Nokia C7 Duplicate Contacts after synchronizing wi...

I recently, synchronized my contacts with Ovi sync, which was aborted in the middle due to a technical Connectivity Problem. After that I again synched after about an hour.This time the Sync was successful. But to my annoyance I found that more than 1500 records got duplicated in my mobile and now I have this unpleasant task of removing each of these duplicate contacts manually or merge them. Is there a way to do a mass merge of duplicate contacts at one go...
But I must say Nokia's OVi is a big Pain to use as there is always some technical or software issue or the other.
Bottom Line - Nokia's smart phones are not smart enough and their support services (online and Nokia care centers ) are nothing but a place where you could only do your software re-installation. Period. These guys do not know to handle specific software/hardware issues. All they know is re-install the software or re-start the phone. I think I was smarter when I had an ordinary Nokia N70....the biggest mistake I did was to select a nokia Smart Phone.

  • Iphone 4s creates duplicate contacts after connecting to office 365 services

    I have a client that has an iphone 4s after she synchronized her iphone with an office 365 online services account(its exchange 2010).
    now the phone keep creating duplicate contacts (even after I delete them they keep apearing).
    microsoft says its an apple problem what can be done?
    thanks
    rotem

    In Mid-August, 2012, this problem still continues and I am unaware any fix to the problem.
    I am running iOS 5.1 on iPhone 4S
    Outlook (Hosted Exchange) 365
    WIndows 7
    Outlook 2010 client
    Initial setup:
    Contacts clean and no duplicates in Hosted Exchange & Outlook 2010
    Zero contacts in the iPad and iPhone before syncing with Exchange services
    Same condition with iPhone
    Same condition with iPad
    iTunes not involved, no syncing ever (and no [email protected] ever created.)
    iCloud Mail, Contacts, Calendar, Notes all turned off
    Connected with Exchange with legit user name, password and server domain, togel soft switches on the Exchange Mail, Contacts, Calenday and Labels/Reminders.
    iPhone receives synced contacts (and email and calendar and notes) from Exchange Active Sync
    User is fine until he/she searches for a contact via iOS device.
    As searches continue , user believes that Contacts crash (quit unexpectedly and return to main iOS app page.
    Duplicates begin to display on the iOS device that Contacts crashed on.
    IF the user then edits one of the phantom duplicate contacts, the record duplicatiuon begins to grow in Outlook Contacts. But if no pantom editing happens, the duplications continues only on the iOS device and the contacts begin to appear in tripples and more .
    If you are having this problem, please post it, so that if Apple ever reads these boards, they see the problem is not isolated to a few and they begin to understand that the iOS devices will be jetisoned from enterprise customers because problems like this should be acknoledged and resolved on a MUCH more timely manner.

  • Duplicate contacts after iCloud migration and updates

    Hello everyone!
    Any help would be very appreciated.  Since I  updated to 10.7.2 and merged onto the iCloud......I have duplicate and triplicate contacts on my computers and on my cell phone and iPad2.  I have tried using the "FIND DUPLICATES..." but that just stalls and eventualy crashes the contacts program.  Does anyone have any suggestions on how to correct this problem??  THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP!!
    P DUB OKC

    Thanks JB for your response.  I will tell you though, that I called AppleCare and spoke to a technical support rep there and was informed that it was a known issue today that iCloud is sending out duplicate contacts and so not to worry about it---it will clear itself up soon.
    I hope that was an accurate reponse.  Any ideas??

  • HT201269 Duplicate contacts after droid transfer

    I have an iPhone 5.  My data was transferred from a droid.  I now have many duplicate contacts.  I only need to sync with Outlook.  How should I eliminate the dupes?

    Then they did something incorrectly.
    Confirm in the Contacts app that multiple Groups do not exist, it may be a simple matter of removing a single group.

  • Duplicate contacts after upgrading?

    I started from
         a Mac Power Book running Snow Leopard  - too old to upgrade to Mountain Lion and afirst generation iPad
         Not at all sure how either of those worked wo\ith iCloud
    I switched to a MacMini on Mountain Lion and also from an iPhine 4 to an iPhine 5
    So I sort of stumbled into iCloud  before and after my upgrade
    Now I have duplicates in my Contacts on my MacMini, my iphone 5 and my iPad  but not yet on my Power book
    my iCloud account for Mail on the iPad is empty
    My calendar on the iPad has dupplicates. One has 158 duplicates
    Obviously I screwed up in my transition if it before and since
    I guess I have two problems
    First to stop any more havoc  probably by cleaning up settings for iCloud and on each device
    Second to remove duplicates especially from Contacts  deleting one at a time is tough when there over 100 dups

    If the contacts are correct and unduplicated on your PowerBook, export them to a vCard by opening Address Book, select All Contacts on the left sidebar, click on a single contact, the press Command-A to select all contacts (they should all be highlighted), then go to File>Export>Export vCard and save it on your desktop.
    Then delete all of your contacts on icloud.com (which will delete them from your other devices too.*  Go to icloud.com, open Contacts. click on All Contacts on the left, to the right click on any single contact to select it, click on the Actions (gear shaped) icon at the bottom and choose Select All, then press the Delete key on your keyboard.
    Then email the vCard you created earlier from your PowerBook to yourself.  Open the email on your iPhone and tap the attachment to import the contacts to your iPhone, as well as to iCloud and your other devices.
    * If you want, you can make a precautionary backup of the duplicated contacts as they are now before starting.  To do this, open Contacts on your Mac Mini, select all contacts, export them as a vCard and save it on your desktop.

  • Duplicate contacts after synching iPhone with Outlook

    After I synched my new iPhone with my Outlook contacts there are many I do not need/want on my phone. Is there an easy way to edit all these on-line somewhere...rather than going thru each contact on my iPhone?

    Office 365 is a Microsoft product. Please try:

  • Duplicate Contacts After Syncing Two iPhones from the Same iTunes

    My husband and I each have an iPhone that we sync from the same iTunes account. We sync our Yahoo contacts as well. Following the upgrade yesterday, we each now have each other's Yahoo contacts (as well as our own) showing up on our iPhones. Any ideas on how to fix this?

    Go to Settings>Messages>Send and Receive at>You can be reached for iMessages at. Uncheck the phone number that you don't want to use and check/select the number that you do want to use on each phone.

  • How can I add duplicate contacts on my iPhone

    I know that the majority of related Qs on here are about deleting duplicated contacts; and yes that can be a pain, but I want to go the other way.
    After I have spent ages filling in all the contact ino for someone [workwise etc], I often need to have another person from that same organisation. OK, so the name and SOME info is different, but at least 50% is relkative.
    Can I duplicate the original entry and then amend the copy to get the new contact without just entering the WHOLE thing again ?

    Thank you randers4 for answer above. I highly recommend using the info. in the two apple links below:

  • TS4147 How do i remove duplicate contacts, i downloaded icloud control panel

    i need help on resolving duplicate contacts after setting up icloud control panel.

    You can delete the duplicates on icloud.com, or you can try using one of the apps that say they can identify and merge duplicate contacts.  (If you have a Mac, you can do this by opening your contacts and going to Card>Look for Duplicates.)
