Same contact listed numerous times

My contact list is over 4000, I am using g mail for my contact list and google sync. I have gone thru and cleaned up my list (on pc), turned off "keep duplicate contacts" and deleted all contacts, researched google extensively, spent hours on the phone w/ sprint and BB.... other than doing a wipe, basically gone to the ends of the earth (twice) to find a solution. Anybody else have this problem?

    Are you using DesignPro from Avery? You should.

    Hi user 1724, before icloud, we had the same issue.... 
    so yes,  the solution was to  each log  into the mac separately.
    i kept the main itunes library and apple id, and my son made his own itunes library (which linked to the main itunes/apple id)   - so we were able to maintain separate contacts lists.
    but then w/ the cloud i guess we assumed the cloud would know we each have different contact lists on diff. phones, but it seems the cloud just lumped it all together -

  • C6380 prints same print job numerous times

    I've setup the C6380 without any problem
    Connected it to my HP t760.uk without any problem, running Windows XP SP3
    However, I have the following problem when connected to my Toshiba A300-1MC, running Windows Vista
    It prints out the same print job numerous times
    It started off at 3, but it is now at 25 and increasing!
    When opening the queue it shows as "printing" and then updates to "printing - restarting", and cycles through this
    It is as if the laptop is not receiving the "job complete" signal and deletes the job
    Any advice welcome
    I have now started to open the queue and soon as the second one starts right click and cancel it manually, but it still wastes a page as it usually spools this page

    I prefer to use the "long" method for printing, where possible
    The tests I have done are from :
    Windows Mail, for a short email
    Print
    Print
    In the above the default Print Preferences settings are used, with 1 copy
    IE8
    Print Preview
    Page Number 1 only
    Print
    In the above the default Print Preferences settings are used, with 1 copy
    Notepad / Wordpad, with some very simple text
    Print
    No options appear, the default Print Preferences settings will be used, with 1 copy
    Start
    Settings
    Printers and Faxes
    In this menu the C6380 is set as the default printer
    Properties
    Location IP=192.168.0.102,Host=HPF81E9F
    Sharing No
    Ports HP_192.168.0.102_SN (SN = Serial Number)
    Printing Preferences
    The only changes I have made are :
    Resizing Options A4
    Scale to Paper Size A4
    Colour = Print in Grayscale
    Advanced = Back to front
    The above are identical in HP t760.uk Win XP SP2, which works OK
     However, the back to front printing does not work (on either)

  • Contacts duplicated numerous times when syncing iPhone 4

    Since updating to iOS5, when syncing my wife's iPhone 4, many of her contacts are duplicated numerous times.  She has Windows 7 and uses MS Outlook for contacts and calendar.  Contacts in her Outlook file are not duplicated.  I can manually delete the duplications, but the next sync repeats the duplications.  How do I stop this madness?

    I have the same problem. Using an iPhone 3G.
    Events made on the iPhone multiply every time the iPhone is synced with the Macbook. Events made in iCal on the Macbook pro do not seem to double up when synced with the iPhone.
    When creating events on the iPhone I usually set the events to repeat every day (until i complete the event and then I delete it)
    Hope some one can offer some insight.
    using a Macbook Pro 5.1 2.66Ghz. OSX 10.6.6. 4GB Ram. 500GB HD.

  • How to Use same contact list on two iPhones

    How do I use same "All Contacts list" / address book on two different iPhones?  Currently using Verizon backup assistant.

    Use a service which lets you sync contacts between devices e.g. Apple iCloud, Gmail with Contacts etc.

  • Same doc lists multiple times in Finder

    When I search for a document in Finder, it will list that document a hundred times.  The same document, with a date next to it.  As if it has to list every time I've opened it.  I just want the document and all that noise makes it confusing.  THere arent' multiple versions are there?
    The other thing I hate is that I search for a document, and I put in the EXACT title of the document.  It will give a list of a million files that have nothing to do with the document I am looking for.  Files from apps, all kinds of crap. 
    Is there a setting or something to make Finder work better?  Because right now, it really is kinda ridiculous the way it's working on my computer.

    You need to make sure the artist name is spelt in an identical manner on every track. Even an extra space at the end of the name that you might not notice can make a difference. Try this even if everything looks the same. Sort your iTunes library by artist to bring your tracks together. Click on the first track by your artist, hold down the shift key and click on the last track in the list, this will highlight all in between. Right click on the list and choose Get Info, you get a dialogue box asking if you want to update multiple items, click Yes. If you see the "artist" field is left blank, then there is a discrepancy with that name. Overtype the artist name then click ok and this will ensure the whole selection is identical. Once you've done this connect your iPod, if you are updating automatically it will pick up the changes. If you are updating manually follow the instructions above with the iPod connected and carry out the changes directly on the iPod's song list.
    If the name is not the issue, try this. Highlight all the songs for that artist, right click on them and select "apply sort field/same artist".

  • Help! Same contact list, different phones

    We have 3 phones. Myself, my husband and my daughters. We just recently went from me and my husband having Iphone 4's to iphone 5s. When we had the 4's we shared contacts and the calendar. We run a business and it just made sense to have it accessible whether we were on the phone, mac or ipad. Then when we upgraded, we gave our daughter my old iphone 4. Immediately all **** broke loose. We now have some, but not all of our contacts. We also have some of our daughter's contacts. For example, I had my husband saved as ICE with some info in the contact itself, like DOB. This contact is GONE. On both of our phones, in the recent calls the contacts are saved like my daughter's contact list so it says "DAD" not ICE.
    I want to know how to make it so that either my daughter has her own contacts and my husband and I share (preferred)
    or
    One master contact list, but as we had it before we added her phone.
    Any help would be great!

    What's probably going on is that you are sharing the same iCloud account on all 3 phones, syncing Contacts with iCloud.  When you do this, the contacts on all three are merged, and the merged list appears on all three phones (and any other devices sharing the same iCloud account).  Then your daughter probably saw some of your husband's contacts on her phone and started deleting them.  When you share an iCloud account, any contact added or deleted is added or deleted from all devices sharing the account.
    To straighten this out, your daughter needs her own iCloud account with a separate Apple ID.  (Note: she can still share the same ID for purchasing from the iTunes and App stores without creating any problems.  The ID used for purchasing does not need to be the same as the ID used for other services such as iCloud.)  To do this, on her phone go to Settings>iCloud and turn all data that is syncing with iCloud (contacts, calendars, etc.) to Off.  When prompted choose to keep the data on the iPhone.  After everything is turned off, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account.  (This will only delete the account from this phone, not from iCloud.  The other devices still sharing the account will not be effected by this.)  Next, set up a new iCloud account on her phone using a different Apple ID and turn iCloud data syncing for contacts, etc. back to On.  When prompted, choose Merge.  This will upload the data to this new account.
    To untangle the merged data you will then have to go to icloud.com on your computer and sign into each iCloud account separately and manually delete the unwanted data (such as deleting your contacts from your daughter's new account, and vice versa).  These changes will be reflected on each device syncing with the account being changed.
    Another thing to watch out for is that you should also be using a separate Apple ID for iMessage and FaceTime.  If you don't you'll end up getting each other's text messages and FaceTime calls on your devices.  To change the ID for iMessage, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive (Receive At in iOS 5), tap the ID listed, sign out, then sign back in using a separate ID.  For FaceTime, do the same thing in Settings>FaceTime.

  • How do you select multiple recipients without having to open the contacts list each time

    Just upgraded to Yosemite...not really impressed with the overall look but...can live it.  Using mail, if you did not want to send to an entire group, you could scroll through and select all the desired addresses at one time.  Now it appears that you have to click on the "plus sign", select one address, have it close then repeat the same process over and over.  Sorry, not an improvement if this is the way it is designed to work.   Any ideas on how to do this?
    Thanks for any help.

    Thanks for the input.  I am not sure why they changed the old system....is there any way to force the contact box to stay open?  Not being able to scroll down a list and select multiple selections is a big step back.  Hopefully Apple will get the message. 

  • Same Artist Listed Multiple times on iPod..

    Before anyone tells me about changing the artist info of the song, I know about that. The problem is not the file info, I haven't changed the artist's info in about 6 months but all of sudden, on my iPod only not iTunes, the same artist is listed about 10 times. I only have one album of the artist on my iPod, and like I said the files haven't been edited in months. I know its not a serious problem, but it is annoying scrolling through the same artist and I am hoping my iPod is becoming corrupted. Anyone experience the same problem?

    Hmm...same here.
    I had posted my question under the itunes post about a week ago and heard nothing back.
    In my case, after the recent update I added a new album to an aready existing artist in my iTunes, synced and the next time I used the ipod , I noticed it had the same Artist 3 times, identical playlist, album tiltes, and tracks!
    I've unchecked the artist, synced, and as expected they go from the ipod.
    I check them back on and they appear 3 times again after syncing.
    The only thing I have yet to do is a total restore. But with 60gigs of video audio and photos, its a bit of a pain!
    Im getting very wary of these Itunes updates, remember the infamous -48 error that had every one baffled for about a month?
    In my case the artist in question is New Order. I've renamed all my NO tracks to New Order2 as the artist, synced and the artist comes up twice!
    I've renamed them back to 'New Order' and clicked on 'Album artist' to be 'New Order' also and re synced and I get back 3 in the list!!!

  • Same Artist Lists Multiple Times

    I'm confused on why a random artist will list itself multiple times when others will organize themsevles under one name with a drop menu. All the artist/album/track information is listed correctly but on Itunes and on the Ipod it will list it seperately instead of together. Anyone know how to fix that?

    You need to make sure the artist name is spelt in an identical manner on every track. Even an extra space at the end of the name that you might not notice can make a difference. Try this even if everything looks the same. Sort your iTunes library by artist to bring your tracks together.

If you are updating manually follow the instructions above with the iPod connected and carry out the changes directly on the iPod's song list.
    If the name is not the issue, try this. Highlight all the songs for that artist, right click on them and select "apply sort field/same artist".

  • Same album listed multiple times

    I have songs from the same album but they are listed as seperate albums so the cover art flow has numerious albums that are the same.

    Try filling in the Album Artist for all tracks, and make sure that the Album and Artist fields are identical for all the tracks.
