Question about phone "File As" & Thunderbiird "Display"
Posted: Fri Feb 18, 2011 1:23 am
Hi,
I finally got round to upgrading to Thunderbird 3 & BirdieSync 2, but have just noticed something which seems different from the previous version..
I am syncing a PC running Thunderbird 3.1.7 on Vista 64 with an HTC Touch Pro 2 running Windows Mobile 6.1
With BirdieSync 1.7.1.3 I seem to recall that the name entered in the "Display" field of a Thunderbird contacts was used in the "File as" field on my phone, which allowed me to change the default "Sirname, Forename" to "Forname Sirname" as I prefer.
I just added a new contact in Thunderbird and set the Display field to "Forname Sirname", but when I synced it appeared the other way round on my phone.
Changing the order on the phone fixes the problem, and when I resync it remains as I wanted it in Thunderbird, but I'm sure BirdieSync 1.7.1.3 allowed me to do this from the Thunderbird contact.
Am I mis-remembering, or has this changed?
