Hello, my company uses Domino Mail Server and has set up Notes Traveler to sync with mobiles. Is there any way to use the Desire's integrated ActiveSync with this? When I configure the Server, after the screen that lets me choose what to sync (Email, calendar, contacts) I get an Error message that tells me to try again later. Is there any way to use this, Nitrodesk Touchdown works, but I hate how it only shows the calendar and mails within the app and not in the Phones calendar.
Thanks for your help!

Looks like traveler for Android is close:
"IBM June 17 released the beta version of its free Lotus Notes Traveler for Android application to let Lotus Notes customers access e-mail, calendar and contacts from an Android 2.0 or later device. The app will work for the Android 2.1-based Motorola Droid, Nexus One, HTC Droid Incredible and HTC Evo 4G. IBM also said its next version of Lotus Connections social software will support Android"

Unfortunately my work uses Notes as well, and I have a Desire. Can anybody get hold of this beta?
not that easy

I was looking for it to but i found out that the server u connect to have to run a beta to for the android beta to work, and have to have a IBM login to bee able to sign up for the beta.
I wont be able to get m company to run a beta server just for me so i have to wait until i can use my deisre insteed of my "work phone"
Yeah I just read that too. There are about 5 Desire users at my work, so hopefully we might see it soon.

Heh. I'm sensing no. We have 800 people working in our location, and about 6 of us have a Desire. There's no way a corporation is going to put everyone through a beta program for the benefit of 0.2% of their employees (and thank God for that, seeing how I do tech support and I'd have to be the one to clean up the mess!)
Sorry
We have used Commontime software for some years with Notes - works well on Android, Windows Mobile, Symbian.

We have the beta traveler server installed (separate from our IBM iseries domino server) and it works OK. It's still a separate app for calendar and mail. Nitrodesk has many more features and is preferred by our beta testers (IT staff).
Hmm they have just updated to 8.5.2.0 on the traveler server at work.
Calendar and contacts and mail are fully integrated with my Android (htc desire)
I have no traveler client... one problem though... when opening mail, the email client crashes.... everything else works. I can list their mails and mapps but not open any mail.

Widget.
Couldn't someone make a Widget for Traveler . atleast the calendar
Hi everyone,
I have been tinkering around with WAD and havent decided on what theme to make. Currently I'm working on Windows XP theme, but I wanted to do something a little different. I thought it would be great to implement an exact replica of yahoo messenger interface (easily done with docks and images for the GUI), but the problem which is stopping me is the communication with the yahoo server to receive realtime messages and status. Was wondering, does anybody know how to do this and would it be legal? I don't think it would be legal though due to copyright issues regarding the images etc. I'm talking an exact replica of the messenger ported to windows mobile but this would be an 'always on' version part of the homescreen/ desktop page when the phone starts up. I'm pretty certain it's possible, but doubt it would be able to be distributed to the public without a license from yahoo messenger. Only other way round it would be to distribute it with out the images and let people add the images themselves.
What do you think? Is it a good idea?
I don't have a WP7 phone and am wondering about the calendar. Is it true that if you have google or windows live calendar you can only sync one calendar? I have multiple calendars set up (personal, business, wife etc.) and want to know if a WP7 phone could be set up like this.
Thanks
At the moment, WP7 will only sync your default calendar from each account. So you can't directly access subscribed calendars etc... I would imagine this will be fixed in an update as it simply doesn't make sense to allow subscribed calendars in outlook, windows live etc... and NOT on the phone!
Yes it doesn't allow other shared calendars to be viewed but it seems even on the iPhone it's not possible (not sure about that though). So it may be that only Android has this function for Google Calendar.
What I do is to have a live tile that leads me straight to the mobile version of Google Calendar that would allow me to view everything from the browser.

That’s pretty rubbish.
So if I’ve two Windows live Calendars – say Appointments & sports – I can only add one..
The Windows Phone 7 developers must really have no lives to omit this function. They probably don’t even use Windows Live.
I suspect Microsoft employees would have their own in-house calendar software. If I were the big boss I’d insist all employs use Windows Live. I’m sure that’d motivate them to fine-tune their products.
FYI – I use nuevasync on my Windows ‘Mobile’ to access my iCal through Goggle Calendar (though gCal has been particularly unreliable lately).

there was a rumor going around that it would be fixed up in the first update... but who knows. we'll just have to wait and see.
I Why would you need separate calendars when you can assign different colors to the accounts? I have both my work and personal calendar on my Surround. Work shows up in red and personal is blue.
I do not have a Google calendar but I would think you would be able to sync it too.

ummm your question is kind of ironic
you question the point of having seperate calendars (within 1 account) by suggesting a method that's more tedious (having separate calendars in separate accounts.)
windows live/hotmail allows multiple calendars, you can work on the same calendar and just list them under the diff calendars....isn't that more convenient than maintaining 2 different calendars across 2 accounts?
DOH! I misread the "or". I thought he meant he had 2 serperates and was worried he couldnt sync both to his device.
Anyone know if NuevaSync is working on Windows Phone 7 syncing?

Yep. Sure is.
1. However, it’s no longer free. The basic subscription is 15 bucks a year – which isn’t much.
2. In the ‘email & account’ settings – Nuevasync (listed as gmail) prefers to be set to download new content ‘as item arrives’, or manually.
I initially had it set to download every hour, but it kept saying ‘unable to complete sync’ or something like that.
While Nuevaync works fine, I’m thinking of transferring to Windows Live calendar as my main calendar. Google Calendar has been unreliable – especially with iCal feeds. It’s displaying my iCal feeds in GMT time zone (a known issue) & it screwed up all my recurring appointments for some unknown reason.
Windows Live Calendar lets you mark events as private, which hides events if the calendar is shared – a must have feature for me.
Of course it would be nice if WP7 supported iCal feeds directly. But as I’m learning with WP7 – you make do. Compared to MinMo 6.1, I’m prepared to cut it a lot of slack because it’s just so damn nice to use.
P.S. – if anyone knows a way of incorporating an iCal feed into a default Windows Live calendar that would be great. And I’m not talking about downloading the feed & then importing it into the calendar. I’m talking about a cloud sync i.e. iCal event to WL calendar in real time. But I suspect this isn’t possible.

Funny you say that, because that's exactly what I'm looking for: a cloud based iCal (MobileMe) <--> Windows Live solution. Though I'm sure no such animal exists. I thought Google calendar could work as an intermediary, but that's looking doubtful as well. Apparently when Apple went full CalDAV last Fall, they stopped allowing change access outside their own internal product.
It's not looking good currently for a cloud based calendar sync solution if my wife and I want to have differing phone platforms when MobileMe is involved. Ah Apple...
Syncing stuff over multiple platforms a recipe for a nightmare. Especially anything that involves plugging in a USB. I tried with Outlook, but ended up with appointments doubling etc.
Can anybody tell me, if there are a change with the above problem? at this time, you can only sync to the main calendar of any account (Google, Exchange, Windows Live). But any of this, can support multiple calendars/account in the webview or in Outlook to. Only WP7 does not support this. Are there any news, if this is supported in a future update? NoDo, Mango or a Update before Mango?
A workaround could be syncing categories (and categorie colors) via Exchange, but this isnt also supported at this time. Very anoyying.
i would be happy, if a WP7 Developer can give me some Hints about the development belonging to this, but i have no real hope.
No news that I know of, but you can count on it being implemented at some point. They know they will need it, and WM has it. Their business users will need it for sure, but I doubt that is a priority at the moment. MAYBE towards the end of the year? Next year would be my guess.
NoDo here and there's no multiple calendar....
I too would like this functionality, but it won't be in Nodo. I suspect it will come in one of the "frequent" updates MS say they will be putting out between Nodo and Mango.
I don't remember my old WM phones can do this either. So, it's maybe one of the limitations of EAS.
I hope for one of the updates. In WM 6.5 you have categories. for my needings a better alternative as multiple calendars. bute the categories need to be colored to...
I saw recently that Nueva Sync (the cloud sync service) had a good take on the issue and how they deal with it... or better, how they "make do" with the API MS offers currently.
Does anyone know if Microsoft talked about this at MIX 2011 this week?

It's not a limit of Exchange ActiveSync, and yes Exchange Allows Shared/Multiple Calendars and Windows Mobile supports them.
I used that functionality on my HD2 (Private and Public Calendar, for example).
Hello,
I'm the new Lumia 900 owner. I was with Android for 4 years so I'm quite confuse now in WP territory and would like to ask some questions about it.
1. How to disable auto-rotate?
2. Is it possible to change the search engine from Bing to Google?
3. Is there a similar application for WP?
- Browser: Chrome, Opera, Firefox? Alternative: UC Browser.
- File Manager: Estrong? Not until we have a custom ROM.
- Social Networking: Instagram? Alternative - Fhotoroom (not tested it yet).
- Security: RSA Secureid? No RSA for WP.
- Email: Gmail, Lonelycat? Default app is good enough.
- Backup: MyBackup pro?
- Tweaking: ROM Control, ROM Toolbox? Not until we have a custom ROM.
- Remoting: MyMobiler?
- IM: Gtalk?
Will apps for WinMo works in WP? No.
How do I install apps in WP? Not until we have a custom ROM.
4. I found that the Outlook unable to show other folder's email beside Inbox. Is there any further configuration needed? Fixed.
5. Is it possible to define the sync period and method individually per folder? N.A
6. How do I export the call logs, SMS/MMS from Android and then import it to WP? Have to find out further.
7. Is there a way to make the notification pop up on the screen rather than display the count on the tiles? Found that only FB notification will appear on top, other notification like outlook email, gmail won't show.
8. I have the data and wifi active at the same time, which one is the WP using? How do switch off the data? Use Toggle.
9. How do I browse my files from the phone and from PC? Not until we have a custom ROM.
10. Is there such thing like a custom ROM? Waiting!
11. I read that Lumia 900 not entitled for WP8 upgrade? What's great about WP8?
Many thanks.
lol, you are going to be one seriously disappointed Lumia owner, Most of what you have asked is only possible with a custom ROM, Guess what? There aren't any at present, Win Mo apps will not work on WP7, Gmail is easy to setup by adding an email account, You can easily link inboxes, You can switch off data in settings/network, Lots of threads lurking around on the features of WP8, WP7 phones will not be getting an update to WP8 but rather an update 7.8 which includes the new start screen from WP8.

Hi Mate,
Thanks for responding. I think I will wait for a moment until someone manage to hack it and provide a custom ROM =)
I already got some of the answer to the apps so yeah, let's see.
