Hi. I have problems with my synchronization. Only with my appointments.
I have 3.000 appointments (birthdays, doctor, lunch, etc.); but
when I try to synchronize with activesync, any mistake appear
and suddenly I have 38.000 appointments and I can't synchronize.
My problem is big because I can't change the rom for another.
I use pimbackup 2.8 but anything not work correctly and I can't
restore over a new rom.
How can I recover my appointments (goods)?.
The file .vol...is the important?.
If so, can I import with any program?.
I'm losed; please help me.
Thanks and regards.
Hi,do you use Outlook office ? Look in your contacts folder on your computer if they are not in double or triple .
No.
Hi.

I have upgrade from an XDAI to an XDAII, I have trawled through this forum and cannot find the answer. Please put me out of my misery want to transfer the data stored on the XDAI to my XDAII what is the best way of doing it. Obviously you cant use backup and restore and I have tried copying and pasting the Db directory (not possible).
Any clues anyone, I would be very gratefull
what data because if it's just contacts and appointments and tasks and such tnen it activesync with outlook and will automaticly be transfered
programs you can reinstall using activesync 's addremove programs
It is contacts appointments etc.. but I cant use my contacts and appointments because I administrate about 20 of these XDA's so they only connect as guests. I dont want all of the appointments and contacts in my Outlook.
spirit backup or something i think let you choose what you will be backing up maybe if you can choose only those things you can restore it on the xda2 even though it came from xda1

You could just add a new user to windows and use that user's outlook for activesync to store the information in, then delete everything and move on to the next one.. Not ideal, but it should work.
Oh, if you make the user's profile mandatory (not sure if you can do that on a stand alone windows computer, but you can on a domain), all the settings (including outlook contents) should be lost when you log out. That should make things easier still. Just get the user's profile so far as to enable it to sync, make it mandatory, and then log in, sync, sync, log out, repeat.
Can you not just back up to an SD card those apps/data you want and then restore to the new advice. Not tried it, just a thought.

Hi there,
I have upgraded from WM5 to WM6 and I am running windows vista with windows mobile device center.
After the upgrade it has recognised my phone as a new device and therefore I cannot resync my contacts etc to it.
Can anyone help me as I have loads of contacts that I really can't afford to lose...
Thanks in advance
Im running vista and WMDC as well but whenever i flash even when it detects it as a new device it still syncs my contacts and everything else.
Do you have Outlook installed? Without outlook i believe it won't save any contact or calender info i may be wrong though...
yep have outlook 2007 installed
It isn't configured though - can anyone confirm if the above is true and whether it would need to be configured?

Yes. It will resync your Outlook contacts. Just make the new partnership and voila! I have deleted and repartnered my device many many times. Ever so often I backup my Outlook contacts to a CSV or XLS file.
My suggestion to you is open Outlook and export your contacts to a CSV or XLS file.
Then make your partnership!
Hi guys,
I followed a guide on here... connected then deleted all the emails off my phone etc..
But now I have no contact on msn / hotmail on my pc or my phone?!?!?!
AWESOME.
Anyway to get them back?
Thanks.
MSN Live contacts disappear.
Hi,
So sorry for this, it's has happened to me, it usually occurs when you connect your phone to PC and Sync, and by default ActiveSync is set to 'Export' so if your Outlook has no contacts, that means it exports an empty Contacts DB to your phone, in other words it deletes all your contacts off your phone, then when you connect to Windows Live and sync your contacts, again, that will further export an empty DB from your phone's contacts to your Hotmail contacts DB, which will further delete your contacts off that and that will result in losing your MSN contacts. I had to manually re-create all my contacts, it's so annoying, in the future always create a CSV file of your contacts as a backup, also the same on your phone, use a little freeware called PPC PIM Backup, to backup your contacts. To conclude you lost your contacts for good and you just need to start inputting manually, but be aware of the above in the future.
Regards,
I used my "ALLOW" list to restore the contacts...
good luck.
Been there, done that
Yep. Happened to me too. Luckily Adium had a backup of all my contacts so it asked if I wanted to add them all when I launched it after Live Messenger messed things up.
I am planning on doing a flash to WM6.
I have a HTC 8525.
Is there a way to backup my contact list before I do a flash?
PIMBackup
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=299705
It will back up your contact list, messages, phone history etc..
Wow. EXACTLY what I needed!
I personally prefer syncing w/ outlook on the computer so that EVERY time I need my contacts back (I flash a lot)(get ur mind outta the gutter ) I just sync my phone with outlook. Does appointments, tasks and emails too.
be careful when you backup your contacts
you must deactivate the encryption option in wm6 TO MAKE PIMBACKUP READ YOUR BACKUP FILE NON ENCRYPTED WITH .MENC EXTENSION

I do something similar as well. Before a ROM flash I make a copy/archive both the Outlook calendar and contacts. Then I make a small change on a calendar and contact entry on the PC and then sync (so that the PC has the latest timestamp before a synch). This avoids any possibility of 'oh crap I synched my phone with outlook and now everything is wiped out on my outlook calendar and contacts'.

Hm im using 07 as well...although its been so long i cant remember if i had to install a patch/fix or not. I'm pretty sure i didnt tho.
I did a backup using this software, and it works flawless. I just did a flash, and restored my contacts/messages/calendar......thanks.
I'm using pdaviet rom, everytime all the contacts duplicated (one contact duplicated 4-5 time). How to disable this?
I often experienced it, it because i use fallback backup from PIM backup, but after that i connect to my PC, then activesync syncronizing with it with the record from outlook, those both source duplicates the contacts...
Now i've just do backup/restore by PIM backup
Roger that. Clear!
Thanks a lot
Try this freeware to eliminate Duplicate Contacts : http://www.1800pocketpc.com/2008/06...icate-contacts-on-pocketpc-or-smartphone.html
Yeah, I went through the same issues.
When I ended up with all my contacts entered 4 times, I decided it was time to pull the pin on Outlook synch. Now I just use PIM Backup and don't have any hassles.
Personnally, as i need to synchronize with outlook, i use LBE products (http://www.lbetoolbox.com/) It is not freeware, but the demo can already help you if you do not have to long files (only act on 20 or some at a time) The advantage is that it deduplicates also outlook.
Or, do a sync before your flash for example, followed by a pimbackup (so you have also your sms,...) and sync first after.
Hope this helps
I use Jeyo Mobile Companion, it can back up contacts and sms's, Its fantastic, and takes all of 1min.
