I went from xplodes to Build 20000.1.0.0.PV.HAT ROM to see if my calender would sync properly.
I am on XP, running outlook 2007 and using activesync 4.5. I have read the other posts and for some reason some calender items (and emails) ae not syncing ??????
?????this is one issue that is still irritating me....help!
Just to check, have you asked activesync to sync the calender?

yes, of course...
In another post they mentioned syncing adding each item one at a time eg add the inbox, then sync, then add files then sync, etc,, add calender then sync.
This method didn't work ????
Have you tried installing activesync on another computer? This would be a good idea if you have access to one. If you can't do that, it might be a problem with your install. I would suggest seeing if you could back everything up to an SD card, which should be possible through this: http://www.freewareppc.com/database/pimbackup.shtml
Then reinstall your ROM and try again.
Hi all,
A quick question.
I just started syncing mail with my wm6 device.
Problem is i have rules forwarding mail to my pst. These mail messages do not get forwarded to my device, so i miss out on them until i come back to my pc with outlook.
I tried to move all the folders under inbox and it will sync mail but you dont get any notifications.
Is there an app that i dont know about? Has anyone doing anything differently or can you suggest something.
thanks in advance.
if all your mail arrives to both your desktop and your ppc you can mark an option to keep the mail on the server and delete them from the server only when they reach your PPC.. unless i missed your point..
I'm not sure if I understood correctly, but right at the moment I'm battling the issue of POutlook not being able to sync 'big' Outlook folders other than Inbox (so, no Sent Items, no custom folders, no Junk Mail ).
This is an inherent limitation (and a liability) of ActiveSync. You may have heard a few choice words on its subject... and believe me, they are all true. AS is just the barest bones, nothing but.
If you DO look for syncing Outlook folders other than just the Inbox, you'll have to shell out quite a few bucks. A moment ago I've finished testing Chapura's Pocket Mirror Professional, a piece of soft that acts a bit like an add-on (or possibly a gateway) to AS. Looks promising, works as advertised, and costs 50 USD. Sigh.
If you want to take a gander, HERE it is.
Best of luck.
To add a bit more info .. basically .. in outlook i have a personal folder (PST) and under that ill have employee1 .. employee2 etc ... so when i recieve a message from them the outlook rule moves it into the correct dub folder.
Now if a rule moves the message to the correct sub folder it doesnt send it as well to my HTC.
anything that doesnt have a rule .. ie just stays in my inbox .. will get forwarded on to my HTC.
So im looking for a way for it all to come to my HTC WM6 inbox.

I use an Exchange 2003 server at work and outlook 2007 on my laptop and WM6 on my PDA and they all sync just fine. If you use Exchange, here is what I did:
All rules created on my laptop (Outlook 2007) are server side. You have the option of making rules either client side or server if you did not know.
I use Emoze ( www.emoze.com ) to sync everything up since for some reason I can not get activesync to work properly (certificate problem).
Check it out, it is free and it works very well.
I have 18 sub-folders that sync perfectly!
-asb
you can get them to sync but no notification
to get the emails to the phone just go to outlook on the phone and go to tools then manage folders and there you can check which folder you would like to sync to the phone
but the phone will not notify you when you get a new msg in anything other then the indox folder
still cant figure that one out
I had problems with syncing my googlemail account with my HD2, and couldn't get old messages to sync. I've now fixed this thanks to advice received on here, at least for my inbox. It still won't sync sent mail, or other mail folders, even though I've checked them in the box to sync in "mail menu>tools>manage folders"
Can anyone help with this issue?
I'm confused. If you use the IMAP protocol then your email folders get synced anyway. That's how mine works (not bothered with push-mail as I don't need it).
Can you explain your problem better please?
WB
For me, Gmail sync worked nicely for inbox but not for sent messages. After working a lot on the problem, I found that you have to specify folders (meaning sent mail folder) also on Activesync on your PC with the HD2 connected. At least syncing sent mails then worked for me. So, check out the active sync desktop sync settings also.

My inbox syncs but no the sent message folder doesn't, nor do other folders from my gmail account.
Yes you are right re Gmail. I am rooting around for a solution at the moment. Will let you know if I find one.
Have got a gut feel that youmight only be able to do the full folder set through outlook. I'm searching now.

Had a look at active sync, and there's no setting for Gmail. There is one for Email, but this does not affect Gmail. Any other ideas?
Hi, well I am now a bit unsure about my suggestion to fix it via Active sync on the PC. I just now had to reinstall gmail (after hard reset for other reasons), and initially I did not get any mails in the sent folder. However, I then unchecked the sync mark for "sent mails" both on the HD2 and PC. Then rechecked them. Still did not work. Then I sent an email, and voila first this email got into the sent folder, and after some seconds all the rest of the sent mails on my gmail account appeared.
So, end result is that after changing back and forth whether to sync the sent mail folder, and sending emails, I got it to work. Not a very clear help, sorry, but I am sure you will get it in order in the end
Snerkler,
I have been hunting around and experimenting all day. Its not good news.
Look here..http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Google+Mobile/thread?tid=0263a42300d6bc90&hl=en
I can't get any other folder to sync bar the inbox, even though I have now changed the way I do this on my device to push mail via google sync.
I think the only way, which I did not test, is to use Outlook on a PC as your mail client accessing Google mail using the IMAP4 protocol so your messages remain synced at all times, then sync your phone to your laptop and get all your folders that way.
I have not tested that out as I don't have the time. It may work or it may be complete cobblers.
If anybody else can throw any positive light on this then please do.

Noticed something very strange with Gmail. I've just logged onto my Gmail account and I now have 2 sent mail folders since using my HD2. One has all mail sent from my laptop, and one the mail sent from the HD2.
Does anyone know why this is and how to merge the 2?

I just looked at the link you posted about gmail, and it appears it's someting to do with gmail's servers or something. What I don't understand is why it worked fine on my iphone, but not my HD2. Perhaps someone can explain? (May I just remind folk I'm not that clued up on all the tech stuff)
Also, I have outlook on my computer linked to my googlemail account, and am trying to figure out how to set outlook on my phone to sync with it, but I sure as hell can't figure it out. I've searched "outlook" but can't find the answer. Does it only sync when connected to the computer? if so this means I wouldn't be able to access my mail whilsst out and about so no use to me

Using the link posted above I've used this method
"The only other workaround I can think of is to set-up a filter on the web-side of gmail that filters any items you have sent into the new 'Sent Items' folder, which was created when the mobile sync took place. This way, at least your sent mail will show up under 'Sent Items' on the phone. Again, not optimal, but is another option. The major downside to this option is if you use Outlook, you will actually see 2 send item messages, the original and the one that is filtered"
At least I can now see all sent email, although I cannot retrieve old sent email, ie those sent prior to setting up a filter. But from now on at least it should be ok, fingers crossed. I've not managed to sync outlook to the phone as it's on my personal computer, and as I understand it I need to be linked to an exchange server (whatever that is) to be able to sync
Hello again,
Take a look at this.....http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5065742&postcount=7
Works for me at the moment but still testing. Note that the number of items synced/downloaded seems to be determined by the global setting you set of how many days worth of emails you want downloading and what size.
I would advice care in syncing too many folders if you use the method above as:
a) it may take ages to do and
b) rapidly kill your battery.
I have simply gone for Inbox & Sent, which will do me for now while I am on the move.

Well.. I want my Touch2 to have my hotmail synced with it. Whenever i try to they just bring me to opera and ask to use www.mobile.live.com
I downloaded Outlook 2007 and sync my hotmail with outlook then i bring in a usb and use ActiveSync and once ive synced it. I look at my outlook section of the text and i see nothing..
Please teach me how to make it sync .. i want to have the 2unread messages thing on my email part of my TouchFlo.. it feels so good to know i've got emails
Please help me. Thanks
I've been trying and trying for past few hours
I tried this
http://www.htc.com/www/howto.aspx?p_id=291&id=43&page=2
and it does not seem to work..
Please please do help me out here.
Thanks in advance.
If you want your Hotmail mails in your WinMo to be synced with Outlook -
1. Make sure that Email check box is checked i.e. when you are syncing - Email is shown in the list of items to be synced.
2. In outlook, you will find two folders, Personal Folder and Hotmail. The Hotmail folder is NOT synced with Activesync. Simple drag all mails in the inbox from Hotmail Folder to Inbox of Personal folder. That should work.
Unless you have a GPRS connection the link you have described will not work.
Hope it helps

Load up the messenger application on your device, it should ask you to log in and if you want to sync your email...
But in all honestly, you're better off setting up a gmail account and using activesync on your device - it will give live mail, and sync contacts and calendar all the time automatically.
I've made a Gmail account. And i've synced my Hotmail with Gmail. It will take a few hours or days. Then i synced my Microsoft outlook 2007 on my laptop with Gmail. Connected the USB and successs!! I synced my Gmail with my phone.
But i dont understand why i cant send out or receive any email? I'm using my WiFi. Is it possible to Send/Receive while using WiFi instead of GPRS Internet cause thats very expensive ^^
But anyways, thanks it works. If only i could send/receive mails now.. Hopefully not by GPRS.

Depends how you've set up gmail...
you need to set up gmail as an exchange server, with the address m.google.com, and sync mail, contacts and calendar only. Then you get true push email, you don't need to conenct activesync to your pc at all, should all work over wifi.
What do you mean? How do i check that settings?

Go into activesync, then congigure server. Try and delete the server source you have, then create a new one.
Username iis your full gmail address, server is m.google.com, leave all security settings ticked.
hi, i had the same problem, i resolved it this way:
when you want to configure your hotmail account like any other email in your mobile,
i think the problem is that the Touch 2 (or WM6.5) has some mail-server account settings pre-configured, and the hotmail one is wrong. i managed to use hotmail both as IMAP and POP3 by just entering a wrong e-mail address (like [email protected]), then entering the right serer settings for pop3 or imap (found in hotmail's help by searching pop3 or imap), and finally, after finishing the configuration, just edited the e-mail settings and altered the email address with the right one (@hotmail.com).
now it's working perfectly, just like gmail or any other mail service.
hope this helps.
Due to having multile contacts onmy phone i decided to tidy it up up bit, i deleted them all of my phone and then tidyed up my pc outlook 2010 contacts also, i then thought it would be a simple case of using active sync to put all my pc outlook contacts/info onto my phone, but it only seems to have done a few, what can i do to resolve this? or have i screwed up somewhere, please help, cheers

Try to uninstall activesync 4.5 from your PC.
Tnan reinstall it. - This will create a new sync account and will re sync all items
as nothing was existed.
While establishing the new sync account, in the opened window of active sync
on your pc, define it to: "replace items on my mobile".
Do not define it as: "leave items on my mobile unit."
I hope that will help u.
Good luck
