Please help.
I have an XDA2i and I'm running Active Sync 4.2.0. When I try to sync, everything works fine, except I cannot select calander as a sync option with my XDA. Where I would normally go into options and check the box for calendar, there is no check box.
This is really starting to do my nut in as I've tried creating a new profile but the problem follows the profile. Any suggestions would be mostly appreciated.
Thanks
Have you got a default calendar set-up in outlook?
Yes...it used to work. It suddenly stopped allowing any synchronization, that's when I created a new profile for the XDA2i and updated to 4.2 but it will now not synchronize Calendar. It will sync the Contacts & tasks but the most important thing for my work is the Calendar.
Thanks
Calander problem and other queries
Hi I have had an xda2i in the past and it all worked fine with the Calander. This week my newer model xdamini S broke down so I turned to the replacment xda2i i had been sent when the other one packed up and I just cant get it to recognise the calander. Its just not in the list. As you say contacts etc is there but Calander is not. The strange thing is when setting up connection you can choose to sync with calander, contacts etc which I select only to find that once the sync occurs Calander is just not in the list. Can anyone you had anyone help solving this?? Im using outlook 2003. Also the xda2i im using has not got the latest drivers I have looked for them on the 02 site but they dont seem to be their anymore. Finally, what does the radio version do anyway? Help with these issues would be greatly appreciated.
Right then....
...The only workaround I have managed to find is simple...
1) Remove the ActiveSync software and all pairings
2) Hard Reset the XDA2i (yes, that means everything is lost is nothing has sync'd)
3) Re-install ActiveSync and recreate the partnership again.
It seems drastic, but since doing that the XDA2i now functions perfectly. Hope this helps some people (I'm reluctant to try anything like this on my new Mini S cos I can't get it to partner up at all..but that's another thread )
I've been using I-mate Jamin for more than a year now with few problems in Syncing my Outlook (Calendar, Contacts, Tasks, Notes.. )
Recently, the device started slowing down considerably, and failed to sync with Outlook. I did a hard reset & started all over. after many trials & hard resets, the problem kept arising, and I discovered that the problem occurs when I sync the Calendar to the device.
So I decided to sync only the past 6 months of Appointments instead of the whole thing. Turns out this is not the problem. I narrowed down the Problem to Birthdays. When I sync the Birthdays, the problem happens, all other Calendar appointments are OK.
I tried deleting all Birthdays and recreating them one by one (by re-saving the contacts that contain Birthdays) thinking that I have some corrupt ones, but even that didn't solve the problem. The newly created Birthdays still slowed down the device & prevented Sync and i even had to Hard reset the device again..
I can't figure out the problem at all.. these birthdays were on my device for the whole year, I didn't change anything subtle (like new ROM or new Application).. the problem just happened out of the Blue and I can't seem to solve it... I even tried syncing the Birthdays one by one.. the problem seems random, and to prove it, I re-created the birtdays as I said above..
Can anyone help???
Hi all, I have a sync problem here just wonder if anyone has the same problem. I installed Faria's WM6 some time back and it was fine syncing with XP. Recently I upgraded my XP to vista and installed mobile device synchronisation center and I tried to sync with outlook 2007.
The device seemed to be unable to sync as the sync center said syncing in progress for a long long time. I waited 1 hour once before I unplugged it. I found that by selecting only files and notes, I was able to sync in less than 5 minutes. However if I selected to sync contacts, tasks or calendars the device would be unable to sync. I created a new outlook data file which was empty and tried to sync again but unsuccessful. I hope not to have to do a hard reset to try to sync so if anyone got any ideas I would be happy to try them.
you could try syncing to MS Excgange server for now (port88.org) ... for calendr,try goosync
i dont require email sync and i dont really want to have to find individual solutions for calendar, contacts or tasks. any other suggestions to solve my syncing issue?
Hello,
I have tried searching but everyone is saying to backup my contacts via active sync. Well I have loaded active sync and well when I try to manage the connection, it won't let me click the box for "contacts". I can sync pictures etc but not contacts.
I don't have any #'s on the sim card because I haven't gotten around to fixing the phone to hide the sim contacts.
Is this the issue? Or is there something I don't have set right?
I did the Noob ATT remove bloatware guide and nothing else.
Thanks
i cant get active sync to update my contacts, like always, it replaces all new info i enter into previously saved contacts with the ones already stored on my PC, it is pissing me off cuz i never had such a problem with my iphone, had this exact problem with the HTC 8125 and thats why i had jump on the iphone bandwagon
hi guys,
I started having this problem last friday.
I had my omnia 7 synced with windows live - i keep my emails, contacts and calendar there and sync it live with my phone.
Last friday suddenly all of my contacts have dissapeared from people hub (ok, not all - facebook contacts where still there, but all of my live contacts (800 positions) was gone!!!
It is stil available on my live account, but it just doesnt sync contacts with my mobile anymore.
When you go to accounts it says there is some problem and it keeps trying to sync but no luck.
It did happen to me on wm6.5 and gmail sync before - but there i could do resetup - disable syncing, clear all sync options and enable it again - it used to solve wm6.5 problem but does not help with current issue.
anyone else experiencing similar issues?
I just did phone reset and configured everything again - still no luck with hotmail contacts ;( everything else from live syncs well...
That's a new one...

First I've heard of such an issue. Pretty strange, actually.
Couldn't find any info on the Windows Live site. Your carrier tech support might be a good option.
Good luck.
hmm I don't think it's operator issue.
Even when I restart the phone from factory settings and work on wifi only the problem persists....
Depending on which account I choose in email&accounts settings I manage to sync different parts of information like my live profile picture, my hotmail emails are being synced but not the contacts.
I have 828 contacts in my live account, but when I go to SETTINGS\EMAIL&ACCOUNT I see LIVE connection greyed out and synchronizing.
it keeps syncing contacts it says, but something must be wrong as it never stops (it goes far beyond my 828 contacts - wright now it says it is sycning contact no 15498 )
