1. Hotmail. I don't use Hotmail, but when I used messenger it created a Hotmail Email account (even though my messenger email account is a @rogers.com not Hotmail). The Delete account option is greyed out.
2. System. This email account was created when i installed BB Connect. I uninstalled BB Connect and the Email account is gone however is still shows up on the sliding panel on my homescreen. I tried rebooting and changing homescreen themes.
Try looking into to the registry for the keys about the e-mail accounts on the notifications pannel of the chome, I guess you can delete them there (at least the 2nd one...)
Cheers.
i had the same problem i tried everything and they wouldnt go away. My finall solution was to hard reset
sorry if i didnt help
I picked up my TP2 on Friday(vodafone one unfortunately but it was a free upgrade so I'm not complaining too much and I'm happy to wait for hardspl!), and am loving it so far. I have couple of problems/queries though. The first is that I have set my 2 Gmail accounts as IMAP email accounts, but every now and then when I scroll to the email tab of the TF3D bar, it seems to lock for over a minute or so while it's loading. Anyone else experience this, and any fixes?
second is that I'd like to get rid of the outlook email tab on the email screen on TF3D. Is there a way to do that, as I don't use the Outlook email at all. Only my two IMAP gmail accounts, and other than the hanging thing, they are working fine.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Inbox\Svc\Activesync
delete the \Activesync folder
and softreset

I've done that, but the outlook tab is still there in my tf3d email tab.
Remove email sync in activesync. That should remove the outlook entry on the mail tab.

Thanks for that, it worked fine!
I just got my new TouchPro 2 on Verizon today and I installed wireless sync to have my emails from work pushed to my phone (used this on my XV6800). The Outlook email was created correctly and I can access my inbox if I go to all accounts but I can't find out how to add a link to the inbox on the email tab in TouchFlo. The email tab will show that I have new emails but I need to go to the Windows Mobile accounts screen to get to it.
Is there any way to add this account to the email tab in TouchFlo?
You are not alone. Same problem here. Looking for the answer.
Do get the number of messages, but no access to them in TouchFlo?
Yes it will display the number of messages but there is no easy way to display them through the email tab. I have been clicking the inbox link in the notification message that I get when a new wireless sync message comes through. It works but it would be nice to be able to view the messages downloaded through wireless sync in the same way as my gmail account.
Ha. It took me 2 days to figure out why I had 1 message showing on that tab (damn "welcome" email in outlook inbox). I suppose that the whole email tab is of no use to you then, if you use outlook. Maybe a plugin for the home tab is possible?
Same issue
I am also having the issue of the Outlook email not showing on the TouchFlo email tab. I have looked everywhere to try and find where the configuration for this tab is stored, but no luck.
I did have it showing previously when ActiveSync was configured to sync with Outlook (in addition to Wireless Sync), but if I did not disable ActiveSync completely when connected to my computer it created duplicates, and kept creating them for as long as it was connected...Big mess. When I disabled syncing with the inbox on ActiveSync, it deleted all of my email (on the device, then wireless sync deleted everything in Outlook as well), and the Outlook email no longer showed in the TouchFlo email tab.
I am thinking that setting up a bogus ActiveSync partnership with a computer that has nothing in Outlook (and selecting the Inbox) might be a workaround, but it should not be this difficult.
NOTE: I tried removing everything and setting up a bogus partnership through ActiveSync, still did not put the Outlook email back in the TouchFlo Email tab. Just have to use Start > Messaging until someone figures this one out. Would be nice to have it working correctly.
Same issue here. I added second email account, not in wireless sync, but in the email setup, a POP3 account. Now the little envelope goes to that account and then on the bottom you can see the inbox and navigate to the outlook inbox which is your wireless sync. It gets you there with a couple of extra steps, but it isn't the same.
Additionally, you can't see your email for a particular contact, in your wireless sync email. That is a huge benefit of the HTC Touch Pro 2, in that it integrates emails, SMS messages, phone calls, facebook, all through the contacts. Hope someone finds a work around, this is very irritating. Love the phone, but without this, not sure if I will return it within the 30 days.
I'm having the same problem, does anybody have a solution for this?
Thanks!
Same problem
I've got the same issue. Anyone ever find a solution for this that doesn't involve a hard reset?
I am running BB Connect on my sock TMO TP2, on the mail screen I have 2 system email accounts that are not in use and would like to remove them.
Is there a way to get them not to show there?
You need to delete them from the account picker. By default, this should come up if you press the messaging key on your keyboard. Otherwise, from your inbox, tap Menu, Tools, Options, and check the "Display account picker when opening Messaging".
Once you're in the account picker, just tap and hold on the account you want to delete and tap on the context sensitive menu that pops up.
It doesn't work on the system email accounts that are associated with BB Connect for some reason. There must be a reg hack that will hide them. Or I could remove and reinstall but that is a pain.

OH, welcome to my world. I have 3 accounts that I wanted to remove so I could reinstate them again and I couldn't do it. They don't show up in the "remove account" page. I tried recreating them with the same name but the mail program wouldn't allow me to do it. So I had to rename them and now I have 6 email folders with only three that are active. How dumb.
I tried going through the registry and looking for any files that might be associated with the accounts without luck. I just need to live with it. I don't want to reinstall the ROM to start fresh.
The way I disassociated the original email boxes, if you're interested, is when I realized I didn't want to sync my Outlook box in my phone, so I removed it from the computer syncing program. That basically uninstalled whatever link my Outlook had along with all three of my external email folders. <sigh>
If it is setup to connect using Exchange, you need to remove/change the Exchange server connection in ActiveSync
Otherwise, try this
1. Click the Inbox on TF3D (I'm using v2.1 on wm6.1)
2. Menu > Tools > Options
3. Click and hold the account name > Delete
simular problem with email & TouchFLO
Hello,
I am having a simular issue with the Outlook Mobile and Touch FLO3D. I had 5 email accounts set up. Hotmail, Outlook mail and 3 POP3 accounts. For some unexplained reason this week, the 3 POP3 accounts stoped working, but were still showing up in the TouchFLO email tab. When I checked Windows Mobile email picker and setup, the accounts did not displayshow up. I tried to re-add the the accounts using the same name and credentials. I received an error that the name was already in use. So I added the 3 accouns using different names. Now I have 8 email accounts on the TouchFLO tab, and 5 in the Windows Mobile email screens. There seems to be no way to delete the accounts from TouchFLO tabs. I have also attempted to disable the TouchFLO email and to re-enable. This did not change anything. A soft reset was also no help.

runandgun,
Did you ever resolve this issue? I just had the same problem with two Gmail accounts - my Outlook account is just fine. The Gmail accounts appear on my Touchflo screen but I cannot access them. the do not show up in Account Picker, yet I cannot add accounts with the same name because "they already exist". They also do not show up when I do a "View Inbox" and examine the account drop down.
Thanks,
jisso
I guess this was never solved. I have the same exact problem and was hoping I could find a fix for it here.
Ah. I found a thread with the answer:

I am getting duplicate entries in the calendar from my exchange accounts. Is this a known problem and is there a fix?
I have tried deleting the calendar storage and removing then re adding the accounts.
thanks
I have the same issue ... I thought it was because I switched time zones but can't confirm that.

I had that problem once before on my old epic. If I remember correctly it was because I had 2 accounts synced to my phone, Google and Yahoo? Now I just sync everything to Google only. I was also getting duplicated in contacts.
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda premium
I think it is a problem with the S3 calendar app or the exchange sync. I have synced the same accounts on other android phones and have not had any issues with duplicate calendar entries. I sync my work exchange account and a hotmail account. This gives me my work and personal calendars. I only sync contacts from my hotmail account. I do not want to use google since I already have everything setup on my other accounts.
I will try doing some reconfiguring of the accounts tonight. I will post an update if I find anything interesting.
Re-Duplicate Calendar/Contacts entries from Exchange Server
Last week my S3 started duplicating both calendar and contact entries. This only occurs on my Exchange work email. I can clear out my contact and calendar storage and then resynch and it will be fine for a few hours. Then i will get duplicate entries. I did not reset my storage after seeing the duplicates today and now a third set of the same entries are showing up. Very frustrating. I have uninstalled the apps I've loaded in the last week.
I was rooted and had not downloaded any upgrades when this started. Yesterday I went back to the stock rom thinking that was the problem. It is still happening after I reset to stock ROM and downloaded the available upgrades.
This is very frustrating and it is odd that this started recently. Maybe something changed with corporate exchange servers in the last couple of weeks that caused this conflict.
Looking forward to a resolution.
I have the same problem. Now I have 8 times every contact and calendar entry. When I delete the account is working for some hours and then start dublicating as well. I have 2 exchange accounts, my corporate that I sync everything and my hotmail that sync only email.
I now only have one exchange calendar syncing and I am still getting duplicates. I have tried to reproduce the duplication by restarting and re-syncing but neither one created duplicates manually. Next I am going to remove all of my accounts, delete all the calendar & contact storage then add back one account. I will run wiht only the one account for a day to see what happens
Solution (At least working for a day now)
I was getting duplicates every few hours and now I am 1 full day without. Here is what I did:
1. I deleted all of my Exchange ActiveSync type accounts. I had three mail accounts using the exchange option : Corporate, Gmail and Hotmail
2. Went to Task Manager and View All processes and Find the Calendar and Contact storage apps and cleared the data.
3. Setup my Corporate account using Exchange ActiveSync
4. Setup synch for Gmail using the Google Account
5. Setup Hotmail with the Hotmail app.
(Dont like Gmail and Hotmail separated, because I enjoyed having all emails in a combined view)
Doesnt seem to make sense, why this has started happening in the last couple of weeks, because I had this setup since I setup the phone the end of June.

I'm going to try this method and see if it works out. I too, had 2 Exchange ActiveSync email accounts associated with my stock email client (Corporate and Hotmail) But I'm going to try and set up the Hotmail account as a POP3 this time and see if that alleviates the multiple calendar entry catastrophe!
I made some progress in my testing. Here is what I did.
First test
1. Removed all accounts using the default email client.
2. Cleared all data for calendar and contacts
3. Restarted phone
4. Only setup one account using exchange and synced mail, calendar and contacts using default email client
5. No duplicates after 3 days.
Second test
1. Removed all accounts using the default email client.
2. Cleared all data for calendar and contacts
3. Restarted phone
4. Setup two account using exchange and synced mail, calendar and contacts using default email client
5. After the first day I started getting duplicates in the calendar and contacts.
Third test
1. Removed all accounts using the default email client.
2. Cleared all data for calendar and contacts
3. Restarted phone
4. Setup one account using exchange and synced mail and calendar using default email
5. Setup one account using exchange and synced mail, calendar and contacts using Enhanced Email
6. After the first day I started getting duplicates in the calendar and contacts.
Fourth Test
1. Removed all accounts using the default email client.
2. Cleared all data for calendar and contacts
3. Restarted phone
4. Setup up my Office Exchange (Sync mail & calendar), Hotmail (Sync mail, contacts, & calendar), and Live (Sync mail) accounts. All accounts are setup as exchange accounts using Enhanced Email.
5. Now after two days there are no duplicates in either the calendar or contacts.
I dont if Enhanced Email syncs differently than the default email client. I believe that there is a problem with the default email syncing process. I never had this problem with my Gingerbread phones.
duplicate appointments and contacts
The duplicating calendar and contacts problem was driving me crazy as well. It just seemed to keep getting worse with more and more duplicates as time went by.
I could remove the duplicates by removing my Exchange account and then re-adding it back in, but the duplicates would show up again hours later.
I removed/added my exchange account a bunch of times, and each time the duplicates came back... except this last time.
The only thing I did different this last time (that I know of) was goto: Settings, then Backup and Reset, and uncheck "Back up my data". Then I removed/added Exchange.
Since doing this, I have had no more duplicating appointments or contacts. It has been several days, maybe a week now.

I will try that and see what happens over a few days.
Workaround: Google Calendar sync option
I had the same issue on my Galaxy S2 Skyrocket. I removed my Exchange Server account -> Synced calendar -> Made sure the Exchange entries were gone from Calendar -> Install Google Calendar Sync in your PC that has the exchange server and do the 1-way sync option from Exchange to Google -> Resync Google Calendar on phone -> Add Exchange Server account on phone.
This is a roundabout method to remove duplicate entries but it works great for me and should do so for you as well. There is a one-time setup of Google Calendar sync on your PC and that's about it.

Can you please point me to the difference in setting up via default email client vs setting it up using Enhanced Email?
My Father-in-law has his gmail account and a Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync account (for work) syncing on his GS3 and is getting duplicate events from the Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync account. I'm trying to help him remove those duplicate entries. Apparently his IT guy at work setup the ActiveSync account and he didn't know how to set it up, so I couldn't remove and add it back.
I'm just not sure how I should tell him to set it up differently this time. Note: I saw the item to remove the check mark for backing up items. Did that work for you as well?
Solution I found that works for my HTC Android
opened my Droid's Calendar,
then touched Menu button,
then "More",
then unchecked the box next to Calendar,
and checked only the calendar I want to sync and show (Exchange)
waited for everything to clear itself out.
done / fixed.
Why I don't have Exchange on my droid?! I have the same problem: duplicate calendar entries. I simply use S2 (Jelly bean) and my default gmail account and its calendar! nothing more. but there are many duplicates. I can't see exchange in my calendar list
