MSN Live importing contacts

I just logged into my MSN with my tytn.
Now it automatically imported all my email contacts into my phones contact list.
The problem is I have 2 identical names of everyone I know that have a
phone number and email address. I sync'ed my phone and then the email
addresses disappeared until I log into MSN again and then I get duplicate names again. Is there a way to combine the two seperate identical names into one contact name folder? I cannot be the only one with this problem.
Thanks anyone for some help.

[Q] Multiple Mailboxes

I have an HTC HD2 and I have a question about multiple mailboxes. I want to connect to my business account which is an Exchange server and my personal account which I use POP3. This works fine but is there a way to separate contacts, calendar and notes. I only want my personal items on the phone and the business items on the phone and the server. Is there an app for that?

Outlook 2010 syncing issues with HTC HD2

Hi All,
I have been searching the web this afternoon and cannot find any resolution to an issue I am having and its driving me bonkers.
I have recently upgraded to Office 2010 32bit (including Outlook) and within this there is a very clever "Birthdays" view of the calendar which appears to be separate to the normal calendar. So on the PC I can see all the birthdays as all day events. However when I sync with the phone it doesn't bring this information across!
I have tried just copying the bookings from that calendar into the "normal" calendar, but it errors. I presume this must be because they are not actual calendar entrys and just created on the fly.
I am syncing using Windows Mobile Device Center via USB to my phone.
Any suggestions would be most appreciated, as otherwise I am highly likely to miss birthdays as my memory is shocking!
Have you installed OutlookConnector.exe for synchronizing Outlook with Hotmail or GoogleMail?
Do a right mouse click on birthday calendar and choose options to see to which account your birthday calendar is connected to.
For me it is connected to my Hotmail account.
Birthday calendar is not a part of the Outlook file system which is synchronized with your device, sorry.
And again I'm sorry I can copy birthday calendar entries by drag and drop or copy/paste.
The birthday view is just a view. A way to present the information in the calendar.
Built-in apps on phones typically does not support a birthday view. You can look for Pocket Informant (which is now free on WM, but the link is not easy to find), which offers lots of different views.
Or just conduct a search on birthday.
Ah thanks for the responses guys. Yes you are correct its taking it from Hotmail for some reason! Also, slightly bizzarely I just tried again to copy the birthdays across and this time its working. Very wierd.
I will also check out that pocket informant you mentioned about, keeping them split seems good if I can manage that.

Contacts-Calender sync

Hey there,
since the WP7 is designed for sync between FB, Outlook, Phone adress book, calendar, Twitter aso I was really wondering how about sync between contacts of any source to the calendar?
The point in detail:
Wherever you got some contacts you add, put them manual in the phone, use facebook sync, why is there no sync to the calendar? I mean, honestly, what for do people add so many information in their contacts like especially their birthday. So why is there no function to add these birthdays with an alarm to the phone calendar? Imho it's quite stupid to have the information in the contact, but no alarm for the birthday - so you need to create a reminder for each contact you want again by manual. I'm quite sure NOBODY checks out the contact details for birthdays, so it is meaningless to put this information there anyway.
Is there any solution for this? Maybe another reminder application for reading the birthdays out of contact details?
Furthermore, wouldn't it be nice to have got a navi software that can directly find the adresses of contacts in the phonebook? I mean you cannot even copy paste them...I think since the outlook contacts use xml it shouldn't be so hard to be implemented. Furthermore so far I never see any navi software that has got more than just 20 favorites...
Thanks!
If you add your contacts to Windows live, then their b'days are actually displayed as whole day events in your calendar. It even shows up in the lock screen. In calendar settings there is an options to turn off Windows Live Birtday calendar. Hope this is what you were looking for.
re
ah I see, so you need windows live. Thanks for the advice!

[Q] Where are contacts stored, and best way to consolidate?

I'm trying to organise the contacts my mums first Android phone (Moto G), need help please!
Problem: there seems to be a mix of contacts: the ones from her Hotmail (email addresses) and the ones from her SIM (phone numbers).
What is the best way to consolidate? And where would the consolidated contacts get stored - in the phone's Google (gmail) account or in her Hotmail account?
I have Googled this and seen some ways to consolidate in Gmail (e.g. http://www.beginandroid.com/import2.shtml), but as per my question above, is Gmail the place I want to be doing this or is it Hotmail or elsewhere?
Thanks VERY MUCH in advance!
