WM 6 contacts count - General Topics

Hi, is there a possibility to see how many contacts are on my Kaiser with WM6? I'm not sure if I go to SIM manager, does it count some contacts as two entries if the contact has a home number and mobile number.

WM5 - More than one mobile Number per person?

Hello,
I have the following problem: some of my contacts have more than one mobile phone number. In my palm, I could have 2-3-4 mobile numbers under each name, but transferring over to the Pocket PC I only have the choice of 1 number.
This is not an issue if you are just calling them, but I can't send them a txt on their other numbers unfortunately - only the main mobile number appears.
I've tried adding more Mobile number categories into Outlook, but they don't transfer through to my PocketPC (T-mobile MDA Vario)
Does anyone know a way around this? I need to:
1) Have more than 1 mobile phone number per person
2) Be able to transfer these categories back and forth to Outlook using Activesync.
Thank you,
Loukas
I have more than one mobile number in my contacts, they get stored under things like work number, fax number, pager number (because nobody has any of those anymore!)
I think you can have mobile number 2 etc as well, ive not had a problem with it ever.
What version of outlook do you use? You should try the latest one, its better anyway.
Hey Pyrofer,
The problem is that if you have them installed under Work, or Home etc, they do not appear when you want to send a message to that number.
I have the latest version of Outlook on my machine (Office 2003) and WM5 on my PocketPC
Anyone else found a workaround to this?
Thanks,
Loukas

group messaging SMS

hi,
does anyone know of a software where i can send SMS to a group for the 750.
thanks
on my mda vario you could separate contacts with a ; to send to mutiple contacts.
however I couldnt setup up groups anywhere so you'de have to manually enter all the contacts every time

General contacts question

Ok here is a small question. I have added all of my old phone contacts to the phone contacts. But when I am using the Calender of my HTC Diamond ( which is basicly Outlook ) and set up a meeting, I am not able to add any contacts from the phone contacts. THe list of contacts it empty. So that means there is a phone contacts list and a outlook contact list.
Why? I mean shouldnt this all be handeled by windows mobile? Is there an easy way of getting the phone contacts to my outlook contacts? And will the outlook contacts work for calling somebody?
This just doesn't make any sense usability wise to me..
P.S.: Active sync only "sees" the outlook contacts , which are empty on my phone.
Hi,
please specify "phone contact". Are these one your SIM card? Because if not, they should be synced with your outlook contacts(in outlook, they should show in contacts now)
Otherwise you can just copy all sim contacts to your phone.
To answer your question, yes you can call outlook contacts with the phone, ofcourse after sync.
greetz,

Names in call history lost - how to recover?

For some unfathomable (and at this moment, irrelevant) reason my activesync partnership decided it had to re-sync all my contacts on my Windows Mobile device (it is a Touch Diamond with stock 1.93 ROM).
No contacts or calendars were lost.
However, because the contacts were re-written, all I see on my contact list are the numbers, not the names associated with those numbers.
The call history remains, but it no longer shows names. It is one long list of numbers, which is not very useful. Calls made after the contacts re-sync do show names as usual.
Is there any way to re-associate the call history with the names?
How does the call history - contacts list association work anyway?

[Q] Contact issue after syncing them to Android

I bought Samsung Note II to replace my iPhone mobile. I synced all contacts to MS Outlook then to Android. I had 2 issues after doing that:
1- phone numbers that were under "iPhone" phone number field were change to "other" phone number field in MS Outlook. So when I synced them to my Android, this phone number "other" was not synced!
2- some contacts has more than 3 phone numbers. when I open them from the contacts, all numbers are shown, but when I open them in the phone dialer, only the first 3 phone numbers are shown!
By the way, if I add new number in the Android contact editor, it will be shown in the contacts and phone dialer even if it have more than 3 phone number!!
I really stocked in that I have lots of contacts in my phone
