Hi. Nearly the same as #805 but not quite.

I'm wanting to sync only contacts one way from acct1@gmail.com to Outlook, AND acct2@gmail.com to Outlook, both to my masteracct@gmail.com Outlook. But I don't want the contacts crossing over between acct1 and acct2 accounts, nor do I want other contacts in masteracct@gmail.com to sync to acct1@gmail.com or acct2@gmail.com.

Can this be done?

Thanks!
Cheers...Steve

    Can you please try SyncOption "GoogleToOutlook only" and uncheck "Sync deletion" in both profiles?

    Thanks Florian.
    I currently have them both as "GoogleToOutlook only" but with "Sync deletion" checked in both (and Prompt deletion unchecked), which kind of works most of the time. Sometimes empty labels from acct1 appear in the acct2 google contacts, and vice-versa but without any of the other accounts actual contacts.

    I tried with "Sync deletion" unchecked and acct1 said for each contact from acc2 "Google Person xyz doesn't exist any more. Do you want to delete it also on the outlook side". I can answer no to all, but that means it can't run silently.

    The need for this is because I have multiple email accounts on my Outlook and I haven't found a way for Outlook to to check multiple contacts folders when checking names (eg completing a "To" field).

    Thank you for your help and support! Did you get my donation?

    Ticket 895 is actually causing me (and others it seems) much more grief right now as it makes GCSM not sync hundreds of contacts on several devices.

    I see that this tool should be able to sync with more than one gmail account and that's exactly what I need. I just can't find how to set up 2 syncs.

    A single Outlook desktop contacts folder to sync with my gmail contacts and my wife's gmail contacts. All should be the same.

    Again, the question is how to set up to syncs

    Sorry for the needless post. I found it.
    Easy enough, for sure.
    Just add another profile

    This tool works great!
    Thank you

    is it still not working with latest version? If still not, can you provide us the logs?
    And can you send me the links to 805 and 895? are they bugs or support requests?

    I cannot remember the outcome I'm afraid. I only use GCSM on one account now so don't have a need for it.

    Cheers
