MJoan,

I had the same issue, I got all my contacts messed up and had to erase everything on both ends (Bberry and Google Contacts). I never saw Google do such a poor job with a new product. the last two products from this company are starting to look like Microsoft’s – Chrome is not too good, and this contact sync is really unreliable. Blah….

So i tried this sync. Lost all of my contacts, dont have an option for blackberry wins on sync.

So now since i haven’t been home to syne my blackberry i have lost everything and have no way to get anything bacak. Im beyond furious. I hate you so much goodl, you think that thay would be smarter then this i guess not!

I find the Google sync to be too bug-ridden. Instead, I jumped to CompanionLink. More features, reliable sync and free phone support. Woohoo!

Now how about something for Windows Mobile… care to throw us a bone guys? No calendar/contact sync, no google talk, and no nice web apps like the iPhone.

Well, I found the answer: this issue is only for non English BlackBerries. Just switch the language to English in My Google and you are done

Well, it’s a reported issue. Let’s hope they’ll fix it right away http://groups.google.com/group/google-mobile-help-blackberry/browse_thread/thread/f2f9e6e6bdfbd8c4

Thst’d odd: even though I have the previous version now I get the message “Device not supported” (a 8300 Curve) :O

James forgot to ask can you keep us posted on how well the sync goes in the next few days of use. Thanks.

I use Google Calendar sync with my BB and once it made copies of the same appointments. So now what I did is made sure that under the options you choose “On Conflicts” Handheld Wins. This way no matter what your BB is wins on sync. I might give it a try but I will back up my BB then try it, so if for some reason it doesn’t work or makes or deletes contacts I can just restore from backup. I have over 600 contacts which are for my job. I sure don’t want this messed up.

I think I’ll hold off on this one. It’s one thing for an occasional calendar screwup, but I can’t chance Google messing up my contacts.

i can attest it works OK.
