Nokia 6131, Windows XP SP2 all updates, PC Suite 6.82.22.0, Bluetooth
I need help on syncing groups with PC Suite. When browsing contacts with Phone Browser, I can edit/view contacts, but no info about the groups I've defined on my phone.
I've also tried syncing contacts with Lotus Notes but no groups were exported.
This is a very important feature for my job.
Thanks ,
Silvio

if you are using the ovi.com, i would suggest you get your contacts squared away and sync them elsewhere, that is going to be deleted soon, if not already.
i had issues syncing my data with nokia services for the longest time. it was good, then they "fixed" the nokia suite and it wasnt....then there was ovi suite and that botched them all too.
i used to sync directly to my outlook with the 9500, and then through my other devices until ovi suite when i grew tired of the challenges with the contacts.
eventually, i ended up signing up with office365 to get an exchange account for $5/mo.
i think that the devs for the software products only use thier nokia exchange accounts when testing, which goes around the issues that we have had.
i would create either a google account and sync there, or if you want to also sync directly to an outlook, create a live/hotmail/outlook.com email address and then download the hotmail connector application for your pc, and then it will sync your wireless devices and outlook like a free exchange server and sync contacts/calendar/email.
if you go that route, you can get the hotmail connector here: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/outlook/microsoft-office-outlook-hotmail-connector-overview-HA0102...

  • How to sync contacts group with Ovi PC suite or Ov...

    Hi
    I have a N97 with latest firmware.
    Does anybody know how to sync contacts group with Ovi PC suite or Ovi.com?
    I go to the option in (Menu/Settings/Connectivity/Data transfer/Sync/), then edit profile.
    But don't know how to define the database of contacts group.
    Anybody knows? Thanks

    Hi you can sync groups with Ovi suite on your computer, you can also edit them by right clicking a contact and adding to group !

  • Sending to a shared contact group with subgroups fail

    Hello all,
    I am hoping someone can help me with this one, as I have researched non stop and cannot find an answer.
    SCENARIO:
    Outlook 2010 (with all the latest updates)
    Exchange 2010
    Windows 7 x64
    We are a group of 15 users. All 15 of us add a shared mailbox used for communications into our Outlook client so we can access and monitor the entire mailbox, including contacts.
    When trying to send a communication to a Contact group that is in the shared mailbox contacts, it will work fine unless there is another contact group within that group (subgroup).  The email will bounce back with the following error:
    [email protected] #550 5.4.4 ROUTING.NoConnectorForAddressType; unable to route for address type ##
    If you send to a contact group with a subgroup from your own local contacts, it works fine.
    If you send to a contact group without a subgroup, it works fine.
    If you log directly into the shared mailbox and send from there, it works fine.
    This issue appears ONLY to occur when sending to a contact group that has a subgroup within it from a shared contact list.
    Based on my investigation, it appears that Outlook is trying to look for the subgroups within the local contact list, not the location of the actual contact group itself. Perform the following steps:
    Add an additional (or shared) mailbox to your Outlook profile.
    In the shared mailbox contact list, create 2 contact groups. (Test 1 and Test 2).
    Add Test 2 into the Test 1 group. In Test 2 group, create/add a contact. (This may easiest be done by the shared mailbox itself)
    Ensure you are logged into your original profile, and Right click the Test 1 group and Create->Email.
    You will notice right away if you expand the Test 1 group, it will show up Test 2 (Unknown) and if you try and double click Test 2 to see it's properties, it says it cannot find it. If you perform this same step while logged into the shared mailbox directly,
    it is able to locate the contact.
    Any information I have found on this bounceback references a bug where a link in an email who try to send to a contact using MAILTO instead of SMTP. However, this is not the scenario I am in.
    It is currently not feasible to have everyone add all these contact groups into their own contact list, as these groups change all the time.
    If anyone has any ideas how this could be fixed, or have maybe other suggestions of how to use and access groups with subgroups for communications without logging into the shared mailbox, that would be great. We are unable to login to the shared mailbox
    directly anymore as we are doing away with shared passwords.
    Thanks all

    Hello,
    How did you select the recipients when composing email? Did you click the To button and select it from the Address Book or use the auto-complete list? If you select from the auto-complete list, please try deleting the contact group from the auto-complete
    list and then test again.
    In addition, since the bounceback error is similar to the MAILTo bug, we may try to install the hotfix to take a chance.

  • Sync contact groups

    Hi
    Can anyone tell me how to sync contact groups between an iphone contact list and a gmail contact list including contact groups ?
    thanks in advance

    I just set up syncing with Gmail Contacts for my wife's iPad this morning. IOS doesn't handle Groups. I've seen lots of gripes about this in many places online. I've also seen it suggested that we should suggest this as a "feature" to Apple. I'm going to look all day today for a place to do this. I hope you will, too. Good luck!

  • Is there a way to sync contacts iPhone with my macbook pro

    Is there a way to sync contacts iPhone with my macbook pro

    Yes.
    1) With iTunes and an USB cable.
    2) Using MobileMe over the air. (I think it's replaced by iCloud soon [5th Oct.])
    I would just wait and create an iCloud account when it's released.

  • Nokia 6131 Sync with Lotus Organizer

    Hi
    I have a problem when syncronizing with Lotus Organizer, 50% of the time it will work but sometimes I get an error with the following:-
    Organiser 5.0/6.0
    Unable to initialize Organizer
    Unknown error :0
    Any help appretiated
    WIN XP
    SP2
    NOKIA PC SUITE VER 6.80.22
    BLUETOOTH CONNECTION

    Yes you can -- but you need a 3rd party plug in to sync to Outlook first -- then you sync Outlook with your iPhone.
    I don't believe Microsoft maintains a direct sync relationship with Lotus Organizer anymore without the 3rd party plug in. Do a google search for "sync Lotus Organizer with Outlook" and you will find a batch of programs that will do that.
    Each time you sync your iPhone with Outlook, you will then need to resync your Outlook with Lotus Organizer to keep it up to date - and vice versa. It won't automatically sync everything up.

  • Does PC suite sync contact groups?

    Hi all,
    Got the 6230i phone, and I use the Nokia PC suite to sync it with the PC. Now recently when my phone broke down and then replaced by  a similar one, I've notice that my contact groups weren't backed up, and I had to enter them again manually. So checked PC suite, and saw it wasn't aware of contact groups at all, although according to its help, contact groups were supposed to be supported. Can anyone help with this?
    Thanks,
    David.

     > - First, unlike what you say, my contact groups weren't safe. As I explained in my original message, contact groups weren't restored to the replaced phone I had got. 
    You can check if the contact group is correctly backuped using Noki. The problem you mentioned is usually occurred between S40 and S60 phones. They store contact group differently - S40 stores in a separate section and S60 stores contact group together with contact database (in the contacts.cdb file). These two format doesn't recognize each other very well.

  • Syncing Contacts/Calendars with two computers?

    Hi,
    I'm using my iPod touch more as a PDA than iPod and want to be able to sync my Contacts and Calendars with both my home Mac and work Mac. Right now I have it sort of working; at home I have it set to sync everything (Music, Movies, Photos, Info, etc.). On my work computer I have it just set to sync "Info".
    The problem is that every time I plug it into the "other" computer, the Sync checkboxes for Contacts and Calendars are turned off. So I have to click them 'on' and hit "Merge" to merge the data.
    That isn't a show-stopper, because it does work, but I'm wondering if there's a way to make those settings 'sticky' so I don't have to keep reselecting Sync. It's just more of a nuisance than anything...
    Thanks!

    I guess this raises more questions for me. I tried synching contacts and calendars from the two computers, but with iTunes set for syncing different groups on each computer. That did not work - whichever groups were on the iPod from one computer disappeared and were replaced when I synced to the second computer.
    The text you referred to implies (to me) that I can change or add contacts/events and they will be tracked on all 3 devices, but all 3 devices have to be syncing to all contacts and groups. Is this correct?
    Thanks again
    If you originally chose to replace the contacts on the iPhone with contacts from the computer, the contacts will not be merged on the following syncs. You can reset the sync history on the computer before syncing, and then choose merge. This would make the contacts and calendars look the same on both devices.
    If you want to have the same information on all three devices(or more), it would be better to setup an Exchange or MobileMe account.

  • Sync-ing groups with 9500 & Outlook

    Hi, I use groups often. But sync-ing with Outlook seems to delete them, even if the group is present in Outlook too. Any sugestions?

    This is something that Nokia needs to fix ASAP!!!
    A few of us use Microsoft Outlook to organize our Contacts. Once you get more than a few numbers organizing them into categories: business, family, etc. makes makes it much easier to find the number you want.
    It is great that Nokia can sync. with Outlook but not being able to sync with all of Outlooks groups makes the feature almost worthless.
    If Nokia wants to sell a business smartphone then it MUST sync with business software, completely.

  • Nokia 6230 synchronization of groups with outlook

    Is it possible to synchronize the groups (Anrufergruppen) according to contacts in the nokia phone 6230 with outlook contacts?
    Thanks for help
    Hansjörg

    Today I searched through the discussions and found many other users with the same problem (Himalaya2050, Marbru, tugrulislier). Almost everybody using Nokia6230 and using international character set, maybe the root cause for the sync problem.
    I think Nokia should have a tested fix for that problem.
    Was the phone update the solution for other users? Do you have any feedback? I haven't found in the discussions any user with that problem solved.
    When I first contact Nokia support in Brazil they told me to do many time consuming procedures (reinstall and update PC sw many times) that didn't worked and didn't make sense for me, as the sync was working with previous version. So I don't want to try another non tested solution, because I will have to go to a tech assistance, wait and probably loose all the information stored on the phone.
    I think I will have to exchange my phone ...

  • Syncing Contact Groups

    Afternoon all, wonder if anyone can help me with something. Not sure if this is going to be possible but no harm in asking eh?
    Basically, at our company we have 3 senior managers all using iPhone3G. They have their Exchange mailboxes syncing mail, contacts and calanders to their iPhones. They can access our company golbal address book fine in the Groups section of contacts.
    Is it possible to sync another address book to their iPhones as well as the global company address list? E.G. in contact groups on the iPhone, they will see Global Contacts as a group and also this other group of contacts.
    Hope this makes sense?!?
    Cheers

    i have a new iphone as of last week -- had all my contacts in outlook 2007 in one group and synced them. then i figured out I could create groups in folders-- which would make searching easier on the iphone. i did that and they show up in itunes and sync perfectly.
    fyi -- (i couldn't get "contact groups" to work -- i had to create new folders in outlook contacts instead of groups. that may help the problems listed in this thread.)
    now, i'm trying to figure out how to "delete" the initial contacts (that are all of my contacts in one group) from the iphone and leave them on outlook.
    i'm working with outlook 2007 and a pc. the initial sync in essence duplicates all of my contacts and is unnecessarily taking up space on the iphone.
    any ideas?

  • Synching gmail contact groups with the iPhone

    Can I import my gmail contact groups into an iPhone/Macbook?  Do I need to put them in the iContacts or some other way.  Thank you..

    Found out I was using Outlook 2000. Syncing won't work unless you use Outlook 2003 or higher. I got around this by going into Outlook contacts and did the following steps under the file tab I:
    1-Export to file
    2-Comma Separated Values (Windows)
    3-Named file
    4-Saved file to desktop
    Then I copied the contacts file to mobile thumb and imported them to Windows Address on another computer. From there I synced with my IPhone.
    I found out Windows Address mirrors anything under Outlook. Because my Outlook is old and in the wrong format using my Windows Address will do the same thing thus I needed to copy info to another computer in order to use Windows Address. I will upgrade Outlook and see how that works but for now I have a temporary fix to problem.
    Hope this helps.

  • N95 Contact Groups with iSync

    Hi there,
    I have done some searching around and can only find old posts on this and was wondering if this had been sorted since.
    I have a Macbook and I use contact groups in my Address Book. I would like those contact groups to be created on my n95 address book when I use iSync.
    Can this be done? Also, if it can be done with a special program please tell me as I will happily install something to get this to work.
    Thanks,
    Mike

    Hi Stephan.
    I found that iSync had errors when syncing that was stopping it refreshing the groups successfully.
    1. Open Applications > Utilities > Console.
    2. Open iSync and try and sync
    Look in the console log and see if it comes up with any entries with error or failure in them. In my case I had an error that a directory did not exist and this was causing iSync to lock up when it came to refreshing groups from Addressbook. My error is reproduced below.
    2006-05-30 12:19:26.124 AddressBookSync[324] SyncServices assertion failure ([[NSFileManager defaultManager] fileExistsAtPath:directory]) in [ISDRecordStore initWithDatabaseInDirectory:], /SourceCache/SyncServices2/SyncServices2-188/SyncServices/ISDRecordStore.m:32 directory does not exist: /Users/xxx/Library/Application Support/SyncServices/Local/clientdata/0063006f006d002e006100700070006c0065002e0 0410064006400720065007300730042006f006f006b
    In my case, I created the directory mentioned which stopped the error occurring. For some other reason when I sync'd next I had duplicate contact groups - but one of the duplicates was empty. I was then able to delete the duplicates in AddressBook and sync my desired group to my phone.
    If iSync works correctly, you should only receive one line in the log after syncing if there are no changes e.g.
    2006-05-30 12:38:37.709 iSync[339] we receive the end of our sync plan
    This may or may not help in your situation.
    Cheers Gav

  • Sending mail to a contact group with a numeric name

    Hello!
    I have a problem when sending mail to a contact group. The contact group is named "1234", and in Mail the autocompletion of the address is not performed successfully.
    However, if I rename the group to "A1234" then it all works. Sounds like a bug to me.
    Also, I have 31 people in my contact group. And, when adding the "A1234" group in the To: field - not all in the contact group are added. (And yes, they all have valid email addresses)
    This also sounds like a bug to me. Or, am I missing something?
    I should also add that when - in the address book - I select the group and "Send email to group", not all people in the group are added either...
    Cheers,
    / Peter

    Your email provider limits the number of email addresses you can send to at once, so it's likely you exceeded that limit, thus causing their server to hang. Check with them to find out that limit, then try reducing the number of recipients your sending to in that group to that number or less.
