Joining Contact Information Most people now maintain multiple email accounts, social networking logins, and other similar account information. For example, a Facebook account login name might differ from a corporate email account login because they are maintained separately and for different groups of people. This device can synchronize with multiple accounts (such as Facebook, Twitter, MySpace, Corporate email, Google, or T-Mobile). When you synchronize your tablet with those accounts, each account creates a separate contact entry in the Contacts list. If one of your contacts (Amy Smith) has a regular email account that you maintain in Gmail, but also has a Facebook account under her maiden and married name, as well as a Yahoo! chat account, when you merge those accounts into your Contacts list you can link all of her entries and view the information in one record. Linking contact information makes sending messages easy. You can select any account email address or information all from one screen, versus searching multiple, individual screens to locate the desired account information. Next time you synchronize your tablet with your accounts, any updates contacts make to email account names, email addresses, etc. automatically update in your contacts list. For more information about synchronizing accounts, see "Get Friends" on page 48. 1. From the Home screen, touch ➔ . 2. Touch a contact name (the name you want to link to another entry). Note: typically this is the same contact with a different name or account information. 3. Press ➔ More ➔ Join contact. 4. Touch the second contact entry (the entry in which to link). The second contact is now linked with the first and the account information is merged into one screen. Note: The information is still maintained in both entries, but displays in one record for easier viewing when you link the contacts. 5. Touch the linked contacts to view the contact information you linked. The contacts and information displays with an icon next to the contact name to indicate what type of account information is contained in the entry. Contacts 47

Joining Contact Information
Most people now maintain multiple email accounts, social
networking logins, and other similar account information. For
example, a Facebook account login name might differ from a
corporate email account login because they are maintained
separately and for different groups of people.
This device can synchronize with multiple accounts (such as
Facebook, Twitter, MySpace, Corporate email, Google, or
T-Mobile). When you synchronize your tablet with those
accounts, each account creates a separate contact entry in the
Contacts list.
If one of your contacts (Amy Smith) has a regular email account
that you maintain in Gmail, but also has a Facebook account
under her maiden and married name, as well as a Yahoo! chat
account, when you merge those accounts into your Contacts list
you can link all of her entries and view the information in one
record.
Linking contact information makes sending messages easy. You
can select any account email address or information all from one
screen, versus searching multiple, individual screens to locate
the desired account information.
Next time you synchronize your tablet with your accounts, any
updates contacts make to email account names, email
addresses, etc. automatically update in your contacts list.
