Numbers in Outlook Express won't Sync?

I know this topic has been rehashed several times, but I've read these and no help.
I had the numbers from old phone put on flash drive, downloaded to computer, converted using the program ATT suggested and exported to Outlook Express. But when I tried sync-ing several times, they don't show up on the iphone? Please help as I'd have to reenter 200+ numbers!
Thanks, Flash

I too have the same problem! Boy am I glad (ok not really) to hear I'm not the only one.
I set the options in iTunes to sync the calendar/contacts to Outlook (2003). My iTunes (music) is syncing fine, but anything coming from Outlook is NOT. I manually entered in 4 contacts on the iPhone and synced it up and did not receive any dialog (on computer) that said the contacts will be overwritten (as user guide described). However, when I deleted those same 4 contacts from the iPhone, then I did receive a dialog saying that they were deleted from iPhone and changes would be applied to the computer (but then they were not as I did not see the contacts disappear from Outlook).
I found some online help on Apple that referred to troubles with syncing and described restarting iPhone and re-installing iTunes. I tried that and no change.
I also tried the reset sync data history as described by previous poster, and no change.
I read in the user guide that the sync is supposed to be bi-directional (changes made in iPhone go to computer and vice versa) but so far I'm only seeing any changes that I make on iPhone go back onto iPhone.
If anyone finds a solution to this problem, please post!

  • Tungsten E & Outlook 2007 won't sync

    Hello.  I just moved to a new laptop with Outlook 2007 and Win XP Pro.  It's the same exact setup I had on my old laptop, but now my Palm E2 won't sync.  I've reinstalled the latest Palm software and Outlook conduits twice, and done a hard reset on my Palm E twice.  The sync appears to run as if there is no problem, but nothing updates.  The log says each sync ran correctly:
    HotSync operation started 09/27/10 09:58:30
    OK Calendar
    OK Contacts
    OK Tasks
    OK Memos
    OK Note Pad
    Quick Install - Sync configured to Do Nothing.
    System - sync configured to Do Nothing
    HotSync operation complete 09/27/10 09:58:34
    But nothing actually updated.  I am showing data that's weeks old (I had given up and decided just not to use my Palm any more, because I was so frustrated).   Can you help? 
    Thanks.

    Post relates to: Tungsten E

    You stated you installed the latest version of PD. Is it 6.2? Go to help-about to check the version number.
    If you do, go to start-programs-palm-PIM conduit sync and change the sync to Outlook. The Outlook 2007 conduits are built-in in 6.2. See if this may work.
    In hotsync manager, does it show (Outlook) beside each of the 4 basic conduits?
    For reference purposes, click on the following link for the support page for your device on the kb.palm.com webpage.

  • Outlook 2010 won't sync over the air with my iPhone 4s

    I got my iphone 4s at the same time that my work switched to Outlook 2010.  Now I can only sync calendars manually and not automatically over the air as I enter appointments.  Plus, only appointments entered on the PC will sync with the phone - appointments entered on the phone won't sync with my work calendar at all. What's going on???  I don't know if it's a phone issue or an Outlook 2010 issue, since both changed at the same time. I did notice that new appointments typed on my phone are a different color than those entered on my PC, if that matters at all (it may just be a new feature of ios5).

  • 8830 & Desktop Manager does not recognize Outlook Express 2000, cannot sync

    I just installed Desktop Manager 5.0 and connected to my BB 8830.  I use Outlook Express 2000 for calendar and I want to sync it with my BB 8330.  However, in Desktop Manager under Sync / Config / Select Device for calendar, the only choices are Yahoo and Import/Export Text.  Obviously it is not recognizing Outlook Express 2000 as a calendar program.  Does anyone have a solution?
    I bought this 8830 mainly to sync its calendar with my Outlook Express calendar.  If it does not work, then I am going to return it to my cell phone carrier.
    Solved!

    Hi and welcome to the forums!
    Outlook 2000 has not been supported since Desktop Manager 4.2.

    I would check on Outlook 2003, still supported by MS and the cheapest version still available.

  • My Outlook calendar won't sync with my ipod touch and vice versa.  Wherever I input the info is where it stays. Contacts and notes sync but not calendar.

    My iPod Calendar won't sync with my Outlook Calendar and vice versa.  Wherever I input the information is where it stays.  My contacts and notes sync just fine.  Please help.  Very frustrated.  It used to work just fine.  I just upgraded to iTunes 10.2 version.

    I have the same problem since I updated to iTunes 10.2 Sue (I think). For me this was somewhere in January.
    I wasn't sure iTunes was the issue, until I read your post. I tested syncing a note, and that works fine.
    My 2nd generation Ipod Touch runs on IOS 4.2.1. It won't upgrade to 4.3.
    Possibly the synchonisation between iTunes 10.2 and IOS 4.2.1 doesn't work correctly.
    Has somebody else solved this isue? I use both calendars (on iPod Touch and on PC) for work and private matters.
    Otherwise I have to uninstall iTunes 10.2 and downgrade to 10.2.

  • Outlook 2013 won't sync thru iCloud -- workaround

    On a Windows 8 PC, Outlook 2013 will not sync calendar and contacts with i devices thru iCloud.  Until Apple and/or Microsoft address the compatibility issue, there is a reasonable workaround.  Use Outlook 2013 only for mail.  For calendar  and contacts, go to icloud.com and use the apps there.  User interface is almost identical with the apps on i devices, and these two apps sync perfectly thru iCloud.  I believe the Outlook 2013/iCloud compatibility problem exists regardless of which version of Windows is being used, but I have experience only with Win 8 on this issue..

    Outlook 2013 is not a supported iCloud client, there are no official 'workarounds' but the mehod you describe will suffice.
    Using MS Exchange with Outlook is a far superior method of synchronizing Contacts, Calendars. Notes and Tasks.

  • Outlook 2010 won't sync with iCloud on the web

    Outlook 2010 Calendar syncs with the iCloud Calendar in Outlook. Both are visible in Outlook, both are ticked. Calendar Sync is set up in iCloud Control Panel 2 and on settings on my iPhone & iPad. However, appointments don’t show in iPhone, iPad or iCloud on the web.

    Here's what I've discovered: Outlook has two "versions," one for iCloud and one that is an Outlook data file ("My calendar"). You can check a box in Outlook to enable either of them (go to the Home tab and expand the navigation pane). The iPad does not sync with the Outlook data file. Anything entered there has to be manually copied to the iCloud version of Outlook in order to sync with iPad. So, to sync with iPad you have to uncheck "My calendar" in Outlook and then check "iCloud" and use that version of Outlook. But when I use the iCloud version, Outlook will not accept appointments sent to me by clients. It also screws up my communication with clients in other ways. So using the iCloud version of Outlook does not work for me.
    I've discovered a third-party software that seems to solve this issue: Code Two Sync for iPad. You can Google it for reviews, the download link, etc. I downloaded and installed it and it immediately copied (synced?) all the appointments in the Outlook data file version of Outlook ("My calendar") to the iCloud version and synced them with my iPad. There were a bunch of duplicates, but I think there's some way to fix that. However...it also crashed Outlook on my computer (I have an older computer that is having issues). So I needed to uninstall it. I repeat, this is because my computer has been having other issues, I don't think it is the software's fault. I may try it again when I have more time to troubleshoot. Anyway, you might try this software and see if it works for you.

  • Calendars in Outlook 2010 won't sync with my iPhone 3gs

    I've configured firefox to use outlook express, but instead of giving me a pop-up compose window, I am just taken to my inbox.

  • Outlook Express Won't Launch/Freezes Computer?

    I have a 5 yr old G4, running OS 9.1, Outlook Express 5.0.2
    When I try to launch OE, the computer freezes (altho the cursor moves around, it can't do anything). The computer makes a sound of 4 drawn-out clicks (rasps) followed by 2-3 shorter ones. Then a an error message of Type 1 appears. The same thing had been happening with Simple Text for a couple of years (altho that said "Error of Type 113"), but we never really use it so it doesn't matter. I tried to open "Apple System Profiler" and the same thing happened today. Everything else seems to be working fine. Any thoughts, suggestions, help????
    Thanks.

    Hi, Rodney -
    With regard to Outlook Express, try this -
    1) Increase its Preferred memory allocation; adding 20 or 30 thousand, or even more, to its original Preferred amount is not excessive.
    Article #18278 - Assigning More Memory to an Application
    2) Then compact its database files. To do that, hold down the Option key while launching Outlook Express. A screen should appear offering to compact the database files - okay that, and follow the prompts.
    Re Apple System Profiler, try increasing its Preferred memory allocation - doubling the original Preferred amount should suffice.
    Re simpleText, increasing its Preferred memory allocation may also help. Note, though, that SimpleText has a finite limit of how large a file it can handle - 32MB. Any file larger than that, even if in SimpleText format, will not be openable by SimpleText.
    One solution for that which many folk have gone to is to use a replacement program. One such is SimpleEdit.
    The computer makes a sound of 4 drawn-out clicks (rasps) followed by 2-3 shorter ones.
    That can be worrisome. It can indicate the OS is finding it difficult to open a file needed by the program; an overly full drive; damage to the disk directory; or, worst case, physical damage to the drive, such as one or more bad blocks.
    • Difficulty in opening a file can be caused by the file having become damaged. This is not unusual particularly with preference files, and the solution for those is usually to throw away the appropriate preference file, then restart the machine. The next time a call is placed to use that prefs file a new one will be created with default settings.
    The prefs file used by Apple System Profiler can be found 'loose' in the Preferences folder (in System Folder); its name is ASP Preferences.
    Outlook Express uses at least two prefs files. One is named Outlook Express Prefs and is located loose in the Preferences folder. The other is named simply Preferences, and can be found in the account folder for the user account. OE 5 places that here - (hard drive) >> Documents >> Microsoft User Data >> Identities >> Main Identitiy >> Preferences. If you have created additional acccounts, there will be a separate folder for each in the Identities folder, each with its own Preferences file.
    SimpleText has no prefs file.
    • A too-full drive can result in extensive fragmentation of files, giving Finder a lot of grief when it tries to pull one together; it can also lead to erratic Finder behavior, including crashes and other events.
    It is good practice to not let a drive get more than about 80 to 85% full; leaving the remainder unused allows room for files to grow normally, for Virtual Memory to use without incident, and for temporary files (such as are created during a printing operation).
    • Damage to the disk directory can best be checked for by booting the Mac to the most recent OS 9 Install CD available (one valid for that model), and running Disk First Aid from the Utilities folder on the CD. Although DFA is somewhat limited in what it can fix, its diagnostics are excellent.
    If DFA finds somethig it can not fix, it would be time to use a stronger utility, one such as Alsoft's DiskWarrior or Micromat's TechTool Pro.
    • Physical Damage to the hard drive is more difficult to diagnose and fix.
    If it is bad blocks, that can usually be fixed by doing a deep (zero-all-data) re-initialization of the drive, reformatting it as Mac OS Extended in the process. Once the re-initialization is completed, run the Test Disk item in Drive Setup's Function menu - doing so should map out any bad blocks.
    Using Drive Setup
    Note - re-initializing and reformatting a drive will erase it, so be sure your data has been backed up before doing that.
    • If your drive was last formatted using Drive Setup on an OS 9.0.4 or earlier Install (or Restore) CD, that version of Drive Setup had a defect that could leave a drive vulnerable to incurring a wrapper error. The versions of Drive Setup that come on OS 9.1 and later Install CDs do not have that defect.
    The version of Disk First Aid that comes with OS 9.1 and later install CDs can sometimes repair a wrapper error.
    Alsoft's DiskWarrior (v. 2.x or later) can definitely repair a wrapper error. Note that the current versions of DiskWarrior (v. 3.x) boot to OSX - they have no problem repairing OS 9 volumes, but the machine should be OSX-ready before booting to that disk. If the latter is not the case, look for a v. 2.1 or v. 2.1.1 version of DiskWarrior.

    The only other email problem like this that I have seen is that occasionally Windows has "fogotten" my email password.  Try entering your password again.  If this does not fix it, I would suggest deleteing the email account completely, then reboot, then setup the email account again, and make sure you carefully follow all your ISP's recommendations.
    If this still does not fix the problem, contact your ISP tech support.  I had an email problem once that could not be resolved, but when I called tech support they told me about a new email system change that they "had not had time to post yet" in the instructions.
    Hope this helps.

    When you connect your ipod up to the computer. It should show the device, usually with the name of the device, in my case 'jordan's ipod'. This should be on the row which shows 'songs', 'albums' e.t.c on the far right. There when you click on it it should go to a different screen showing a picture of your ipod along with two buttons - Update and Restore. Click update and it should take a 2 mins while your ipod is updated to the latest version of Ios.
    After updating te ipod see if there is a change in results.
    PS: make sure the device is active while syncing so keep tapping the screen.
