Outlook Exchange Calender Sync Issues - HTC Sensation

My phone isn't syncing all of my Meeting requests. I created about 20 of them but it's only syncing a few. Any ideas?
I deleted Exchange from my phone and then set it up again and that didn't fix the issue. Also hard reset my phone for kicks. Running stock Sensation. Same before and after the OTA update I got today.
The meetings are on my calender in Outlook, but some aren't showing up on my phone.
It's driving me nuts. The dates are correct and all of that. Don't get it. I manually entered them on my phone and they showed up as a double entry in Outlook on my laptop. So it's syncing from phone to Exchange fine, but missing some entries that I created in Outlook.

What version of Exchange are you running?
If you delete one of the entries (that isn't showing on the phone) from Outlook and re-create it, does it then show up?
Are any of the missing events set in the last 2 weeks? This is the default sync period on my phone, so any events scheduled for before then won't sync.

Activesync only updating 100 appointments

Hi, I need some assistance with an activesync issue. My PIM.VOL file got too large. I deleted it. Archived some of my appointments on my PC and now when I try to re-sync the data, activesync appears to only add 100 of my old appointments with each sync connection. The problem is that I have over 1,500. How do I force a full re-sync of the whole calendar file?
I know this is a pretty 'old' topic..
But I ran into the same issue this week.
Anybody know how to resolve this???
This looks like something similar to what I went through. I was trying to sync my Outlook 2007 Contacts, Appointments, etc., from Windows Vista, to my ATT Tilt and it was only copying (about) 50% of the data to the phone. On a whim I decided to see if my PST needed a repair. So, I ran SCANPST.EXE, it detected and proceeded to fix errors, and all my contacts seem to be on the phone now.
Unfortunately (?) I don't sync with my Outlook, but with Exchange 2007 SP1 directly over wlan...
It syncs exactly 100 appointments, waits for about ten minutes, asks for my login credentials and does another 100. And keeps on doing that until it's finished (I guess), I've not waited/tried till it said 'finished'...

Why not wait until it finishes to see if you're, at least, copying them all over? If not, then it's plan B...
Tried that yesterday.... Started at 7pm and quit at 1am.... At that point it was (maybe) 60% done... That was late enough for me...
The problem seems to be solved now....
Somehow the setup of Exchange entered the fqdn of the server in the internal address for ActiveSync instead of the url my exchange is on...
If it is solved I will post it here within a day...
Later that day....
No issues, popups etc so far.. Also changed the syncing period to 6 months instead of 'All'... Maybe that helped too....
Glad to hear that you're up and running. I know that when I was having the problem, I was pulling what hair I have left, out.

Email not syncing,...

Everyone,
This is a curious one,... I came back to Europe from the US on Friday morning, turned on my htc touch pro, and my email synced up fine, emails, calender, tasks, et.al., but since Friday morning, will not sync emails,...
I changed nothing, and I've checked everything, but I cannot get the damn device to sync emails again,...!
Any thoughts on this are appreciated,...

Are you OTA syncing mail?
If so and you probably have checked it but i'll mention it any way as it caught me out recently, check your ActiveSync schedule settings are not set to "Manual". Mine switched to manual recently and it took me a while to work out why i wasn't receiveing mail.
thanks deedee, and yes, this is the first thing i checked and in the activesync program on the device, it's set to, 'as items arrive' so, no problem there,...
what's stranger though, is activesync is showing that i am 'connected' to ms exchange, and my calender sync's,... i can also get on the internet via gprs and ie,...
this is making me crazy, but in any case thanks for the reply,...
ek
i thought it probably was the first thing you had checked, but i posted it as much so that a new face will find it as a solution as anything else. Having only recently gone to push email it took me a while to find it the first time my email stopped being pushed.
o.k., now i am really confused, since i did this test,...
i went to my pc and put in to the 'tasks' a new task called 'test task,' waited a few minutes, and then synced the htc touch pro through activesync and my french orange sim card,... then went to 'tasks' on the htc, and the 'test task' was there,...
i then deleted it on the htc, hit 'sync' in activesync, then went to my pc, and the 'test task' was deleted,...
so, why are my tasks, calender items and contacts syncing and not my emails,...? and especially since they synced fine, once, on Friday morning,...?
and further to all this, i just dropped my sim card in to my old htc tytn II, which i have not synced since oct08, and all emails, contacts, calender and task items synced perfectly in about 2-minutes, so, not my ms exchange server,... must be the htc touch pro, a setting or something,...
thanks for your thoughts and help on this, but still not resolved,...
ek
just for info, what i had to do is delete all sync relationships and re-install them, and then re-sync,...
all is working now, but still a mystery why this happened after returning from the US,...
thanks for the reply again deedee,...

[Q] Error syncing contacts from Live

I'll be as brief as possible. If you need clarification, just ask. I don't expect to solve this problem quickly, but any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.
I cannot sync contacts with my main Live account (which is set up with Windows Live Domains). Whenever I leave the Contacts option checked, the phone displays "Attention required" after a few minutes of syncing, and then "Error 0x86000106". It also briefly displays "Contacts: 1/0".
Emails and appointments sync flawlessly on that account, and contacts syncing works flawlessly with *any other* accounts I have, even with another Live account with a custom domain.
Here's what I tried so far, without success:
- Posted this problem to the Microsoft Answers forum (no help)
- Hard resetted the phone
- Changed phone's time zone
- Changed phone's region and language
- Enabled logging (where's that log stored?)
- Removed and readded all my contacts (I have about 120 contacts)
- Tried syncing with just one or two contacts
- Tried syncing via both WiFi and OTA
- Tried changing some personal info on the account profile
I've actually found that error code on Microsoft's website, but they say it's related to Outlook/Exchange and Activesync (it's trying to sync a corrupted item, and removing the offender causes the sync to continue). However, I cannot imagine how that corruption could be possible as I am not using Outlook.
Any ideas? Is it possible to "clear" the account in any way?
Bump... Anything? Anyone? I had resetted the phone a few more times, still no luck.
Try this
Uncheck sync contacts, then sync the whole thing. Then check sync contacts and see if it works
wpxbox, thanks for the reply. I can't uncheck to sync contacts now because this is my primary ID (I can only uncheck email). However, I did some tests a while ago and used this ID as a secondary account - unchecking Contacts would yield a successful sync, but the error would come back if I check Contacts again.
Just as you said above, its probably trying to sync a corrupted contact, and removing the corrupted contact should let it sync successfully. It doesn't matter if you are using Outlook or not, the server itself is a Microsoft Exchange server, and very rarely, something like this happens.
More than likely, you'll have to find the offending contact and try to sync again.
I would export all my contacts, delete them from my Live account (clear it out completely), then separate the exported contacts into groups of 10 or 20 contacts each, and then import each group, and sync after each import. This will allow you to make sure your contacts all sync successfully, and if there is a corrupted one, you can narrow it down to the last group you imported of 10 or 20 contacts. Makes it easy to track down the culprit.
That would be a god way. Good idea
prjkthack, thanks for the reply but I already did that. Phone won't sync even with an empty contact list. Still could be a corrupt contact, but where would it be? I used Outlook to access the contacts list and see if something comes up but no luck either (btw, Outlook syncs flawlessly).
And before someone say it, I already contacted Microsoft about it but they just keep sending me back and forth between the Microsoft Answers team, the Windows Live Mobile team and the Windows Live forum without giving me any solutions at all.
Nothing? Oh well, I'm doomed....

Recurring calendar event synch problem - solved

I had been having issues of recurring calendar events not synching in newer ROMs based on ICS/CM9 and JB/CM10. This was on an exchange calendar, but I had read of the same issue on Google calendar. I think the issue was related to recurring events having no end date.
What worked for me was to open the recurring event in Outlook (on a PC), add an end date, save, and then sync. After fixing just one like that, I could then see all my recurring events on my phone. I changed it back to no end date, refreshed again, and the events remained as they should on my phone. Just to check, I rebooted, and all was still good. This worked for me. YMMV

Contacts not restoring from Exchange server on Android L

Anyone who flashed the new android L factory image facing this issue where not all the contacts from exchange server are getting sync'd?
Not working for me either. Also calendar from Exchange (Office 365 in my case) is not getting synced, and I cannot even see it in the list of available calendars.

Can you sync email normally? I couldn't even sync email since it told me exchange services has stopped every seconds
E-mail sync works fine, and even the Exchange policies came through correctly (PIN & encryption in my case). Posted question to Google Product forums as well.
UPDATE: Now after 2,5 hours of waiting, I do see calendar items and also contacts being synced from Exchange, so I'm considering this working for me at least for now.
My exchange is not working. Just syncing mail forever (nothing ever comes up) and calendar wont show. I have cleared data for exchange and gmail and deleted and readded the account several times. No luck at all. Please help me, I need to get to my work mail!!
Just an update. The issue is now resolved.
Here is what I did: I completely removed the exhange server account. Reset phone. Create exhchange server account and let it do it's thing while it was pulling down the info rather than try to much around with the phone this time around. Worked just fine. All contacts / emails / calendar everything sync'd correctly. I am connecting to outlook.office365.com.

During the time for syncing, have you received any notification ( error) which tells you the "Exchange services has stopped" ?

Hi, please help me. I have a company Exchange account on my N5 and everything works well, except the contacts sync. If I create a new contact on Nexus 5, it won't be sync to Exchange. In the opposite direction - from desktop to N5 - works well. (I choose the "Exchange contact", if I create a new contact, please tell me other something...) All the other syncs work well, like calendar, e-mail, only this way doesn't work. So what is your opinion, your method can help me as well? Or it is a bug in Lollipop? If I remember, it worked well with 4.4.4, but I'm not sure
I deleted all phones from Exchange (there were N5 a few times and my last phones as well) and my Exchange account from phone as well. Next I sync and the result is: when I create a new contact on the N5, it will be appear in the "Recommend Contacts" account. Then I can move it to "Contacts" account. It isn't complete solution, but better then earlier
