MS Office Forum / Outlook / Contacts / September 2005TRANSFER PHONE NUMBERS FROM OUTLOOK TO MOBILE
Can anyone please tell me how I can transfer phone numbers from Microdoft outlook on my PC to my mobile phone? I have a Bluetooth connection. Thanks This question should be addressed to the vendor providing synchronization between your mobile phone and Outlook. It is not an Outlook question.

If you have a phone running Microsoft Smartphone or Pocket PC Phone Edition, then you can use ActiveSync to transfer all your phone numbers (as well as other contact info) from Outlook to your phone. It works with Bluetooth. > Can anyone please tell me how I can transfer phone numbers from Microdoft > outlook on my PC to my mobile phone?

I use this program to sync Outlook to my Smart phone. I have always done this thru a connection. Have you been able to sync the phones via BlueTooth? I have not figured out a way to do this. Both the Laptop and Phone have BlueTooth. Some articles I read suggest this is not possible, and some articles seem to suggest it is possible. Hmmm. Thanks for any insight.

You can sync Outlook to your Smartphone using ActiveSync. I have an Audiovox SMT5600 and this is the way I normally sync, by using Bluetooth. To set up BT Activesync, do this: - first, set BT on your computer to "Discoverable" - then, on the phone: Activesync | (Menu) Setup BT Activesync, and follow instructions from there. You have to do it in this order. If you try to have the computer discover the phone, it won't work. And don't forget to re-set your computer's BT back to "On", when you're done - you don't want to leave it on "Discoverable". > Here's the link to Activesync. > http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/downloads/activesync38.mspx [quoted text clipped - 15 lines] > >> > >> Thanks Thank you very much for letting me know that this can be done. I'm not having any luck so far, but I'm still trying. My Moto MPx 220's Bluetooth only has On/Off/Discoverable, and therefore does not have the option you mention... "...then, on the phone: Activesync | (Menu) Setup BT ...." etc My notebook and phone see each other, but I'm not sure how to set up the "Services" (If that's the correct term). I've seen "Audio Gateway" and "Dial-up", but nothing that would suggest syncing the phone. I am also looking at what's called "Bluetooth Serial Port." I'm not sure what a Serial Port has to do with Bluetooth at this point. Anyway, thanks for letting me know it "should" work. I'll keep plugging along. :>) SignatureDana > Yes, it works.

It's under menu item "(6)ActiveSync", not under "Bluetooth". > Thank you very much for letting me know that this can be done. I'm not > having any luck so far, but I'm still trying. [quoted text clipped - 49 lines] > >> >> > >> >> Thanks Thank you very much!! I don't know how I missed that all this time. On the Mpx 220 phone, I have Start | (5) Active Sync. There is a Menu option with (3) Connect via Bluetooth... It's still not "connecting", but I feel I'm getting close. The problem may be the phone. On the Laptop, in the Bluetooth Neighborhood folder of Windows Xp, I select "Discover Services". The only ones I have are "Dial-up Networking", and "Voice Gateway." I'm now thinking that the phone doesn't have the "service" to do this via Bluetooth. (works fine via cable though). Anyway, thank you very much for your time. :>) SignatureDana > Dana, > [quoted text clipped - 63 lines] >> >> >> >> >> >> Thanks You're almost home now. Before you can "Connect via Bluetooth", you first have to "Setup BT ActiveSync", also under the "ActiveSync" menu (it could be either menu item 3 or 4; strangely enough "Connect" and "Setup" switch positions). > Thank you very much!!
