Avoiding Duplicate Entries in the Contacts Application

If you synchronize your contacts with a new account or import contact information in

other ways, you could end up with duplicate entries in the Contacts application. If this

happens, you can link such duplicates to create a single entry. If you link entries by

mistake, you can unlink them again later.
