Ok so i have my touch synced to my hotmail account and on my laptop i have the outlook plugin to sync my hotmail account.
i have a copy of my contacts on my outlook for back up so when my phone sync i get double contacts from syncing to the hotmail account and when i plug my phone to the laptop to sync.
is there anything i can do so i wont have to keep deleting double contacts? every time it sync's to either one.
Disable "Sync Contacts" on your device.
when i do start / programs and go under activesync when i click on menu / options then uncheck contacts it give me
to proceed activesync must remove all contacts synchronized to our device, i dont want to remove them from my device.
is there another way?
You should select Options - Settings - and under "If there is a conflict", select the corresponding options to resolve your issue.
Somehow I seem to have lost the "envelope" icon for the Outlook account on my Mail Home page.
I have two POP3 mail accounts and the Outlook account and previously there were "envelope" icons for all three accounts together with the new message icon on my Mail home page.
Now I just have just have two envelopes for the POP3 accounts and the new message icon - the Outlook "envelope" has disappeared. If I go to the Inbox all three accounts are there as before and work normally.
Does anyone have any ideas how I can restore the icon to the Mail page without a hard reset ?
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
try switching off mail synchro in active-sync on PC -> activate a sync once -> reboot the phone -> switch active-sync on PC on again -> sync once again -> check phone

rhtizzy, many thanks for the response and the suggestion.
Sadly it made no difference. The process removed and then restored all my Outlook mail but there is still no "Envelope" icon for the Outlook account on the Mail TouchFlo Screen.
Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated
I've got the same issue. My push mail is coming down to outlook and I even get the new mail displayed as a little envelope with the number of mail on it at the base of the screen. However the main screen is blank and says No account and I only get the option to add a new one. If I go into messaging everything works fine. Any help would be gratefully received.
Having done a good trawl around google it looks like the issue may be Intellisync. Other users who have it display the same issue. It is down to the lack of harmony between TF3D and intellisync. I haven't found a work around or fix yet although someone mentioned hotsyncing to a new outlook programme at least created the mail account if not all of the settings. Sadly I also can't sync to any desktops as it looks like Intellisync is blocking me.
Found the solution
Ok - It looks like I've found the workaround. My guess is that intellisync is added seperately and so doesn't add the outlook details to the main mail page. 1/ First make sure that you turn on the 'activesync' as this is disabled by intellisync (settings for this are in the 'settings/activesync' area of intellisync program)
2/ Make sure that your desktop or laptop has either activesync (for xp) or mobile sync software (for vista) installed.
3/ Set up a new partnership ensuring that 'mail' will synchronise.
3/ Sync with Ms Outlook. NB - I advise using a clean install of ms outlook to ensure no conflicts.
4/ Your mail account is now added to TF3D with full interaction with your account:!
I am sure it's been covered, but I can't sync this to get my Google contacts for anything. I keep getting error code: 0x80072ee7
This is my first WimMo phone so go easy!
go to your gmail on your pc, then you want to go to contacts, then export contacts, and save them as an outlook file...then you want to log into windows live (if you dont have an account, make one up, and you can still use another email (you dont have to use a hotmail account), then after loading your contact file into windows live on your pc via the web, then you want to open windows live on your phone, and log in, then your contacts will sync, and be saved, like google, on windows live....
your lucky i was in a helpful/good mood because i just picked up my HD2, this all is windows help search away...
although you might have done this, a bit more info on how you got the error would be good...
There was a good thread about this in the HD2 General forum, unfortunately I can't remember the title. You can probably find it with a good search. It's within the last few days.
Basically.. in Settings -> Data Services -> ActiveSync, you can set up an email account that links to your gmail account and syncs the contacts. The account type should be Exchange. That's as much as I can remember. Just do a thread search, you'll find it.
if your contacts are on your gmail account, you can install SEVEN from here (You have to join their beta program and once you do, you can click on the "download software" link. Please select the consumer edition, and agree to the terms (read them carefully first, the reason is explained below). When you do you will be presented with the choice to receive a text message on your phone or other download options, select other download options, select HTC as the manufacturer and select either the P3450 or the T8282 as your model (the HD2 is not officially supported, but it works well at least on mine) and then you can download the cab.
The catch with SEVEN is that when you set up your account, it will send a text message to a number in the UK, they do that to register your phone on their system, and they only do it once per email account, although if you flash your phone and reinstall SEVEN, it will send the message again when you add your account again.
When you set up your account, you will be able to sync your email, your contacts and your calendar, and it will be setup as push. You can do this with gmail, AOL, yahoo, hotmail, and even custom accounts.
Hope this helps.
Phone the sound of it, you already set up an activesync to get your gmail email/contacts/calendar. I'm guessing you didn't unselect 'tasks.' If that is the case, then just go to activesync and in options, unselect 'tasks.' This should fix your problem (google doesn't support tasks so you can't sync them).
You can also deselect the tasks in data settings in the settings tab.

Hey All,
I have my device set up pretty well but I seem to be having an issue with my Active Sync/WMDC using MS Exchange as a the server.
The problem I'm having is being able to select the folders to sync. In WMDC on Windows 7 if I go into my "Change Content Sync Settings" and then select folders to sync, I see most of my folders but not all. The one I'm having specific issues is with drafts. The folder is not shown at all.
If I go into my HD2 to try and change in Active Sync, I dont seem to be able to edit the folder tree at all. I've also been into account settings on the email tab and the sync options but I'm calling no joy with that.
Any ideas for me please? TIA
Hello All,
I have another question/problem.
How do I get WMDC from erasing all the contacts and calendar items in my HD2? My HD2 does not have any partnership with the WMDC. I only need to open my WMDC when I will be updating Radio, for example. Even when I choose a partnership which does not sync anything, my contacts are still erased.
Thanks.
if you already have a partnership, delete it, then when you connect the phone, there are only two options in wmdc, "set up" or "connect without setting up" (or words to that effect, i'm not at a pc) choose the second option and it will connect but not sync.
