Windows Mobile center deleted all contacts from PDA - General Questions and Answers

Hi Guys,
When I synced my XDA Orbit 2 with new Windows Mobile center, it asked me to delete the partnerships. After that I now find that all my contacts and calendar items are gone. Is there anyway I can restore my items on the phone?
Please help.
Thanks

when you deleted the partnership you also deleted all synced items. So i am afraid unless you backed them up they have gone from the orbit. Do you still have copies in outlook , if so back them up. Then set up a new partnership and it will sync them back for you

Any idea to restore the PDA back to couple of days back
I am so gutted. There is no outlook backup as that PC is formatted now. Any way I can restore my PDA to some earlier days like a couple of days back or something..
Thnx for the help.

2125 contacts backup question

I need to update the rom on my girlfriends phone as it thinks daylight savings happened today and it's annoying her and the rom is the one that came with the phone 1.5 years ago.
She's never backed up to activesync.
I downloaded and installed the newest active sync on her computer. (mine is running fine for my Tilt and i didnt want contacts to get all combined)
It finds her phone fine. But it doesnt show any contacts in outlook. contacts is selected in the list of things to back up.

2125 contacts don't sync to Outlook
I am having this same problem with my wife's phone. I saw where the office service pack needed to be a certain minimum level, but I took care of that and it still doesn't work.
PIM Backup is no solution for you ?
back up your contacts to the SIM. If you need more detailed back up use PIM back-up as Peter says.
You can find PIM back up in the developing and hacking forum, if I recall correctly.
I think the most comfortable way of backing up your contacts is via mail2web. just create an account and add their exchange server to your activesync settings.
there's no need for extra-software to do this.

PLEASE HELP: how to recover my outlook contacts from WM6.0 ???

Hello,
I just bought my HTC and moved all my contact in there. I never synchronized it with my PC.
Recently, I created an outlook account, then i decided to erase it (the only one left). While doing this, the system prompted that it will launch activeSync and requested the synchronization of Contacts/Tasks/Calender. I accepeted because i thought my HTC was not connected to my PC anyway so it will not cause anything. Bad luck for me, it appears that it did erase all my contacts, calender, tasks (sounds like it synchronized it with empty files) !!!!
No i am in trouble because i lost all my contacts without any backup or having done any synch with my laptop !!!
PLEASE CAN ANYONE TELL ME if there is anyway to recover these data from my mobile !!!! Any place where these deleted items could be retrieved from ?Any recovery tool that i could use ???
PS: I have not performed any soft or hard reset of my mobile yet...
Thanks in davance for your help...
I wonder if doing a system restore on your PC to a date prior to deleting that outlook profile will do the trick?
contact
nope, a system restore "will not" do the trick!!
Sorry to hear you lost you contacts! I know how you feel... The best thing I have done was to sync with an exchange server. Now all that important data is there if I run into a problem. So whenever I flash a new ROM our screw everything up, I just connect to the Exchange Server and all is well.
I fortunately get to use the sever at my work so no $$ involved.

Syncing Contacts

I recently got a new O2 XDA Ignito and i cant backup my contacts from the phone onto my computer using Windows Mobile Device Centre. It says it is syncing but just doesn't, i cant find the syncd contacts anywhere on my pc. I really need to sort this out because i want to flash my device.
Thanks
Don't bother syncing, search on here for PIMBackup and use that. You will be able to back up all your contacts, calendar, messaging, and then restore after you have flashed.

How do I send my synced contacts with windows mobile device center back to my phone?

I ran windows mobile device center a while ago and saved and synced all my contacts with outlook. I did it this way because unlike with ppc backup programs like pimbackup, it saves their facebook links so I wouldnt have to keep putting them back into my phone. But not I dont know how to send them all back to the phone, I can see them when going to go>contacts, but I cant see any option to resync to my phone or anything ?
Please help

Restore contacts?

Hey there.
Well I uninstalled Microsoft Office, in the hope of upgrading to the latest Office 2010 beta. However my computer's facing issues with office. This weekend I shall be doing a reinstallation of Windows and then get everything back to normal.
A problem has arisen however, relating to my HD2. Since Windows Mobile Device Center was configured to synchronise my contacts, appointments, tasks, etc. The lack of Outlook on my system has caused it to clear out everything, leaving my phone with 0 contacts, 0 appointments.
I thought the way I could restore all these would be to synch with Microsoft MyPhone. So I did so, and well, the sync log has told me it's just removed my contacts and appointments from MyPhone now too.
The MyPhone website is currrently down, so I can't go on to see if there's anything I can do there.
So, my question to you is, how can I get my data back? I presume Outlook would've stored them somewhere.
And how can I prevent this happening in the future?
Thanks,
RJackson.
Edit
MyPhone doesn't delete things, it just archives them. I my data back by going through "Archive" and restoring them. Microsoft MyPhone was down for maintenance when I made this thread, so I was not aware of this.
Can't help with recovering but PIM Backup will help in future, especially if you set it to do a scheduled backup overnight.
