After an unsuccessful syncing attempt, Multisync attempted slow-syncing, which created duplicates. So i cleaned the phone data (no loss, Evolution had it all) and resynced. Hasn't happened again. That was about a month ago, and i sync about 6 times a day. Best Regards Sid Actually, that did happen once.
