MDA III BlackBerry Calendar Synchronisation - MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General

Anyone knows if/how I can disable the wireless calendar synchronisation? It’s greyed out in ActiveSync as a result of the BlackBerry integration. I work with Outlook subfolders and it’s way more important to sync those instead of having wireless sync possibilities.
Thanks.

I am in a similar situation, I clicked on the Blackberry icon, just to see what it looked like, now Activesync has disabled calendar sync.
I did not click on "sync calendar" when the warning popped up in the blackberry settings.
I tried uninstalling Blackberry.
Any ideas?

ActiveSync Not Allowing My Calender To Sync??

I have an MDAIII with blackberry instant email, i am not using BES.
ActiveSync will not allow me to tick the Calender box to sync with my PPC?
I can get it to allow me to tick it by going in to sync with server, then removing this option but as soon as it syncs (USB) the option is removed and it will not allow me to sync my calender from Outlook?
I have tried AS 4 to no avail, i am using Outlook 2003 and this works fine with my MS Smartphone, what can i check or alter on the PPC?
I have also tried re-installing the latest TM ROM but to no avail, ditto deleting the partnerships in ActiveSync!
Any pointers would be GREATLY appreciated!!

Missing Inbox on TouchFlo

I just got my new TouchPro 2 on Verizon today and I installed wireless sync to have my emails from work pushed to my phone (used this on my XV6800). The Outlook email was created correctly and I can access my inbox if I go to all accounts but I can't find out how to add a link to the inbox on the email tab in TouchFlo. The email tab will show that I have new emails but I need to go to the Windows Mobile accounts screen to get to it.
Is there any way to add this account to the email tab in TouchFlo?
You are not alone. Same problem here. Looking for the answer.
Do get the number of messages, but no access to them in TouchFlo?
Yes it will display the number of messages but there is no easy way to display them through the email tab. I have been clicking the inbox link in the notification message that I get when a new wireless sync message comes through. It works but it would be nice to be able to view the messages downloaded through wireless sync in the same way as my gmail account.
Ha. It took me 2 days to figure out why I had 1 message showing on that tab (damn "welcome" email in outlook inbox). I suppose that the whole email tab is of no use to you then, if you use outlook. Maybe a plugin for the home tab is possible?
Same issue
I am also having the issue of the Outlook email not showing on the TouchFlo email tab. I have looked everywhere to try and find where the configuration for this tab is stored, but no luck.
I did have it showing previously when ActiveSync was configured to sync with Outlook (in addition to Wireless Sync), but if I did not disable ActiveSync completely when connected to my computer it created duplicates, and kept creating them for as long as it was connected...Big mess. When I disabled syncing with the inbox on ActiveSync, it deleted all of my email (on the device, then wireless sync deleted everything in Outlook as well), and the Outlook email no longer showed in the TouchFlo email tab.
I am thinking that setting up a bogus ActiveSync partnership with a computer that has nothing in Outlook (and selecting the Inbox) might be a workaround, but it should not be this difficult.
NOTE: I tried removing everything and setting up a bogus partnership through ActiveSync, still did not put the Outlook email back in the TouchFlo Email tab. Just have to use Start > Messaging until someone figures this one out. Would be nice to have it working correctly.
Same issue here. I added second email account, not in wireless sync, but in the email setup, a POP3 account. Now the little envelope goes to that account and then on the bottom you can see the inbox and navigate to the outlook inbox which is your wireless sync. It gets you there with a couple of extra steps, but it isn't the same.
Additionally, you can't see your email for a particular contact, in your wireless sync email. That is a huge benefit of the HTC Touch Pro 2, in that it integrates emails, SMS messages, phone calls, facebook, all through the contacts. Hope someone finds a work around, this is very irritating. Love the phone, but without this, not sure if I will return it within the 30 days.
I'm having the same problem, does anybody have a solution for this?
Thanks!
Same problem
I've got the same issue. Anyone ever find a solution for this that doesn't involve a hard reset?

Any Web Service to Sync My Wife's Calendar to My Device?

OK, here's the deal. My wife won't get a smartphone. And she refuses to use Outlook or similar desktop mail/calendar. She has her one Yahoo email address and is happy with it. Period. She keeps dates on a calendar in the kitchen.
I sync OTA with exchange through my office for all work related appointments. I then cable sync at home to add my personal calendar items. Is there an online calendar through Yahoo, Google or similar that is simple for my wife to use and would allow me to sync my wife's calendar to my phone as well?

Google Calendar would probably be your best option to bridge this gap for you
It's crazy simple for her to use (and for you to setup for her), and has quite a few sync options, including windows mobile...info on how that would work on your end are HERE.
Thanks for the Google info and especially the link. It's cool to see how people on xda go the extra mile to help each other. After reading your Google link I think I have realized that the limitation may be with Active Sync. It looks as if under the 'Configure Server' settings in ActiveSync there is only the optioj to configure one push account. Since I am hooked into my exchange server at work I don't see a way to also add the Gmail server settings as well.

That is correct (as far as I know), you can't setup GCal and Outlook to both sync to your phone's calendar separately.
However, what I was thinking of (and didn't do a good job of pointing you to...) is that you can setup GCal to sync to your outlook calendar on the desktop side, then when you sync to your outlook, whatever your wife has added to her calendar will be there as well.
Step-by-step HERE. Basically, you'd sync her google calendar to your desktop outlook at work, which would then update that on the exchange server. Whenever you synced with that, locally or remotely, you should get the stuff from her calendar as well. You can setup the GCal-outlook sync to be one-way only, so she doesn't get all your work stuff added to her own calendar.
Let me know if that would work for you...I don't really know of any other options for a simple calendar for her to be ok with, that will get her appts onto your phone...other than maybe just using opera to view the web version of her calendar..??
You can sync multiple accounts, multiple calendars to each account, etc, each winding up in their own individual category with ActiveGCSync.
It uses Google's API directly, so no activesync etc.. It can sync calendar and contacts, but honestly syncing contacts takes forever. Syncing the calendar could take 1-2 minutes depending upon how much change there is, but IMO not too big a deal for the flexibility.
I demand having each calendar in its own category so it shows in different colors and PhoneAlarm acts differently on it.. Am In in a work meeting? PhoneAlarm lowers all volume. Personal event's show up in a different color, etc..

Sync WP7 with Thunderbird

Hi
Does anyone know if anyone's working on this? It seems like SyncML is the most likely contender, but I've not seen an app yet.
Hi,
If you want to sync an email account just add email account in WP7. Don't forget to check that your thunderbird account is an imap one. If it's a pop one, delete it and change for imap.
If you want to sync calendar use google calendar (instead of Lighting) and add thunderbird google calendar tab 3.5 plugin.
or... windows live? you can expect windows phone to work exceptionally well with windows live...
