PIM.VOL too big - use SD card storage? - JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General

Does anyone know of a PIM managment software which will store the PIM info. (i.e. Contacts...) on the SD card, or of a way to get WM50 to store and use pim.vol in the SD card (as opposed as the device itself)?

anyone had any joy with this?

My Documents on Storage Card

I need to default the device and AS to the My Documents folder I create on the storage card. The biggest reason is that several of my clients use the recorder which wants to save to the device rather than the SD....
Thanks in advance!

Storage Card/Outlook problems

I have recently bought an HTC P3600 and all was going well until I configured Outlook to store attachments on my storage card. Very shortly afterwards, 3/4 of the contents of my storage card were gone and my HTC was "seeing" 2 storage cards (the 1st only having a mail attachment directory and the second having both the mail attachment directory and what was left of my card contents). Phoning HTC directly, they admitted that a few people had contacted them with similar problems (essentially Outlook screwing around with the files on a storage card). HEEELLLLP!!
- Ideally, this wouldn't have been a problem if Active sync did storage cards (another discussion perhaps). Is there a utility (pref. freeware) that will automatiicaly backup/sync storatge cards as soon as the PC sees them?
- I guess it might be that the files are still on the card but that the pointer has been lost; is there a utility (again pref freeware) that could have a go at trying to recover these files?
- Anyone else seen this problem or know of a solution?
Thanks,

r u using WM5Storage?
Re: Storage Card problem
r u using WM5Storage?

I'm not sure what WM5 storage is. I am using a Transcend 2GB card.
it's a program that allows the windows mobile to connect to a pc as if it were a usb hard drive, no need for active sync. It can cause the 2 storage card issue if u config messaging to save attachments to the storgae card.
Just wondered if it was this that was causing ur issues.

SKtools renames Storage Card?

I wanted to store my messages on my Storage Card. So to do this i used SKtools. So far so good. After a soft reset no programs are working anymore.
After some research I found out that my messages indeed were stored @ Storage Card\my messages ...BUT the REAL Storage Card was renamed to Storage Card2. That was the reason programs are no longer working.
I really dont now why SKtools should create a new folder with teh same name. Anyone knows this problem?
It's not SKTools renaming your card, it's your HD2.
I posted a few things about this early on and got no interest or response - you are the first person other than me who has tried this (apparently!).
In the absense of a more definitive answer, I am assuming that the storage card is slow to mount on the HD2, so the system can't find it when initialising mail and so creates it's own 'Storage Card' folder. When the real card is mounted it is therefore named 'Storage Card2'.
As for what to do about it... Well, there is talk dating back a couple of years about delaying the loading of mail applications to give the card a chance to mount, but that dates back to WM5 and WM6 and relates to disabling the mail plugin on the Today Screen. With that in mind I tried checking the Startup Folder and removed the link to poutlook that was in there, but it made no difference.
It may just be another example of where HTC in trying to improve the interface have badly impacted what was a crucial piece of functiuonality for me - the ability to move my mail to the Storage Card. Given the issues being reported with storage space on the device, this is a major pain!
You can at least use the system software to send any attachments to the Storage Card - that works without issue.

Contacts on Storage Card?

I have looked everywhere. Is it possible to use my storage card for my contacts instead of my HD2`s memory? That would be perfect if possible.
