1.Creating BCM.Account & BCM.Contact items in Technical Refresh

I'm experiencing problems with an add-in I'm developing after installing the 
Technical Refresh.

Previously when I created a BCM.Account or a BCM.Contact object, all the BCM 
specific item properties existed, now none of them are so things are going 
pear shaped in my application.

I can create these properties after I create the object but why are they no 
longer created by default when the object is created. Seem a little bizare 
that this used to work but now it dosn't, I can't believe that this is an 
'feature enhancement'.

2.BCM Account cannot see BCM Contacts

i have successfully set up a bunch of Accounts over the past few days.
I had some existing contacts and added a bunch of new ones. From th
Account record I successfully linked a contact, all from the new ones 
had created.

Today I can create a new contact and create a new account.  when I g
to link the contact from the account screen the select box is no longe
populated with any of the new contacts I have created and only sees th
few that were previously there.  I can go to contacts and see, selec
and open any contact record. I can open an existing Account and click o
an previously linked contact and that contact will be found.

I have
- run office diagnostics and one issue was fixed
- run MS SCANPST and SCANOST
- deleted my old outlook profile and created a new one (costly, los
all my categories and all my contacts out of my address book hav
vanished.)

A different but perhaps related issue is that while my address boo
contacts have vanished from outlook they still exist on my iphone
However when I synch my iphone through itunes Outlook does not ge
updated with the many contacts on my iphone.

I run Vista SP1 and Outlook/Office 2007 on a Lenovo X61 Tablet with 
Gigs of RAM. I am currently up to date on MS Updates.

Any help appreciated

3.Outlook with BCM not Showing Accounts for Business Contact

For some reason, OUTLOOK with BUSINESS CONTACT MANAGER 
stopped presenting my Business Contacts organized by 
ACCOUNT. The contacts are organized under "Account Name
(none)," yet all the Account information is retained in 
the database. So far I cleared the cache and even re-
assigned Account names to Busienss Contacts, without 
success, and did a 'repair installatiion." Any ideas? 
Thanks!

4.OL'07 w/ BCM: Reminders from Business Accounts/Contacts

In my "Reminders" pop-up dialogue box there are many items for which I do not 
recall setting up specific reminders.  They are all Accounts, Contacts and 
Linked Items from my Business Contact Manager.  If I click the Dismiss 
button, the reminder disappears for a few seconds but then reappears in my 
list, so I cannot clear my reminders.

Q1:  Are these reminders automatically created somehow when an 
account/contact is created in BCM or an item is linked to an existing 
account/contact?

Q2:  Where can I go to turn these reminders off?

I appreciate all who take the time to respond to queries in this discussion 
group.  Thank you.

5.BCM Lists Accounts and Business Contacts twice in Address Book

When I open the Address Book and select the drop down box "Show Names from 
the:"  I see "Accounts" and "Business Contacts" twice, while my typical 
contact files are only listed once (I've got 3 folders of contacts and am 
migrating them all over to BCM).

When I click on the first Accounts and Business contacts, I get an error 
message stating, "The address list could not be displayed.  The Contacts 
folder associated with this address list could not be opened; it may have 
been moved or deleted, or you do not have permissions.  For information on 
how to remove this folder from the Outlook Address Book, see Microsoft Office 
Outlook Help.

The second Accounts listed in the Address book doesn't seem to be working 
right either (It only show one of my 5 accounts), but I'm not getting an 
error message.  The second copy of Business Contacts seems to be working well.

To troubleshoot, I went into the properties of Accounts (I don't want it in 
my Show Names for Accounts list anyway) and unchecked the option for it to 
show in the Address Book.  Now, instead of showing two Accounts listed, it 
only shows the one that gives me the error message).

This seems to tell me that Outlook "sees" another BCM database somewhere (In 
my Administrator account???) and will not connect.

Well that sounds simple, but I only have one BCM database and one BCM .pst 
file in this Windows XP account.  Is my BCM linked to the .pst file for the 
Administrator?

Does anyone have an idea why I see these two files twice and how I can 
remove the "junk" from my address book?

Thanks
