain or fix this? Though Im not looking for a fix as it doesnt actually bother me, I am curious about how and why this happened.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
The integration of former Messenger contacts into Skype is not based on your Skype client, but largely happening "server sided" in our infrastructure. We recently changed that integration to more reliably surface also Messenger contact you had blocked earlier.

My iCloud notes won't sync to all my devices, an error to change preferences keeps on appearing although the notes sync box is ticked in iCloud preferences

Is anybody else having trouble with icloud notes syncing on the mac air to other devices? The preferences are all ticked to sync although an error message to change preferences in Icloud keeps on appearing when I open notes. I have attached a picture of the message I receive

After 2.5 hours on the phone with Apple last night, I have the solution, and it's incredibly simple: Change your iCloud password. Really...that will fix it. The tech said the password request could be all it needs.
You'll need to go here: https://appleid.apple.com to reset password.
Then you should back-up all you contacts, notes, calendars and documents locally. Then log out and back in to your iCloud account. Restart you computer and you should be back in business.
Sounds simple and stupid, but it fixed the problem for me.
Hope this helps!

Blocked Contacts showing as "top contacts"

I don't know why but blocked contacts are suddenly showing up in the Contacts pane under Skype Home. There is no way to remove them or delete them. I have the latest version of Skype installed.

It's unfortunate, but I am glad I am not the only one that this is happening to. The same thing is happening to me also and I don't understand why. I think it happened after I updated Skype the other day. Maybe the update has something to do with it? Did you recently update as well?
Anyways this annoys me and I hope someone will have an answer to this error that's occuring.

Yes I did. Then as soon as I restarted all these contacts appeared on my main age. Some of the a bit
near the knuckle too. I reckon my wife thinks I have an account with the local brothel. You just can't get rid of them.

Removed contacts keep reappearing on my Contact li...
