N73 - Contact Groups get deleted on sync

Hi,
Has anyone else had this problem? I have a Nokia N73 and sometimes when I sync it to Outlook via Bluetooth, the Contact Group that I have set up on the phone gets deleted (I only have 1 contact group). I've now downloaded the latest version of the Nokia PC Suite, 6.82, but how do I know this problem is not going to happen again? I have to create the group all over again, and reassign the members. Most annoying...
Any thoughts on this? Other than that, the N73 is a great phone, really love it.
PC: Windows XP SP2, MS Outlook 2003
Connection: Bluetooth
Nokia PC Suite: ver 6.81
Phone: Nokia N73- v2.0628.0.0.1, 10-07-2006, RM-133, Nokia N73 (54.02)
Thanks
Tushar

I am th only person to come accross this problem???

So, you do not see any fonts bold that shouldn't be bold?
What are your current default font settings?
If you have increased the minimum font size then try the default setting "none" as a (too) high value can cause issues.
*Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced > Minimum Font Size (none)
Make sure that you allow websites to choose their fonts.
*Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced > [X] "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of my selections above"
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Changing+fonts+and+colors
It is better not to increase the minimum font size in case you need a larger font, but use an extension to set the default page zoom to prevent issues with overlapping text.

Artwork gets deleted when Syncing podcasts

I've had this issue forever and dammit it must be fixed. I download a podcast directly from the Touch. When I sync with iTunes the podcast artwork ALWAYS gets deleted. When I disconnect the touch and play my podcasts, there is no artwork at all, just the bowling pin/armless person thing with circles around it that is there by default. ***? This is a piddly thing but losing the artwork *****.

I assume you mean tothe Touch over the Wi-Fi.
If you don't find a fix for this, an alternative solution is to download Podcasts to iTunes from the iTunes Store and then Sync them to your Touch. I suggest this because there have been small issues with apps not working when downloaded directly to the Touch and this sounds as though it could be a similar problem.

Deleted contact groups still in iPod sync pane?

This issue recently showed up..
When I sync my iPod Touch with iTunes, in the sync pane (the place where you choose what you want to sync), in the contacts section there is a group "Family", even though it isn't in my Address Book - I deleted it. There isn't any way to get rid of it. So when I sync, an empty group shows up on my iPod.
Does anyone else have this problem??

How to keep videos on iPod so they don't get deleted during sync?

Hi,
I have about 40GB of videos that I bought from iTunes. I bought them on my Mac Mini and used up most of my memory on it. So I deleted some of these videos from my computer and put them on backup DVD's to clear up some space on my computer.
When I sync my iPod when I get new videos, I get a message saying that some of the videos on my iPod are not on my computer and if I would like to transfer them back on. I click no, because they would not all fit.
So then it transfers all the videos present on my computers and replaces the ones I had before, since they are no longer on it. All the time I sync my iPod completely, I have to put those replaced videos (fortunately saved on DVD's) them back on manually.
It's really annoying... Is there a way to tell my iPod not to touch certain videos and leave them on my iPod? So that they don't get replaced all the time?
Or does anyone have any suggestions?
Please help me!!! Thanks

First suggestion is to go out and get an external hard drive to give you a place to store ALL your stuff in one place. Hard drives are cheap. Last night I was at Costco and they had a Triple Interface (eSATA, USB2, and Firewire 400) Seagate 750GB drive (w/5-yr warranty) for $200. Online I see 500GB drives for $130 and under. And you can get as high as 360GB for under $100 these days. So get one!
Anyway, one thing you can do is to switch your iPod from auto update to MANUAL update. Now iTunes will not remove anything. However it also won't do anything else either. You have to drag and drop stuff from the library into your iPod to add them and select them on the iPod and hit Delete to remove them. Also playcounts, ratings, etc. do not sync back to iTunes in manual mode.
My suggestion is short term switch to manual sync, then order or pick up locally an external drive. Then get all your stuff back onto your library when you have the bigger disk. Once put together again, change the iPod back to auto sync.

Events in ical on my macbook get deleted when I sync w/my iphone5.

Been having problems getting ical events to merge between iphone5 and macbook. After some suggestions from the community, I discovered I have no icloud in ical system preferences, and events scheduled in ical on macbook gets deleted when syncing to my iphone5. Getting frustrated.

You probably have your iPhone set up to clear out old events. My guess is that the events that are being deleted have already occurred.
Check Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Sync, and make sure the events you want to keep are preserved.

Feature Requests for BlackBerry10 OS: Sync Google contact grops to BB Contact groups

Hi,
I am using my Z10 and as well a Q10 for already one year now.
What I am still missing dramatically is the opportunity that my google contact groups get also synced into groups in the BB device.
I am using several groups to inform different teams with emails or SMS. All of them are organized in groups on google - unfortunately BB10 is still not able to sync these groups - and I am talking about 390 contacts :-/
Is there any plan to integrate this feature?

I don't know if there is any coming funciton for that.
You can create those Address Book Groups in your device Contacts app.

The contacts i am feeding are getting deleted

when i am creating new contacts in the phone those contacts are getting deleted after 10-15 minutes.
it happened 5-6 times that i saved a phone number from the last calls list, the name feeded appears but when i search for the same their is no such contact and when i go to last call list their is only the number which is being displayed not the name.

Are contacts stored solely on the device? Synced with a cloud service like Google or iCloud? Synced with an Exchange server?

Contact groups on the E61i Contact is unassigned when isync is run.

So it seems that whenever you update a contact in Address Book that's in a contact group when it's synced back to the phone it will no longer appear in that group.
Anybody else noticed this?

Just to give an update, I did get the problem fixed
In the computer I exported address book
when in to home>Library>App Support>Address book>deleted all in there.
then home>Library>preference>deleted all in there related to Address book.
The first time I did this I had exported all of the groups also, then after doing the above
reimported everything including the groups, and ended up with double groups, but they only showed when I connectedthe iphone to iTunes in the information area.
Looking in Address Book on the computer there was just one group not two of each.
So redid the above and did not reimport any of the groups,
just rebuilt them, connected iphone and itunes all turned out well

Contacts created on iPhone not syncing

I've noticed that if I create a contact on my iPhone, that content doesn't sync to the other address books. So everything looks fine on my phone: I can see their name in Messages, for instance.
But when I move to my desktop Mac, I can see only the phone number in Messages, the contact doesn't appear in Contacts, etc. If I go the other way and create on my computer, it's properly synced to the other devices.
I have multiple mail/contact profiles/accounts (several Gmail accounts, my work account, etc.) on my phone. It's almost like the contacts are getting "assigned" to my work account rather than my main Apple ID account, so they are fine on the phone, but aren't part of the Apple ID sync.. so to spe

You need to move the contacts to the correct contact group for them to sync. The factory Contacts app does not provide a way to do this; you need a 3rd party app such as Speed Names, which lets you assign contacts to a group and to move contacts between groups.
You can go to Settings/Mail,Contacts,Calendars and scroll down to Contacts. Make sure the default account is iCloud so new contacts will go to a group that syncs.

Why are my messages getting deleted?

My older text messages from one contact keep getting deleted. How do I stop this and why is it happening?
I know for a fact there are many messages before where the conversation appears to begin on my phone.

Why can't I display members of a contact group on my iPhone with IOS 6

Just discovered that I cannot display members of a group on my iPhone 4s running IOS 6.
When I tap on a group, I just get a check mark or erase the check mark by the group. The group will not expand to display the members of that group.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
JUST FOUND THE ANSWER!
You have to de-select the All Contacts group (get rid of the check mark), select the group you want to display (check mark shows), then tap done and the group selected will display.
Not the most intuitive procedure, but it works?

This works. Simple but like you say not intuitive. Where is the manual on this.

Syncing to selected contact group wants to delete files outside of it

Hello -
I am trying to sync my iPhone contacts to my address book in a specific way. In my address book, I have my personal contacts - friends and family. I also have mailing list subscribers (which gets into the 1,000s - people with whom I am not personally connected). I copied all of my personal contacts into a separate group and selected that group under the iPhone sync options in iTunes. I also checked the box marked "add contacts created outside of groups in this iPhone to" and again chose the special "personal contacts only" group.
However, when I go to actually sync, I get a pop-up box saying that so many contacts will be added (to my laptop), so many contacts will be modified, and so many contacts will be deleted. Which ones are getting deleted? All the ones that are not on my phone, so basically all of my mailing list, non-personal contacts.
Isn't the point of syncing specific contact groups so that you can have your phone dialogue with that particular folder and nothing else - leaving anything outside of that folder alone?
Just to test it out though, I changed the sync setting to "all contacts" to see what would happen, and I get the same message (it's basically going to delete anything that's on my laptop, but not currently on my phone). Why does this happen? Isn't the whole idea of synchronization that the two devices end up having the same file lists? How can I get the iPhone to populate any contacts I added on it to a specific group on my laptop, and vice versa. Seems like they should populate each others lists with missing pieces, rather than one taking the other one over and deleting, well, anything (unless I tell it to).
And no, I do not have any of the advanced overwrite functions enabled.
Does anybody have a solution to this problem? I'd like to sync my contacts, but obviously don't need 2,000 names of people I don't personally know taking up space on my phone.
Thanks for any advice you all can provide!

I think MobileMe is all or nothing--I asked a chat agent a few months back, and that was the case, haven't seen any reports or UI changes.
Send them feedback--it would be great to select Groups and Calendars.

Contact sync seems corrupted. How to recover? iCloud, laptop, iphone work fine. iPad shows some entries in duplicate or near duplicate, and when you delete one, both get deleted. iMac no longer syncs at all though set to sync.

iPad seems buggy, iMac simply not connected to syncing contacts (and focusing on it, not on Safari bookmarks either)
iPad example:
Two entries exist for a contact on iPad, identical or differing slightly (e.g. a space being added before a word or identical in one but not the other). I delete one of the entries and both entries disappear from ipad, iphone, icloud. Entry persists on iMac.
iMac:
iCal syncs. Mail syncs. Calendar doesn't. Bookmarks aren't syncing either: A recent add to Safari bookmarks that has synced elsewhere has not synced on iMac.
On the iMac, when I go to iCloud in network settings all boxes are checked except Photo Stream, Back to My Mac, and Find My Mac. Account details show my email address, my name and Description "iCloud". The amount of GB available in iCloud storage, which matches what I see on my iPhone.
iMac: OSX 10.8.5, 2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo

Thanks for the suggestion, Barney-15E. FYI I am not running both iCal and Calendar. Just Calendar. Me bad for using the old name and new name interchangeably.
Tackling the iMac problem: In iCloud network preferences, I unchecked Safari then soon after rechecked it, and your suggestion appears to have worked: a bookmark recently added on one of the other devices appeared in the iMac Safari bookmarks. So far so good.
Did the same thing with contacts. The iMac took a couple of hours to restore the sync setting, but it finally completed the task. The computer was laboring so I rebooted. Then I opened the contacts application and saw the spinning grey bars next to the "iCloud" heading above my list of contact groups. Some time later the spinning lines were replaced by an exclamation point. I clicked on it and got the message that the operation could not be completed because of a "CoreDAVErrorDomain error 1..". Subsequently, after much spinning of the line wheel, I have gotten either the exclamation point with the CoreDAV message or a lightning bolt icon. Whether exclamation point or lightning bolt, clicking on it provokes a long period of the spinning line wheel. And looking at some telltale contact discrepancies between the iMac and the other machines, nothing seems to have changed in terms of merging the discrepancies.
Searching for the error message in the support community, I see this has happened to others, and they have had some success in following a list of steps starting with archiving the contacts, which I have done. Don't think I fully follow the other steps, nor am I sure they apply to my situation.

My contacts on my old Iphone I gave a family member were deleted then synced to icloud. My current iphone lost all its contacts when it next synced. I retreived a 6mth old backup to get my contacts, but I want my recent messages back, any help?

The "system" performed as designed. All devices syncing to one iCloud account are kept in common sync. The idea is that all such devices belong to one user. Different users should have different iCloud accounts. Once your contacts were edited, all devices were updated as well and subsequent backups (from yours and her device) reflected the changed contacts (and any other data that may have been edited like calendars). Your first task is to change your daughter over to a new account before she makes other changes.
The only way I see for getting back contacts is to restore them from a time machine backup, assuming you also have a Mac included in the account which syncs the contacts. However, I'm not sure whether time machine includes contacts from iCloud along with those that are local, "on my Mac".
Otherwise the deleted contacts are gone.
