PocketPC sync through Outlook Connector - what's best???

I've recently purchased a PocketPC to replace my failed Palm. I was already using the Outlook Connector without issue. When I installed the ActiveSync it automatically inserted whatever conduits that were needed to sync to Outlook while in turn seems sync to Oracle automagically through the Outlook Connector. From what I can tell it seems to do a relatively good job out of the box this way (ie: syncing the PocketPC to Outlook, which is forwarding it to Oracle via the Connector for Outlook).
However clearly there is a PocketPC only synchronizer and I do actually see some strange anomilies when syncing (sometimes I get issues with dups, particularly on reoccuring appointments). Also its not clear where my notes are going, though they seem to work and appear to be going into some Oracle store.
The client code is 10.10, but the server is 9i (seems to work fine together though).
So, what is the best bet here? Should I not be syncing through Outlook? If it's fine to sync through Outlook, why does Oracle even supply a PocketPC specific sync? PocketPC would require Outlook by default anyway.
Inquiring minds would like to know. Thanks in advance.

Hello,
We provide Oracle synchronization conduits for users that are either not using Outlook (e.g. they use the native calendar desktop clients), or do not use the synchronization tools that come with their device. In some cases, the Oracle synchronization tools do a better job of synchronizing calendar information.
As much as possible, Oracle tries to make it flexible for our customers to use the clients and tools they want to use. So if you are an Outlook user, and you use OCFO, then you can continue to use your ActiveSync conduit to do the synchronization.
Since the OCFO architecture is different than the traditional Outlook one, there are sometimes problems with third-party synchronizations. For instance, we know of a problem when modifying recurring meetings in ActiveSync (it can cause the duplicates that you report) that we hope to address in a future release.
If you're having a problem and/or are not sure about your current Outlook-synchronization tool, talk to an Oracle Support representative.
Hope that helps,
--Marc

Howto troubleshoot outlook connector. users can't open their calendar

Hello
some companies that are our client cannot open their agenda when using outlook connector. if they use communications express (uwc) they can view it but not when accessing through the connector.
what could be the cause of this. I am really clueless. i have asked the sjoc.log to see if can see anything.
thank you.

the actual problem is that an user can create events using outlook but his colleagues can't consult these events. it is a shared calendar and when using communications express/uwc they can access this data.
here is a excerpt of the sjoc.log that has errors

What is the best way for my wife to sync her Outlook contacts to her new iPad Air?

What is the best way for my wife to sync her Outlook contacts to her new iPad Air? I don't know very much about Microsoft (almost nothing). Does she need to plug into one of the USB ports on her Microsoft computer (about 5 years old)? I also have an iMac (that I use for syncing but she needs her contacts from Outlook. She doesn't really want all of them...there are 1,000's of teachers that work in her district and she does no tent to add 1,000's of contacts.

If she only has a few she can e-mail those contacts to herself, open that mail on her iPad and save them from there.

Adb sync not working for commsync and outlook connector after Patch 122793-

Hello,
I have opened the case 71038740 for this problem.
We have upgraded communication express:
v6.3-4.01 (Patch 122793-17,) ==> v6.3-11.01 (Patch 122793-24)
Communication Express seems to work fine but the adb
synchronisation for outlook connector and commsync does not work anymore.
The errors that we have are:

It looks like it is trying to opening
domain/unige.ch/personalstore.properties instead of
domain/personalstore.properties.
From what I see, we did not have this error in the previous version.
What is weird, that adb seems to work fine in uwc web interface.
I add the http dialog for the ones who may help me to debug:

Cannot view SharePoint Online documents through CRM Online Outlook Connector - iframe error

We are integrating CRM 2013 Online with SharePoint 2013 Online. We have installed the CRM List Component solution. We have also modified the SharePoint master page to permit display of SharePoint content in iframes. We can view SharePoint documents within
CRM using Internet Explorer after setting the Documents link for an opportunity to point to a document set in SharePoint. However we cannot view documents through the CRM Outlook Connector. We receive the error that "This content cannot be displayed in
a frame".
We have tried adding *.sharepoint.com, *.dynamics.com, and *.microsoftonline.com to IE's Trusted Zone with no effect.
The application launched by the Outlook Connector is called Microsoft.Crm.Application.Outlook.WebFormsHost and it's my understanding that it uses the IE engine to render online content.
Is there anyway to view SharePoint content embdedded in CRM via an iframe with the Outlook Connector?

I have the same problem here.
The integration works fine outside of Outlook, but if, for example, an account is opened within CRM for Outlook the error occurs.
- No masterpage modification
- Some security setting in IE 11 (perhaps IE 11 is the problem)
- Installed the solution in the used site collection
- Configured CRM settings

Outlook Connector 7.3 Outlook fails to sync with folders

Hi all,
I know this is a somewhat older product - we are running Sun Java System Communications Express. We are using Outlook 2003 as the e-mail client with Outlook connector 7.3 installed. For the vast majority of staff the connector is working fine, however, with have a few users whose subfolders will not sync up with the server. I have tried the following solution:
Right Click “Folders – User Name” and select “Properties for Folders - Username”
Click the “Advanced” button (bottom right)
Select “Advanced” Tab
Click “Synchronize All” button
Tick the box for “Empty all the Mail, Calendar, Task and contact items”
Click “Yes” button
Click Ok, OK and Ok to return to Outlook
Close Outlook
Open Outlook and select a sub folder - it should then synchronise with the server.
This has not worked in fact the user who tested this for me reported back saying that even more folders where not syncing that previously were.
Does anyone know of any work arounds / Solutions to this issue? I do not wish to spend too much time on the problem as we are currently looking to migrate to a new mail system and the Outlook connector is only a stop gap solution.
Any help would be appreciated.
Regards
Phil

FYI;
It appears that a combination of anonymous binding and the search filter caused this issue

I want to run Quicken through Windows on my macbook pro, whats the best way to do this?

I want to run Quicken 2012 through Windows on my macbook pro, whats the best way to do this?
I have been looking at Parallels or VMware in order to use Windows but then I will also need to get a Windows license. Just looking for the most inexpensive way possible as this will probably be the only Windows app I run.
Also looking at this CrossOver software which says you dont need Windows license. Anyone used this before? had success?

CrossOver's website has a list of software it has certified as working or working with known issues - Quicken 2012 has a bronze rating meaning it runs but with enough issues that it isn't recommended. In other words, "Run away!"
Get a copy of Windows 7 OEM from Amazon or New Egg and give it a try with VirtualBox (an open source virtualization program). If VirtualBox doesn't cut it you can always buy VMWare or Parallels.

What is best password AP to sync with Imac (Snow Leopard)?

What is best password AP to sync with Imac (Snow Leopard)?

Here are a few analog to digital devices and approaches I have had success with:
1. Sony DA-2
2. Most Name brand Firerwire or i.Link Minidv Camcorders with Digital Pass thru feature will suffice since more often than not this feature is also included ... But read the owner's manual or check online to make certain it's included.
3. Canopus products work perfectly nearly 100% of the time and will keep the video and audio in synch much better than other devices. It can take the form of a pci card (if your mac is so equipped) and if not, then a canopus media converter box will also work (as already mentioned above):

4. Another approach I use to simply "dump" mini dv or VHS tapes to Dvd-R is a DVD Player/Recorder like the one shown below with Digital inputs. In this case (i.Link / FW)):

What is best way to sync my iphone?

I note that there are two methods of syncing my iphone and to preserve its data. What are the advantages of syncing through iCloud (wireless sync) as opposed to using usb connection to iTunes? Can I do both, or will that create a problem? If I sync with iTunes, can I control exactly what goes into the iphone?

iTunes: Syncing media content to iOS devices and iPod - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1351 - detailed example: https://discussions.apple.com/message/18860187
iOS: Syncing with iTunes - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1386 - You can sync everything or selected playlists. "WIth iTunes 10, when automatically syncing, you can also manually drag items to the iDevice. These will show up in Manually Added Songs at the bottom of the Music tab after Playlists, Artists Genre, Albums." - https://discussions.apple.com/message/18919754
I don't know all the details but, for example, unless you have iTunes Match then music you rip from CD will not be in the Cloud.
I suspect transfer via USB would be faster than wireless.
While iCloud is a convenience I would not trust it as a master repository for files. For that you definitely want everything on your computer too.

Options for using iPhone 3G and Hotmail Outlook Connector to sync contacts?

I reviewed some posts on this topic and searched other forums, but still have yet to see a real solution to this problem.
I am using Win XP and Outlook 2003 with the Hotmail Outlook Connector to manage my Hotmail account. My default calendar and contacts DB in Outlook is located in the same mailstore as the Hotmail data. This is not POP or IMAP as unfortunately Hotmail requires it's own protocol (Outlook Connector) to manage the email account.
Also Hotmail will NOT allow any creation of a .pst or data file to store data that may be synced with a 3rd party device.
Can someone please assist me with finding a solution so that I can continue to use my Hotmail account, with Outlook 2003 and simply synch my default calenday and contacts data with my iPhone.
Note: I had a client with a similar issue using an HTTP/RPC Exchange mailbox and also an IMAP GMail connection in the same Outlook client. We simply made the Exchange account default and stored all contacts/calendar data there. The iphone synchs this data perfectly and the client and iPhone utilize both mailboxes perfectly.
Outlook Express is not an options for me. Thanks for helping.

Nothing? Anyone?
