Outlook Sync issue - Calendar Note Field not synci...

Hello
I recently bough a 6233.
Very happy with the phone BUT for one issue.
I work from two offices and planned to use the phone to carry meeting & appointment data between two computers (syncing both).
When I sync with outlook the large notes field at the bottom of each calendar item is not synchronised. This imho is a vital field.
Searching this forum, I have noticed quite a few others with the same problem. Has this been fixed/rectified?
Using:
Nokia PC Suite 6.82.22.0
Outlook 2003 (all the latest updates)
Win XP (all the latest updates)Message Edited by iogrady2 on 15-Jan-2007

Hi,
I am just wondering if anything has changed in the year or so since the last posting?
I have recently bought an E61i and I am seeing similar behaviour when I try synchronising with Outlook 2003. I have the latest PC suite installed.
To be more precise:
I can create a notes entry in the calendar item on my PC. It WILL sync to the E61i. But if I edit that field on the E61, it WILL NOT sync back to the PC.
Interestingly though, I can create a fresh calendar entry, put something in the description field and that will sync to the PC. I can edit that on the PC and it will sync back to the E61i. But if I then change it on the E61i it WILL NOT sync back to the PC.
Note that I can change other calendar attributes (eg the meeting time) and that always syncs correctly. It's just the notes that behave this way.
I get the same same behaviour for contacts. I can change someone's phone number on the PC or E61i and it will sync to the other. But changes to the notes field only sync from the PC to the E61i.
Lastly, the story is the same for Outlook notes.
My next step would be a remove/re-install in case something happened. (I used to be using Microsoft ActiveSync for my WM5 device - with the E61i replaced - so maybe there's something left over from that). But before I did that, I wanted to check to see if what I am seeing is expected (ie consistent with others).
Thanks

Exclude "note" field from syncing to plaxo?

Is it possible to exclude the "note" field from syncing to plaxo or google contacts? I want the names and contact information, but not the notes. I keep personal information there. Thanks!

You can uncheck songs in the Library and there is an option for your iPod to ignore them. Connect your iPod, go to Preferences>iPod>Music, tick the radio button "only update checked songs"

Sync'd contacts 'notes' field not showing in Outlook

Hey all,
Short version: Our notes fields on contacts is rarely visible in Outlook, but often shows when synced to a device.. Can someone point to something that says how to fix it, or something that says it's not supposed to do so?
Here's the longer version with details...
We use Outlook 2013 and 2010, mailboxes are hosted on our 2013 server and everything is synced via Activesync. I have a local contacts folder in Outlook that is synced to an iPhone. If I modify the Notes field for the contact on the iPhone, it
never shows up on Outlook. If I modify it in Outlook, it never shows up on the iPhone. If I modify it on the iPhone or Outlook, it shows up on an Android. If I modify it on an Android, it shows up on Outlook and an iPhone. Here's the
kicker... No matter what I modify it with, it ALWAYS shows up in Outlook Web Access.
Please keep in mind that I'm referring to a contact in a contact folder in the users' mailbox, NOT a contact from the GAL. We know the difference.
Can anyone clarify what's happening here? I've got a user who's driving me nuts about this and she's high enough in the company that this issue will never "go away" without a satisfactory explanation.
--smthng

Was this ever resolved?
I have a similar issue with my iPhone iOS7 and Outlook 2013:
1) If I add/change a note in Outlook, it will show up in the contact info on iPhone
2) If I add/change a note on the iPhone, it will SOMETIMES show up in the contact info
3) Some contacts on my iPhone have two different "note" fields, one of which does sync, and the other not.
I'm guessing the issue could be that some contacts have that second "note" field which is called something else in Outlook... but what?

IOS5/Itunes 5 sync issues - music greyed out, not syncing across

Hello,
I am having issues syncing music from iTunes to my iphone and ipad. I use autofill, but have had the same issue when using the sync all music option. All the files are listed in the music tab under the device, but half are greyed out and unplayable on the device (they are greyed out on the device too). There is a sync icon next to the files, but clicking on it does nothing.... I did a clean restore to ios5 and it copied my apps over, but none of my music, pictures etc. This is really annoying can anyone help?
IOS5 GM
Itunes 5

I have been fighting this problem with both my iPhone, my partner's, and my nephew's. It seems to have something to do with music purchased in iTunes vs. music that is ripped, since all my ripped music transfers fine and stays put.
On the other hand, downloaded content shows up doubled (one black, one grey) when I look at my music through the iTunes, just like that screen cap. As long as there's a "black copy" showing, it plays fine on my iPhone 4s, but I find I have to remove the greyed out copies manually and then manually transfer from my iTunes library or from the purchased option on the phone itself. In other words, if the music on the phone in only greyed out copies, and it's not on the phone, it doesn't transfer manually unless I first delete the greyed out versions. -- And then the greyed out versions magically reappear after it contacts the cloud and backs up.
I also sometimes end up with doubled copies, and my albums don't all sort the way they should -- so for example some Diane Schuur shows up under the artist name, and some shows up under albums. To put it all together I had to make a playlist, which is stupid.
Finally, there are some 46 items it tries to sync everytime I do any wi fi syncing of anything with my phone. I have no idea what that is.
I'm tempted to wipe and let all iTunes content be restored from the iCloud, a process that would require an overnight restore. I'm guessing that might solve the problem, but why should it all be this hard? Does Apple look at these comments, because I notice there are several different threads on this site concerning the music app and the iTunes/syncing issue?

Iphone 4 sync issue - My iTunes is not able to sync the iPhone 4. I'm using windows 7 32bit. At the first step it gets stuck refelcting backing up the phone then nothing happens for ages. I'm using the latest iTUnes version, does anyone have similar prob

My iTunes is not able to sync the iPhone 4. I'm using windows 7 32bit. At the first step it gets stuck refelcting backing up the phone then nothing happens for ages. I'm using the latest iTUnes version, does anyone have similar prob??? There are no error codes which appear and the iTUNES just gets hanged, is there a solution?

Remove the song in question from the sync list and see if the rectifies the problem.
If it does, then iTunes believes the song no longer exists on your drive and that will need to be corrected.

BB 8520 Curve Wireless Sync of Calendar and Contact not working

--- REPOST ---
BB Model: 8520 Curve
OS: 5.0.0.681
Network: Mobilink - Pakistan
Can any one help me out, how I can get wireless sync working on my BlackBerry.
I have two emails accounts setup 1. [email protected] and 2. [email protected] where mydomain.com email is also hosted on gmail. I receive emails on both account and able to send as well.
None of these account contact and calendar are being sync. Previously when GoogleSync app was available I was using that, since Google has discontinued this app, so I have removed the app.
In calendar on device, I can see both the calendars and Wireless Synchronization: YES, but no update in either side i.e. If I create any entry on mobile it doesn't show on web or any new entry on web, doesn't show on device.
Very Important: If I access setup on device I don't see Contacts and Calendar under syncronization, however both options are visible if I use https://mobilink.blackberry.com/ to setup/edit email.
Looking forward your expert advise to solve this issue.
Thanks

Disappearing Contacts, Mobile Me Sync Issues, Calendar crash-Answers??

I'll try to keep this post brief but hopefully it will help provide some possible answers for frustrated users experiencing the random complete wipe out of all contacts and calendar data when syncing with mobile me using either push or fetch. After several weeks of experiencing these random sync issues and spending several hours over several days between tech support calls with iPhone then Mobile Me support and then finally a genius bar appointment where the genius said he didn't have a clue and simply offered to replace my phone.
The next morning, SAME PROBLEMS... and through it all NO ONE could tell me why my sync was so randomly unreliable. Every other day for no apparent reason, my phone would suddenly lose all contacts and/or calendar data. (A few thousand contacts and two years of calendar data). It was both frustrating and strange—even stranger that Apple techs had no clue why and seemed to think no one else was having this issue.
I tried everything - complete restores, resets, deleting and re-adding the mobileme account, etc., etc., etc. One tech support person finally said, "good luck..." The others kept handing me off the higher levels of support... until finally they just said "we don't know why this is happening." I was waiting for someone to just say, "Look, we have issues with mobile me, so hang in there and eventually it will work." I can be patient and I still think the iphone is the greatest invention in recent years. But everybody I talked with at Apple seemed to think this should be working flawlessly.
I also started having a crash on the calendar anytime I tried to see the list view for "all calendars." This was frustrating because that's the best feature of the calendar app!
I was prepared to just return to syncing with my computer and wait for the software to improve between the phone and mobile me. Finally, last night I tried a few things that seem to be working... and for the first full day, mobile me is actually useful to me today. (my fingers are crossed!)
Here's what I did.
1. I minimized the number of calendars I was syncing - I have no idea if this affected the sync, but I was syncing eight calendars, now I'm down to four. (You can easily export a calendar and import those events back into a different calendar.)
2. I did a complete restore of the phone (not from a back up) and the VERY FIRST THING, I added mobile me and synced only the calendar (set to push.) This cleared up the random calendar crash in list view and also mobile me was pushing data rather reliably. After a few moments my entire calendar was on the phone and worked perfectly. New events were transferred quickly back and forth.
3. I then chose to sync my contacts through the computer rather than over the air. I fear that the contact sync was somehow messing up the whole communication process between the phone and the cloud. Someone suggested that the number of "groups" in contacts might have an impact on the sync issues as well. I didn't need my contacts to sync with the urgency of "push" so this works for me. Plus I have a lot of contacts and it's just faster over the cable.
4. I then GREATLY reduced the number of apps on my phone. I originally had about 27 and I only reinstalled 9 of them. I did this ONE AT A TIME - starting with the most necessary and useful... and after each install, I checked the functionality of the calendar and mobile me. No problems. Perhaps I was having an app conflict?
5. Then I reinstalled the rest of my content - music, podcasts, photos. Still no problems.
ONE of these steps actually worked, and I'm not sure which one. My guess is that one or more of my apps was conflicting in some way. OR possibly something with the contact sync... but for the last 24 hours the mobile me calendar sync using push has been consistently reliable and useful. (for the record, mobile me email has always worked perfectly for me.)
No one with tech support ever suggested to me that I could be having an application conflict or any other problems with calendars or contact groups, etc. I've spent many hours on this the past few weeks... and for the first time, my iphone seems to be working with mobile me correctly.
In reading many of these posts, it seems a lot of others are having similar problems... so hopefully these suggestions might be helpful. If you have any thoughts as to which of these solutions was the correct one, I would be interested in hearing your opinion.
Thanks!

Are your Address Book contacts and iCal calendars/calendar events on your Mac synced with your MobileMe online address book and calendar?
When you say this data is not synced with your iPhone, none of your MobileMe online data is transferred to your iPhone, or after the initial transfer of this data to your iPhone when you first turned contacts and calendars for over the air syncing with your MobileMe account on your iPhone, the data is not kept synchronized with the MobileMe "cloud"?

Note field not synchronized in .mac

I cannot find how to include the IMPORTANT note field in the agenda on .mac.
Am I blind?
Thanks for any input
MacBook Pro Mac OS X (10.4.9)

HI there,
Nope, definitely using acrobat reader - preview doesn't open the file at all.
I did some further testing. If I edit the file using a mac the formatting is incorrect - if I then take it over to the PC the file formatting remains incorrect until I re-edit the fields - then it formats correctly. Finally, if I take this same file back into the mac the type is rendered correctly... unless I re-edit the fields and then it formats incorrectly.

Can Sync Apps, Calendars, Contacts But Not Music/Video

Hi all,
I have been syncing my iPhone 4 (iOS 4.2.1) very nicely with my iTunes 10 for a while now. New apps get reflected on iTunes, as do calendars and contacts. However, today, I tried to click 'Sync all Music' on iTunes and I am told that I have synced my iPhone to another library and then I had to erase and sync everything. I gather that that message means everything on my iPhone will be gone, which is obviously not something I want. Strangely, I have all my music in my iPhone.
I suspect this came about a few months ago when I tried to sync the iPhone with another computer. That worked to some extent, and then I switched back to my iMac. But by then I had updated the firmware to iOS 4.2.1 and started on a clean slate, so to speak. That probably explains why I have all my music on my iPhone. So it is very curious that I can sync my apps and not my music.
So my question is - are my apps being backed up nicely? If they are, I am willing to live with this situation until I get a fresh iPhone 5 and then sync everything afresh.
Appreciate any comments, thank you.

I believe you may see this warning if you had your iPhone set to manually manage music and you change it to sync. When you do, I don't believe it does much other than check to see if there have been any changes to the list of media to keep on the phone since the last sync.
I could be wrong... but I believe this is the case.

Sync Issue: 4 Items could not be synced. See iTunes for more information.

I can't get rid of the four grayed out songs that show up under music on my iPhone through iTunes.
Here's the situation:
In my iTunes library on my computer I only have the one song: Lake of Fire.
When I look on my actual iPhone only that song shows up.
But on iTunes when I look at the music section of my iPhone I see those four grayed out songs and the one song I actually have.
I tried re downloading each of those songs, but when I do it doesn't get rid of the grayed out one, only makes another one that works like the Lake of Fire song.
I've tried to manually manage my music and delete them manually, but when I re-synced they would come back.
I have also tried solutions posted that are supposed to fix my problem but they don't.

Were they purchased with the SAME Apple ID you have registered the phone with?

Outlook Mail + Contact + Calendar folders change after sync

I use Outlook and after sync with my iPhone my Favorite Folder list changes. The Calendar and Contact folder names appear in Favorites (not there before) and cannot be deleted by right click and selecting "Remove from Favorite Folders". I found that by rebooting my computer the two folder names disappear but so do all my folders I added to my Favorites list. The only ones remaining are the default ones; Inbox, Outbox etc. I have to then select and add the additional ones I require. Also, when I now click the Calendar button I see only the three month calendar on the left pane and the day calendar on the right pane...with no other options available and when I click the Contact button I get the Calendar choices and if I click one of those choices the Calendar button light up.
To access my Contacts I have to right click the Contacts button and select "Open in New Window". If I do the same with the Calendar button I get the same Calendar window as just by clicking the Calendar button.
Has anyone experienced this problem? How can I fix it?
This happens each type I sync. All the contact info and appointment info sync OK to the iPhone.

Hi,
I activated Exchange sync for contacts and also Mobile Me sync for Address Book in the first phase when I started to use my iPhone 3G. So I didn't lost any local contacts on my phone. Both Exchange and Mobile Me work on my phone simultaneously.
I can put Mobile Me sync off and those contacts will disappear from my phone. And when I re-connect Mobile Me, contacts sync fine back to my phone.
I have minor problem though, Exchange sync works fine from my phone to server and vice versa. But Mobile Me seems not to work from Address Book to Phone. When I do this disconnect - reconnect workaround I can get the results I'm looking for, but it's not that user-friendly and "it's only working"-type procedure to do.
Any ideas where could be the problem?
