I have my computer setup to forward emails, documents, and calendar to my 8125 through Express Mail.
I get the calendar and emails just fine, but how can I look up my documents off of my computer? My friend has the same thing setup on his Treo 650 and can easily get into his computers "my documents" and retrieve any file in there.
I cant seem to figure out how with the 8125.

I have all of my messages and accounts set up in outlook 2003, is there any way for me to transfer them to my Wizard or do I have to set them all up using the wizard itself (painfully slow )?
Activesync only seems to let me sync custom folders that I've created (not Inbox, Sent items etc). Also, is it possible to use one inbox for all accounts in pocket outlook? It gets kind of messy when I have six folder trees.
Ok i did a search could not find what i was looking for.....i just got a 6525 as my old 6700 was getting old....now with my 6700 i used wireless sync and it work good...i could get all my emails, Contacts, and my outlook calendar just fine. and i dont have a exchange server...just my home desktop....not with Cingular's Xpress mail i just get my email......any help would be great...
Hi gnafin. On my Cingular 8525, installing XpressMail gave me two icons in Start->Programs ... Xpress Mail Settings and Xpress Mail Calendar. The installation also added Xpress Mail Calendar as a plugin on my Today screen. In my configuration, the Xpress Mail Calendar syncs to my Outlook Calendar when I attach via ActiveSync at my work computer.
Using Contacts->Menu->Xpress Mail Contacts, you can retrieve selected entries from your Corporate Address Book and add them to your Outlook Contacts.
As this is my first PDA, I have no other experience to compare this with, but the setup works OK for me.
Hope this helps.

Sorry gnafin, but I really don't know. As I have stated, this 8525 is my first PDA experience, so I don't even know what you're referring to by the term "wireless sync".
I simply use Xpress Mail to push my email and calendar from my work account. XM does a fairly good job with this, when my Corporate Server is working at the same time as XpressMail's I already have most of the corporate contacts I need in my Outlook Address Book, but whenever I need another one, it is easy to get using the XM Contacts thing I mentioned in my previous message. All of these happen wirelessly, except for synchronizing the two calendars, which seems to require an AS connection while I'm at my work PC.
Sorry I couldn't be more help than this. I hope somebody else here (who's got a lot more experience than I) can be of assistance.
Best regards, and good luck,

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)
I'm curious if there is anyway to type up my contacts on my PC, and then transfer them over to my HD2, I have over 200 contacts, and I don't want to have to type them ALL onto my phone, as it would be a lot easier to type them on my laptop. Does anyone have any insight?
Get MS Outlook (not Outlook Express or Windows Live Mail!) and sync. Easy
Dude, you are a life saver. Thanks.

this is one reason why i stick to winmo as i have been using it for years and love the way i can easily put all my contacts on the phone simply by the first active sync i do when i get a new phone.

If you have a Gmail account use Google Sync. You can make special folders for contacts you want to sync and those that you don't. Then, on your phone, go to Start>Tools>ActiveSync. If you haven't set any accounts up yet, it should say something like "setup an MS exchange, blah blah blah". If you already have another account set up, use the right softkey (Menu) and press "Configure server". Here it will guide you through the process. Use your gmail address (full address) as your username, then enter your password. For the server, use "m.google.com". Then when you sync, your Gmail contacts will be synced to your phone. What's nice about this is that the changes you make on the contact info cards on your phone are synced with your Google contacts. If your phone breaks, get a new phone, or you need to hard-reset, your contacts will be resynced (you'll have to set it up again)... but at least all your contacts will be there! Save yourself some heartache and use the Google Sync service.
BTW, this uses Microsoft Exchange... if that matters.
The problem with Outlook is the cost. Working for the NHS I got it for a few pounds on the Home User Programme. I guess there is a trial version. There's certainly a beta of Office 2010 available but I haven't tried this with Mobile Device Centre.
