Address Groups Are Merged After Sync
Please Login to Remove!
FYI everyone ....
I found a merged contact group in my Mac address book following sync with PocketMac. The new 'merged' group contained contacts that were common to 3 three independent groups. The contacts in the new merged group were stripped from the independent groups.
I did this test ....
I created 3 new contact groups in my Mac address book: Basic, Bat & Bazooka. I added 5 new contacts to each group as follows:
Basic ... DELTA, ECHO, Alpha, Bravo, Charlie
Bat ... DELTA, ECHO, Foxtrot, Golf, Hotel
Bazooka ... DELTA, ECHO, India, Juliet, Kilo
Notice that contacts Delta & Echo are common to all three groups.
After sync'ing I found that I had 4 new contact groups:
Basic
Basic,Bat,Bazooka
Bat
Bazooka
See attached file for post-sync screen shot.
Group 'Basic, Bat, Bazooka' contained the contacts that are common to all 3 groups, which are Delta & Echo. Meanwhile, Delta and Echo were removed from the three other groups.
Anyone know how I prevent this from happening in the future?
