Unjoining a Contact

1.

From the Home screen, tap

Contacts

.

Tap 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.

3.

Tap <number> joined contacts from the Joined Contacts

area.

4.

Tap the minus sign

next to entry in which you want to

unjoin. The contact is now separated and no longer

displays in the merged record screen.

Marking a Contact as Default

When you use messaging type applications, the application
needs to know which information is primary (default) in a contact
entry list. For example, you may have three different contact
records for John Smith, so the application will be looking for the
“default” number or entry.

1.

From the Home screen, tap

Contacts

.

2.

Tap a Contact name.

3.

Press

More

Set default. The Set default screen

displays radio buttons next to the contact names or phone

numbers of all the linked contacts. The radio button next to

the default contact will be green.

4.

To change the default contact, tap the radio button next to

another entry that you want to be the default. The radio

button will turn green, then tap Done.

Synchronizing Accounts

From the Accounts menu you decide if you want applications to
synchronize, send, and receive data at any given time, or if you
want the applications to synchronize automatically. After
determining how you want the accounts to synchronize, indicate
which account to synchronize with your Contacts list.

From the Home screen, tap

Settings

Accounts

and sync.

following options:

• Background data: allows your tablet to use data in the

background.

• Auto-sync: automatically synchronizes your data with the tablet.
