I can't be able to syncronize the outlook contact through active sync. Nobody can help me ? Thanks
I think you need to give a lot more information for anyone to even begin to suggest anything.
Have you searched these forums for "activesync" to find similar errors.
If so, then give the following information
1. What version of Activesync
2. What version of Outlook
3. Do you get an error message. If so what
4. Can you browse the device through Activesync
5. Did it used to work with this PC or has it never worked.
6. Do you/can you sync with another PC
The versione of active sync is 4.2 ;
Microsoft outlook (Not outlook express)
I don't receive an error message ;
Yes i can browse the device and i can sybcronize the calendar ;
It work with another pc but don't syncronize only the contact with my office pc.
Thanks
I think this is the same problem that i'm looking the solution for. You want to synchronize contacts with two PCs? one in your home and 2nd in your office? I would also want to do that. Can someone give more information on this one? If someone can help please send PM to me, I'm TyTN user so I don't often check this area of forum.
Thanks in advance for any help
Hello Experts,

there are couple of CHECK BOXES such as Contacts, Calender etc. the only check box (Favorites) is enabled rest all disable.
wht to do is there anything i need to change in settings or what ??
Will appriciate
Hi, you need to upggrade your Windows Mobile Device Center 6 to the version 6.1, the new version contains more phone drivers for Windows Vista Mobile Device Center.
Just download the appropriate language of the list and install it.....
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/devicecenter.mspx
In order to check those other boxes, you must run outlook once and configure it..or press don't add email account..
thanks i will check both about things i mean i will update my Device Center as well as i will try runing Outlook express may be it ll work
thanks
sorry guys but the problem couldnt fix. i tried by opening Window Mail (Outlook Express) but nothing happend then i installed latest version of device center but couldnt fix the problem.

I was till recently able to sync Imate jasjar with Microsoft office outlook 2007. When one day my ''Microsoft office outlook 2007'' developed an error with some file. After I moved that file I have not been able to sync with outlook at all. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling outlook that did not work, so uninstalled full office 2007 and reinstalled that did not work either. Recently my phone crashed hence had to do a hard reset and lost all my data.
I was wondering if someone could help me. The error given my active sync is '' Active sync encountered a problem on the desktop Support code 86000107''. The active sync runs and synchronises files but not contacts nor any calendar enteries. I can explore my Imate jasjar with the sync programme but cannot sync with outlook express.
Please help.
Regards

Hello,
I had a Nokia 6620 and I synced all the contacts with my laptop running Vista through Nokia PC Suite. I have a folder named "Contacts" in Vista now, which is also linked to the Windows Live Mail. Windows Live Mail is supposed to be the updated version of Outlook Express. When I opened Windows Mobile Device Center to sync all the contacts and calendar items to my HTC Fuze, the options to sync my contacts and calendar are disabled. Am I doing something wrong here? How do I sync all the data, which was stored on my Vista system by Nokia PC Suite, with my HTC Fuze, without opening a Windows account? Is there any other application I can use for this, other than Windows Mobile Device Center?
Thanks,
Keith
I am really stuck with all my contacts in Windows "Contacts" folder and not being able to sync them with my HTC Fuze. I would really appreciate if someone can point me in the right direction or help me out. Thanks.
Now I could be way off here so apologies if that is the case. I think WMDC only deals with Outlook (not Outlook Express). If that is the case then try importing your contacts into Outlook and then re-setting up your sync settings. That might help.
Another thing to consider is to go into Activesync on your device and then options. Look at what it thinks it is syncing. If contacts are already set to sync with something, then uncheck this and run the WMDC connections wizard again. You may find that this time you can select the contacts folder this time.
As I said, I could be way off as I am not a computer guru by any stretch of the imagination. All the best.
Sorry, 1 more thought. You may want to try and uninstal Nokia PC suite-it could be that WMDC sees the contacts being synced with Nokia PC suite and thus wont allow it to sync with your HTC. If you do unistall just remember to back up your contacts etc otherwise you could end up loosing them all. Not good me thinks!
Nokia Suite maintains its own database which is independent of Outlook's. Both can reside on the PC without conflict, however, the OP needs to have the data (Contatcs/Tasks/Notes/Cal, etc) in Outlook to sync to WM devices.
@incisivekeith
Easiest way to deal with this is:
Export out of the PC Suite to csv format (comma separated)
Import into Outlook
Sync with addressbook in outlook (combine records)
Sync with phone using active sync
Thank you everyone for your responses, but I have been struggling with another major issue here now. As I mentioned in my earlier post, I was not able to select contacts and other data in Windows MObile Device Center, so I unstalled WMDC as well as the device driver update. I restarted my system and when I installed both the WMDC driver update and WMDC istself, my system doesn't recognize my Fuze anymore. Not only that, I don't have many options in WMDC now, and, the WMDC window doesn't open most of the times. I have tried uninstalling both of them again, installing their versions from Microsoft's Web site, but to no avail. So now, I have the following problems:
1. I don't have functioning WMDC
2. When I connect my Fuze, it is not recognized, although the system makes a sound that there is something connected on the USB port
3. Vista has Windows Mail, not Outlook or Outlook Express
In response to suggestions about Activesync, I just learned that Activesync is installable only on XP, not Vista. I have been struggling with these issues since today morning. This shouldn't be this difficult, after all.
I will try connecting my Nokia 6620 to my system and try to export the contacts to csv format. When I opened Nokia PC Suite without connecting my Nokia phone, the contacts list showed empty on the Suite, maybe because it doesn't store them on the system, and pulls them out only from the phone? I will find that out too.
If someone can, please let me know how to unistall WMDC properly and reinstall it so that it functions the way it did the first time. Are there any other free software to accomplish this? All the help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Connect Fuze to WMDC
Start - Settings - Connections - USB to PC
If the "Enable adv..." is checked, uncheck or vice versa

Thanks, that somehow helped, I am not sure how, but it did. When I cheched that option off, it again recognized my Fuze as a new device and installed the driver and WMDC, which works fine now, but still doesn't allow me to select contacts, calendar items, etc.
I followed a method here: http://manish.wordpress.com/2008/11/14/importing-contacts-to-windows-mobile-without-ms-outlook/
That method imported all data, with all contacts named "Unknown" and missing the details (phone numbers, address, etc.) of most of the contacts. So, I installed Outlook 2007 and tried to import the csv file in Outlook, but it gave me an error saying its translator was not able to read the csv file (the clipping of the error is attached). I have the following questions now:
1. How do I overcome the importing error
2. How do I sync contacts from Nokia phone directly into Outlook instead of Windows Mail, so that I can have the contacts in Outlook and then, I can just sync Outlook and Fuze.
3. Or, is there a way to have the contacts synced between Windows Mail and Outlook?
Again, thanks for all the help.
@incisivekeith
Haven't had a Nokia for some time but AFAIK the latest PhoneSuite allows you a full sync with outlook.
CSV can be tricky because it may fail at custom fields. Check the CSV file using Excel if you have all headers.
Worst case - take a deep breath and read what google has to say ...

OP, do you have OL installed? Otherwise, get OL and setup your Nokia PC Suite to sync with OL, then you can bring your contact & calendar from the Nokia into OL, then sync to your WM device thereafter. If you are not going to have OL soon, then dump your Nokia contacts onto the SIM and drop the SIM into the WM, but you still need to find a way to "scrub" the data.
Almost the same reply but putting the contacts on the SIM usually truncates add info like long names and multi phone entries. Through outlook would be the best and easiest way IMO.

Agreed, hence the "scrub" I threw that in b/c it appears the OP doesn't have OL readily available.
PHEW , finally!! It took me the whole day to just figure this out, and now I am thinking why I didn't think about this earlier. But I know why, probably because I didn't want to install Outlook just for the purpose of syncing. Anyway, tyguy, you were right that there should be/was a provision in Nokia PC Suite to sync that contacts with Outlook. I had checked all the settings, but I was checking the settings with Windows Mail chosen, I could find that I could choose Outlook only when I decided to create new settings. I synced Nokia phone to Outlook and then Outlook to my Fuze. Almost all the contacts and calendar items are as they are on my Nokia phone, so I am extremely happy. Some of the contacts, very few, are missing the phone numbers, but I can do that manually for that less a number of contacts. Thank you everyone for helping me out. I really appreciate it.
I remember I had to do a lot of work to solve this, and now I want my E90 back, cause all issues of this bad phone. It is not "safe": does not always ring the alarm, appointments gestion is very very bad, contacts sucks.
I have now the trial version of outlook, now it is over on 31/01 and I have no idea hot to do. I can' t syncronize anymore cause I will not pay for Outlook.
The reality is: wm sucks, i' m waiting for android.
PS: I saved contacts then copied one by one in outlook.
(forgive my english)

And well, WM contacts only support 1 mobile number. Lots of contacts i have to register twice! It sucks!
Please could you help me how to solve the problem with the synchronisation the PC (Win XP Prof. SP3 with MS Office Outlook) and the HTC Magician (3.03 WWE with SP1 and SP2 final) via MS ActiveSync 4.5?
An e-mails, contacts, tasks and appointments are not synchronised from MS Office Outlook to the MDA, but the synchronisation of appointments and tasks from the MDA to the PC is working, I can edit in MS Outlook an appointment and task created on the MDA and the change is transferred to MDA.
Please could somebody help me?

Have you checked the active sync settings on your computer and your magician??? Check the outlook settings as it might be set to overwrite the files on the device or maybe the other way around. Hope your clear

Hello Xiyan,
Yes, I have checked the Active Sync settings both on the PC and on the Magician for many times. I do not know what settings of the Outlook do you mean? My Outlook is the part of MS Office Enterprise.
I think that the problem is causes by the Magician because several e-mails (not all) from the PC appear on the Magician. But when I am writing new appointment on the PC it is not synchronising with the Magician.
Please could somebody help me?
Help please

Try deleting the handheld device from the options in Active Sync and connect it again. But active syncing a WM6.1 english device with another non-english device gives a lot of trouble (double entries/folders/sometimes working sometimes not). I just switched to the 3.06 ROM and it seems (and I hope it very much) that this makes it better.
