iPhone 4s Contact Groups not Syncing Deletions
Early 2009 Mac Pro, Mt. Lion, iTunes 11.1
iPhone 4s iOS 6.1.3
I have contact groups that change periodically. After the latest such change today, I find that contacts I delete from groups in iContacts are not deleted from the corresponding groups on my iPhone.
I tried un-checking the 'sync group' checkbox for the group in iTunes, and syncing
(the group disapeared from my phone)
then re-checking the group checkbox and syncing again
(the group came back with the deleted contacte still there!?!).
I have a workaround:
I can delete the group from iContacts, sync, recreate the group in iContacts and sync again. This is okay if the group only has 10 or 15 members, but if I have to do this to a group with hundreds of members, it won't be pretty.
Meanwhile, I am left with;
Contacts I add to a group appear as part of the group on my iPhone after I sync, as expected.
Contacts I delete from a group remain in the group on my iPhone forever.
Can anyone point me at a fix for this issue?
