PC Suite for PDA - General Questions and Answers

Hi, for All.
Have anybody idea about a good Windows XP/Vista program for PDA managing. The Outlook is "strange" for me, I've also Jeyo Mobile Extender for SMSes. I'd SE before, and My Phone Explorer was beautiful and simple to use. I know also about Dashwire, but I won't to put my personal data on a server via internet. I'd like to do it on my own PC only. Is there any PC program to do it?

How to sync contacts from pda with Outlook?

Hello,
i've a pda with WM 6.1
My problem is bidirectional synchronization.
The situation is:
1. On my mobile device are about 200 contacts (names, telNr, emails, adresses)
2. On my desktop pc with win xp + outlook 2003 (yesterday new win xp installation). Outlook is empty and doesn't have any contacts.
My problem in the past was deletion of new contacts on my mobile device.
For example i met someone in a club. He gave me his number and email adress. I type all the info on my mobile device.
If i plug my device at home (via ActiveSync) and tried to sync the contacts from my device with outlook on desktop pc this new contact was deleted!
Everything what wasn't on desktop pc was deleted.
Now i have my contacts only in my mobile device. Hot to set up active sync, mobile devic, desktop pc outlook to get the contacts from mobile device to desktop pc?
I'm afraid to lose all my contacts if i connect my mobile device with desktop pc :-( That everything will be overwritten with empty destkop pc outlook.
How to make the synchronization bidirectional?
1. If something is present only on mobile device and not on destkop pc -> save it on desktop pc.
2. If something is present only on destkop pc and not on mobile device -> save it on mobile device
3. Avoid duplicates
4. DELETE NOTHING FROM MOBILE DEVICE
Is it possible?
Please help me out :-/
best regards

Hi,
Sadly enough M$ does not use their AS themselves, otherwise it would be much more up to its task...
Best way to operate is IMHO : use PIMbackup to have a copy of your contacts saved. then sync the PDA and PC. When done, go into Extra | Options and change the settings to 'Leave item on PPC'. Restart PIMbackup and put back your backup-file. By the time you're finished doing that AS has already copied all your contacts from PDA to PC.

have you looked in activesyncs settings
click Options
right click on the pc
choose source settings
look at the "if there is a conflict" dropdown
also it's always a good idea to backup your outlook on the pc
you can do that by exporting the pst file

Syncing appointments via bluetooth from mobile to mobile ??

Hi,
I don't really believe that there is such a tool (nothing found with google) but...
I want to exchange appointments from S710 to my old SDA (runs also with WM6.5) to have know my appointments when I use my old "beach-mobile". At the moment I need to send Pimbackup-file via bluetooth from s710 to SDA and recover datas. Or I sync via "Microsoft my phone" (I have no outlook) but then I need to start my notebook because SDA has no WLAN.
So both ways are annoying - and if there would be a way to sync from Mobile to Mobile via bluetooth (not with single vcards/vcalendar) that would be great.
Does such a tool exsist??

Try to get an old Outlook (2002 is ok). It should be part of any device delivery for WM2k3 or WM5. Still you have to get up the PC but your devices stay in sync for what you configure.
Hi tobbie,
I've got an old Outlook version (don't know exactly which) but it runs not on my Windows7-notebook. Before I changed to Win7 I did this via Outlook. But I use a other email software, and to buy a newer Outlook only for syncing makes no sense in my opinion.
And a direct sync from mobile to mobile via bluetooth would be excellent. But I haven't really believed that I get a positive answer from anybody.

Set up a virtual machine in Windows hosting XP then install Outlook there or install the old Outlook on Windows 7 as an old application (XP mode). The first should work for sure.
My preferred VM is the VMWare player, but WM7 has an own.
Hello tobbie,
sounds good, but I googled a little bit after your hint (haven't installed a VM yet) about virtual machine and Win7. Windows Virtual XP machine on Win7 is only available for Win Professional or ultimate. But I've got only Home Premium.
And I don't know if there is a suitable freeware-VM, and if I have to pay for then it makes no sense for me. I don't need so often to sycronize my both mobiles, so I don't like to pay for it.
Regards Odiad
VMware player is free - I also use it and it is very comfortable. You can attach/detach USB connections from/to host/VM and vice versa. Definitely worth the time!
But first try should be to get Outlook running in Win7. I wonder why Outlook would not install directly. Can't you install "old" applications in a kind of "XP mode" in Win7?
