Is it possible to disable the Sync contacts feature on MSN Messenger Live?
I have 170 contacts on MSN and I don't want all their e-mail addresses in my Mobile Contact book (where I just want phone numbers).
Thank-you.

Hi,
I'm using push-email with the company I work for sync'ing my email, tasks, calendar and contacts (business contacts).
I'd like also to try and use the new windows live (msn messenger) but I am looking for a way NOT to sync the msn messenger contacts with my device.
The problem is, the device will sync all my personal contacts on msn with the company's exchange server and I cannot share that with the company's exchange.
Is there a way to filter/disable/limit the sync so my msn contacts will not be sent with the rest of the contacts to the exchange server?
just wondering if anybody could shed any light on why when after a rom change i connect to msn messenger and it puts all my msn contacts in my phone contacts list?
presumably this is wasteing space on my phone?
thanks
Only Windows Live Messenger syncs your MSN contact list with your phones contact list, MSN messenger does not. Currently there is not way to stop it from doing this.
Hi,
i snyced my msn contacs on my phone, but msn wasn't smart enough to just add the e-mail to my phone contacts but created new one.
The problem is that some of my friends have e-mail that has not their name in it: for example sweetcandy3000 (just an example, I don't have the e-mail as friend)
I wanted to combine the msn and phone contacts on Outlook, but the msn contacts aren't snyced to pc.
Is there a faster way to add the e-mail or combine both contacts? Because doing it manually takes to long, and I read deleting msn contacts on phone also delets them from your messenger?

install dashwire then sync then go to dashwire.com [needs a account to sync] then copy and paste then sync again
ok, thx for that
I don't like dashwire too much, is there an other solution th the problem? Otherweise I will do the dashwire trick
Title pretty much explains!
With facebook and secondary email accounts, under settings you can disable them from importing contacts into WP7's contact area... but with the main Windows Live ID you use to activate the phone, there's no tick box to disable the importing of messenger contacts.
Now my phonebook has like 300 entries of people who don't even have phone numbers... help?! Please!
Yeah! I've got the solution for you, i run into this problem as soon as i got my activation code and got my hotmail account up and running, all you got to do is go to your mail account and delete all the contacts in the contacts page then re-sync your live account from your phone and *bam* unwanted contacts are gone!

Then all your contacts store in Hotmail are gone?
I have just posted this against another similar post, would it work?
I posted this elsewhere and didnt get any real work arounds.....
(I returned my OE WP7 and returned to HD2 on WM6.5).
However, just a thought.....
MyPhone is only for WM6.5 but using ActiveSync you can sync mail, contacts, calendar & tasks with Outlook. I read on the Microsoft forum that you can download Hotmail Contacts to Outlook, and export from Outlook to Hotmail.
If I were to return to WP7, which no doubt I will do:
Contacts:
I would Sync WM6.5 with Outlook, then upload them to the Hotmail account I would be using on WP7. I remember (and may stand corrected) that when you register the Hotmail account on the device, the Contacts are automatically downloaded.
WM6.5 using Windows Live allows you to download Hotmail contacts to my phone, so I guess they would also sync.
Doesnt cure my original issue that I wanted my Phone and Hotmail contacts seperate. I may have to create an additional Hotmail account for that?
Calendar:
On my version of Outlook, I can have two calendars showing - one for the PC which is synced to my phone and one which is my Hotmail. I havent found a way to automatically sync them, but its easy tp drag an appointment from say my PC calendar to Hotmail and therefor on to WP7.
Regarding texts, theres no way like MyPhopne, just copy what you can to your sim card I am afraid.
Does that sound like it might work?
