Motorola Photon 4G :: Outlook Multiplying Contacts?
Sep 20, 2011
I recently synced outlook, google account, facebook, linked-in etc on my phone. In my contacts folder in outlook (on laptop), my contact list shows my google/facebook/phone contacts and multiplys these contacts thousands of times, literally. I'm up to like 170,000 contacts and its the same 80 people. Its as if its syncing over and over on a continuous loop infinitely?

I received a meeting invite via Exchange for work, I opened the notification and the meeting, but I can't find the way to accept, tentative, or reject it. Is this an Android bug or I'm just not seeing the buttons.

never really noticed this as a problem until this past week. When I purchased the phone, I imported my contact list, and that worked out perfectly. Since that time I have not really had the need to save many numbers, but the ones I HAVE saved, I cannot find in my contact list at all...., when I dial their number, the name I typed comes up and they show up in the recent calls list. For example.. I saved the woman who cuts my hair as "Hair Kelly" I can't find it in my contact list, but when I dial her number, it shows up as "Hair Kelly"

I just purchased my phone. I can't view any of my contacts that have only an organization name. I can't view contacts that do not have a first name either. Do I not have a setting correct? Even if I create a new contact I still can't view it.

I am trying to get contacts from my MoPho contacts list in to gmail contacts. I have not installed any apps for syncing to my PC, but would be willing to add apps if necessary.

I sync with Google contacts and my Mac Addressbook contacts which have birthdays input for most people. On my Photon Contacts List, no birthday field exists.

I have several entry's in my phone contacts (set up as google contacts) where they have no first or last name and only and organization name (i.e. ABC Plumbing Supply). The name shows up in my contact list on my phone, however, when I search for these contacts, either with the search function in the contacts app, or the search glass in the bottom right corner, I do not get these contacts in my search query.I saw another thread where someone had to do a hard reset which seemed to fix this. I really would like to avoid that if possible...Another thread said to clear the contact storage cache - mine currently has 0 kb and is not selectable.

I just discovered that the Photon doesn't allow adding local (phone) contacts??? The documentation even says an e-mail account has to be set up before you can add a contact to the phone..
So, every contact I've added as been added as a gmail contact. Somehow I have some local contacts on my phone, I think they came over from my Epic.
The problem with this (other than the obvious requirement to have an e-mail account to put someone's phone number my phone!) is that some applications that synch only look at local contacts. For example, I was trying to figure out why another QIK user that is in my address book wouldn't synch and get the QIK user information, yet some of my others did. I found out that all of the ones that did, are local contacts (that were added back on my Epic and moved to this phone). Any contact added via this phone (thus as a Google contact) won't synch with QIK.
Sure, Moto could point fingers at QIK, but this seems like it could happen with others, as they would certainly expect local contacts to be there.

I have just returned from the Sprint store where they reset my Photon and synced with my old phone after I couldn't get rid of my duplicate contacts. I looked in the store and my phone had single recordings of the contacts, for a total of around 600. I came home, signed in and synced with GMail which only has 3 contacts and was trying to figure out how to send my phone contacts to Gmail. I'm not sure what I did but I suddenly have 1200 contacts on my phone and onl,y 3 contacts in Gmail.

When I started my phone for the first time, it automatically synched my GMail contacts, which I really don't want on the phone. On other Android phones, there was a way to clear the data in Contacts Storage when you went into the app through the app menu. That option is "greyed out" on the Photon, so I can't just erase all the contacts and let my Outlook contacts automatically repopulate.Is there another way to clear Contacts Storage without doing a reset? I"m sure I could get rid of them by starting over, but they I lose all the customization I've already done.

I thought I was imagining this for a while but I can confirm for sure that my Photon loses track of the default number for a contact.
I wernt throught the 5 people in my dialer favorites and selected the default number i.e. work/mobile for each one. Now none of them have a default number selected. Is anyone else experiencing this? It drives me nuts. I have not been able to determine if it is my travel outside of the US and switching numbers that causes it or not. Either way I would not expect that to change my default selections.

My contacts are updated through CompanionLink with my Palm Desktop. There are duplicates of almost all of the contacts after the sync is completed. To remove the duplicates I use Contact Remover. Each duplicate is reviewed with this program and indicates either "Account Motorola" or Account MyGmail Address.
How do I stop this duplication during every update from my desktop?

I do not want my contacts stored ANYWHERE except on my phone and on my laptop (Outlook; not using exchange server).However, when I try to create a new contact, the phone asks me to select a gmail account.It does not offer any option to select something other than a gmail account.I have accessed all menu settings and have limited my gmail accounts to only syncing gmail.There must be an option to create a new contact without linking it to a gmail account.

I had an EVO. it synced all my facebook contacts with my phonebook contacts. So i could look at pics and statuses from my phonebook. Im assuming this phonebook doesnt work that way. it added facebook contacts before i got to add my real contact list. so now there are doubles of some ppl . and some of my contacts that dont have their phone #'s on fb, i cant link them to my contacts like the EVO would. Also, some contacts that i had linked to facebook show up now with a NOTE under them with a HTClink:for their facebook. (if you can understand that) Also the contacts that say they do have a facebook. when i click go to their page. its just goes to mine. so the links must be screwed up.

I have a Photon with the latest software update. I haven't bothered reporting this problem before but it has existed since I got the phone.My contacts are stored on an exchange server. For many of friends, family, and coworkers I have added a contact photo. These contact photos work on:
EVO
EVO 3D
Epic 4g Touch
iPhone
Outlook
iPad
Galaxy
but they do not work on the Photon. By not work, I simply mean that the photos exist on the server, and when I txt or call anyone whose contact has a photo stored, the photo does not show up for almost all of my contacts that have photos in them. Curiously, there are two contacts that display photos, but I don't know why. I would like the photos to be displayed for all contacts like all of my other devices do. i did move my applications from another phone to this phone using a MyBackupPro.

This may be beyond the scope of this forum, but is there a relatively painless way to get the contacts out of iTunes into my Photon? The iPhone died and without it, I can't figure out how to get the contacts to sync. Is it possible to plug in an ipod to get it to work? I've tried different methods that I found online but have been largely unsuccessful.

I just got my photon about a week ago and I have been having some problems. First, when I slide open the phone I more than frequently get a long freeze. It will take sometimes up to 15-20 seconds for the phone to open. I thought it this was fixed from the update, but it started to happen again. Then, when searching for a name in my contacts, it takes upto 20-30 seconds to find the contact if it finds it at all. I know these bugs seem minute, but they are definitely annoying. I am also getting the random restart on my phone.

Everytime I open my contacts my phone freezes and prompts me to force close or wait. When I try to set up a group the point where you add contacts the screen is black and when you press the option button on the phone sends me to the keyboard but doesnt do anything and lags.

syncing a droid X to my outlook contacts via USB cable. I cannot sync over the air.
HTC offers a program that will allow this. Do any of you know if there is a third party/motorola app that will allow this?

I just recently upgraded my Xoom to ICS and linked it up to my companies Outlook using Active Exchange. Everything is working fine except for syncing my contacts. I have subfolders under my Contacts folder (e.g. Work, Personal, etc.) that are not visible/syncing. Is there a way either within the native e-mail client or an app that will let me sync the contacts subfolders? I do not want to root the Xoom. My iPhone does this natively but I'm not sure that ICS can.

I have accumulated over 1400 contacts in Outlook over the last 10 years. So, when I purchased my Droid 2 last year, there was no problem importing them into the phone with the exchange server. But, when the number increased above 1500, I noticed that the phone only accommodates 1487. note that I don't import contacts from other sources like Google or a social networking site.

Is there an easy way to sync Outlook contacts and calendar without Exchange? This is the only problem I have encountered with my new Bionic. The calendar synced, but I have lost my categories, etc. The contacts synched, but I seem to have three of everything (???). Is there a way to delete all the contacts on the phone and start over? I find it hard to believe someone has not come up with an App to make a direct USB sync with the PC, given the Extensive use of Outlook...
