I just got a new dash to replace my old one. How do i transfer my calendar?
I feel the easiest way is to explore my dash and copy the calendar document then replace the file on my new dash with the old one's calendar? Where is this file located?
Can't you just sync it to outlook via activesync and you home PC?

It will be a lot easy! lol
It would. That would be the most direct route to your problem. Or you could transfer that to your windows live account and sync it that way, I think
i cant get outlook to sync with my calendar, im not sure why.
Do you use an exchange server? Or just standard email.

Hello, the company I work for has disable ActiveSync and therefore I cannot sync my email/contact/calendar, etc. from the Exchange Server.
As such I have a work-around for email/calendar, but need my contacts from MS Outlook on my Hermes. Is there a way to manually import my contacts onto the WM6 phone?
I am open to other work-arounds....thanks in advance.

The simplest workaround is copy the contacts folder from the Exchange Server to a local .PST and then sync trought Outlook 2003 in your local PC. This is two phase sync, but this is the only you can do if ActiveSync is disable in your Exchange Server.
Be carefull when ActiveSync come back with the dup contacts..
I have been trying to restore my contacts from my Mogul to my new TP2 with no success. When I try restoring just the contact data with SPB Backup, it hoses CPROG.EXE and SERVICES.EXE ...
Is there any other way to transfer the phone list? I have a LOT of stuff there I don't wish to lose.
I've used Total Commander to save pim.vol file to my storage card. Pop it in the TP2 and copy over.
Also use an exchange server. Google has a free one. I like Mail2web.
Export to outlook, import from outlook.
Why the **** would you try to do it the most complicated way? ActiveSync exists to SYNC.

Because my Outlook contact list is not on this machine; as well, I have a different contact list in Outlook from my personal directory on the phone. I don't generally sync the contact lists.
Microsoft My Phone
Login on Mogul
Sync.
Login on Tp2
Sync.

You can run ActiveSync without syncing contacts. Just uncheck them from the list.
Worst case, if you don't want to touch your outlook, make another account on your machine, get a clean outlook profile, sync, sync, delete the account.
Simpler = better.
If there is Sprint Store nearby, they will transfer your contacts quickly.
ok i have an outlook email account but its not part of activesync. I can of course get my email on the phone but on one of my older phones the mogul I could set up my outlook on it and i used it to receive vcf files, and my calendar, appts, and reminders.
is their any app or way to get it like that on my evo?
Moxier mail works for me
does moxier mail read vcf files? and can it pull in contacts? also isnt it 30$

The HTC Sync software actually works really well for me. I have Outlook 2003, and between it, and my google calendar, and work calendar, it all shows up fine on the Evo.
HTC Sync will take some tweaking, though. Your contacts (google in my case) will appear doubled - you'll have 'phone' and 'google' contacts - just link them and they'll sync either way - up to google or down to your outlook. The phone will act as the bridge between them.
but does that enable you to view vcf files? and import info?
Hi there,
I have upgraded from a HTC Touch Pro II to the new HTC HD7 phone.
Looks great and the menu's are spot on. I like everything about the beast apart from the fact that it wont sync with outlook.
Or will it?
Could anyone help me please
...of course you can sync your WP7 phone with Outlook. Only it works differently.
Check for "WinLive Solutions"....

You can also just use the Outlook connector for Live Mail. This will allow you to use Outlook on your computer and still sync your phone with the cloud. You can use all features of Outlook with this add-in.

Hi pal, just try the following, works really great! Guide: How to easily transfer your Windows Mobile contacts to your Windows Phone 7 device
http://windowsphone7central.com/news/guide_how_to_easily_transfer_your_windows_mobile_contacts_to_your_windows_phone_7_device-11-09-10.php
I've downloaded Outlook Connector and was able to sync my calender and contacts to my Windows Live account. But it looks like just an initial sync. If I add a new appointment in my Outlook Calendar I have to copy it to the Windows Live calendar that is in Outlook to sync with the online account and then phone.
I was using android for awhile and used Gmail sync which you could set 1 way or 2 way sync with how long you want between syncs.
Does the Outlook Connecter do this and I'm just not seeing how to set it up properly?
with the outlook connector you've got a new calender in outlook. you should have (a minimum of) two calendars after setting up the connector and you can choose which one to display. to copy all appointments to the cloud go to your offline calendar, mark all, copy, go to the live calendar and paste. after that just use the live calendar for all and will automatically sync with your phone
Also, if you set your default mailbox delivery location to the Windows Live account in Outlook account preferences, Outlook will use your Live calendar as your default calendar.

Hi,
Just wondering if anyone tried to sync outlook contact with android. Is that easy to do ? Could we use the usb when in android mode?
Thanks.
Easiest to sync with Google - export your contacts from Outlook (to CSV) then import to Google. Any contact in the "My Contacts" section of Google syncs automatically. Works in WinMo as well, now you can sync your contacts between systems, and if you lose your phone you just put the info back in and bam wirelessly get all your contacts .
I could try to do that =). But I guess I'm wondering if we could use the usb in android mode to sync with like windows 7 or something? I"m not 100% comfortable having all my contacts in gmail in case I get hacked =P.

So you think your contacts are safer in Outlook if you 'get hacked'?
lol...
Not sure if that is possible, I've never tried... Perhaps someone has?
Yes - i also think that an Outlook running on my own machine is more secure than some Cloud-stuff i cant control/monitor/whatever
b2t: Outlook or Exchange? Exchange can directly sync with Android. If you are just using Outlook you could use SyncML-Tools like Funambol to keep contacts in sync.
