Address book out of control 23,000 untitled entries

My address book went insane I had over twenty three thousand blank entries I found the cause LinkedIn and I stopped linking to it. But I really do like LinkedIn and would rather Fix It then delete.

Egad! You'd probably have to fix it on the LinkedIn side. Can you whittle down your contacts there?

 

[jckatz]

So according to LinkedIn I have 510 contracts according to LinkedIn for HTC sense i have 381 and according to LinkedIn app sync I have 23,118 .

 

[B. Diddy]

Wacky. Maybe try uninstalling LinkedIn completely, then reinstalling it again.

 

[jckatz]

Well now I feel stupid, that worked. Thank you B. Diddy

Great! I wonder what happened to make LinkedIn think there were >20,000 contacts. Keep an eye on that, and make sure it doesn't start creeping up again.
