Subject: Why do entries in my Address Book 'touched' often?
Hi,

I have been using iSync for many years with various Nokia mobile  
phones. One of the strategies i have with any sync software is to  
review changes upon each sync, especially for address book. I do this  
by creating an address book smart folder that show any changes to my  
address book that have happened in the a) last week and in the b) last  
half a day.

I maybe have 1 card that has changed in the last week, but i see 23  
changes in the address book for the last week and 4 is the last half a  
day.

Oh, now I have just downloaded 2.1.1 and my address book has 59 in the  
last half a day and 74 in the last week.

What is going on, and why are so many of my contacts being 'touched'.  
As far as i can tell no data has changed, but it's lots of contacts to  
review to verify exactly if all is ok.

II have used .Mac for the last two or three years and I have never  
seen this before

Thanks

Bill

Without seeing a detailed log I can't be 100% sure of what's happening
on your system, but my best guess is that Google updating the
"updated" value of a contact to whom you've sent an email which causes
that contact to be pulled from Google on the next sync and "touched"
in the Apple Sync Services database. We've seen this behavior from
Google before but it's not consistent.

If you'd like us to look at your log, please create a problem report
(Advanced > Create report) and email it to supp...@spanningsync.com
along with a detailed description of the issue.

Thanks,
Charlie

Hello,

I haven't sent this happen again. Maybe it has settled down now, or  
been fixed in the update.

I'll keep an eye out and  if it changes again i'll email the detailed  
report

Thanks

Bill
