    Red face Outlook Contacts

    When I imported Outlook contacts from my desktop using CompanionLink, they were listed alphabetically by first name. I want to change this so they are listed by last name. Any suggestions?

    Manually switch the first and last names....

    There is no option to do this....yet.

    cbulkley this was an oversight. We'll be updating the PC side software within a day or two to fix this issue with our sync products. The issue is that with certain Android based phones, the name field is "full name" only, and does not allow sorting or searching by last name.

    Look for a download by December 23, which will have an option to automatically reverse the names for the data transfer.
