Is it possbile backup all of contact and email from WM 5.0 to .pst?

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=316981&highlight=backup
How about using the Vista one, because I already my OS to Vista before.
Thanks!
if it got a backup and restore option like activesync used to
then yeah i guess it would work
but i dont understand why they would remove the option from activesync and put it in the vista tool

Hi!
I had my HTC Artemis (with WM6) synced with my Vista PC, all Contacts, Calendar data etc. were synced between Phone and PC.
then I set up my Vista PC completely new. (format C:, fresh vista Install)
Then I wanted to sync my contacts and stuff back to my PC, so i had a backup copy of all data. I established (bluetooth) ActiveSync connection to my PC and tried to get my device paired. it didn't work for some reason...
(I could actually browse the files on my phone, but i couldn't set up sync settings...) So i gave it up, and wanted to try it another time... and then i realized...
DAMN! ALL MY CONTACTS ARE GONE!!!!!
Thats a bit funny because a was worried that my contacts were only on my phone, so I wanted to sync with my PC to create kind of a backup, wich deleted them all! I'm starting to hate windows mobile!
Did enybody encounter a similar problem?
And what could be the reason i cannot sync?
Are you using Windows Mobile Device center or Activsync???
On Vista only Windows Mobile Device center works
I use Windows Mobile Device Center.
but when i open it there comes only a amall diagog titled "Connection settings"
where i can switch on and off bluetooth and usb connections
Hopefully you have a .pst file on your PC with the olod contacts.... would never do anything synching without a backup.

You could try "NS Contacts Backup 1.2" its freeware, might work with WM6 worth a try.
If not try spb backup, you can make a full backup of your PPC or of just your PIM data.
There's also PIMBackup by DotFred. It will also backup your SMS and emails.

Firewall..... XP SP2 included a Firewall which is on by default. ActiveSync should create the relevent execptions, however it would have prompted you to do so. If you said no to this then that will be your problem.
Go to Control Panel, Windows Firewall and look at the Exceptions Tab, there should be four entries for ActiveSync -
ActiveSync Application (C:\Program Files\Microsoft ActiveSync\WCESMgr.exe)
ActiveSync Connection Manager (C:\Program Files\Microsoft ActiveSync\wcescomm.exe)
ActiveSync RAPI Manager (C:\Program Files\Microsoft ActiveSync\rapimgr.exe)
ActiveSync Service (TCP port 26675)
If these aren't there then it won't work. You could just try disabling the Firewall and see if ActiveSync starts to work to prove this before making Firewall changes.

If the Windows Firewall Icon is not displayed in control panel then either you have some other firewall installed and it has removed the Windows one or your PC has some policies applied preventing some control panel applets being displayed. Check if the file 'firewall.cpl' is in the "\Windows\System32" folder. Do you have 'Security Centre' in Control Panel? If you do you can access Firewall Settings from here I think?
Is your PC on a Domain? If it is might be Group Policy that is preventing it. You can do a lot with GP to lock-down what users can do.

I would uninstall the Trend stuff..... My ISP (BT in the UK) has various security add-ons all of which eat system resources like crazy. I installed them once, ended up re-formatting and rebuilding. Never installed them again. It's like the old AOL stuff - once its on there you will never get rid of it....
I suggest you re-install SP2 since this should install the Firewall & Security Centre. If it doesn't I am not sure?

That is so funny and sad at thesame time!
I've been in this battle with Activesync 4.5 couple of days without any clues yet!
I'm pissed of!
I've tried everything such as uninstall, install, uninstall, install...and got nothing!
I have no firewall installed. Only antivirus. No clues. I then post a question to MSDN Windows Mobile team and we are still lookin for a solution. Even if I disable network improvement in settings tab, it doesn't work.
So, I have to say that we are stuck on the same chip!
If I remember correctly, the latest build of Activesync 4.5 is compatible only with Outlook 2003 and newer even though the MS Description says XP is ok. I had the same problem previously.. upgraded to 2003 and presto...
Sometimes contacts do not sync,as there may be a contact with corrupt info,try to locate it and remove it,or backup/transfer all your contacts to your PC using PIMbackup and delete the contacts file/folder all together from your phone.Delete partnership both in PC and phone,work as 'Guest' and see if it works.
Or try out this entry,it helped me once,when I cudn't sync:-
Click Start > Run and type the following: Regsvr32.exe %Windir%\System32\ole32.dll
Click OK
Reboot your PC.
Sync again.
Hope it'll solve the problem,
I wish that only contacts do not sync. In my case, the whole options under 4.5 are not working. I'm using Outlook 2007.
Still looking for a solution.....

Dude....jus....DOWNLOAD the SERVICE PACK 2 FROM microsoft site....
EVEN IF U HAV WINDOWS XP SP2....install the SERVICE PACK 2 again....
N it will work...
I had the same problem....none of the things used to SYNC....
But..now after sp2 install agn......its works fine....wid.....OUTLOOK 2007....
Trend Micro & Activesync
Trend Micro Office Scan DOES NOT WORK with Activesync 4.5. Trend Micro themselves acknowledge this.
Not sure about PC-cillin, but Office Scan is architected in a way that means it just can't work with Activesync.
Trend Micro have announced a Beta in Oct/Nov that is claimed to resolve the problem.
Thanks mate, but I still haven't had a progress by doing that!
Dunno what else I can do it to sync.

I've had issues sync'ing with different WM6 builds. Can you back your data using PIMBackup and try a different cooked ROM? Unfortunately I did not spend a whole lot if time trying to fix the issue when I realized I could sync outlook2007/vista just fine using a different build.

PIMbackup will only backup your contacts and messages,but if you are interested to backup the whole dats and settings than try one of these :-
SPB Backup - http://www.spbsoftwarehouse.com/products/backup/?en
Sprite Backup - http://www.spritesoftware.com/pocketpc.php
Sunnysoft Backup Manager - http://www.sunnysoft.com/software.php?idarticle=51
delete your current outlook mail profiles and delete your active sync profiles
http://forums.microsoft.com/TechNet/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=772465&SiteID=17
may help.
Careful tho, cause I had somewhat the same problem, and now i just lost all my contacts on my phone, but active sync now syncs!

Thanks, this worked perfectly for me. Using a TMO Wing/WinXPSP3/Outlook07
I wanted to save all the SMS(important ones) so I can search data afterwards from this device.
I tried to install JEYO software, but it did not help me at all.
Is there some way I can do this?
Cheers!
Gonçalo
Jeyo should work, connect it to your PC, and connect it via ActiveSync, then proceed to /Windows and there should be SMSExpress.exe, open it, and open Outlook on your PC, it should get connected
But it did not work. I don't know why.
Is there any other way to do this?
I hope it will help you, but its not free.
I did try the Jeyo software. But it did not sync.
I created a separate Outlook profile so it would not have anything to be bothered with.
I tried to sync, but no sync... I can sync emails, contacts, everything.
Not the SMS's!!
stupid WM6
Any other options?
I haven't tried it but you could give this a go : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=324684
Hi,
I am wondering if there are any additional files I can or need to delete in order to start afresh with a new sync setup i.e. delete all contents and history on my computer of my current WMDC profile. I want to hard reset my phone soon and start from scratch. The old Activsync 4.2 had some files in Windows under user profile, but I cannot seem to find this with WMDC. Is it the same or can I assume that once I delete a profile from WMDC program, all history and files are automatically deleted? I am running Windows Vista SP1 and WMDC 6.1
Thanks for your help.
