Email sync with Thunderbird or Outlook 2007

Hey all, I've spent hours on this, so I'm hoping someone can help. I have the Sprint Blackberry Curve, and my laptop O/S is Windows Vista. I'm trying to figure out how (if i can?) to sync my email using the Thunderbird or Outlook 2007 desktop applications and my Curve. Right now I have gmail being sent to either Thunderbird (preferable) or Outlook 07, but I want to be able to reconcile my email on the Curve with the desktop application, not the gmail website. Is this possible? It was easy to do for calendar/contacts. This is personal email, so I do not have access to an enterprise server.
Thank you!

You can do it, but it will cost you a few dollars. Go to http://www.mobical.net and sign up for a free account. It's a full-fledged online PIM, but you can just use the address book if you like. Funambol has a free Thunderbird sync tool that works like a charm, which you can get from http://sourceforge.net/project/downloading.php?group_id=149326&use_mirror=osdn&filename=Funambol-Pim-Plugin-win32-v0.4.5.xpi&53502710. Set it up using the info at https://www.mobical.net/mobical/application/MobicalApplication.html#gwt-faq. Once you've synced your Thunderbird contacts to Mobical, get either the Funambol or Nexthaus SuncML plug-in for your Blackberry, and set it up to sync with Mobical as well. You can get a free trial, after which you have to shell out ~$30 US to buy the plug-in. You can now sync contacts between your BB and Mobical (and other PIM info too if you like).. With the Nexthuas client, you can set up an auto-sync for, say, every 15 minutes (maybe with funambol too, i don't know). So now, you have your Blackberry contacts (+ maybe other data) being wirelessly synced with Mobical every 15 minutes. When you run Thunderbird, you now nice have a nice sync button on your toolbar that you can press whenever you want to sync Thunderbird and vice-versa.
Enjoy!

How can i sync my calendar in Outlook 2007 with iTunes 11.1.3.8 WITHOUT using iCloud?

How can i sync my calendar in Outlook 2007 with iTunes 11.1.3.8 WITHOUT using iCloud?

your link shows how to sync, i know how to do that.
i specifically wanted to sync my outlook calendar with my phone, not my outlook calendar with icloud calendar.
apparently you have to go into setup on phone and tell phone not to sync calendars with icloud so you can get choice to sync phone via itunes.
thanks anyways for trying.

I can't get my email account synced with Thunderbird.

I have a student account with Columbia University (cub mail). I cannot get it synced with Thunderbird. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks!

Login to your webmail (http://yourwebmailaddress) and if you don't know it ask your IT department for it, this is different from loging into outlook, then go to options(upright corener) and click on Mobile Devices, select the device you see there and delete, wait a couplke of minutes then try setting up the E-mail on your phone, if that does not work then ask your IT to make sure you webmail account is not locked since this is how it get sync'd up with your iPhone.

RequestCenter emails not rendering correctly in Outlook 2007

RequestCenter emails not rendering correctly in Outlook 2007
I'm having an problem where the RequestCenter automated emails are losing most of their HTML formatting when viewed in Outlook 2007. When I look at the same email in Outlook 2003, the HTML formatting is fine. Here's a picture of the same email displayed in Outlook 2003 and 2007:
When I view the source HTML of the email, I noticed that there are duplicate HTML, HEAD, and BODY tags that have been automatically added by RequestCenter. Apparently these extra tags are ignored by Outlook 2003, but cause problems with Outlook 2007.
This picture shows the HTML source in RequestCenter's HTML editor compared to the HTML source from within Outlook with the extra tags.
I tried removing the HTML, HEAD, and BODY tags in the HTML editor, but the editor puts the tags back in when you save it.
Does anyone know how to fix this?
Thanks,
Scott

We've actually had the same problem and had opened a ticket with customer care - it's the editor that's in the version we have (or had, since we are going through the upgrade). What we've had to do is embed xml tags in the body of the email too, and then the team that processes the email has a little application that will process the data in the tags and strip the HTML that the editor applies. Not much help, I know.
I've heard a rumor that the issue is fixed in 2007 with the new text editor - I'

iPhone Calendar wiped out after sync with an empty Outlook 2003 Calendar.
Unable to restore from backup as my iPhone was backed-up before I realised my calendar info was gone.

Email sync with outlook 2007

Hi Everyone, I would like some help sync my email with outlook 2007. I am a new user and don't know whether this is possible so please forgive for the ingnorance.

Hello Ljo,
Thank you for your question regarding synchronizing your BlackBerry smartphone Calendar and Microsoft Outlook.
Which BlackBerry model and version of BlackBerry Device Software are you running on it? http://bbry.lv/iubM23
When more than one calendar exists on your BlackBerry smartphone, one calendar is set as the default. To confirm which calendar is set to default, click the Options icon from the Home screen and select Advanced Options > Default Services.
Note: For BlackBerry 6, click the Options icon and select Device > Advanced System Settings > Default Services.
Make sure that the default Calendar is the one that you are adding the new entries on.
If this is the case, please contact your mobile service provider and request that they contact BlackBerry on your behalf.
Thank you.

Email Sync with Outlook

Is there any program which will sync my email on my E2 with Outlook 2007? I would like the sync to occur each time that I do a hotsync.
Post relates to: Tungsten E2

Yes, I have checked the Palm support page and the software that came with the E2. Palm provides an application called Versamail but it does not work with Outlook, it is intended for going on the web and download email.
Also, I do not understand your comment "post in forums, PMs for personalized help are not community oriented and will not be responded to". Did I not post this in a forum for the appropriate item?

Lack of email sync with Outlook may result in returned BB Classic

Our company president (who is responsible for 15 companies worldwide) recently got a BB Classic and we were extremely disappointed to find a lack of either an "auto-bcc on send" option or a way to sync her email in the hub to Outlook 2013.
I was led by tech support to believe that Blend would do this, but all it does is provide a mirror of the hub on the PC. This is all well and good if the user wishes to remain only inside the BB ecosystem. Unfortunately, a lot of businesses center their email ecosystem around Outlook, and those in management want to have their sent messages available to them in both places.
Why has RIM seemingly dropped such functionality from BB10 when iPhones and Androids have these functions right out of the box? This seems like a blunder of epic proportions given that RIM was on the verge of irrelevance not so long ago. Taking away features that business people rely upon is no way to win back would-be converts to other platforms.
And with RIM not allowing third-party email solutions on Blackberry World, there's no option to replace BB Mail with something that adds those features missing from BB Mail. I realize this is because of a focus on high security email, but if the user isn't utilizing that function why force the user to use an email client that doesn't meet their needs?
Taking features away from users is a good way to ensure users go elsewhere and don't return. And with RIM's situation in the market lately, this doesn't bode well for the "comeback" they're hoping for.
I know this is mostly a user-supported forum, but I'm hoping someone at RIM will see this and perhaps take heed of it.

Active Sync exists for such a reason. I don't understand why people think they need to connect their phones physically to make the synchronizations. Most premium mail servers support active sync. Set it up on the phone and it will sync all data automaticaly. Also this auto BCC I never understood why people cry so much about it. I have set in my office an Axigen mail server and use my phone via IMAP. I see all folders and emails in realtime push. When I send an email from my BlackBerry without even BCC I see it on my pc under the send folder and viceversa. I think people are used doing things the long way around and can't accept that things can be done easier today!
Good luck with your new endeavour me totally loving the Classic.

Vista & Outlook 2007: Sync with second XP & Outlook 2003 - The passed buffer is too small for the reply data

Dear Community,
I'm synchronising my T3 with two PCs. One with Vista & Outlook 2007 and the other with XP & Outlook 2003. Both with the latest conduit & Hotsync Manager versions installed for each OS based on the availability on the Palm Website.
My problem is that when I synchronise the T3 with either PC and then try to sync it with the other I'm receiving the following error message for the Calendar:
Outlook Calendar
The passed buffer is too small for the reply data.
OLERR:0D-0008
OLERR:0D-0004
OLERR:0D-0001
- Slow Sync
Outlook Calendar synchronization failed
The second time the sync is successful but takes a long time and the actual problem is that it creates duplicates for records previously changed on either PC - but with a sync in between those changes, i.e. no conflict in the sense that the same record was changed in both environments since the last sync. I have configured the conflict handling to establish a hierarchy PC1-T3-PC2 but try to avoid them by synchronising as often as possible.
Has anyone come across that problem or any ideas? Can you somehow adjust the buffer size for the sync? I have been using Lotus Organiser & then the various Outlook versions for a number of years.
Thank you
Rainer

As they say on TV, "Doh"!!!
I figured out the problem. I started the Sync tool, selected "Settings", then "Mcrosoft Outlook" tab and then "Select Folders" button. I browsed to the proper folders in Outlook (Calendar, Tasks, etc). Select OK enough times and retried the sync.
It worked.

Sync with Thunderbird

Are there any projects underway that will allow my RIM device to sync with my Thunderbird email through Desktop manager for contacts?

Matt098 wrote:
Xandrex, that's a functional workaround if you're using the BlackBerry data services. I'm using a BlackBerry without these services and need an offline solution to sync Thunderbrid and Lightning. Is there one?
one solution is to synchronize Thunderbird & Lightning with Mail & Calendar on your Microsoft Outlook installation.
But if you do not wish to use Microsoft Outlook (I can perfectly understand that ), you can look at using Funambol as a middleware :

No Sync with Imac and Outlook for mac 2011

Hello,
just bought a new bb torch, but it does not synchronise with outloop (office for mac 2011).
no contacts, no agenda.
I can not choose which agenda/contacts.
It looks like the Torch goes to the standard email progam of Imac and not to Outlook.
The only contacts are the standard contacts from addressbook imac.
thanks in advance,
rob

I have just discovered the same thing - if you do a search around the topic you will find it confirmed that the only thing that will sync with Outlook for Mac is contacts.
I've just moved everything over from a PC to a Mac and so to find it not working is so frustrating.
SORT IT OUT RIM - or at least assure us you're working on it.

Can't sync Palm Centro and Outlook 2007/Windows 7 - please help!

Hello,
I've never posted on a forum, but I'm at my wits end...! I've been trying to get my Palm Centro to sync Contacts/Calendar/Memos to Outlook 2007 on my new laptop for a week now with no success. It used to sync just fine to my old computer with Windows XP and Outlook 2003. Then that computer crashed (my Outlook files were backed up on an external harddrive). I received my new computer with Windows 7 XP (32-bit) and Outlook 2007.  I've downloaded the Palm Desktop 6.2, Windows 2007 Conduit, and Software Update 1.03 (Windows installer) for Centro for Verizon.
When I sync my phone to my new Outlook, it completes all 12 steps, but does not load Contacts/Calendar/Memos to Outlook.  This is a list of the error messages:

Can someone please help me transfer Contacts/Calendar/Memos from my Palm Centro to my computer's Outlook 2007?
I've ready about 3rd party software in posts (Pocket Mirror), but I don't know if it applies here because the Contact/Calendar/Memo information is in my Centro - not in Outlook. I need to get it from my Centro to Outlook 2007.
Any help is greatly appreciated! Thank you!

I have a Pre Plus and am using CompanionLink software. If the Centro is like the Plus (which I believe it is) it will not sync with Outlook. Here is a link to Companion Link:

I have been using this and it works great. On their site you can choose the phone and the particular program you need to sync with and choose which you way you want to sync.
Hope this helps
Sorry hat, the Centro has absolutely nothing in common with a webOS device! It runs PalmOS. Nice of you to reply with your suggestion though!
@SyncHelpPlease: OLERR errors are covered in this Palm KB article:
http://kb.palm.com/wps/portal/kb/common/article/31167_en.html
Something I noticed in your post - you installed Palm 6.2.2 AND the 2007 conduit. Palm Desktop 6.2.2. has the 2007 conduits built into it already, and the patch is not needed. Whether this is the cause of your problems, I'm not sure, but I've fielded several posts of the same issue where the user did the same thing you did!
I'd suggest doing a clean uninstall, and reinstall of Palm Desktop 6.2.2 only.
I admit, I do not use Outlook, nor Win7, so I'm giving you my best guess at a way to solve your problem. Hopefully, this may lead to a solution!

HT1692 sync between iPhone and Outlook 2007

first time sync went perfectly well. Now it doesn't sync anymore. It seems to be synchronising, but it does not. How come???

i use outlook for my work email, but my personal email is in gmail. besides work email, i do not use outlook at all.
i get my work email on my iPhone, but i do not sync calendars and contacts as i have to use an imap connection for work, and this does not allow for calendar or contact syncing.
i have seen a gmail/outlook sync tool, but i am afraid i do not use it so i can not offer any help with it.
