I'm using Ricky's V24 Vanilla, which is awesome, btw, thanks! But I'd like to use Outlook Mobile and see that it's not an installed component of Office Mobile.
Since I use Outlook 2007 at home and work, I'd like to be consistent on my phone. Is there a way to install the Outlook component, or have to install all of Office Mobile?
I tried to install the version from MS, but it said there's already a newer version of Office Mobile on my phone.
Thanks!!
You can set up an email account from the phone by clicking the message button on the lower right corner and then go to setup-email... I believe this is what you are looking for right?
I did do that, but I don't think that's Outlook. that built in app seems to be simple, and plain. I'm looking for actual Outlook Mobile, for more functionality. If that is, in fact, Outlook Mobile, that's sad.
No that is not it did you try this site...

Yup, that's where I went and downloaded, then tried to install, but it said there's already a newer version of Office Mobile on your mobile device.
All outlook on your phone does is syncs the emails on your desktop outlook with your phones outlook.
You can "install outlook" when you first pick the options on active sync to sync.
I think you can add it if you right click on your profile in active sync.
Missing features in Windows Live Mobile <> Window Live Messenger alternatives?
Hi,
Why isn't Windows Mobile Live Messenger not the same as Windows Live Messenger?
A capability of video conferencing would be nice (like webcam or videoconference in Windows Live) or the other usual features (send pictures/voiceclips) but most easy is the direct envelope button to get in your hotmail via a cookie.
What's the latest version by the way and isn't there any official link to a cab or something?
If you know an alternative messenger with the above possibilities let us know!
I tested palringo, with this one I could send pictures and voiceclips...
Thanks,

it's different because the device is massively lower spec than a home or office PC and streaming video calls over the mobile network could work out very expensive for the novice users who arent expecting it...plus most devices dont have a front-facing camera yet.
you can set up a favourite in internet explorer for your hotmail to automatically login if you want
alternatively, if you've got a decent data-plan you could set it up to sync "as items arrive" which will automatically update your mobile's hotmail account with your live hotmail account ... so theres no need to log in at all
i dont think you CAN download it separately, it tends to be cooked into the roms and so isnt user-upgradeable....but you might get lucky and find a link if you use the search on this site
isn't there any other program/tool for video conferencing then?
We can always turn our P3300 and look into the cam and turn back to the front screen, better then nothing...
ateksoft's webcam plaus will turn your phone's camera into a webcam, but doesnt have any conference facilities or anything. It will just let your desktop PC use your phone as a webcam (when connected)
dont know of any program to do what you want, but someone else here might
I searched all the forums for this error. When i try to pull up hotmail on my internet browers it says that i need javascript to login in. I tried it on IE and Opera. There is some mention of it in other threads but not resolution for it. Can someone help me. I have a Tilt 2 with the stock 6.5 ROM.
has anyone else gotten this, or know how to enable javascript on the phone
I could never get Hotmail to work through Opera either. But that's what Windows Live is for -- to get Hotmail directly through the TF3D E-Mail tab.
I'm trying to get MS Communicator to work over CWA. On my iphone i can get multiple pop up windows and use communicator. But on Anrdoid web browsers i can only get one pop up window at a time. Tried Opera, Dolphin and default web broswer, but no dice. Or is there an app for MS Communicator?
UPDATE:
There's an app called "office talk" that does MS Office Communicator!
I have this problem since I start using windows mobile about 2 years ago, I asked many times, Google groups, forums, etc; nobody answered about this. Am I the only one having this problem?
In Gmail you have stars to mark messages for fallow up, on windows mobile (Outlook) you have red flags.
Why don't these two sync properly? When I star a message in Gmail I expect a flag to appear on mobile device, and the other way around too.
The only email that did this was FlexMail, but this one doesn't have finger-friendly scroll (HTC HD1).
Anyone ?
That's where the 'mobile' in WM comes in. It basically means down'watered down'.
On your phone when looking at your Gmail account, click Menu>Tools>Manage Folders. From there it should have a folder called "Starred" with a box next to it. Click the box to enable that folder. And then sync Send/Recieve on your phone and now all the messages you have Starred on your Gmail account should show up in that folder on your phone.
And if you want to mark an email from your phone as Starred, just click on the email and go to Menu>Move, and then select the Starred folder.
Hope this helps
Yes, that works, but I hoped there is a more natural way. From local device I can also move it to starred in order to place a star on remote message but doesn't seem natural or usable I don't think windows mobile 7 works different eider.
I find it frustrating that for windows mobile there is no:
- Gmail dedicated application
- Skype
- Yahoo messenger
These are all popular services/apps and all of them are available for android and iPhone.
I don't know why Microsoft doesn't care about things like these, these are things that make you switch to another system. Microsoft should make popular applications available if there are none.
I agree, there are a lot of things that Windows Mobile should have that it doesn't. This is why it is dying and Android is taking over (which will be my next phone). If people like(d) WM then they should try the new Windows Phone 7, but in my opinion I don't think it comes close to being as good as Android.
BTW, there is a Skype app for Windows Mobile, I used to have it back when I used Skype but I don't have it anymore. The only downside to it that it is no longer in development. I'm not sure where I got it from but I'm sure it can be found by doing a google search. The last version released is 3.0, I believe.
Yes, there was* a Skype for windows mobile but they said they will discontinue it and as I remember it already doesn't work anymore.
It's like they all joined forces against windows mobile /microsoft.
I refuse to believe that Skype doesn't have the technical possibilities to keep a window mobile app available. It must be some marketing thing.
the Skype application is still running....
and easy to find for download if you need it
OK, I will test it again, last time it would not connect and I know when they took it offline they said it will only work to the end of 2010.
there was some "Skype Lite" version which no longer works, but I don't know that Lite Version at all, my normal Skype version is still working.
Maybe you check your connection settings in skype once again, make sure skype is allowed to use the mobil net as well (setting ActiveSync/WLAN/Mobil)
I have a normal Skype app on my WM phone.
There is no standalone application for yahoo messenger, but there are plenty of 'all-in-one' apps too.
And my Gmail works fine, I have it synced through Microsoft Exchange as well as regular mail. I have had no issues with it. Don't seem to know why you are..
The possibilities: I have the i920 and you have i8000 or b7610???
Also, I run build 23569 (COM 5/ 6.5.5) and it's quite fine for my every day use.
AND lastly, Android is progressing the way it is, because of 'open development' and WM/WP just has a bad rep from the past, and have a lot of catching up to do. They haven't yet hit their sweet spot. I could go on, but I'll stop here.
@nickmo20 can you sync local flags with remote stars from Gmail? That was my main issue. Other sync works fine.
i don't see a problem, i have 3 accounts of gmail, 2 of hotmail, yahoo, 1 of my work... all of them work very well... for other hand skype app works fine! exist a voip program for wm, its amazing... for chat i use palringo, (msn, yahoo, gtalk, aim, gg, ichat, aol, xmpp, facebook) i can send picture, send tag voice, send file, etc...i dont have problem, just run fine
Does the flag/stars sync work?
