Hi,
I yesterday downloaded HTC Sync 1.1 from the HTC website (Canadian support) - which now somehow has disappeared again.
In the setup dialog it says something about syncing the Outlook calendar. This would be a great feature!
I now tried to sync it with my Rogers ROM but I am only able to choose contacts.
Any ideas how to sync the calendar? Do we need a new PCSCII.apk?
Since I am unable to use the Exchange client due to PIN security restrictions it would be great if I could sync my calendar with HTC sync.
Any help appreciated!
Sorry for bumping but doesn't anyone have any idea?

Hi everyone,
I'm hoping someone has an idea for me, because this is driving me crazy.
I'm trying to sync an HTC Prophet with a WM6.1 ROM with both my desktop Outlook as well as Google Calendar and Google Contacts. However, as soon as I add the Google Exchange server (m.google.com) to the server sources in Activesync, my desktop Outlook won't sync any more - always gives a "A problem has occurred on the desktop" error
Has anyone else had this problem and managed to work around it? I need Google Sync because it's the only way I've found to get my calendar and contacts synced to Thunderbird or Sunbird easily...
Any bright ideas?
Thanks in advance!
Hi,
Apologies if Im posting in the wrong section or asking something that's been answered before.
I'm new to the Android scene with an Orange San Francisco (ZTE Blade) and I want to sync contacts, calenders and notes stored in Outlook 2003 by connecting to my PC via USB. What tools are there out there that works like Active Sync?
Thanks.
Sync Outlook with Android

i think the best you can hope for is to export your contacts from outlook, and import them into your gmail account.
you can use google calender sync (search google) this will sync your outlook calender and gmail calender.
I'm not familiar with that phone, but it comes with 2.1 right? You can use the 'email' app to sync up with your exchange server. I don't think it will sync notes, but it can sync up contacts, email, and appointments.
You could also try touchdown from the market. http://www.appbrain.com/app/exchange-for-android-2-x/com.nitrodesk.droid20.nitroid
It costs $20 after the trial, but works really well and will sync up everything you're looking for.
Thanks for the replies so far.
I don't want to sync with gmail, as sometimes I work offline, therefore need sync directly with Outlook. Also don't use Exchange, this is standard alone Outlook.
I've read HTC have a similar tool (HTC Sync ?) for Active Sync. Will this work on a San Francisco, which runs Android 2.1?
You need to downoal the program MyPhoneExplorer and connect your phone to USB, then follow the instuctions. To my mind this is the best free soft avaliable out there.
The "On" buttons for syncing those two categories are greyed out.
I really would like to be able to sync my contacts to PC so I can edit them easier, since lots of duplicates show up in the Messaging contacts menu.
Any idea what I can do?
I have the exact same problem. Did you ever find a solution?
Have you downloaded and installed HTC Sync software on your PC.

I assume you aren't using a Google account for your contacts, the Sense contact database will use the HTC Sync software and want to hook into Outlook (or something else) on the PC. However, with a Google account, you can sync your contacts to the cloud and view them in GMail on the pc and edit there.
HTC Sync is installed on my home computer and at work. I'm trying to sync my phone with Outlook 2007. I'm not worried about my contacts so much as I would like to sync with my calendar in outlook, so any meetings I have on my computer at work, will show up on my phone.
I was able to use HTC Sync with the Inspire to load Contacts with no problem. I did not do the calendar, since I sync that with Goolge. Google contacts cannot deal with all the contact notes I have in Outlook.
Be sure to get the latest HTC Sync.

You have to run HTC sync as an administrator in Win7.

I can do that at home, but at work I have XP and it doesn't work there either.
After having the same problem with calender button being greyed out in HTC SYNC 3 i might have found another solution to fix this.
My HTC Sync 3 (and previous versions) used to sync everything i wanted but after a system restore to an earlier date 2 months ago it stopped syncing the calender items from outlook 2003. Yes i've only just noticed that it's not been syncing!!
1/ I tried going back to earlier versions of htc sync but that didn't work.
2/ I tried running HTC Sync as administrator but that didn't work.
3/ I installed a fresh copy of HTC Sync (all versions) with msconfig items modified and that didn't work.
4/ I removed all traces of HTC Sync and installed MyPhoneExplorer and that didn't work as well......that then led me to believe that the problem couldn't be with my HTC Sync.
5/ What fixed it for me was a detect and repair in MS office 2003 (through add and remove programs) and also i did a detect & repair in outlook 2003 itself as well. You might need the office install disc as it needed some cab files during the repair.
I then installed HTC Sync 3 ver 5511 again and the calender button is now back and selectable again....Hey presto.
I can only assume the windows restore featire to an earlier time might have thrown a spanner in the works.
has anyone had any problem with their calender not syncing, after upgrading to ICS, i use Go calender, and sync perfectly with google calender, now i have upgraded go calender, or any other calender widget does not update.....
any ideas?
I have Pure Calendar, and it updates correctly - ARHD 6.6.1
Yep, had the same her after ICS upgrade with Google and Exchange Calendar. No sync and after a tap on the empty calendar the phone said htc.calender.*** crashed and needs to be restarted.
I stopped the calendar application and widgets, deleted the data from the calendar application and resynced again (did it automatically as only the calender data was deleted not the account information) and since then it's going fine.
bye

Same issue and same solution here.
Sent from my HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio Z715e using xda premium
hmmm, just tried that, but Go calender still isnt liking it. I';ve reinstalled go calendar and no difference either.
any solution other than the above? i dont have the crashing problem, but i just cant sync the go calendar with google calendar, i have tried synker too, no go.
I seem to be in a similar situation after the upgrade to ICS, although some of it still works.
I'm using Outlook 2007 on a Windows 7 64-bit PC with the latest HTC Sync.
Contacts synchronise correctly in both directions
Any changes to my Outlook calendar synchronise correctly with my phone (I'm using the "PC Sync" device calendar).
New calendar entries on my phone synchronise correctly with Outlook.
If I delete or edit an calendar entry on my phone, it does not synchronise with Outlook.
It makes no difference whether I use the built-in calendar app or a third party app.
As an aside, I have also tried using MyPhoneExplorer to synchronise over wifi but this is seeing many entry differences where none really exist so I am stalled with that as an alternative.
Hey all
Yesterday I bought a HTC One S. I set up my Homtail Account via Exchange AS and the following Problem occurs. When adding an event to the calendar the phone starts syncing and eats up all the battery but it isn't able to write to that calendar on the server so that i can see it at my pc.
If i delete the account and add a hotmail account under Accounts & Synchronizing the calendar syncing works but I am not able to add or edit Hotmail Contacts..
This functions are working on my old Desire Z with 2.3 and on my Transformer 101 without any problems. Told that the guys from HTC Support -> They told me to exchange the phone. ridiculous...and absolutely not a qualyfied answer
So it can't be a Server issue... WTF is wrong? has anyone an idea? Has anyone else this problems?
Thx in advance.
