How can you sync them to WP7?
Alas, you can't... yet if you e-mail to your LIVE account your bookmarks that can make adding them easier.

Can you sync bookmarks automatically like you can with an iPhone and MobileMe? Thanks

I'm hoping that eventually it'll sync bookmarks with Chrome, which already has a cloud-based bookmark sync.
If it does then the OP's question will be answered! Mac Chrome syncs bookmarks with Safari.
So to get this to work: Have Mac Chrome get bookmarks from Safari (I assume its not automatic as I add more bookmarks to Safari), then Chrome will sync those bookmarks to my Android device...? Thanks

No, Android currently has no bookmark sync with Chrome. But I guess someday it probably will.
I guess I misunderstood a post above then... Any way to sync Android and Mac Safari bookmarks?

Android does not do bookmark sync with anything yet but its said soon it will with chrome. There are some apps that try and sync things but don't know of a good one.
Also soon the mac to android sync package will support bookmarks but as of now it does not.
What "mac to android sync package?" Salling media? I think i heard that was the best one (and has iTunes playlist integration as well)
How do you sync the Omnia 7 Calendar with your Microsoft Office Calendar (2010)?
Pretty sure it's not possible directly.

Now I understand why and what to do: I have to get used to having/maintaining everything "in the cloud", which actually makes perfect sense.
I'm now maintaining all my contacts, calendar appointments, podcasts, pictures, and videos - in the cloud (my Windows Live Account).
Don't get too used to it if you don't want to. I'm sure that there will soon be sync apps available, including a SyncML client from Funambol. I'm not a fan of their stuff, but SyncML is a standard protocol (with much criticism).
The interesting thing is:-
I can create/update/edit appointments on my WP7 phone, however, these will not sync with my Windows Live Account.
If I, however, create/update/edit appointments in the calendar on my Windows Live Account, these will indeed be synced with my WP7 phone, BUT overwriting any and all appointments already created on the phone on the same dates(!), IF indeed I've turned on "Windows Live" under Calendar > Calendars on my WP7 phone.
As far as I know, I have no way of specifying whether the WP7 calendar should have priority over the Windows Live Account calendar, or vice-versa, thereby controlling the direction of the syncronization.
All this - in terms of "cloud computing" - makes perfect sense... nevertheless, it's not very practical, as I cannot create/update/edit appointments on my WP7 phone and expect the changes to appear in my Windows Live Account calendar.
As I use the Microsoft Outlook Hotmail Connector to get access to and maintain all my contacts AND appointments "in the cloud" in my Windows Live Account through Microsoft Outlook 2010, - the way I understand it - I have to access my Windows Live Account calendar through the WP7 browser and create/update/edit appointments there (if/when I'm on the move and do not have access to a computer with online access) in order for these to be properly transfered/updated on my WP7 phone.
Not exactly intuitive, is it?
I know it sounds strange, but i'm using gmail as cloud and it syncs perfectly between the calendar on wp7 and the calendar on gmail and the calendar on outlook on my desktop. For syncing between calendar on gmail and outlook i'm using gsyncit which is free if you're using it only to sync calendar.
Apparently it's better to use google cloud than microsoft cloud...
Hopefully, someone at Microsoft will hear of this, and take the appropriate measures... (embarrassing...)

I don't really know anyone with your calendar problem! All WP7 phones i have played with sync fine with live calendar in both ways...
Errr... And you've played with Samsung Omnia 7 as well? If yes, then please explain how you've synced your calendar.

Hi guys!
I just got my Omnia 7 yesterday and set my Live account with the phone up. It syncs perfectly both ways instantly, calendar, email and contacts. The only gripe that I have is that I dont get a notification if I receive a new email in a folder. The live tile displays only the main inbox
I bit the bullet and paid for online exchange hosting. I find the syncing is much faster then live and it removes most limitations I had like
Outlook Photos would upload to live
Company name could not be any length.
I know it's couple only but it did bug me and I hated having lot's ofl folders with the same information (contacts x 2 calandar x 2)
So I've just flashed a Gingerbread ROM after coming from mcr r9 for a few months. Prior to that I was on stock Sense 2.1 (I'm sure some may remember that! )
With 2.1 the calendar app, you had the option to have a good few calendars:
your google/gmail account calendar
a "my calendar" or similar calendar
the PC Sync calendar - for syncing with outlook
and iirc UK holidays
and maybe the Facebook calendar
With 2.2 going into the Calendar app and pressing [Menu]>More...>Calendars>[Menu] they removed the "my calendar"/"personal calendar" but you still have these calendars:
your google/gmail account calendar
the PC Sync calendar - for syncing with outlook
UK holidays
Facebook calendar
Now in Oxygen rc7/test build @6 Feb 11 you obviously get the new 2.3.2 calendar.
It looks like I only have
your google/gmail account calendar
UK holidays
So my questions are:
Is that correct or is the calendar still a WiP?
Is this something google are slowly changing over the android revisions i.e. Is this a feature of gingerbread or the 2.3.2 calendar? - So that people are forced to use google calendar as their sole calendar...
I need to use Outlook calendar on my pc and sync both a WM phone and this android phone from that - I don't want to sync my calendar with/migrate to google calendar thanksbutnothanks.
Do I have any options/workarounds other than to go back to froyo?
Thanks for reading this far and for any insight/help you may give.
I have had succes syncing my Outlook with something called Myphoneexplorer (for PC there is an android client app for this program.)
But I have found syncing the contacts can be a bit of a pain because of the multiple contact sources (facebook LinkedIn and Google) and it take some work to actually link the contacts on the phone to remove and combine the dupes.
I haven't had time to play with it very much but it did sync my contacts and calendar.
Still a robust and cloud consolidating option would be a god send.
Not sure if that would require better cloud support in Outlook but it seems logical.
I thought that the stock browser was supposed to sync your bookmarks from your Google Account?
It only appears to sync bookmarks from the Transformer to your Google Account...
Or was I clearly NOT paying attention as usual?
What is the easiest way to get your bookmarks from Chrome into your stock browser on the TF?
Doesn't sync the chrome bookmarks, only your android bookmarks. I think there are apps that do though. I actually prefer it that way. There are a lore of bookmarks on my pc I don't need mobile.
Pacifik: just an FYI, you were incorrect, the stock browser does indeed sync w/ your Google Chrome bookmarks.

Google Bookmarks and Chrome Bookmarks are separate. Go figure.
If you want to sync your Google Bookmarks, try GoMarks from the market.
If your Chrome Bookmarks are not syncing, go to Application Manager, Force Stop the browser and clear it's data. Then start your browser and enable sync. Of course, sync has to be enabled on your desktop, too.
I think you might be incorrect.
I've set up bookmark sync and books that show up on the bookmark page on the transformer show upon the bookmark toolbar on my laptop.
The only thing I've noticed is the sync can lag a few minutes sometimes...
I want to sync multiple calenders with my tmousleo. I use an exchange server for work and comcast email, and google calender for personal/family events.
I am looking for an option that does not include adding yet another email address if possible.
Thanks for the help.
no, I don't think so. wm65 will get confused if you sync with more than one calendar. Even if you succeeded in creating the two activesync, the calendars will overwrite one another.
