Is there a way to sync using wi-fi?
yep - google sync
Really there is? as what I heard, there was NO way to synch that. Me googled too, but nothing popup, can you provide pls more info?
http://www.google.com/mobile/default/sync.html
btw with a special version from activesync it was possible to sync with wlan. But has been removed dues to security reasons :> and you cannot use older AS versions
ok, question....if i do this, will it show my upcoming birthdays/events on my home tab, the same way it would using Outlook?
it syncs google contacts and gcalander to poutlook. So yep.

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.

Ca you help me, to find stand-alone mobile software to synchronize the diamond Outlook with a Google calendar.
I am not looking for a web site solution GooSync like.
I have tested GmobileSync, but it makes me some synchronizing errors…
Any information is welcome.
Thank you in advance
Hi, i use OggSync 4.19. It is easy and dont make any errors.
So you aren't interested in using a Exchange type solution? Like https://www.nuevasync.com/. It works flawlessly and can sync your contacts too. And it's free.
It's offline right now for a database rebuild (http://nuevasync.blogspot.com/) but try it out.

Personally, I think nuevasync is better, but it's a "web site solution", which you said you don't want.

I use OggSync too. Free version only syncs contacts though, the Pro version costs ~£30/year and can sync multiple calendars, even ones that have been shared with you.
It works well and you don't need a connection to a PC etc. I just wish there was a one off payment. I might look for a free alternative when my sub expires as I don't update my calendars or contacts much.

Just had a read and it only syncs one calendar. Doesn't look like it syncs contacts either, I know it's not what the OP asked for but I prefer the all-in-one solution.
I use oggsync with google calendar and its great. No errors. The pro version will allow you to sync contacts and multiple calendars.
My set up works well for me
WM Pocket outlook syncs with outlook on my home pc
google sync (official google app & free) syncs with outlook
Therefore everything gets synced !!!
second on oggsync. works great even with free version. Pro version can setup a auto-sync. you can keep it in background, and it will sync every given interval

I have input all settings but it doesn't want to sync
I had this same issue since it was a suggestion for AthineOS's newest M2D release which is like a cross hybrid email system between 6.1 and 6.5.
Partially Working
According to the Google help forums, email syncing is not active yet. After reviewing the site below, there is no mention of emails syncing

I was able to get contacts and calendar syncing.
If anyone is experiencing error 0x80004005, trying removing calendar sync. After successful sync, add calendar back. If error continues, try adding an entry to your calendar.
was anyone able to sync multiple calendars with WINDOWs mobile??
i tried m.google.com/sync but it says my phone is not compatible.
Even after changing the language, it didnt work, i m just able to downloadthe page but no calendar options in there.
when I go to m.google.com/sync
it tells me - device is not supported
well, google agenda and contacts sync works fine for me.. did not do anything special.. just the abc from google..
working whit the rom from -G-(garmin) version 10... just the plain full version.. no M2D or something els..
Thanks for the Tip!!

oO much better, because it sync's your outlook without your phone with google.

I had this error and the suggested solution didn't work.
However, the opposite (removing contact sync, sync, add contact back, sync) DID work.
It does seem a bit of a strange procedure, does anyone know what is causing this?

I know this is a rather old message but I would like to share my knowledge as I searched for this 0x80004005 error for a while.
The trick is to disable the tasks in the syncing and then it works like a charme.
Moving from a WinMo phone to the Captivate. I want to keep using Outlook for my e-mail, contacts and calendar. I know how to export the info to Google and have it sync to my phone, and I even found the Google program that automatically syncs the calendar on a schedule, but I want a solution that bypasses the Google cloud entirely and lets me sync directly from PC to device. Missing Sync looks like the right program for this, but unlike CompanionLink, they don't offer a free trial. Anyone here used it? What do you think of it? Before I spend $39 I'd like to get some input. Thanks.
They are bith buggy as hell. I was also looking for a non-google sync and th eonly thing I found that works reliably (once you get the first sync) was Kies.
Running fresh install 2.2 on captivate - I've spent the last several hours trying to find a way to sync the captivate with outlook... and nothing is coming up as a reliable & cheap way. I would have never thought that a modern(ish) phone would have issues syncing with outlook. Never had a problem from the old 8125 up to iphone 3gs... but thought I would check with y'all to see if anything less than $50 has come up that would do the trick. I've tried Kies/MyPhoneExplorer(didn't see outlook calendar data except holidays and recurring events). I don't want to mess with google calendars and I live by the calendars for scheduling business! Any recent developments I should look in to?
Android and Outlook have generally never been close friends. There are a few paid apps you can find that do a very good job of keeping your information in sync.
If your business uses exchange you can set up your exchange account in the e-mail app on your phone and it will allow you to sync you mail, calendar and contacts.

Unfortunately my work is my business of me, myself, and I - so I haven't popped for an exchange server, but the frustration is almost close enough to just look into getting one done - and I've had a hard time finding an ap that syncs outlook and respective contact fields properly with the phone. I understand it's a google vs. MS deal and so they don't want to make it an easy one.... but it's a stupid idea since it will just push people to use iPhone, IMO. For now, I've relented to having to clumsily use google sync and the google calendar program to sync between to two. I just hate having middlemen to have to do it.
I use Kies 1.5.3.10093_80. I hear the newer versions are blocked from working with the captivate, but the older version works find for syncing w/outlook on my home system.

I use Google Calendar Sync and GO Contact Sync Mod. My ISP uses Google Apps for email etc... They were both free and work well.

I use the same apps, to keep contacts and calendar sync. For the E-Mail I just configure in Outlook the Gmail account as IMAP. The only drawback is with the custome field in google that Outlook can't handle.
