Hi,
i use goglemail and own a Tattoo. When i sync my Tattoo with the Google contacts, there will be also all "mail only" contacts synced. So i have all the mail adresses under the contacts section on my Tattoo - not really clear. Is there the possibility to deactivate the auto-sync function in Googlemail or apply a filter on the contacts on the Tattoo?
It is not fine to see every Ebay or Company upport contact on the Tattoo.
I support all my contacts in Outlook - but one place to support is more than comfortable.
The Milestone ought to have a function to show only the Google contacts that where created by the user - is there something like that for the Tattoo? How does you manage the contacts?
kind regards
srkonus
I have the same problem as you my friend :-/ but no solution yet.

My solution:
if i think i wiil need the email address in the future, i save the contact by the name, like everyone else. if i think i will never use the email address again, i delete it. I don't want kaos in my PC google contacts just as i don't want kaos in my phone. I save all my important emails (money transactions info and similar), so i can still find the email addresses in the archives should there be need for that.
I see how that could not be the perfect solution for everyone, but I assure you, it is working very well.
Mmhh,
not the badest option. At this time i save the contacts in outlook and deleted the unused contacts in google. But now i missed importend mail adresses - this will be filled up in the near future.
I hope that the adresses will not trash my phone contacts.

There is an application "CT Live Sync" may fit your need, but I never try that since my WLM is good for nothing but hotmail. Mind try it out and share with us your test result?

Later this year, Windows Live will turn on Exchange ActiveSync support. This will make it easy to sync with Android and iPhones.
Until then, you can't sync with Live other than POP3 access to your email. I simply setup a gmail account and import all the contacts over and setup Gmail server to fetech emails from my hotmail account and push down to my phone via GMail.
ok, thanks for your info, i guess i will wait until full Exchange ActiveSync support...
greetings...
Dear Friends..
I bought LG Optimus mobile in the "word to speech" icon is missing, and could u pls help me how to Sync the contacts which is in Outlook to my Mobile??
I was using HTC Touch HD..is it possible to update the PIM Backup in Optimus?
Pls help me.. thanQ
The Optimus 7 will only support the Syncing of outlook contacts through an Internet Exchange account.
The phone no longer uses Activesync (thank god) to sync to your PC, so syncing with a local Outlook install will not work.
There is a MSKB on how to import your contacts (a one-time deal) here though, although I have not tried it: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2454811
Thanks man, that saved me a lot of time. I started to sweat when i saw there is no way of directly syncing contacts from outlook to phone.
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?

Hi there,
I recently flashed my HD2 with WP7, but am trying to update to the latest WP7 release.
I was wondering if there was a program out there that could backup messages and contacts that I've accumulated over the last week or so.
Your help is much appreciated, thank you!
there is till now no software to take backup of contacts or sms . But you CAN take the backup of contacts is by syncing it with your email id . Let suppose you use hotmail just sync the contacts with it . Its the best backup and after that you can retrieve them on the new windows by just syncing hotmail again . Remmber for hotmail sync you need to have an activation code but for gmail or yahoo you dont need them .
Yeah I gathered the contacts thing recover whereas the sms's don't...oh well, nevermind I guess! Thanks!
