Kies 3 and MJ9 firmware on Galaxy 3

[Jon Watson68]

I have just updated the firmware on my Galaxy 3, and was asked at the same time to upgrade to Kies 3, so I did that as well. Now there is no option - either on my phone or PC - to synchronize my calendars, tasks or contacts. The previous menu option on the phone (Settings/More settings/Kies wi fi) has disappeared, and the Synch option on the PC (for either USB or wi fi connections) has also disappeared.
Has anyone else had this problem, or does anyone know the solution?

Hi, I have not updated yet, although the 4.3 update is available on KIES. I'm running an unlocked UK version and I've read a lot of people having all sorts of problems with lag etc. Have you experienced this?

Is the 4.3 update what I have just loaded, ie Kies 3?

Having just spent the best part of an hour on the phone to the Samsung support centre, they have now admitted that it is not possible to synchronise with the new software! So if you need to synchronise, DON'T UPGRADE!!!

The software update to your phone (see Settings -> About phone) is independent of any update to the Kies software on your PC.

Maybe, but when I updated the phone, I was instructed to update the Kies software on my PC.
