Duplicate contacts being sent!

I followed the instructions provided by a member here (I tried to click kudos but it didn't seem to work Here are the instructions....
- Synch the device with Outlook
2- Delete the duplicate entries in Outlook (is more easy than in the device)
3- Open Desktop Manager on your PC.
4- Open up Backup/Restore > Advanced.
5- From Advanced you'll see a split pane screen. The left pain is what is going to be backed up from your device and the right is a list of the currently existing databases.
6- Highlight on the right side your Address book database and click the arrow in the middle pointing to the left. This will copy the information over and prepare it for back-up.
7- Once the back-up has completed, hit the Clear button at the bottom to erase and clean out the entire Address book database.
8- After it's finished, it will ask you if you want to save the back-up you've created, say yes and check the device to make sure the address book has been properly cleared out. Now, resync the necessary contact information and you should be set to go.
However - after doing this, I got all my contacts. Then, I disconnected my device from my computer and went out. Well, I went to look up a number and it wasnt' there. An hour later it WAS there. Then, the bb seemed to be processing something and all of a sudden I'm getting duplicate entries all over the place. It's almost like it keeps syncing over and over. Please help!
Solved!

I also just noticed that the Google sync they put on my BB at the store was set to sync contacts automatically! I wonder if this is what did it. I unchecked the option! Let's hope.
That is very likely the exact problem.

Duplicate Entries being sent to EntryProcessors in 3.6.1

Duplicate entries are being sent to my EntryProcessor.
I am using the following code to invoke an EntryProcessor.
Filter accf = new EqualsFilter("getKey.getAccountName", "00160352");
gvaValRepo.getCache().invokeAll(accf, mergeProcessor);
The mergeprocessor doesnt do anything but to Log the entries it recv'd. Here is what I am receiving.
2010-08-27 11:58:38,933-dream-aggregatedgenevavaluation-serviceWorker:12 INFO GenevaMergeProcessor.class- Key=AggregationKey{accountName='00160352', currency='USD', legalEntity='MACRO'} DomainBaseKey{trackingId=73, businessDate=Fri Jul 23 00:00:00 EDT 2010}
2010-08-27 11:58:38,933-dream-aggregatedgenevavaluation-serviceWorker:17 INFO GenevaMergeProcessor.class- Key=AggregationKey{accountName='00160352', currency='USD', legalEntity='MACRO'} DomainBaseKey{trackingId=73, businessDate=Fri Jul 23 00:00:00 EDT 2010}
The above two are the same entries being sent twice to the EntryProcessor. Two points to note is that the serviceWorker has a different ID. Also, the duplicates have a direct corelation to the number of nodes, meaning if I have 3 nodes then the EntryProcessor will be called thrice with the same entry. I used QueryPlus to verify that the Cache has only a single instance of the above entry which verifies that the key is correct.

Hello,
Could you please post a reproducible test case that we could take a look at?

TS3276 On received mail, I delete sender's name, address, etc. then forward it. The forwarded mail has a duplicate of the original mail, show original sender's name, etc. How to prevent the duplicate from being sent?

How to prevent duplicate of orginal mail (with original sender's name, address) being "attached" when forwarded?

Maybe I am mis-understanding what you are seeing.
When I forward a message, the receiver will see the original mail (unless I edit it, such as removing any previous sender's information) and the length will be the same as the message was before forwarding except for the added line "Begin forwarded message" (again, unless I edit bits out), and there will be no attached copy of the original message.
So when you say in your reply above "The orginal email with the sender's name and address was also sent with my forwarded email." do you mean:
a) that it is still visible at the head of the text of the message (which I was saying does not happen for me because "after hitting delete, the previous sender's information disappears." [and since] "it has disappeared, it cannot be in your forwarded mail." Disappeared means it is not there.
b) another copy of the original message is attached to the forwarded email at the end, either as an included file or as repeated text.
c) some other situation.
Sorry about the previous mis-spellings! I hope that we can get to the bottom of this.

Duplicate emails being sent, how to stop?

Hello -
I am running Mac OS X Server 10.3.9. We have been using mail and the mailman mailing lists for some time. All of a sudden, a user posted a message to one of the mailman groups (with about 140 members) and many of them have received 10-20 copies of the message. (not every user has recieved multiple copies)
How can I track down what is stuck and get rid of it. I'm not sure where to find the message queues, or what steps to take.
Thanks for any help,
Eric

Cool -
Thanks for the help. I did the mailq option, looks like there are 7 things, I've pasted the output. Maybe you could tell me what it means, or If I have any messages pending. At this point, I'd just like to clear the slate and have nothing pending.
Thanks again for your help.
Eric

I am automating the process of sending appointment reminders to my clients. I started with an alert with an email in calendar using the clients email address as a custom entry in my me card in my contacts. this was resulting in three emails being sent with slightly different versions of the same address (see my previous post). Heating someone else's suggestion I created a workflow file to send an email and calling that file from an alert on my calendar. This is working and sends only one email to the client.
My calendar is on I cloud and I access it from three different computers so I can keep my appointment calendar current. The files that send the email only exist on one computer. My other computers show error messages when those emails get sent. It seems that each computer wants to send the email. It's a small problem but is there a way that I could not get those alerts.
But appreciate any thoughts about this. It seems like both problems might be related to the iCloud system.
Thank you in advance,
Michael

Good work, catch so far Michael, does seem to be a "feature" of iCloud syncing, not sure what you could do to disable it.

Google Contacts sync - Contacts created on phone not being sent to Google

Hello,
I have setup my contacts with my Google account, and I can see all my Google contacts on my Z3 compact. If I create a contact in Google contacts, I will see it on my Z3.
However, if I create a contact on my mobile phone, it isn't being sent to Google. For the life of me, I can't see any options or setting to send new phone contacts to Google, either manually or automatically.
Shouldn't a sync work both ways? On my last phone this "just worked".
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks,

Settings > accounts > google > are you syncing contacts?
do you have stamina mode on?
data or wifi on?

Since updating to OS5, my text messages are being sent as e-mails. Also, my contacts do not show the people's phone

Since updating my iPhone 4 to iOS5, it seems my texts are being sent as e-mails or in e-mail form. The person I am texting gets a phone number and not my name. Also, when I click on contacts to text to, where it used to show the phone number and I would touch the number to text, it just shows the persons name, no phone#.
Thanks for any help!

My new contacts are not being sent to iCloud

Okay, I really need help. All of my new contacts that I add onto my Iphone 4 (iOS 7.0.2) are not being sent to iCloud at all. All of my other contacts are their and if I edit them on my phone they show up editted on all my other devices (2009 purchased macbook pro and 2013 purchased macbook pro). But if I add a new contact it wont show up on any other device! Someone please if you have any help please lend a hand!

Check Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Account (in the Contacts section) to be sure you have selected iCloud as your default. Otherwise the contacts you are adding on your phone are not being added to iCloud.

HOW DO I CONTACT FIREFOX ADMIN IN AUSTRALIA OR NEW ZEALAND

Hi. Thank you.
Motzilla is garbage.. Everytime I open a site, it immediately opens another window in the background or foreground with advertising "spam(?)" such
as coles, et cetera, that slows down my computer.
And no, I don't have my computer infected by myself.
It also puts small advertising windows for games and dating sites, et cetera, on the desktop in front of the web page that I've opened and blocking the content on the page.
Stop sending me all this crap in advertising dialog boxes for winning cash and other shit. I'm sick of it.
And will not go away and has no option to delete it off the screen, only to open them.
After signing in to your forum site, because there is no way to contact admin. because they hide behind their computer, there is
meant to be a confirmation email sent and nothing arrives.
This site was good ages ago and now it really is garbage and people want to come to auckland to sort it out.
If it was Monday, I would ring you guys up and tell my views on firefox........
Thank you.

Some texts being sent as SMS instead of iMessage

Some of my texts are being sent as SMS (green) instead of iMessages (blue) even though I know these people have iPhones. It's only certain people it happens to as I have other friends who have iPhones and messages are being sent as iMessages like they should be. Is there any way to fix this?
Thanks!

Hello kaeilli
Thanks for the question. Since the issue is isolated to a few contacts, have you confirmed that these contacts are indeed using iMessage (is it enabled on their iPhone?). If so, see this article:
iOS: Troubleshooting Messages
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2755
If you still can't send or receive iMessages
1. Ensure that iMessage is turned on in Settings > Messages.
2. To send and receive iMessages, your device must have a valid cellular or Wi-Fi data connection.
- iPhone: Troubleshooting Cellular data
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
3. iMessage registration validates your Apple ID for use with iMessage. If you are unable to activate iMessage, follow this article.
4; If an iMessage cannot be sent, it will be resent using SMS or MMS, depending on the content. You can turn this behavior on or off in Settings > Messages > Send As SMS. Carrier messaging rates may apply.
5. Verify that the Apple ID or phone number is listed in Settings > Messages > Send & Receive.
Thanks,
Matt M.

Your Emitac Mobile Solutions LLC email service is deactivated, Email messages are no longer being sent to your Blackberry device

Hi
I just got this message yesterday: Your Emitac Mobile Solutions LLC email service is deactivated, Email messages are no longer being sent to your Blackberry device.
And since then, i havent being able to set up more than one email and i subscribed for 4.
I have rebooted\,, sent service books and hard set the phone so many times.
What should i do?
Thank you

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
From your post, I cannot quite tell if you did all of this, in exactly this way. Hence, with a strong carrier network signal (e.g., not merely WiFi), I suggest the following steps, in order, even if they seem redundant to what you have already tried (steps 1 and 2 each should result in a message coming to your BB...please wait for that before proceeding to the next step):
1) Register HRT
KB00510 How to register a BlackBerry smartphone with the wireless network
Please wait for one "registration" message to arrive to your Messages app
2) Delete and Resend Service Books
KB05000Delete the service book for the BlackBerry Internet Service email account from the BlackBerry smartphone
If you have no CMIME entry, then skip the deletion
KB02830 Send the service books for the BlackBerry Internet Service
Please wait for "Activation" Messages, one per already configured email account, to arrive in your Messages. If you have no already configured email accounts, please wait 1 hour.
3) Reboot
With power ON, remove the back cover and pull out the battery. Wait about a minute then replace the battery and cover. Power up and wait patiently through the long reboot -- ~5 minutes.
See if things have returned to good operation. Like all computing devices, BB's suffer from memory leaks and such...with a hard reboot being the best cure.
Hopefully that will get things going again for you! If not, then you should try deleting and re-adding your configurations for the affected email accounts. Otherwise, you should contact your mobile service provider for formal support.
Good luck!

The email where security questions are being sent is invalid. How do I change it.

You cannot change your Rescue email address after you have forgotten your Security Questions. Once you get everything reset, you will be able to change it. For now, you are going to have to contact Apple Support to get them reset:
