Wondering why I can't send a doc from gmail. Any time I try to attach a file, photos are the only option. I was wondering if this had something to do with the folder structure of my sdcard or if that's just how it is. I can long press a doc icon then send, but it should be possible from gmail too. Any ideas?

Is there a way to import contacts directly to the phone, with no sync program.
I tried created a vcf file(vcard) but when I run it on the phone it doesnt seem to work.
Is there any other way without connecting it to a computer?
thank
There's a absolutely final ultimate solution, named as ppcpimbackup, with which you can backup your contacts, appointments, tasks into one file on your storage card, then restore them in just a click when you need.
Let alone to say, it's a freeware and also green.

Not what I was really after..... but maybe I will have a look at the format of it and rewrite mine into that.
The problem is I have all my contacts in a database and Im writing them to file, which can be anything..... So my idea is to write it to some format and then to make the change on the phone I just run the file(thinking opening a file like vCard) will import all the contacts into my address book. While this works for outlook and other programs I want to skip the computer process as everything I have is online........
So I will try and open the backup file and see if I can create the same format, if not I will need another plan.
thanks
Hi,
coming from a relatively literate PC user - I must say that Gmail IMAP must be something most confusing I have come across.
I managed to get it working, I can see GMAIL account in well, accounts, and mail is going back and forth the way it should.
1. Now, the problem are labels. I can see them listed as folders below GMAIL default folders, but they are all empty. All the emails simply go to inbox folder.
Any ideas how to solve this?
Also, deleting an email on my cell phone does not move it to Trash folder on Gmail account (on the server). Does this maybe happen next time I send/receive?
2. data traffic counter in WM. Where can I see how much data went over the GPRS/HSDPA connection? In total and in the last session?
Thank you all
Alex
think your imap pickle is more an imap thing then a wm thing as google imap in outlook
on my pc is the same way

You don't sound familiar with Gmail's label concept. Think of each label as a mask, and each message having a bitmap of its labels. You can tag each message with many labels. You label (move to folder) and remove labels (delete from folder) by masking bits.
Delete from a folder (including Inbox) and you've only masked a label bit. If you want to really delete the message, delete it from [Gmail]/All Mail.
Hmmm...
thanx all for the replies! Well, I AM familiar with the labels concept but then (obviously) it doesnt integrate well with the mail client in Windows, no? I mean, if the client recognises folders (labels) why cant it put messages into them?
Cheers!
I use FastMail.FM for my IMAP mail.
When I want to sync IMAP sub folders I have to go to:
Menu, Tools, Manage Folders and select all subfolders that I want to synchronize. (to make sure the content is synced, not just an empty folder)
Doesn't GMAIL work the same way?
Quite frankly, I don't see any advantage of use IMAP over pop and not to mention POP is faster and simpler
I see a lot of advantages.
My IMAP servers is pulling POP3 mail from other servers, so I have all my mail in one place.
I always have it backed up.
I can access it from anywhere, and read my mail anywhere.
(from my PC, laptop, Shift, webmail)
I can archive mail to subfolders.
etc,etc..
BTW, you are right about the speed. POP3 is a bit faster to check for new mail. I don't see why it would be simpler.
imap support push
pop3 itself does not

Lately I've been using Postbox on Windows and Mac. It's built from Mozilla code and has similarities to Thunderbird, but it's a lot more stable and a lot better IMO. Also, it makes using Gmail IMAP a whole lot easier.
Hi all,
I am new at this forum and I just bought my Topaz a few days ago. Everything (internet, email) is working without any problems, but there is a little thing for which I haven't found a solution yet.
For the mails arriving in a subfolder (I am working with Microsoft Exchange Server), there is no notification (the green "bubble" in TouchFlo3D). I looked around for this problem, but I have started to become more and more convinced it's a big problem without a solution.
Now I am wondering, has any of you solved this?
Thanks!

The subfolders I already made in my regular outlook on my desktop. With my Topaz, I just synchronize all folders.

To receive mail in the subfolders, you have to synchronize each folder individually. You can do this by ticking the box before the name of the subfolder when you are using ActiveSync.
But this doesn't help to get notifications... Anyone?
How to Sync subfolders in ActiveSync(Smartphone)
1) Open your inbox on Smartphone
2) Select Menu on the bottom right of the screen and then select Tools
3) Select Manage Folders
4) Place a check mark next to all folders that you wish to synchronize data for. If folders are contained within the Inbox or other folders, you can expand the folder list and select sub-folders. You can also decide to synchronize the Sent Items folder to that emails you send via your Smartphone also appear in the Sent Items folder on your desktop Outlook software.
Auto expand folders + make them bold.
Is there and setting (reg) or cab that kan auto expand folders/subfolders and make them bold when new incomming e-mail has arrived?

You have to start the E-mail (Outlook) program from start menu, not just the "Mail" from the Notification.
In Outlook you can choose from subfolders list.
hello-
I tried the search function for the Xoom for this question but no dice:
http://motorola-xoom-tablet-help.blogspot.com/2011/03/how-to-sync-xoom-with-outlook-via.html
I used the above link to try to import contacts from Outlook into my Xoom. In the instructions, it says to make a comma separated values file, which I did, and import into my Xoom, which I did.
On the third step, it says the following: 3. On your Xoom tablet, log into the Google account and select Gmail > Conacts and import the CSV file to transfer contacts.
So I opened my gmail account (the envelope with the M partially in it), but I don't see a Gmail ->Contacts selection anywhere, so I'm a bit lost.
Anyway, I have the outlook CSV excel file on my Xoom. How do I get these contacts on my Xoom, or should I be doing this a different way?
Thanks!
The way I did it was log on to googlemail via Windows XP. I clicked onto contacts in Google Mail and then under "More Actions" there is an "Import" option. I imported my CSV file from there
And then I synced my device.
I hope this helps

Ah, you did it on the main computer. I was doing it on Xoom....or at least trying to. I'll give that a try when I get home. Thanks!
I use My Phone Explorer.
With it I get my Outlook contacts and Calendar in my Xoom.
Basically, I want to permanently delete messages with the Android Imap email client, I dont use the gmail app.
Currently, the way its set up, when I delete messages via Imap in the email app, they are left in the Imap/Trash folder on the desktop side when I log into gmail. The way I understand it, the messages should be permanently deleted with the way its configured now.
I want them to be permanently deleted when I select to delete them in the android email app, I dont wanna have to go into another folder and delete the messages or have to log into gmail via my desktop. Ive attached a couple settings pages...maybe somebody can spot something. Thanks a lot!
