Mail for Exchange - calendar sync fails

Hi,
I upgraded recently my N73 with the latest release of the firmware and the latest release of Mail For Exchange.
Before that change, I had no problem to sync my mobile phone with our server Exchange 2007.
Unfortunately, after the upgrades, like many other people of this forum, I cannot succeed in synchronizing my calendar (it seems that my mobile phone is stuck in the endless loop). I've tried the various solutions written in the other posts of this forum but without success (define an end-date of recurring events, no blank event, ...).
Does anyone solved the issue ?
Thank you in advance !

Hi,
I uninstalled the last release of MfE. I reinstalled an old version (2.05.003) and it worked immediately ! So many people are spending so much time with the last release trying to sync calendar... :-(

E72 Mail for Exchange calendar sync

I have problems with repeating calendar events.
Example:
I create event 1.6.2011, repeating every week for one year. I have set in phone to remove calendar events older than 3 week.
After 3 week from 1.6.2011 all events from that repeating meeting are deleted from phone, including events which are in future.
Does anyone has similar experiences?

Latest version for Nokia E72 is 83.003 or at least 071.004 depending on your region.
I suggest you update your phone since the version you are using have issues with Exchange 2010 server and does not support it properly
. version 071.004 and above have support for Exchange 2010
If you cant get this version I recommend that you contact a Nokia Care point and ask them to update your phone software

N9 Mail for Exchange: Calendar sync incomplete

Hi all,
I've set my N9 (64 GB, PR1.3) to sync with Outlook Exchange 2010. Everything used to work nicely, but recently I discovered that not all calendar entries are synced to my device. Some appointments that show up in Outlook (and on other devices I sync with that account) simply do not show up on my N9.
So far I've tried deleting my MfE account on my N9 and the N9 account on the Exchange server and setting it all up again with a full new sync. Also I've played around with appointment details, but that doesn't make any difference.
Any solutions? Help is much appreciated.

are these items more than 39 days from the current date?
if so, this is a bug that was introduced with pr1.3
it is really bad too, if you ask me. Makes planning ahead very difficult without using your webcalendar or outlook to see it.
you can enter the item in your n9, and you can still see it until you have a completed sync, then it disappears from your n9, but is still there. it will show up on your outlook. also, if you input it in outlook and you sync, it will show that you synced 1 item, but you will not be able to see it.
i found out 39 days because i put in a new entry, numbered, for each day and that was the last day that i was able to see consistantly.
if that is the case, then there is no way to fix it at the moment, but rest assured that you did not loose that appointment.

E60 Mail for Exchange Calendar Sync Issues

Hello all,
I'm able to sync my email, calendar and my contacts. However I've noticed that some of my calendar items have not been sync'd.
For instance, I might have A, B, C, D as appointments in the same day and in that order. I'll only have appointments A, C, D display on my E60.
Before anyone asks, I don't get any error messages and yes, I've checked the logs on the handset.
Any ideas?
Cheers, Krish.

E52 Mail For Exchange Stopped Syncing

I have an E52 (one week old). Mail For Exchange was syncing well for mail, contacts and calendar with an Exchange Server 2007. Sync over port 443 usual access point... No change on server.
Today my phone has stopped syncing. My admin log.txt files looked OK until yesterday afternoon then filled up with text just showing the settings. REstarted the phone, no luck and no additions to the admin logs...
How do I do a full resync??
Just done a hard reset and reset up the mail for exchange and everything syncs OK.. I see there is another post on the same subject. When is Nokia going to look at this??

E52: 034.001, note the same issue I found on E75

Looking for exchange calendar sync groupcal *****

Looking for exchange calendar sync system to replace sucky groupcal.
I've had nothing but problems with it. I get duplicate calendars, duplicate calendar entries, and the daemon stops updating from the
then the support folks are threatening to cut off support and no longer help me to fix their broken code!
I wasted money and so much time on this app, is there anything else out there that does a better job?

Not to mention that it doesn't work with Leopard now! I wish there was a way to get my Exchange calendar to sync to a third party that would sync with iCal 3.0. Since there is not support for CalDAV it would be nice if Exchange would support this!

N9 after PR 1.2 update - Mail for Exchange is sync...

I have a problem with my N9 Meego after 1.2 update. I have mail for exchange account talking with exchange 2010 server and sync works just just fine with calendar and e-mail. Contacts on otherhand doens`t work. It says its bringing contact like 78 from mail for exchange but when its done you can`t see any.
i have done my account again many times but still contacts aren`t working. Should I do some hardreset but does that uninstall PR 1.2 update?
Help is needed or any ideas what could be done?
-mika

Hey mate, As far as I am aware there is no going back from PR 1.2, so you could try hardreset without concern of loosing this update. Keep in mind you are likely to lose data, so make sure you back it up first.
I am sure of this, as I have tried to go back to PR 1.1 to get my mail exchange to work and even with trying to flash the device "downgrade disallowed" comes up and prevents me getting rid of the PR 1.2
You are luckier than me, I can't get mail, calender or contacts. I am so annoyed that I accepted the update. I am hoping that Nokia take note of this and fix the mail exchange in a new update

E61 - Mail for Exchange Calendar fault

Running latest version (1.3), able to fully sync email and contacts, but it fails to sync calendar, with not so helpful message of error in commuincation.
Any ideas?

I hvae been fighting this Issue for some time now.
I Have been runing the MfE on E50, E51, E65, E66 and N96 syncing towards an Exchange 2003 Std. with no problems Whatso ever... After upgrading to Exchange 2007 Std. Users are starting to experience the same Issue. Older Phones with old firmware and old MfE, are not affected... but the E51 fw 200 220 and 300 are having this issue..
the problem is quite annoying because I weren´t having any problems on my N96, but then suddenly the calendar fails..
TEmporary fix:
1: disable calendar sync.
2: do a sync.
3: enable calendar sync.. (initial setting can be "keep items on phone" or "delete items on phone")
then it will work for some time.. and then the problem will come back.-. (Frustrating!!)
I have been e-mailing NOKIA denmark AND Finland but they seems to more interested in redirecting my calls to Voice response systems..
And sending replies informing me that they REALLY DO CARE.. and Thait I´ll be contacted within 48 hrs..
I´ll keep You Posted..

Mail for Exchange - Calendar Alarms Problem

Hi there,
I have MfE working brilliantly, but there is one small issue that is bothering me.
I also use PC Sync to syncronise with Outlook at home. Everything works fine, and I use Outlook at home to set up the majority of my appointments and these obviously get synced to my work exchange server.
The issue is that if I have an alarm set on one of these appointments and I "Dismiss" it at work, MfE then effectively deletes the original appointment and creates a new one without an alarm; rather than just modifying the existing one.
When I then syncronise at home it does the same and as the Nokia doesn't syncronise Categories I then lose my categories.
I have a feeling it is to do with the "owner" of the appointment on Exchange as appointments syncronised are owned and organised by myself whereas ones created directly on Outlook at work don't specify an organiser or owner.
Has anyone else experienced this?
Any ideas?
Cheers,
Ian

Hi m4e_team_k,
Thanks very much for your response, I am grateful for your time.
I will describe how I use my phone so you should be able to better understand what I'm doing.
I use PC Sync to syncronise my phone with my Personal laptop on which I generally manage my calendar but it is NOT connected to an exchange server at all.
I use MfE to syncronise with the Exchange server at work as this is also required.
It seems that whenever any change is made on Exchange to an appointment (whether it be to change the category or even cancel an alarm or add notes to the description) MfE cannot syncronise the item, but instead it deletes the original on the phone and then creates a new one.
Now probably this would go unnoticed to most users, but PC Sync then does the same which causes me to lose my categories on Outlook on my Personal PC.
It seems that MfE cannot modify appointments, but simply deletes any changed ones and replaces with server copies.
Until recently I have used Sony Ericsson handsets and this set-up works flawlessly with these.
I have tried using RoadSync and this simply modifies the entries where there are changes rather than deleting and re-creating (but it is very resource-hungry). So it appears to be a flaw in MfE's implementation of syncronisation.
I appreciate your assistance.
Thanks,
Ian.

Calendar Sync Problems with mail for exchange on e...

Hello!
I upgraded my Nokia e52 to Software version 033.002.216.01 but now I am unable to sync with my mail for exchange Calendar. Settings are correct (in calendar settings Default mailbox is Mail for Exchange and in Email settings Calendar sync is "Yes") and I am still able to sync e-mail, but not calendar items.
Can anyone help me with this issue? Does anyone have the same problem after software upgrade?

I haven't solve the problem yet. Waiting for new firmware, might be it will solve the problem...

Mail for Exchange outlook not syncing all calendar...

Hi,
Nokia E6 Anna using mail for exchange to sync outlook.com/hotmail calendar. Recently switched phone so would like my entire outlook.com calendar to appear on E6.
I added mail for exchange hotmail account to phone selecting email, calendar and contacts. However only recurring calendar entries sync. Old single appointments do not sync/appear on the E6. Why is that ?
Are there any specific calendar settings for mail for exchange ? Mail for exchange/settings has no mention of calendar.
I use hotmail connector to sync desktop outlook 2010 and outlook.com. Syncing calendar in nokia suite results in duplicate 'Mail for Exchange' calendars so no good.
If known issue that's OK. A solution would be good.
thanks,

I have solved this myself.

E71 - Mail for exchange syncs calendar only partly

I'm pretty new to using the Mail for Exchange (latest version from Ovi) application in my E71, had a 3rd party software that handled pim sync before.
Any how, the company has moved from Lotus Notes to Microsoft Exchange 2010 and in that process migrated data from Notes to Exchange. For some reason the Mail for Exchange application syncs only entrys changed or created in Exchange, older entrys migrated from Notes unchanged wont show up in the handset.
I have verified with handsets from other vendors that this is not an server/active sync error, fore example Apples iPhone will sync every entry. How come, anyone has any ideas?

Go to OVI store on your E71 and download Mail for Exchange.

N9 Mail for Exchange Sync failure

I just got the N9 and when setup my mfe account I got a error with " mandatory Mail for Exchange server policy failed. Access refused."
On my previous E7 works fine and never got a problem.
Any tip to solve this problem?

I have the same problem, I have tried out all thinkable combination’s of port 80, 443, Non-provisionable devide, but nothing works. I can log on to the web exchange server I can see that the N9 has been in connection, but it seems that it fails before completing.
My company exchange server forces me to create a phone lock code and that remains active even after deleting the exchange account. I am not able to change this, only by resetting the phone deleting everything I can get rid of the code.
I have no doubt, that this is something to do with the settings on the company exchange server that are very strict. And the N9 can for some reason not deal with this.
I can use the exchange account with no problems on my e52, 5800 and N8 so the problem is the N9 and not the server.

E71 Mail for Exchange problem

I've set up a few of these adn had no problems but yesterday I set up 3 off E71-b exactly the same as always and all now have the same problem: when powering on you get the message "allow to send and receive......" answering "yes" then gives "testing network" and then then the Email setup wizard starts again. If you then cancel the Wizard the phone synchs properly with Head Office's Exchange Server. It means the users have to exit teh wizard at evry start-up. Any help would be much appreciated.

Guys -- I had the same problem but I think I figured it out. Menu>MfE>Mail for Exchange>Content synced> Synchronize Calendar (choose yes, ditto Contacts and Tasks)>then follow the stupid menu logic that doesn’t actually save any changes unless you save each individual change or something and finally choose “in case of conflict server always wins”> and double check to make sure it is always looking for changes. I tested it with new calendar and contact entries on my corp. mail account and they showed up almost immediately on the e71.
Cripes. Good luck.

Mail for Exchange/Asha 311 - how to reset

I want to use Mail for Exchange to sync contact data with gmail, as I did on the Nokia 700 (think it was called Active Exchange there). I configured it similarly, and it seemed hung in a loop trying to connect. So I reset it, and then it wouldn't restart. It flashes a screen of data (too fast to read - something about Synchronization service shutdown ... Removing databases .. Application will restart when complete?). I tried reinstalling over the app from the Nokia store - and get the same results. Rebooted a few times - same thing.
Is there any way to reset this and/or remove the app completely? I really need this to work since syncml doesn't work either.
Thanks,
Doug

Then it is getting complicated becuase I never tried alternatives A and B myself:
A) On a computer with MobiMB, access drive A » Menuapps » Mfe » and delete all files except the JAD and the JAR. More details …
B) Nokia » Menu » Sync and backup » Create backup (microSD required) » on a computer you extract this ZIP file and remove the Record-Management-Store files (.rms). Reset the whole phone and restore this modfied backup. More details …
C) With a computer, Nokia Software Recovery Tool
However, I am not sure whether Google still allows new devices for Exchange ActiveSync. Therefore, I do not think that app will ever work for you. Or do you have a ‘Google Apps for Business’ account?
