Activesync problem with mail for exchange - Touch HD General

Hi,
This must be covered a million times already so have patience... I'm using the company's mail for exchange server for synching my mail, calendar and contacts. Usually works like a charm, but when I tried creating an appointment in my phone, I got the error 0x86000107. Tried recoupling the phone, taking calendar and/or contacts off of the synch schedule with no results. Only thing that worked was deleting the appointment in my phone and then obviously recreating it in outlook.
I'm using the standard rom (6.1) Build 20769.1.4.5
Thanks in advance...

Sync with Exchange AND another Outlook?

:?: Does anyone know if it is possible to keep TWO Outlooks in sync with ActiveSync (when one of them is an Exchange server)?
You can keep switching off the sync with exchange to sync with the second outlook calendars but this resets all of the associated sync data (such as modified date etc)...
Any ideas appreciated!
You might want to be a bit more specific...
I currently Sync with Outlook on two PCs and one Exchange Server, here is how I'm configured.
Work PC: Sync- Calendar, Tasks & Notes
Home PC: Sync- Calendar, Tasks, Notes & Contacts
Exc Svr: Sync- Calendar, Tasks, Notes, Contacts & e-mail
This allows me to:
1. Have an offsite back-up of my personal contacts.
2. Have ready access to all personal & business appointments everywhere and have the info backed-up offsite.
3. Have a dedicated e-mail address that only goes to my phone via Push e-mail.
Works great for me.
Exc Srv- Contacts/ Calendar/ EMail/ Tasks
I am trying to connect to another Outlook instance @ work just for the Calendar and Contacts to keep them in sync.
When I select those in ActiveSync (the Work PC) it says that I need to uncheck the connection to the Exchange Server...
Any ideas?
Kyphur, do you have the problem that when you sync with your PC, it tried to reach the exchange server first and takes forever (due to teh fact that GPRS is disabled during activesync). That is the problem I had as well as what zb6673 is saying.
I owudl love to get this worked out becuase I got addicted to push email and also like the idea of an offsite backup

I am using the T-Mobile US 2.26 OS Rom (AKU 2.3) with ActiveSync 4.2
When I am connected to my PCs, Activesync on my PC connects to the Exchange Server (and the status is displayed in Activesync on my desktop).
I wonder if my problem is that I'm using teh free mail2web. I don't think it allows pc's to connect to it. Thanks for your help, I'll do some more digging (or setup my own exchange server at home )
So you are NOT really connecting to two seperate instances of Outlook (for example you would have both the Calendar for the Exchange Server AND the calendar for the local PC checked in Activesync).
I found a solution in that the PC I want to keep updated I can use Laplink PDAsync...that seems to work...I'll have to see if the autoarchiving from exchange works if the records are not "touched" by PDAsync...

I'm using mail2web free account also. It won't allow MS Outlook to connect but an Activesync connection is an Activesync connection...
well I gave mail2web another go today. It worked perfectly until I unplugged my phone. The next time (and every time since then) Activesync on the PC hangs while "looking for changes" after it finally times out, I can sync by clicking teh sync button on my MDA. The pc keeps saying "connected - synchronzation error"
So its working, but its a pain waiting for the PC to time out everytime I need to sync.
wella s soon as I typed that it started working correctly, then hung the next time. :roll: oh well.
I used to skip all PUSH related posts because before i didn't have a data plan. Now that i do i'm trying to get it to work.
I set up an account with mail2web, put the settings on my phone and i'm getting an error saying The server cannot be reached in activesync on my PC.
I noticed it won't let me sync my outlook emails (two hotmail accounts and one gmail account) AND the mail2web exchange server. It's either one or the other. I'd like to have access to both, or is this not possible.
I gave emoze a shot but didn't like how it'd wait for outlook to sync then push those emails. If anyone can point me in the right direction as to where to get started and what to do that'd be great!
I have a question in the same vein.
I have recently been given access to an Exchange account on my work server.
I would like to be able to sync all of my accounts together. (Outlook at work> outlook at home> mobile outlook.) Mainly I just want the contacts and calendar functions.
The dilemma I am facing is that when I try to sync outlook with my laptop, it tries to find the exchange server (which for the life of me I can not connect to with my laptop). Is there any way to bypass this?

kyphur: How do you do this. Using ActiveSync 4.2 when you have the exchange server defined (for contacts) if you try to pick contacts on your home or work sessions it says you can't do that while exchange is defined for contacts.
What I want to do is similar to what you are doing so I would love a solution. I have exchange 2003 at home so my home outlook is already sync'ed with exchange. What I want is my outlook pst at WORK to get its contacts from the PDA. The only way I can do it now, is remove Exchange contacts, turn on WORK contacts with the PDA have it sync and copy over; then take OFF WORK contacts and put back Exchange contacts, which is a crappy process to have to keep doing when there are changes.

Maybe the saving grace for me is that I always configure the Exchange Server after I have the two PCs configured to Sync.
I am currently using ActiveSync 4.5 Beta but I have been doing this since AS 4.0.

Thanks for replying...
Unfortunately its not working for me. I removed all the sessions, re-added Work and Home with contacts syncing... then added the exchange server and it will not allow me to pick Contacts for syncing with the following error...
"You cannot sycnhronize contacts with Exchange Server because it is already synchronizing with Work PC. To synchronize contacts with Exchange Server, clear the contacts check box for Work PC, and try again."
Did you possibly have to change some registry/etc on the PPC to get it to allow this? Are you running something like AKU 3.2 that maybe allows this type of syncing?
I am also using ActiveSync 4.5Beta but it looks like its a problem more on the PDA then on the desktop.
Solved!
I had the same problem.
I've found a solution in the newsgroup microsoft.public.pocketpc.activesync.
Here is the link:
http://groups.google.com/group/micr...read/3c269ef3f5c96321/48c16c74400cb034?tvc=1&
My prerequisites:
* MDA Pro ROM-Version: 1.30.113 GER
* Two PC's with XP SP2, Outlook 2003 connected to two different Exchange 2003 Servers.
* ActiveSync 4.2.0 (Build 4876)
1.Change the following registry entry on the PocketPC
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\ActiveSync\
EnableNonLocalCrossPollination=1 (DWORD)
2.Soft reset the PocketPC.
3.Change the options (appointments, contacts, tasks, ...) in ActiveSync on the PocketPC. Note: It is only possible on the PocktePC!
4.Connect the PocketPC to the PC and you're done.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
UMH

Xpress Mail and outlook Contacts

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.

I do have that...just on my vx6700 with wireless sync i could sync my outlook when i push my mail......could i use wireless sync?

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,

Exchange Sync Issue - Emails Stuck In Outbox

I am having an odd issue with Exchange sync. I have tried running two different Roger's ROMs to get full Exchange sync support. I can receive sync changes but not send them. Emails sent from my phone get stuck in the outbox. Contacts or calendar items changed on the phone never sync back to Outlook. However, anything changed in my Outlook syncs to my phone. Best way to describe it is it's only one way instead of both ways.
Any thoughts on what I can do?
Thank you. Ken

[Q] Exchange ActiveSync

For two weeks this apps works fine, syncronising perfectly well with my MS outlook mail, contacts and calendar. 2 days ago I realised that outlook email has not been coming in through auto sync. When I (force) synchronise, I keep getting the message "Sync Prorocol Error" for the mail. I can send emails but cannot receive. The calendar and contacts are synchronised ok. I can sync other folders but not Inbox.
Anyone knows how to resolve this ??
I am confused, Are you syncing with a local Outlook or are you actually using Exchange Activesync to sync to a Exchange server?

I am trying to sync with Exchange server, via 3G or internet connection.
I've done quite a lot of search on the problem but there're not many clear solution. So I decided to delete the account (all mails, calendar and contacts deleted) and re-activate again (of course very tedious, especially with so many emails and contacts to sync). But so far it seems to solve the problem (not sure what was wrong), sync every hour and it's good. Have to wait for a few days and see how it goes.

Update
After two days (after deleting and re-activating account), Activesync seems to be working alright now. Mails, calendar and contacts auto updated without problem, both using G/3G/E/H or WiFi Not sure what was wrong

After about a week it happened again. No outlook emails coming in. When force sync, "Sync Prorocol Error" came out. However I can send emails and I can sync "sent item" folder but not "inbox". Calendar and contacts are ok.
Anyone experienced and found answers to this.

Calendar suddenly not syncing from Exchange to HD2

Hi all
My HD2 is running the standard T-Mobile ROM (I know!) and has been working fine using an over the air sync my Exchange server. However, in the last few days both mine and my bosses HD2's have stopped syncing the calendar from Exchange to the HD2. Emails, contacts etc are fine. Appointments added to the phone sync back to Exchange and appear in Outlook, but any appointments added to Outlook do not sync back the other way. I have tried removing the server partnership and adding again, have rebooted the server etc.
Any suggestions would be great!
Tom.
