Sync-ing groups with 9500 & Outlook

Hi, I use groups often. But sync-ing with Outlook seems to delete them, even if the group is present in Outlook too. Any sugestions?

This is something that Nokia needs to fix ASAP!!!
A few of us use Microsoft Outlook to organize our Contacts. Once you get more than a few numbers organizing them into categories: business, family, etc. makes makes it much easier to find the number you want.
It is great that Nokia can sync. with Outlook but not being able to sync with all of Outlooks groups makes the feature almost worthless.
If Nokia wants to sell a business smartphone then it MUST sync with business software, completely.

    Nokia 6131, Windows XP SP2 all updates, PC Suite 6.82.22.0, Bluetooth
    I need help on syncing groups with PC Suite. When browsing contacts with Phone Browser, I can edit/view contacts, but no info about the groups I've defined on my phone.
    I've also tried syncing contacts with Lotus Notes but no groups were exported.
    This is a very important feature for my job.
    Thanks ,

    if you are using the ovi.com, i would suggest you get your contacts squared away and sync them elsewhere, that is going to be deleted soon, if not already.
    i had issues syncing my data with nokia services for the longest time. it was good, then they "fixed" the nokia suite and it wasnt....then there was ovi suite and that botched them all too.
    i used to sync directly to my outlook with the 9500, and then through my other devices until ovi suite when i grew tired of the challenges with the contacts.
    eventually, i ended up signing up with office365 to get an exchange account for $5/mo.
    i think that the devs for the software products only use thier nokia exchange accounts when testing, which goes around the issues that we have had.
    i would create either a google account and sync there, or if you want to also sync directly to an outlook, create a live/hotmail/outlook.com email address and then download the hotmail connector application for your pc, and then it will sync your wireless devices and outlook like a free exchange server and sync contacts/calendar/email.
    if you go that route, you can get the hotmail connector here: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/outlook/microsoft-office-outlook-hotmail-connector-overview-HA0102...

  • I am having problems syncing my ipad2 with my outlook 2010. Any suggestions

    I am having problems syncing my ipad2 with my outlook 2010. I went to ATT& T store and they recommended airplane mode when syncing.  It did not sync Outlook to my ipad 2. Any suggestions?

    You haven't purchased apps with multiple Apple ID's have you? If you have, you can only sync with one Apple ID in the iTunes library at a time. Whichever ID you are signed into on the computer and the iPad would determine which apps would sync.
    Have all of your apps been transferred into iTunes for your iPad?

  • I am syncing my iPhone with microsoft outlook.

    I am syncing my iPhone with microsoft outlook 2003.  Prior to my last sync my wife sync'd her iPad.  When I sync'd my iPhone my notes where removed
    and my wifes notes were copied.  Where can I find a copy of the notes that were removed??  I have a PC.
    Thank-you,

    It's probably the fact that you have iTunes set to sync calendars as well as having iCloud sync them.  Turn off calendar syncing in iTunes.

  • Hi, From where can I download a copy of iTunes 10.7, so I can again sync my iPhone with Ms.Outlook?

    Hi,
    I did an "upgrade" to the obviously beta version of iTunes 11, which when attempting to sync an iPhone with Ms.Outlook, displays the message, "iTunes could not sync calendars ..."
    Only iTunes changed - nothing else, so it seems pretty obvious that the defect is in iTunes 11.
    I hope that returning to a fully functional version of iTunes (that is, 10.7) will restore sync capability.
    Does anyone know of a cache location or someone who could e-mail me a copy? 
    Thanks.

    I had the exact same thing.  Apple level 2 senior tech advisors and senior engineers apparently clueless about this. I spent over 7 hours last week with Apple tech support and they still have not gotten back to me with any info.  I generated and sent them all my logs, etc.  What a waste --  they should know about this. This is what I did, and it works:
    It works also in Windows XP (maybe also Vista and 7)
        1.Click on Start button.
        2.Type Cmd in the Start Search box.
        3. right-click cmd.exe, click Run as administrator, and then press Continue.
        4. Type netsh winsock reset and then press the Enter.
        5. Restart the computer.
    I can't take credit for the fix --- I found it by doing a Yahoo search and found this link

    when syncing my iphone with my Outlook calendar, a few days appointments didn't show in my iphone calendar, but other days did.  The appointments show in my outlook calendar.  I have done this many times, and this is the first time I have had this kind of trouble.  Any idea what has caused these appointments to not show?

    Why start a new and very similar thread to your other one which you have not responded to (have you read the replies?)
    I suggest that no response is made to this duplicate thread. 

  • Can no one help? Sync'ing iPhone with a new computer after crash on old PC

    Hi all,
    I'm hoping any lack of response was because you were taking time off at Christmas and not that I defeated the best of the bests.
    Hopefully your reply is simply a case of saying 'YES!' to the steps below.
    Here's a sort of potted timeline history as to what has occurred:
    My iPhone 3GS was backed up via sync to 2 different location PCs.
    The main location was here at 'home' where I managed my Music Library and Apps on a Vista based laptop.
    My 'Work' PC simply dealt with sync of Contacts with a folder in Outlook.
    The home PC was backed up fully typically once a fortnight.
    A few weeks ago, my home PC had a catastrophic failure and it is clear I can't recover from the HDD.
    I restored the key folders from the backup to a 'from backup' folder on the new PC and not the same folder structure as it has Windows 7.
    From this folder I moved the entire contents of my music folder into Windows 7's music folder (and there is a sub-folder in there called 'itunes').
    So, after reading a couple of threads, bizarrely enough, this one on iPad seems the nearest scenario to mine http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=11527315
    user, 'virtualgeo' summarises neatly the steps of sync'ing so I guess this would figure the same here but with an iPhone?
    I'veinstalled the latest iTunes on my new PC and I'm ecstatic to see all my music and apps appear on running up iTunes for the first time.
    I've gone to Edit>Preferences>Devices and checked the box next to "Prevent your iPod from automatically syncing" (However I see no previous backups being shown in this window. Is it worth recovering this from my backup?)
    I've also authorised the new computer successfully.
    So I was going to continue following virtualgeo's steps in the thread but not sync'ing contacts if that looks sensible?
    Anything else I should do before connecting my iPhone to iTunes?
    And out of interest, should I be backing up my iTunes separately to my PC backup?
    Many thanks in advance!

    Well I forget the exact keys, but believe pressing and holding down CTRL before clicking Restore will allow you to browse and find the backup file (may be wrong).
    In the end, as far as the iPhone thinks, it is a new computer so it will erase and resync stuff and as long as you loaded everything back into iTunes all should sync back. Main issue is other stuff like the data within the apps, notes, etc that are part of the backup which is why you would want to try to restore from the backup. If you don't mind losing data in apps (eg: do you care you have to relog into some apps and start over, don't care about game scores, etc) then you don't have to worry about the backup. If you have important data in some of those apps then you will need to restore from the backup.

    Hi all,

  • 2-way syncing of calendars with iCal/Outlook users

    Has anyone found an inexpensive hosted calendar solution that allows iCal and Outlook users to share calendars? more specifically a solution where the shared calendar can be edited by either party?

    Success! I think I have gotten to the bottom of this now. With the latest version of Jeffrey Friedl's Flickr plugin you can indeed populate both the sets and groups.
    The link provided by Victoria to Jeffrey's blog allows you only to populate the "photostream" collection in the publish services of Lightroom.
    However further down in the settings of the jf Flickr plugin there is a part entitled:
    "Sync set/group membership for photos already part of this publish service".
    It gives a warning about this being beta and undocumented, so to backup catalog before trying.
    I did this and synced nearly 7000 photos in Flickr in a lot of sets that it automatically added and located the vast majority of them in my Lightroom library, which contains about 45,000 images. It all took maybe half an hour to run, so it was slow (even with a fast internet connection) but worked! I am a happy camper!
    A bonus that I was not looking for but discovered is that this plugin will also sync with Flickr groups.
    The version I used is http://regex.info/LightroomPlugins2/releases/flickr-20130324.298.zip
    Thanks Victoria and Paige for all of your help

  • Sync iPod contacts with iTunes & Outlook

    I have a new iPod that I have added over 200 contacts on. Now I have a new PC and need to sync contacts to Outlook through iTunes.
    My contacts are not saved anywhere else at this point other than my iPod.

    My iTunes is configured to sync all contacts with Google Contacts, and doesn't allow me to select the option of syncing specific groups. The four contacts from my Google Contacs list were added to my iPod, but nothing from my iPod was sent to Google Contacts.

  • Problems Syncing iPhone 4S with MS Outlook 2010 after years of no problems

    For several years, I have sync'ed my iPhone 4S regularly and flawlessly using itunes with my Windows 7 desktop that was running Outlook 2010.
    Last week, disaster struck and my hard drive failed and had to be replaced. Luckily, my backup drive had everything on it, so I replaced the failed drive, then copied my outlook.pst file back on the new drive, as well as all my iTunes songs. Outlook and Itunes were installed for a fresh start.
    Unfortunately, I tried to sync my iPhone with the "new" computer today, and the process seems to get stuck at the "Syncing contacts (Step 3 of 7)" during the syncing procedure. It has been at that phase in the process for over 3 hours? Will I hurt the files if I cancel the process?
    I there anyway to fix this? Syncing the iphone with outlook is an essential feature.
    Are there settings to start with a computer with a new hard disk, but all the old data?
    Please help!

    I have 3 iPhone 4's and I'm having this problem on all 3 of them.  We upgraded to iTunes 11.4.0.18 and we have Outlook 2010 and it just gets stuck on (Step 3 of 7) Syncing Contacts.  We left it running overnight and it was still stuck.  When this happens the progress bar keeps moving making you think it is working, but it is stuck.
    I wish someone from Apple would help.  We just ordered iPhone 6 phones and we need to backup so we can restore our old info.

  • Syncing an iPhone with PC Outlook

    I have a BlackBerry and am thinking of getting an iPhone when my contract is up. Does iCloud really work well as a means to sync the iPhone with Outlook email, contacts and calendar? BBerry works so well I am very conflicted. I also have a PlayBook. Will iCloud sync my stuff with it, too?

    Well I am not sure why this is happening because if you have checked sync all calendars, any appointment on any calendar should be in outlook.   Check to see that you have indeed checked "sync all calendars" and not just sync a work calendar or a birthday calendar or something like that.
    I am a Mac person now and I cannot remember how you check your sync settings on a PC to make sure you have elected that the syncing of calendar goes both ways from and to iPhone and Outlook.  Perhaps another PC person on the forum can advise us how to do this on a PC.  If I have a little time  later I will see if we have had this help and if not, I will research the Apple KB for you.  I am sorry that I have no time to do that right now.
