Wireless ActiveSync for Mac OS X - HD2 General

Hi, all my contacts are in Google and I have them synchronized with Address Book in Mac OS X, I am looking for an ActiveSync tool for Mac OS X that will allow me to sync my Address Book with the HD2 wireless.
I know that I could be using Google Sync but I am using the Exchange connection for my work email and I am synchronizing Gmail using IMAP.
Thanks

sync diary etc with exchange server

Hi, I've got an Xda IIs and i'm thinking about introducing acouple into my workplace, but i was wondering if it is possible to sync them with the exchange server here..
What i'd be wanting to do, is to log in either via gprs or a wi-fi hotspot, connect thru a vpn connection to our local network, and be able to change diary entries, access email, etc. on our exchange server.
Has anyone been able to do this?
How is it done?
Works beautifully for mail, diary, and contacts.
Connect your XDA to your desktop then got to activesync.
Options
Check "Enable Sync with server"
"Configure"
Setup synced data as required
then click "connection" fill out all fields.
Remember that if you are using ssl you will need to install the appropriate certificate on each XDA.
Cheers,
M.
PS Server Sync works over WLAN/BT PAN/Activesycn/and GPRS
Fantastic! Thanks!
Just wondering now, I suppose I have to run activesync on a non-NAT IP computer - ie one of our servers, yes? (for a/s via GPRS to work)
so... how does that work? forgive my newbieness... I've only ever a/s'ed via my usb cradle....
no, when you do server syncing, the exchange server 2003! speaks OMA (outlook mobile sync) an http connection to your mda/xda.
cool - thanks. One last thing - the calender that will be syncing is NOT the user's calendar, but a public calendar. can A/S sync this instead of the user's calendar?
EDIT: and we use exchange 5.5 - does outlook mobile sync work with that?
just wondering if anyone has had any luck with this.. it has been about 4 months... thought there might have been some new software that would do it...

Exchange Server contact sync

With activesync it seems to have an option box to sync to the server or from the server. Is it possible to do both ways? Or get something that will change the direction...i.e if the xda is in the cradle it syncs from the server if not it will sync to the server?
Any comments or ideas welcome
thanks
Simon
For exchange server, it sync both ways. If you got update from ur PDA it will update ur exchange server, and if ur exchange server is more updated it will update ur pda.
The settings are for those cases where the same contact has changed on both server and pda since last sync.

you cannot sync with your outlook and with an exchange server at the same time. Although active sync proxies the server sync through the cradle/activesync to the server. This way you can connect with the same profile on the road via GPRS as you can on your desk.
The exchange server sync only applies to contacts, agenda and email. the rest can only be synced through activesync.

Soon with Exchange Server service pack 3, Tasks will be included too.
For now, and for syncing multiple folders, (including Public Folders), http://www.odysseyinc.com/Software/On-Schedule/FRAMESET_Remote_ROSSync_index.htm

Password Manager for Win Mobile 5 + Mac OS X

Hi is there a Password Manager that can sync with Mac OS X. I checked out eWallet and it only sync with Win OS, SplashID only syncs with Win PC as well. SplashID has a Mac OS X desktop client but it only syncs with Palm OS. Anyone knows an app that can sync my P3600 with Mac OS X?
Thanks
I use "Missing Sync" with my Trinity in OSX without any problems.

Yes it does, too bad it does not sync with any password manager that I looked at (wallet, 1passwd, keychain, etc...) SplashID has a Mac OS X desktop client but it only syncs with Palm.

Multiple Exchange Servers

Hi All
One of the main problems I face in IT is having multiple exchange server mail accounts on Windows Mobile. However today I have finally solved the problem using my Shift... here's how.
The problem stems from the simple fact that you must only have ONE ACTIVESYNC partnership, and use IMAP4 for all other Exchange accounts.
PROBLEM
=======
Using IMAP4 is problematic. The protocol is not fully implemented and followed by IMAP on Exchange 2000 or Exchange 2003. Exchange 2007 finally follows the IMAP4 standard and thus allows it's use here.
The additional problem with IMAP4 (and this affects most WM5 and WM6 devices and the iPhone), is to do with deleting emails on your remote device.
Emails that are deleted either....
a. Remain in your mailbox so when you connect say at work or home using a full Outlook client the mails still appear,
b. they remain but also are 'deleted' in your Deleted Items.
This forces you into a manual DOUBLE DELETE and is a real pain to do every time every day.
The problem is with how mobile devices use the EXPUNGE command under the IMAP protocol. EXPUNGE must be issued to FORCE Exchange to remove the deleted items. It now appears that the Shift correctly follows the use of EXPUNGE and in conjunction with Exchange Server 2007 this now works like a dream.
Therefore....
EXCHANGE SERVER1 - USE ACTIVESYNC
EXCHANGE SERVER2 - USE IMAP4
EXCHANGE SERVER3 - USE IMAP4
etc for all other exchange mail accounts.
The servers you use IMAP4 on MUST BE EXCHANGE 2007....
Here is a link to enabling IMAP4 on Exchange 2007 as by default it is disabled.
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb124489.aspx
I have upgraded one of my exchange servers to Exchange 2007 and now do the following;
EXCHANGE SERVER 2003 mail account - ACTIVESYNC
EXCHANGE SERVER 2007 mail account - IMAP4
This now correctly works, allows me access to both my mail accounts and the Shift properly issues EXPUNGE and my IMAP4 mailbox is updated correctly for when I then use my full Outlook client.
Hope this helps everyone, as this has been my biggest headache using Windows Mobile and multiple mail accounts in the Corporate World....
Regards
Blitzspear
But this isn't a real solution as I still can't sync 2 calendars/list of contacts and IMAP doens't support push-mail as far as I know...
Yes, what about contacts and calendars? How do you handle those?

[Q] HTC Evo Shift won't sync with MS Exchange Server 2003

I am using an HTC Evo Shift and trying to sync with my work email which is on a Microsoft 2003 Exchange Server. It always gives me the error that, "Your Microsoft Exchange Server account does not have permission to synchronize with your current settings."
On the server settings I have the Enable Mobile Outlook access and the Enable unsupported devices boxes checked.
It never works. Any ideas?
