Missing importand contact field

Post by ShawnColorado »

I love your program, but for some reason when syncing with Thunderbird I loose an important contact field. It is "FILE AS." This is the field that allows my WM6 device to show the name on the screen. I sync my contacts fine, but it is missing the name? How can I get that field into Thunderbird via BirdiSync?

Hello,

Usually, this field is synchronized from the Thunderbird contact "Display" field (right under the "Last name" field in a Thunderbird card). This field can also be automatically generated by a combination of "Last name & First Name" or "Company" if you selected the option "Fill Pocket Outlook Display name..." in "BirdieSync options/Address book/Miscellaneous". I suggest you to have a look to BirdieSync help file.
If you have a problem with a particular card, could you send me a snapshot of this card to support(at)birdiesync.com ?
Thanks.
Birdy
