messenger deleting contacts by itself - Touch HD General

If i login on msn messenger on my phone it is deciding to delete some of my contacts... (so they come off my msn on the pc too)
I have no idea why it is doing this as i copied my msn contacts to the relevant contacts in my phone book and selected the option in messenger to combine contacts with messenger...
Its really starting to hack me off as I'm having to re-add contacts all the time

Nice to hear
Actually... same here... wtf

There is no way of stopping it from doing this i'm afraid... It's part of the software. It's been designed to be part of the system, managing contacts, and emails.

Live Messenger and synchronizing contacts

I've tried searching for this, but the threads are quite long...
Does Live Messenger copy all my messenger contacts into my Outlook contacts?
With all the versions I've downloaded and tried... Yes. As long as it keeps doing this, it's useless to me.
But some people say they use Messenger without syncing contacts, which as far as I can see, is impossible. So I don't get it.
CORRECTION: you can turn off the sync in options, but messenger syncs any way.
b.t.w:
I noticed it wont SYNC both ways...
You cant use MSN Messenger without syncing the contacts. this is a very huge pain in the a$$. i was trying agile mesenger but they since starting charging for it and the latest build doesnt work very well with the TyTN. when you press enter it starts a voice message instead of sending he message.

Yes, I've also heard this, but cannot find a solution to what they're doing. Syncing contacts is just not an option for me.
Well... it was worth a try.
is there any way to remove some of the functionality and limit to only messenger for example? the search and mail are irrelevant to me.

help please - I need to recover deleted contacts

I formated my PC and all contacts are gone. when I plugged in my wizard I I was so stupid and checked the option to sync contacts without setting the options(by default its set to make changes on the pocket PC). So, all my contacts are gone.
Is there any way to restore them ?
I have WM6 underground.
thank you
wow... that was really dumb.
(i did that too before)
if you were using wm6... wm6 uses windows live messenger. if you were using windows live messenger it syncs contacts to their server. if your contacts were synced they should be somewhere in your msn contacts. log in to hotmail and look at your contact list and see if they are still there.
if they are DON'T SYNC IT
it will erase the ones on msn if you do. but at least you still have them.

yeah that happened to me. but fortunately i sync everything with everything so it was somewhere i just had to look. if you've ever used yahoo go! then it synced with yahoo and everything is in yahoo. if you use thunderbird it is synced with thunderbird. just check everything you use that has an address book.
good luck
Thank you very much hiimcliff for all advices,
I know that I have a full backup in some cd from previous blueangel...but question how to retreive contacts ... :S

Hi hbushi,
It will depend on the way they are stored on your backup cd. If you have the pim.vol, then there is hope...

Messenger live now all my contacts haev gone

Hi,
Running messenger live on wm5 as other people have mentioned it add all your contacts on msn to your contacts address book.
I went through and deleted all of these and now it has just deleted all my contacts from MSN.
Just logged in on my home computer and watched MSN horrified as it slowly removed them one by one.
Is there any way of retrieiving them?
Thanks,
Dave.

how can i remove all these contacts from my phone book? please dont say i have to do 1 by 1... plus i hate my hotmail account, to much darn spam!
don't start deleting them from your phone book! they will vanish from windows live too!
you need to signout of windows live on your phone and the contacts and email account will be removed.
