Hi,
Using ActiveSyng 4.1 (Build 4841), XP SP2.
XP Firewall settings look fine.
All contacts and appointments synchronized, no problem, but those with notes are not synchronized.
I can create a contact on my wizard, with notes, which is sync'ed with the laptop, but this sync stops whenever I change the notes on my PC...
I had a similar problem today.
I have my mda vario for a day now. last night I first played with it and synchronized it with my outlook (which is stand alone when I am not at work)
Today at work I started up my outlook and it synced with my server at work.
Then I synced my vario and suddenly all my agenda appointments disapeared on my vario.
Only solution was to sync with my laptop again without it being connected to the server at work
Hi,
I have the same problem, i erased qtek's memory, uninstalled office and activesync, delete all repertory and keys in regedit, but it changes nothing : it won't synchronize but with my work computer it is ok. I have put my pst files from house (data file from outlook) at work and it synchonizes too.
I don't understand :
it is not my QTEK 9100 because it synchronize fine at work
it is not outlook, pst file or activesync (4.0 and 4.1, both are tried)
so what is it ???
I am thinking that there is only one solution : format c: :-(
Please if you have an idea, help us !!!

PS : it was ok before, but i don't know what i have done that made that it doesn't work, i have only Kapersky antivirus, no firewall and vnc (to control computer through internet)
Same problem here. Only i was using a Palm E2 and converted everthing to outlook. After synching, everthing but my appointments synched to my wizard. A bit of a catastrophy saving and reimporting the pst file.
Finally someone suggested deleting the profile, then resynching to outlook, providing all data is either on outlook or the wizard, as you have to option to copy everything from either source to the other, and presto seemed to work.
Still having problems with outlook though, after importing either archive or loading a different pst file, i dont seem to have all my info and it seems my calendar is always opening from an archive instead of outlook today.
Will reinstall outlook completely. In any case try recreating the profile.
I have destroyed andrecreate my profile too.
But i changes nothing.
I think that if you have take all data from your wizard, you have certainly lose your note, is it the case ?
I have forgotten to say that only data with note or contact with photo don't synchronize but if you delete all information from outlook and you synchronize your pocket that contains these data, outlook save the contacts, but after, if you add a new contact with note, photo or an appointement with note, activesync doesn't see them. If you change a contact with note/photo that come from the wizard (ie name...) wizard doesn't synchronize it.
The problem is that i don't understand what is the problem source....

What version outlook are you using? did you make sure that notes was checked in the list of programs to synchronise? Also be sure that wizard overwrites the pc data.
Other than that, if you want to try reinstalling outlook. Be sure to save an archive or backup first (I didnt really know how to reload the pst, ie from archive or backup because it shows on outlook as archived folder instead of outlook today! ?????) Thats my next step as well. I'm also going to try to install outlook 2003.
When I speak about notes it is notes contains in other data like note in contact or note in calendar.
The Note section synchrinize... but contact that have a photo or a note, note !
I have destroy all sort of data and it doesn't work, i am sure that it is not link with oulook.
Fixed for me, since I got a new computer. Problems seems to come from the version of ActiveSync. Funny enough, if I first get an error message when syncing, reinstall ActiveSync, then it works, if I do not get this message on first sync, then it does not work...
I think that it could be a good idea that everybody who had the same problem says what running programm is installed on his computer.
For me it is Kaspersky antivirus personna, vnc, nokia toolkit, nero 7, bluetooth driver, vnc.
I have others but i don't think that they could be linked with this problem
Nobody wants to reply ????
Hi Shoopy33,
I took me days to install my desktop properly. Microsoft is cleaning things now with the newest version. What you might want to make sure is that you have Genuine versions of both Windows XP, and Microsoft Outlook. That means that both Windows XP and Outlook need to have SP.
Many things could go wrong if you have a non Genuine version installed in Windows XP. For instance, if you have a Genuine Windows XP but with a non-Genuine Office XP with Outlook, you cannot just desinstall the non-Genuine Office XP, delete all registry files, and install a Genuine Microsoft Outlook version. You'll be stuck!!! It's a nice way from Microsoft to say FU.
Simply put, you'll need to reformat your hard-drive, reinstall everything fresh with Genuine Microsoft softwares that Microsoft will check online, and clone your HD for backup when you have a chance so that you don't have to reinstall everything again from A to Z. That'll take you time, of course.
Microsoft will not check which version of Microsft Outlook you have online, but the ActiveSync from Microsoft will check which version you have offline.
I had the same problems with my MDA Vario.
My solution:
1. export all contacts to separate vcard files.
2. in outlook click Help -> detect and repair
3. scanned my outlook pst file with c:\Program Files\Common Files\System\Mapi\1033\scanpst.exe
4. deleted all notes from my vcards
5. reinserted my vcards in my contacts in Outlook.
(6. i added my contacts notes as Notes in outlook)
now all synchronisation goes well: appointments, notes and contacts
Happens after new firmware
I have some contacts and appointments on my MDA Pro. They also synched well (MDA Pro ->PC). However, after I put the new T-Mobile firmware on my MDA Pro, "normal" contacts synchronize just fine, but those with photos or contacts do not. I suspect a bug in ActiveSync, but there is also nothing in the MS Knowledgebase about that :-/
I had this problem, and my solution was to erase pocket and format computer, but now, there is no problem.
I know that there is certainly a better solution, but I have not !
I can only say that it is a problem from the computer, because at work, it had ever well synchronised...
M.B.
How to remove???
im guessing you asking how to get them from ur 750 to the X1.
Use a program called MyPhoneExplorer, copy all contacts from phone memory, they will save as VCard files. Take them from this program to a windows folder on your desktop and then transfer via ActiveSync etc etc..
Thats how i did it with mine and it worked fine
No.
I ever try to send it via BlueTooth - x1 says something about "data may be damaged"...
Outlook 2007 can read them, but my contacts with utf-8 and cyrillic unicode - but outlook use wrong character table...
For some reason you cant bluetooth contacts over.
This way worked for me, im out of ideas, anyone else got a clue??
would dashwire work?
Don't know if it's supports cyrillic

I tryed to sing in - only support windows mobie based phones.
what's about k750 ?
Doesn't work for me too, same error about corrupted or missing data.
I tried both bluetooth transfer of the complete contacts from my K800i to x1 and exporting with MyPhoneExplorer to a single vcf file and importing it to x1.
while sending a single contact with bluetooth all works ok.
Good news : )
Info.
Data in vCard must be in Quoted-Printable Encoding Format,
something about "Name;Quoted-Printable:=08=0A=0B=6E=7F"
Some models (as k750) make vCards with UTF-8 Encoding Format,
something about "Name;UTF-8:df34wedf6w54aQWERQ"
Solve.
I used Windows XP standart address book to import UTF-8 contacts (from SE),
and that address book can export in Quoted Printable Format.
But it can export only one by one contacts, so i use Ghost Automizer to record keyboard pressing, and it program helped me to export all 356 contacts : )
Then that contacts mau be one by one imported in outlook 2007, or "clicked" in xperia.
I sent them one by one via BT b/c X1 wouldn't accept complete phone book.
I tried by installing Outlook and syncing my k800 with it through MyPhoneExplorer, then syncing back to X1, it worked partially: all phone numbers are missing the + at the beginning (i save all with +39 something, and now i have them all without)
Using only Address Book will help you to keep all "+".
All of my 365 contacts saves its "+" : )
Outlook
Step 1: Use my phone explorer and sync your SE 750 contacts with the same. Then in My Phone explorer there is an option to sync the same to Outlook. Do the same. Now your contacts are in oulook.
Step II: Remove SE K 750. Connect X1 and set up Activesync (Win XP) or WMDC6.1 (Win Vista).
Sync settings select contacts to sync and all outlook contacts get transfeered to your phone.
Alternative II
In my phone Explorer export all contacts as vcards if oulook sync doen't work (although no reason for it to misbehave). Drag and drop all vcards to Outlook. it works.
Repeat step II as above.
Take Care

I used this method, but as said before, contacts were transfered without the initial +
do not use outlook.
copy vcards on x1 and run their from x1
it is the only safe way
I have a problem with active sync because it doesn't speak to outlook express, only Outlook.
I had full Outlook on my laptop but had to dismantle it the other night and my other machines only have express installed. As I've also had to hard reset the phone it means I currently have no contacts on it and can't get them on from express because activesync is sh1t and doesn't support OE. Thanks Bill!
Is there a FREE app I can use to get my contacts from Outlook Express onto the phone easily? I didn't get a disc with my phone so no copy of Outlook I can install.
I don't want all my received emails or folders - just the contacts. Thanks!
Alternatively, is there any way I can legally download Outlook given that I have a PPC with a legit WinMo installation?
Aside from all that - I don't really want to have to use the full version of Outlook. I know it does more and I use it at work but why should I be forced to use it to sync? It's BS!!!
Download Jeyo Mobile Companion trial from http://www.jeyo.com/companion.asp to import OE contacts and sync with phone.
I have a similar problem, exporting from Outlook 2007
Trying to sort my contacts out and the formatting is terrible. i copied them across from an old SE w800i and had to do it via the sim card as bluetooth wouldn't work.
This means that home numbers and mobile numbers are listed seperately and many names are cut short.
A further problem is that the phone is showing both sim and memory contacts, i.e. duplicates.
I want to know if there is any way i can format all the contacts on my PC then copy them back to the phone, after having deleted all contacts on phone + sim.
Thanks
In on XP with Outlook 2007. My phone is running the standard rom.
Dear All,
Previously I am using n70. when I transfer my sim contacts to touch hd, it will show duplicate name for those with more than 1 contact number in it. Now even worse is when I login to MSN, i have all the contact in it as well.. This caused a mess in my directory.
I was told that outlook can help but I am too noob, I couldnt find the directory file from the hp to be import to outlook.
Any other suggestion or proper guide on this?
thanks in advance.
Euuuh... Outlook is part of M$ Office suite, and is NOT freeware!
AFAIK, SIM can hold only one number/info per entry, so no wonder you have multiple entries per contact.
Normally you would sync your n70 with Outlook, then sort/integrate info about contact in one entry, and then sync with HD.
On HD you will want to store data in phone memory, NOT in SIM...
You could try the same with Outlook Express (which IS freeware)
Hi Guys,
I'm new to xda-dev and I'll get my nexus one tomorrow or on monday (DHL screwed up delivery yet again here in London).
The first most important thing for me is to import my 500+ contacts from my Nokia N97 to the nexus and I have no clue how to do this since it's a different OS.
Can someone please guide me in details asap??
I heard about the using mail for exchange sync (steps needed) and this thing called "sprite migrate" (google it as I'm barred from posting links for now) which has free apps for Nokia (symbian) n Nexus (android) to do it.
Has anyone ever used any of these?? Also I have my Nokia contacts etc. backed up on the latest version of Ovi suite if that can be used as well.
Thanks a lot and please reply.
PS: I did a search and did not find a relevant thread answering this so please make this exhaustive.
I'd focus on getting your n97 contacts into Outlook Express/Windows mail/Etc first. Most contact formats can be imported into Gmail (and thus automatically synced to your N1)
But the n97->something on windows step is pretty nokia specific so I can't help you there.
I did the same thing for my gf and her N85. First, go into your Nokia's settings and copy all contacts to your SIM card. Then when you put your SIM card into your N1, you can import all the contacts off the SIM. Voila.
Thanks guys, my phone just arrived n i'll try the simple sim copy first (how do we forget such basic things!)...if not then the sprite migrate app sounds totally brilliant after reading the manual...copies bookmarks, texts, music, pics etc too!!
i had over 600 contacts and couldnt copy it to SIM. Instead i installed mail exchange on my n97 and synced with google contacts. Then it automatically synced with my Nexus one. Good luck.
Download the nokia pc suite. Install. It will read your contacts when you connect the nokia to the pc. From the suite export as csv file.
Go to gmail, create a dummy entry with the fileds you will need. Export from gmail contacts as csv.
Then open nokia csv file in excel and also gmail csv in excel.
Copy paste nokia csv contacts to the right columns in the gmail csv file.
when done, save gmail csv file and import back to gmail. Then synch contacts form the nexus. They will magically appear on the phone.
My contacts where 548. Everything worked smooth.
If something appears wrong, then check again/correct gmailcsv file on the pc and to the same procedure again. delete contacts from gmail beforehand.
You could install MailForExchange and sync your contacts directly to Google, as per here: http://www.google.com/support/mobile/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=147951
I used that to migrate from N95 to N1
Thing you're SOL with the messages though, I'm afraid.

You shouldn't need to create a dummy entry. I managed to get contacts off a nokia 5800, by simply exporting the csv from pc suite and uploading it direct through gmail.
hey i am using ovi suite with my nokia phone and i have all my contacts synced there and i tried syncing them with outlook then exporting csv and importing it into gmail. but there are some faults with this. some fields are not created in outlook (like nickname) and when i have more than one number assigned to a contact sometimes the second number or the third is not added to outlook. how can i exactly export my contacts as they are on my ovi suite ?
Screw OVI. Like I said above, use MailForExchange.
Ok, a lot of people immediately advocate Google Sync. Here's the problem and it's a KNOWN ISSUE with S60. Google Sync using MfE will NOT copy the different phone #s of the same contact. This was a problem for me. Sure only like 10-20 contacts of mine had multiple #s listed under their name, but I didn't want to go through line by line and fix it.
So you can:
1) Use Outlook to deal with it which should do it flawlessly
2) Use SIM (but I highly recommend you to look elsewhere and not use this)
3) I settled and instead of bothering with Outlook and installing PC Suite and crap, I decided to use Mac OSX. I have heard friends telling me how they plug in random dumbphones into their Mac and it does it all. Yeah. It did. My N82 synced FLAWLESSLY with iSync which comes built in. This is the one time I'm going to act like a retarded Mac user and scream "OMG my mac does everything." Somehow it just handles pulling contacts off FLAWLESSLY. It got the multiple #s for my contacts. I synced it onto my Moto Milestone without any trouble. Yay!
As for your SMS and maybe other info, try this:
http://www.spritesoftware.com/ - Look for Sprite Migrate software. It's free.
I tried it on my N82 but it failed. I submitted an error log, and it seems someone else had some issues with FP1 devices, and the manufacturer is aware. However you're on S60v5 so you might have better luck. People don't care about FP1 devices anymore so I think I'm SOL. Give it a try. Trust me I've looked into this issue a lot and I've crossposted on 20 forums about this (ok more like 2-3).
GoogleSync via MfE does copy all numbers for each contact, lots of mine have multiple numbers and all made it to GoogleContacts.
Not only that, it also copied the contacts pictures, their birthdays, etc.
SPRITE MIGRATE sounds ace!

I just did the simple copy to sim and then to N1 method and then sorted duplicates out on google contacts site.
But I read about "sprite migrate" which is free and seems to transfer all messages/contacts nicely. Apps available on ovi store and android market to get u going as their instructions state. Let us know.
Easiest way ever
It's pretty simple:
1) get rid of Nokia Ovi Suite
2) Go to Nokia website and downloads Nokia Pc Suite ( i got version 7.1.51)
3) Follow on screen intructions for app install & phone connection
4) With the phone connected, click on the "contacts" icon (blue phone book). It will open Nokia Communicator, and a list with all your contacs
5) Select all of them( click on the first one, then go for CTRL + A)
6) Go to: File > Export
7) Choose a file name and location.
8) Go into: Gmail > Contacts > More actions > Import
9) Pick the csv file you just created, and have a nice and easy import
Congratulations on
Being well over a year too late
Coming up with a more long-winded solution than the one already posted
Lol @ above post.
