Nokia 700 contact synchronization problem

Hello, I've added exchange mail to my phone. And suddenly saw that all my old contacts where replaced with new ones from Exchange. I turned them (new contacts) off from mail settings. Then tried to synchronize phone book, to get contacts from Nokia sync server. But I didn't get anything. So I think that contact were deleted from Nokia server... The question is, can I somehow restore my contacts? Maybe they are versioned on Nokia server? And I can get specific version of them? Please help me.

A few corrections to my previous post ... I had to dig through old emails, since the Ovi help pages redirects to the Nokia landing page nowadys.
November 2012 Ovi Sync users had the option to link their sync'ed contacts to Nokiamail (Yahoo):
=====X=====
In the past you signed up for Nokia Mail/Chat service and Nokia Sync service. Nokia Mail/Chat allows you to email and chat on the go on your Nokia phone and Nokia Sync allows you to backup your phone contacts and retrieve them if you replace your phone.
We are now releasing a new feature and linking Nokia Mail and Nokia Sync services so that your phone contacts can be synced with Nokia Mail contacts. With this feature, you can use Nokia Mail webmail's powerful: contacts viewing, editing, exporting and importing features to manage your device contacts.
=====X=====
Around the same time, the web access to contacts and calendars from account.nokia.com were removed.
The Nokia Sync on the phone however continues to work, and it was possible to retrieve my backup this morning.
(If the first sync fails, try Options -> Restore from Nokia Sync on the phone).

Contact synchronization problem with Mercedes Audio 50 APS

It seems to be impossible to import iPhone contacts from Mercedes Audio 50 APS system embedded on my C Classe (W or S204 / july 2009) car.
The problem persists with upgraded iPhone from iOS 3.1.3 to iOS 4.1 on iPhone 3G.
My Mercedes agent test with another iPhone's models: 3GS & 4 => the same problem occurs !
After a long search on MB web site (http://www.mercedes-benz-mobile.com/fr/fr/s204/0/bt.compare.php), I fund the official answer: contact synchronization not supported !!!! Simply inconceivable on behalf of a "premium" car brand !!!!
Hereafter a screen copy of the (french version) MB web site...

What a shame. It works just fine in my Kia.

Nokia 700 call volume problem

Hi all,
I hope this is in the right place. I recently got a Nokia 700, and after talking for about 5 - 15 minutes, the call volume goes very faint and I have to put the call on Speaker to hear the other person. Vodacom SA swapped out my phone twice, but all of them have the same problem. Is it a problem on the phone? I have tried holding the phone in such a way that I don't block any of the Microphones or speakers...

Any ideas?

Hi zygoual,
Welcome to the BB Community...
If ur facing such issue wth contacts sync, and the priority is to have a backup of ur contacts, then i wud suggest u to download apps that takes a backup of ur contacts and other things n keeps them to ur memory card...
Later, if u even reinstall ur OS n loose the contacts n other things, u just have to install that particular app(cz reinstallation deletes all the Apps that u have installed) from which u have taken the backup n just restore them from ur memory card through that App...
Some such Apps are "Contacts to Excel", "Data Backup" etc...There are lots n lots of such apps in the BB app world...choose then one which will best suit ur need...
with regards
simply abhik...

Nokia 6230 Contacts Sync Problem with Outlook

I have a Nokia 6230 and used to sync my contacts with outlook using PCSYNC. Now I receive a message that sync is completed but only 1 or 2 contacts are copied to the outlook (always the same ones). I have already updated the PC Synch version many times, tried to change configurations on PC Sync and on the phone, created new folders on outlook and sync profiles, cleaned the configuration files on "documents and settings" folder, contacted Nokia phone suport in Brazil, but nothing worked.
I use Windows 2000 SP4 in English, connect through Infrared and have the 6.81.13.0 version of PC Sync (I have already tried many other versions). I'm using Phone memory. When I use PC Sync explorer those same few contacts that are synchronized are the only ones that I can see in the contacts folder.
I think the problem is in some configuration file in Windows environment or I have a problem with the phone set.
Please if anyone could help me I would apreciate. I have lost many hours trying to fix that problem.

Today I searched through the discussions and found many other users with the same problem (Himalaya2050, Marbru, tugrulislier). Almost everybody using Nokia6230 and using international character set, maybe the root cause for the sync problem.
I think Nokia should have a tested fix for that problem.
Was the phone update the solution for other users? Do you have any feedback? I haven't found in the discussions any user with that problem solved.
When I first contact Nokia support in Brazil they told me to do many time consuming procedures (reinstall and update PC sw many times) that didn't worked and didn't make sense for me, as the sync was working with previous version. So I don't want to try another non tested solution, because I will have to go to a tech assistance, wait and probably loose all the information stored on the phone.
I think I will have to exchange my phone ...

Google contact synchronization problems

I have a IPhone 4 and just upgraded to 5.0 os. I have two gmail accounts on my MacBook Pro (one for business and one for pesonal). I had no problems synchronizing with the old os. Now, when I synchronize, a get lots of changes to my Google contact list.
Examples are:
Prefixes to names are selectively added
Some contacts appear up to 12 times with exactly the same information
New account names and addresses are added. Dont know who they are. Some are from an old unused Microsoft Entourage file that has not been used for years. The IPhone shound not be picking up any contacts from any other files since I have specified sync with Google contacts only.
To solve the problem, I completely stripped all contacts off the IPhone. Then I spent hours correcting all contact errors from both accounts. I then used ITunes>Info>Sync address book accounts>Sync Google contacts>configure>sync.
All of the corrections I made in Google are gone. All prefixes, multiple accounts, etc. are back on both Google and on my Iphone.
What gives? Is this a software glitch? What am I doing wrong?

Trying to sync with Google is a DISASTER. I'm going to the Apple store and let them fix it. I have been screwing with trying to synchronize my Iphone and Google for 9 hours. What a piece of crap. I really wish I could go back to the old OS

Nokia 5800 contacts search problem after phone swi...

Recently bought a new 5800. Used Phone Switch to retrieve contacts from older Nokia, seemed to work ok.
The problem is that ALL NEW contacts added to 5800 memory appear BELOW the contacts list (not sorted) AND cannot be found via contact search. This is very annoying. How can this be fixed?
Thanks.

It sometimes does this.
Unlock the phone, go into the messaging and come back out again.
The "new message" notification should stop now.

Nokia 2730 Contact search problem

Nokia 2730, having trouble searching for contacts, it will only let me search by their first name, anything else is irrelivant.
ie; if I have a contact called 'Bob Smith' and I search for 'Smith' it will not show up.
I think I need this function as I am constantly sending group for organising sporting teams.
I believe I have the lastest software in the phone, brand new out of the box I used Nokia Ovi Suite to try and update it, it said there were no updates available.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Some ammendment in chanchan05's first post..
In case of S40 phones.. under Contacts settings-->Name display..If 'Last Name First' is selected..then the search is on LAST NAME..but yes, with a corresponding setting it will either search on First Name or Last Name at one time and not have the search functionality of an S60..
@wigwam - Can you explain your problem a bit more ? What comes up when you type 'M' ?..and is it a One Off issue or happens with search for any other contact (e.g. you have a contact called Jimmy and when you type 'J' it doesn't bring his name up)?

Tour Outlook Contacts Synchronization Problem

Every time I wire synch my BB Tour with my MS Outlook, the Contacts on my computer (Dell PC) have added lines in the address of the contact and a repearted duplicated line of the street or suite part of the address. Is there a way to stop this. It does it on about 100 of my 1400 contacts every time I synch.

The following steps will help you to configure synchronization -
Connect your device using Desktop Manager and click on Synchronize
From the menu on the left click Synchronization under Configuration
Again click Synchronization button on the right which will give you option to Select Device Application that you want to synchronize
Put the check mark and you'll get a prompt to Select Desktop Application
Highlight the application name and click next button
Under Synchronization Option you get Direction of Synchronization
Check the radio button with Two way sync
Note: above mentioned steps are explained as per Desktop Manager 4.7
Example: Synchronize address book/calendar -
Connect you handheld with your desktop Manager in your PC. If you device is set to wireless sync then you need to turn off wireless synchronization.
To do so go to Address Book -> click Menu -> Options -> Wireless Synchronization: No -> click Menu and Save the changes. For Calendar, Calendar -> click Menu -> Options -> choose desired Calendar -> Wireless Synchronization: No -> click Menu and Save the changes.
Click on the Synchronize button on Desktop Manager -> Click on Configuration Tab then click on Configure Synchronization -> Click on Choose under Address Book/Calendar (on the right side of the pop up window) -> Click on you organizer apps (like, MS outlook, Lotus notes, Yahoo! etc) -> Select desired apps -> select Synchronization radio button and click OK twice go back to Synchronize tab ->click on Synchronize Now.
