My PC contacts in outlook work fine, but the synced contacts on my X30 will not search on categories and then crashes. Then there are often duplicates after syncing with the PC. I presume some files on the x30 are corrupted.
If I do a hard reset and then sync with my pc how do i stop activesync from wiping all the pc outlook data (because the x30 situation is the most recent) when I connect up. Its done this to me before, luckily i had copied all my outlook to other directories and was able to copy these back to my PC and then re-sync with the X30 ? Is there a better way?
Also if I use X30 backup, can I restore a single ? I can only see how to restore all the backupped files and this can overwrite files which are more uptodate.

In the end I did a Hard Reset and reinstalled everything. works fine now.

...and actve-sync did NOT wipe all my outlook files from my PC this time. I backed them all up by exporting as .pst files anyway just in case.
(Have you noticed that data usually only gets corrupted etc when you havent backed it up.)
