Although I'm familiar with Apple products (I have an iphone 4 and a MacBook Pro), I am new to the ipad, so I beg your indulgence if I ask questions that have been dealt with in other threads.

The first problem I've encountered is that I can't sync my ipad Contacts with my Yahoo Address Book. I continue to get the message that the sync failed "because of an unknown error (6)" and that I should try again later. Can anyone suggest what I might do to resolve this?

Sorry about the "Sink" for "Sync"! I can't believe I did that.

PS: I managed to to sync, and the weirdest thing happened. My address book (at least in part) synced,and along with it about 100 email addresses and and telephone telephone numbers from my wife's iphone appeared in my ipad address book and in my Yahoo contacts. I can't understand it. My wife doesn't even have a Yahoo account. Its a hell of a mess!
