    Question regarding adding contacts to the phone.

    When adding contacts, the default locations to save the contacts are: "Local Contacts, DESKTOP, Outlook" (Desktop being my PC)

    1) Is there a way to set a default to just Outlook only? I don't need three contacts every time I save a new one.
    2) I've had problems where a contact being added to the phone doesn't get saved to Outlook. I've saved the contact, there were 3 linked contacts yet it didn't show up in Outlook on the desktop. I then checked the phone again and it was gone from Outlook on the phone too.

    Thanks!

    You can edit your email account settings to turn on or off contact sync.

    Next when you add a new contact, at the top of the screen, you will see 'save to'. Select that and deselect the accounts you don't want.

    I personally keep it local and outlook. I found that saving to sim along with local and outlook caused the annoying double and triple contact issue.

    There was also a time where I let all 3 email accounts and local save my contacts and that was a nightmare as well.

    I took the time to type each contact one by one in excel and started fresh.

    Chose one email account and keep it that way!
