anyone???
surely there must be a way

Hi,
there ist a program "search" (icon magnifying glass) which you have to start
After that you can select "search in calender".

In Start->Programs there is a Search (or Find, don't know what it is called in the English version) item.

Reversing Contacts

Hello all,
Have done a search and have found nothing, so I thought I would make a post.
My contacts are all in the format "surname, first name". I find this to be really annoying, is there any application or option to reverse this so I have "first name, surname" ?
Thanks!
This little app will do the trick. Works perfect for me.
Only problem, each time you add a new contact, you will have to run it again, as the new contact is then again in lastname, firstname format.

Thank you sooooo much! Going to run it now....
NOTE: "reversing contacts" caused sync error on WMDC (Windows Vista).

Well, ...if you have too many contacts it's going to take a while, but if you don't wanna mess anything up with apps, try the following (helpful when inserting new contacts as well )
I just had the same prob and noticed that a few gaps below the "Name" gap, it says "File as" and when u click there you can choose if you want surname or name displayed first.
:O I did all 200+ contacts manually in Outlook then sync'd them across -_-"
this tool will come in handy for future use. Cheers

I am assuming that you have updated the BDAY field in the contacts on your diamond.
Now.. sync the diamond with the outlook on your PC.
Outlook will take up those dates from your diamond.. and update those into the contact files on outlook.
Those dates, will now also hit the Calendar on the outlook and individual reminders will be created for those dates.
Sync the calendar on your outlook with your diamond.. and you should have all the bday reminders set up and showing on your diamond (on the appropriate days)
All the best
Thanks a lot Lordraj !!
You are the best !!

I already wrote to HTC, requesting to give us back either the possibility of using plugins/items in the home tab with TF3D or at least integrate a possibility to config the home tab with birthdays out of contacts, number of future appointments shown, size of clock, number of todos shown etc.
Please also contact HTC and ask for this. If we are all asking and telling them, that without this feature the TF3D is just half as usefull... we will succeed!

[SOLVED] How to hide OUTLOOK from eMail tab in TF3D?

Here's a tip for all who wants to hide the OUTLOOK account from the email tab in TF3D who have 4 email accounts like me
(thanks to Pietje_1985 for the hint)
Make a backup of all of your emails (eg use PIMBackup) to get them back if it's necessary
Connect your device to PC via ActiveSync
Open ActiveSync on your PC
Tools -> Options -> uncheck Email
confirm the dialogue box
Worked for me
-Lycox
Good question. And additionally the "System" folder for Blackberry Connect users...
Lycox said:
I don't use outlook email account, so does anyone know, how to hide it from the email tab? It's useless for me.
Searching the forum didn't brought me an answer...

At least..one thing I know is try to uncheck the email option @ ActiveSync on your pc....I think it is telling you then it will remove all email stored on your device via Outlook....not HOTMAIL!
I'm figuring out if there's another solution....I thought there was....I'll let you know, as soon as I found it

Thanks, but does that delete my other accounts too, or just Outlook eMail?

No I think it should only remove your OUTLOOK settings and no hotmail...
Try this as well....PPC PIM backup:
http://www.dotfred.net/
you can also make a backup first with this app and afterwards try to delete the account...if failed, you can always revert back....
Good luck

Well okay, but there's no need for me to delete Outlook email complety, I just want to remove it from the email tab of TF3D.
Maybe, there's an entry in one of the manila files, that can be hidden or deleted...

Aha...ok....I can't help you with the possible manila file...because I don't know if it excist....maybe you can ask NISSE about that...and can't you remove the mail settings at your message settings where you can also view your sms/mms etc??

No, not possible with Outlook. Already tried that...
Use TF3D config (search for it in the forums) and in the first option it will say tabs on the bottom and you will be able to hide or add, even rearrange your tabs for diamond.

LOL, I don't wanna hide the the whole eMail tab, I just want to hide OUTLOOK inside the tab. Please read carefully before posting
Just download tf3d config (search for it in the forums). Once you open up the first page will be tabs, there you check or uncheck whatever you want to see for the tf3d.

I don't want to hide the eMail tab! Only OUTLOOK inside the tab.

ps for any1 having trouble getting email but internet and weather works change network connection to Work from The Internet
in Advanced Server Settings
Got lucky and didn't even bother configuring email when I first connected to ActiveSync and so I never saw that email account in the TF3D tab.
However, I would like to remove the Sprint Picture Mail tab and account from the Mail TF3D tab as I don't use it and it pushes one of my other email accounts off the screen so I can't see the unread count. Any ideas?

Ye, I second that, anyone?
nope
Well I can't get rid of outlook mail on my Diamond. I'll keep trying
There is another way without connecting the phone to the pc, just go to activesync then press menu then options then untick E-mail, same way of doing it just saves looking for the all important cable!

It's funny to see all my Call history sync in my outlook

For some reason, All my Call history was displayed in my Mobile Outlook Calender. I found it very funny, and it's pretty cool, because it showed how long my call was and when I made the call. I couldn't take a screen shot because as soon as I sync it with Activesync, they disappear... I kinda expected that.

I'm not looking for it... it's just happened... I didn't install any calendar software either. It's just happened like that.
There is plenty of software that can do that... example: Outlook extender

yes is the simple answer... i don't know why it wouldn't work for you
I have had trouble getting pictures for a couple of my contacts though, works fine on most of them
I can get all the contacts pictures but only some birthday, I'm not sure of the reason. maybe (but that's just my guess) the reason is that manila can get birthdays of people who uses english fb, it can't get other languages. looking at my contacts list it seems that way, maybe is just a coincidence
