Cant sync my outlook address book via desktop manager!

This is my 1st BB and I cannot figure this part out.
I do not have wireless sync capabilities so I need to do it through Desktop manager and when I try it says:
"Synchronization is currently unavailable for:
Address Book
Because the application is configured for wireless synchronization Desktop Sync for the above application will be disabled
Please click help for information an how to disable wireless Synchronization on your device"
So I click help and I get this:
"If wireless data synchronization is available for your BlackBerry® device, but you want to synchronize your organizer data using the BlackBerry® Desktop Manager, verify that wireless data synchronization is turned off on your device. Click Help on your device for more information about wireless data synchronization."
There is no info that I can find on my "device" that discusses this issue.
Please help!!
Synching to my outlook via the desktop manager was the main reason I got a BB in the 1st place

Had the same problem and saw ur post. Here is how I fixed my problem. The problem was my gmail account. I just reinstalled it on my blackberry to receive emails and it apparently erased all my contacts. On your phone go to "Email Settings". There should be a list of email accounts. Check each email account (for me it was gmail). Click on "Synchronization Options". There will be an Item called "Contacts" which will be checked. Uncheck it and click "Save". Go back into Desktop manager and "Address Book" can be restored.

Outlook 2011 problem syncing contacts with address book

I am aware that Lion has broken the sync ability of Outlook 2011 with Address Book. Hopefullly this will be fixed at some point.
So my problem is that I have decided to use a workaround to get my Address Book contents into Outlook 2011. I am not concerned with further syncing at this point. I just want to get my addresses into Outlook and hope a better fix is offered at some point.
About the only way I could figure out how to do this was to export my Address Book as vCard. I then imported the vCard file into Gmail and then exported that as a CSV file. It contained 550 addresses. I opened it in Excel and it contained 550 rows. Great so far.
I then Imported into Outlook 2011 and chose import a text file. When the mapping window opened, it showed over 890 files instead of 550 and the fields were not mapped correctly. I could not complete the import because it was so screwed up.
So I'm back to square one and very frustrated. There must be others who have the same issue and maybe have figured out a way to do this. Please help.

Submitting InfoPath form via Outlook Address book.

Hi there,
Is it possible to have an info path form used so that there is a submit button and the user is able to choose the email address of their choice to have the form sent? Right now I only see the option of configuring a data connection with a pre filled in email
address.
Example. I create a form. A user opens it and needs to submit it to one person in our organization, possibly from the Outlook address book.
I see a people picker but that does not allow you to submit.
Thank you.

Hi SarahShay,
You can use a people picker to store the people that you want to email, then create a submit button configured to send the form by e-mial to the people of the people picker.
More information, please refer to the link:

I hope this helps.

Entourage Sync with iCal & Address Book - Fixed!

Finally found a solution that really works.
Background
I had the infamous issue of trying to get Entourage Calendar and Contacts to Sync with iCal & Address book for the purpose of syncing with iTunes on my iPhone.
I've had most of the symptoms listed on this site.
It only syncs one way, Entourage Calendar shows up in iCal, but it's blank, Entourage Calendar does not show up at all in iCal, but contacts show up in Address book.
I've read nearly every post about it and tried all the various fixes listed, but none of them worked, or at least not consistently.
My setup:
OS X 10.5.5 MacBook Pro (latest updates)
Entourage 2004 (latest patches)
(If your using Mobile me, log out before you do this)
Here's what you'll need to do:
1. Backup your Main Identity which contains all your entourage info, email, contacts, calendars, etc. (Just in case you goof something up)
It's located in your home user account ~User/youraccount/documents/Microsoft User Data (Backup this whole folder)
If you don't know all your email credentials such as username, password, smtp, pop info, jott it down as it will save you some time later.
2. Launch Entourage and uncheck the Sync Services. Quit Entourage and all Office Apps.
Also you should archive all your entourage data if you want to copy it to the new setup.
Archive the contacts and Calendar Events separately.
3. Launch iCal and manually delete the Entourage Calendar (if present) Quit iCal.
4. Now open your documents folder and locate the folder named Microsoft User Data and rename the folder to Microsoft User Data Original
5. Create a new OS X User from the System Preferences... Accounts
6. Logoff your current user account and login to your new user account.
7. Launch Entourage and enter your email info.
8. Now create a single calendar event.
9. Go to Entourage Preferences, and check the Sync Services. (click OK, etc.)
10. Wait 5 minutes, then launch iCal and you will see the Entourage Calendar with your single event.
You should also see your contact that was created when you setup email in the Address Book.
If this worked you've isolated the syncing problem to a corrupt file in your user account or corrupt data in your entourage account.
You can go back to your original user account and delete all the info from entourage to see if you had corrupt data in entourage, (youd did back it up first, right?) or you can follow the procedures below to move all your stuff over to the new login account.
Now you'll need to migrate your data from your Old login account to your new login account.
(I've tried just moving the new Entourage identity back to the old account, and it didn't always work)
The easiest way to move data between accounts is to login as root.
To enable the root user, Go to Utilities, Directory Utility, and under the edit menu, select enable root user, enter a unique password, later you can disable root login when your all done)
Logout of your new login and login as root with the new password you just created
When it prompts for a username type "root". If you don't have that option click the Other login and then type in root as the username and the new password.
Once your logged in as root, be careful as you can pretty much trash anything without any warnings.
Now Open your original user folder located in ~User/youraccount as well as the new user you just created
(not the root account)
Open the folders side by side and drag the contents from old to new:
Desktop
Documents
iTunes
Movies
Music
plus any other info you need.
Log back into your new user account, and run a repair permissions from disk utility.
Launch Entourage and enter a new event and contact. Then wait a few minutes and verify that it made it over to iCal & Address book.
If it did, and it should have, you can then import your entourage archives, do contacts first, then wait a few minutes and verify it shows up in Address Book, then do your Calendar events and verify.
When everything is syncing between entourage and iCal/Address Book you can connect your iPhone and enable syncing.
A few important notes:
-If you have Years worth of Calendar Items in entourage, you will most likely run into problems, so archive your old Events and only restore that which you need.
-You may also need to retrieve old application preferences.
-Once your sure you've got everything, you can delete the Microsoft User Data Original folder that we renamed and put in your Documents Folder.
Hope this helps somebody out.

Entourage calendar does not sync as you are expecting, with iCal.
Turn your Entourage sync services on (to sync your calendar) and you will notice in iCal a new calendar on the left, called Entourage. Mind has a purple color to it, for example.
Now, in iCal, create a new appointment and assign it TO the Entourage calendar. Now sync, and hey presto it shows up in Entourage.
This is by design, Entourage does not sync ALL of your iCal calendars, it will only sync the Entourage calendar which is created in iCal.
For example, I have Home, Work, Personal and Entourage calendars in iCal - appointments I make with my Home, Work or Personal calendar will not appear in Entourage, period. Only appointments made in iCal using the Entourage calendar will appear in Entourage (after a sync).
Likewise, appointments made IN Entourage Calendar, are sync'd to iCal and are only visible if you show the Entourage calendar in iCal - (it's switched ON by default, but can be switched off by un-ticking the calendar in the left pane of iCal).
Does this make sense?

When I sync my outlook 2013 calendar via Icloud, the changes that i made in my computer does not appear on my Iphone-4

When I sync my outlook 2013 calendar via Icloud, the changes that i made in my computer does not appear on my Iphone-4

If you using on a windows pc, maybe you should reinstall the iCloud Control Panel. You can download the latest version from here: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1455?viewlocale=en_US
If you cant see your changes on icloud.com than you have trouble between outlook and icloud. this is the part of the icloud control panel.

Sync with Windows Address Book just hangs

I have iPod Touch 4g, iOS 4.1, iTunes 10.0.1.22, Windows XP (up to date). I sync'd my Windows Address Book to the Touch without issue, I made some updates on the Touch, and now when I try to sync, it just hangs at trying to sync the contacts. No errors, it just indicates that it is syncing. iTunes doesn't actually hang, I can cancel the sync, and I can still sync songs, and it still backs up fine as first sync step.

As far as I am aware, "identities" is an Outlook Express concept that was dropped by Microsoft some time ago in favour of separate User Accounts along with Windows Address Book being replaced by Windows Contacts. I am also not 100% sure that iTunes will sync with Windows Address book. Do you see it on the drop down menu in the Sync Contacts tab?
If you do and if iTunes will sync with Windows Address Book you should only see the contacts associated with the identity you are using and shared contacts. If iTunes then syncs, it should sync with the identity you are using at the time of the sync.

Pearl 8130 - Synching Outlook Address Book

Hello,
I am having issues synching my Outlook address book to my Pearl. A few contacts synched during the first batch I tested with but my Pearl has not synched since. I have about 100 contacts still in Outlook but are not on my phone. My calendar and tasks are synching properly so it's not a technical issue. Please advise!
On a related note, I also have a TMobile dash and am thinking of batch porting over my contacts. Is this possible? I tried doing this with BB Desktop manager but it's not recognizing my Dash. My contacts are not saved on my SIM (My Pearl does not have a SIM slot).
Thanks!

Did you ever get an answer to this question as I am interested in the response...thank you

IPhone not syncing Contacts to Address Book

I noticed that my iPhone (both original iPhone and iPhone 3G) was not syncing contacts with Address Book. I tried to Reset Sync History in iSync, and when I have tried to replace the contacts on iPhone under the Advanced options, I lose all my contacts on the iPhone!
The only way to get some contacts back is restoring from backup, but unfortunately as iTunes performs a backup of the iPhone on sync, these backups also have no contacts! I have an old backup that fortunately has not been overwritten but the contact list is a bit out of date.
Address Book on the Mac seems to be fine and this is backed up.
It would appear that iTunes has somehow lost its "connection" to Address Book, which is why when I chose to replace the Contacts on the iPhone with the information on the computer I lost them all!
iCal still seems to sync fine with Calendar.
Can I re-link Address Book with iTunes?

Jason L wrote:
Hey lim_my,
Are contacts syncing with MobileMe or any other applications?
I don't have MobileMe.
Now you mention it, Address Book did not appear to even update if I updated a contact in Mail.
Can you sync contacts in another User account? to create another user account goto System Preferences> Accounts> click the lock to make changes> click the + button to add another user account.
Yes I can! I only tried to sync Contacts, leaving all other options i.e Calendars Bookmarks Ringtones Music Videos Applications untouched, and now I have some test Contacts on the iPhone.
You can try Resetting the SyncServices folder, Just follow the steps in this article to stop the service and then delete the SyncServices folder in your user library.
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1627
I had tried this before, within iSync, which did not work. I then tried the command in Terminal as per the above link, then went and deleted the /user/Library/ Sync Services folder. Still no joy.
So it looks as though I have a broken Address Book rather than iTunes. Should I post this in the OS X Leopard section of Discussions?

New users are not updated in Outlook address book (Offline)

Hi All,
We are having an Exchange 2010 environment. from few weeks we are experiencing this issue. When we create new user or change the name of a existing user, it is not updated in outlook address book. Can anyone help me to sort this issue?.
Regs,
Sachitha.

What is the Outlook client you are using? Is it 2003 or 2007+
You are right, you don;t have to update the OAB manually, the kind of issue you are facing is very know (As far as I experienced). After you update the OAB manually, check the issue and it should be fine.
After that create a Test User and check in Outlook if you see it populated.

Oracle views as MS Outlook address book

Hi again.
During the developing of our Apex enterprise portal, I've compiled a complete set of views managing customers, employees and suppliers information, in an address book format, where you can click over an address, and automatically opening an outgoing e-mail.
After this, all is a MS Outlook and Internet provider issue, and this don't worry me.
But each user, separately manage MS Outlook address books, and obviously this is the opposite what a DBA want to see in his IT infrastructure.
At this point you can suppose we haven't any kind of e-mail server but a direct connection between the PC client and the ISP. It's right, but I would be happy creating an (easy) relation between the database and the mail client.
Somebody believe it could be easy to implement?
Thanks a lot.

Sounds like want you want is an LDAP directory on top of your existing tables / views. You can point Outlook (or any other mail client such as Thunderbird) at an LDAP directory to use as their address book. Oracle Virtual Directory is a perfect fit here, since you can map your existing tables to LDAP structures. Oracle Internet Directory is another option, but it has it's own table structure and might be more trouble than it's worth.

How to i get my contacts on my phone to sync into my address book on my macbook?

i synced my phone to my macbook and the newer contacts wont show up in the addressbook on the laptop. how do i make them sync to the address book from my phone?

What Operating System is your Macbook running? If it's Lion, then you can go into the iCloud control panel in System Preferences, sign in with your Apple ID, and check "Contacts". Then it should sync with your iPhone contacts.
Oh, and make sure your phone is set up with iCloud as well. Of course, only if your Mac is running Lion.
