The title says it all. I need to be able to copy and edit the Notes I have written on my Tilt, on the PC. MS Word can't seem to read it properly....or am I doing it the wrong way?
Any help would be appreciated.
The standard way of doing things would be for you to sync your phone with the PC, and the notes would appear in Outlook just like with the other data.
Are you creating .pwi files? If so, you cannot edit on pc that I know of. Ordinary .txt notes you can. I use the Notepad app for ppc and then the Notes txt editor on PC.
Can the pwi notes be changed or exported into MS Onenote Mobile?

Hi all,
I need some help please. I received my TyTn II yesterday and now I need to shift all my data (contacts, tasks, sms, etc.) across to the TyTn II before selling my S710.
I know I can use Outlook syncing to get the contacts and tasks across, but can someone please confirm exactly what process I should use as I've previously had syncs wipe the data on my PC when connecting a fresh phone to try and get data onto it. I have already been using the S710 to sync with Outlook 2007 on this PC (ActiveSync 4.5).
Also, can someone please tell me how to get my texts (sms) onto the TyTn II from the S710? - I've got Sprite Backup 6 on the S710, but I don't know whether the "upgrade" backup file option will work between a WM6 Smartphone and a WM6 Professional device. I've actually tried to restore just the "personal databases" from an S710 backup onto my TyTn II but the SMS's don't show up, only call lists and contacts.
Any help and/or advice would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
- Odie
Get PIMBackup. It's somewhere on the Forum here, and can backup your TXT messages fine!
Heck, I actually used it last week to copy 2600 SMS messages from my Nokia N80 (outputted to .csv) into my Kaiser...
It works great!
I don't actually think that DotFred's PPCPIMbackup - to give it its' real name - will work on a SmartPhone....as the name suggests, it's for "PPC" or Pocket PC devices.
You could ask the man himself - post in the thread in the Development & Hacking forum HERE, or visit his website DotFred.net.
Mark.
Thanks for the suggestions.
I think it might work if I can get my Vox SMS output as CSV, I think I've seen a program that does this. Then I can use PPCPIMbackup to import them into the Kaiser.
contacts, mail, agenda can be synch with outlook
for sms you can save them to SIM
Thanks for all of your replies.
As I had hoped, the contacts and tasks synced successfully from my laptop's Outlook 2007 (after getting the latest stuff synced from my S710)
Notes seem to have messed up in that my multi-line notes have been split into multiple single-line notes. I'm not too fussed about this as I didn't have that many notes anyway, but it's a little disappointing.
Now as for the SMS, I managed to get it done pretty painlessly using a fantastic program called Jeyo Mobile Companion (it runs on the PC rather than the device itself). It supports both WM Smartphone and WM Professional, and exports the SMS database as an XML file, which I then managed to import onto my Kaiser. Everything went smoothly, all items seem to be present and in the correct folders too. Fantastic!

CSV stand for Comma separated value and means that the value [in contact are Name, Surname, Number, etc...] are separated by the comma "," or other punctuation... Wikipedia This format can be open with Excel and convert to xls format...
Do you have your sms in csv format?? How can you import in the TYTN??
Thanks
Bye
I know waht csv is
I was asking for the csv format (the column order, wether or not text should be double quote enclosed) that PIMBackup is using for importing the sms.
I got them into a csv file using Float's Mobile Agent it should work for almost all Sony Ericsson mobiles.

I made a backup with "Binary backup" disable and PIMBackup made a .pib file that I opened with 7zip and I found a .csm file. I opened it with Notepad and I found this code for the csv:
Code:
Msg Id;Sender Name;Sender Address;Sender AddressType;Prefix;Subject;Body;BodyType;Folder;Account;Msg Class;Content Length;Msg Size;Msg Flags;Msg Status;Modify Time;Delivery Time;Recipient Nbr;Recipients;Attachment Nbr;Attachments
Now i will try to edit this csm with my csv info and try to restore... I hope thet it works...
Where is the Contacts file on the Tilt?
I am getting an error message when my phone tries to connect to outlook. And after trying to reinstall outlook, I still cannot resolve the issue. I never use outlook, so I am tempted to ignore the problem.
But I want to add about 50 contacts to the phone and it would be a lot easier to do it on my computer. Is it possible to download the contacts file to my computer, edit it, and then replace it on the phone.
thanks

1. welcome to xda-devs
2. search & read the Wiki (it shoudl ALWAYS be the first you do before you ask a q), I've published several articles on how these databases work
in a nutshell: sync with the desktop Outlook, and do the manual work on it. rely on Outlook's syncing to do the trick

Hello and welcome to xda-dev,
You have to use the Sync app from Sony-Ericsson on your PC.
The phone numbers, adress email, and calender entries are going to be copied on Outlook. After that, transfer your photos in a folder on you PC.
Synchronize your Diamond with ActiveSync (or Windows Mobile Device Center on Vista) follow instructions for all entries. Copy your photos where you want on the Diamond.
Sync your SE with Outlook. Software is available from SE or use 3rd party software.
For other files (pics, ringtones, etc.) use the bluetooth explorer on your Diamond or use USB cable.

Thanks, great! I guess I can create a new profile in Outlook in order to not mess up my existing Outlook contacts with my phone contacts. Right?
No!
Your contacts have to be in the MAIN Outlook-Contact-Folder
NOT in a subfolder, cause ActiveSync is not able to sync
subfolders in Outlook- neighter calendars nor contacts...
Is there any way to copy my SMS messages to the diamond?
No chance?

I fear that the only way to do it is using Jeyo Mobile Extender: http://www.jeyo.com
hmm... looks good. But how do I get the messages from my SE into Jeyo? I managed to transfer them to my PC to a xls file but I cannot load them into Jeyo...

The easiest way would probably be to import them into Outlook and then sync with your Diamond. Outlook accepts different kinds of delimited .CSV as well as different generations of .XLS and even Access db files so you are not in any way restricted to .wab (which is actually Windows Address Book and not Outlook)
I do not have outlook (i only use webmails).
But ... is there a way to type in my contact on my PC (easier) using a freeware ?

Okay then... refer to this link http://pdaphonehome.com/forums/ppc-...import-contacts-csv-file-without-outlook.html - someone here had exactly the same issue you do and they got it resolved without Outlook. Hope this helps
You can also try Jeyo Mobile Companion http://www.jeyo.com which has a feature to import many kinds of files (including .csv) straight into your device without the need for Outlook
TNX gust i'll test later this WE.
Any one can tell me, What Diamond Contacts file type is? and if can be edited?
Do NOT hesitate for any forward suggestions?

No one has a tip... ???
Please: Where are the contact stored on the Diamond & can this be edited ?
Thx a lot

Hello,
I am looking for a contactlist/phonebook editor (windows xp) to edit the phonebook of the diamond touch ( including the pictures )
I know of the xml backup, but it dumps all contacts separate.
Is anyone working on a easy to use editor ?
thanks in advance.
If you use ActiveSync, the default application is Outlook's address book I believe. It's pretty convenient and has support for editing photos and all different kind of information fields on your contacts.
aye - you get a free outlook with the thing - use it. If you already have outlook running even better.
I just couldnt figure out how to have it sync only a specific category of contact. I know you can do it, i just cant find the setting.......
you can do all your editing on the phone through the menu.
I sync mine through Lotus Traveler only problem is it keeps listing them Surname, Forename instead of the other way around - I keep having to go into each contact individually and change it around after each new ROM install.
