My HTC HD7 phone (on O2) is on the blink, the screen is not working anymore but the phone can still sync to my computer. It's getting replaced tomorrow but I need to get my contacts (not on sim) off it. I've tried HTC SYNC, bluebook isn't compatible and Zune doesn't have this option. Any help????
Shouldn't they all be synced to windows live anyway? (www.live.com)
So your new phone should automatically sync them from there anyway.

i just got a new phone do2 rma from that auto complete problem i was talkin about earlier.
I made sure i backed up everything to outlook & did the sprite backup. however now i am trying to sync the phone & im not able to sync on my laptop or my desktop for some reason. do i need to reinstall sync to remove my old phones settings from the PC's or something? or is it a problem on phone that'd prevent any successful sync's?
I recently purchased a HTC Dream on the Rogers network.
I've been having a hella time trying to get it to sync using HTC Sync (it just won't recognize the phone). That being said I can mount the SD card and copy files to it with no problems.
Funny enough, when I turn on my Sony Ericsson K850i (previous phone) HTC sync on my computer pops up recognizing it, and asking if I want to sync with it.
I guess the main issue is that I want to upgrade to the new build, to fix the SMS timestamp issue (unless there is another work around?)
TIA!
Hi My X1i doesnt sync anymore with Windows mobile device center, i even downloaded updated drives (around 12MB) for WMDC but it still gives a sync error.
Part of the reason is that i also used to sync my windows 7 laptop with my X10i Android phone using "my phone explorer" until both phones cant sync onto my laptop although the laptop can detect them both. as a result ive got duplicates.
I updated the drivers for WMDC but no use, i tried this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=568643 please help me as i need contacts in outlook to sync with my phones phonebook.
I cannot get my new HTC Vivid (4 hours old) to sync with my PC. I downloaded and installed the latest HTC Sync file from this site. I opened the HTC Sync and got a screen that said no device was connected. I plugged the USB cord into the PC and into the Vivid. I responded to the screen by selecting the HTC Sync option. A screen displayed saying that the unit was synchronizing. While this was going on, the Vivid went to sleep. When I started it up again, the screen said the sync was disconnected. Since then, I have tried several times to make a connection and I always get a message on the Vvid that it cannot find HTC Sync on the PC even though it is running. If I cannot sync to my PC, the Vivid goes back to AT&T.
Works fine for me man. Reboot your comp. Often the driver won't take first round.

I had tried rebooting once, but I did it again. Still got the message from the Vivd that it could not find HTC Sync. Then several minutes later, I looked at the screen and the HTC Sync program was sitting there waiting for me to enter my device name and configure the settings. I must have been closing the program too soon, assuming it was not working. Unfortunately, it does not appear to be able to sync my Outlook tasks or notes, only my calendar and contacts. And somehow, I have each contact twice. Oh, well. Thanks for your response.

I had problems myself but after installing the universal version of sync, my computer automatically detected the Vidid. Of course a reboot was needed Good luck.
After I updated to the latest version of HTC Sync (3.0.5617) I can no longer sync my calendar and contacts with my PC. I could sync with the previous version. My Vivd is stock. I uninstalled Sync, including the driver, and re-installed the software. After restarting both my PC and the Vivid, I got the two to connect. I was able to create a device name, but I was not able to set up or turn on any categories. As a result, Sync would not let me sync. I unmounted the Vivid and turned off Sync. when I restarted Sync and plugged in the Vivid, I got the "could not find Sync on your PC" message.
I have sent an e-mail to HTC, but I have not yet heard from them. Has anyone else had this problem? If so, how did you solve it?
PS: Why is there no search capability today? When I logged in, I could not find the search feature in any forum that I checked.

I had sent HTC an email about the problem. They responded, asking for additional information. Here is my reply:
I am using the latest version of HTC Sync - 3.0.5617 (I believe that is the number. I am trying to recall it from memory.) I am using Outlook 2007. The error message appeared on my HTC Vivid, saying that HTC Sync could not be found or was not running on my PC. In fact, Sync was running on my PC because the dialog was right in front of me. Please note that I did not have these problems with the previous version of HTC Sync.
After several failed attempts to get Sync and Vivid to recongize each other, I had uninstalled and reinstalled the latest version of HTC sync, also uninstalling the USB driver, which was reinstalled. When I started Sync and plugged in the Vivid, several minutes passed, then a screen displayed asking for a name for my device. I entered a name and was taken to the overview screen. However, all the options were disabled. If I clicked on the Sync button, I got the message that no categlories were turned on or enabled. Of course, I could not turn any on because all the categories were disabled. I dismounted the Vivid and closed Sync. When I restarted Sync and plugged in the Vivid again, I got the same error message that the Vivid could not find Sync on my PC. I also had Outlook running.
After several more failed attempts to get Sync and Vivid to recongize each other, I had turned on my WiFi connection to check something on the internet. (My Vivid was connected to the PC via the USB cable.) I decided to try again. This time, the Vivid displayed a message saying that I was connected. The HTC Sync dialog on the PC still showed that no connection had occurred. I tapped on the Sync Now button. After the Vivid displayed a message that syncing was complete, the PC side then finally recognized my Vivid and displayed the overview screen. However, when I clicked on the Sync button, I again got the message that no categories had been turned on. But this time, I was able to access the Calendar and Contacts categories and click on the button to enable syncing. After that I was able to sync.
Now, you may consider the issue resolved because I was able to sync my Vivid with Outlook on my PC. However, I do not consider the matter closed at all. I spent several hours trying to get your updated program to work as the older version had worked. As a software developer (medical software for doctors), I do not consider the problems with your software acceptable.
