Linking Contact Information

Most people now maintain multiple email accounts, social networking logins, and other similar account information. For example, a Facebook account login name might differ from a corporate email account login because they are maintained separately and for different groups of people.

This device can synchronize with multiple accounts (such as Facebook, Twitter, MySpace, Corporate email, Google, or T-Mobile). When you synchronize your phone with those accounts, each account creates a separate contact entry in the Contacts list.

If one of your contacts (Amy Smith) has a regular email account that you maintain in Gmail, but also has a Facebook account under her maiden and married name, as well as a Yahoo! chat account, when you merge those accounts into your Contacts list you can link all of her entries and view the information in one record.

Linking contact information makes sending messages easy. You can select any account email address or information all from one screen, versus searching multiple, individual screens to locate the desired account information.

Next time you synchronize your phone with your accounts, any updates contacts make to email account names, email addresses, etc. automatically update in your contacts list.

For more information about synchronizing accounts, see “Get Friends” on page 62.

From the Home screen, touch .

Touch a contact name (the name you want to link to another entry).

Note

: typically this is the same contact with

a different name or account information.

Press ➔

Touch the second contact entry (the entry in which to link).

Link contact

The second contact is now linked with the first and the account information is merged into one screen.

Note:

The information is still maintained in both entries, but displays in one record for easier viewing when you link the contacts.

Touch the linked contacts to view the contact information you linked. The contacts and information displays with an icon next to the contact name to indicate what type of account information is contained in the entry.

Unlinking a Contact

From the Home screen, touch .

Touch a contact name (the account name from which you want to unlink an entry).

Note

: typically this is the same

contact with a different name or account information.

Touch

<number> linked contacts

from the Linked Contacts

area.

Touch the minus sign next to entry in which you want to unlink. The contacts are “unlinked” and no longer display in the merged record screen.

Marking a Contact as Default

When you use applications such as the Voice Dialer or other messaging type applications, the application needs to know which information is primary (default) in a contact entry list. For example, when you say “Call John Smith”, if you have three phone records for John Smith, the Voice dialer is looking for the “default” number or entry.

The Mark as default option marks one entry in a contact record to use as the default. This comes in handy when you have multiple entries for the same person (see Linked contacts).

From the Home screen, touch .

Touch a Contact entry.
