Nokia suite not syncing full contact details

Hi - I've just upgraded my 10-year old mobile to a Nokia 300. I've got the latest version of Nokia Suite, to enable me to edit my Contacts properly on-screen. Trouble is, it refuses to send the full details to the phone. Where contacts have a mobile number and a home landline (as most do!), one or the other - usually the mobile, ironically - is left out or just ignored in the sync. The shop has advised me to edit all such contacts manually on the phone itself.
Anyone know a way to force Nokia's Nokia Suite to do the sync-to-Nokia phone job properly?

It appears that telling Nokia Suite to sync is insufficient. You have to drag the full version of a contact from the PC list to the phone list and tell the suite to copy it; or vice versa.
Hope this helps anyone else suffering this infuriating "software glitch" as techsup call it.

  • HT204053 I have two apple ID's and it's causing problems in my contacts. It repeats the same address and sometimes displays email address only but not the full contact details? How do I get my contact list the same in all my devices (iMac, iPhone & iPad (

    I have two Apple ID's and it's casing problems on my contact list as it repeats the address in somecases and in others it only displays email address for a contact. I want to have the same contact list and details on all my devices (iMac, iPhone 4S & iPad Mini)? Is it possible?

    By using 1 of the 2 ID's instead of both, choose one, move everything in the other one to the one you chose and stop using it.

  • How can I use 2 iPhone 4's on same iTunes account, but NOT sync same contacts?

    How can I use 2 iPhone 4's on same iTunes account, but NOT sync same contacts?

    They need to be registered under different Apple ID's.  The initial Apple ID is set when you first start the phone up.  If you've already registered the phone to the iTunes account, back it up to your computer, and then have iTunes do a factory reset.  Go to www.icloud.com, log in with your current Apple ID, select "Find My iPhone," choose the iPhone you want to dissociate from your primary Apple ID from the upper left, and then click the little circled X ("remove").
    When you start the phone, it will have you go through the setup process again, at which time you need to create a unique Apple ID for the device.  You can then restore it from your iTunes backup to get back your apps and other settings.
    Whenever you use the iTunes store, use the login information (Apple ID and password) that you were using before.  Basically, the second Apple ID that you created is purely used for accessing iCloud services, which includes synchronization of contacts, iCal events, and other such things.

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    Unfortunately Office for Mac does not support the correct protocols to work with iCloud.

    I'm trying to restore my iPhone 5 to the original settings because it did not sync my contacts from my last phone (it synced from my husband's phone instead).  I am trying to delete everything so I can back it up from my previous phone and not my husband's.  I keep getting a message saying that files were corrupt so it couldn't restore settings. Ideas?

    I tried following the instructions listed in the following thread:
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/19512128#19512128
    but have still been unable to backup data using the third party software.
    TouchCopy tells me I have no photos or Video ad won't alllow me to copy any of the critical files e.g. Notes, Calendar, Contacts, Messages, etc.
    Anyone have any other suggestions for backing up my iPhone? Or help using TouchCopy?
    If I am ever able to get TouchCopy to work, should I be using Copy to iTunes or Copy to PC option?
    Thanks!

  • My blackberry tour does not sync my contacts anymore with outlook 2007. I do not get an error message. Help!!

    My blackberry tour does not sync my contacts anymore with outlook 2007. I do not get an error message. Help!!

    Norton is probably the issue. It can really screw things up, that is one reason I never use it. See if you can temporarily disable it and then try the sync and see if that works.
    On a Mac, there is a way to run a program that repairs permissions for the user, not a Windows thing.

  • My iPod touch 2nd generation does not sync my contacts. I only have iCloud contacts in my address book. How can i sync that?

    My iPod touch 2nd generation does not sync my contacts. I only have iCloud contacts in my address book. How can i sync that?

    I do not fully understand you question.  To use iCloud on an iOS device requires iOS 5 and the 2G only goes to iOS 4.1.2 and thysyu can't access iCloud, including contacts.
    Maybe you could sync the iCloud contacts with anopther program and sync that program with the 2G iPod.
    The following smple states the following for Contacts:
    iCloud: What if my device or computer doesn't meet iCloud system requirements?
    Contacts
    If you want to check your iCloud Contacts, you can do so by visiting icloud.com from a Mac or PC (as long as it meets the browser system requirements for icloud.com).

  • My iPhone 4s is not syncing the contacts and calendar to iCloud.

    My iPhone is not syncing its contacts and calander to iCloud once its entered on the iPhone itself.  It has no problem syncing information entered through iCloud though.  Am I doing something wrong?

    On the iPhone tap Settings > iCloud
    Switch off both Contacts and Calendars then switch back on then reset the device.
    Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home button down at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

  • Mavericks will not sync Apple Contacts with Google, Linkedin, and Facebook?

    I just upgraded to Mavericks. Here is what I find shocking...
    1. Mavericks will NOT sync Apple Contacts with Google Contacts and vice-versa.
    2. During the upgrade, Mavericks linked some of my Apple Contact cards with Google Contacts, but not all of them. It need to be clarified that linking is not syncing. Worse, it corrupted data, and deleted some of the contacts on Google Contacts.
    3. Similarly, Apple Contacts will not sync with Linkedin or Facebook Contacts.
    4. When I contacted Apple, Level 1 support had not idea and assumed that adding a Google Account with automatically sync Apple Contacts with Google Contacts as it did in OS Mountain Lion. Level 2 support did not have much of an idea either, but called me this morning to say that the matter has been escalated, and confirmed that OS X Maverick does NOT sync Apple Contacts with Google Contacts.
    CAUTION before upgrading to Mavericks:
    5. Your Google Contacts / Android devices will not be updated by Apple Contacts, and vice-versa.
    6. Your Facebook / Linkedin contats will not be updated by Apple Contacts, and vice-versa.
    The workaround:
    7. Before upgrade, ensure that your Mountain Lion or earlier address book in synced with Google Contacts.
    8. After upgrade, go to Contacts > Preferences > General > Default Account, and choose your Google Account as your default account. You will now add New Contact (or update existing Google Contacts) in Google Contacts, which your android devices can sync with. You will also see your Google Contacts in Apple Contacts. However, Apple Contacts will NOT sync with Google Contacts and vice-versa.
    Welcome to Mavericks...

    With all due respect @McFly_Marty, kindly do not mislead readers. As funny as it may sound, but you have been taken for a royal ride by Apple Support. Keep in mind that the tough taskmaster Steve Jobs, is no longer there, and it is no surprise that Apple’s innovations are sliding.
    You probably have chosen Google as your default account under "Contacts > Preferences > General > Default Account”.
    Now, when you add New Contact (or update existing Google Contacts) in Google Contacts, you will also see your Google Contacts in Apple Contacts. However, Apple Contacts will NOT sync with Google Contacts and vice-versa.
    Try disabling your Google account in Apple Contacts, and all your new contacts are no longer in Apple contacts. Therefore Apple contacts is not syncing with Google Contacts.
    Therefore, read the following from my original post again.
    “1. Mavericks will NOT sync Apple Contacts with Google Contacts and vice-versa.
    4. When I contacted Apple, Level 1 support had no idea and assumed that adding a Google Account will automatically sync Apple Contacts with Google Contacts as it did in OS Mountain Lion.

  • HELP: Nokia Ovi Suite not syncing specific MS Offi...

    Hi. I've searched the discussions and couldn't find anything matching this specific problem.
    Nokia Ovi Suite is not syncing certain MS Outlook calendar items properly.
    N.O.S. pushes reoccouring calendar items (ie: birthdays & anniversaries) plus all reoccouring tasks forward by one day (on both my desktop and phone).  Other appointments are not changed.
    Has anybody else come across this problem and found a fix?  I'd hate to abandon using the calendar on my phone, or abandon the phone all together.
    My details are as follows:
    Phone: Nokia E7-00 (USA version) with software release PR1.1, custom version 014.002.282.04, product code 059F6L7
    Nokia Ovi Suite: version 3.1.1.90
    Desktop: Windows 7 Ultimate 64b
    MS Office 2007 Ultimate 32b
    Sync connection via USB
    I hope someone is able to provide a solution.  Is a Nokia support person able to respond?

    Hi,
    We would like to investigate this issue.
    Since we were not able to reproduce this error, we would like to have the debug logs.
    These can be created by following the steps:-
    For [phone imei] included in sync, open fileC:\Users\[username]\AppData\Roaming\Nokia\Intellisync\[phone imei]\Configuration\iloptcfg.cfg
    with Notepad and change:
    TifLog=0 to TifLog=200
    TranslatorLogVerbosity=0 to TranslatorLogVerbosity=200
    LevelAll=Yes
    DumpRecords=Yes
    Exit Ovi Suite if it is running and Start Ovi Suite.
    Run synchronization.
    Attach Logs from 3 different areas to error report: 1) Nokia Connector logs, 2) Configuration folder and 3) Nokia Data store.
     1) Nokia Connector Logs: Zip the contents of
        C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Roaming\Nokia Ovi Suite\Nokia Connector\
      2) Configuration Folder: For each [phone imei] included in sync, zip the contents of
        C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Roaming\Nokia\Intellisync\[phone imei]\Configuration\ and attach it to the report.
    3) Nokia Data Store: Zip the contents of
       C:\Users\[Username]\AppData\Local\Nokia\Nokia Data Store
    Please could you provide us with these logs which can lead us to a proper solution.
    Thanks,
    Sagar
