syncing with mac - Touch Pro, Fuze General

I am an avid mac user and was wondering if anyone elese on her uses one with winmo phones? how do i sync my phone to my mac or better yet get it to show up on my mac so i can add program, movies, songs, ect.
thanks in advance

anyone
anyone???????

Yeah sure, I posted on bluetooth syncing with mac which I later figured out how to. I use the missing sync which works wonderful, If you need to figure out how to use bluetooth read my other post here or PM me, cheers

yeah i am on the freeware side of things thanks for that though at least there are a few programs out there that i can rely on if needbe

You should definitely check out Missing Sync. It's well worth the money, IMO. I haven't seen any "freeware" that has anywhere close to the same functionality.

so i got VMWare Fusion 2 and am working on getting it to sync in my windows window and will keep you guys updated on how that works out

You can also use Syncmate, the basic version is for free.

I'd be interested to hear about that. Have you considered using crossover (it's probably what I would use if I needed to install some windows apps on my mac). Why haven't you just bought the missing sync??? Let me know how you like it and also for what apps do you use it? cheers

Does the full version transfer all my phone contacts with pictures? The same goes for my songs on iTunes?
Please let me know.

Missing synch does it's job partially here. It refuses to synch my calender with Entourage, and with calender.app...
No idea why.

I use missing sync too. syncs everything perfectly with entourage 2008 (12.1.0). Even time sync.
Have only used USB though, didnt try bt yet.
Also, it keeps whining that the computername of my macbook is too long -_-
Still, great program

yeah i was going to get missing sync but my i got a copy of windows for free and vmware i had laying around. the only problem i have is that i cant get windows to open discs..
also is there any way to use the front camera to take pictures?
also is there an AIM app out that will work over wifi?

Fixed this yesterday. After removing all calenders except the entourage one in iCal it worked.

Question:
How do I copie Files to the Storagecard, using the phone, instead of the extract Micrisd-connect to MBPro?
In other words, how do I make OSX see my phone as storage?

As you connect your phone you'll see three options, active sync, disk drive and internet sharing. Selecting disk drive does exactly what you need

WLM connection problem
I also tested this WLM version.
Seems to be working good, login is quick, merging of WLM and Outlook-contacts is a good thing.
My problem: After some hours running, it seems to lose connection with GPRS.
I have to soft-reset my wizard to get a connection to WLM
After the reset i can connect / sync again with WLM..
So far no luck. Running Faria's WM6 and it installed okay (though very slow) and rebooted. After that I run it and it only says Sign in to Windows Live. I click it but it never connects. I've tried it through both wifi and edge. Gonna reboot my phone and see if that helps, otherwise I'm going to hope the server is down or something. Although, come to think of it, I had similar problems with previous versions too. Maybe I'm doing something wrong, who knows. I really hope I can get this working. The inability to merge WLM and Outlook contact lists is what has kept me from using it so far. If this has that fixed and I can get it to work consistently, I'm in happyville.
Edit: Rebooting fixed the connection issue. Still doesn't do what I want though. It won't take my outlook contacts and add them to Live Messenger, for instance. You would think it wouldn't be that hard to have it read the IM field in the contacts to do so. Also while it did successfully merge one of my contacts, others had duplicates. For instance, my wife has her name entered one way in WLM and I had it another. It created a duplicate for her. Both had the IM address listed as ****@hotmail.com. So, it is a slight improvement, but not there yet. I want full synchronization between Outlook and WLM. I also want to be able to add a Windows Live mail acct to my existing passport but I'm not holding my breath for that one.
Worked perfectly for me, except the fact I dont like having all my MSN contacts in my phonebook forced upon me.
is it possible to install this version on top of the WLM that already existed on cooked rom? (xplore 1.1) Or is there any way to uninstall previous version?
thanks!
WLM - how do I get rid of it?
I made the mistake of installing (ahem, "running" the thing from the Programs folder) WLM (from the RUU_mUn_aRTM_10_2_0_8_WWE-Fixed.exe ROM), and it has seriously messed up a previously good setup...
1) I can't uninstall it - this is a _bug_! It seems to insinuate itself through Windows and I can't make it stop connecting my EDGE connection..
2) Because it seems to do something to connect the EDGE connection, it also seems to prevent me from receiving incoming calls.
3) It seriously slows down my 8125.
This is not specific to this beta version but i get the defbrowser errors when trying to open links from emails also pushmail does not work reliably it often says sign in failed / sync failed. The only way to get it & messenger working again is to clear the password in account options any ideas how to fix this?
WIll not install
Guys can you help me install this please?
Whenever i run the installer on my XP SP1 machine, it does not detect that i am connected to Activesync. I am however, connected to it via USB. The installer just keeps giving the message "Connection error. Make sure ActiveSync is running"
I have tried it on 2 machines now and both have the same result.
Windows Live for Windows Mobile : 116.6.0030.2100

MSN Online Contacts removed...when login..YES
Took microsoft long enough to finally have the option to not add msn online contact to your contacts on the phone. Sweet.! love this new version logs in faster.
what is the exact version of this, and i didn't understand, is it notify for contacts comming online!!!
Anyway of getting a CAB of this?

The exe above has the cab in it. Just start the install from your PC, but when it comes up on your phone, don't click on anything. Now with your PC (or with TotalCommander) do a search for *.cab and you'll find the cab. Make a copy of it, and you have your cab file that you can put on your storage card or where ever.
Tks for the info mfrazzz! Always learning
I tried getting the cab, but it didnt work. It installed right away without asking any confirmation.
Can anyone post the cab file?
Thanks
... Never mind.. I found it on my PC.
Thanks alot.

You must not be running a custom rom then, as most all of them stop to ask you where to install the cab, and don't delete the cabs after install.
thanks, works ok for me. glad the contacts issue has been sorted, its much nicer than Pocket MSN. i couldnt find the .cab but the .exe installed fine via my pc.
is this a beta? the install said it was a beta.

PocketMSN

Can any one upload pocketmsn cab only without windows live search etc.
I'd like it too.
WM6 Live Messenger sucks. It's almost impossible to change profile on that new version. I counted 19 steps.
PocketMSN_WM5_by_NiTroGen.cab isn't working for me.

I tried with both installed at the same time. So the answer to your question is: Fine .
As a test I did log 2 different profiles on each program on the same machine and did chat one with the other without any problem.
My usage will be to set one with my profile and the other with the profile of my daughter. When I travel with my family, I'll lend her my phone. She will easily connect and not mess my settings.
That is great. I am going to do that as soon as a Flash another Rom. Great idea.
Thanks
File Size on this download is only 384kb. I tried installing and only installs partially. I compared with other PocketMSN cabs and the others are over 1mb. Something must be wrong with this.

Remote Connection

Hi guys,
I've flashed my phone with the .405 euro firmware however seem to have lost remote desktop, does anyone know where this will be or how I can find the cab and reinstall it?
Many thanks.
You have this one:-
http://www.koushikdutta.com/search/label/Omnipresence
or
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=425627&highlight=remote+desktop
but i haven't tried either yet.
Let me know how you get on plz
ta m8,
The real windows remote desktop is definitely best because windows will scale all your windows and is really responsive, however you may have concurrent login issues if you try to use your pc at the same time!
The other is more like VNC where you view an existing login, however that then begs the question why not use a mobile VNC program as it's well established and more supported. I'd say the good thing about omnipresence is it attempts to use touchflow navigation concepts but at the moment the response is slow, could be good in the future though.

That might explain, that when I try and remote onto my PC it tells me the UN or PW is incorrect. (I know it isn't).. Is this because I'm logged in?
It should log you out on your pc when you try to connect i think

How did you have to hack Vista plz.. I'm also using that OS, so might be the same problem?
I'm useing RDM+ instead from Shape service.
Much simpler and no need to configure and firewalls.. downside is that it aint free. But then again it's a one time fee, all other upgrades are free.
lots of functions too like file upload and download. And the person that is online dosen't get log out.
Imo it's a really good application.
Again either using RDT or Logmein.com , It says user name or password incorrect.
I know its not, coz thats what I use to log into the system!!!
Any ideas, this is a real puzzler1

Awesome, HTC has impressed me with their obvious care for their customers (despite not designing the phone that is extremely attractive). Kudos to HTC for their hard work making Android a great platform
htc sync
for those of us with Haykuro's built mounted to their g1 like me and my friends.
their is a htc sync program out their you can get it from http://www.htc.com/tw/SupportViewNew...64&news_id=167 . i thought i might post it up here.
I think you mean:
http://www.htc.com/www/SupportViewNews.aspx?dl_id=564&news_id=167
Does it actually work? If so, does it only work on those builds with the HTC framework? (Not that I personally need it. lol)
It totally messed up my phone ASH!!! My computer wouldn't even detect my phone after i install the program. I tried removing it and it was giving me some x86 errors lol. So i had to do a system restore to get my phone drivers back..
Direct link
did you download the latest drivers too?
Can someone upload the HTCSYnc101.zip to another mirror ?please . thanks in advance.

The drivers do not seem to work for me on Windows 7 64 bit, so I guess I will have to wait
I don't think I will be using it often.
It just duplicated all my contacts, so I went into googlemail and deleted all contacts...re-synced and it deleted all contacts out of outlook 2007.
fortunatly i took a back up of my PST file before hand
Yep same thing here drivers not compatible with SEVEN 32bit :s but don't worry
launching the command
ADB remount (from the sdk)
then launching HTCSync on pc
then HTCSync on device and he find the phone

Has anybody been able to get Sync working on non-Haykuro builds? It installs fine, but doesn't work...I need to check logcat.
So what does this do, just sync contacts and thats it??
yup, just contacts...bit dissapointing really, I was hoping for a proper sync solution with calender, tasks, memos etc.
It is only builds based on the HTC fw, not google's fw. Which is why it works with Haykuros stuff...and the Hero Beta

[REQ] Best remote sync app? A la Dropbox, etc.

As a long time user of Dropbox, I wish there was an easier way to access my files instead of having to go on the web interface. I detest having to plug my phone into my computer, and actually as of recently, my computer locks up when I plug it in while the WM OS is running (go figure.) No mention of anything in the event log, just nothing. Bootloader works fine so my flash addiction is still valid
Anyways, I see options like Sugarsync (2 computer limit) or Live Mesh (no idea) as possible alternatives that have a WinMo client. Does anyone have any recommendations?

Don't get me wrong - it works, but a native app is better no?

Untested, but try this:

The above link does not work anymore, to get it on your phone do the following:
1. using youe MOBILE PHONE browser go to http://www.mesh.com
2. Click the Login button (if you already have an account, if not get yourself a live account)
3. Once logged in you will see your device wheel click on the orange plus icon to add a device.
4.At the bottom of the dialog you will a link for 'Live mesh for mobile devices' click it.
5. You will then get to a page whihc explains how to install, click on the link in option 2 and it will download a cab for you.
6. Install the cab
7. Run live mesh from your start menu, there will be a message about security (you have to be quick on this step) Check the 'don't show this message again' checkbox and click ok.
8. Enter your live login details and check all of the checkboxes bellow.
Job Done!
Can't get it work with your method. When I log in to mesh.com with my HTC HD2(LEO) I can't se any options for mobile. Only Windows xp and Vista in the drop-down menu, and in the text it says that Windows mobile coming soon.
Anything I do wrong? Tested in both Opera and IE.
Thanks.
Also hope Dropbox soon wil launch a Windows mobile application
Try Kinoma, there is a plug in for box.net and web.dav it works perfekt for me.
