Deletion of some contacts in Plaxo On-line   Message List

Re: [plaxo] Re: Deletion of some contacts in Plaxo On-line

Alas Jan I have to agree with the other poster. When Plaxo introduced
"Pulse" they changed the way things work.

They now attempt to take advantage of your desire to keep people updated
by having you recruit them into Pulse. The old functionality just isn't
there for non-members.

That said the only problem I've had when I used to use Plaxo for
synching my address books was that it kept generating duplicates. I gave
it up as it didn't work for me and with the new direction of the company
not only did I lose any confidence that it would get fixed the loss of
functionality took away a big reason for me paying for it in the first
place.

If you want to persevere you might want to back up your data locally,
delete everything from Plaxo and start from scratch with a fresh import.

Now I really must remember to get all my data off of it!

Express address books still each have around 120 contacts. "Synchronising"
between either of the two address books and my Plaxo on-line address book does
not seem to have any effect. The Plaxo on-line address book does not get
updated with the extra contacts, nor are either of my two personal address books
reduced in the number of contacts they hold. There seems to be something
strange happening here. Can anyone provide an explanation for this situation?

Advice: Move on to some other way of keeping your contacts in sync. Plaxo is no
more. :(

I'm frustrated at the "new" (but certainly not "improved") Plaxo. If I wanted a Facebook page, I would have joined Facebook. I don't want to be coerced into a...

Phil - Unfortunately Plaxo is now owned by Comcast. Many of the changes (i.e. e-cards now only send a link to a web page) are for the worse. It was a good...

I don't think so - I was birthday-notified yesterday . . . It seems that Plaxo stopped moderating this list, maybe we should start using it as a Plaxo user...
