Does anyone know if your HTC syncs contacts to facebook, updates/ stores pictures of them on your phone and will the contact details and picture transfer to your outlook? I know this worked fine on WM but i was wondering how it works with android + sense
HTC Sync only updates the internal Phone contacts with Outlook contacts.
Having said that, the contacts you "merged" on Desire (from Facebook, Google etc) will be tagged with
Code:
<HTCData><Facebook>id:xxxxxxx/friendof:xxxxxxx</Facebook></HTCData>
in your Outlook contact notes field.
Facebook images (or other FB info) will NOT be merged into Outlook.
If you want your Outlook contacts to have Facebook profile images, there is a utility called "Outsync".

I have upgraded to mUn_2.00.SE_WWE_GPS and everything seems fine apart from the orange voicemail bug mentioned in another post.
Messenger synchronized my msn contacts onto the phone so I had 2 of each which was fine as I have all ready read about this issue.
So I updated the msn ones and started to remove the original ones from the phone.. They have a different icon
All appeared fine. It would tell me when my contacts were on line etc etc.
I then went to outlook and made sure there were no contacts in there so I could have a fresh updated list of contacts when it synced.
However these contacts will not synced. I created a test one in outlook and that synced fine to my phone. Am I missing something here??
All I want to have is the same contacts on my phone/windows live and outlook. Surely this can be achieved??
Are you using ActiveSync 4.5 already...? I suspect that might have got something to do with your issue
Do you get any error-messages at all ? Giving us some more clues....?
And very important: what version of Outlook do you run ?
more info, hope you can help now
I have it synced with 2 machine and neither work.
1 is windows XP with active sync 4.5 and outlook 2003 the 2nd is vista with the mobile device center and office 2007.
I can sync normal contacts created on the phone or in outlook it is just the ones imported from live messenger that will not copy back to my outlook contacts.
I have a feeling the phone does not recogonise these as contacts as they have a different icon from ones created on the phone. It looks like a grey folder rather than the little address card.
Please help
Hmmmzz....actually this is very interesting; i didn't dare using Live Messenger up until now just BECAUSE of the syncing of ALL messenger contacts into Outlook. Now that you report that it doesn't, the question raises if M$ has meant this to be...
Then again; did you check the settings under Windows-Live (on your Trinity)? You can go to 'options' with the right soft-key, and there are 6 setting menu's there, where you need option 2 to check the box in front of 'Contacts and Messenger'
Let me know if that worked for you...

contacts are NOT merged, but only show up in 1 list
contacts are NOT merged, but only show up in 1 list.
sim contacts
outlook contacts
msn contacts
are shown whithin the same contact browser but are not really merged.
Each contact type only syncs with it`s proper sourec, pocket outlook wit desktop outlook, msn with msn (or say "live"), and SIM contacts with SIM-import-export programs.
that's all and that's ok.
the real issue is that i find "show SIM-contacts merged yes/no" but cannot find "show msn contacts merged yes/no".
it sucks, but not really too much.

So guys
My mobile device is all trough Windows Live now.
All my contacts are in my MSN list with phone number and all.
Also installed Outlook connector so i can see my mail and contacts at Outlook.
Now the big problem is...
When u use Outlook Connector it creates a second contacs map like this example: Contacts at [email protected]
But active sync syncs with Contacts and not with Contact at [email protected]
And if i simple copy my contact from the live account to contacs it results in a copy of all contacts on my Hermes.

Any one got any idea to change this?
Thnx
Active sync will sync your outlook 2007 contacts,
Live Messenger will sync your Live messenger contacts.
Outlook connector lets you access and manage your Microsoft Windows Live Mail or Microsoft Office Live Mail accounts, including e-mail messages, calendar, tasks, notes, and contacts.
If you are using Live Mail instead of outlook 2007 active sync will not sync with Live Mail contact list.
The Desire is my first Android phone, and never used google sync to synchronize the contacts. I have 2 questiones,
1. Is the google cantacts format as same as the outlook contacts?
2. If I sync the phone contacts with outlook then sync with google's, will generate the dual same contacts in the phone?
Thanks a lot.
I ended up exporting my contacts from exchange as a .csv file then importing into my Gmail contacts so I could use the Hullomail voicemail app effectively.

can anybody help me please?
(p.s. i tryied the easy way to export CSV file from the outlook and import it on gmail but its not good and all mixed up the name and everything.. so i prefer other way)
thanks !
Isn't that a function that HTC Sync offers?
You can find it on the sd card of your phone.
I used export from Outlook and it worked fine, try using a different file type as google accepts oodles of different ones.
I don't know if it's possible with Outlook instead of Windows Mobile, but you can try.
Sync Outlook (contacts offcourse) through ActiveSync with the gmail server. (m.google.com I believe...) Then all your Outlook contacts should have been synced with gmail.
Maybe backup your contacts before trying.

Google Calendar Sync
I use Google Calendar Sync for that, works great http://dl.google.com/googlecalendarsync/GoogleCalendarSync_Installer.exe
What i mainly want is the facebook pic to show up for certain contacts in my phone. When i sync facebook, it starts syncing all contacts from facebook into my phone and putting them into my phonebook which i don't want.
Is there a way to just choose specific contacts in my phone and sync only those to facebook rather than FB syncing every single contact?
I haven't seen anything that will let you select a group of contacts to sync, but there is an option in the app "Sync with existing contacts: Sync data only about friends already in Contacts."
Hope that helps.
