OK, normally the procedure would be copy the files I want to keep and sync it, but I won't be near my sync pc for a bit (just a work PC)
Should I partner my work PC and sync as normal? Will that screw up my contacts with my work's exchange server contacts?
Should I just be patient and wait until I can sync with my own PC instead?
Can I sync with my own PC over GPRS? eg my own PC runs an exchange server.
Anything be note when going from the original English t-mobile MDA Pro rom to the lastest version of the same?

Greetings, newbie here.. Just got my Cingular 8125 last week, and i've been trying to figure out how to used OTA Activesync over GPRS/EDGE with my laptop.. Is there any feasable way do do this?
I usually have a couple programs open on the 8125, Agile msgr, a RSS reader, weather apps, etc.. a lot of stuff that checks over GPRS/EDGE for updates etc.. but everytime i sync via USB with my laptop and Activesync, it hoses my GPRS/EDGE connection because of it having to use my laptop's network connection.
I'd like to sync with the laptop over GPRS/EDGE if possible.. if there's a app I need to purchase or whatever that's fine.. I'm running WinXPPro on the Laptop.. and WM5 on the 8125 of course..
As of 4.0, ActiveSync won't sync OTA. I think the only exception to this is if you're synching with an Exchange server. Only thing I've been able to find that will give me OTA sync is WebIS's Plaxo sync and, right now, that only syncs contacts. Check out their page for WebIS Mobile Sync
The only thing I can think of is installing kerio mail server. This acts as a mailserver and I succesfully synced my windows mobile with it. The only thing is that you need to configure your own mail server and thats not totaly what you are looking for...
Only had my Vario about a week and still learning it, I have connected the wifi fine and connected to my old pc, it synced fine but just got a new PC and what to use this to sync with from now on, it came up that there was a problem syncing as there was already a outlook profile, how do I remove the old PC data and attach it to the new one?
Also is it possible to connect to the PC using wifi rather than theusb cable??

The outlook date is stored in outlook.pst in C:\Documents and Settings\[your username]\Local settings\Application data\Microsoft\Outlook\
Copy outlook.pst from your old to your new PC, it should work! I recommence you a tool called pfbackup (from MS), it makes automaticly a backup copy of this file.
Thanks for the reply, I've managed to delete the old computer in the connection manager and then synced with the new PC, this is my first internet post on the Vario hope it works lol
Hi everyone. New poster here and love this forum. I've switched over from 8 years of PalmOS and Treo to the Wizard and enjoying it tremendously.
My only problem so far that I haven't been able to find an answer to is with Exchange Server sync on the desktop. I have it working flawlessly over the air via GPRS with Direct Push. However, I have an extensive amount of Notes that I constantly use that I need to sync from desktop, so I connect via USB and it hangs forever trying to synchronize Exchange Server from the USB! How do I stop this and have it only syn with Windows PC? I can get everything else fine from GPRS and don't care to sync on the desktop for Exchange.
I'm using ActiveSync 4.2 on XP for a Cingular 8125 with latest updates. Exchange sync through the desktop fails after 10-15 minutes. I just need to bypass that on the desktop and only sync wirelessly for email, contacts, and calendar. I need only task and notes desktop sync. Does anyone know how to do this? My wireless sync isn't using SSL but SMS notifications which is sufficient for me. My apologies if this has already been answered, but my search was not able to uncover an answer.
I am new to synching with Windows Mobile 6 on my T-Mobile Wing, was hoping there was a solution out there for the problem I'm up against. Here is the layout of what I have :
- a T-mobile Wing with WM6 and ActiveSync
- a Windows Vista computer with Microsoft Outlook 2007 and WMDC
- a Microsoft Exchange account for work with OWA
I sync everything on the Wing and Vista/Outlook 2007 setup effortlessly with either USB or Bluetooth, that's not a problem. Currently I sync emails only from the Exchange account using Outlook Web Access through ActiveSync on the Wing. What I would really like to do is to be able to sync the calendar/tasks from my Exchange account to the Wing, but to PREVENT writing my personal appointments/reminders/tasks from Outlook up to my Exchange account. I don't think my company needs to know when I'm mowing the lawn or taking my kids to the dentist....however, I really value having that personal stuff synched up on both the Wing and Vista/Outlook. Is such one-way synching even possible? Is there another program out there besides ActiveSync that can do this? I have seen some descriptions on the web of how to make an older version of ActiveSync perform this way, but the version that I have never seemed to have the right options or tabs available.
So to sum up, the dilemma is, I'd like to sync my Exchange calendar/tasks to my Wing, but not have any calendar/task items from the Wing or the Vista PC make it back to the Exchange server. If more information is needed, I will be happy to provide any details that I can.
Thanks, great forum.
Hi ,
I have an HD2 and use it to sync to outlook at work and at home. I am interested in getting a motorola xoom or other tablet PC. (discount codes claiming 10% reduction at PC world NOT working).
My questions are...
1. if I put android on my HTC HD2 can I sync with outlook still and carry my calander between work and home.
2. If I go for a WiFI only version of the Xoom will I be able to connect via BT/Wifi and use the phone as a portable modem Like I presently do with my laptop. And if so is it easier to do this with android or MW6.5 ?? This would save paying an extra £100 and data plan for the 3g version.
Hope someone can help.

Easy Answer:
1. YES, even better, Android supports multiple exchange-accounts
2. YES, almost all Android Roms support WiFi Tethering in multiple ways
[EDIT]
What exactly do you mean with "sync with outlook"? If your company does have an exchange server (like most i think) and this one is reachable from the web (outlook web access) - YES.
If you`re really just syncing with Outlook you will need an HTC Sense Rom, so HTC Sync is supported (by this way you can sync with Outlook StandAlone).
Exchange syncs mails, calendars and contacts, HTC Sync does the same i think (my company does have an Exchange Server).
Thanks for your answer.
i have outlook for my calander only at work and on home laptop. I sync via usb cabel not server. could i continue this with an android version on my HD2? my mail at work is outlook but i dont think they alow you to sync this via internet due to confidentiality
Yes, you can sync an Android device in many ways with Outlook. Visit www.syncdroid.net to find a large listing of software to perform the task. The have chart that lists, among other things, whether the software syncs with USB, Wi-Fi, or wireless. If you want to use USB, find the ones that sync via USB and you are set!
