PC Sync / Synchronize created duplicate address bo...

I just Synchronized two 6126 phones to pick up changes to my Contacts (MS Outlook). The first phone worked fine, but on the second phone I see that I now have duplicates of every entry in my address book. To fix this I would like to blast the current address book on that phone and then copy a fresh copy of my contacts from MS Outlook (like a one-way synchronize). How would I do that?  I'm afraid to delete every entry in the address book and then Sync with my PC as it might then delete every entry in my MS Outlook Contacts. 

HI
   If you want to have both Contacts entery seperately,Then you have to make two profiles on your MS-Outlook SW.
t hen you can have both your enteries seperately.

  • Synchronize creates duplicates in data base

    I import photos from the memory card to a folder. Regardless of import from a device or disk, convert to DNG or just copy the files I get duplicates if I try to synchronize the folder. If I remove the last created duplicate import and synchronize the folder, the files are duplicated again. If I remove the first imported photos and then synchronize, no duplicates are created. Don't import suspected duplicates is checked. This makes the synchronize command unusable for me. Is there a way around this?

    Yes, all files are duplicated. As far as I have checked this occurs consistently.
    Yes, as I already wrote Don't import suspected duplicates is checked
    The reason I synchronize is exactly according to the help text:
    "When you synchronize folders, you have the option of adding files that have been added to the folder but not imported into the catalog, removing files that have been deleted, and scanning for metadata updates. The photo files in the folder and all subfolders can be synchronized. You can determine which folders, subfolders, and files are imported."

  • Syncing ical creates duplicates

    How do I stop creating duplicates when I sync iCal or Contacts to my iPad? I'm using Mountain Lion and iOS on iPad is up-to-date.

    Usually that happens because you're syncing both with iCloud or another CalDAV server and with iTunes. Choose one or the other.

  • Firefox with Profile-sync-daemon creates duplicate cache directory

    I've set up the Profile-sync-daemon https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Pr … ync-daemon (mainly to ease on my old SSD) and it works fine but Firefox keeps creating entries in
    /home/<username>/.cache/mozilla/firefox/<myprofilename>
    It contains 3 directories
    /safebrowsing
    /startupCache
    /thumbnails
    Since I set up psd I've been using

    1. browser.cache.use_new_backend 0 (restore to default)

    I'd rather preserve contents of ~/.cache between reboots. Especially because it holds nautilus thumbnails. I'd rather keep my Firefox cache as well.

  • Syncing contacts creates duplicates

    I would be grateful for any help. I don't sync my iPhone 3GS as often as I would like because when I do, I end up with all my contacts being duplicated. What I want is for all new/edited/deleted entries on my PC to be appropriately adjusted on my iPhone, and all new/edited/deleted items on my iPhone to be appropriately adjusted on my PC. (It would be even better if it asked which version is the correct one.)
    When I sync, my entire contacts list ends up being duplicated, so I have 2 of almost everything.
    I don't understand the collected Contacts concept. At one point my collected contacts was a 90% duplicate of my Contacts folder.
    I am clearly doing something wrong. If anybody can help, that would be awesome.
    Thanks!

    I am using Outlook 2007 on my PC.
    I am not using Mobile Me; rather I am running the sync on my PC using iTunes. The duplicates were on both my iPhone and my computer, but they didn't always appear to be identical. It is somewhat complicated by the fact that I use Plaxo to update my contacts folder(s) on my PC.
    I worked with Plaxo to combine all contacts folders, and then I went through each item and deleted all duplicates. Then I synced with my phone, and finally got it down to one unduplicated list. This was tedious, since I have over 1,000 contacts.
    Now I am getting ready to sync, and I am not sure what to check on the sync menu. It asks whether I want contacts added on the phone synced to my Collected Contacts folder. Why add it to a separate folder instead of my main contacts folder? Does this add a separate item that you then use to update the main folder?
    Thank you and sorry for all the questions.

  • Every time I sync my iPhone (IOS 7) in iPhoto it creates duplicate images

    Every time I sync my iPhone (IOS 7) in iPhoto it creates a duplicate, but not on my Mac, how do I slove or fix this? even if I delete all of the duplicates manually on my phone or Mac, if I sync, it creates duplicates 

    Have you ever had all 7 of them synced before? Are these ringtones you made yourself? Is there a chance they could exceed 30 seconds in length? Is there a chance you have moved the original file location on the computer? May need the answers to a couple more questions to try and determine an answer.

    Hi Naresh,
    Thanks for reply. Correction instructions from this note refer to METHOD MODIFY_CONP_ADDRES which doesn't exist in crm7.0.
    I can see in CRM that contact person is replicated and is present in BUT000 but table BUT052 is empty for this contact.
    What is more we have implemented in our CRM note 564538  To change Contact Persons grouping replicated from ECC to CRM.
    But also have: Note 757955 - Incompatible change concerning CRMC_BUT_CALL_FU.
    We checked as well
    Note 609766 - Correction of BP GUIDS in CRMM_BUT_CUSTNO, BUT000, CRMKUNNR
    Note 836353 and run reports to find inconsistencies in tables BUT052, BUT051, ADCP and ADRVP. However no inconsistencies were found.
    Thanks in advance if you have any other idea.

  • How to create a duplicate address book contact?

    This seems so simple yet I cannot determine how to create a new duplicate address book contact. I have a few contacts from the same company and want to change the variable data instead of re entering the data
    I can create a new contact, copy the data of the record I want to duplicate yet when I paste the info into the new record - address book puts everything into one field.
    Why not a duplicate contact command?
    GRRRR

    Rich,
    According to Address Book Help:
    To duplicate an address card:
    Select an address card.
    Choose Edit > Copy, and then choose Edit > Paste.
    Works for me

  • Eliminate duplicate names when syncing with a car address book

    have i phone 4 and car with bluetooth; car syncs address books through bluetooth; iphone contacts are in smart groups so a name may appear in more than one group; resuts in duplicates in car phone directory; how eliminate

    everything works fine when syncing through itunes because i can select which smart groups to sync with iphone, which in turn syncs with my BMW address book. however, with the introduciton of i cloud, i have not seen anything that says we will still be able to use smart groups in the same fashion. without designating sync with specific cmart groups, fear is that all contacts will be updated via the cloud, which will lead to all contacts, including duplicate contacts, appearing on iphone [and not just the ones from the smart groups], which in turn will lead to duplciate names in BMW address book

  • Iphone sync creates duplicates

    AHHH Itunes syncing confuses me. First it created duplicates tracks on my Iphone when I synced it to my itunes library on my mac pro. Then it deleted, somewhat randomly it appears, music I had purchased on my mac form the itunes library there. I'm obviously not managing the settings regarding syncing very well. How do I delete the duplicated tracks on my Iphone?

    Um... that does not contain "duplicates".
    It's just a view that shows you everything that's in your other albums and events in one place...

  • Do iCloud and Wi-Fi auto sync create duplicates when work same time?

    Do iCloud and Wi-Fi auto sync create duplicates when work same time?
    I assume iCloud should do same that "Sync with this iPhone over Wi-Fi" in iTunes does.
    How do they coexist?

    Thanks for reply but somehow desagre as I just drow attention to the iTunes that Sync iCal Calendars indicates:
    quote - Your calendars are being synced with iCloud over the air. You can also choose to sync calendars with this computer. this may result in duplicated data showing on your device.
    unquote-
    Same about Bookmarks, Mail and Contacts.

  • Calender sync creates duplicate entries!!

    Everytime an update comes out out for either iphone or itunes, my calender sync creates duplicate entries. One of them is being duplicated for atleast 7 times.
    Please guide me to resolve this issue and if there is a feedback for developers, they should try to resolve this issue in future updates.
    Thanks.

    Hi and welcome to the BlackBerry Forums
    I never hear this, but try this.
    If you have all the correct data in outlook, my suggestion is wipe the device (all the data is erased) and synch the device again.
    To wipe the device go to menu,  options, security options, general options, press menu, and wipe handheld.
    If I help you with any inquire, thank you for click kudos in my post.
    If your issue has been solved, please mark the post was solved.

  • Problems syncing from contacts to address book

    I have an iMac which now runs OSX 10.6.8 and an iPhone 3GS that runs the latest iOS 5.
    Long story short, I downgraded from OSX Lion back to OSX 10.6.8 a few months ago.  Got quite a few problems doing so...  ended up creating a brand new user and transferring music, videos and photos manually.  Then, the iOS 5 got out and I upgraded my phone right away.  I couldn't figure out icloud at first but understood yesterday that it works only with Lion.  I thought I'd keep it on my phone if I ever want to install Lion again.
    I also realised that I never transfered back in my iMac all my iCal events and Contacts.
    So yesterday, I tryied to sync my Contacts, iCal and Notes from my iPhone to my iMac.  In the iTune info tab, under each section, there was a message mentioning that since I use iCloud, I don't need to sync my info through iTune and doing so would possibly create duplicates.  I try to sync them anyway since I only had to in Address Book.  I got the message to merge or replace.  I selected merge (yes I had at least one contact in Address Book).  Nothing happened...  iCal didn't merge anything and neither Address Book.  I tried to create new events in my phone and iMac and these were syncing but not the original ones.  Also added a contact in Address Book and it got sync with my phone.  I didn't try creating one on the phone to sync it through but assumed that it was working.
    After going through a few discussion threads, I decided to delete the iCloud account on my phone since I didn't need it and try re-syncing.  The iCloud message in the iTune's info tab was gone so I thought everything would be good and I could select merge my contact again without any problem.  I was wrong...  I lost all my contacts...  I freeeeeeeeaked out !!  Thank God I didn't unplug the phone and restored it right away to get everything back.
    I tried it again this afternoon but only tried to sync iCal.  I didn't get to choose between merge and replace and the same thing happened again...  lost everything...  iCal but also Contacts which I find strange because I didn't check the Contact option in iTune....   I got everything restored back even thought it's always scary to try things like this....  So for now on, I don't delete my iCloud info on my Phone and do not sync any other info.  I'm actually scared to plug it in and always double check that my contacts are all there before unplugging.
    So here I am...  don't really know what to do...  I read stuff about removing apple.isync files or something...  or other options but they never quite answer my problem...
    There is still the option to type all my contacts back in Address Book..  I don't have that many... but it's a pain...
    Sorry about the long message here
    Thanks for your help and for your time.
    Ben

    Clearly iSync has got confused about what new data it needs to pull from the phone. Usually resetting the sync history solves this, but as it hasn't for you... try this:
    I would suggest sending all the contacts from the phone to the Mac manually via Bluetooth: *Contacts > Options > More > Advanced > Send all Contacts > Via Bluetooth* (or similar, depending on the exact phone model)
    This will send vCard(s) which can be imported into the Mac Address Book simply by double-clicking the file that arrives on your Mac.
    Merge or remove any duplicates as they are imported. You can also use the *Card > Look for Duplicates* command in Address Book.
    Once all your Contacts are exactly as you want them in Address Book do a full backup of them:
    *File > Export > Address Book archive...*
    Finally, load iSync, click your phones icon and choose *Reset Device...* from the Devices menu.
    This will force iSync to remove all the existing contacts from the phone and completely replace them with all the new nicely sorted out ones from the Mac Address Book.
    From this point on, iSync should keep track of what needs updating on each subsequent sync.

  • 'Show Mac Contacts' creates duplicates
