Syncronize Contacts in Lotus Notes 8

For the longest time we have been trying to figure out how to get the word "disabled" to go away on the replication page in Lotus Notes 8 for the contacts to sync between the web access and the local file.

We found the issue today...

Under File -> Preferences -> Contacts there is a settings that reads Enable "Synchroize Contacts" on the Replicator that needs to be enabled. We found that setting several weeks ago and enabled it yet the system still said "disabled" on the replication tab.

So today we found the same setting (thanks to notes.net) under the More -> Preferences button in the Contacts database. That setting also has to be checked. It seems that there is a bug in the two linking up.

Anyway, once we checked both the disabled disappeared from the replication tab and the contacts synced up.

So there ya go!
