Cannot synch with Outlook 2003 calendar

I have not yet been able to synch my new tour with my outlook calendar. I had an issue with an obsolete folder in Outlook that caused the synch to hang up (operation terminated) but I removed that folder. Now, the synch doesn't really get going before I get an "unknown error" message. I have restored my files and wiped the calendar clean.
I am on Verizon and am using v 5.0.1 Desktop Manager. It looks, from prior documentation, like this is compatible with Outlook 2003.
Any ideas? Thanks!

Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
Given the events you descrive, I suggest the following steps (insert plenty of reboots of your PC...not just restarts, but full power down reboots). Also, it is advised that you be logged into the PC on an account with full admin rights. Further, under Vista/Win7, use the "Run As Administrator" option for everything.
1) Remove your device OS update package from your PC (add/remove programs)
2) Cleanly uninstall the RIM DTM software:
KB02206 How to perform a clean uninstall of BlackBerry Desktop Software
3) Get a fresh download of the RIM DTM software:
https://www.blackberry.com/Downloads/entry.do?code=A8BAA56554F96369AB93E4F3BB068C22
Choose the version that is newest and (if applicable) compatible with your PIM (if you are synchornizing via USB):
KB12268 Applications supported by BlackBerry Desktop Manager for synchronization
4) Download (to your PC) a fresh copy of your device OS package from your carrier:

5) Install DTM to your PC
6) Install (also to your PC), the device OS package
7) Start the organizer configuration over:
KB17022 How to configure organizer applications for synchronization using BlackBerry Desktop Manager
Hopefully that will get things going again.
Good luck and let us know!

  • Synch with Outlook 2003

    I recently have just purchased a BB 8110 and can not seem to configure it to synch with outlook 2003. I am getting a message that says "Runtime Error: Option's value is unacceptable. Please check option properties."  I have no idea what this means.
    I have verizon yahoo as my internet and email provider. Currently, I receive my email on Outlook Express. I would like to change everything, that is, my email and address book over to outlook. I then would like to synch my BB with outlook. This way everything will be in one place. Email, calendar, contacts, memo, etc.
    Can anyone help?
    Thanks

  • Trying to use the Tour 9630 with Outlook 2003 Calendar, Memo/Notes & Tasks. Can't Config & Complete....

    I would like to use my Outlook 2003 with my Blackberry Tour 9630 to use the Calendar, Memo & Task features instead of entering everything on the BB. I use my Outlook Express 6 for my email input and output. The Outlook 2003 is not connected to the internet for use but on my computer as a free standing application. Everytime I attempt to config the Desktop with Calendar, Memo & Tasks I get a "Option Values is unacceptable. Pls check options properties". I do pick MS Outlook as the application to connect but continuely get that message above when I am at the end of the config process at selecting NEXT. I would like to use Outlook 2003 if it is ok to use and connect. Or is there any other application that I can easily purchase for an easier connect and config too. Pls assist me. Ed

    Hello BklynBoy273 and welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
    Have you entered any information into Outlook yet? 
    The BlackBerry communicates with the Outlook data folder, called a pst.
    KB02362 may offer you some help trying to get the sync configured.
    Let me know how you make out.
    Thanks! And have a great day

  • Synchroniz​ing Palm Treo 680 Unlocked with Outlook 2003 on Windows 7

    After 2 full install and reinstall of Palm 6.2 I cannot synch my Outlook 2003 and Palm Treo 680
    Hotsynch Journal says everything has synchronized correctly but new meetings and task changes in one platform do not appear on other platform.
    There is an error mentioned for file PmTrcae Database (Protocol error 4004)
    I must mention that Installation process seems to drop after announcing that first hotsynch will be performed, it never does, I had to start it manually from the Treo.
    Will there be a proper Windows 7 version published?

    I downloaded v.6 onto my new Windows 7 computer. When I try to hot sync, I get a window stating that the driver is missing and I cannot find a driver on your site or on windows to download.  I don't think Outlook is involved here; I don't use it.
    Are you running a 64bit version of Win7?
    As reported many, many times in this forum, there are no USB drivers for this version.

  • Cannot synch multiple contact or calendar folders; no way to recognize folders with names other than contact or calendar

    cannot synch multiple contact or calendar folders from computer using outlook. iPhone seems to recognize only single title of contacts or calendar

    iPhone PC Suite may be helpful. It allows you to import contacts from vCard files, Outlook Express, Windows Address Book, Windows Live Mail and Outlook 2003/2007/2010/2013 to iPhone directly.

  • I'm too old to learn iCal.  How do I tell iTunes to synch with Outlook for Mac for all of the Contacts and the Calendar on my iPhone and iPad??  Thanks

    I'm too old to learn iCal.  How do I tell iTunes to synch with Outlook for Mac for all of the Contacts and the Calendar on my iPhone and iPad?? 
    Also, once I figure out how to replace iCal with Outlook/Mac on iTunes, how do I synch the phone and pad so that the information on those devices over-writes onto Outlook as a backup, rather than having a blank Calendar on Outlook wipe out all of the information on the phone and pad???
    Thanks

    If you haven't tried already, plug your devices into iTunes, and on each device next to the "Summary" tab at the top is another tab called "Info." Click that and scroll down to Contacts, Calendars, etc. There should be a pull down bar under each category for "Sync contacts from..." and you should be able to select from that pull down list Outlook.  Hit Apply at the bottom and see if that does it.

  • Iphone calendar does not synch with outlook

    Starting on Feb 1, my iPhone (5s) does not synch with Outlook (2013). Have tried many things:
    1. Building new Outlook data file (.pst)
    2. Changing synch settings in iTunes
    3. Changing USB cables
    4.Removing/reinstalling iTunes and other Aplle software
    Problem seems to have started after upgrading iOS and iTunes.
    Any idea?

    Yes, that does make sense. You can transfer data from the old .pst file without saving it as a .pst file. Archive your current .pst. Then save your contacts as vCards, and save your calendar as an iCalendar file. After creating the new .pst file, you can open the old calendar in the new .pst as well as import the vCards back to your contacts.
    Last question, did you run the scanpst.exe program to review your .pst file for corruption? You will find that, if I remember correctly, in the Office program folder. You can search for it. Run that, it prompts you for your .pst file and will scan it for problems. But saying that it started on a specific date would lead me to believe it is something you probably added that day. Out of all of the time I've been using Outlook 2007, 2010, and 2013 with my iPhones, and I've had them since the first one, I've only had 2 small events, and copying over the .pst has fixed them both.

  • The calendar week view on my iphone 4s starts on a Sunday.  I am synching with outlook on my computer which starts the week view on a Monday which I prefer.  How do I change my iphone calendar view to start the week on a Monday?

    The calendar week view on my iphone 4s starts on a Sunday.  I am synching with outlook on my computer (pc)  which starts the week view on a Monday which I prefer.  How do I change my iphone calendar view to start the week on a Monday?  I am in Australia.
    I have just noticed the other discussion points - mine is set to Australia. 
    Dear Apple - as the day that the week starts on can depend on country and religion - how about making it an option that the user can change????

    I believe the week view on the iPhone is handled by the Region settings in the phone. I am not aware of any other manner to change it, as you can with Outlook.

  • HTC Sync 3: Calendar and People Greyed out.  Cannot Sync with Outlook

    Hello Folks,
    I thought I would post this for anyone else that is having issues with HTC Sync 3.  I just upgraded from my Windows Mobile 6.5 phone to the Android HTC Thunderbolt so I was use to syncing my Outlook Calendar and Contacts to my phone with Windows Mobile Device Center.  For whatever reason, once I got HTC Sync installed and connected to the TB, the Calendar and People options were grayed out.  After a lot of searching the web and colorful metaphors, I finally found  two solutions that when combined,  allowed me to sync Outlook 2010 using HTC Sync 3.
    What I did was run a repair on Outlook 2010.
    Go to Start > Control Panel > Programs & Features > Outlook 2010.  Choose Repair.
    This will take a few minutes and did not destroy any of my existing data in the outlook.pst file.
    When it is complete, reboot your PC.  Your HTC Sync should now allow you to enable both Calendar and People tabs.
    IMPORTANT: Before you connect your Android to the PC and run HTC Sync, make sure that:
    If you have used another program to copy your contacts information to the device, you should delete the Android data first.  Otherwise you will get duplicates in Outlook and the Android.  To delete the contacts, I went to People > Menu > Delete > Menu > Select All > Delete
    If you have used another program to copy your calendar information to the device, you should delete the Android data first.  Otherwise you will get duplicates in Outlook and the Android.  To delete the calendar information do:Settings > Applications > Manage Applications > All (tab) > Calendar Storage > Clear Data
    You will also need to do:
    Calendar > Menu > more > calendar’s > menu > remove Calendars > select calendar > OK.
    After that, I was able to sync my Outlook 2010 information to the HTC Thunderbolt.
    Hope this is helpful
    Peace

    I've had this problem for 3 months! Here are things I've tried which didn't work (my Outlook 2003 calendar still won't sync with my iPhone so my iPhone essentially does not have a working calendar)...but they might work for you:
    delete everything off the calendar on your iPhone & check the "override your calendar the next time you sync" button & sync
    try setting up a new user on your computer and syncing to that (make sure you've unchecked that "override everything on the iPhone at next sync" button) to see if things will move from the iPhone to the computer

  • Tour Sync Issues with Outlook 2003 and Error Code 0x8004fceb

    Hello, I have a Tour with DM 5.0, which I sync with Outlook 2003 on my laptop running Vista O/S.  I am having a problem deleting items from the Tour that I've previously added via a sync with Outlook. 
    Some time after syncing, I delete the items from Outlook and then re-sync.  Instead of deleting from BB, the changes dialog box tells me the items are going to be added from the device to Outlook!!!  If I accept changes so that other calendar items will update (from Outlook to BB), Outlook remains fine, but the items do not delete from BB.
    Additionally, existing items on BB are duplicated on the BB during sync.  In other words, I have ended up with 7 entries for one appointment on the BB even though there's only one in Outlook.  This primarily happens with recurring appointments.
    Lastly, despite all this confusion, the sync ends with Error Code 0x8004fceb; check documentation, which I cannot locate on blackberry.com.
    I am set up for two-way sync, future items only.  I even reset to one-way sync from calendar to device to no avail.
    Please help.
    Thank you.

    Sorry. I guess I needed to be clearer I have Office SP 2.
    I will tell you that I currently running an older version of iTunes (7.3) because that is the only one that syncs.
    In the newest version of iTunes (and of course the current one) it does give me the option to sync with outlook.
