[Q] exchange sync only contacts & calendar? - Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi All,
I am trying to set up the Exchange sync but I only want to sync contacts and calendar without email.
Is this possible?
Thanks for sharing your wisdom!

Kinda. Only solution i believe is to set ur sync to never push emails jsut always manually pull. Only suggestion i can think of.

[Q] new contact on phone cannot sync to exchange server

My captivate can connect to exchange server, and can syn email and calendar fine. It can also sync contact from exchange server. However, if I add a new contact on my phone, it cannot be synced to exchange server. Anyone has a solution for this?
Thank you.
under contacts hit menu/settings is it set to save to exchange server? I know if mine is set to save to phone. It never syncs with google. I must save it tp google account.

SYNCING APPLICATIONS- what's the purpose???

Hey
I know it may be dumb to ask but is their a need to sync Facebook or social media apps with your phone? I'm Abit confused of the benefits? I have Google contacts synced to phone which i think will sync my new contacts so I'm fine with that but everything else is it really useful or is it better to have them auto sync turned off for battery life...
Cheers

I dont turn on my sync still i get the update in facebook, google mail, apps, and yahoo mail. I dont know what is the purpose of sync?
Its better to turn it off for added battery life.
That's what I'm thinking but I'm scarred to turn off Google as I want my phone contacts always backed up. That's the only one I have synced at the moment.

yep when checking settings in email and accounts I think there are options there. At least for Exchange mail. Gmail its already push, dont think you can change it.
Always just check every setting within app as wel, Facebook has push for direct messages I think.
synch is old school, poll server, updates found download, repeat proces every few minutes
push, not entirely like blackberry but close, servers sees email and sends it to phone to download. Hence push.

Basically I sync all my contacts and photos with my google account so it will never be deleted unless I do
Syncing is to exchange the things between two accounts EG. Contacts & Google and if you lose the things on one account you can recover from the other account you synced by enabling the sync option again or you can delete on other also by syncing again
Its up to you
Hey
Thanx everyone for the advice. I think having Google contacts is a must just incase I add new contacts etc and I've synced my dropbox But apps like Facebook and whatsapp and twitter are so not needed so I've taken them all off. I can't understand why anyone would want to sync twitter or whatsapp lol just ludacris.

[Q] Sync exchange calenda, but no e-mail

Hi all,
I want to sync the Exhange calendar from work into my private phone, but I don't want the work mails in my private phone.
On the HTC Sensation I could only check calendar and the mail didn't sync.
On the HTC one Inbox of the mail is mandatory and always marked.
Is there a way to unmark it? I have also checked other apps, but couldn't really find anything just for the calendar sync.
Edit: Would be great if I could umark inbox in a system file or something
Have you tried after setup is complete going back into settings, accounts and sync, and un-ticking inbox there? Worked for me just now.

I've updated to Viper One and now I can untick the mail checkbox in the exchange account!
