Outlook E-Mail Question - Touch Pro CDMA

Is there any way to completely sync my Inbox so it looks exactly like my inbox when I log in at my office? It seems like after some time (hours or days--not exactly sure) older messages that are still in my inbox in Outlook on my computer are no longer in my inbox in Outlook on my HTC Touch Pro.
Thanks!!

This is how it goes with an Exchange Server...
On your phone, go to ActiveSync-->Menu-->Options-->E-Mail (Under Microsoft Exchange)-->Settings
In Settings, tap the drop down menu for "Download the past:" and select "All"
This should allow for your entire Inbox to be accessible on your phone.
Alternatively, to save space on your phone and network data usage, you can select any of the increments of time.
Hope that helps

That did it!! Thanks for your help

no problem, glad I could help!

can't synchronize contacts

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...

Synchronizing outlook

Hi is there a way to upload all your outlook emails from pc to the athena and vice versa? If thats possible, how do i do that?
thanks in advance.
It is an option in ActiveSync. When connected double click the email row and you will have an options box that allows you to download the past 'n' days email, including an option for 'All'
And in messaging under Outlook E-mail->Menu-> Tools Manage Folders
you can select which floders you want to sync.
Thanks for the reply, i really appreciate it!

[Q] issues with email tab and outlook...any ideas?

Hello bros.
My question is about the email tab and pocket outlook: I know that there is a bug in email tab, because it doesn't allow to delete emails from server and HD2 at the same time.
So we must do it directly from outlook or when we sync, the emails are redowloaded again...That's ok. Emails are not redownloaded when I sync my inbox.
The problem is that even if I follow this procedures, when I come back to my PC and I download my emails with the usual browser or app, the emails are not cancelled from servers and I find hundreds of emails in my inbox...
I do not know what to check to stop this behaviour...
any ideas?
(my pocket outlook has the flag on "delete emails on next connect/reconnect)
thx in advance
ahi ahi ahi
Despite my efforts, I confirm that I can not erase emails from the server using Pocket Outlook (let alone the HTC email tab of course.) I can just avoid the redownloading emails on my HD2 if I delete them directly from Pocket Outlook. Unfortunately, when I check my emails from my PC, they are always there...
maybe a problem of gmail or yahoo settings I have to do directly in the webmail?
I checked also this possibility, but I cannot figure out how... it seems to me that is everything fine...
so nobody has a solution or at least an idea of what to do?
thx

[Solved] Mass Removing Contacts from Gmail Sync

I set up my Galaxy S II Skyrocket to sync with both my personal and work Gmail accounts. Trouble is, it synced about 4,000 contacts from the work Gmail.
Now, I understand that I can hide those in the display options, but I want them gone completely. I deselected "Contacts" from syncing with my office Gmail, but the huge number of contacts remains.
How can I remove the contacts that are attached with specifically the work Gmail, and leave behind my own personal contacts?
Thank you for the help.
Edit: Well, it figures I'd spend a week figuring this problem out, only to solve it the moment I ask for help. For those who may have a similar problem and stumble across this thread in the future, here's how I solved it:
I downloaded Samsung Kies to sync my phone with my PC.
I then performed a full backup of my phone (especially the contacts).
On the left hand side of Kies, under the section labeled "Connected devices," I selected "Contacts" from under my phone. I then selected the tab with my synced emails, and from there could easily select all the contacts associated with the offending account, and deleted them.
Click "Save to device" and you're done. Huzzah.
I could be wrong, but if you go into:
Settings->Accounts and Sync-> [the account for your work email]
And uncheck Contacts, I think they'll be gone again. Looks like you tried that. If you did, and they're still there, check the sync settings. You can choose the priority (i.e. keep the contacts from the phone, delete those from the gMail server etc).
When all else fails, delete all of your contacts, uncheck Contacts from the work account and resync properly.

delete contents of inbox

hi all,
lumia 800
can anyone shed any ideas as to why my email inbox empties a day or so after reading, my sent folder is intact just the inbox empties all read mail
voith
I see 45 people have read this query, with no solution so instead I will ask is this normal, does everyones inbox empty by itself after a short period of time.
Try this: go into email settings -> synchronisation settings -> Download email from - then select a longer time.
Cheers
Do you also download your e-mails to your PC or Laptop? Then it is normal for the inbox to show up empty because those messages are no longer available. The sent messages are stored locally on your phone and not in your normal sent mailbox with your e-mail server.
"Do you also download your e-mails to your PC or Laptop" Yes
"Then it is normal for the inbox to show up empty because those messages are no longer available" Depends on how you setup email account, if you use IMAP instead of POP3 then your inbox would be available across al your devices.
Cheers

thanks all for your replies,in the synchro I have it downloading from anytime, though it made no difference, regarding the above quote, I was not downloading my mail on another computer as I wanted all mail to go to my phone and stay there as it was a dedicated addys, I lived with the deletions until I desperately needed a recent received email, and found it had already been deleted, so in the end I had to add the account to my home comp to download the mails so that I could save them, since I have started to download them to my main comp, it has not altered the time taken to delete its always a few days.
oh and I am running pop3
