Duplicate address contacts.

Hello
I am a brand Blackberry user and I am going nuts already LOL I am entering contacts into my address book. The thing is, it is telling me I am trying to duplicate a contact. but, I can't find the contact that it is saying I am duplicating. what to do?
thanks in advance.
Steve

So you're going into New Contact and typing in a different name and you're getting that error message? Can you check 2 things:
In the Address Book, hit your menu button, choose Options. If you go into General Options is the "Allow Duplicate Names" set to Yes? If not change it to yes
In the Address Book, hit your menu button, choose Filter. Make sure none of the categories are checked. If some are checked, uncheck then and go back into the address book. See if you have a duplicate name.
If the above settings look correct try resetting the device by removing the battery for 30 seconds. After the device reboots try adding an address again.

How to create a duplicate address book contact?

This seems so simple yet I cannot determine how to create a new duplicate address book contact. I have a few contacts from the same company and want to change the variable data instead of re entering the data
I can create a new contact, copy the data of the record I want to duplicate yet when I paste the info into the new record - address book puts everything into one field.
Why not a duplicate contact command?
GRRRR

Rich,
According to Address Book Help:
To duplicate an address card:
Select an address card.
Choose Edit > Copy, and then choose Edit > Paste.
Works for me

Duplicate addresses for the same contact in Address Book.

For many of my contacts, there are duplicate addresses. When I delete one of the addresses, both of them disappear. Pretty funky. Anybody else see this type of thing?

Hi,
Pls go to, Enterprise mangaer --> Monitoring -> incident --> Search for the target and select as "show all" will give you alert details.

How to get rid of duplicate addresses all over the place?

Duplicate addresses appears all over the places: on my mac (in the mail program) and in my ios devices.
I suspect that it occurs during some synchronisation activities but how to get rid of this once and for all?
Thanks for your help. It helps also if some tell me that I am not alone in that kind of trouble

iCloud- Resolving duplicate Contacts after setting up iCloud Contacts

I have multiple duplicate of contacts in my iPhone. Currently stand at 6000 plus

I have multiple duplicate of contacts in my iPhone. Currently stand at 6000 plus & iPad has 24,000 plus contacts. Help.

Bummer.
Sounds like you've managed to create a sync loop. Look at what you're syncing them with. Make sure you're not syncing them to a cloud service that's also syncing to an address book that's syncing to another cloud service that's syncing to the phone... etc.

How do I add multiple addresses/contacts in an email tread to my contact list without having to enter each at a time?

How do I add multiple addresses/contacts in an email tread to my contact list without having to enter each at a time? I have AppleScript but don't see "add address" in any of the boxes/drop-downs.

Sorry, but Address Book does not allow you to select more than one email address to send to in a group. There's really no reason why people need multiple copies of a message, anyway; they have the option of forwarding email to another email address of theirs.

HT204150 will merging contacts from a macbook air with iCloud duplicate my contacts? There is no sync option given, only 'merge'!

will merging contacts from a macbook air with iCloud duplicate my contacts? There is no sync option given when I select contacts in my iCloud preferences screen, only 'merge'! Before I do it I'd like to know if I'll create a ton of duplicates. If yes, then how do you link contacts from your macbook with icloud? Thanks

If the same contacts exist in iCloud and on your MBA then there will clearly be duplicates. Export the contacts from the MBA, (On My Mac account) and then delete the content of the On My Mac account, then join iCloud on the MBA.

How can I avoid duplicates on contacts and how do I get contacts created on iPhone/ipad synchronized on my mac? so far it doesn't work correctly, just sometimes. same for icalendar

On your Mac, for duplicates, switching Contacts off then back on in System Preferences > iCloud may prevent duplicates.
On the iPhone / iPad tap Settings > iCloud. Make sure Contacts and Calendars are swtiched on.
Try restarting your Mac and your iOS devices when items won't sync as they should.
To restart an iOS device: Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button down until the red slider appears. Slide your finger across the slider to turn off iPhone. To turn iPhone back on, press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.

Check Duplicate Accounts/Contacts

Hi Forum,
We have EP as the user interface and will be creating Accounts and Contacts through EP.
1.How can I check the duplicate Accounts/Contacts being created.Is there any standard FM or BAdi available.
2.And also how can I delete the duplicate entries already created.
Please Guide.
Will reward helpful answers

Hi Shridhar,
1. Try COM_PARTNER_BADI method DUPLICATE_ADDR_ON_MAINTAIN.
2. I would guess you would need an ABAP to set the deletion flag on the BP. You could use the same logic as for the code for 1.

Duplicate addresses

Here's a weird one. Virtually all the records in my address book recently disappeared - this is a periodic problem with Address Book. The records return when Sync asks if I want to delete more than a thousand records on .Mac. I select cancel and the records miraculously reappear in the Address Book.
But this week, something different happened. When the addresses reappeared, over a thousand had been modified by duplication. Every work and home address is duplicated. What could have caused this bloating and how can I get rid of the duplicates? I took a backup of the database with duplicates from another of my Macs and just rebuilt the Address Book from that, yet it still contains the duplicate addresses. (Incidentally, it's only the addresses that have been duplicated in each record - not the names, phone numbers and emails.)
One possible cause is that I recently purchased a fourth Mac and when I asked to Sync it warned that there were two computers with my username. I chose a different name to deal with that. But on one of my original Macs Retrospect is now telling me that there are two "indistinguishable" hard drives with the same username. I can only see one but there could be some sort of ghost in my system.
And suggestions appreciated. Cheers.

Sync invited me to choose another name. I just entered a variant of my usual user name (firstnamelastname), putting my middle initial in. That was on the new Mac which is running OS 10.5.something. On the older Mac, running OS 10.4.11, I've also changed the account name although, of course, the shortname remains the same. Retrospect reports the problem of the disk with the same name on the old Mac, but not on the new one.
Another interesting thing: only Address Book entries with addresses have been updated. Address Book entries with just names and phone numbers or emails have not been updated (according to the light grey "Last updated" text in the bottom right of the window. It's as though just one or two fields in the underlying database have been duplicated (Home address and Work address).

Nexus 5548 - %ARP-3-DUP_SRCIP_PROBE: Duplicate address Detected

Hello.
Looking for some assistance on the following please, I'll try to include a lot of detail:
I noticed we're receiving repeating messages on a pair of Nexus 5548UP switches, regarding duplicate IP's, and the IP's in question are the mgmt0 of each respective Nexus switch; which are connected to each other and uplinked to two 3750X switches which are also linked to each other (not as a stack, with optics).
Here is a sample of the syslog message: %ARP-3-DUP_SRCIP_PROBE: arp [####] Duplicate address Detected. Probe packet received from zzzz.zzzz.zzzz on mgmt0 with destination set to our local ip, xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
And in ascii art, here is a diagram: SW1&2 are 3750X (running 15.x code) and NX1&2 are Nexus 5548UP (running 6.x code)
SW1---SW2
| |
NX1---NX2
Pretty basic box/"ring", just in case the diagram doesn't format well, with rapid spanning-tree in effect. The Nexus are Layer2 only, and the 3750X's are Layer 2 & 3 /w HSRP on a few SVI's in them. All vlans can pass over the connecting trunks. And on the Nexus, the management interface (mgmt0) is connected to 3750X (NX1 to SW1 and NX2 to SW2); e.g. management is done over this vrf interface, versus it flowing through a trunk interface to a SVI on the Nexus.
I know these messages to be erroneous as far an being actual duplicate IP's on the network, and have seen a few posts that indicate a command ("no ip arp gratuitous hsrp duplicate") typically referencing a Nexus 7000 setup has helped, but obviously as described that's not involved here. Note: Placing that command on the mgmt0 interface of the two nexus had no positive effect. The messages didn't start showing until after HSRP was enabled on the applicable 3750X SVI's - so seems a likely correlation.
Essentially looking to clear this up (ideally) or suppress the messages since they're false. Any ideas?
Thanks!

For those encountering this same issue, here is some information that may lead you to a resolve.
I decided to open a TAC case to get some direct assistance, and I was directed to the 3750X's and a new feature in the 15.x code, "ip device tracking". I was directed to remove that without specific details / steps on how to best do it (e.g. "no ip device tracking" does not remove it from the global config, as of 15.2(1)E anyway and is the most current at the time of this posting), and that didn't take, giving the message: % IP device tracking is disabled at the interface level by removing the relevant configs. However, after doing some research on the command, I can across some similar posts on 15.x code and duplicate IP messages.... Here's two posts I referenced:
https://supportforums.cisco.com/thread/2244042
https://supportforums.cisco.com/thread/2239656
I opted for the "no macro auto monitor" command in the 3750X's in global config, as mentioned in the above post(s) - This did stop the messages from occurring in the Nexus switches. IMPORTANT NOTE: I noticed that it did appear to bounce all the switch ports however, which could impact production - Be advised!
I cannot speak to if the interface level command 'nmsp attach suppress' is a better route to go, which is also referenced in the posts (first one primarily) - I went the other route to not have all the extra config line entries. I have asked Cisco what the true impact of the "no macro auto monitor" command is, and am waiting a response - Ideally there's little to none, probably depending on if you want to make use of device tracking or not... in my case, I suspect I don't have a need for this and thus there's no impact - I shall see.
It would be ideal if code is released to disable this service / feature in the future more gracefully and/or code changes are done to remedy this issue so you can have the feature enabled (or not). I akin this much like the "vstack" service that was introduced around 12.2(55/58)SE IOS that couldn't be disabled & left an open TCP port (not good for security scans), then with 12.2(58)SE2 they allowed it to be disabled (e.g. "no vstack" in global config).
Hopefully these details prove of value.
Regards.

IPv6 Duplicate Address issue

I'm having a problem involving IPv6 with stateless autoconfig on my network. I have a Cisco 800 series router and we have several VLAN interfaces each configured with an IPv6 prefix. The problem I'm noticing is that whenever any host on the network tries to start up with stateless autoconfig they immediately detect a duplicate address for whatever address they are trying to use.
I performed a packet capture and what I'm seeing is that when the host selects an IPv6 address to use, it performs the Neighbor Solicitation to check if the address is in use. I immediately see the exact same Neighbor Solicitation message echo'd back with the source MAC being the Cisco router. This causes the host to reject the address as a duplicate since it is receiving a Neigbor Soliciation for the same address it is attempting to use.
This happens on all of the VLANs I have configured for IPv6. The basic VLAN config is like this:
interface Vlan109
description Engineering VLAN
ip address .....
ip helper-address .....
ip nat inside
ip virtual-reassembly in
ip tcp adjust-mss 1300
ipv6 address HE-ENG ::/64 eui-64
ipv6 enable
ipv6 nd ra interval 60
Attached is a PCAP with some ICMPv6 traffic. You can see that the NS messages are duplicated and the source of the duplicates seems to be the Cisco router (70:ca:9b:e0:94:2e). Does anyone know what is going on here?

Hi,
Under you interface val config can you try adding:-
int vlan 109
ipv6 address autoconfig
Worth a try

HA NAT and %IP-4-DUPADDR: Duplicate address messages

Are the messages %IP-4-DUPADDR: Duplicate address expected with HA NAT?
With Stateful NAT they were seen if the "redundancy GROUP_NAME" was not added to the static NAT.
I am seeing them with a correctly configured HA NAT Box to Box set up and there does not seem to be anything missing that will stop the messages.
Is this a bug? Should the duplicate IP messages have been suppressed?

James,
We have implemented it in 3 customers, all of them got the same crash problem (just 10 customers in the world opened a ticket with TAC and just opened 3 of them).
It will happen a lot o times during the day. Be prepared. I didnt monitor the frequency but we needed to shut the secondary router down until Cisco do something to solve.
Unfortunately this is becoming very common with Cisco softwares. Not only with routers and switches, but with others solution too.

%IP-4-DUPADDR: Duplicate address

Hi, I've been getting the follwoing message on my c2600 (version 13.3) router since last december (according to the log file).
005179: .Dec 28 04:35:08.652 AUS: %IP-4-DUPADDR: Duplicate address xxx.xxx.xxx.xx on
FastEthernet0/0, sourced by 0015.f987.941a
The symptom of the problem is that occassionally the network looses connactivity.
The mac addresses are both for Cisco devices. One is the router and i'm not sure what the other is possibly a firewall.
The Cisco site says that we can change the mac address of one of the offending items ?
Which would be the best one to change?
How can i find out what the other device is?
What if any issue arise with changing the mac address ?
Proably other questions that i should be asking as well, but i'll get to those later.
thanks in advance for any reponses.

changing the mac-address will not help.
You have to change the ip address.
You first have to find out what/where is the other device.
For that you can follow the L2 path.
Go the switch to which the router is connected on fast0/0. If you don't know the switch, try 'sho cdp nei'.
Once on the switch, check the mac-address with the command 'show mac-address address x.x.x'. It should give the port.
Check what device is attached to this port.
If another switch, repeat the operation above until you find the end device.
Gilles.
