I don't want my contacts in Outlook

Hi can anyone help please?

 

I'm using a BB Curve 9360 with two email accounts set up, one of which is through BES. 

 

When I add contacts to my BB either manually or sync them from my old device through the desktop software, my contacts are also copied to my Outlook contacts book on my MAC. I don't want my contacts to appear in Outlook, but when I delete them from Outlook, it automatically deletes them from the BB even though it isn't connected, I assume because of BES.

 

Can anyone help? All I want to be able to do is add my contacts without them being copied into outlook!

Trie to turn off wireless sync. Go to phonebook>press menu>options>desktop>wireless synchronization set to off.

That should be it, but then eny new entry or delete some contact will not be registered on you server profile since you are using BES.

 

Correct me if I'm wrong. :smileyhappy:

Thanks very much - one more question, I have now added my contacts but WhatsApp doesn't recognise them, and displays the numbers rather than the names saved in my contacts book. Any ideas?
