I got this strange problem. Contacts which have photo callers embedded or those which have notes written on them won't sync to my Kaiser.
Only plain contacts with no notes/photo will be tranferred.
I tried to hardreset, delete partnership, reinstall activesync etc and none seems to work.
If I edit the contact photo & notes from kaiser and sync it back to outlook it will works. Seems like it is set automatically to PPC overwrite PC?
What is so strange is that my other devices: Samsung i600 & MTeoR will sync just fine.
Anyone else have the same issue? and knows how to solve it?
Thanks.
Mine works fine. I have over 1000 contacts which more than half has photos and notes in it.
Same here, contacts with Photos and notes sync just fine on mine. Wish I had an answer for you.
Mine work fine too
I've had trouble with mine too. The initial sync sent all the contacts down except ones with photos or notes. Add a new photo to the kaiser and it syncs ok back to outlook, but not the other way.
In the end forked out for pocketmirror from http://www.chapura.com/pmp_wm.php
Its now syncing everything correctly, and means I can sync my work contacts separately from my wife's pda's. Doesn't let you sync remote Exchange yet though.
id reinstall activesync off of the install disk. a good place to start

is there a way of deleting all my msn contacts from the whole contacts system
takes forever to find any one thanks to msn live sync all the contacts into me htc contact
you should have de-selected the option "copy contacts from msn to my contacts list" (sth like this) while configuring your messenger during installation.
I suggest you now use outlook, copying the contacts of the kaiser to your pc, deleting the unwanted ones from the pc (it certainly is easier with a proper keyboard and a mouse) and then sync outlook with your mobile phone (be careful you should set active sync so that it modifies the kaiser's contact list by keeping the changes you made on the pc - have a look at active sync's settings).
i found a software that can actualy do it lol its called ClearContacts
name says it all lol
Glad to hear you found a solution lad
tho i did try the way you mentioned
but vista mobile managing software wouldnt let me sync contacts into outlook
oh yea another problem does your msn live run properly?
im having a massive problem with mine
Well, it says the server is not working properly and I can't connect at the moment... dunno if that's a world-wide issue
http://www.nuevasync.com I just set this up through the exchange server feature in activesync. It is an over the air sync to google calendar and contacts in gmail. (No pictures with the contacts in gmail ) I had a problem with duplicates at first, but I think that was because I was trying oggsync, goosync, and nuevasync at the same time. It appears to be working fine now. There are other options out there, but this one appears to be the easiest and free-est one out there without limitations. I hope you enjoy this as much as I am.
!Backup your stuff with PIM backup or something similar before you sync just in case!
very nice i will try it now
thanks chiles
with this we can now also change devices, roms, etc withoug worrying about PIM data loss

Can you set categories in Google Calendar and it sync over? That's my biggest annoyance, I 'need' categories in order to have PhoneAlarm do specific actions for me based on the event category, such as "Work meeting" quietens everything, but there are some others that set the power on time different, or make the sounds louder, etc.. That all works with using Outlook to sync, but I haven't seen an online solution that works yet.
I haven't tried. I seem to remember that goosync would dumb down your category to the one default category. It might have been an old version or something. Good luck with it though! I just looked and I didn't see any category option on the google calendar webpage.

Well...My contacts lost their pictures on the gmail contacts page. This doesn't keep all of the information. I also lost my throttle contact category information. It's good for a sim card backup tho
I haven't used it myself yet. However, on quick inspection, the settings page recognizes multiple calendars, so it might sync in separate categories. There doesn't seem to be an option to only sync contacts with phone numbers, so I don't want to use it yet because gmail creates new contacts for those you email.
gave it a try and seems to work well! i only sync my calendar(s) and fits to it almost perfectly. the only problem is.. i'm having multiple calendars at my google calendar, and i cannot decide which calendars to sync. anyways that's better than goosync, only one calendar can be selected to sync.. otherwise have to upgrade to pro.. :E
Thanks for bringing this to my attention. I was using scheduleworld with the funambol client, but that stopped being able to connect. I would like to try to us nuevasync, but for as simple as the setup instructions are my activesync says that "Microsoft exchange did not accept my logon credentials". The server source is setup per the instruction on nuevasync site. I am running the stock ATT rom with WM6.0. I haven't knowingly changed any of my network settings and internet and email still work properly, but I can not get either funambol or nuevasync to work. Any thoughs would be appreciated.

Hello, so I just got my Diamond about a week ago, so after setting up all my settings, rom and all that, I started adding pictures to my contacts, the problem is, I can't add pictures to a contact or even add a contact to the TF3D tab, because activesync will start making duplicates of those every time i sync with outlook. This never happened with my kaiser, so i even tried out some more roms, and i always have the same problem...
eg.
Create 1 contact, it syncs ok.
Add a picture to the same contact, active sync will create a duplicate and add a picture to the duplicate.
Try to delete any of the contacts, original or doubles, active sync will just keep cloning it till i remove the pic...
I've searched around before someone comes and flame, and i found nothing related to this issue, any idea what could be happening?
Very weird. 90% of my contacts have pictures and this doesn't happen.
are you also making a sim contact or outlook contact? are sim contatcs set to display?
Outlook contact, sim contacts set not to show. It didn't happen before with my Kaiser either.
Tried creating them on outlook or on the diamond and both result in a cloning, tho for some reason, now if i try to add a picture with iContact instead of HTC Album, the picture fails to sync, but at least it doesn't double the contacts, so i found a half-solution.
do you have WM live! messenger sync options set to sync contacts with phones contact list?
A little update.
I hadn't even ran Live! on the diamond once, but I noticed that the contacts would duplicate on Outlook only when I logged in or out of my MSN.
So now I sync'd the contacts on the diamond with Live! and they don't duplicate anymore, i still can't sync pictured but at least now i don't end up with 10 contacts of the same person.
If i add a picture on an outlook contact on the pc or through Htc Album, it doubles the person, if i add a picture using iContact, it does not sync the picture but doesn't clone the contact either, so i have it +/- fixed, even tho i'll have to add a contact, let it sync to outlook and only after add a picture.
In activesync and in wmdc there is an option under sync settings for contacts to either replace or combine contacts.
I'm guessing you've got it set to combine.
Hi,
I have a laptop running WinXP Sp3 office 2007.
Trying to sync with my diamond touch with Active Sync (AKA - "AS") It fails to sync some of the contacts while it syncs the rest of them... with no particular reason !
Can anyone give me a better sync software than the carapy MS AS ?
Thanks.
Daniel
Do you use iContact or another Software like this?
Try one: Save your last Folders of synchronisation.
Then turn it of - everything.
The do synchronisation again (and so without contacts).
then activate your former things to synchronize, with contacts, too.
I had the same problem - and this worked for me.

I am considering buying Galaxy Note, but there is one issue I haven't been able to clear so far:
How compatible are the GN calendar (s-planner), memo (s-memo) and contacts with Outlook and Google calendar? Can I synchronize between GN and Outlook calendar and contacts? Are the s-memo notes transferred to PC and if so, can they be exported to any other format (Outlook memo? MS Onenote? Evernote? ASCII text? Graphics?)
I have already had Palm PDAs (with the Palm Desktop on PC), then WinMobile devices (with Outlook) and got quite used to the comfort of being able to view and edit contacts, schedules and memos on both PC and the mobile device. If GN doesn't allow this, this would be a serious downside for me.
Everything is synced with Google. If your Outlook syncs with google then it shouldnt be a problem with the calander and contacts. You can add s-memos to calander events, but if you dont do that, then you have to manually sync s-memo things to Google Docs. But other than that its completely autonomous. There are also a lot of apps that do what you want. I would recommend buying a Note.
syncs fine with hotmail, exchange, google and facebook.
I initially had an odd scenario where hotmail gained some facebook calendar events (birthdays) but that seems to have resolved itself.
Thank you for the answer.
It has been written somewhere that the latest version of S-Memo can also synchronize with Evernote. Can anyone confirm that? And if so, does it just send the content as an image or does it retain some more formatting (text? www links? etc.)

sync works with evernote but it send the notes as images.
I am a sync-o-phile (oo-er, sounds a bit rude), always have been.
I now have my calendar and contacts synced with Google & Outlook using and App called Sync2 from www.sync2.com. It seems to work fine, although can fail when outlook is closed and it is still alive (I close Outlook to sleep my PC or Outlook can crash). I sync it and several other web calendars at the same time.
I also have my Outlook to do list sync to ToodleDo, and then to Due Today both on my PC and my phone. It uses Outlook categories as Project names, which is neat. I have not tried linking with the Notes To Do list as this seems peculiar to the Note, and I want a more general solution.
I like that Google/Samsung now seems to carry over Outlook categories for contacts in the Note. That means I can use them properly.
I use Evernote to sync all my notes as it is far more powerful than the Google notes thing, and more generic. I also love the ability to open a file, edit it, and save again, and it updates the note.
I use Basecamp on my PC, phone, and the web for managing projects and collaborating with customers.
For files I use SugarSync, and it syncs with up to 3 devices, up to 2GB for free, and I typically just ignore it an expect my files to be wherever I am.
Odd thing is that I have noticed several contacts getting images from other sources I never asked to look up. I presume Facebook. This is bloody annoying. Does anyone know how to stop it?

This is quite possible. I have also noticed the same behaviour on my WinMobile phone (HTC Touch Pro2), so it is not directly an Android related issue. And yes, the images for my contacts that appeared suddenly without my consent, are the same as their Facebook profile images.
Got a Note!
You've managed to give me the information I needed and finally I bought a Note!
So far I have been able to confirm:
Synchronizing Smemo with Google Docs - works great, text remains text, while images are embeded in the document
Exporting contacts from Outlook to KIES worked "sort of", while exporting to Gmail and back to Note worked great. I have managed to retain all the information and even code page (I used ASCII, not Unicode) worked as expected.
Exporting calendar from Outlook to Gmail and back to Note worked almost perfectly (apart from some inconsistencies which were due to duplicate entries in Outlook)
As for contact photos, it seems that only those which originate from Facebook are added to contact data.

I got all my contact photos from way back, and those must have come through from Outlook -> Google -> Note as Outlook is the only constant source since I was first able to do this (with my Sony Clie)
Perhaps in my case Outlook photos would also have been added through Google, but I exported/imported them via a .csv file, which didn't retain photos, only text data.
My outlook contact photos sync perfectly.
