PocketCM not syncing to Outlook properly - General Topics

Tried a search. Didn't find anything. The Pocketcm.com forums had one post like this, but no answers. Guess I'll try here myself.
Whenever I use PocketCM (.17) to add a picture to one of my contacts that contact ends up subsequently erroring when syncing with outlook 2007.
I downloaded and tried Inesoft Address book and it loaded the picture and synced just fine. So it seems to be how PocketCM manages the saved data, or lack thereof.
Has anyone else had this problem? Does anyone else have a better idea on how to add high quality pictures to contacts that sync nicely in Outlook?
Thanks

ActiveSync Trashed Notes

Ok, I'm not sure if this is the place for this question or not ... but I would appreciate some guidance.
I have the Verizon XV6800 running WM6. I have ActiveSync setup. ActiveSync alone does a horrible job of syncing. It left most of my contacts out for whatever reason. So I installed PocketMirror and all my contacts sync no problem. I still have one tiny problem and am clueless about this.
Many of my contacts have notes. These sync from the PC to the phone just fine. But if I edit the notes on the phone, all newlines are removed when it syncs back to the PC. The notes look good on the phone but are now useless on the PC since every line runs together.
So if my contact's notes are
one
two
three
And I add "four" to the list using my phone, after syncing, it will become:
onetwothreefour
on my PC.
This feels like a solveable problem. But I don't have any idea where to look for this. Is it an Office 2003 setting? Is it an ActiveSync registry entry?
When I emailed PocketMirror, they responded and said:
"PocketMirror can synchronize additional contact folders. Are you using additional contact folders?". Why they hell they are asking me that? Who cares if I have extra folders or not. My question is about corrupted notes synchronizations.
I am also open to alternatives to ActiveSync or other solutions. I just want everything to work in both directions. Calendar, contacts, tasks, files, etc.
If anyone has any ideas, please let me know. If this is the wrong forum for this question, I apologize.
Thanks

Not all outlook contacts syncing

Hi all. I hope someone out there can help me. I am having a big headache with outlook at the moment. I am using a T-mobile touch plus with Outlook 2007 since Febuary and have had no problems with the device syncing using Activesync. Within the last week I plugged my touch in and Active sync said that I need to resync all contacts, I have no idea why, and when it synced it left out almost half the contacts. I have looked through all the contacts that didn't sync and can not see any pattern in why they haven't synced and other have. I don't think that I have changed anything on the phone, outlook or activesync. The contacts still exist in outlook. Activesync 4.5 has no settings for contacts to choose what to sync. I have tried to play with the catorgries to see if that made any difference. All the contacts are in the same contact folder as I only have one personal folder. I can not figure it out, and would love some help as I have lost all the usefull contacts on my phone. Please help!!! Cheers in advanced

Calendar birthdays issue

Hi there!
I realised that some of my contacts' birthdays never appear in the calendar, as others do... Why is this happening? In some contacts I set the birthday date but it never appears in the calendar. Do you have the same problem? Is there a way to solve it?
Thanks!
before check it with PIM Birthdayz (www.pdagear.net, it is free).
After (i use it) active "David Andr Birthdays" http://www.pdagold.com/software/list.asp?s=AUTH:David+Andr%9A
it' s free and very nice
Thanks for the response.
Isn't there a way to solve it without installing more applications?
I had a similar problem, so I exported all my contacts from Outlook to an excel file, double checked date formats for birthdays, deleted all contacts from outlook and imported them back from the excel file. It worked for me..give it a try. good luck

sync 2 calendars

Hi
I'm using a WM6.1 device and would like to sync at least the calendar with two exchange servers (2003 SP2). Ideally, i also would like to sync the contacts.
so:
ExchangeWORK <-> WM6.1 <-> ExhangeHOME
Anyone a solution please?
my thanks
Patrick
Not sure this will work, I was going to do something similar, with having all business contacts and appts. on my office computer and peronal on my notebook. The problem is, it's possible everything will get mixed together. So let's say you start with your work server, and all the info is on, now when you sync your home server, it will also grab the work info as well, now you'll just have everything twice, on both servers and your phone. The problem is, it syncs all data in the phone.
This is exactly what i want, just duplicate the date on my workcompu, homecompu and wm6 device.
Problem is that through activesync you can only sync your data (email, contacts, calendar, etc) with one partnership.
but i managed the above by using workaround
i use google calendar sync now and this works nicely
so on my workpc my exchange calendar is synced with my google calendar
and the same trick on my home pc.
not ideal, but it works nicely
now i have to find something for syncing my contacts
any sugestions?
thks
Patrick
I'm not sure about using an Exchange Server, never used myself, but after setting up the one, have you already tried setting up the other?
Also, there is a good chance this will duplicate everything though. Once the second server picks up the info from the first, it will all go back to the first when you sync with it, and visa versa.

google sync

has anyone successfully got this to sync on fuze?? Thanks for your help.
I Timing was perfect, the truth was just the first synchronization with the phone for GPRS.
Contacts synchronized for a long time (196 contacts) for about 15 minutes
I Diddnt know googlesync had a version for PPC yet.. But i have had no issues at all with neuvasync.com for my contacts & calander from google & I just use Pocket Outlook for the email.
I set up for the management of Google
http://www.google.com/mobile/default/sync.html
Calendar syncs with Thunderbird, contacts, too, with the help of a plugin Google Contacts
I can get it to sync, more or less, with my Polaris. It will display an error, but as far as I can see my whole calender is synced.
I have seen quite many posts that get the same error and it seems it has something to do with Googles Exchange server. But don't ask me, I don't know how the stuff works
thanx for the help
I went to the link on google already and still couldn't get it to work. Anyone tried the service yet?
Google Sync works fine on my X1, just followed the instructions and it worked. Only issue I had was the format it brought some contacts accross as (e.g Surname, Forename not Forname Surname)
