Duplicate Entries in My Entourage Address Book

E

Hi,

I have set my Entourage Address book to synch with .mac and address book. It keeps generating duplicate entries in the Entourage book. I'll open it and have five of each entry. The only way I've been able to get rid of them is to reset the preferences again and basically erase the Entourage book. Any idea how this can be fixed?

Currently Sync Services is having problems with duplicates. I suggest
turning it off for now. There are scripts that deal with duplicates.

To get rid of duplicates use one of the scripts to remove duplicates.

Remove Duplicate Messages Author: Jolly Roger

This script uses a thorough method of examining message
headers that guarantees it won't mistakenly mark two messages that
happen to have the same subject as duplicates.

This script takes a lot more time than the other scripts. I've used them all
with no problems.
