Email type set to work after sync with Outlook 2003

I just spent a while going through my mail contacts on the iPhone setting them all properly - 'home' email if it was a personal address and 'work' if it was their work address. It appears that all email addresses show as 'work' ones when you start out. I just came up and connected the iPhone to the PC for it to update Outlook, and now all the Contact email types are all back to 'work' again on the iPhone.
Does anyone know how to avoid this?
Thanks,
Tom

I had this happen to me on numerous occasions. I never was able to figure out where the numbers went to, so I started using google sync which uses PUSH through(Microsoft exchange). Its free and it works well because it always keeps a copy of my contacts on my gmail account. As I add them to my phone they are sync'd and stored in my Gmail contacts. I love it especially when I have to restore my iPhone or something to that nature. All I have to do is put the account info back into my iPhone and two seconds later all my contacts are back on my phone. Plus you do not have to sync your phone with Outlook every time you get a new contact... Hopefully everything works out well for you!!!

  • 9320 not syncing with Outlook 2003

    Hi,
    I've given up trying to get a calendar app that will display calendar and tasks logically like Touch Pro used to when it was possible to register it. Now the problem is my 9320 has stopped syncing with Outlook 2003, first it was tasks, then notes and now calendar items too, so I'm fast running out of a reason to use the thing.
    As everything is getting more and more cloud based will it be possible to sync with the new Outlook calendar in Windows Live? Failing that can I make it talk to my offline Outlook calendar?
    Thanks,
    Craig

    I don't think so for legacy (it works quite well with BB10)...legacy has a limited set of services with which Calendar/Contact sync can function OTA.

    Lacking any further description than you provided (e.g., error messages), I can only suggest this thread:

    It starts with a process for cleanly starting over, and there is some discussion, and there is also a post (15) with links to older Desktop Software versions, if those are needed. Note that this is not, by any means, guaranteed to work...but it has worked for many to resolve issues they are having.
    Good luck!

  • Help- unable to sync with outlook 2003 since update

    Since I updated to 1.01.1, I have not been able to sync with outlook 2003.
    In trying to find the problem, I went to Outlook-tools- options etc until I got to the box "itunes outlook addin" and checked it as I did when I originally set up the iphone. Somehow it had become unchecked.
    I then tried to sync but it didn't work. I went to the "itunes outlook addin box" again and saw it was unchecked. I can't get it to stay checked since I did the firmware update through this computer. Anyone having the same problem? Anyone know how to correct it?

    In Outlook, click on Help / About / Disabled Items. Is the iTunes add-in checked there? Uncheck it if it is.

    Do you have windows mobile device center installed(WMDC)? If not download it from here http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/en-us/downloads/microsoft/device-center-download.mspx
    Be sure you download the correct version for your PC. If you have 32bit OS or 64bit OS. To find this out, right click on Computer under start and select properties. Near the middle it should say 32bit or 64bit. If you know you have the correct software. Open up the control panel and go to sync settings. Right click on the partnership you have setup and select delete. On your device go to Start-->Programs-->Activesync-->Menu-->Options tap on Windows PC and select Delete. Then once both are done resetup your partnership. But this time uncheck everything. Then once it is done syncing. Go to Mobile device settings and change content sync settings and select Contact. Click save and let it sync. Do the same for calendar, tasks, and notes but leave the last item checked. So when Contacts are done syncing you go and check Calendar and leave Contacts

  • Windows 7 -64 bit syncing with Outlook 2003 not working

    Hello all,
    I have a Dell Vostro 1720 (64-bit) with MS-Office 2003 (32-bit), in German language.
    My Iphone 3GS (Dutch language) won't sync any contacts or appointments with Outlook 2003. There is no error message, Itunes seems to think everything is OK. Resetting the sync history in Itunes has no effect. Telling Itunes to replace all contacts and calendars has no effect either. I have disabled third-party Outlook COM add-ins (there was a Norton antispam entry there).
    Strangely, the syncing of Outlook notes DOES work. As does the syncing of Internet Explorer bookmarks. I am at a loss.
    Can anyone PLEASE point me to some help?
    Arthur (the desperate)

  • Can't setup sync with Outlook 2003

    When I try to setup the Blackberry desktop to sync with Outlook calendar, the process works fine and it says I did it, but when I hit "finish," it acts as if I haven't done it yet and asks me to do the setup.  Backup is working fine.  This started when I upgraded a while ago.  I just upgraded to version 6.6.6.43, but that doesn't help. 

    Happens to me also!

  • Nokia 6681 sync with outlook 2003 - issues

    After synchronisation of phone with outlook 2003, where there are multiple phone number under single contact some numbers only gets imported into outlook contacts. For example. under one name, I have three office numbers, two home numbers, two mobile numbers. In outlook contacts only two office numbers, one home number and one mobile gets imported. Others are omitted. This means that I do not get 100% complete back up of contacts. In case my handset is destroyed or corrupted I will have only an incomplete contacts list. Further, number under "fax" does not get imported into outlook, but number under Fax (business) only getts imported. How to ensure that fields used in handset and outlook are identical so that during synchronisation 100% import is done

  • Outlook 2003 old Data File can't be removed and can't set up up iCloud sync with Outlook

    I had an issue with Google Calendar Sync after installing iCloud so I tried to remove my iCloud install.  When I go into Outlook 2003 it shows a Data File that exists with the iCloud name, but when I click on remove it comes back with "Äre You Sure....", I click yes and then an error states "The Requested Operation Failed." Then I try to click on the Settings Tab and I get the error "Än Unknown Error Occured, error code 0x8004011c".  The Open Folder tab is grayed out.  If I click on the E-mail tab, no iCloud email exists.  Hence something is lingering but I cannot get rid of it.
    When I go into the iCloud Control Panel the Mail, Contacts, Calendar and Tasks with Outlook is not ticked.  If I try to tick it and then apply the changes, it goes through the set-up for a few seconds and then returns an error box entitled Outlook Setup for iCloud with an error message Outlook Setup Error with a yellow triangle with an exclamation mark inside of it.  The options are "report", "try again" and "cancel" - all which are useless and don't do anything.
    Anyone have any ideas on how I can remove this Data File that supposedly exists within Outlook.  I have searched the c: drive and there is nothing by the name it states.

    Sorry...I have been looking at this for too long.  It is actually Outlook 2007.
    I actually have already removed the calendar, tasks, etc from Outlook as your last paragraph outlines, but it doesn't help.
    I have hoping to avoid the uninstall / reinstall, but I was leaning the same way.
    Thanks for your response.  Let me know if you think of anything else.

  • All contacts lost after Syncing with Outlook (Windows)

    Hi folks,
    i had sorted out all of my wifes contacts on her iPhone. You know, all had proper phone numbers, street adresses, e-mail adresses and so on.
    Than i wanted to sync them to my Outlook, but i didn't want some old Outlook contacts to get on the phone, so i removed all Outlook contacts from the contacts folder (made a backup, clever me).
    Then i set the iPhone to sync contacts with outlook. iTunes asked if it's allright if more than 5% of my PC contacts are beeing changed, i clicked "Yes", figured the contacts on the phone are whats interesting to me, nevermind the contacts on the pc.
    So here's what itunes did:
    It copied two new contacts from the iphone which previously haven't been on the pc, to the pc and deleted all the rest from the iphone (except the two new).
    Since the iPhone was my only source of the new and improved contacts, all my work that i have put in there (better part of three hours) is gone.
    I am not sure if i should shout, scream or just enter it all again with dignity...
    Is there any way to restore the contacts? Or to prevent something like this from happening again?

    Yep me too. Installed 10.2 onto my Windows 7 PC. Had no issues sycning with Windows Contacts previously, now I can't get them onto my iPhone 4 at all. Tried all the suggestion from Apple Support, still nothing.
    Very unimpressed.

  • Private records are no longer private after sync with Outlook 2007

    I just synced my Palm Zire 71 with Outlook 2007 for the first time.  All went well except that my private notes were no longer private.  This means that anyone who gets a hold of my handheld and downloads to their Outlook would have all my private information.  Is there a fix for this?
    Post relates to: Zire 71

    Well, I fixed my problem.
    I'm not sure how or why, and I'm not sure it'll work for anyone else, but here's what I did.
    1. I started by making a backup copy of my Outlook calendar, as I always do.
    2. Next, I deleted all the appointments from my Outlook calendar, except for two. No special reason why I left those two in; it was just convenient and I don't think it made any difference.
    3. Next, I sync'd Outlook with my iPhone. This produced an empty calendar on the iPhone (except for the two leftover appointments). This is a big step forward. Previously, syncing would produce no change on the iPhone. Now the two calendars actually match, so something significant has changed.
    4. Finally, I opened the backed-up Outlook calendar side-by-side with my current (mostly empty) Outlook calendar and copy-pasted all the appointments back in. One final sync and now Outlook and iPhone have the same calendar, including all appointments!
    5. To test, I made a small change to the Outlook calendar, sync'd, and the change appeared on the iPhone. Then I made a small change to the iPhone calendar, sync'd, and the change appeared in Outlook. Problem solved!
    6. My guess is that deleting (almost) everything from Outlook's calendar must have cleared up some subtle data error. Fortunately, pasting all the appointments back in didn't bring the error back. The delete-copy-paste process seems to "scrub" the data and fix the iTunes sync problem. At least in this case.

    Take a look at http://kb.palm.com solution id 31167 it addresses the OLERR errors typically with only the calendar being a problem it's one of two things
    1. You have calendar events with no end dates - Give these events end dates
    2. You have events that span past midnight - Have these events end on the first day and then a new event start the second day.

  • Unable to sync with outlook 2003 Contacts

    I am using curve 9300. I installed blackberry desktop sw and tried to sync my outlook contacts. The sw read all the 745 contacts and asked me to accept or reject. So when I clicked on accept, it just copied 4 items without any contact details and just crashed and gave an error msg "unknown error". I tried to delete those contacts and it's not allowing me to do so without giving any msg. I dont even get a delete msg on the bb. I even tried to press on menu when I go to the contacts and it won't appear on those particular records. I rebooted the pc and the phone and tried again and got "error encountered, error code 0x80040fb3". I even uninstalled the application and tried ver 4 & 5. The result is the same. I am stuck with those records and can't delete them. Further 740 contact that can't have on my blackberry. I appreciate if someone can help. Thanks

  • Siri stops working after syncing with computer

    I just got my iphone 4s yesterday. Everything was working great until i tried to sync my iphone with my computer and then Siri stop working. It kept saying that "i am having problems connecting to the network." If i restore my iphone it works great again until i try to sync it with my computer. Then Siri stops working again. Does anyone know why this is?

    press and hold home button, siri pops up, then press the mic button to make it stop talking.
    press and hold sleep button, untill you see slide to unlock (Do not slide though)
    after that get rid of THAT message, and try siri again.
    works like a charm
