calendar notes sync

has anyone sorted how to get the notes field from a calendar entry to sync ?

I'm having a similar problem where my task notes are not sync'ing. I think this is a bug, since it used to sync with my Tmobile SDA, but not with my DASH.

I have the same problem after upgrading to WM6 on my Samsung i600...
Did you solved it in the meantime and help me with it?
Thanks a lot,
Roel

My calendar notes sync fine with my WM6 Dash -- it also worked with WM5 prior to the upgrade. Currently using Vista with Outlook 2007, previously it was working also with XP and Outlook XP.
Do you have the most recent version of Activesync? Could that be related?

Hi Chaznet,
I have Vista and Outlook 2007. Before upgrading my i600 to WM6 it worked fine. I did the ROM-upgrade a week ago, but just found it out yesterday.
I can make notes attached to a task on my device, it will sync and end up in Outlook on my PC. But just adding one letter to it or something will keep the note on the PC side but after syncing it is gone on my smartphone.
I have WMDC 6.0.6783, I also tried WMDC 6.1 but this will end up in an error on WMDC that I have to delete the current sync-connection and make a new one. I tried to reinstall WMDC back and forth between 6.0 and 6.1 and deleting the sync relation on my device so it was blank (no contacts, tasks, agenda at all present on the device). The only thing it remembers is my device name I gave it on my PC, so maybe I have to manually delete that somewhere.
So if you have a sollution or a place to look. It will be highly appreciated!
Thanks in advance

Sorry, never had a problem with it so never had to troubleshoot. Maybe you can find a forum somewhere specific to your device -- possibly it's related to a i600 (whatever that is)...

Hi Chaznet,
It's the Samsung i600 similar to the BlackJack but with Wifi. It is on the European market.
thanks for your answer but if someone else has an answer... This will be great.

notes sync fine with me. i am using:
- tmobile dash w/ iu russian wm6 beta rom
- activesync 4.5
- outlook 2003

You should look for a Samsung forum -- might be something to do with that device. I do seem to recall an earlier version of ActiveSync having this issue, but I really don't remember -- glad it's not something I'm having a problem with, sorry to hear you are...

Help My Contacts Are Gone!! --pim.vol

I NEED HELP. IF SOMEONE CAN FIGURE THIS ONE OUT, IM BUYING YOU A DRINK!.
I recently upgraded from the 8125 WM5 device to the new 8925 WM6 device.
I saved the pim.vol file from the 8125 and sync'd it with Outlook to make sure i have a backup of all my contacts and calendar entries. Well, I sold the 8125 then recently reformatted my computer and had problems with the 8925 so i upgraded the ROM and FORGOT TO SYNC WITH OUTLOOK FIRST BEFORE UPGRADING THE ROM.
SO NOW IM STUCK WITH A CLEAN 8925 PHONE WITH NO CONTACTS AND A WM5 PIM.VOL FILE. I SEARCHED EVERYWHERE AND CAN'T FIGURE OUT A WAY TO GET THIS PHONE TO RECOGNIZE THE PIM.VOL FILE. I LOST HUNDREADS OFCONTACTS AND TONS OF APPOINTMENT DATES.
Please, if you have have any suggestions whatsoever, im willing to do anything at this point. Thankss!

I dont understand you, did u say u have a wm5 pim.vol,and it wont work on a wm6 device? did the 8925 come with wm5 or wm6?

Outlook-Help Please???

I am very new to the whole Palm thing but not to the computer thing. Anyway... I have had a regular cell phone for years of course but I really wanted to get my msn mail on my phone and also have a date book ect. So I got the crackberry but the only way I could get the MSN mail was to sign in to the web and go about it that way. What I was looking for was for the phone to just tell me I had a new message. I do have the paid version of MSN so I am able to check it through outlook on my laptop. Anyway... Thanks you do guys I have been able to at least get Microsoft Live onto my Trio 750 and as soon as I got it I upgraded to Windows Mobile 6.0 (thinking that might have been a mistake now). How in the world do I import all of my Outlook Express contacts from my laptop to this damn phone. Also is there anyway I can set-up outlook on the phone to check my various accounts (msn, Verizon, work)? Please please help and again I am sorry I am sure this is a neeewbe question.
Thanks again,
Glenn

Im not sure if you have already done this, but did you install and set up activesync. Activesync is a program that interfaces your treo with your laptop and there is also an option in activesync to save your contacts from outlook to you treo. http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/activesync/activesync45.mspx Go there to download activesync 4.5, it is the latest one. Make sure you scroll towards the bottom of the page and click on the link that says "Worldwide English" Hope this answers you question.

[Q] How to transfer contacts/calender from Treo to HTC Fuze

Hey everyone, is it possible to transfer my contacts, calender, and all my data from a Treo 700wx running WM5 to the new HTC Fuze running WM6.1?
Has anyone done it?
Thanks.

have you tried PPCPimBackup?

The best thing out there, IMHO, is Sprite Backup v. 6.5. The Fuze comes stock with v. 6.2, but you can get the upgrade price. Before you do that, though, what are you using for contacts, calendar, etc? If you're connecting to Outlook via Activesync, then just establish a new partnership for your Fuze and it will sync all your data.

Hi, I just downloaded PPCimBackup.exe
But when I try to run it on my PC, a message pops up saying it's not a valid Win32 application.
I'm running Windows Vista

all i normally do is copy pim.vol from the phones directory to a card then use total ommander to moved it to the new phone and over write the old one.
although i was told it may not always work ive nevr had a problem

Try PIM Backup. worked for going from my wizard to my fuze

Signup for an exchange account. It's the easiest way I've ever found to carry my contacts over easily between phones and post ROM flash - especially if you're contract is a flat internet rate.
I'm currently running Touch Pro, with a StrTrk as backup for when I don't want to carry the Pro out, and a Typhoon for when I'm in a candybar mood. All of them are set to sync to my exchange server, so I don't ever need to worry about one phone having someone's old number - just pop my SIM in and go out.
I've got a mail2web account - it's only Exchange 2003 but it's free and that's the bit that's important to me!
