Appointments in BB won't sync to Outlook / duplicates

HI all I have two questions. 1. I have a number of appointments on the BB which don't transfer to Outlook when I sync. I have tried adding text to the comments to try to trigger a sync (as it's changed) but it makes no difference. Any ideas? 2. I have two email addresses on the BB - work and personal. It continually duplicates meetings by associating them with whichever other email they were received by. What I want is to add meetings to either the laptop or BB, and for them to sync, without duplications or nonsyncs. Background - I'm using a BB Torch 9800, s/w v.6 bundle 2949. I have the latest desktop software. I'm using Outlook 2007. I'm a privta euser - no corporate server etc. My service provider in the UK is Orange who don't have a clue about BB issues. HELP!

Hi jonathanr,
Sounds like you may have events in more than one calendar on your BlackBerry® Torch™ 9800 smartphone. Only the calendar selected as default on your BlackBerry® Torch™ 9800 smartphone will be synchronized.
You can check to see which calendar is set as your default with the steps in this KB article. "Calendar does not synchronize during the wired synchronization process" http://bbry.lv/JTdJQH
Scenerio 3 of the following KB article should provide more information as well as steps to merge the calendars. "How to merge multiple calendars into one calendar on the BlackBerry smartphone" http://bbry.lv/JTcocQ
Hope this helps.

TungstenE won't sync to Outlook 2003 since receiving new laptop

My previous laptop died so my IT dept moved my data to a new laptop. Our programs and data are stored on separate drives. The Palm software & data was stored on the program drive, so I lost everything related to my Palm. I reinstalled Hotsync Manager from the original CD but it won't sync with Outlook. I have also upgraded to v4.1.4 but that didn't help. I have also looked for the Outlook Conduits by clicking on the Hotsync > Custom in the Palm Desktop program. I don't see any Outlook Conduits listed. When I run the Hotsync Manager, the Palm Desktop and PDA will sync but there are appointments that were stored in my Outlook pst file that need to be in sync with the PDA.
New operating system is Win XP Pro
Post relates to: Tungsten E

Ok.
You did not see the PIM conduit sync in start-programs-palm-PIM conduit sync? It should be there. I provided the path in the previous post.
Regarding your device locking up, have you installed any 3rd party programs. They can cause corruption if not compatible.
Another cause of locking up can be corrupted data.
Click on the following link for the program called DbFixiT. This program has a trial version that you can download and install on your Palm OS device. The trial version will scan for database corruption and then report the corruption. You can then find the records causing the problem and fix them yourself or you can purchase the program and have it automatically fix the records.
http://www.pimlicosoftware.com/dbfixit.htm
To install the program, set all conduits to "do nothing" except quick install or install if using Palm desktop 6.2.
After you install the program on the handheld, run the scan and also scan for Blobs in the calendar.
After you clean-up the database on the handheld, set the conduits in hotsync to handheld overwrites desktop and perform a hotsync.
Another cause of problems can be the following:
Are you sync'ing the E to the same username in Palm Desktop as an older Palm device?
If you are, this will cause problems on the new device. When you sync the device, it saves the device settings, 3rd party apps, preferences, etc. in the backup folder in the username folder on the PC. When you sync the new device it copies the contents of the backup folder for the old device to the new device. This will cause corruption in the settings for the new device thus causing erratic behavior of the new device.
If this is the case,
You may need to hard reset your device and rename your backup folder. Go to http://www.palm.com/cgi-bin/cso_kbURL.cgi?ID=887 and follow the directions to do a hard reset. Next before you hotsync your data back over you will need to rename your backup folder, to do that go here;
XP
C:\program files\palm or palm one\[hotsync username]\ and rename your backup
folder to backup.old
Vista
Start-->documents\Palm OS Desktop\[hotsync username]\ and rename your backup
folder to backup.old
Then hotsync to your current hotsync name and all your contacts, calendar,
tasks, and memos will come back over.

Icloud calendar is no longer syncing to outlook although it previously did. If I make a calendar entry in outlook and hit the iCloud refresh, it does sync to my iphone, ipad. However if I make a calendar entry on my iphone or ipad it won't sync to Outlook

Blackberry curve 8330 won't sync to Outlook

My blackberry curve that I've had since 2008 suddenly stopped syncing to my outlook calendar. All appointments show up on my blackberry but won't sync to the computer.
Can anyone help?
I've already checked the CICAL setting
I've already checked the sync setting in the blackberry software.
Any help would be greatly appreciated....or the name of another calendar program that works well with the blackberry and computer.
Thank you

Hi,
I assume you are using Blackberry Desktop Manager for syncronization? You checked the setup under BDM you stated. Did you check the direction for which it syncs? Other than that, there are other programs such as Datapilot from Susteen that works well for syncronization. You can go to their website for more info.

Calendar won't sync from Outlook to iphone

Any idea why my Outlook calendar won't sync using iCloud? It had been working fine and stopped syncing in the last week. Thanks!

without specifics that is the best I can do

HT1386 Just downloaded the newest version of Itunes. Now my Iphone 4s won't sync with Outlook calendar. Has any one else seen this?

Just downloaded the newest version of Itunes. Now my Iphone 4s won't sync with Calendar in XP Outlook. Has anyone else had this problem, and how did you fix it? I've already made sure the proper check boxes are on in Itunes and tried the reset sync history. Also re-downloaded Itunes again. Same problem.

Well, OSX 10.9.2 is free, which should solve the iTunes problem, but 10.9.2 isn't bug free, & you'll lose the ability to run any PPC Apps if that important, as well as needing to update many Apps & Printer Drivers.

IPhone "moves" appointments 1 hour early upon sync w/Outlook 2007

This is driving me crazy. When I create an appointment in Outlook then sync to iPhone, it changes the appointment time to one hour earlier on the phone - but the time remains them same in Outlook.
Further, if I create an appointment on iPhone then sync to Outlook it works fine - UNTIL I sync again, then it will shift that same appointment one hour earlier.
Yes, I can trust Outlook for the correct time - but I'm not at my PC 90% of the time. And I usually make appointments months in advance so trying to remember which one is actually correct is almost impossible.
Any help or secret magical formulas for creating appointments would be greatly appreciated!

Don't know if you found a solution but I had a coworker who was having the same issue and we worked out the solution that worked for him.
I wrote it up on my blog: http://weblog.techdad.net/2008/08/27/fix-it-outlook-calendar-and-iphone-calendar -events-hours-not-synched-correctly/
LMK if this fix works for you!

IPhone contacts won't sync with Outlook

I am trying to sync my iPhone contacts with my Outlook contacts but they won't sync. In iTunes I checked "Sync Contacts with Outlook" but nothing happens.

Check your contacts in Outlook and make sure they belong to iCloud and not My Contacts or another account such as Gmail, Yahoo or Exchange. Only iCloud contacts will sync with your devices.

Help, icloud won't sync with outlook and iphone

I downloaded the iCloud from iTunes and now my Outlook no longer syncs with my iPhone. It worked perfectly before. Now when I make an entry in my phone it doesn't sync with my PC. This is so annoying, and has cost me dearly with missed appointments. I would like to disable it and go back to how it was but don't know how. Or fix it. I've read the posts and I'm so confused by the different responses that I am going crazy. Please someone just give me a simple solution to either fix this problem or to get rid of iCloud.
Thanks, much appreciated

SOLUTION POSTED THIS ELSEWHERE ON APPLE.COM
TeddyDo wrote: Hi, I have just found a great solution for syncing up Outlook default folders with iCloud folders and thought I wuold share it with you. The Control Panel still needs to be installed but the new iCloud folders can be synced with default calendars in real time by means of CodeTwo Sync for iCloud. Seems to be working great so far:
http://www.codetwo.com/sync-for-icloud/
Works with calendars, tasks and contacts.
Thanks TeddyDo...this works for us to. We (my wife and I) each have an iPhone 4S that we sync with our outllook 2010 on our home PC. after a little bit of reconciliation they all sync real-time! OUTSTANDING
worth adding a couple of additional bits of info.
check out the CodeTwo website videos as they are really easy to follow (2 minutes) and the software does it all for you, barring a little bit on the intial configuration, which is why I thought I would type up what to look out for.
only works (supported) if you have Windows Vista or Windows 7
assuming you already have outlook installed, first install install iCloud
go to www.apple.com/icloud and set up the syncs (what you want to sync)
iCloud will have set up a iCloud Calendar in Outlook and you will see that it has probably moved all the data out of the default folder onto the iCloud folder so they are out of sync
install CodeTwo sync for iCloud http://www.codetwo.com/sync-for-icloud/ it cost $10, if you live in the EU it will stupidly ask you for your VAT number, if like me this is for personal use rather than a company it is a pain, but if you put your country as say USA and pay by paypal it works
if you have Norton 360 you will need to go to 'manage the firewall' and 'allow' CodeTwo (which is C2...) otherwise Norton wont allow it to sync.
configure CodeTwo by going to the settings button on the Outlook top bar/ribbon and select which folders you wish to sync and you probably want to go for two-way.
if you are viewing both the iCloud and default calendars you will see that they should start to sync, this may intially take 10 minutes or so as it is making sure they are identical - there is a manage conflicts calendar that is worth flicking through in case there is anything there.
you need to go throught the same process for the contacts (i have 1500 of them so it took10 mins) and then tasks, reminders, etc
they should all (PC, iCloud and iPhones)be synced, but your iPhone calendar will seem as if it has duplicated the lot...it hasn't it is just that it is displaying both the PC calendar and iCloud calendar and they are now identical. go to the iPhone Calendar and tick only the iCloud calendar and your duplicates disappear. contacts etc shouldnt need that attention as it doesnt show duplicates, although if like me you may have some old unreconciled conflicts (historically using iTunes to sync PC and iCloud - not CodeTwo's fault) to deal with, but I should have dealt with that before.
we have multiple PC/laptops at home and given this success we have been thinking about syncing a couple of PCs so we can both be clearing down our outlook emails and all our emails sync. CodeTwo do a couple of similar syncing packages to do that...one for simply two PCs and one for multiple PCs across a home network, giving you most of the functionality of MS Exchange at home...will post something if we go for it, but confident it will probably work.

Does iTunes Show an error message?

Still won't Sync with Outlook! (So much for update!)

Man this really *****. Still no fix for it syncing with outlook on my PC!
I'm seriously considering switching back to a palm pilot! I have to have to have a sync-able calendar!
It worked with an old version of itunes but then stopped working with newer versions!
Been on the the phone with tech support on 2 occasions now and they could not fix the problem!

Hmmm, I'm able to sync fine with Outlook 2003. Unfortunately, the iPhone won't sync with any Outlook versions prior to that one.
I was upset and frustrated too, but some savvy net searching yielded a fully licensed, legit copy of Outlook 2003 for less than $40. I actually like it better than previous versions of Outlook and see it as a great upgrade, and it syncs with the iPhone. Upon installation, it brought over my old Calendar, Contacts, etc. It's all there.
I've ditched using Yahoo! calendar and contacts as I never felt comfortable with putting my friends and family's information on the internet.
Hope this helps. Cheers!
