how to import nbu file to gmail calendar? - General Topics

hi
i bought galaxy s2 and i wants to import the calendar to gmail
i had the n73 of nokia and i export the file of the calendar
the file name is "2011-06-15 Nokia N73.nbu"
i try to import this file to calendar but i get error notice
"csv" or "lac" file only you can import
how can i import nbu file to gmail?
this is possible?

I do not think this is possible without converting the nbu files to cvs.
You could, however, use NbuExplorer (it's freeware) to do just that and then import the resulting cvs files into gmail.
Also, I cannot post outside links as I am stamped as a "new user", but just google it and you should find it.

i download nbuexplorer
when i export the item of the calendar
i get 3 folder
event,appointment,anniversary
in each folder i have many files of "vcs" (that include the information that i need)
and gmail can not import them
gmail also impory only one file
how can i zip the 3 folder to one cvs file?
thanks

Unfortunatelly I cannot assist you with that, I've never exported nbu files, as my last Nokia didn't even have an integrated calendar that was even remotely useful. Pretty old phone though. I'm sure there must be a help file for NbuExplorer or something of the likes?

i still have the n73 phone
maybe i can sync the calendar with application ?

Google Sync might do the trick, if it is available for your Nokia phone. I've used it before to sync my contacts from my Blackberry to my android phone. I'm not sure about calendar functionality though.
Edit: actually, yes, it seems to support exactly that. You need a google account, but as you have an android phone, I suppose you already do ;-).

I've always read it was not possible, if someone has a soft to do that mp me please

Syncronizing Outlook calendar with .pst

Hi guys!
I need yous help or comments here.
I have PPC WM6, Outlook 2003.
I have downloaded a .pst file for a sports tournament here in South Africa.
I have imported it to my Outlook calendar, and the appointments appear on my PC, but does not sync to my PPC.
I saw something about a PPC not being able to sync personal files etc.
I wanna know, is there an easy way to get the PPC to sync the Appointments to my PPC. I saw some software and stuff, but not sure if there is a easy way to do it?
Can someone help here??
Thanks guys!
I have included a Screenie of how my setup looks! Thanks!
Anyone that can help with this please!
I think there should be some thing in Outlook configuration for selecting your main synce source files. may be outlook only sync your ppc with your default pst file.

Thats indeed what happens.
But how do i get that part of the Calender to sync with the main .pst?
I did in once before, but i used a different .pst file, i think that was configured to link upto the main pst.
Its strange, becuase this .pst that i loaded for the sports event created a second type of calendar, i dont know how to set it to sync with main!
Any ideas??
Thanks guys!
As I understand it, ActiveSync, will only sync the default folders in your OutLook account, i.e. the ones in your exchange server. However, you can specify to Outlook to deliver new mail, appointments, etc. to a pst file automatically, thus making the folders (calendar, contacts, mail, etc.) in the pst file available for syncing to the PPC. This is they way I have setup my PC at the moment. Merely "importing" the pst file to Outlook will not change the default folders that are used to deliver new items and to sync with the exchange server and the PPC. This is why you can see the 2 calendars side by side. If you only want to have some specific appointments made available to the PPC I would recommend just copying them to the default calendar folder.

Hi!
Where is the default calender folder located?
Thanks alot!
(If i copy this .pst to that folder, will it sync??)
Thanks
I'm afraid is not that simple... In the screenshot my PST folders (personal) are on top and my default Outlook Folders are below. In your case your default folder is "CALENDAR" and your PST Folder is "Super 14". Simply copying the folder inside outlook will just create a "Calendar2" folder below the default one. The easiest way would be:
1. Open the "Super 14" Calendar which contains the appointments you want to sync to the PPC.
2. Change the VIEW to "ALL APPOINTMENTS".
2. Then, EDIT -> SELECT ALL.
3. Now you can either EDIT->COPY and EDIT->PASTE them into your "CALENDAR" folder OR move (EDIT->MOVE TO) them there. BUT KEEP IN MIND THAT ONCE THEY ARE MOVED IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO REMOVE THEM FROM THAT CALENDAR, OR TO RETURN THEM TO OLD ONE.
Try it first with a couple of appointments and see if you can sync them to the PPC.
Make a copy of your PST file first, so you can go back if it gets screwed up.

[Q] Transfer contacts/sms from K310i to OmniaII

Hi,
I would like help in how to transfer my contacts and sms messages from my sony ericsson K310i (Java based) to Samsung I8000 OmniaII (Windows Mobile based).
As for transfering contacts, i tried copying all my contacts to sim in my K310 then copy to phone on the I8000, i get weird entries in the form
LastName;FirstName/M (M: for mobile, W for work)
and it recognizes all that as a single name, i.e. if i want to edit the contact, LastName;FirstName/M will all be in the First Name field.
I think there might be a solution using K310 and a PC but i don't have a data cable and it's hard to get one currently.
Any help would be appreciated.
transfer contacts to Omnia II
if you can save your K310i contacts to a .vcf (vcard ) file then there's a windows mobile utility "vcard expert" available from the microsoft & samsung app stores that will transfer your contacts onto your Omnia II with correct formatting.
You could send this vcf file as an attachment in email to yourself then save the attachment to your device and load into the app. So you wouldn't need any data cables to do the transfer.
Thank you for your reply, it helped even if not directly. i forgot to say that i'm missing the K310i data cable not the OmniaII one (so its impossible to export contacts from K310i as the only option available is via infrared), but your info regarding .vcf files gave a new terms to my google searches.
I found an old infrared adapter. I tried first the option to export via infrared from the K310i and got a .vcf file, which when imported in outlook gave me just the first contact (although i opened in a notepad and saw all contacts there), any solutions there?
I then managed to use "My Phone Explorer" to sync contacts with outlook, then sync OmniaII with new contacts.
Now the only thing remaining is that i need to transfer my messages to the phone. My phone explorer can export messages in .sms/.csv/.txt file formats. I tried imobiletool sms backup to restore a .sms/.csv files but without luck (the WM program will not even see the file. and the pc program will give "file validation error" when tried to import). Any insight as how to import .sms messages?
Edit: I found a program that can split the single vcf file into multiple files each one for a contact, callud suppcom vcard splitter. still outlook has no right to refuse the single vcf file!
Edit: Its damn annoying that all the SMS backup/restore programs i found only restore backups created by the same program...sigh, is there no standards or compatibilty between programs??
Anyone have a solution to transfer sms to windows mobile phone, please?

[Q] How to sync Windows (or iPhone) contacts to Tab?

Ok, I've given up trying to figure this out on my own, simply because the unfortunate keywords involved will show me Google results on just about anything other than what I need.
I want to sync my Windows contacts to Tab. Kies software does not see them. I don't have an Outlook, since Windows 7 64 bit has live mail instead. I've tried exporting contacts to VCF format, and then importing them through Kies but that didn't help either.
I also have an iPhone 3Gs that syncs to the same computer, using those same Windows contacts without a problem. Is there a way to get the contacts from iPhone?
I may be asking too much, but I'd also love to keep my contact photos that are neatly attached to many of my contacts.
This is really driving me crazy and any help would be appreciated.
Why not try exporting your contacts to CSV and then import the file into your Google address book (Contacts) online?

I don't really use Gmail. I have private server POP mail accounts and I keep my contacts on my iPhone, laptop and home PC.
Am I to get used to idea I'm gonna have to start using Google for e-mail, contacts, calendar etc.?
Use contact manager on your iphone to create a CSV and then email the file through the app to any email address you use, then on your tab log into that email account and save the CSV to your tab, then on the tab to into contacts and select import and it should find the file and loads them
that's how I did it

The problem is that CSV file doesn't pass contacts photos.

Export to VCF and import that into Google's Contacts. You don't need to really use gmail if you don't want to, but the gmail address book is the most convenient way of keeping track of your contacts. Plus you can then edit them from any PC with a web browser..
VCF (vCard) can embed images. I don't know if M$ Live Mail can write VCF with embedded images, though. But thats what you should try.
Just sync it with outlook contacts u can update with iphone and then pass to the tab. That's what in doing and when I change anything on the tab I just create a new sync so the.next sync with the.iphone will be clean and won't replace any contact.

You can export your outlook contacts as a csv file then email it to your gmail account

[Q] New Xoom user...import Outlook Contacts

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.

Adding iCal file to JB phone possible? Not Google Calendar.

My university provides an online calendar with export function. This is a link leading to an ical file which is updated from time to time.
In iOS it is possible to add this ical file but not in Android 2.3.
Now I got a Glaxy Nexus, with Android 4.2.2.
Can you tell me how to add this ical file there?
Specifically I mean adding it to the phone not adding the file to Google Calendar, which is possible.

The calendar on your phone and your Google calendar are one in the same. Unless you are not syncing your phone calendar. If you want to add that calendar without touching you Google calendar you could try this app. It will allow you to import your file.It is not free but IMO is the best Calendar app out there. https://play.google.com/store/apps/...?t=W251bGwsMSwyLDYsIm1pa2Fkby5iaXpjYWxwcm8iXQ..
It is not the same.
Google checks for updates in ical files only from time to time, could also be a few hours.
The problem is, the file is not meant for download. On iOS I can add it as an additional calendar and it is checked perfectely.
Is there a function for Android too, without downloading the file. It stays on the universitys server.
Busines Calendar only lets me import local files, not online files.
