Windows (Vista) Contacts/Calendar and WM6? - General Questions and Answers

Hi there,
is there any possibility to sync Windows Mobile 6 with "Windows Contacts" and "Windows Calendar" which is included in WinVista? I know, ActiveSync isn't able to do that (it needs Outlook), but I hope, that there is any programmar, who wanted this too and has coded a tool. I mean, there are some sync-tools for Mozilla & Co...
Any idea?

Post Scriptum: Sorry for my baaad english. :mrgreen:

so you want to synchronize contact and calendar with vista? or am i wrong?

Vista has an integrated calendar and contactmanager ("Windows Calandar" and "Windows Contacts"). I want to sync with these tools, and not with outlook.

Sync with Vista Contacts, Calendar, Mail?

As being a Vista user, I was wondering if there exist a way to synchronize my Prophet with the integrated Windows Contacts and Windows Calendar app's instead of Office Outlook?
Mobile device center picked this up on my wifes computer because office outlook was never installed. Try uninstalling outlook, unpair your device (delete profile) from MDC and then try it again.
It won't sync... My Polaris was paired prior to installing Outlook, and it didn't work at all....
I did try to uninstall Outlook (wich was no problem) and unpaired my device.
When I tried to setup the relationship again, WMDC grayed out the options to sync Contacts, Agenda etc. because "Outlook is not installed".
Pitty......
To my knowledge, Windows Mobile will only sync locally with Outlook.
My girlfriend's Vista laptop does not have Outlook installed and I am unable to sync calendar/contacts etc using that PC.
My Vista laptop has Outlook installed and it sync's perfectly fine.
I posted this same question on the Microsoft boards and the moderator stated what we expected: syncing is only possible with Outlook.
So, that's it then, back to Outlook! (I like clean systems......)

Windows Mobile 6.5 and Exchange Contact Syncronization

I am new to the forum so forgive me if this is common knowledge. Does Windows Mobile 6.5 allow you to syncronize multipled Exchange contact folders? In Windows Mobile 6.1 you can only syncronize your main Outlook contact folder. I need to be able to syncronize "sub" contact folders as well.
Thank you.

[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!!!

[Q] Problem Synchronisation WP7 <-> Outlook via Hotmail Connector

Hey guys,
as the topics says I have a problem to synchronize my HTC Mozart (WindowsPhone) with MS Outlook 2003. I use Windows Vista 32bit.
I downloaded the hotmail-connector from microsoft, installed it and set it up. But as soon as I click on the new installed live-folder in my Outlook I get an error message which says: "Unable to display the folder. Microsoft Office Outlook could not access the specified folder location."
screenshot
Do you have any idea, what could cause this problem?
Thanks and greetings from Germany
This thread might present the solution for my problem.
It seems that you must default you hotmail account in outlook, then close and reopen outlook, inorder to use outlook connector.

I'll report later if it worked.
Of course I would be pleased about a better solution then setting the hotmail account to default.
To let you know: It worked.
