Integrating with Sharepoint via Outlook 2003 on Vista - General Questions and Answers

Hi,
I'm looking for a phone that will sync with my sharepoint folders on outlook 2003 (eg contacts, calendars), without needing to use chapura pocketmirror (which doesn't seem to be very compatible with vista??)
Does anyone do this? What phone do you use? My old ipaq 2210 used to do it using pocketmirror with no worries - but my treo 750 doesn't like it at all.
Any advice?
Cheers,
Steve

Windows XP / Lotus Notes @ work, Vista / Windows Mail @ home. Sync?

Sorry for the long title, it was the best I could come up with.
First, the facts:
My work PC uses Windows XP and Lotus Notes 6.5.
My home computer is Vista Business, Outlook is NOT installed.
My phone is (well, will be, when it arrives) a Cingular 8125/HTC Wizard. From what I can gather on the forums, I have the option of running WM5 or WM6.
I only care about syncing my contacts and calendar, email is of no concern.
My questions are:
Is it possible to sync contacts and calendar info in the above scenario? From a few posts I read here and elsewhere, it seems you need to install Outlook in order to sync to Vista.
If this is possible, what mix of software will allow this?
I support I'd prefer WM6 for my device, but for no real reason other than being "the latest". Would I be better served sticking to WM5?
If I *have* to install Outlook at home to get this working, what version would be best? Would Outlook 2007 be able to import my existing rules/filters, messages, etc?
Am I missing anything else?
Thanks!
-Brett.

I have done some searching and I'm familiar with Easysync Pro. I'm running an older version now for my Pocket PC 2002 PDA now. (v4.22). The latest version has the following requirements...
Supported mobile devices:
Microsoft Pocket PC 2000 / 2002 / 2003 / Microsoft Windows Mobile 5.0 for Pocket PC devices (ActiveSync)
Looks like it's not ready for WM6?

Do you have any personal experience with this?
I checked out the vendor's site and it looks promising:
Compatible Devices:
...- Windows Mobile 5 & 6
However:
Works with applications:
- Microsoft Outlook 98, 2000, 2002, 2003, 2007
- Lotus Notes R5, 6.0, 6.5, 7.0
- Novell Groupwise 6.5 SP2/7.0
- Lotus Organizer 5.0, 6.0, 6.1
- ACT! 2000, 5.0, 6.0
Looks like I'd have to install Outlook at home. Not a huge deal, but Windows Mail is working fine for us.
Thanks,

There might be a simpler solution: try one (or more) of the online syncing services. Many are free, some have paid adds-ons that are even more useful, and best - no extra software to install.
I haven't tried them myself yet -- but planning to do so soon -- but I want try mobical.net, zyb.com, and plaxo.com (in that order).
If anyone has links to good, informative reviews to these 3 services, I'm eager to see them.
"Do you have any personal experience with this?"
nop just did the search dont have any exp with notes
EasySync Pro is working well for WM6.
fyi .. I am using Atom Exec. Windows XP with Lotus Notes 7.0 and EasySync 4.2.4
IBM / Lotus have recently released EasySync 4.2.5 - but you have to pay for it...
Pity I didn't find that out before my Kaiser arrived today!

Can anyone give a suggestion to a fix.

PIM Software that doesnt share "Office mobile" database

Hello all,
I'm looking for a PIM Software (mainly calendar, contacts) under WM6 that runs completely separate from the integrated office mobile. So it should have sort of an own entry in activesync to tell what exactly to sync to that software independently.
I allready had a look to Agenda One and Pocket Informant, but all of these share the exisiting databases of WM's internal office mobile.
When looking at sync tools from chapura or intellisync, they offer advance sync possibilites, but dont support other applications on the ppc than office mobile !?
Any ideas ?
Thanks in advance,
Joe
Maybe look into old software of wm2003 era. im sure theres some primitive simple solution.
What about 4.0 student or the dog ate it... i know they are student planners but maybe just maybe independent.

Have you considered tying google calendar into pocket outlook via oggsync and for contacts I do all my adds/removes via the dashwire app from a pc.

Syncing with Outlook

I have just installed Outlook 2007 on a new laptop and it is working fine. I have established a sync connection between my Polaris (WM 6.0) and the laptop using Windows Mobile Device Center. However, appointments do not carry into Calendar in Outlook. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

[Q] onenote mobile 2010 missing in windows mobile device centre sync content settings

Hey guys.
I've been looking around for a solution to this problem, including on these forums,with little luck.
I am using office 2010 on my server 2008 r2 machine and office mobile 2010 on my windows mobile 6.5 device. both have onenote 2010 installed (mobile version on ppc) and i would very much like to be able to sync my notes.
However, when i try to set onenote to be one of the things for Windows Mobile Device Center to sync, it simply is not there. everything other sync option is present (contacts, calendar, e-mail, tasks, notes, favourites, files) but onenote is not.
i found a solution posted that worked for office 2007 and onenote 2007 here that involved adding registry keys:
ttp://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-474538.html
but i do not believe this would work for office 2010 as the directories are different and the files mentioned there do not exist in my 2010 installation.
if anyone could suggest a fix for this it would be most appreciated.
thanks in advance

Hi,
Sorry, no solution but exact the same problem. I tried to import these regkeys too without success.
Perhaps somebody who is successfully running onenote 2010 with sync can post this regkeys here?
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows CE Services\SpecialDefaults\PocketPC04\Services\Synchronization\Objects\OneNote Note]
and
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows CE Services\SpecialDefaults\SmartPhone\Services\Synchronization\Objects\OneNote Note]
I tried to fix the problem:
- reinstalling WMDC
- repairing Office 2010
- deleting parship
I am using a 32-Bit Version of Office 2010, so I think the MS KB article is not important: hxxp://support.microsoft.com/?scid=kb%3Ben-us%3B982458&x=21&y=12
Thanks

onenote 2010 sync help (sort of)
I have attached two .reg files from windows 7 which show the values in the registry keys requested by vodafone.
I had been successfully using OneNote 2007 mobile on my Tilt to sync with OneNote 2007 on Windows 7 via WMDC 6.1 since 2009. I upgraded to 2010 on Windows 7 and recently bought a Tilt2 and installed ENERGY standard 23678 (Aug 22). When running WMDS, the option to sync Onenote was still there as before (I did not reinstall WMDC). However, Onenote 2010 Mobile would not sync with Onenote 2010 on PC. I am not sure what made the difference, by I deleted the mobile notebook on my PC, re-established the partnership between PC and Tilt2 and selected the OneNote sync option in WMDC. On sync operation, a new mobile notebook was NOT created. I rebooted the PC and tried sync again and this time the notebook was created on the PC (go figure). However, the notes would not sync until after I changed the properties of the mobile notebook (in Onenote on the PC) to be 2007 format. After I did this, the notes successfully sync'd in both directions as they did on Onenote 2007 and the Tilt.
I know this doesn't give you much concrete info for solving your problems, but I can tell you that I do have it working between Onenote 2010 on PC and Onenote 2010 mobile on a Tilt2 running the latest ENERGY Rom (connected via USB).
See attached Windows 7 .reg files which contact the values vodafone requested, but not sure they will be any help to you.
Hello tomstilt2008,
Thank you for uploading the regkeys and for sharing your experiences with us!!
Unfortunately adding the regkeys to my PC did not solve the problem. OneNote "Icon" appears now in WMDC but it gives an error message during sync: "OneNote: Attention". No more details are logged.

Perhaps this has something to do with our office versions? I am using Office 2010 Professional Plus ver 14.0.4760.1000 (32-Bit).
This solved my problem, thank you SO MUCH DUDE!!!
