Hi - we are using Office 365 and as a part of that I'm running Lync 2010 on my machine. Today I have started my machine and although Lync has connected correctly and I can make calls, all of my Lync contacts are missing. Any ideas why? Yesterday I removed AVG anti-virus and replaced it with MS Security Essentials - could that be blocking something??
