Complicated, help syncing...

Here's my predicament:
My current computer runs Microsoft Office 2003 w/ Outlook. I have all my contacts/calenders/e-mail on that program.My new laptop is coming in early July [before iPhone 3G comes] and is coming with Office 2007, but its the Home/Student version and DOESN'T include Outlook.
Is there a way for me to use Outlook 2003 no my Office 2007 laptop? Or should I switch to another service to sync my contacts/calenders/email. I was thinking of starting to use my gmail account, but I don't want to have to switch over ALL of my e-mail's on the various sites I'm registered on. Is there anything I can do?
Thanks for any and all help!

If Outlook 2003 is compatible with Vista, and you are able to install Outlook 2003 only with the install package that shipped with your computer, you should be able to install it on your new computer.
I don't know if Outlook 2007 is required with Office 2007.

  • I am setting up a new iMac and need help syncing files to Dropbox.  On my old computer I had it set where when I saved a document, it was saved on my hard drive, as well as to a folder in Dropbox.  I can't remember how I set this up.  Any help?

    The way that Dropbox works is that it keeps a copy of all your files in your local Dropbox folder on your hard drive (which is, by default, directly under your home folder). Adding files to that folder will sync them to the Dropbox server.
    You do of course have to download the Dropbox application to enable this (download link at the top right of http://dropbox.com ).

  • Help syncing iphone to new MacBook Pro

    I got a MacBook Pro for Christmas, and I need help syncing my iPhone to it without losing my pictures, contacts, and music. I already wirelessly shared my iTunes library to from my old mac to the new one. Is there a way to sync my phone to the new computer and transfer my pictures and contacts and the rest of the stuff on my phone to it without losing it all? Or since I wirelessly shared my iTunes library, will my back up still be available?

    There is no phone number for itunes store support.
    Just copy everything from your old computer, or your backup copy of your old computer to the new one.
    You can also transfer itunes purchases from the iphone to the computer.  Without syncing:  File>Transfer Purchases

  • I need help syncing my contacts between Outlook and iPhone using iTunes. I followed the steps given and ended up with just email addresses showing in my contacts even though I have phone numbers and snail mail in my Outlook Contacts. Using  Windows 7

    I need help syncing my contacts between Outlook and iPhone using iTunes. I used the knowldge document and set it up to transfer my Outlook contacts to the iphone using itunes.
    In contacts on the iphone I only see the email addresses.
    Yet in Outlook I have email, snail mail and phone numbers.
    I followed the knowledge document from iphone.
    I did it once, didn't work so deleted all the contacts from the phone and tried again. Same result. I have a PC using Windows 7 64 bit.

    You can't access an Exchange account via ActiveSync with the Address Book and iCal on your Mac.
    You can access a MM account with Outlook on your PC at work and keep your MM email account server stored mailboxes synced between your PC at work, your iPhone, and the MM "cloud". Not sure about syncing MM contact info and calendar events with Outlook at the same time with an Exchange account.
    This will not provide for syncing your Exchange account contact info and calendar events with the Addresss Book and iCal on your Mac because the accounts are separate.
    You can access an Exchange account and a MM account at the same time with the iPhone's mail client, and sync contact info and calendar events over the air with both accounts at the same time. You can view combined contact info or separately for each account, and the same for calendar events.

    Your computer is probably set up to access your Yahoo mail using POP3. POP3 does not synchronize with the server. For full synchronization, you will need to use IMAP instead. See the Yahoo mail help pages for instructions on how to configure your mail client.

Well I want to put all of my music on my Mac, But everytime I plug it in and ask it to sync all music it tells me that I have to erase my Ipod and sync in with the music on my Mac... Gosh its so confusing.

  • ITunes iClould help - syncing and accounts

    We have at our house one PC (Windows Vista) and we (family of 5) have always just used one AppleID.  We have two iPhone 4's since June, three iPod Touchs (newest gen), an older nano and shuffle.  That's our current set-up.  We have had our own playlists and settings, etc.  Everything was fine.  Since going to iCloud - iOS5, now our contacts are merged, each of our apps are on everyone else's device and the syncing is continuously making it hard to get back to where we were. 
    I starting looking into different users on PC, but my first question is, will iTunes sync with all the different users at once or will it on sync with the user that is logged in? I really don't want to set-up 5 users on my PC, especially for 3 kids.
    Second questions.  How do you edit your contact groups once on iCloud? I had a group called "golf" that was synced and now on my wife's phone. I deleted all the contacts in it and on Outlook and it will not go away.  Can one delete it off iCloud?  It seems once something is there it will not remove it. We have edited, synced, turned syncing of contacts on and off and it won't go away.
    Can I set-up five different AppleID's on a single computer? If so, can all five share the same music and video library? From what I have read it can only be done through five user accounts. What about if one user buys a song, will it be in the library of all the others? Then Home Sharing only works with one ID from what I see. So if I have five accounts and purchase another computer I have to have five users on the new computer. Please help. I bought Apple for the ease of use and this is getting very complicated.  
    We were playing around with Find Friends thinking it would be great skiing this year, but since my wife and I are on the same AppleID we cannot track each other and only one person can use it at time. 
    It seems to me Apple is pushing each user in the family to have their own computer and ID. 
    Hopefully someone can please help me have peace again in the house (Mom and Dad with iPhones and 3 kids with Touch's one on PC). What is the best set-up to fit our needs?
    Thank you,
    Ben

    I've read that article numerous times, and I'm trying to upgrade because MobileMe is requiring OS4 in order to work starting in about a month. However, the status box in iTunes hangs, saying Backing up iPhone...the little blue line only goes about 1/20 across the bar in about 1.5 hours. Any advice? (I have an up-to-date version of iTunes.)

  • Help syncing multiple Ipods

    I have several questions I need to get answered before I have a war on Christmas morning.
    1. I bought 2 kids new Ipods for Christmas which will be used on the same PC. How do I sync 2 Ipods on the same PC with out the chance of them deleting each others libraries?
    2. I bought the wife a new Ipod classic and Iphone so I get her old 2nd gen Ipod. How do I sync the new Ipod to her existing library which is on her own laptop? Then how do I keep her music on the old Ipod and sync it to my personal itunes without losing all my music on my laptop?
    Any and all help will be appreciated

    There are basically two methods for managing multiple iPods on one computer. See here:
    Method 1 - Create different Windows users accounts for each iPod on this computer.
    Method 2 - Create a playlist in iTunes for each iPod.
    To make Method 2 work, connect one of your iPods, and click on it in the left-source panel.
    Under the "Music" tab, and set your option for a specific playlist(s) under the "Sync Music" option.
    Do the same with your other iPod; not connected at the same time as the other one, though.
    For more details on this matter, check out Apple's Support article about it:
    How to manage multiple iPods using one computer
    I hope that helps you.

  • Need help syncing 4 ipods on one computer

    Currently we have an Ipod touch, and three ipod nanos' (various generations). The touch is synced on a laptop, two of the nanos are synced on the kids' computer and a new nano is on its way to us now via the apple online store. What I want to do is put all of the ipods on our PC. Not everyone has the same music interest but some songs will be the same in each library. What is the best way to do this. ALSO, my husband and I use one Itunes account while the kids use another.
    I have heard I should create user accounts on our PC for everyone and manage each Ipod through each account but I do not want duplicates of songs taking up space so I was told to create a shared library (just not sure how to do that)
    I have also heard I should use one account and use playlists within that account to sync each ipod. This seems to be the easiest thing to do but wonder if it will work if we have two different itunes accounts.
    Also will I be able to move my apps for my itouch over to the PC (they are on the laptop now) Thanks for any help you can provide.

    Click here for options. The number of iTunes Store accounts doesn't matter unless it's more than five, but the number of libraries does. To transfer the applications, hook up the iPod touch and choose to transfer them from the dialog box which appears or the File menu in iTunes.

  • Help syncing new iPad with Outlook 2007 on my PC and Blackberry Tour 9630

    I have searched for answers and am stumped and frustrated...
    I bought an iPad (am trying to become I-friendly) and thought it would be convenient to be able to sync my “stuff” (Contacts, Calendar and notes) to the iPad so we’ll have access to it while traveling.  I use a Blackberry Tour 9630 and a PC with Outlook 2007.  I have synced them effortlessly for years using Desktop manager.  I make changes to my ‘stuff’ on both phone and PC and when I sync - the most current ‘stuff’ gets placed on both.  Voila!  Not anymore.
    When I set up my iPad to work with iCloud things got screwy.  A LOT of my contacts just disappeared - mainly the ones I use frequently.  Now my Outlook 2007 calendar has three calendars on the screen:
    Calendar in iCloud - pink
    Calendar Merge Conflicts in iCloud - green in a tab behind the pink calendar
    Calendar - blue
    I use a cox email account and my blackberry gives me the choice when deleting an email whether to delete on the device or on the server.  I use that feature a lot when we are traveling for a few weeks.  It is nice to come home with no redundant emails on my PC.
    1-How do I combine all the calendars so I have the same thing on each device, Hoping to stay updated on each when I make changes
    2-Can the iPad email give me the option to delete from the server when viewing an email on a cox.net account?
    I am not an expert but fairly tech savvy and usually can get these things done. I need help!  I appreciate any thoughts or suggestions - Thanks in advance

  • Need help syncing new ipod touch to Itunes.

    I recently bought a brand new Ipod touch 5th gen. I have the latest update for itunes, I want to start syncing music to my Ipod. My computer will not bring any info for this ipod touch into itunes. I had a 4th gen and I know that I seen on the right hand corner, under the search store, there should be a little icon with your Ipod below. No where is my Ipod been found. Every time I plug the USB cord into the computer, I don't see anything come on the screen. All I see is the battery charging on my Ipod. I'm getting frustrated with this Ipod not allowing me to get any music. What am I doing wrong? I also don't see any summary pane for me to reset to factory settings and start all over. how can someone help me on this? I tried turning on and off both the Ipod and computer, nothing, still the same and no Ipod is to be found on itunes.  PLEASE HELP!!

    Just what version of iTunes do you have? For a 5G iPod/iOS 7 you need iTunes 11.1 or later.. If you have a Mac yo need OSX 10.6.8 or later.
    Does the iTunes still see the 4G iPod?
    If necessary:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X
    Or
    See
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    - I would start with
    Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
    or              
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
    However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Features app in the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
    - New cable and different USB port
    - Run this and see if the results help with determine the cause
