Two-way or only one-way syncing between G4 and mobile??

I have a Sony Ericcsson k750i mobile. When I first got it, I went through my Address Book (on my powerbook) and sorted it all out and synced with the phone (so all the numbers in the Address Book transfered to the phone). No problem. But now, if I sync, with isync, any numbers / names I have saved in the phonebook of the phone (say, I meet someone new when I'm out and take their number, put it directly in my phone) are erased. The sync, therefore, is ONE WAY, from the powerbook to the phone. Any new entries on the phone are scrapped.
Is there a way to avoid this happening? I looked in isync but I don't find. It's a pretty stupid system if you can't have a two-way street when you're syncing.
Any ideas much appreciated

How? Does isync say something like, "There are contacts / numbers on your phone which are not in your Address Book. Do you want to copy them there?" to which you would reply Yes?
How do you do it?

Please Help!!

    You do realize that the SIM only contains account information for your wireless account.
    Moving the SIM from phone to phone does not cause any of your iTunes content, contacts, email, etc to magically appear on the device.

  • HT1386 How do you sync only one way?

    I want to know how to sync only one way because there are some photos from our previous apple devices and I don't want those photos to appear onto my new one when I sync to put the photos or videos onto the computer. Does anyone know how to do it without messing up the system?

    The photos are now on your computer and you don't want them on your new iPad?
    Then move this photos on your computer to another location (folder) first and then sync.

  • Why is Mail rule syncing only one way?

    Odd. I've got a Mac mini and an iMac, both running 10.8.2, both with iCloud syncing Documents & Data. Mail on the mini has rules -- created on that machine -- for SpamSieve that are not syncing to the iMac; in fact, both rules disappear every few days and I only notice because spam starts piling up.
    On the other hand, changes to Mail rules on the iMac are synced to the mini. The mini has been running Mountain Lion for five months; the rules only started disappearing after I upgraded to ML on the iMac last month.
    Any ideas on why the syncing is only one-way?

    It appears that I can't edit my original question. So here is new information. It is syncing. However, the contacts are syncing with my personal folders. The calendar is syncing from Outlook to Ipad from my personal folders. However, the calendar is syncing to Outlook in a hotmail calendar in the profile that I didn't know existed. How do I get it set right.
    I tried to select the calendar. However only one calendar is available in itunes. It must be the correct calendar as it is syncing fine. So how do I get ipad to sync back to the personal folders calendar instead of the hotmail calendar in my profile?

  • AirDrop transfer between Mac mini (late 2012) and MacBook Pro (late 2008) works only one way.

    AirDrop transfer between Mac mini (late 2012) and MacBook Pro (late 2008) works only one way.  I see both machines on both airdrop windows. Firewalls on both machines are set exactly the same way, and with Network Browser set to allow.  Can send a file from Mac mini to MacBook, but not the other way.  Never get a window asking to accept on the Mac mini.
    Found no useful documentation on AirDrop anywhere in the whole support site.

    Maybe this will work. From an Apple support article.
    You can also use the Share button to send files to your neighbors via AirDrop. In a Finder window, select the item you want to share, and then click the Share button in the toolbar. For more information about the Share button, see this help topic:

  • Can I make OneDrive Pro sync only ONE-WAY?

    Can I make OneDrive Pro sync only ONE-WAY?

    That sucks. DropBox can.
    We want to SYNC literature down to sales reps and not have the sales reps accidentally erase from the Cloud for all. Hence we want a one way SYNC to have them SYNC literature onto their computers for remote
    access to the files.
    Surely SharePoint cannot be that far behind DropBox.
    Is there no way to achieve that?

  • My iPhone calendar and iCloud sync only one way

    My iPhone 4 (iOS 5) calendar and iCloud sync only one way -- from iCloud to the phone. Any ideas why I can't sync from my iPhone calendar to iCloud?

    When you add an event on Iphone, 3rd fields down from bottom, select calender > iCloud. Voila!!
    I am not sure everybody understand really the intention with iCloud. It is one single calender residing on a Apple server somewhere. Selecting iCloud from any device will show this calender. Then how to sync this with other calenders is to me a mystery, or not possible, especially on Lion iCal. Please anyone.

  • How to make a two-way process to one-way process?

    Hi,
    How to make a two-way process to one-way process?
    My requirement is:
    1. I have developed an asynchronous BPEL process, and I am calling a PL/SQL procedure using a DB adapter.
    2. The property "syncMaxWaitTime"=120 seconds in domain.xml.
    3. The partner lnk is one-way operation and it takes more than 120 secons.
    4. So my process throws TimeOut error and the transaction will be rolled back.
    5. If the transaction is rolled back then the instance will not appear in the console.
    6. The wired thing is the call to DB is actually doing the complete task successfully even it takes more than 120 sec.
    7. Is there a way where I can handle this Timeout exception and bring the transaction to complete normailly?
    What I am expecting a solution like [http://download-uk.oracle.com/docs/cd/B31017_01//integrate.1013/b28981/events.htm].
    I tried this example, but in my process I am not getting onResult operation as my process is one-way process? Is there a way where I can make this a two-way operation, after taht I will try to use the Pick activity as shown in the above example.
    --Khaleel

    Hi Khaleel,
    Please refer 122.DBAdapter/advanced/endToEnd/DirectSQLPerformance/README.txt in bpel/samples/tutorials.
    See the "A-Sync to Synchronous " section to convert the asynchronous process initiated by DB adapter to a Synchronous process.
    In your case the problem can be solved by creating a synchronous BPEL process and invoke the asynchronous process initiated by DB adapter in it. You can add the pick activity in the synchronous BPEL process to monitor the timeout.
    Best Regards

  • Iphone 5 - only one way synchronization with iCal

    Hello community,
    Since I have my new iPhone 5 the calendar synchronization is not working properly anymore which means only one way from iCal to iPhone but not the other direction. I could not found a solution in the diverse support communities so maybe you have an idea what the error might be?
    I am synchronizing locally via iTunes from a Mac Book Pro and I am not using iCloud.
    It would be great if you could help.
    Greetings from Zurich,
    Heike Anna

    This is generally an indication that the synchronization framework on your machine is not handling data changes properly, and must be reset.
    To reset it, launch iSync—that's right: iSync, not iTunes—then…
    • open the Preferences… dialog
    • press the Reset Sync History button
    That will remove the records currently stored in your truth database, and force a first-time, slow synchronization event when you next launch one in iTunes.

  • Since me and my mother moved from iChat to iMessage bêta, screen sharing works only one way. I can share my screen with her but not the reverse. When actually what I would like to do is share her screen. Video works fine both ways.

    Screensharing works only one way since we moved from iChat to iMessage bêta. Before that we have never had any problem with screen sharing. We haven't changed anything else, just installed iMessage. What I need to do is share her screen, and the only thing I can do is share my screen...

    HI,
    On the whole I am finding it very stable.  (it presents the same quirks in the same manner each time)
    It has some things that are more Feature requests than "Bugs" per se about the way it works that I would like to change.
    It can also be difficult to tell exactly what is going on whenyou are hearing about it third hand.
    Sounds like you have a plan.

  • Lightning connector  charges only one way on 1 month old IPAD.

    lightning connector  charges only one way on 1month old IPAD . Any idea what could be the issue ....?

    Hey George,
    Have you done a wireless scan of the network to see what the wireless network looks like?
    I would use the program INSSIDER on a wireless laptop and scan the network for all the 2.4ghz networks.
    This will allow you to select a channel that is not being used and should stabilize your wireless.
    If someone is within range of your wireless signal and their signal is strong enough they can disrupt your signal.
    I would try that and let us know how it goes.

  • Are international calling plans only one way?

    I just purchased a Skype plan that lets me call landlines and mobiles in the UK. However, I'm anticpating someone from the UK to call me in the USA. Does my subscription allow for this, or it only one way - I can only call phones in the UK?
    Second question: do I need to purchase a separate subscription apart from the one mentioned above to call phones in the USA and answer calls via Skype that originate in the USA?
    Thanks!

    Hello and welcome to the Skype Community.
    1. Your contact would need to purchase a Subscription to call you.
    2. Yes. You require the Unlimited USA/Canada Subscription 
    3. Your US contacts can call your Skype Number which you have already purchased.

    I recommend that you always run the latest Skype version: Windows & Mac

  • Only one connection established between TT Cache Connect and Oracle10g

    When I use AWT, I found in a TT datastore only one connection established between TT Cache Connect and Oracle10g .
    In our project, the massive real-time data in TT need to be propagated to Oracle10g, but the data are blocked beacuse the slower Oracle10g DB. Can I establish a connection pool that have multiple connections between TT Cache Connect and Oracle10g?
    Thanks for your help.

    Hi,
    I'm afraid that the current implementation of AWT uses just one connection to Oracle and there is no way to change that. This is indeed a significant bottleneck...
    One possible workaround is to split your data across multiple datastores as each datastore will have its own AWT connection to Oracle. Not very nice but about your only option with AWT...
    Sorry, Chris
