DM 6.0 Sync - overwrite, not update contacts

When DM 6.0 sync the contact, it overwrites the ones on the phone. When it does so, the assigned ringtone will be lost. I have to reassign the tones again each time after sync. Does anyone know if DM 6.0 can be configured to update not overwrite the existing contacts on the phone? Thx.

Hi bobhlee,
Welcome to BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
Can you verify that your sync is set to two way in the Desktop Manager? http://bit.ly/aHHqkL Does this affect only the ringtones assigned to contacts or are any device contacts that are not on your PC removed during sync?

    There may be several that were bought with your Apple ID. but somewhere in the updates there must be one associated with that other ID.
    You can update one by one, until you find the one that requires the other Apple ID.

  • PC Suite: "Could not update contacts" - "Kunne ikk...

    I got my new Nokia 6220 Classic yesterday and went immediately start to manage my contacts. I have pictures on about 70 to 202 contacts.
    When I had to add a picture to a contact, PC Suite posted an error "Could not update contacts" Since my phone was set to via Bluetooth I tried with the USB cable without success. I rebooted phone and PC but it was the same.
    I uninstall PC Suite and tried again but the USB cable and Bluetooth, without success. Today, I am at my job where I use the USB interface. Exact same error. I tried to update the firmware on the phone, but with the same, because there is not a newer version. But I get the same problem. The calendar works as it should, but messages do not work, here comes the message "The message could not be sent." - I can (From job, not at home) see the messages which have come, but can't answer or create new messages ..
    Now I run a PC Suite Cleaner and reinstalled PC Suite. Same problem.
    What should I try and what can be wrong?
    I am happy using PC Suite and I use it very much! I want it to work .. )
    Please.. ;o)

    Hmm... I think I have solved this..
    I started by taking a Backup this morning.
    Now I finally desided to delete all and start over. I made another Back up, Restored the Back up from erliere.  Then set contact memory to SIM and back to Phone...
    And now it works?!?!?!!?
    Only a few photoes to some contacts has to be redone, and som contacts appear more then once.. But My Suite works!
    Suuiiittee!! (Sweeet!)
    I really hope some one elles but me figures this out..

  • PC Sync could not update the data to the mobile ph...

    Ok now I am a little annoyed with my Nokia 6680.
    For the last four months it has been working fine but all of a sudden it has stopped synching with either of my PC's.
    The phone connects ok and I can do file transfers etc however when I try to sync it fails with the message
    "The Synchronisation has been Terminated!"
    and
    "PC Sync could not update the data to the mobile phone."
    I updated PC Sync to latest version on both PC's and I have tried cable and bluetooth connections but get the same issue.
    In the end I bit the bullet and re-initialised the phone and it began working again.... for three days and then its doing the same thing again. It still connects ok but no sync.
    My Laptop is using WinXP SP2 and my home PC is on WinXP SP1.
    Anyone able to help with this please, my phone is effectively now a paper weight and I will go back to Pocket PC phones again.

    Thanks for the tip I had the SAME problem on the 6822 same error. The phone had been fine for a month or so. Then nothing would synch, thought it was the PC fixed / reinstalled the software changes options nothing would work same error.
    Read your note, powered down the phone and Bingo all synched fine!
    Thanks very much. I'm using a Nokia 6822

  • Firefox Sync does not update automatically when I add a new bookmark.

    I use one desktop and one notebook at the same time. Firefox Sync does not update bookmarks between my desktop and notebook when I add a new bookmark from one device or the other. Firefox Sync only updates when I manually sync my data from each device. When I used Google Chrome, the Sync feature updated my bookmarks almost instantly. Is there any way I can make Firefox automatically sync whenever I update my bookmark?

    Your imported bookmarks from IE should all be in one folder named "From Internet Explorer". The imported Bookmarks are kept separate for easier identification by the user. You can move them to other folders outside of that folder if you wish; you can also delete any duplicates that you may have placed into Firefox Bookmarks/folders before the import.

  • Just upgraded and now can not update contacts

    I upgraded to the new iPhone software last night and now can not edit contacts.  Help!

    Hi icsailor,
    This sounds like a known issue reported here:
    https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=713014
    There was a workaround posted, but I've not tested it myself. Here are the steps.
    # Go into Yahoo Messenger Options - Change the Window in the dropdown to Tab and press OK.
    # Then go back and switch it to small window and press OK.
    Once the bug is officially resolved, you could try running a Nightly or Aurora build to use the fix early.
    Hopefully this helps!

  • Sync does not update Touch Contacts from desktop Address Book

    I add names to the desktop computer's Address Book. When I sync the Touch, the new entries do not appear in Contacts. One entry is for "Dave". So I created an entry on the Touch named "Dave" and then synced, to see if it would acquire the data for Dave from the Address Book. Instead it created a new entry in Address Book for "Dave". So there are now two cards for Dave on the computer but the Touch still doesn't know his phone number.
    What's going on?

  • PC Suite not updating contact properly

    Hi,
    My system:
    Windows Vista (SP1), Nokia PC Suite 6.86.9.0, Nokia 6120, Bluetooth.
    Problems:
    see attached (I delete some phone number for confidentiality). I entered Julia Chin contact wrongly few days ago but managed to rectify it 2 days ago (5705 changed to 5707 on last digit), I've also run the Sync program to ensure both PC suite and mobile are updated. Today, when I tried to send the SMS message using PC suite, I use the button to list the contact and select Julia but it was still reflecting the old number (5705). Pls check!!!
    NOTE: The attached file is actually a .jpg but it is not allowed to attach, so I rename it to .log. You have to rename it back to jpg to view it.

    Before starting the installation process use the Nokia Cleaner:
    http://www.nokia.co.uk/A4630261
    Once that has finished Press CTRL + ALT + DEL (this opens task manager)
    Click on the processes TAB and you should be able to see what processes are starting, this may help.
    Start the PC Suite Install process (if using Vista make sure you "Run as Administrator").
    Good luck.

  • Ios 7/itunes 11.1.11 not updating contacts on 4s iphone

    since i have updated my iphone 4s to ios 7.0.2 and itunes to 11.1.11, my contacts on my iphone are not being updated from my imac snow leopard 10.6.8 address book. 
    is there something i don't know?  is this a known issue?
    thanks,

    Hello Green Jean,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like you are having trouble syncing your contacts information as expected with iTunes.
    I recommend we start with troubleshooting the SyncServices folder with this article:
    Mac OS X: Resetting the SyncServices folder
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1627
    OS X Lion and Mac OS X v10.6 Snow Leopard
    If you see the Sync menu in the menu bar, skip to step 3:
    If you do not see the Sync menu in your menu bar, skip to step 7.
    Hold the Option key on your keyboard, then click the Sync menu in the menu bar:   
    if you see the Sync menu but you are unable to open it, skip to step 8.
    Choose Reset Sync Services.
    Click Reset Sync History.
    Test for the original issue. If the issue persists, or if you are unable to open the Sync menu, follow these steps:
    In the Finder, choose Utilities from the Go menu.
    Open Terminal.
    In the Terminal window, type or paste the following command on a single line:
    /System/Library/Frameworks/SyncServices.framework/Versions/A/Resources/resetsync .pl full
    Press Return.
    Quit Terminal after the operation has completed (when Terminal returns to the command prompt with a $).
    If the issue persists after that, I would next use this article to help resolve it:

    All the best,

  • ContactList_UpdateInsert will not update Contact Record

    I'm having trouble getting ContactList_UpdateInsert to work with Contact Records that have a username.
    1) First, I call Contact_RetrieveByEntityID('adminuser', 'password' , 1234, entity_id) to retrieve the contact record data for updating.
    cr = c.service.Contact_RetrieveByEntityID('adminuser', 'password' , 1234, entity_id)
    2) Then I modify some data, such as ExternalID
    cr.externalId = '123456'
    3) Calling ContactList_UpdateInsert returns an error:
    'Contact(s) saved in the system. Please review the list of error(s)/warning(s) found when processing the data.\n- Contact: John Doe | ERROR: The username [TestUser] cannot be assigned to contact with email [] as it is already used.'
    Manually adding the emailAddress field because it's not in the original cr record fixes that error.
    cr.emailAddress = '[email protected]'
    Calling again gives the error:
    Contact(s) saved in the system. Please review the list of error(s)/warning(s) found when processing the data.\n- Contact: John Doe | ERROR: The username [TestUser] cannot be assigned to contact with email [[email protected]] as it is already used.'
    It seems as though any time the contact record has a username assigned, I'm unable to update the record. What's the deal??
    EDIT: I thought I was posting this in the API section, but apparently not. Sorry.

    Okay I figured this out. When updating, you either have to supply externalId or emailAddress to match the record you want to change. If neither is supplied, or it doesn't match the supplied value, it adds a new record instead of update. So if you're trying to add an external id, you have to supply the emailAddress parameter as well, so it can match the record you want to change. I don't know if you can change the external id since it will try to match the external id before the email address.
    This is the explanation from the knowledgebase
    Please note that similarly to the import routine, you can utilize the External ID property to set a unique idenitifier value for each customer. If this value is present then customers are matched and updated accordingly. For example if every customer in your system has a member number, then assign that to the External ID property. If you do not utilize this property then the unique identifier used will be a customer's email address. If neither is provided then contacts are added and never updated as no unique identifier exists.
    I assumed that if you retrieve the record you want first (using Contact_RetrieveByEmailAddress), then make your changes and send it to ContactList_UpdateInsert, it should just update that record. But you have to set the emailAddress parameter.

  • Issue ELM is sometimes not updating contacts it creates new ones

    Hello experts,
    we have the following problem. We have a list in ELM which contains ORG ID and contact ID. In additional it contains Name first; last name; E_mail adress and a set of marketing attributes.  When I run the list with 651 eintries ELM creates in some cases new contacts instead of updating the existing one. All other contacts are updated properly.
    When I then go to Tx BUPA_DEL delete the new ones and again run ELM with only the new created contacts inside the list ELM is updating the existing contacts and is not creating new ones. So it is shure that not the data contains any errors.
    Any ideas why ELM is doing so?
    BR
    Roger

    Hello Naresh,
    thank you very much for the reply. I´m sorry but it not solves my problem. I have 651 Contact Persons and BP ID´s in the list. Very often for the same Account and everything works perfect. Only a very few times ELM is creating a new Contact instead of updating the existing one. in the case of the list with the 651 Contacts exactly two times.
    Any ideas? Thanks again fopr you help

  • Since upgrading to iOS 7 iPhone 4S and iPad 2 gen do not update contacts. iMac iOS 10.9.2 Why?

    Is there a problem with iOS 7.1?  Since upgrading my iPhone and iPad I can no longer update new contacts from my iMAC iOS 10.9.2.  Also when I have voice mail the tab for voice mail give no indication that it is there.  Is this a problem with iOS 7.1?

    Also forgot to mention about the syncing with iTunes. Each morning, I have to literally turn off and then turn back on the 4S iPhone and the iPad 2 to get them to be seen by iTunes and sync. Yes, I am using the updated 11.4 iTunes on my iMac.

  • Vendor Sync Job not updating all vendors from ECC to SRM

    The vendors are updated from ECC to SRM by batch job
    Z_SUP_BAT_VENDORSYNC (object BBP_VENDOR_SYNC).
    This job is missing updation of some vendors from ECC to SRM.
    Its happening on and of.We are updating these leftout vendors manually by TCODE BBPUPDVD and new left out vendors by BBPGETVD.
    We have concluded that information in these vendors is replicated from
    ECC to SRM GUI but it is not reflecting in SRM portal.
    Reasons looks like when vendor data(Incoterms/Payment terms) is replicated from ECC to SRM an
    addition row is created in vendor data in SRM which does have this information(Tcode ;BBPMAININT).
    Though the information is present in second row in vendor data tab of vendor information when executed using TCODE BBPMAININT but Vendor information in portal is picked from 1st row and does not appear when try to shop.
    Can anyone suggest how to resolve this?

    Hi Harleen,
    The problem is because of the inconsistency in the tables BBPM_BUT_FRG0060 and BBPM_BUT_FRG0061.
    From table BUT000 take the partner guid for the problematic vendor.
    Enter the partner guid as input to the table BBPM_BUT_FRG0060  . check the number of available rows.
    Now check the table BBPM_BUT_FRG0061 with the partner guid. check the number of rows.
    You must see the inconsistent number of records in these 2 tables for the partner, like 1 row in BBPM_BUT_FRG0060  and 2 rows in BBPM_BUT_FRG0061.
    Delete the invalid row in the table BBPM_BUT_FRG0061. That should resolve the problem you are facing.

  • LDAP sync is not updating any changes/deletion ?

    In our environment we have OIM 11.1.1.3 and we have enabled LDAP sync with OID. Any user created on OIM is getting synced to OID. The problem is when we are making any changes to the attributes of the users or deleting a user the change are not getting reflected back to OID. If someone can help or give proper pointers or guidance so that we can have a fully functional sync ?

    When you delete a user, they only get disabled.  There is a task called "Delayed Delete User" which will delete based on the value in the system configuration value "Period to Delay User Delete".  Try configuring this to 0 and then running the scheduled task to see if it deletes.
    For the attributes not being propagated, check the /db/LDAPUser file to see if the mappings exist for the attributes you are modifying.  In R1, there is the script which i have mentioned in this post, https://forums.oracle.com/message/10354064, for adding and removing mappings.
