Lost Contacts etc. during sync

Hey guys,
i am new with smartphones/ppc especialy with the Hermes. i am using it for about 3 weeks and wanted to save my contacts on the pc. so i installed outlook and active sync and it synced automaticly but insted of save all my contacts and calendarentries on the pc, it deleted all on my phone! I think its because the outlook database was empty and it synced just in one direction. is there any possibility to restore the data?
please its very important!
kind regards

On the Mobile device i found a Data called pim.vol, and opened it with windows notepad, there seem to be randomly parts of contacts. is there any possibility to extract them? The Data is cryped or does not use the ASCII Table or something else so i cant figure out all Informations.

Deleting Contacts - Is there a quick way?

In regards to my MSN thread really.....
Is there a quick and easy way to delete a load of contacts? Talking like 300ish. All email contacts taken from my MSN account.... Are they stored in a particular file/folder I can just delete?

Quickest way is probably to do it in Outlook, then when you next synch they'll be removed from your phone.

not got outlook....
oh well, all done now.......

You can delete the pim.vol in the root. Then you should have no contacts.

How to edit/Manage phone contacts from your PC?

hello,
anybody knows of a free program that lets you manage you WM phone contacts and edit them on your PC and then transfer these contacts to your phone?
thank you

Ive heard that you could sync your data to your gmail account? I havent tried it yet but I might try to do it soon because I don't like using Microsoft Outlook. Especially when it costs.

[Q] How Do I Transfer my data after I Flash Android on my HD2?

Hi everyone. I was wondering how would I transfer my contacts, texts and stuff to Android OS after I flash my HD2? I use MyPhone (Which is Microsoft owned) and Tmobile Backup but Backup only works for Contacts, I'd still need to transfer Texts, Documents etc.
Thanks for your help

For contacts and calendar, Try Syncing with Google. (gmail) You should be able to move your documents to the sdcard. I'm still looking for a way to export text data. I hope this helps

[Q] contacts from PC to phone

Hi guys!
I have a .wab file on my PC and I don't know how to put contacts from that .wab file in my SE X2 ... Can someone please help me?
Thanks in advance

the problem is, that windows mobile only syncs contacts with Outlook and with Windows Live.
What you know from Nokia PC and OVI suite, is not applied here. try to import the file into Outlook and than Sync. If not you'll need an app that reads wab! (i didn't manage to find anything useful, for syncing contacts, but there is a post on XDA)

I beleive "SysTools Wab Converter" might be useful...
I can only find demo version and it can only transfer 15 contacts, and I have 300+ contacts If someone accidently find out full version, please send me link in PM

Wab = Windows Address Book, in other words it's an outlook express adderssbook.
Just export your contacts into a csv-file, and import it to example gmail. Then hook up your phone against gmail, and you get your contacts this way to your phone.

How to export contacts ? What are you talking about? I have .wab file but not the mobile phone with those contacts. How to export .wab into .csv? I'm confused.
