Ovi Suite 2 - can you sync one way only?

In the old PC Suite, you could set it to automatically back-up all the photos on the phone to the PC. In OS2 this doesn't seem possible, all syncing (especially in this case - the photos) are both ways. Now I do NOT want all the photos on my PC on my phone, so...
...is there a way to set up one-way (Phone > PC) syncing on OS2?

Hi roz_n97. In Nokia Ovi Suite 2.0, photos are synced only one way from device to Nokia Ovi Suite photo library. Additionally, you can transfer your content from Nokia Ovi Suite photo library to device by drag'n'drop. Select photos that you want to get into your device and drag'n'drop those into device icon shown in Nokia Ovi Suite.
What comes to other content types, for example Notes, Contacts and Calendar - we're supporting two-way sync. We've vision, where your content is always available, in device, in Nokia Ovi Suite, in ovi.com, simple and effortless way. When we designed Nokia Ovi Suite, we noticed that current sync settings in Nokia PC Suite are pretty complex for end users and we wanted to give users simple way to keep content in sync.

  • Ovi Suite & Bookmark sync = one way only

    I tried to sync bookmarks between Firefox and C6-00.  Ovi Suite proudly announced syncing to be complete. But I only found it had added the phone's bookmarks to Firefox. No new bookmarks appeared in the phone's web browser.
    How do I get the sync work both ways?
    I tried the PC sync from the phone (what's that supposed to do anyway?) by Bluetooth but that didn't work 'cause Windows (64-bit Win7) didn't  find a driver for the phone.

  • Ovi suite can't sync with Lotus Notes, as PC Suite...

    I have read somewhere that at the end, OVI suite will replace PC Suite.
    I have uinstalleed  PC suite and put OVI Suite and I cannot see a way to sync with my mail application (Lotus Notes 8.x)?
    This was possible with PC Suite. Is this possible with OVI Suite, or do I need to keep both (OVI suite and PC Suite) installed ?
    KIn that Case, PC Suite should continue its life supporting Lotus Notes mail ... ?
    Thank you !

    I would like to ask NOKIA if there will be any advance in support of Lotus Notes synchronization with Nokia OVI ?
    Normally new version means better functionality not less.
    For lot of users is enough to synchronize calendar one a day without Internet connection, locally using USB or Bluetooth.
    Could NOKIA inform their users ( I support about 100) that NOKIA will not support it?
    Should we find out another brand of mobiles to have functionality we need and we were used to have?
    Thank you very much for your info

  • Ovi suite can't sync, n97 crash

    2 hard resets later I've still not been able to connect to Nokia's all singing all dancing Ovi suite with n97.  Well, I can connect it seems but whenever I try to sync anything through it either the Ovi SUite software tells me I have no hone connected & is "unable to read tracks" or the handset restarts itself.
    Come on Nokia, this handset/software is meant to be a competitor to iphone/itunes.  Well it ain't.  Never had problems like this with iphone, ever since day one it has worked as it was meant to.  Why can't nokia software be the same I wonder....
    Please help to resolve this problem.

  • Can you sync one iPhone to two computers?

    I usually sync my iPhone to an iMac where I download new apps, keep my music, etc. But when I'm not at home I have a MacBook and I want to use its iTunes (same account) to download apps instead of using iPhone battery to do that. Can I do it without messing up?
    I also have an iCloud account, if that helps.
    Another question, probably related:
    What's the purpose of WiFi sync if you have to use the cable? Does a WiFi sync update the computer or the iCloud?
    thanks

    I sync each of my iOS devices to two different Macs. I haven't had any problems syncing apps and backups of each device to both Macs. Both copies of iTunes are logged in under the same iCloud account, so there's no conflict with the list of authorized apps. I would not attempt this if each iTunes was logged into a different account.
    If you want to sync anything else, you could get into trouble real fast. You need to be very aware of the different sync categories across the top in iTunes. For example, you can sync photos to one computer and podcasts to another, as long as you never turn on the same category on both Macs because that will cause each computer to overwrite the other's data. But since you said you don't want to sync music or photos, that shouldn't be a problem for you.
    WiFi sync exists so that you don't have to grab a cable just to do a sync. It's convenient, but it's a lot slower than cable sync.

    It's probably more accurate to say that iOS devices are designed to sync with only one account.

  • Can you sync two 4S iPhones to one PC and iTunes account?

    Can you sync two 4S iPhones to one PC and iTunes account?

    No you don't. You log into iTunes with your Apple ID but you can use one Apple ID for iTunes and a different Apple ID for iCloud. On your device go:
    Settings > iCloud > Delete Account and sign in with a new Apple ID
    This will only change the Apple ID for iCloud and both devices will continue to download apps and backup to the shared iTunes account.

  • Can you sync thunderbird email between several computers so if you delete an email on one computer in thunderbird it also deletes it out of the other computers.

    Can you sync thunderbird email between several computers so if you delete an email on one computer in thunderbird it also deletes it out of the other computers it syncs with? I have three computers I use daily in different location and have thunderbird on each computer. I find it time consuming to have to repeatedly delete the same emails from each location. I am thinking that by leaving the emails on the server and not downloading them in each computer would solve this. Is my assumption here correct? If not? How would you set up Tbird to sync?

    If you set up your email account(s) as IMAP instead of POP3, then each computer / smart phone can view the mail, but if any of them delete a message (or move it to another folder on the server), the same action will be seen on the other computers.

  • Can you sync from iPhone to PC?

    Can you sync from iPhone 3GS to PC, instead of the other way 'round?

    The syncing of iTunes content is a one way transfer process only - from iTunes on your computer, or from your iPhone to your iTunes library on your computer the first time you sync your iPhone with iTunes after purchasing/downloading music, video, or 3rd party apps with your iPhone.
    iTunes content is not kept synchronized but is part of the iTunes sync/transfer process. Photos transferred from your compute to your iPhone via the iTunes sync/transfer process are not kept synchronized either. The transfer of photos is a one way transfer process only - from your computer to your iPhone.
    The only bi-directional or true sync process is for contacts, calendar events, and Safari bookmarks with the supported applications on your computer. The same for notes if you are using a supported application on your computer for syncing notes.
    In regards to iTunes content, an iPhone can be synced with an iTunes library on a single computer only, and photos can be transferred from a single computer only. When transferring iTunes content and photos from another computer, all iTunes content and photos transferred from a different computer will be erased from the iPhone first. You can sync contacts, calendar events, and Safari bookmarks with the supported applications on multiple computers.
    You need to transfer your iTunes library from your old computer to your new computer along with all other important data that you will need or want to access on your new computer such as photos, documents, etc. All iTunes content is stored in an iTunes named folder. With iTunes quit on your new computer, place the copy of the iTunes named folder from your old computer in the appropriate location for access by iTunes on your new computer. You will also need to authorize your new computer with your iTunes account with iTunes if you haven't already done so.
    iTunes includes an option to transfer iTunes content that was purchased/downloaded from the iTunes store from an iPod or iPhone, but this is for iTunes content that was purchased/downloaded from the iTunes store only. First you need to authorize your computer with your iTunes account with iTunes. With your iPhone connected to iTunes and without syncing, at the iTunes menu bar go to File and select Transfer Purchases From - the name of your iPhone.
    The iPhone is not designed or intended to be used as a backup storage device or as a storage device to transfer data from one computer to another.

  • Can you sync two different apple calendars? My husband and I want to better manage our family.

    My husband and I wish to sync our apple calendars.  Is it possible to do so? We have 2 separate apple Id's.  Tried google but seems to sync from google to Iphone calendar but not the other way.  I much prefer apples calendar because of the functions available but my husband and I need to see one another's schedules.  Any help out there ? Can you sync two different users calendars via the calendar that comes with Apple products?

    You each need an iCloud account and to sync your iCal calendars with iCloud. Then you can each share a calendar or calendars privately, so only available to the other, who would be able to edit it, or not, depending on your settings. Please see this page:

  • Can you sync attachments from an iPhone to a Windows PC with Outlook 2007?

    Can you sync attachments from an iPhone to a Windows PC with Outlook 2007? I would like to receive email on the iphone with attachments and then sync the attachments to a Windows XP PC with Outlook 2007 without Outlook 2007 having to connect to the mail server itself and having to separely download the attachment. Is this possible?
    I have only tried one pdf file which downloaded wonderfully to the iPhone. I synced to the PC without the PC being connected to the email account. This also worked except that when I tried to open the attachment on the PC I got a message that the mail wasn't fully downloaded. When I went on=line on the PC, it downloaded the attachment. I would love to have this option because I can't access some email accounts from my corporate computer.

    No it is not. The only information synced regarding email accounts is the email account information only and this is in one direction only - from your computer to the iPhone via iTunes.

  • Can you Sync iPhone 5 with Outlook 2013

    Can you sync iPhone 5 with Outlook 2013? Everything mail, contacts and calender.

    Hey Mark
    I'm Michael and I work for connex.io.
    We were also constantly having problems with our address books, so we decided to build our own solution. connex.io is a service that syncs two-ways between all of your devices and services. It also de-duplicates, cleans completes and automatically updates your address books on all of those devices. So whenever you make a change on any of them, it automatically gets changed everywhere. So you only have to connect your address books once, and you will have your contacts always with you. No need to connect your device to your computer or sync manually.
    If you want to check it out: www.connex.io or you can send me an e-mail if you would like some more info: [email protected]
    I hope this helps you out.
