hi all,

maby there is a plug-in or so for active sync to sync sms, just like the email sync function

Hi, I use the Jeyo Mobile Extender since a year
http://www.jeyo.com/
Works like a charme
Pocket Controller is another option, lets you control you phone etc. from your PC, a bit like doing a remote desktop connection. You can type and send texts, initiate calls etc. in fact just about anything you would normally do with the phone in your hand

Is it now possible to synchronise subfolders of your SMS account? The versions I tested did not offer this, which is ridiculous.

Hi
is it possible to view the sms inbox and outbox of my XDA2 on my local pc via activesync.
Thanks for any advice
Pocket Controller
Hi
Try SOTI's Pocket Controller - I use it even though I suspect (NOTE: Not confirmed) that the software causes some activesync issues.
The other option is Jeyo's Mobile Extender which extends the Pocket PC's SMS inbox to Outlook on your PC.
Cheers

When you are talking about Jeyo... can someone tell me if it is possible to get the SMS messages back to the device after a hard reset?
thanks
Thanks Sands
While on this subject has anyone got any good links for developing software which links to the xda
SMS Folders on Desktop
I use AIM Productions' SMS Cool! which works fairly well but you can't restore the folders to the phone. It also gets a bit slow when you have a large number of messages in your inbox and sent folder.
i use Jeyo Mobile Companion and it's very good prog.... you can backup and restore your sms very easy and fast.........
Is it possible to type / send / receive SMS message on my PC screen whilst my XDA2 is synchronised and in its docking station?
SMSing using your PC keyboard and Monitor
While Synced you can use the following programs to send SMS using the PC.
1) Jeyo Mobile Extender (www.jeyo.com) highly recommended. It is cheap works flawlessly and allows your SMSes to be stored in the Outlook folders. Just manage your SMSes the exact same way you would your emails.
2) Pocket Controller Professional (download trial from Pocketgear.com)
Concept is similar to the original PPC-Remote from MS, but a gazillion times better
You get to control the PPC remotely from your desktop. Better yet if you have bluetooth on your PC.
PERFECT for geeking around with your PPC sans stylus.
And for Aesthetics, it has skins of most PPCs that you can download and the hard buttons work!
SMS via PC
I use SMS Cool! from Aimproductions which works well for me. Imports all your current SMSes, inbox, sent and deleted items but texts you send from SMS Cool! don't appear in your sent folder on the PDA, unfortunately.

Thanks all
With the Universal plugged into my PC most of the day it would be nice to be able to bash out SMS messages on the PC and send them thru the Universal. Is there an app somewhere that allows you to do that?
Thanks

Yes, Jeyo mobile extender, it integrates with outlook as another account. www.jeyo.com
There is also an ms outlook addin that will allow sending sms via a phone sync'd to outlook. See ms downloads.
Thanks guys.

Just tried the MS OUtlook addin - http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...B4-986E-4AFB-AB21-3AF2BE63508B&displaylang=en
Doesn't see the phone. Looks like you have to set it up as a modem.

On my old phone (Nokia) i could sync my contacts into Windows address book on my laptop. Now I've got the Vario2 and vista on my laptop the sync will only let me download my contacts into microsoft outlook- which I don't have and do not want to pay loads more money. How do i back my contacts up or get outlook free
I recently found a program called "PIM Backup". It allows you to back the data up to a file which you can then copy off.
Try looking here or off a similar thread for the download link -

Hi.
Have a similar problem
Using Outlook Express for Email and instead of MS Office / Outlook we use Open Office [its free ]
Found a link to connect O.E. YET to try it, but it is ...
http://www.reunion.com/site-root/download_reunionforoutlook.jsp
Also if you know of a calendar plugin for O.E., please post it
i use Jeyo Mobile Companion, brilliant for backing up contacts, sending SMS via pc.
Its different to some others in the fact that you compile the sms as you would an email but it sends it via the phone, so no internet connection needed.
Its brill at work, save "un-cradling" then reply/send sms then cradle, its all done with a swift alt-tab. heh
Alternative to ActiveSync
I haven't (yet) tried it but there is a project called FinchSync (http://www.finchsync.com) which claims: "FinchSync is a tool for synchronizing contacts, appointments and tasks from Mozilla email and calendar products with a Pocket PC or SmartPhone."
If anyone has any hands on experience with this program I for one would be interested to hear about it...?
you could set up a mail2web account which is push email and has a outlook style web based interface allowing you to sync everything contacts,calendar and tasks Did i mention its FREE. www.mail2web.com

You're using Vista? The WMDC will let you Sync your phone with your Vista Contacts - no problem - infact you should now also be able to Sync your mail with Windows Mail and if memory serves your calendar with Windows calander - all things that with XP you had to have Outlook to do!
EDIT
Sorry - seem to have spoken to soon. The beta version of WMDC allowed for Syncing with those programs - I always use Outlook so I haven't even really looked at those settings since - it appears that it was something they supported in the Beta and dropped from the final edition which is quite unfortunate! (probably just trying to sell more copies of outlook). A free work around might be to use Microsoft Live Mail e-mail client (Not Windows Mail) and then install the windows live messenger and set it up to sync your contact details with Live Messenger and then the Live Mail client should then have a synced version of your contacts - just another idea - sorry bout that!
Hello everybody,
After i used my Activesync to synchronize from phone device to desktop, i lost my reminders from my phone but i can still find them on my desktop microsoft outlook under calendar, is it possible to copy a single reminder back to my phone and how?
Thank you very much for our help.
Have you configured the activesync to use Outlook?
What outlook are you working with?
Once you configure activesync or the Windows Mobile Device Center to work with Outlook, you go to Outlook, you can make a reminder under "tasks" or "calendar" you only have to set an alarm(date and time) for that event.
very simple.
Sorry for the grammar.
Also if you use a reminder daily, weekly or so, you can configure that, but you must set the periodicity of the event.
I am using Microsoft outlook to synchronize with my mobile, but i need to copy one of those reminders that i have on MS Outlook back to my phone calendar how to do that ?
Thank you for your answer.
i would suggest sending via bluetooth, that way you can select an appointment and then click file, send via bluetooth. otherwise, i am not sure... good luck
