User which is not using Mac and MobileMe rather than using MS Outlook and Exchange can apply the following solution to take out from this problem. Go to Settings from the home page. Select Mail, Contacts, Calendars. Tap on Mail, Contacts, Calendars. Turn off for Contacts. Delete when asked to keep or Delete the entries. After the deleting of the entry Turn on the Contacts When asked Delete from the iPhone. Same process should be done for the Calendars.

Well I want to provide you another solution on the basis of your problem. You should turn off Mobile Contacts Sync in your iPhone. When prompted you should delete all Contacts. Create a dummy group on your Mac and add new single entry. Sync Selected Contacts should be turned on. Select the dummy group. Your iPhone should be synchronized. Once it is done you will be left with one group and one contact. Contacts should be turn off and synchronized in iTunes. MobileMe should be activated again with synchronizing in iTunes. It will ask to you what will you do with contacts on MobileMe? Select Merge for the same. You should allow it to synchronize with air and add all the contacts. You should delete all dummy group and contacts from the Mac. Your iPhone will synchronize with air and your problem is solved! Try your Luck All the Best!

The simplest solution for your problem is as under. You should turn off MobileMe Push. Turn on "replace information on this iPhone” in iTunes. Once it is synchronized it will add new copy of calendar and contacts in your iPhone. Return to iTunes. Address book and Calendars synchronization should be turn off. You should turn MobileMe Push. When it will prompt you to merge you have to select no. I hope this will fix your problem.
