n o t e 1 9 . c o m

This afternoon, I got a call on my iPhone from an acquaintance who was already in my contact list and to my surprise the name of the person was not displayed on the iPhone just the number. I checked my address book and it had become empty. Thanks to the buggy Me.com sync operation, I’m sure. Well if this happens to you, before you start to panic, try this: 

1. Remove the me.com mail set-up from your iPhone
2. Now add it back

This has happened to me twice, and in both cases, removing and adding the me.com mail account fixed the problem. Fortunately the sync didn’t delete all of my contacts on the me.com web site, just deleted all contacts on the iPhone.
