Gmail offers a roll back based on timestamp, which should give you back your contact store. If you don't have changes on both ends you care to sync to the other side, this is what you should do: - Delete your BBDB file - Restore your gmail contacts to a known safe time - Delete your asynk profile profile - Clear sync artefacts (see http://asynk.io/doc/asynk/asynk_6.html#Misc-Housekeeping-Activities for examples of this and above) - Create the profile afresh - Do a sync to recreate your BBDB as a mirror of your gmail contacts -- Find ASynK useful?
