Use google Sync!! It will sync up your contacts AND your calendar!
just open up Activesync, goto "Add server source" from the menu, for the username, use your full username including @gmail.com, make sure use SSL is turned on, the domain is m.google.com
only sync the contacts and calendar ( I *think* they will be adding tasks to the list of syncable items soon)
Enjoy! I have had to do many hardresets since i got this phone, google sync even restores picture ID's!
You can then access and export your contacts from www.google.com/contacts if you want to

or you could always just sync with microsoft outlook.. or any other exchange server..

i'll try the google thing... =)
and
i tried to use microsoft outlook but it won't let me.. don't know why... can you help me with that??? sorry i'm just a noob.. =)
thank you

Syncs the data with your google/gmail accounts.

You can use PIM backup to simply save your contact info, no need for a pc at all!

How do I change user info on Microsoft Exchange?

Okay, so I've been using nuevasync for a while to wirelessly sync my phone with my google calendar. Just saw that Google now as their own sync so figured I'd use theirs... less likely to run into upgrade issues if Google reconfigures anything with their calendar.
So, I went into the settings and put in google's website then hit next. Now I'm stuck! The "User name" and "Domain" fields are locked! It won't let me change these at all. Any one know why these would be locked and how I get them editable?
Thanks.
here are some suggestions...
1) Edit the Reg files for it
HKCU/SOFTWARE/MICROSOFT/ACTIVESYNC/PARTNERS/0DD8685C-...etc
Here you should find the values you need to edit "Domain"and "username"
2) delete the partnership from activesync then create a new one. - This can be done by opening activesync and clicking on menu (bottom right) then selecting options and delete.
Option 2 deletes all the exchange sync stuff though, so be sure to use PIMBACKUP to keep the information.
removing an exchange server only deletes contacts related to your exchange server.. it doesn't delete all contacts... same thing about mail and messaging.

MyPhone and Outlook Sync Issue

I wanted to know if there is a way around or trick to prevent duplicating contacts/appointments/tasks everytime I flash my vogue
and connect/sync to MyPhone and then sync with Outlook?
Sorry if this was asked elsewhere...could find it!
Thanks in advance.

Is there any solution?

I found a simple solution... Flash your device. Sync with MyPhone. Delete Outlook personal folders file and create a new, empty one (easy way to just delete everything from Outlook). Then set up sync between device and Outlook, voila - all your data goes first from MyPhone to device, then from device to Outlook.

Create new Contacts folder
The syncronization between WinMo with Outlook via Activesync regarding the contacts is done using the default Outlook contacts folder. So, what I use to do is to create another contacts folder and move there as many contacts as I want not meant to be sync'd. This way, I achive what I want, and keep intact all the remaining contacts, which you can move back and forth as you please, any time.
However, my understanding of "syncronization" is not all these tricks (I know that sometimes there is no other way) but a single utility that syncs, echoes, replicates or whatsoever. From this point of view, I would like to reiterate the original question: Is there "something" to sync My Phone with Outlook?
Thanks.
FWIW i have the same issue with my Xperia connected toOutlook and a mail2web Exchange account. The only commonality is my Xperia in the middle and the only working solution has been to clear out the Outlook Calendar and Contacts before resynching, after allowing time for the OTA Exchange to finish.

Editing facebook contacts...

I am using fission 2.4.3 ROM and i like the way it looks and all but is there a way to edit the Facebook syncd contacts like the factory Global contact list settings? it says facebook contact information is no editable on this device... am i missing soemthing? before the root and rom i syncd my contacts and was able to add numbers, emails and drag them onto the home tabs for shortcuts..
Welcome to the CLOUD!
Doesn't seem like such a great idea now does it? LOL
Here is what you do, it will require having or making a Yahoo Mail account but it will solve your problem.
If you use Outlook (like I do) it will be way more complicated but only because you probably want to use Outlook as your master list.
Step One - Go to Yahoo mail and import your facebook contacts into your yahoo mail contacts. (they have a wizard that does this for you) Then export Yahoo Mail Contacts to a CSV file. (This will work for myspace and linkedIn as well!)
Step Two (Google) - Import that CSV file into Google contacts and have your phone sync if it doesn't automatically (sometimes it takes awhile to sync)
Step Three - Look in your phone contacts you will now see dupliacte contacts of all your facebook friends. One will be from Google and the other will be from facebook. Select the facebook contact and JOIN or LINK (depends on your rom) it to the other duplicate.
You will now be able to edit all the fields not filled in by Facebook and a have a single contact for that person. (If you look you will see in the contact which profiles are linked together. You will have one profile for each contact source that has been linked. (one for Google and one for Facebook)
If you have Fission running you need to go into EDIT contact before you will get the JOIN button in the menu.
I have found that it is best to do most of your editing in Google Mail and then syncing anything else (such as outlook) to that (I use Companion Link).
And while it is ok to add contacts into outlook and sync with Gmail it is better to check those contacts for correctness in Gmail.
If they are correct in Gmail they are correct on the phone. And should you ever have to factory wipe data you will be sure to get all your contacts back when you resign into GMail on your phone.

Contacts wont sync!

I need some help here...............
I am running stock mango. Phone wont sync all my contacts with any 1 client. Some are on Google, some on Facebook, and some yet on Live/Hotmail.
How do I push all of my contacts to one place for off phone storage?
Is there anyway to get all of my contacts to sync somewhere away from the phone in the event I lose my phone or all data is lost?
There must be something somewhere????
Btw, syncing contacts to Windows Live is a nightmare.
Now since you mentioned Google, I suggest you sync/backup your contacts there.
Settings, (system tab) e-mail+accounts, Google, check the box for Contacts
If you have others, uncheck Contacts in all other accounts.
Now go to Settings (applications tab) people, filter my contact list and choose whatever you like but make sure you uncheck "Windows Live".
Sync, and all your contacts should be backed in Gmail (check Contacts there from a PC).
Alternatively, if you can save your contact list as a .CSV file and import directly in Gmail (in your desktop's browser).
Thanks for the help!!
The only account that I have a checkbox for contacts in is Google, even windows live doesnt have a checkbox.
I went into setting>application>people>filter and unchecked windows live from sync and tried again, still wont load.
I have some of my contacts stored in Google, but not ALL of them!
How do I create a .csv file on my phone and export into google?
It's normal to see the checkbox only in Gmail.
Make sure on PC you check properly your Gmail account in Contacts, you should see "My Contacts" and "Imported MM/DD/YY" if you import them via CSV. Also, You might want to make sure the contacts from your SIM are on the phone (might be why you're missing some contacts).
Alternatively, you can edit your contacts yourself in Gmail.
This guide might prove very useful to you for transferring, importing, exporting contacts.
Still no dice. Cant find how to access my contacts via SIM since doing the Mango update.
This is getting frustrating. No one is having the same problem with the Arrive?
Import or Export ?
I am sorry but I am bit lost in the conversation.
What is that you want to do ?
Import Contacts in the Phone or Export Contacts from the Phone to somewhere else ?
I want my contacts exported somewhere, that way if my phone crashes or is lost I have all of my contacts stored offline somewhere safe.
WP7 says this is done automatically through Windows Live and Google......its not happening on my phone, only SOME contacts are stored in each

I've historically had the opposite experience. I think Gmail contacts & calendars are both pretty inconsistent, and my Live account has been 100x better to sync with. I even had issues on Android with Gmail contacts/calendar.
Still cant sync contacts or calendar with Gmail........any suggestions? I cant be the only one with this issue, can I?
Is there an App for Google yet on Mango?
I posted this elsewhere on the forums a moment ago and it relates to getting google contacts to sync with my Nokia Lumia 800.
I set it all up nicely and then found that none of my google phone numbers were synced. I had a similar experience with my old android phone (well the opposite problem actually)
I fixed this by highlighting all my contacts in google on a PC and making sure they were all in the "my contacts" group as that seems to be the only group that the phone will sync. Once done, all of my contacts were there.
Don't sync the google calendar so cant comment
enjoy!

Transfering contacts from Windows Mobile to WP7?

How can I transfer the contacts from WM 6 to Windows Phone?
A quick search found the Outlook method, but I don't use Outlook and I don't have the app. Another way is copying each contact to SIM and then transfering but that is very time consuming.
Any other ways?
At least in Nokia there is a Contact Transfer application in the application menu. This works like a charm.
I don't think ActiveSync has that option.
You can transfer all your contacts to "cloud" from google: http://www.google.com/support/mobile/bin/answer.py?answer=138636&topic=14299. On WP7 device add this account like exchange serwer and done. But you have to remember:
10. Check Contacts, Calendar, or Email, depending on which you'd like to sync. (Tasks is not supported and will lead to an error if checked.)

Here is what I did.
Saved contacts as cbf file to my PC and imported in my Google Mail account.
Now, I synced WP7 with the Gmail account. The contacts are there in the list with the numbers and I cannot call. There's no option or button for that.
EDIT: Now I checked the contacts in my Gmail account. The First, Middle and Last name are fine but the numbers are saved as notes, like
Mobile: **********
FileAs: First, Last name
I think, I got a fix for this.
If anyone any export any 1 or 2 contacts from their Gmail account which must have mobile tel, and preferrably work tel, home tel and email also and send the file to me.
You can replace the numbers by 00 or anything. Export in CSV file.
I just need the 'Fields' the gmail uses for numbers.
I am using imobiletool contacts.
