ActiveSync: Email and Calendar OK, No Contacts

I setup activesync on my Droid 2.  Calendar and Email work great.  The Contact categories come over, but the Contacts themselves didn't come over after six hours.  I removed the account and started over.  Same result.  Any suggestions?

What is TD?

I called VZW and they transferred me to Motorola support.  They told me; "At launch, Motorola DROID's native exchange solution doesn't support password security policy or remote wipe."  They also referred me to this site for instructions on how to configure and exception on your Exchange server if you have authority to do that.  https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/39440/related/1/session/L2F2LzEvc2lkL2Z2QUJkdDdr/p_country_code/US
In the meantime, i am just using TD which they even suggest using on this site.  I hope this is not the anticipated fix because I don't think many companies are going to allow this.

  • Select only email and calendar to sync (not contacts)

    Is there any way to get Versamail/activesync to only sync email and calendar (not contacts) to an outlook server? I want to manage contacts with Palm Desktop through hotsync and get email and calendar wirelessly on my Centro. I have too many contacts (~4K), so sync'ing to Outlook wirelessly fails.

    Indeed. I have a slightly different, but perhaps even more common challenge. I use IMAP and Snappermail for all of my mail, because it supports a number of security modes upon which I insist. There's no way to get Versamail to ONLY sync Calendar and Contacts information without also pulling down at least headers for a bunch of mail about which I already know and wouldn't read in Versamail anyway.
    If someone enters the ActiveSync middleware market for PalmOS (sorry, I haven't gotten used to saying "Garnet" yet)  the way Markspace did with The Missing Sync for Macs, they'll be heroes.

  • Yahoo Email and Calendar will sync to my iPhone, but Contacts will not.  Selection for "Default Account" doesn't even show in the Contacts section within Settings on the iPhone.

    I have always had my Yahoo Email, Calendar and Contacts synched to my iPhone.  However, I noticed some Contacts weren't synching from the Yahoo account to my iPhone, so I thought if I just deleted the Yahoo account and added it back, I'd be fine.  That worked fine for my Email and Calendar, but now I have NO Contacts from Yahoo on my iPhone.  When I go to Settings, under Contacts, it doesn't even have the option for 'Default Account.'  Help!

    Hello Marsha,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    It's not clear exactly what you're trying to accomplish here.  If you're wanting to set up SMS forwarding introduced in iOS 8, then please follow the directions below.  Also, your Apple ID should be an email address.
    To use Continuity for SMS and MMS with your iPhone and your Mac, iPad or iPod touch
    Your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch need to use iOS 8.1, and your Mac needs to use OS X Yosemite.
    Sign in to iMessage on your iPhone, your other iOS devices, and your Mac using the same Apple ID.
    On your iPhone:
    Go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive > You Can Be Reached By, and add a check to both your phone number and email address.
    Go to Messages > Text Message Forwarding, and enable the device(s) you would like to forward messages to.
    Your Mac, iPad, or iPod touch will display a code. Enter this code on your iPhone to verify the SMS feature.
    Connect your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Mac using Continuity - Apple Support
    Take care,
    Alex H.

  • How do I automatically sync outlook contacts to iphone contacts? My email and calendar does this but even though in settings I have the contacts ON it does not.

    How do I get my outlook contacts to automatically sync to my iphone 5? In settings I have it set up to do so BUT it does not. My email and calendar updates every 1/2 hour but I can't get my contacts to auto update. Please advise.

    Start with your finger at the bottom of the screen (about even with the home button) and swipe in an upward motion.  There should be a row of icons at the top of a grey field.  if the quarter-moon icon is bright white, tap it.  If it was (and still is) dark, take the iPhone in to be evaluated by a qualified technician.

  • I just got a new iPad 2 and I have lot of questions. I was able to wirelessly link my iPad and iTunes on my PC. I was able to SYNC my email and calendar (new only no history), however I have not been able to SYNC Outlook contacts.

    I just got a new iPad 2 and I have lot of questions. I was able to wirelessly link my iPad and iTunes on my PC. I was able to SYNC my email and calendar (new entries only no history), however I have not been able to SYNC Outlook contacts. Outlook has multiple contact lists. Only one has any data. I can't find a way to delete the others and I can't keep the one I want to use at the top of the list. Any ideas?
    I have a question about email. I have several thousand emails in 10 or so days. How can I select multiple emails for deletion in stead of one at a time? How do I designate emails from a given sender as junk or block certain senders?
    Ron

    the spcs page on this site state which video formats the ipad supports
    I'd suggest converting your old videos to one of those formats
    handbrake is a free program which does this for you
    itunes used to be able to too when I right clicked incompatible media but don't see the option any more
    or maybe it only show when one right click incompatible media and currently my lib don't have any
    about the music then it's odd what formats are they?
    if they are acc protected have you tried to remove the DRM this can be don using itunes as
    apple don't use DRM for music any more

  • ICloud backup; can I back up contacts without email and calendar?

    Hi,
    I have ported my iPhone from my old work to my new workplace. I've backed up all my contacts to iCloud. When work added my new email account, I lost all my contacts. When I restored them from the cloud, I lost my new work email. How do I restore my old contacts, and keep my new email and calendar?
    Thanks
    Pastel.

    Hi Brendan. Thanks for your clue but unfortunately that did not solve the problem. Prior to posting my query I had already checked out the article you're referring me to (whose URL is http://support.apple.com/kb/PH3605). It may well be that I'm not being crystal clear owing to my far from perfect English but the whole point is precisely that I'm not able to import contacts  which ALREADY appear on my iPad - being the outcome of syncing my remote MS Exchange account with the device - into iCloud. The procedure described in the quoted article simply doesn't work (for that matter, no such Setting sign pops up under ICloud contacts). In fact, it appears that the only contacts which I'm able to keep under iCloud are those which I directly create from scratch within iCloud Group itself. Since I'm likely to have my MS outlook account  ( which is mirrored into a MS Exchange one for remote usage) forcibly deleted in one month time or so, I started  worrying about how to keep my contacts alive/ intact after that deletion. Hope the issue got clearer now ... Cheers, Piero.

  • What software other than outlook can I use with iphone 5c for contacts, email and calendar?

    What software will work with iPhone 5c where I can manage all contacts, emails and calendar and sync with my business desktop computer? From what I have seen from co-workers Microsoft outlook and iPhone doesn't work well together.

    But the problem is, that it Did used to do this. It synced for a year and a half and now only in the past four months has it not synced...
    Any thoughts?

  • IPhone 3G Email and Calendar times off by one hour (slow one hour)

    My times which I send/receive emails or put appointments on the calendar are 1 hour slow as compared to my computers. I have Mobile Me and Mobile Me (on the computer) and my Outlook emails and calendars match and my current time is correct on all. On the IPhone 3G the current time is correct but the time a email is sent or received and all appointments on the calendar are both off by one hour (one hour slow on the IPhone 3G).
    I have set time automatically in "settings" to on, and under "email contacts and calendar" I have time zones disabled. I have tried each possible combination of these settings but cannot get the email/calendar times to match between my computers and the IPhone 3G regardless of how these are set.
    I have numerous computers and all times are correct on all. On the IPhone 3G the current time (the clock) is correct, but times in emails and calendar appointments are all off (slow) by exactly one hour no matter what I do.
    Anybody else have this issue, and/or know what the solution might be?
    Thanks
    The Omega

    I have tried that and it did not work. I am now trying it with everything set to enable DST, and see if that works. Everything, so far, seems to be in sync. The phone would be right for a second when you went into the calendar and then change to be an hour off. Strange. I think the settings I have now (all, Windows, MobileMe, and the IPhone 3G set to DSL on, the same) may be working. Only time will tell.
    Thank you.

  • How to add iCloud email and calendar to Outlook 2010

    Is there a way to connect my iCloud email and calendar to a pst file that is not my default Outlook pst file?  I don't use the default pst file because I was having some problems with it and have set up a new pst file.
    I use Outlook 2010 (on a PC) and haven't been able to sync with iPhone5 and iPad. 

    Howdy Ron,
    Take a look at the article linked below, it will walk you through downloading iCloud for Windows and syncing iCloud information like contacts and calendars to Outlook on your PC.
    Set up and use iCloud for Windows

  • Error updating RSS feed, email and calendar

    About 2 weeks ago my Droid X running Gingerbread, stopped updating RSS feeds, email and calendar but other apps/widgets seem to work fine.
    If I go in to the RSS feed and try to subscribe to a new feed I get the following error message, "Can't add news subscription now. Try again later."
    Also noticed that Check for update gives "Check for update is not available at this time. Try again later."
    My thought was to try to manually reinstall Gingerbread.  Followed instructions found on other forum sites but when trying to reload GB from recovery I get the following error:
    "Installing update...
    assert failed: file_get.prop("/system build.prop", "ro.build.fingerprint") == "verizon/shadow_vzw/cdma_shadow/shadow:2.2.1/VZW/23.340:user/ota-rel-keys, release-keys" || file_getprop("/system/build.prop", "ro.build.fingerprint") == "verizon/shadow_vzw/cdma_shadow:2.3.3/4.5.1_57_DX5-18/110410:user/release-keys"
    E:Error in /tmp/sideload/package.zip
    (Status 7)
    Installation aborted."
    I am trying to avoid a factory reset of the phone but would appreciate any help/suggestions that anyone has.

    Hello tjoreilly,
    Thanks for providing your experience on refreshing the RSS feeds on your device. Based on the information you have given and what Cody21 previously stated, I recommend as factory reset also. Before doing a reset, I suggest verifying that your contacts are saved on Gmail and/or backup assistant and calendars are backed up on your Gmail account. This is  to ensure that your personal info can easily be restored after the factory reset. Any digital media, like pictures and videos, will be saved on your memory card & won't be erased unless you wish to do so.
    Once the reset is done, try to access and update your RSS feed to your preference to confirm that the issue is resolved. If so, please respond to this posting so other can benefit from your experience. If not, then feel free to elaborate on your experience after the reset so we can further assist. 
    Thank you...

  • Email and calendar update error Nokia C7-00

    there is an email and calendar update and when i tried to do it my phone nokia c7-00 restarted and the update wasnt done and tried over and over again and the same issue still as it is

    Hi Islam_Mohamed,
    Thank you for posting. 
    Before the phone restarts, do you get any error message when trying to update the calendar and the email? Are these updates for the email or calendar apps, or just for their contents? Aside from these two apps, are you able to download the updates for the other apps if there are any? It would be easier for the community to answer your query if you can provide more details about it.
    We'll wait for your response. 

  • My company loaded profiles onto my iPad for email and calendars.. There is also a signing certificate and a certificate. What are these for? Additionally are they able to monitor apps and usage, ie Internet usage when it is not on their wifi?

    Additionally are they able to monitor apps and usage, ie Internet usage when it is not on their wifi?
    I do not have any VPN enabled?

    Do you happen to have an Android?  If so and depending on what version there is a great data usage analyse tool built-in.  See if you can go to Settings -> Data Usage  from there you can pick a current or previous billing cycle and then use the vertical sliders to select a date range and it will filter the usage data per app to show you exactly what app(s) were using data during that time frame.
