Hi all. I have an Artemis. I want to copy my phone contacts from Nokia E50 to it. I tried from nokia to send all contacts at once via bluetooth, but nothing. If i send contacts one by one, it works. The problem is that i have 600 contacts and probably i'll get old moving them one by one. Is there an automatic procedure?
Hi, I know how frustrated you would be at this moment but please avoid double postings.
Why don't you first sync your nokia with the pc using the nokia sync program, and then sync your Artemis with the same pc? That is the surest way to have the same set of info on both devices.
the problem is that i don't use outlook. i have it, but active sync does't syncronize my contacts. From nokia, I uploaded all contact to outlook, but i can't syncronyze the ppc

Have you put any effort at investigating why it doesnt sync?

I think another way is to copy all contacts in E50 to SIM card and put it into your Artemis. Then you can use Artemis's SIM manager to copy all SIM contacts to your phone. Hope this helps.

Unfortunately the sim may be good only for 250 entries, with the entry name truncated to 13 characters

Chances are since he doesn't normally use Outlook, then it isn't check to synchronize with it in ActiveSync.
hello mate!
i had similar difficult this morning. Copying my 200+ contacts from O2 XDA Exec to Nokia 8800 Sirro.
This is how I worked it out. [Make sure, your phones are properly connected and synchronizing with PC properly before you go ahead with this].
First synchronize your XDA with outlook, making sure, that all your contacts are copied there. MS Activesync works just fine.
Next connect your Nokia phone to PC. Open up Nokia's Synchronization Software in PC Suite. Goes with the name of "Synchronize". Open it up, and follow the directions to Restore contacts from Outlook to your phone [follow directions: PC to Phone].
I successfully moved/copied my contacts and calendar reminders from XDA Exec to Nokia 8800.
One point to be noted. A couple of my contacts on XDA had Images embedded with them. [You know where u put your girlfriend's pics] When these contacts got restored, they still had images with them. But names changed to unnamed. Had to rename them once manually. I couldnt work out the reason for this, probably something that Outlooks does not support properly.
Hope this helps.

worked for me
outlook
I syncronized them using activesync to outlook. exported tot a .csv.
imported the csv in GMAil, en sync-ed my kaiser android with that google account
Why do it easy when you can do it the hard way
I can copy the SIM contacts to phone, but i can't copy back to SIM card, any idea?
That's because android phones are supposed to sync with the cloud. Not the sim card.
Get yourself a google mail account, setup calendar online (google) then sync - look at their instructions for active sync.
Boot to androd and sync to google
works well as if like me you're running via haret then contacts and calendar stay in sync windows / android and my email too
shame it can't do tasks and sms
WHY? DO IT THE EASY WAY!!!
Go to contacts (android), press the windows button on your kaiser and select import-import from sim?
Sprite mobile
another easy way of doing that is using

My question is... how do we sync pics from facebook to the contacts? I've imported/syncd all my contacts from facebook but it won't show pics for them :-(
DJHile, if you're using my build it should sync pics, I choose 'sync with existing contacts' and it shows the pics automatically.

Poly, I am indeed using your build and used the exact same sync option as you but unfortunately, I get nothing but the android silhouette :-\
I do have quite a few contacts but none of them have a picture.
EDIT: I'm a dummy. It won't sync if I'm not getting some sort of data connection or wi-fi connection which I wasn't when I posted this... Then I installed the wifi fix update, wifi is good and somehow it fixed my cellular data connection problem also... contacts are syncing now!
i used sprite migrate to transfer my contacts...allthough it did not appear in google market so i downloaded and installed it manually...then when i opened the application in android it said that the version is expired(just downloaded from the site...)so if anyone intend to use it you just have to adjust the date 1 year ago...eg. 11/3/2009 instead of 11/3/2010...hope this helps someone...
thanx man!u have solved me problem,genius man

I had a few problems with it running vista 64bit in the end i tried all my dirrent usb ports and found that the 1's on the back worked fine but the 1's on the frontand top where being tempremental
what version did you download? I had problems with a downloaded copy so I tried the one that came on the SD card... it then connected first time.

I have a similar problem. When I boot my PC (Windows 7 x64) everything is OK, and HTC Sync works like expected. But when my PC goes to sleep and then wakes up, I cannot connect again. It also happens when I several times disconnect HTC Desire from USB cable.
I also have problem with contacts synchronization with my Google App account. No contacts are synchronized at all.

I spent quite a while mucking around trying to find out why my contacts would not synchronize with my Google account.
Check what type your contacts are on your phone. Are they SIM contacts, Phone contacts or Google contacts?
On my phone, I had everything as Phone contacts. I discovered that only Google contacts will synchronize with your Google account. But all is not lost. You won't have to type in all your contact details again.
What you do is to create Google contacts that duplicate each of your phone contacts. Just create each Google contact on your phone as an empty contact (i.e. no details) with the same name as each existing phone contact. When you see them in your contacts list, they will appear as two contacts at this stage.
Then edit either one of the two contacts. You can link each contact with another contact. If you've use the same name for your Phone and Google contacts it will already be suggesting that these can be linked together. Do so.
You will find your two contacts now appear as one in your contact list. And these linked contacts will now synchronize with your Google account contacts and carry all the details from your original Phone contact with it.
Hope this helps.
i've got by htc desire synching w/ work exchange account and googlemail contacts (ie no data on phone itself). when connected to facebook, it would only synch about 5 of the googlemail contacts, although exchange seemed to be fine.
i cleared out all the data, deleting the synch accounts and tried again. all contacts were downloaded, until... i resynched w/ facebook which removed all the googlemail contact except the same 5 or so.
i'm guessing there's some kind of data conflict, but any idea how to fix it? i kinda like having my contacts hooked up with their facebook profiles, so a fix would be good.
cheers

i have the same problem.
i have installed the HTC Sync from SD card, uninstalled ActiveSync, installed driver and so on. HTC device is recognised in Windows XP x86, HTC Sync starts on Desire, but ends up with Synchronization status: Disconnected.
It's a serious issue for me, as i have used the Outlook Calendar synchronization daily in my office.
Curiously it synchronizes the Contacts well with my Windows7 x64 at home.
Hi,
there is a "Workaround for HTC Hero Sync Problem in Windows 7" which should also work for the Desire.
As I am new user I am not allowed to post links. So google what I have set into inverted commas and it should be the first result from mydigitallife.

the Sync works in W7.
the Sync doesn't work in XP.
Phone Monitor recognizes the Desire in XP.
HTC Sync doesn't start sync wizard and says "Disconnected".
USB Debugging is turned "on" in Desire menu.
"Disk drive" option in HTC Sync 2.0.18 menu on Desire works well.
Phone is mounted as:
"Mass Storage Device" in Device Manager->USB Device Contrololers (driver version 5.1.2600.0 from Microsoft)
"MyHTC" in Device Manager->Android USB Devices (driver version 2.0.7.1 from HTC)
"HTC Android Phone USB Device" in Device Manager-> Disk Drives (driver version 5.1.2535.0 from Microsoft)
when choosing HTC Sync in desire after connecting the phone, it's installed and mounted as external drive.
Does anyone have a link where I can download the HTC Sync that comes on the SD card, I put it my own card when I received the phone so never checked the SD card for anything.

Hey all ! Questions for the lucky ones with Evos already in hand out there.
It's unfortunately mission critical to me to be able to sync my phone with my MS Outlook contacts / calendar / notes (appointments, reminders, etc) and so on. Not running an exchange server... Just need to be able to sync my Outlook personal data every night. It's a work thing, you see...
Anyone out there in the same situation and with experience to share ? How well and reliably does the HTC Sync software work, in general, and more specifically with the Evo ?
Thanks !

Well the website for HTC Synch doesn't even show it supports the EVO yet and it also shows it only supports Outlook 2000.

It doesn't only support 2000, it only says the latest version (2.0.33) supports 2000 - it previously wasn't the case.
Also, given that v2.0.33 supports the Incredible and the fact that I've read a couple times that HTC Sync actually comes with the EVO (on the SD card - EVO owners, what say you?), I don't think it's a stretch to assume it probably works with the device... All I want to know is how well HTC Sync works and how reliable & seamless the sync is; if EVO users have experience with it, then it's ideal and I'd love to hear !

You are probably right
I would also like to know this...
I use outlook 2007 and use it for my calendars, tasks, and contacts....
will this work for me? Thanks
I have the same issue and don't like the HTC sync tool. messes with other things. I sync the contact manually with Google contacts once a month. i do this with a CSV file. I then loaded Googles calendar sync app which syncs my Work outlook calendar to my Google Calendar.
I created a second Google caledar which i use as my person calendar to keep them seperate.
Not pretty but works and is not phone or brand dependant
Google Calendar has a tool on its website ( dub-dub-dub-dot google.com/support/calendar/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=89955 ) to sync with Outlook automatically. I know it does Calendar, but I'm not sure about Contacts. I'm pretty sure I've seen something for Calendar contacts.
The phone will automatically sync with your Google Calendar and Contacts.

That's great guys but I'm not looking for workarounds through Google Calendar - I don't use Calendar, or Gmail. Putting my data in the cloud would breach confidentiality agreements with clients, unfortunately. So I need to know how well the straight-up PC to phone sync works... Until now I've been with WinMo (on HTC, of course) since it just works so seamlessly (well, the synching part), but I'm way overdue for a jump to Android...

I am also making the switch from WinMo to Android, here is what I did to "sync" my contacts. I am not sure what I am going to do in the future, but mine don't change much anymore (4 years of working with outlook contacts, they are pretty up to date).
Sync'd phone with Outlook Contacts
Used PIM Backup to backup Contacts
Established OTA sync with Google (selected contacts only). This will remove contacts from phone.
Restored Contacts using PIM Backup
They then Sync'd with Google Contacts.
You might want to delete all your contacts on Google first or make sure you setup what has priority for the sync in the direction you want. Only takes about 10 minutes and ALL info is then sync'd properly.
HTC Sync 2.0.33 works fine with EVO. It can sync Outlook Contacts and Calendar items. Despite the fact HTC sync application says you can only sync Outlook 2000/2003/2007 I'm using Outlook 2010 and it works fine. Automatic/manual sync options are configurable. It's more stable than microsoft's active stink...err sync, or windows mobile device center.
on the SD card
HTC Sync 2.0.31 is included on the EVO sd card - works fine for me with contacts and calendar on Outlook 2007 - a little slower than active sync but it works and I'm happy with it.
I'm running XP
Mule
There is a new version made for the EVO on HTC website. It is version HTCSync2.0.35.
Here is the link:

Thanks everybody ! Awesome to hear that it works well, especially on 2010 - that was one of my worries, since it's also what I'm running. Sweet !
outlook 2010 beta does not synch- even w 2.0.35
running win7 64bit & office 2010 beta, outlook 2010 does not show up in HTC Synch as a application w contacts or calandar available to sysnch (will only show the built-in windows contacts app as compatible.
Someone in this forum said it works, but does not say how, also, perhaps they are using the non-beta newly released profession version only available to corp accounts right now????? (consumers can't get RTM until June 14th).
Do I wait til June 14th and hope the RTM works, or does anyone have a work-arround?
Solutions for Outlook Sync
check out the following two solutions. they are both pay to play but will allow a 14 day demo period. Companionlink is a pretty decent google sync that uses google gmail for a conduit. I was skeptical but it does a great job. Seamless with the exception of Outlook notes. It even updates all contact notes etc. Calendar and task sync through google calendar. So far works pretty good. The second program was just was released this a.m. it is from dataviz, and is called roadsync 2.0. It uses exisiting htc contact, mail interface, but uses stand alone, tasks, calendar interface. This seems pretty decent as well just not as used to going to a second program for calendar. It is about a third of the price of the companionlink alternative.
using htc sync off the memory card... syncs great with calendar and contacts of outlook 2003. Wish wish wish it had notes... but with capacitive - is there even a decent notepad app?
People hate on me all the time for this - but sometimes I miss winmo (omnia or x51V)... was a little more mature and business oriented and tied in to outlook/office:
+synced great with outlook (contacts, calendar, email, NOTES - even with audio)
+whole operating screen would to go HDTV/Projector/monitor/tv through VGA or composite
+WMV/MPG/DIVX/XVID... all seemed to just work (TCPMP love!)
+Text to speech didn't sound like Hal while boards being slowly removed...
+Speech recognition - Voice Commander was TITS!!! LOVED IT. Handsfree!
+any bluetooth Keyboard, some mice - my laser keyboard all worked great!!! HID or SPP
+windows/startup let me easily kill off any task I didn't feel was necessary...
there was no amazon MP3 or other **** that felt it NEEDED to be ready to run at any moment if I didn't want it.
+ROOT out of the box!? Sometimes I think - would people really buy a computer if it only came with user and not admin permissions? and they couldn't delete bloatware and stuff?
+SDIO/CFIO? expansion possibilities - REALLY? an SD or even mini is too big?
+CF 32GB + SDHC 32GB = 64?!?
+IR (how fun is that at sports bars and magnolia/best buy, CES?)
+Fully functioning Office - word/excel/pp ... out of the box!
+RD/TSC
+WM mediaplayer(which had it's faults) DRM ecosystem... worked... so you could do rhapsody/amazon vod and stuff...
...
OK - sorry - I've vented. I'm done. X51V love forever! 6.5.3 was sweet! Screw you Dell and MS for killing a great system.

I'm in a similar situation...
Running Win7 x64, Outlook 2010 x86
HTC Sync v 2.0.40 syncs my Outlook contacts with no problem, however I keep getting errors attempting to sync the calendar...
Unfortunately HTC Sync doesn't give me any real error message. I did a quick pass and could not locate any error logs either.
Any help? Was hoping this would be as seemless as ActiveSync/WMDC and I could avoid 2 to 3-step syncing.

Hi All,
Please can someone tell me if there's a way to export ALL my contacts via bluetooth to my old Sony Ericsson?
I take my old phone to parties because I know my DHD will get damaged. I deleted all the contacts from the Sony thinking I'd be able to export an updated copy from my DHD - but I can't!
I can do each contact one by one, but this is useless with hundreds of contacts.
Thanks very much!
Matt
Sync your DHD with your PC and then sync that with your SE. I assume you can get PC sync SW with the SE?
Dave
My last phone is k750i and I backup my contact using MyPhoneExplorer. Very recently the software (version 1.8.1) was also be made compatible with android so I believe it will solve your problem.
You will need to download the apps from the market and install a desktop version on your computer.
thanks guys.
Here's what I did (which worked)...
-Use the build in "Export to SD"
-Imported the .vcf file into a gmail account
-Exported the gmail contacts to a .csv file
-Imported that into another webmail account which has SyncML available
-Used SyncML to sync the contacts on my C905
What a ball ache haha.
Thanks again
