Contacts All Screwed Up. Please help.
- For some reason today, all of my contacts on my BB got messed up. I didn't sync anything or upgrade anything. I texted my wife at work, and noticed that when I received a text, it said it was from my bank, but it was my wife's message. So, very confused, I went into my contacts folder and noticed that I have several contacts that got multiplied and some that seem to be morphed into others. I have no idea how this happen. I have it set up on Desktop Manager to sync to my phone through MS Outlook, but when I tried to, it made a noise and didn't go through with the process. I have tried a battery pull and anything else I can think of, but nothing has worked thus far. If you can help me, I'd be very grateful! Thanks in advance!06-08-10 12:54 PMLike 0

If your Outlook contacts are still good, I'd probably delete my BB contacts and just re-sync them over if possible. (May want to do a DM backup first).
Using a secondary backup for your contacts is good advice as well one you get it working again.Last edited by PaintDrinkingPete; 06-08-10 at 02:12 PM.

But normally it goes physically through my 200 some contacts one by one, but it didn't do that this time, and it didn't give me a message saying there was an error. It just made a noise and went back to the previous screen. I will try your advice and delete my contacts on my BB. Good call. Thank you all!06-08-10 01:40 PMLike 0
