Htc one sync manager problems
Unfortunately changes can oftne break things that were working before, I've done it myself, it's just a lot more annoying when it makes it out to the customer rather than being picked up by the internal testing wrote:Īndroid saves contacts as Google contacts by default and it'll sync if you have a Google account, which you pretty much have to. A chaneg may have been made to fix issues or, as you eluded to earlier, add support for a new version of a third party application.

I completely understand that thought however (and i'm sticking up for software devs here), just because it is working fine for some users doesn't necessarilly mean it's not 'broken' for others. I think we need to take Google/Gmail completely out of the picture here, it's I wonder why someone has to 'fix' it when it isn't broken because that is so often really irritating. Gmail was never mentioned until you brought it up.

However, I always have to edit the new contact in Gmail and correct the field names as it never picks them up correctly from what Outlook has passed OP is not using Gmail, they are using Outlook.īut syncing with Gmail, I assume, this being an Android device? If it's not Gmail and the contacts are being stored on the phone, it looks as though the issue of the file structure or record layout is the same. When I add a contact, I export it as a vcard and import it into Gmail. I am not sure whether to turn on contact syncing again with HTC Sync Manager - I have around 1000 entries and it is a pain going through them all to put the problem right - Perhaps that's something to do after Christmas wrote:Īs I said, I don''t let anything sync with Outlook. It's strange that Outlook displays mailing addresses with errors in them but not home/business/other addresses so maybe it is Outlook that is wrong. Unfortunately you have no idea that this has happened unless you list the contacts with a column to identify mailing address when you can see a mailing address but not a home, business or other. The error can be all sorts of minor things from a missing Country or County entry to a double space between words on the first line of the address but it looks like Sync Manager is corrupting the entries and Outlook is then flagging the eror and refusing to display them until the error has been corrected. I can either accept the erroneous format or change it, save it and then the address appears in the contact details. If I click on the box business/home/other for which the default mailing address is ticked, I get a pop-up which identifies an error in the way that the address is formatted. One of these addresses is ticked as a default. If I open a contact, there are no addresses listed under home, business or other. However, I can see what has happened from a non-technical point of view. I have already done that as well as removing and re-installing Outlook.
