If you expect people to realistically be able to assist you then you'll need to provide far more detail, what you're doing, what you've tried, any messages you're getting especially any errors, has it ever worked etc....
ie...have you plugged the cable in? see what I mean
i think he is referring to the automatic syncing
check if under
settings>accounts & sync
background sync & auto sync are checked & your accounts have been added under that

That's my point though...does he mean Outlook or Google or HTC Sync installed on PC , there's so many options, and with so little information there is little we can do to assist.

I got a new problem :-(
Active Sync went through, after it says, there was a problem on the desktop, nothing else.
I found out, that my calendar did not sync.
What can this be for a reason?
I am getting crazy with this active sync probs!
It´s an old problem that I have from time to time with all my WM devices.
Here is the only way to solve it:
1. Export your personal outlook folders to a new PST.
2. Go to control panel -> inbox -> data file management, add the new pst, make it default.
3. Open Outlook once and close it
4. Go back to the data file management and remove the old pst from the list.
5. Delete parthnership and resync.
good luck

OK. I tried to follow up your suggestions. I exported the pst file from Outlook but I can not follow up your further recommendations.
Can you please explain a little bit more detailled?
Thank you.
I don´t understand in what point you want more details. All those topics have do be done at your PC.

try:
control panel -> mail -> email accounts
view or change existing email accounts
next
new outlook data file
select that file in drop down box next to that button
click finish
click data files
select old pst file
click remove
The aim is to use another lokal store for your outlook data. they are stored in a file with .pst extension. you have do attach a new file and after starting and closing of outlook at your pc you have to delete the old pst-file. use the topics i´ve told. so you surely will get rid of your sync problem
does it work now?

My problem involves the fact my calendar won't sync everything from Outlook 07'. My iPhone does not have this problem. I followed the instructions stated, but this did not work for me. The appointments that aren't syncing involve series from the past, but single occurrences apparently sync. Someone please help me alleviate this issue.
I have somehow ended up with a ton of duplicate entries on my xv6900 . . . does anyone know of a good way / program to take care of this? I've found a lot of programs online for doing it through Outlook, but I'm not willing to drop $40.00 to fix it (yet) . . . help!
depend on how many contacts one have really with my number
i would del them so it match in outlook and then set activesync to
make my pda mirror outlook on pc
sync and then set it back to merge from both so contacts added on
the pda would not be whiped when one sync
problem solved! check the app posted in this thread:
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=34711&highlight=duplicate+contacts
also there is a problem when syncing to your outlook on your pc if you have any or work. then when you sync to your personal email out side of that.
some people have multiple hotmail, outlook ( work ) aol, gmail.
go into your sync on the phone and under sync uncheck the outlook that way it wont do both also.

Any chance there is a solution for the calendar?
Is there any solution to get synced with outlook/windows calendar and contact?
The focus is on google applications, so if you search for ways to sync them with google calendar etc it will sync that way.

Yes I understand even if, IMHO, they can't loose integration with M$ systems...
However I used google calendar sometimes ago trying to keep synced blackberry, nokia and outlook... it made me a lot of confusion because it duplicates calendar appointments and gave me also other problems...
Now I can give it a try again.
But, what to do to sync contacts?
I found Google Apps Sync for Microsoft Outlook.
I'll give it a try..
If you have any other suggestion you're welcome

I tried.. it requires Google Apps Premier version.. unusable due to 40€/year subscription needed!!
So I need to find another way again.

try this: http://www.android-sync.com/
It works a lot like htc sync. It does contacts and single calendar entries. they're still working on recurring calendar events.
I'm still looking for a fully working solution.
I tried android-sync but I can't get it working. App hangs during sync and I can't have feedback about sync status.
Actually I can't believe there is no official way to get my device synced with my PC... how anyone can use the phone without contacts and calendars????
Do you think this is why froyo is not an official release?
I use gsyncit http://www.daveswebsite.com/software/gsync/ to sync outlook contacts and calendars with gmail then phone obviously syncs with the gmail server. Gsyncit works very well and is very customisable. At $15 one off cost it's a bargain in my book. (prob the first software I've actually bought)

Hi Diamond...
do you need to manually press the sync button or something to sync any changes you made in your outlook?
for wm6.5...when u change something in outlook...it auto sync with the phone
i am a bit hesitant to move to android due to this
thanks

Goto Settings -> Accounts & sync
Select the Google account
un-tick Sync contacts and Sync Calendar
That works after you setup the account but there does not seem to be a way to disable the initial sync of calendar and contacts and once I disable syncing of those items it does not get rid of any that it has downloaded.
Any other thoughts on how to disable syncing of google calendar and contacts from the start?

reset yoyr phone to factory specs. then restart your phone. when the htc setup wizard starts skip over everything. once the home screen loads go to settings, sync. now uncheck calander and contacts. now click on add google account, enter in your google information. calander syncing and contact syncing now should not occur (make sure they are still unchecked though)
Hi,
In my Desire S,
------------------Ignore this part - solved
under Manage Accounts, there is google and a few others.
I want to remove some of those others like News, Weather and Stocks.
How to do that ?
-----------------
need an answer for the part below.
Secondly there are some processes which i can see running on process monitor but do not show on the app drawer. they are probably related to some telco apps which i do not need and would like to uninstall.
Would this require rooting ? Any other way to uninstall those unnecessary apps ?
thanks
thanks
Hi,
I know you can sync your google calander to the HTC calander, however even tho i have the google account signed in and set up (I also know it works cause my contacts sync) i cant get the calander to, and when i go into accounts & sync, manual tell it to sync, it comes up syncing but nothing appears in my calander??
I also herd that in the drop down menu in calander you have pc sync, calander and then you should have option for google calander but i dont.
Have i done something wrong or need to tell the phone to do something??
Cheers
Can anyone help?
Download business calendar from market then uninstall it. It should work.
Or factory reset.
Those 2 methods work for me. Hope can help u.
Send from my awesome HTC Sensation + XDA Premium app.
Might be a dumb question - but have you activated Google calendar to be shown??
Check in the settings of Calendar which ones are shown and which ones not...
- mwie -
Yeah i have checked and its not an option in the drop down list. I only have pc sync
But when i go to sync and force it to sync still nothing.
i dont want to factory reset, thats too much hassel, i try the bussiness download.
Downloading the bussiness one actually worked, i now got the option to tick untick the google one in HTC. Im just not sure if i like the business one better than the HTC one now.
Thanks anyways im going to run both and see which one i like.
I cannot find business calendar on the market place?
Any ideas?
