How to force contacts/calendar to save on memory card - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General

I have an extensive address book and calendar. When syncing to my pc (Outlook & Windows 7) I am always getting a "not enough memory" (regardless of which rom I use). I have an 8gb memory card that I would like to utilize to free up some main memory. Any thoughts on how to do this (and yes I have searched)?

Any 3rd Party Software to Save Contacts to Storage Card??

Understood that contacts, by default, have to be saved in the internal memory. I wonder if anyone knows a third party software that enables me to save contacts to storage card.
I got more than 5000 contacts, my 8525 internal memory cannot handle that much data. Yes, I understand I can do a mess delete or group the contacts into different categories. These are my next step IF I cannot find a good contact management software.

Thanks, but I am not talking about backup. My Hermes does not have enough memory to handle 5000 contacts.

Contact Storage taking up all phone memory

The title says it all, i have just hard reset my phone, installed no apps and already am getting a low memory notification
If i sort my applications by size it shows that the largest is 'contacts storage' which is currently taking up 70mb
the second largest application is google maps which is 5mb...
i only have about 10 contacts and then the rest is synced via facebook where about 50 email addresses have been added.
is this right?

Activesync entire mailbox possible to SD with Android 2.2?

Hi,
I am using Leedroid 1.5 ROM.
I am looking for a way to sync my entire Exchange server mailbox with Active sync approx. 2Gb of data.
Can this be done since I am able to install applications to SD with this ROM?
Regards Himzo
Its not possible. With Activesync, the protocol allows a maximum of 1 month's mails.
Is it possible to store Exchange mail on your SD card ?
Even a month's worth of email for me is huge and eating into phone storage.
Hi,
I do not agree. The protocol do allow for unlimited amount of sync. I´ve done this on other devices such as iPhone.
Also there is an option on the Desire to sync all.
However I have only found how to store attachments to external storage which is SD. This can be done under settings for activesync.
Regards Himzo

[Q] DoubleTwist and Missing Sync for Android will not sync all of music

Hi guys,
I wonder if anybody can shed some light on a problem I seem to be having with my HTC Desire, which recently replaced my IPhone.
I am trying to sync my ITunes library to my HTC desire. The library, with all the playlists, is approximately 7GB in total.
I purchased a Sandisk 16GB Micro SD Card (not the EBay type) and attempted to sync my music with missing sync for Android. There are approximately 900 songs in the library but only 400 or so sync. Here's the strange part. Although 400 songs sync, not all are playable by MixZing or TuneWiki on the handset. So I looked through the SD Card on Mac and Windows and all 400 songs appear to be there, with the correct extension and all, but they won't play on ITunes on the Mac. When I try to play the songs on Windows Media Player I get a message saying the file type does not match the format, or something along those lines.
I thought it might be Missing Sync for Android with the problem so I tried DoubleTwist and I got the same error. DoubleTwist synced about as many songs and folders from my ITunes library. Strangely however, some of the folders on the SD Card when viewed on Windows Explorer or the Finder are empty. There are shed loads of folders but no songs inside them.
I thought it might be the SD Card so I returned it and bought a 32GB Kingston SD Card. Again, the same problem.
I'm running Android 2.2 on the HTC Desire unrooted.
Strangely, the capacity on the SD Cards seems to be reduced by about 4GB so the songs may be there but are corrupted in the transfer process - I guess.
Anyone have any ideas it would be much appreciated as this is really disappointing.
Thanks
No on ehave any idea I take it?
Hi, you can check out SyncMate - it can sync your Android devices and Mac (Contacts and Calendar are syned for free, iTunes, iPhoto, folders and backup option are available in Expert Edition).
If you want to sync iTunes, just connect your Android phone in a flash drive mode to your Mac and sync it as if it is a common USB drive. So, once your device is connected - you can sync musiс from Mac to Android and vice versa. If there is enough space in your Android device and tracks are all in the same format - they will be synced. Details about Android sync you will find here http://mac.eltima.com/sync_mac_android.html

Q: How do I sync "Notes" into device?

For many years, I have been a user of “notes” in WM devices. I now have accumulated quite a list of them and I use them routinely. They have always resided on an SD card which I swapped when I changed devices.
Has anyone discovered a way to get these “notes” into the new devices? A cloud-based solution is certainly acceptable for transfer of the data, but not for storage. I require device-based storage for almost everything as I spend a lot of time removed from any source of connectivity.
Thanks!
At the moment, there currently is no way to sync files other than media (photos, music, videos, podcasts, which are sync'd through the Zune software).
You can however, store your file online (such as through SkyDrive), and then download them using the phone's web browser. When you download files from the web, they certainly get stored somewhere, but since there is no file browser, you can't browse to a directory and tap the file to start it. For example, when you load a PDF file from the web on your phone, it gets downloaded somewhere, but if you decide to look at the PDF again in the future, you can only access that from the Adobe Reader app, where it gets listed until you decide to remove it.
That being said, I don't think that Windows Phone supports the old Windows Mobile Notes files though, so I'm not sure how you would view them on Windows Phone 7.
An alternative would be to convert over to OneNote and use the online syncing capability (which rocks). Create your notes on your desktop, online, or on your phone and they can automatically stay in sync with each other.
I am not quite sure if you mean this but if you go to office then onenote and then press all you can sync them.
I only used office 2010 for some months, but I think you can create a online link and connect it to your phone.
The data is stored on the phone and if you edit something it will be synced the next time if you are online.
I hope i helped as i am not quite sure myself and I am waiting to get office 2010.

It's pretty easy to set up skydrive to sync with OneNote on your phone. I used cut and paste on my pc to copy my notes from Outlook to OneNote on my browser (skydrive), then synced the phone. Now any changes to the notes - made either on the web app or the phone - get synced automatically. Very convenient after all the initial copying.
another vote for oneNote, the default notbook works great, in system settings go to applications > onenote and slide the sync slider, they'll give you more info, read it, they won't tell you again.
I also setup a second notebook to share with a business partner on my PC, the link showed up in my ME tile, I clicked it out of curiosity, now it's synced too!
+1 for one note, a very convenient solution, not something i had used before now, but i am becoming increasingly reliant on it!
