If this has already been discussed, point me in the right direction please, I searched but didn't find anything.
So is there a (free, preferably) way to sync contacts between Thunderbird and my Titan? This would be a tremendous help to me!
-Randy
PS - Looked into Plaxo, didn't seem too seamless.
I've looked into this as well....if it helps to know, I went back to using Outlook...

thanks for the link!
Here's the situation: program looks good, but I'm using this at work on a corporate network that I do not have access to router settings to open a port. So, I cannot use this program unfortunately. Unless you know a way to bypass using a port over the internet.
Any other program suggestions?
I know everybody hates outlook... someone has to have an easy way to sync to Thunderbird

quick google search produced this link:
http://www.downloadsquad.com/2007/02/26/how-to-sync-your-pocket-pc-with-thunderbird-mobile-minute/
Provides info on two possible programs:
Birdiesync
FinchSync (which we already discussed)
Birdiesync, unfortunately is commercial
I'm going give finchsync a try right now
EDIT: reading the link I provided, it appears as if you dont need to access the router at all - you may need to guess a few times until you find a port thats not in use
EDIT 2: Just tried finchsync. Its a little tricky to set-up, but if you follow the directions outlined in the link I provided above, it isnt that bad. Synced my contacts in less than 15 seconds.

Not too bad! Only problem is that it doesnt know how to properly handle multiple info for one particular contact. For example, if you have a contact with multiple email addresses, finchsync will import each address as a separate contact. Clutters up the address book on the phone.
I'm going to suck it up and continue to use outlook...for now...

I'm going to fix my earlier post--TB doesnt know how to properly handle importing outlook contacts. Its an issue on TB end which caused TB to separate contact information so that I have like 2-3 of the same contacts, but with different data in each one.
If you fix all of TB's contacts (or dont import from outlook), finchsync will sync to the pda properly.

thanks for the effort, it just isn't seamless enough for me. i have to be able to connect my phone via USB, press sync and be done with it.
I'm pretty well versed in computers, and have no problem figuring out finchsync, it just isn't practical. i have over 300 contact in outlook too, and most of them have multiple emails, addresses, and contact phone number, it would take forever fixing them once imported to Thunderbird.
thanks though! i'll just have to wait for someone to make a plug-in for thunderbird that makes it "push-button" easy.
makes you wonder about the Staples Easy Button lol
If it is any consolation...I use birdiesync, and it works pretty good.
Thunderbird 3.0 is progressing along in dev, so maybe there will be better functionality going forward.
Post some message on David Ascher's blog for an enhancement request, and maybe it could become a higher priority. Or better jump in with both feet on open source product dev...it sounds like they need the free help.
If the dollar wasn't so down on its luck then birdiesync might not be such a bad deal.
Maybe you can lobby gc14, dcd, and all the other allstars here to work on Thunderbird while everyone waits for the newest thing in the cell phone world.
Can someone say "Creedence Clearwater Thread Revival?"
My two cents(or buck n' a half)
1. Thunderbird - WOW I absolutely LOVE it. HOWEVER their is one little thing that REALLY chaps my ass with it and thats syncing contacts throughout multiple computers. I've done so much googling on the subject you can't see the letters on my keys for "s-y-n-c t-h-u-n-d-e-r-b-i-r-d"
If someone has a good solution for a contact book that can sync BOTH TB and PDA's by all means throw it up here and lets get down to business.
2. Seems this little issue has trickled down to the pda world as well.
3. I'm looking for a TRUE SYNC! NOT a thunderbird workaround replacing the contacts file. Does birdie or Finch do that with the Titan/Mogul?

Can anyone tell me if there is a way to default Pocket Outlook to display First Name, Last Name.
I have set all my contact on the PC to First, Last, but if I create a new contact on the XDA or I edit the name of any contact on the XDA it reverts to Last, First.
I have tried this on a Dell Axim X5 (PPC2003) and this seems to be the same.
Thanks
Matt
Yep got that same prob!! But I got around it by saving the contact to SIM then copy to phone and from there add any additional details.
Hope this helps.

If anyone has an easy answer to this one, I'd be very pleased.
I've been fighting with this one for months.

This will work but as soon as you edit any part of the name in the address book it reverts to Last, First again and you have to repeat the process again!
When you sysn to Outlook 2002/XP go to contact select the contact name you want to edit their is an option called "File as" which is drop down menu. it will display the First AND Last Name . Save AND Close repeat step for other contacts.
Hope this helps :wink:
This doesn't help when you add a new contact on the XDA, it files it LAST, FIRST, until you get a chance to sync the XDA and change it back in Outlook.

Oh boy, my favorite Pocket Outlook annoyance, one of many, since I use the GroupWise 6.5 client with IntelliSync to synchronize. What can I say: masochism, a way of life?
Anyway, I solved it by cutting the last name and appending that to the first name for all (250-300 ) my contacts. Only takes one night and is a real good practise for getting used to the touchscreen.
I have searched on a lot of forums, and only 1 tip can be read time after time: get a different PIM, even if you don't have the issue we're discussing right now.
Really, why Microsoft didn't put an option to change the View in there will probably never cease to amaze me :shock:

The best solution for me is to change all contacts to First Name only containing all full name, but as I am a lazy software engineer I wrote some software to do it. I also wrote it to change any (UK) mobile number it finds to +44 at the start so the caller ID appears when then send sms.
I don't have an ftp site so if anyone wants to e-mail me I can send them a copy - runs on the PC with Office 2000 or greater installed and you can preview what changes it will do before altering anything.
Usual disclaimer applies - Don't blame me and make a back up of your contacts in Outlook before you start.

Hi,
does anyone know how to do this using the standard pocket outlook?
When I try, I seem to have to leave it on one particular account and it checks that one only....
I'm sure pocketpc used to at somepoint did it not?
anyone got any ideas ? or third party programs that are as if not more powerfull AND are just as intergrated...
thanks for anyones help
cheers,
Sorry there is no way to do that with the standard pocket inbox!
HTH
I have to say.... thats quite pathetic
know any 3rd party progz you'd recomend?
thanks again *sighz*

might help.
I read that thanks... too much bloat for my liking though lol... (see I do search the forum lol )
covers up the battery notification on the 'start menu' (kills small menu plus with the GPRS meter thingy)
adds its own battery monitor to the today section (I already use omega one for that :lol: )
and a few other things that I forgot about (uninstalled the GPRS monitor already)
I'm not saying its a bad proggie by any means.... but I do prefer the ones I'm using the now (battery meter etc) and since IE is so crap for surfing the web ( NO OPERA !!!!!! ) I only use GPRS for collecting mail so cost isnt an issue
mail is very important to me though.... and that my friend is where this one comes in
http://www.handdata.com/hdmailpage.htm
does everything it says on the tin :lol:
I'm trying it out for the 15 day trial... anyone that wants this feature should too...
2 niggles...
1. bit expensive for all it does (but then again $20 aint tooooooooooo much)
2. the damn light comes on everytime it turns the device on to check mail... yes I know thats coz I've set it to come out of 'flight mode' to do so but I'm sure outlook manages to check mail without waking the device up fully no?
anyways cheers
was gonna post that link when I had the chance since no one had managed to come up with anything....
scratch that... has anyone managed to get it to work on a 2k3 device?
I cant seem to get it to work.... I thought it was comming on and checking my mail but by the looks of it, it was just the t-mobile 'ghost' bug....
I tried mailing the author but aint recieved a response yet...
anyone had better luck?

I had Inbox working OK on 4.01.00/TMobile (altho I was only using one email account), but tonight I switched to a Kitchen 4.00.16 and can't get it to connect reliably. So maybe it's related to an immature revision of WM2003...
thanks, yeah eventually I did get it working with 1 account although did you think the timer was accurate ?
I cant get it to check multiple accounts tho
cheers
4.01.00 is also the rom I use
I have zero interest in Sprint Picture Mail. However, the account is sort of "hardwired" into the phone and there is no (official) way to disable it that I can find. It doesn't even show up in the list of accounts under Options in Pocket Outlook.
Does anybody know some sort of tweak to get rid of this account?
This would include...
1. Removing it from "send" options when emailing pictures (album)
2. Account chooser for Pocket Oulook
3. TF3D icon on the mail tab

I believe its an extra cab that installs after a hard reset. Try hard resetting, and stopping the customization.
If there are any Sprint cabs you want they are floating around here or ppcgeeks.

Well, that's definitely a solution, but I'd rather not have to hard reset my device. I have the settings just the way I like it now.

I'd love to know how to dump this as well without a hard reset and manually adding the all the other useful cabs myself.
Thanks for posing the question, now to wait for a good answer....
Try downloading the cab from somewhere, installing it, it will say the previous version has to be removed, after it removes the previous version, hit cancel to not install the new version.
Might be worth a shot, although I don't know why you wouldn't want picture mail, it's not like you have to use it, but why remove features?

That is a good idea. I'll have to try that!
As for why, good question. I don't really know why it bothers me so much. Maybe just because I like less clutter? Maybe it's an OCD type of thing. :-D One of the first things I did was install Advanced Config and remove the sprint music/tv tabs because i didn't want to use them, even though i didn't have to use them. :-D

I'm definitely going to try that! Good idea.
As for why, I don't like the extra account when I got from my text to email accounts BUT the main reason is because it works like POO POO! I hate how it is so damn clunky in it's operation and even though I don't use it to send picmail, if I get a picmail it goes in there.
I applaud Sprint for trying but damn, try a little harder next time. I could have done without this particular crap a$$ feature.
I'm also very interested in dumping Sprint Picture Mail. Since we're limited to six accounts in Pocket Outlook, its being there keeps me from adding in another account I actually use, so it's frustrating that they would add that in by default. Tried deleting all of the registry keys, installed files etc that are done as part of the CAB installer, but it's STILL there! Haven't been able to figure out how to bypass the customization step, otherwise I'd do a HR in a heartbeat and see if skipping the CAB install would work, so still awaiting a solution to this...
i tried but sprint mail was not completely removed , i even installed the other version and it got completely installed and i could not un install it using memaid ! there should be a smarter way toget rid of this sprint B/S.
i don't think it can be removed this way.
you will need to load a custom rom without the picmail.
in the time you have wasted waiting for an easy solution you could have flashed and reloaded all of your settings.
Not everybody wants a to use a cooked ROM. You know, it really gets tiring when know-it-alls pop into threads and instead of contributing something useful just say "you should have just done x,y,z instead of doing what you actually wanted to do." It's already been established earlier in the thread that hard resetting (which running a cooked ROM requires) is not an acceptible solution. I do not appear to be alone in wanting an alternative solution. If you don't have a solution or a constructive comment, can't you just, you know, not post anything?
maan76 - Thanks for trying that method out. I've been too busy to tinker. At some point, I'm going to try scouring the registry and DLLs in \Windows\. Pocket Office is extended just like any other MS app -- through DLLs. So unless Picture Mail has been hardwired through some bizarre method or bundled together with a load of other useful features into one big unremovable DLL, I have got to think that there must be some DLL somewhere that can be unregistered somehow -- it just hasn't been discovered yet. I hope anyway! But you never know...

I echo thx2100 but will say the MAIN reasons I don't want to just run a cooked ROM right now is that the only real advantage at this time is they are light on the apps to free up ram. I come from the 6700 and 6800 and I'm in heaven with the speed and ease that the TP has when running multiple apps.
None of the new ROM's right now really dazzle me but if one comes around that is hot sh$# then I might run it.
With my stock ROM I have no surprises and only one really annoying feature which is the picmail but I can live with.
yep I totally agree thx 200,that there is no need for the cooked ROMs right now for the TP , why I am risking myself in a cooked ROM ?????????? to save RAM nop ! RAM is highhhhhhh and we have plenty of it in tp not like the mogul when the people were racing to build a ROM with higher free RAM after booting ! to save couple megabytes !, now with this strong hardware in TP , we have plenty of RAM .
the other reason which drove us before for flashing ROMs is the new applications (ex Manila for htc 6800 mogul ,u tube......etc) now we ve got the most updated versions of these software in the touch pro.
no logic reason for flashing ROMs at this moment , probably when new software will come up or super tweaks that require flashing ROMs , but definetely not now , we are still new and still learning about the Touch pro.I am seeing junior members building ROMs cause it is easy with this 288 MB RAM , I bet nobody was able to build ROMs for the Apache or the Mogul cause of the limited RAM.
we have a long way in improvement in touch pro before building ROMs.

Using MSCEInfo, I've been able to identify every registry change and file modification made by the Sprint PictureMail CAB and have undone them all to no effect. So, either some other routine is making changes related to PicMail or it's hardcoded into the ROM. Hopefully, it's not the latter...
Good luck and please let us know if you find out how to do it. I've pretty much given up and am just waiting to find a stripped down ROM for the Sprint Touch Pro that doesn't include PictureMail, Touch Guide Mobile or any of the other bloatware that Sprint decided we had to have.
Solution Removal Sprint Picture Mail
I found the solution this morning and I successfully removed the sprint picture mail and I also successfully added my yahoo mail
here what you need to do
1-install the sprint picture mail Cab
2-using resco file explorer or anything else go to windows folder
3-in resco explorer , unclick hide hidden files and unclick hilde file extensions
4-look for sprint picture mail cab , next to it you will find sprint picture mail.exe and some other files cary the same name.
5-this .exe is made by the second installation you just made not ROM related , but still you can not remove it ,for some reason.
so rename it into anything .exe , and do the same for the rest of the files including the cab , not delete them all you should be able to do so .
I did these steps exactly in that order and I opened the messages folder and I was soooo happy not seeing the picture mail account .
Good luck guys

Can you point out which specific cab you installed (was it just the one built into the TP ROM?) and which file(s) you removed to get this to work?
Also, can you confirm that this removed the Sprint PictureMail account from both the Outlook account list AND the Mail TF3D tab???

Well I seem to have completely broke my ability to get picmail so I'll hold back on any instructions. I'll do some more testing and may just have to install the freakn program again.... OR I might load up a bare bones ROM and load cab's I see fit, 1 will undoubtedly NOT make the cut.
Hi there, I have searched, I'm sure the answer must be here, but can't find it.
Am I right in saying that the email (not Gmail) program doesn't download emails to allow you to view them when you might not have a connection to a network?
I can't find the setting for this for the life of me, is this one reason to go for a 3rd party program?
Many thanks...
Screen shot the email you want to view for later?
Not really an answer but an alternative.

Thanks, but the whole problem happens when I'm moving about my work which is a large building, I haven't opened up an email yet and when I go to I happen to be in an area where there's no network (cellular or wifi), so I haven't had the chance to screen shot it first.
Any other ideas? Surely others must have found it maddening too?
Sorry to be a pain, but is everyone else experiencing this? Any workarounds?
Many thanks

Not sure if you're correct. I suppose you're referring to the stock email program that comes with the SGS2?. This has been modified slightly by Samsung - but, either that, or the stock android email client both do download a certain amount of your emails from the server - Go into the mail program,clickon the options button,click More...select account Settings,select "Size to retrieve emails", and choose 5 kb as a start. This should cover most txt emails.

That's the problem-I have no option to change the size downloaded.
Any other UK O2 users out there?
Can any other O2 UK users confirm whether they have this setting option our how they've got around this problem?
Many thanks.
K9 mail allows you to set the download amount.
Okay I use twitter a lot and have around 39,000 followers and it makes it hard to keep up with everything. So I use listing to track important things, on iOS I used an app called Twitbird, and it keeps track of lists and searches in a similar way to an rss reader, and shows the number of updates per list along with mentions etc. Also when you enter the list it starts at the exact point you left off at so there's no wasted time scrolling through hundreds of updates just to scroll back up.
Now I have not been able to find an app like this for Android anywhere! So is there any that exist? How hard would it be to create one? Or am I pretty out of luck and will have to keep whipping out the old Iphone?
Sorry if this is in the wrong forum I'm rather new here.
Did you try tweetdeck? It does support lists.

Yes I did try tweetdeck but it doesn't support lists in the same manner of tracking how many tweets have been added to the list and it doesn't start you where you left off reading. It's very frustrating not being able to keep track of my twitter without the old Iphone, its inferior in every other way. There are is also another app that I used to use called "echofon" which didn't have the features I loved from Twitbird but it informed you of any mentions when your tweets where re-tweeted or favorited so when I paired the two together it was great.
I've tried adding my lists to a rss like Google Reader but twitter makes sure that's close to impossible -_-
Ok. I tried some apps, but none of them supports the functions you are looking for. Lists yes, but nothing else.
But since I read your first post...I have to say that I would like to have those features too as Im using twitter mainly for news.
So if you find something, please come back here and tell me about

So I use listing to track important things, on iOS I used an app called Twitbird, and it keeps track of lists and searches in a similar way to an rss reader, and shows the number of updates per list along with mentions etc. Also when you enter the list it starts at the exact point you left off at so there's no wasted time scrolling through hundreds of updates just to scroll back up.
Now I have not been able to find an app like this for Android anywhere! So is there any that exist? How hard would it be to create one? Or am I pretty out of luck and will have to keep whipping out the old Iphone?
Sorry if this is in the wrong forum I'm rather new here.
