Outlook Syncing Contacts

[jrccomputer]

How do I stop the outlook app from Syncing Contacts! I have a personal, Outlook.com and a work 365 account! I have a Nexus 6 and all the contacts from both those accounts are getting synced and I can't find any way to stop it!

Please help me of you can!

The setting is not in the outlook app. Do the following:

Open Contacts
Menu
Settings
Contacts
Contacts to display
Custom List

Here, select the accounts and contacts you want to sync.

Hope this helps!!

I don't think you can. Just got the update and the Outlook app has all my contacts now when I haven't set it up to accept them. But it seems like it's not an option, as is the fact that you can't seem to be able to edit/delete them. Hmmmm, some feedback going to M$oft I think.

The other thing is that the Outlook app doesn't differentiate between different numbers from the Outlook client on the PC. I actually sync with Outlook on my PC (local, not cloud based) and have a test contact with all numbers filled in. The Outlook app calls them all 'phone' rather than 'Fax, Work Fax, etc etc).

This method only changes the contacts displayed in the "Contacts" app, but not in contacts under the "Dialer" app! Which is the primary way I access my contacts and not by using the "Contacts" app it self

Ah. Well on my device it is for both (Samsung Galaxy Note Edge). Might be a part of TouchWiz.
