Hi,
What is the best app to sync Note 8 to windows 8.1 with wireless connection to be able syncing contacts, calendar and files.
Personally I don't recommend using cloud storage so I need to transfer my data from PC to tablet and vice versa
Thank you
for files BitTorrent Sync is the best and most secure
Try Davdroid with a custom cal server like Owncloud.

I store all my PIM data for Calendar and Todo in a .ical file on a remote server owned by me. My PIM application suite on my computer (not a Mac, I don't use iCal) is able to sync with this file and it's incredibly convenient for me to use.
However I would very much like to be able to sync Windows Mobile 6 with this so I can edit/view it on the go. Does anybody know if this is possible? If it isn't possible to sync it directly to a remote server I do not mind manually synchronising it too.
Bump.
If this is not possible using the built-in calendar and todo application does anybody know/recommend a calendar + todo suite that can sync with a remotely hosted ical? Through FTP would be good. I don't mind a one-way sync (server -> phone).
Or if that isn't possible either, what about an import service?
Can HTC Sync app that syncs Outlook with Android can it be used with Galaxy S phone?
I'm looking for option to sync with outlook that DOES NOT require me to upload my data to google.
Kies doesn't require you to use the cloud to sync your PIM data
You may want to do a search for and check out "Android Manager". This is what I use over Wi-Fi for Outlook sync. I like it better than Kies myself.
anyone else tried Android Manager?
I also use android manager You can sync Contacts , Calender , Images, Videos or any other folder you choose.
Application is quite stable (I personally find it much more stable than MyPhoneExplorer).
best part its free.

The full Kies does not work with Captivate and Kies Mini has limited functionality.
I use MyPhoneExplorer to sync my outlook data. It has a PC program where you can edit/add/delete contacts and when you connect the phone to the PC it starts the companion app on the phone to make the transfer. No Google cloud needed and haven't had any stability issues with it.
Out of curiosity, I installed Android Manager on my PC. Unlike MyPhoneExplorer, it does not interface directly with Outlook. I'm unsure of how you even get your Outlook data into the program as the only import format it appears to support is .pbf, which is not a format Outlook can export to. If either of you guys have a way to do this, please post it. Thanks.
EDIT: OK, I played around with it some more and got it figured out. I am now an Android Manager user. Much easier to use than MyPhoneExplorer once you get it setup properly and I like not having to use a cord to sync. I wonder why this great app never shows up on lists of ways to sync Outlook with Android? First I heard of it was in this thread and I looked a lot when I first got the phone. Thanks for the tip.
My work has turned off the USB ports on our computers. Therefore, I can no longer sync my phone via activesync with Outlook. I've been looking and cannot find a simple way of exporting my contacts and calendar to something that I can then sync my phone to, while preserving all of the data included.
Can someone recommend something that will do this while preserving contact pictures and calendar categories, etc?
FYI, I'm using WinMo 6.5
Thanks.
Upload them online to either Windows Live account or Gmail account.
Gmail preferred. It will store your contacts, calendar, etc.
Otherwise try PIMBackup
I should have stated, that I need to get the contacts and calendar off of my work PC. I know about google sync for calendars, but there isn't something similar for contacts.
The only methods that I have found do not save categories or contact pictures. I'd like to find something that equals what activesync can do when it transfers new info to my phone.
Since I got my new ATRIX, I tried to get my calenders from Thunderbird (Ubuntu) working on my Android smartphone.
- Up to now I could not find any working solution for me. Even applications for Windows (running in a virtual machine) I tried. -
Please Help !
What I want to do ? Sounds very easy and probably the solution is the same for Linux, Windoz and Macintoy.
-> I have several calenders (private, office, visitors, ...) local (!) on my computer saved as ics files.
An example : file:///media/daten/.../Email/lightning/calendar/Privat.ics
These calendars I want to copy on my smartphone and to use them (import ?) in an calendar application. I do not want to use any cloud, google calender construction. Just copy (may be convert) and use. Even synchronisation is not necessary, because the changes mainly I do on my notebook. As I said sounds easy, but it seemed not to be easy.
I have no idea how the other Thunderbird users manage to use their local calendars on the smartphone. Or am I the last "not-cloud" user ;-)
I use the plugin "Zindus" to sync my adress book from thunderbird.
To sync the calendars, i have them setup on google and connect to them from thunderbird.
So you could import your calender .ics files into google kalendar, which will be synced to your device and to which you can connect TB also.
I use this...

Hello,
Is there any software that could sync my Nexus S as I used to do with my Nokia. Unfortunately, I dont have a data plan on my phone else would have done via google. So any way ?
Sync what?

Android Sync
Without a data plan, my first choice would be to keep data access disabled (in Settings>>Wireless and Network Settings>>Mobile Networks) and to sync over wifi to your google account.
If that isn't an option, The only third-party suites I'm aware cost around $40. Do a web search for "android desktop sync" and you'll find them.
Samsung does have their Kies Sync software for some models, but at least according to their website there isn't any software for the Nexus S models.
Good luck.
I used to have no wireless internet (now I have and don't really use it)
Contacts, calendar. events added in the device will sync next time you connect to wifi.
For gmail I usually sync 30 days to the phone so I can access everything offline.
However I would like a pc or online suite in the future, something like palm desktop where you can sync official mail, contacts, calendar, tasks, expenses, notes, apps, office docs and settings. Something more integrated..

Everything you do with Google is available or accessible on their website so nothing to "sync" with a computer in the traditional sense via USB cable.
If you need stuff local then you can do like I do. On my Mac, I have Contacts and Address Book and Mail configured with my Google account so any changes I make on phone is replicated (synced) to those programs.

I downloaded mybackup pro & made a backup. But its an app. I miss the conventional style of backing up using Nokia PC Suite
Doubletwist can sync your music and photos
