Soocial keeps trying to create duplicate groups in the OS X Address Book

I have been canceling the most recent syncs because Soocial keeps trying to create lots of duplicate groups in Address Book. This happened several times before I noticed the duplicates, deleted them, and stopped subsequent syncs. I just downloaded the most recent Soocial software which I believe is supposed to address this but the problem persists. I believe because the duplicate groups are still present in the Soocial database. Unfortunately, I can't see any groups on the Soocial website in order to delete them. How do I solve this?

Soocial Keeps Trying to Change a Contact

At some point my contact entry for Apple Computer got synced to Soocial as a person instead of a business. I changed it back in Address Book and now Soocial keeps trying to revert that. About once or twice a day the Mac OS X Contact Sync utility pops up saying there's a conflict and asks me to choose between the local Address Book copy, with Apple as a business, and the Soocial copy, with Apple as a person. I keep choosing the former but Soocial never seems to get the message. This is quite minor but pretty annoying. Any ideas how to fix this?

Thanks, Menno. Luckily this is just a bug in the numbering – the tracks listed are the most popular, from most to 10th most popular – so we'll have a fix out really soon.

In fact, it was part of yesterday's incremental release!

What sort of information would you like to have? Sharing user streams will form the basis of our API but how much information would you like? What other information would be useful?

Duplicating comments

I just had the Mac sync tool report that Soocial wanted to updated 80+ contacts. The only changes I could see is that the comment text would be duplicated for each one. Naturally I canceled the sync. However, why is this happening?

Hi guys, I'm still having this problem. Is there any way to restore previous group memberships for contacts? – Peter Robinett, on October 14, 2008 09:35

Display times on the website in my local timezone

It appears that the times on the Connections page are in UTC. Not a big deal, but it'd be nice to set my timezone and see the appropriate times.

Yes, that fixed the empty address book problem. Unfortunately some of my groups are now empty. Does Soocial actual track address book groups? I imagine you do, because half of them do have the correct contacts in them.

Simon, you're correct, the plugin says my last sync was at 7:53 AM. I let it delete the contacts and now I'm left with just 14 contacts. I tried to sync after this to get the 'new' contacts but the sync doesn't give any new contacts.

Soocial is trying to delete 95% of my contacts!

The Apple Sync tool just popped up and said that Soocial wanted to delete 95% of my address book (and no, it's not adding any contacts back, so these aren't merged ones)!

Ok, I guess I just jumped to the conclusion that it already understands them. I'm looking forward to the support!

The email importer does not seem to handle multi-stop trips.

I forwarded an airline confirmation email to trips@dopplr.com. While it correctly identified by first destination, it ignored the second destination and thought I was returning home after only two days. While the page with other possibilities discovered in the email listed the second location, I was not able to indicate I would be going to both destinations over the course of my trip. Furthermore, the edit box for the trip did not have the option to add an additional destination (unlike in normal trip creation), meaning that I had to delete the trip and enter the trip by hand – not hard but a sign the email-based importer failed.

Thanks, Simon. Where are the debug logs written, so I can send them to you?

Yep, Simon, that works on Tiger.
