Hello, in Outlook one has the beautiful chance to let the device show you a postal address on the map - in wm6.5 case on google maps. But as I work with iGO8 on my device, I want to have Outlook show me the address on iGO. Does somebody know where and how I can convince Outlook to change the location program? Also I would like to get rid of google maps (not efficient where I live) and of CoPilot - but both programs seem to have never been installed, as I cannot find any uninstallation routine. But the icons are there and functioning. Any idea about how I could fix that (and not by simply removing the icons, please)? And another question - is there no chance to use the "X" button to really close programs instead of only minimizing them?
Thanx for helping me out!

Hi everybody,
Hoping someone can help with this.
Tried searching, but couldn't find anything.
On WM5, in week view in the default calendar, I could tap on a block appointment and the top bar would show what the appt was.
However, ever since upgrading to WM6, in week view in the default calendar, whenever I tap on a block that represents an appointment it would automatically open up the appt. I don't want that. I just want to see what the appt is in the bar. If I use the d-pad it would highlight the appt and show what it is without opening up the appt.
Anyone know of a fix to this? I don't want to install a 3rd party software as I was quite happy with the calendar the way it was.
I couldn't find anything in the options in Calendar...
HI,
Anyone got any ideas how to get goodlink and the TF3D calendar to sync? Have the same problem with contacts - seem Goodlink and the HTC apps use different calendars and contacts.
THanks
Hi,
AFAIK that is not possible at this point. Other apps like SPB Mobile Shell etc also do not support Goodlink.
I've tried SecondToday and have the Goodlink today plugins running in it but it doesn't refresh when new emails come in etc.
What I've done in the end is to junk TF3D and use the Goodlink today plugins and PocketAlarm (which support Goodlink).
TouchPro and JunkLink
try using SSMaPa to replace the application that gets called when you select the calendar in TF3D:

I didn't have any luck on my HTC Fuze and SSMA.
I like the TouchFlo interface so I did the workaround by adding
\Goodcalendar
\Goodemail
\GoodContacts
\GoodCompose
\GoodNews
etc
on the TouchFlo PROGRAMS tab. At least, I still have access to them from TF. I don't get notifications and I wish the calendar appt's show up on the HOME screen but I couldn't make it work. Hope someone finds a better solution.
PS -Goodlink disables my Bluetooth discoverability. Anyone figured out a way to unlock this? At least my device doesn't lock ever 30 min with this newfangled software.
I tried a version of windows live (& messenger) that I uninstalled later since messenger wouldn't work. But now in my sliding panels, I have the Windows Live email account left over even though the actual email account is not present anymore. I found a new version of WLM that works and it created it's own email account and added it to the sliding panel as well. So now I have 2 WL email accounts showing in the chome panel, 1 called Hotmail and it works fine, 1 called Windows Live which is the left over one.
I've searched the registry and files for some sort of reference to "bad" install of windows live, but can't find nor can I get rid of it from my sliding panels.
Any idea where the sliding panels is getting this email config information?
EDIT: Appears this has something to do with a database as I tried adding a test account calling it Windows Live and I get a prompt stating that the account name already exisits, so the issue is in the OS not chome. Any help would be appreciated...
issue is related to cemail.vol database. Using many posts I found a solution. I could have just deleted the window live stuff from the db but I decided to empty the whole thing to see what would happen. All I had to do is setup my exchange account again and I was good to go.

Hello
I have a question i want to sync my home agenda and my work agenda synced with my pocket pc but at work i don't want my home appointments and at work not my home appointments is there a way so i can devide them like when i want to insert an appointment into my pocket pc i can say it's for work and then later when i sync with my work pc it sync this appointment. I've searched a lot but can't find a solution (it's hard to search for this)
does no one has a solution for this
The only way i could think to make life easier is to have work appointments priority differently, different colour in outlook and home different too????

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
It will require administrator rights on your work computer, but if you use Pocketmirror by chapura you can set up each computer with a folder like instance. For home the folder will be called home and that is all you sync and for work, the same thing, call it work. Play around with it and you will see that is flexible, and although not exactly as you want, it can work for you.
thank you i'll try this
does anyone have a better solution
Assign to each appointment a category of 'home' and/or 'work'.
Then define your view in outlook to filter certain category (so at work, only see category 'work').
Of course, all items will be synced, but you will only see the ones that you want. Your PPC is also able to view by category if you wish.
I know it's only part solution, but this is the way I do it for now. Sadly the PPC can't hold two diaries (unlike my old Psion Revo!).
it's a good solution but not for me because my work agenda is a shared one so everybody at work can see my home appoitements and they don't need to know what i do when i am not at work
Urg...this is harder than it should be. Can anyone in the same situation offer any advice?
Situation is this...
* HTC Touch Pro
* Google Apps Mail/Calendar/Tasks
* Lotus Notes w/Notes Traveler
* Other sync apps like Spb Wallet
* Windows XP
I initially had my phone syncing with ActiveSync to my laptop as a backup (contacts etc going to Outlook) and so I could sync things like my password data using Spb Wallet
Coming from Palm devices, I wasn't quite prepared for how crap ActiveSync (or Outlook) actually was. I then changed my mail to sync with Google (using IMAP) and then Contacts and Calendar syncing with Google via their fake Outlook sync setup, and that works pretty well.
Note: Now Google have push email, but I haven't tried it, and my Spb Wallet on my phone and PC are now out of sync
Today I tried Notes Traveler, which syncs my work info over-the-air, kind of like a Blackberry.
This works (I guess) but Lotus' idea of "Sync" seems to be "Nuke everything on your device and overwrite it with your Notes data"
...yep, I did back everything up...
Issues/Questions:
1) Is there any way to get rid of the default "Outlook" mail account in TouchPro 3d? Strangely I did a backup and restore when my phone went in for repair, and now it is called my domain name and has some old mail in it, but it's still not deletable
2) Notes Traveler creates a second (third!) mail account, so my work email is separate (which is great) but it nuked my calendar. Then it nuked my Google calendar, and uploaded all my work appointments to it! To make matters worse, even though mail is separate, meeting invites and responses now get sent back to my personal Google mailbox (since there is only one calendar I guess)
3) Since I'm busy/lazy at work, my work email has 554 unread messages (from the last 30 days), and it fills up at a rate of a couple of hundred a day. This means that the notification circle thingo on the front of the phone is in a permanent state of flashyness. Is there any way I can disable that for mail, and just have it alert me for SMSs etc?
4) Has anyone come up with a good solution for two different types of mail? The only option I can really think of is turning off the Google sync (maybe except for Contacts) and using the web apps...but that seems clunky and no TouchFlow 3D integration. There isn't a native WM6 app for the Google suite is there? Or for Notes? Also the screenshots on the Google help web pages seem much more usable than the screens I actually get (there are tabs across the top to switch between mail, cal etc.)
5) I really use the multi calendar feature of Google a lot, is there any way you can sync more than one calendar to the device?
6) Does anyone know if Android manages this scenario better? I'm almost ready to switch (except that no Notes Traveler for Android)
Thanks in advance for any pointers on any of the items above.
Zilch.
To delete the account you go into Activesync on the phone, then go to Menu...Options...now click and hold on the exchange server to delete it.
You can go to Settings, sounds Notifications to turn off the flashing notification. Otherwise you may need fuze tweak or advanced config.
