After syncing my mobile with meomotoo (mostly names with phone numbes) and my mail client address book (mostly names with email adresses) I ended up with 171 duplicates.

I'd love to see a "merge" function which would (semi-) automatically merge them into one contact with name + pone number + mail address.

Thx,
Martin

Sorry but no merge fonction automatically because you risk losing data ...

I would love to see this function, I would be happy with manual selection.

I also use ZYB as a second back up, the function is implemented there and it is most helpful

It's easy to merge duplicate contacts in windows live and gmail, why not here too?

Surely that's the whole point of Memotoo? If you have data from multiple sources, no one item is correct, they all are in different ways, they're just separate rather than as one.

I want my contact data from Windows Live, Nokia mobile (OVI - what crap that is), Facebook, Linkedin and gmail all merged into one. That's phone numbers from my phone, email addresses from Windows live and gmail and pictures, birthdays and other info from facebook and linkedin.
Surely that's possible?

I'm also having a nightmare getting my multiple ical calendars all on the one update to my phone. Outlook works with OVI for contacts but not for the calendar it would appear. Surely it's easier than I'm finding it to get memotoo to sync that too?

I do pay for this service, so I expect some level of compatibility. So far I'm not getting anything that I couldn't get through the crap Nokia OVI suite.

I agree that automatic merge would be dangerous. But this could be done the way gmail does it, by adding all the fields in one unique account and asking the user to confirm.

example, two contacts:
Simon Martinez
simon.martinez@mail.com

Simon Martinez
simon@yahoo.com
00123456789

become:
Simon Martinez
simon.martinez@mail.com
simon@yahoo.com
00123456789

Duplication detection works fairly well, adding this bit would be great!

Keep doing a great job!

OK I have the functionnality to merge the contacts

It is not a automatic merge, Memotoo will propose to you the merge and you will modify what you want.
This functionality is avalaible with the "list" view:

Instead of merging, memotoo tells me there is already a contact with this name please choose a new first or last name

It also tells me this name already exists! Of course it does it's a duplicate!

I have to alter the name in the drop down box, although it is the same name, then it accepts it.

When I re-check for duplicates again the name appears again, I have merged for the second time and it has worked
