Question:

Issue Syncing Address Book with Y! Go 2.0?

Hi !

I've just installed the 2.0 version of Y! Go (I used to be a 1.0 user also ;), and now I'm having a annoying issue...

I have all my contacts in Outlook, Phone and Yahoo.

In Outlook, the contacts are shown as "First Last", which also makes them to be shown the same way in my Phone.

After I've installed Y! Go 2.0, some (not all. Odd?) of my contacts, are now displayed "Last, First".

If I change them back to "First Last" in Outlook, and then sync with my phone, phone goes Ok!

But if I sync again with Yahoo, they go back to "Last, First", both in Outlook and Phone...

Never had this issue with 1.0... :(

And it's like 200 entries in this situation, so deleting and creating them again is not a good option.

Any ideas?

Running WM 5.0 on a Mio A701.

Cheers,

Hugo

  1. thought this was an interesting point and may be the reason we ar e all up in arms-

    <<<<

    The settings and content you selected in your Yahoo! account on your PC will automatically apply to your mobile experience—and vice-versa. If you’ve told Yahoo! which stocks to track, teams to follow, locations to remember, and that sort of thing, your phone will know all about it. All your personal info, including your contacts and email, remain in sync with your Yahoo! Web account.** So even if you lose your phone, you won’t lose your data.

    SO IF YOU CO AND CHANGE THE WHOLE YAHOO ADDRESSBOOK  TO FIRSTNAME  

    FIRST  THEN IT MAY WORK FOR YOU

    ok
