Use the "Join contact" function to combine any duplicates into one contact file.

I have a gmail account - i do not use this for my emails or contacts but phone asked for it and i added it

i have a hotmail ( now called outlook) account and i do use this for my email and contacts

i have somehow got a hotmail app on the phone plus my hotmail emails come through to a place just called email ( white envelope with what looks like a white rose)

i am sure all this is confusing my new phone - S3

i have just moved from broken iphone and i am confused too.....

please help me as i have email details from hotmail and facebook contacts and no one has phone numbers!

Go back to Kies (as in your other question) and wait for Kies to identify the phone. Run the troubleshooter if necessary. Once phone is connected pull all your contacts in from iTunes and they will sync to the phone. You can choose to hide contacts without phone numbers in the contacts app settings.

I too have duplicate contacts - but only on the iPad version (iPhone version seems fine). The iCloud version of Contacts is good, and have tried deleting iPad app and reinstalling - no good. Any thoughts?

I think this would be better asked in the Apple section as it appears to be a question about iphone/ipad cotacts?
