Contacts. Take it from the top

To eliminate duplicates, touch a contact that is a duplicate, touch menu, then link contacts, then find the duplicate and touch it. The info on the two contacts is combined.

@GolfOX-

I am running DajaOffice on my DroidX and PC and trying to work with Outlook as my main contact list. However I have notice that my phone is linking outlook contacts, facebook and I am guessing something else all together giving me multiple contact listing for the same person and not always the most current. I have about 180 contacts in my Outlook and my phone is saying I have almost 400. When I look at the contact list I am getting multiples of people and they are not all on FaceBook (or other social media). I am running Outlook as my home email and I am not interested in changing (due to a on going job search).

Q1 Is this a case where the phone is trying to put Google, Outlook, FaceBook, (and who knows what else) all together on the same list and not recognizing that they are the same person?

Q2 Is there a way to edit this list via the computer, working that much on that little screen is going to drive me nuts?

Q3 How would I set it up so that I don't have this problem in the future? I am also wanting to be sure that when I enter contacts on the phone they will show up in Outlook.

Thanks in advance for the help
Mike

I have not found a way to get the various contact groups to merge on their own. I have looked through the forums a lot. You obviously are working and using youe phone a lot more than I. Good luck.
