Hello all,
On my android phone I had a memory fault and I had to go restore factory settings. Before doing
that, I saved a copy of my contact list on a memory card. I also synchronized my contactlist (so
I thought) with google contacts. After I rebooted the phone with everything erased and back to
factory settings, I set up again my connection with my gmail account and google contacts. I then
synchronized google contacts. It was a good thing I had backed up the contact list separately
also, because several of my new contacts had not made it into google contacts on the previous
(before reset) sync.
So, I restored my contact list from the saved file to get all the new contacts I had (there were
about 15 of them). However, there was a problem, as now all except those new contacts had 2
entries for ever person.
So, I went to google and used the feature they have to search and remove duplicate contacts. This
worked great for my android phone, and my android phone is happy again.
However, my Kmail contact list is not happy now, since it synchronized with google before I
deleted the duplicate contacts. My kmail contact list still has duplicate contacts for every
single entry (except the 15 new ones).
I am wondering, how do I get kmail to re-synchronize with google so that it will remove all those
duplicate contacts?
