My outlook contacts folder is full of crap. Lots of email addresses I never ever use and I don't really want them on my xda.
Is there some way to make the XDA synchronise with a different location on the PC so that I can back up my contact list on the xda but without downloading all the useless bumf from outlook?
Thanks,
Daniel
Furthermore - is there any way to make it synchronise with an OUTLOOK EXPRESS address book rather than outlook?
- you won't be able to synchronize with Outlook Express...that's why they provided a copy of Outlook with the device.
However, if you are interested in synchronizing with other contacts folders give this a try.
Hi thanks for the reply -
a while of fiddling actually brought up this simple (?) solution -
every contact i make on my xda i put into the "xda" category. Then when I sync i tell them to only sync the "xda" category.
That outlook plugin does look interesting - thanks for the link!

I know of 2 programs that claim to allow syncing with Outlook Express:
1) SyncExpress 2002

2) Intellisync

Hope this helps.

Hi,
I'm about to upgrade to the latest ROM, and I think I need to save my contact list before I do it - is that right?
However, in activesync, there is no check-box to tick next to contacts, so it can't synchronize them for me. I use outlook express, so I thought it should be simple enough. What's wrong?
Is there any other simple way of retaining my contacts during an upgrade, because I'm not really fussed about having them on outlook.
Thanks for any help,
Phil
without being sure then i think that use need to use outlook and not outlook express to have contacts
outlook 2k came free on the cd of both my xda1 and 2
Outlook 2002 is hacking me off
Aaargh - please help!!!
After Rudegar's suggestion to use Outlook 2002 rather than Outlook express, I fished out the CD that came with my XDA II and installed Outlook 2002 and activesync onto a new PC.
Activesync connects OK and tries to sync my contacts as I wanted it to, but Outlook is messing about, and the contacts end up unresolved. When I try to do anything to do with contacts in Outlook, it says "Could not open the Item - try again". Even simply manually creating a new one.
So I thought I'd set up an email account - perhaps I need one to have contacts, but the help file says to go to "Tools" and "Email accounts", but there isn't an "Email accounts" option on the tools menu!
Outlook is really hacking me off now - all i want to do is to have somewhere to store my contacts whilst I do a ROM upgrade - this is CRAZY!!
PLEASE help - this is doing my nut!
Phil
:evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil:
did you set up your mail account in the inbox of your device ?
if you click the account menu and choose new account you should begin setting up your account
about the resolve conflicting then under options in activesync there are a place where you set up rules as to how activesync handle conflicts
also people seem to be reporting issues with usb'ing their xda devices with
windows 9X (ME) series os
I'm not sure I understand - I don't actually use pocket outlook on the device. I was talking about setting up an account on my laptop so that outlook 2002 would allow me to have a contact list on the laptop which I would then use to store the contacts on whilst I do a rom upgrade on the XDA II....
contacts is pocket outlook along with the calander and tasks and appointments
if you mean that you had issues setting up an account on the outlook on the pc then choose tools
choose services
and add mail
there isn't a services item on my tools menu...

I could not sync SMS message from ROM 1.72 to Outlook 2003. Does anyone come across this? Please help. Thank you in advance. :?:
Outlook works only for e-mails not SMSs
That is interesting, my Outlook 2003, had SMS function. Yours don't?

My Out2K3 hasn't this feature too. How did you get?
I bought the Office 2003 package, just install Outlook 2003 with it. It is embedded the SMS function.

As I said, I have Outlook2003 too (from Off2K3 Pro version), but it only synchronizes e-mails to "account" ActiveSync on my XDA2.
Could you post some screenshots, please?
Would you try to Open your Active Sync then "Tools" --> "Options..." --> select Inbox --> "Settings..."
You will find there is an check box for SMS sync. I had check that box but nothing happen after sync.
With Outlook 2K3, when you select Mail, you will easily found there is a SMS folder under Personal Folders :?
Sorry for I do not know how to capture the screen for you.
Hm... My ActiveSync will open window Opening settings when I click on Settings button, after while it's closed and nothing happens... :? :x
Have you installed the Out2K3 after instalation of ActiveSync or before?
Thanks.
As far as I can remeber, I installed Outlook 2K3 before Activesync. :roll:
I finally capture the screen for you
I have Office 2003 (with Outlook) as well. I do not see SMS in ActiveSync Inbox Settings either. In fact, it has never been there.
I do not believe this can work with ActiveSync alone. What ActiveSync is showing you are the folders in your server mailbox. It would be possible to create a folder named SMS and sync that, but it would not contain the SMS messages from your mobile . . . the SMS account in your Pocket Outlook is just that, another account. This can not be synchronized with a folder - it's an apples vs. oranges thing.
There may be another tool that can do it, but I do not believe ActiveSync can do it.
OK - I guess your screenshot has proven me wrong.
What server software are you using for your email (connecting Outlook 2003 to)?
Is it MS Exchange, Lotus Notes, something else?
What version?
Brian,
Sorry that I am not so good in software. I do not use a server for email. I just using a stand alone Outlook 2K3 in my personal computer.
Hi,
Does anyone know if it is possible to synchronise The new Mozart 7 with Outlook for contacts and calender ?
Thanks.
That is the way I have got my contacts etc onto my Mozart ignoring the sim card route although it was via work Outlook by Exchange
The only way I managed to do this was to setup a hotmail account and copy all of my contacts within outlook. Provided you have the outlook connector installed you can add the new hotmail account to your mozart and the next time you sync it will transfer over all your contacts and appointments.
unfortunately i have the 64-bit microsoft office, outlook doesn't work with wmdc or seemingly anything else, never has worked and microsoft seems in no hurry to fix this, oh well, luckily most fo my contacts were in my windows live ID so it all got synced
I've got it syncing via exchange. Have to say for all it's failures (it is going back sadly) at least it syncs outlook flawlessly but then it is a Microsoft product..
Have sync'd two exchange accounts, contacts, calendars... and it's smart enough to not double up on duplicate contacts.
There is no ActiveSync possible in WP7. You have to sync via some sort of online service (Hotmail, Gmail, Exchange, etc).
FYI, even Microsoft recomend against using Office 64bit unless you are working with mega huge spreadsheet type data (4GB+ files).
how to sync notes and tasks from outlook 2007 to WM7?
does anyone know how to do a GAL lookup after you setup the device with an exchange account?
Synchronization with Outlook
Hello,
It's possible to calendar, contact...
1) You must add a microsoft plugin in Outlook 2010 (Outlook.Connector)
2) Create a new account (ex : [email protected])
(This account should be the same as WM7 phone account)
3) The news informations of calendar or contacts are send in account @live.fr
when you click on SEND/RECEIVE
4) You start "Hotmail App." on the mobile (with your account) and you synchronize.
5) The news "Outlook Informations" are now in your mobile phone
Best regards
SL
It's strange, but I want to sync only calendar and contacts with my work account (Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync account).
In my old HTC Wildfire, under Settings-Account, I was able to choose what items I want to sync: calendar, contacts and/or email.
But with my new SGSII I can only choose calendar, contacts and task.
I can't tick or untick the email mark, it isn't.
It works well, syncing my email, but I don't know how to deactivate email sync and go on with calendar and contacts sync.
Does anybody know how to do this, is the diference the android version ? (if the cause is the version, what about ICS ?
Thanks a lot.
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks
Moving to Q&A
