after I updated to 2.1 all my contacts dissapeared. I understand this is a common problem.
1) How could I have avoided this problem?
2) How can I get my contacts back? They are not in my google contacts.
3) Is there any way to turn off the sync order in Ericsson Sync so that the latest update does NOT overwrite the other. The trouble is that if I am to add all my lost contacts "by hand" in Ericsson Sync, and thereafter delete the few contacts still on my phone, then the deletion is the latest event - and that will overwrite my additions in Ericsson Sync... I am really bothered by this Ericsson Sync - I can´t really se the point of it, have I missed something?
I am the proud owner of a X10. When I first used ericsson sync everything worked as described, no problems and all my contacts were transferred from Outlook to X10. However, I now try to sync again from outlook to X10 and the extra contacts refuse to be transferred, either on the phone or on the website
I have XPERIA X10 mini. After synhronization everything exept contracts appears on my personal page in Sony Ericsson Sync place. I did everything as was recommended in instructions, several times: by hand and automatically, but without result in any case...
Reset my phone to the default settings - I seem to have lost all my contacts - do u no if they r still on my phone somewhere? I say this because I can see peoples names, numbers in my messages.
I have a W980 and just updated the software on my phone by following the prompts when I was using the Sony Ericsson PC suite. Somehow it wiped all my contacts and text messages. Help me recover them!
I tried to sync my contacts to my mac using the Blackberry desktop software, I now have no contacts left on my phone. I didn't back up my phone before doing the sync and the contacts aren't on my mac either.Some contacts appear under recent calls and texts however there are no contacts in my address book.
I recently lost an iPhone 3GS and replaced it with an old iPhone 3GS (replacement). The replacement required a software update but said that the previous phone contacts would synch after the software update. I have since completed a software update during which an error occurred, but the software eventually completed it's update. I now can't find my contacts from the previous phone. Should I restore to the original settings? Are my contacts stored on my Mac somewhere within iTunes?
Made a very big mistake while syncing my Curve 8320 and lost ALL my contacts. I have more than one Blackberry connected onto BB desktop software and mind you that both phones have different contacts on them. I only backed up one of them prior to today and I had the option of syncing all my known contacts from my computer onto whatever phone that would be plugged in turned on. So basically I did not make a backup copy of my Curve 8320 and whatever contacts I have for my other BB has overwritten what was on it. Is there any way to recovery those lost contacts?!
I had 3GS and upgraded to 4S and gave my 3GS to my brother to use. Now my brother changed the phone name and deleted the contacts and as I was syncing on the cloud, his deletions started reflecting mine. Please let me know what do I do to get back all my contacts.
Synced my phone with my gmail account last night and after doing this all my contacts were lost.Im sure this is an easy fix but I am not familiar with the phone. I make sure that the filters were off so its not that.If I go into "options" and go into "contact lists" it has my email address and says that I have "89" entries.But the phone will not display any of my contact entries.
I sync my phone trying to do a backup.. but instead it has wiped everything on my iphone.I have tried to re-import sim contact but that is very few, i had over 200 contacts on this phone.All pictures cant be found.I've searched all over iTunes to see if it hidden in groups.I've searched outlook.. there are no contacts sync on there either.
I have a PC, iPhone and iPad on which contacts, reminders and calendar are turned on in iCloud.
Everything used to work fine. I missed a meeting on Thursday because it did not snych into me iPhone. I noticed contact changes were not synching. I turned of Contact Synching on the iPhone, selected keep contact on iPhone.
All contacts were erased on the iPhone. Turned synch back on and nothing downloads to the iPhone I checked iCloud on the web and the contacts are there.
How to sync or rather resync facebook contacts back to your XPRT's contact list if lost. My son deleted my contacts and when I restored them from online back ups I noticed my facebooks were not there. Trying to remove the account to resync would not work. I received an error with each attempt. Like many users I use the Facebook app from Google's market. Even when I would force close the app it would still not remove my face book account. You cannot resync unless you remove the account. Open the facebook app and simply sign out of the app. do not close it but sign out by hitting the menu icon to the left of your home button on the touch scene. This will allow you to remove the Facebook account. It will warn you on sign out that all your Facebook data on your phone will be lost if you sign out. That is okay as soon as you log in and resync and reopen the app it will all come back.
Once you have logged out remove your account by going to My Accounts in the app drawer or from your phones settings through the menu button. Resettling your phone is not necessary but can be done at this point if you wish. Either way after this point you must add your facebook account back by going back to My Accounts. Once you add the email and password and it goes back to your accounts screen you will see two (2) facebook accounts. Click one and if it pulls up a blue and white screen to log into the facebook app stop. Hit the back button and click the other facebook account. The one you want will have a black Motorola XPRT system windows that says "sync contacts" just hit that sync button and it should as long as facebook and your MOTOBLUR app on facebook are both working resync you contacts adding them to your phones contacts.
I updated the address and email information of all my contacts via the sony ericsson site but when I sync it to my phone the data doesn't show up on my X10. Has anyone experienced this problem and found a solution? It would be much appreciated!
I have a Blackberry Curve 8530 which I was working fine with 250 contacts and 20 memos. I just updated my software to 5.0 1596 and when I was synching my blackberry with my computer I got the following message " The following changes from address book microsoft outlook will be applied t your device data in address book - 233 additions". When I click accept the sync stops and I got an error message - 0x80040fb3 and I only have 4 contacts and no memos.
I've just upgraded to the Z5. My own number on my contacts list is set at 00 0000000000 and it won't let me edit it to change it! I've worked out how to manually sync contacts profile pics from FB onto my contacts list, but it won't let me do it on my own contact details. (Basically, in text messaging, pics of my contacts are there, but I can't link mine to do the same).
i again lost all my contacts again in the same way as i lost them earlier. my phone got hang and then there were no contacts in my phone. this time i had the backup of my contacts.
I updated my phone since it had become really slow and I was facing a lot of problems with it.. I used the Backup and restore app and took backup of my data. After the update, however, when I tried to restore my data, I get the error msg that the ' Cannot read selected backup file'I have lost a lot of very important contacts n msgs..
tried to download photos. Prompted to update phone. Prompted to download Back up doc. Did backup successfully. When Restored - all of my contacts have gone !! hen I check thro my text messages I can find contacts beginning with A B C L and M.
How can I sync the calender and contact in my at&t C905a to the new at&t Xperia X10? On AT&T's site,it says to use PC Suite,which I already have in my notebook pc to back up and sync with Outlook in my pc. Is this true? And why can't I sync using SE Sync? Is it because the phone (C905a) is locked out?
Just upgraded to 2.1 . However , i lost majority of my contacts . For example , in messaging , it only displays their numbers and it does not show up in contacts list . I have all my contacts in SE sync however i cannot log in . When i try to log in into SE sync from phone , after typing username and password and pressing ( touching ) log in , nothing happens .
I've just re-updated my X10 Mini to see if it would run any smoother. Since then I cannot access the Sony Ericsson sync. I've tried adding the account in settings > Accounts & sync > Add account > Sony Ericsson sync, it goes to the Sont Ericsson login screen and will not go past that after I have enterewd my details, or5 it redirects me to the login to the website dashboard. I'm getting no opportunity to authorise the account and now I cannnoot sync my contacts as I don't use the Google account for that.
Today I went to update my X10. While at work it wouldn't allow me to as it insisted I connected it to a computer. So at home I got the USB cabled hooked up to my Linux Laptop and then discovered it had to be a windows computer.Anyway, I got it hooked to a Windows computer and the update process began. I followed every instruction and set all tickboxes for backup.After unplugging this and plugging it back in and rebooting here and there, it finally reached the restore process.I left it restoring for a while. When I came back to it, it said something had crashed. I don't know what as I'd just woken from a nap.But, it seems all my applications are restored. Yet my gmail account & Facebook account have become disassociated from my phone and all my contacts no longer have any names or pictures. I opened the contacts/phone book and the list is completely empty. tried to import contacts but it says it cannot find any anywhere.
