Hi all!
I have a Blueangel device (WM2003SE, newest ROM from T-Mobile).
I primary sync it at home with my outlook 2003. Now I have an additional cradle and I want to sync it at work with outlook xp (which connects to a Lotus Notes server).
What happens if I sync it that way?
I don't want my Blueangel to sync the conacts and my appointments from my home computer at work and neighther do I want my Blueangel to sync all the stuff from work with my home pc.
I just want to have all synchronized to my device and not mixed on the pc's. Is that possible?
Thanks for your answers!
Setting one of your computers not to sync contacts is probably the only way you are going to keep them from getting mixed together. As far as I can tell, win CE only maintains one database of contacts.
Hi all,
Does anyone know of an alternative to Activesync that allows the direction of sync'ing to be specified.
Our users are struggling with Activesync as deleting a contact from their device also results in the contact being deleted from their Outlook account next time they sync.
I'm looking for something that will sync everything to the device, but not delete from Outlook should any changes be made on the mobile device.
Phone in question is a Wizard.
Thanks.
Nick.
Does the lack of response mean that nothing is available like this?
Have you looked at Intellisync or PocketMirror for WinMobile? I'm certain both have that ability.
http://www.sync.com/is_desktop_main.html <-- Intellisync
http://www.chapura.com/pmp_wm.php <-- Pocket Mirror
exactly what i was looking for
Pocket Mirror is way better.
and also found exactly what i needed LivePIM to sync PalmOS to PPC, and vice versa
A free alternative to activesync if you just want to keep your calendar synchronised is to use Google Calendar in the middle.
Google calendar can be set up to synchronise with Outlook using the Google Calendar Sync software. I then use the freeware version of OggSync to synchronise Google Calendar with my Windows Smartphone.
It works for me!
hi guys, just a quick and simple question.....
in windows vista, if i sync up and sync all contacts, where does it store this info, in xp it saved these contacts to my outlook, but on vista, alli have is windows mail and there are no contacts in there, i cannot seem to find them anywhere and need to know this works before loosing all my contacts with an upgrade.
i actually posted this somewhere else, i think it was the wrong forum, so added another here...
This forum is mainly for running Windows Mobile 6 on the HTC Universal.
However, here is how I understand it: If you don't run Outlook on your Vista machine, you can't sync your contacts or calendar... and that is REALLY stupid since Vista HAS a Calendar built-in!
For contacts, check in the 'Contacts' folder under your Username (click Start -> (username) and then Contacts. If it's not there, I don't know where it goes. I bought Outlook.
checked that, windows mail, no contacts, windows contacts, no joy, i even had a copy of microsoft office 2007 running the other day and still didnt work.
has anyone got any contacts synced up with vista??
I used to have Vista running with Office 2007 and it synced ok to Office, but after a couple of syncs it stopped recognising the device. After a lot of playing around, I came to the conclusion that Vista sucks the proverbial ass and is not really ready for release yet, so I downgraded again to XP.
My flatmate has stuck with Vista and is having the same problems on his Wizard. I do think it's a problem with Vista more than WMDC or the phone. Vista's 'Security' features render it pretty unstable at accepting communication with most devices as nearly no drivers are at WHQL level yet, even the inbuilt M$ drivers. (That's purely my own opinion, thousands disagree with me!).
Sorry I can't be more help.

no worries fella, any information is good, i must admit vista has its good points, but fails on many needed values, especially when connecting devices with there own software.
unfortunatly, i had no choice in the matter of getting vista, my old laptop died and i couldnt get hold of a new one fast enough that still had xp installed. i didnt even get a backup copy of vista to downgrade then upgrade at a later date. oh well.
i heard about people using a virtual machine to run RUU for upgrading devices, i might give this a go... its a pain in the arse, but i really dont want to loose all my contacts....
My Universal seems to be syncing with Office 2k7 just fine. I haven't tried in a couple of days, but I'll give it a shot tonight just to make sure everything is working okay. I'm even running as a non-administrator.
Once you have Office installed you just need to make sure that the boxes are checked in mobile device manager. Have you installed the device manager update? (links towards the bottom of the page). That might help a bit.
i was running Vista since it RTMed and i have had no problems syncing Universal with WMDC, even when it was in Beta stage. Now with fully updated WMDC and Office 2007 Pro i cant see any better partnership for my device. everything syncs just perfectly. And i will never go back to Active Sync or XP for that matter. Vista, Office2007, WMDC are soooooooo much better.
I AM LOVING IT....
its all sorted now, thanks for your help guys.
i just reinstalled office 07 and repaired device as a new device, ticked contacts and it worked.
woohoo
Syncing with Wondows Calendar/Contacts
Right, I've got Vista on my new laptop but have no intention in acuiring Outlook 2007 for it (at the moment I'm running Office Home and Student 2007 - no Outlook any more, just Onenote, don't get me wrong I love Onenote!) I was just planning on using Windows Live Desktop Mail and Windows Contacts on my laptop as I have a desktop running the full Office Auite. However, I would like my hpone to be able to sync contacts and calendar onto my laptop.
Does anyone know of a 3rd party app which allows for WMDC to sync with the built in Calendar and Contacts within Vista?
Currently my Desktop in running Office 2003 and Active Sync 4.1 on a XP Home SP2 OS.
My laptop is running Office 2007 and WMDC on Vista Home Premium.
My phone is a T-Mobile Vario II running WM5. I'd love to upgrade to WM6 but I'm a bit worried to use a home brew as I don't really know what I'm doing when it comes to switching. I just wish T-Mobile would support the Vario II the same as the have done the Dash!
Any suggestions for keeping all my contacts and calendar up to date across all three devices?
Hi I am selling my Fuze to my brother (whenever the TP2 comes out on Tmo) and want to know the best way to transfer his contacts from his Blackberry to the Fuze. I tried the search function in both this subforum and the entire site. (also I googled it) no clear answers there and nothing here. If any could help it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
If you have Outlook, use Desktop Manager (Blackberry) to sync the Blackberry to Outlook using a usb cable. That will give you contacts, calendar and tasks. Then depending on the version of Windows he has XP or Vista you'll run Active Sync or Mobile Device Manager to sync Outlook with the Fuze.
Regards-Michael G.
$5-$10 at a phone store to transfer it if you don't know how to
great

Thanks. I just did not know enough about blackberries to know if they had something to sync with outlook. I take it I can download DM from the BB website?
Hi,
After several happy years with my P3600/TyTn I am quickly falling in love with the Hero. It seems to have all I need (plus a lot I like), but does anyone know whether EasySync Pro works on this device/OS ?
I use EasySync to sync my (employer's) Lotus Notes calendar, email and contacts with the P3600. Would not want to miss this functionality in future !
Many thanks in advance
Sync Lotus Notes with HTC Sync on Hero
HTC Sync v 2.08 now supports synchronizing contacts and calendar info for Lotus notes. I just synced my Notes calendar to my Sprint HTC Hero. It does not transfer the attendees, but at least you get all the other calendar information (date/time/place). Im not sure why they don't advertise this when they mention outlook.
HTC Sync can be downloaded from HTC's website. I think this is the cleanest and freest solution to an android device. I had read about using companion link and don't like the idea of sending all the data to google's servers first.
Forgot to mention. I also used Easy Sync Pro with my Touch Pro and Mogul. Easy Sync only works with a windows mobile device or the old Palm OS. So ... NO, you cannot use it with the HTC Hero.
