Because or requirements at my job, we don't use Outlook. We use SyncML to sync contacts and calendar events with our internal server. Really nice being able to sync without hooking ot a computer and anyplace you have GPRS / WiFi access.
Here's a post where I put some info and links about it:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1159992&postcount=4

i need an exactly same like palm desktop to sync my contact and calender when sync with usb cable

zzzzzzzzzzzz

any 1 have third party software that can sync contact to desktop to view and edit??
i have try uninstall outlook 2003 and activesync 4.5 many time, and the result remain the same

I have had the ActiveSync problem since 10/2006 and have not found a resolution yet. I have posted on this forum, tried all suggestions and tried everything except a Hard Reset. I still cannot get my Desktop or Laptop to recognize my MDA via ActiveSync even though my Desktop and Laptop recognize my MDA. I have asked for 3rd party software to update my Outlook address book and calendar and have not found anything. I have even asked if there is software to update/change the MDA PIM.VOL file via a desktop or laptop. Still no luck. I have researched this out and checked all possible sites. NO LUCK. I still have not given up. I continue to look daily for a solution other than a Hard Reset.
So, you are not alone. There are many of us out there. ActiveSync is a very poor application. Maybe someday we will find something to use instead of AS. The only think that is missing in the AS is the last 'S'.

Hey friends,
I dont know if this reply is useful for you. I am so new to this forum. I am using a Motorola Mpx220, but gonna get my Cingular 8125 within a couple of days. Anyways, when I was syncing my Mpx, I had the same problem. The solution I found out was(after a long research), while the phone is still connected to the computer, go to Start -> Accessories -> Modem link. In that "USB" connection, make it active and then deactivate. As soon as you do this your active sync will detect the phone and it will sync smoothly.
I have no idea why is it happening like this nor I dont know if it works with MDA coz my Mpx220 is running on WM 2003 SE. I can only check WM 5 after I get my 8125. If this reply help you guys in anyways, please let me know.
Thanks mates.....

So there is no third party "phone manager" like for example Oxygen Phone Manager for Symbian phones ?

Contacts backup without outlook
Try " Jeyo Mobile Companion" . Google for it. It can save the contacts + call log as well as SMS on your comp. You can restore/ update the it any time It doesnt sync though. Just use it for back up purposes. Very hand. You still need to connect that phone to the comp. and AS to recognize your device.
Trust this helps

I assume that I can backup my PIM.VOL file on my 2Gb Storage Card. I have not had to reinstall the PIM.VOL file so I don't know if it really will work. However, I still would like to find an application that will allow me to update/change my Contacts and Calendar without using ActiveSync. Bottom line, why can't we find something that can do this without using AS since we are having problems on using AS? I have used Palms since day 1 and other things without as much problems as AS.

asctony,
AFAIK, you still need AS to connect the PPC to any PC ( I cud be wrong). What you can do is to set AS not to sync your contacts and others and use another 3p software to update / modify contatcts. The prog - Jeyo mobile companion does just that + back up your SMS too. Which is very crucial, in many cases as they cannot be backed up through the regular way.

Activesync 4.5

I see a growing trend where a lot of people are having trouble syncing their phones with MS activesync 4.5. Is there a solution to this problem?
Does activesync 4.5 only work with WM6 and not WM5? I just reloaded all software on my puter an d put 4.5 on in readiness for loading WM6 on my phone but now it wont recognise my phone......
thanks
Scott

I am using Activesync 4.5 and no problem at all.

Scott, what version of WM6 you are using? I had that (sync) problem with the first version of Mun_Rus WM6 (due to OneNote issue in the PPC registry file). After using Mun_Rus second version of WM6, it's sync perfectly everytime.

ok, got it working but now it says
"cannot sync with the outlook profile you are using, because a different profile was previously set up or the profile is password-protected. Please open outlook using the appropriate profile.
Support code:8503001f"
Now i only have one single profile on outlook but have changed a few of the options but nothing to do with profile etc. Activesync 4.5 says it has synced with outlook (no attention req'd messages), but there is no extra stuff in outlook- mostly the tasks and calender i am after.....
What am i doing wrong and how do i fix it?

Running Dopod WM5 (waiting for official dopod WM6 rom so copy extended rom from here to a cooked rom).

Running XP, Office 2007 (Outlook 07), Active sync v4.5.0 build 5096
Thanks for your help...

God, dammit, yeah, after three month trying to solve this I finally found a solution. If you set your @live.com or other Outlook Connector created data-file as default, then Exit Outlook, disconnect your PPC (WM6/WM5 device). In WMDC or ActiveSync ( I made it through WMDC on Win Vista ) end your partnership. Then connect your device and set up new one. Add whatever you want to sync with outlook and you are done. It works flawlessly.

Thank you ! Thank you ! Thank you !

Sync Issue

Hi there,
I am using a Blue Angel with WinMobile6, ROM 6.01.03.HBB and Microsoft ActiveSync 4.5.
The Software won't sync the outlook notes. I cannot check the box for notes in the setup neither on the device nor on the PC. Notes are in the list for sync options, but they are greyed out.
Does anyone have any ideas about this?
Thanks and Best Regards,
Thalon

I might be wrong, but look into this. If you don't have a valid license of MS Office installed on your PC or you don't have the WM CD that came with the phone, You might not be able to sync notes... and I believe you shouldn't be able to sync contacts either. Do a search on XDA for Sync problems. Good Luck

also you may try to contact the creator of the rom for issues

are you using outlook 2003 or 2007?

Please Help
Im haveing Sync Issues
TaskFacade giving me Problems
How can i Uninstall this program
by what name is it in the Remove me List ?
or
Is this my imagination ?
then what could be my Sync Issue
I have Att Fuze
I have Outlook 2007
Vista Ultimate 64

i don't know about taskfacade, but i do know about vista64 and outlook 2007, and i could maybe help you, if you had a blueangel, but with the fuze you are definetly in the wrong section here, plus the version of the windows mobile device center would be interesting and what exactly is your sync issue.
- does it not detect the device?
- does it detect but give a red X?
- does it not sync all the elements it is supposed to?
- does it not work with exchange?
- is it just slow?
and for all that it would be important to know the rom on your device. not just you posting it here, people who might be able to answer that also need to know the rom, and that would be my problem here. but if you run a build 21725 or 23001/23003, the sync issue is well known for all the devices and if that is important to you, keeping it connected and synced, you should maybe revert to a previous build, or just try again in the fuze section

Lotus notes @ HTC calendar sync?

is it possible, how?
thnx
p.s. sorry if there is a thread, i tryed to search but didnt find anything..

Hi, I'm not entirely sure what your question is as your post title is not clear.
But, if you want to sync Lotus "Nuts" (I hate it but have it in the office) with the HD2 then Easy Sync Pro from IBM works quite well. It does do contacts (without photos) and calendar and tasks OK.
There is also a "Traveller " program for Lotus that claims to sync but I have not tried it.

XTNDConnect PC (6.5) works fine for me (with Lotus Notus 8)

Take XTND V7.xx it works.

Lotus Notes still exists?
I thought people used a real groupware server -- Exchange.

My work use Lotus Notes Traveller, its pretty good, the managers and directors can use it on there S740 Rose and Touch Diamond 2s.... So its gotta be easy to use, updates calendar on the phone also and notifies of meetings.

Thanks for the reply!
I uninstalled everything again and then it worked fine with xtnd connect v6.0.
Yesterday I got the 7.1 release, installed it and everything works fine now.
The only problem is that when i sync my emails the programm syncs them but into th outlook inbox. So I can´t reach them via the softkey and have to change the folder to outllok inbox everytime i want to have a llok at my emails.
Is there anything to adjust to view them on the email screen?
Thanks for your help!
