MS Office Forum / Outlook / Contacts / November 2005Outlook Pocket Contact Sync
Anyone here get it to install on O2k3? I tried but it says I don't outlook2000 installed - that I have to install it first. Is there a registry trick or something to make this program think I have O2k and if I do it did you get it to work with o2k3? Thanks Start at the beginning. You've told us nothing. What are you doing? What dose it have to do with Pocket Contact Sync? What does it have to do with Contacts?  SignatureRuss Valentine [MVP-Outlook] > Anyone here get it to install on O2k3?

My goal is to be able to view my basic contact info via OWA or my WM5 device. In order for ActiveSync to sync my bcm contact info I will need the contact info from Business Contact Manager (minus the activities) synced to my regular outlook contacts then it will be viewable with OWA and WM5. So I need a utility to sync the BCM info with my regular outlook contacts. I was going to use Outlook Pocket Contact Sync to get that the info I need in a folder I can use. I have not actually used this program since I have Outlook2003 but it might do what I need it to as long as it does not duplicate contacts and can sync at least once a day. > Start at the beginning.

Start at the beginning. You've told us nothing. What are you doing? I'm sitting at my computer trying to install Outlook Pocket Sync on my computer. I am running Windows XP SP2 with all the patches. I am running Outlook2003 Pro with all the patches/sp. What dose it have to do with Pocket Contact Sync? What does WHAT have to do with PCS? What does it have to do with Contacts? The purpose of PCS is to sync contacts that is explained in my second post. It was stated in the post above by Sue that some have gotten it to work with Outlook2003. Since I cannot get it to install as I do not have Outlook2000, I was wondering if anyone here has the trick to installing it without Outlook 2000. My question as posed in my original post - Has anyone gotten it to install with Outlook 2003 and if so - what is necessary to get it to install? Is that clear? > You have managed to obscure any semblance to a clear question.

You never clarified what you were trying to install. Are you asking about Pocket Contact Synchronizer version 1.2? The product that says specifically in its documentation that it is designed only for Outlook 2000 and 2002? Any reason you don't use the one designed for Outlook 2003 with BCM?

I am running BCM v2 (the patched version for Outlook2003). I cannnot find any utilites in it to sync my BCM contacts with my regular outlook contacts. Since I cannot do this, it means I cannot view any of the contacts I've created in BCM in OWA on my exchange server (exchange 2k3). WM5 only syncs the contacts with the regular outlook contacts folder. So BCM while giving me timestamps for my outlook notes and a few other features limits my access to data on the road. If their was a sync utility that ran on a regular basis that synced that data between my BCM contacts and my regular contacts folder on a regular basis, I could use BCM in my environment. The version of PCS I have found will not run on Outlook2003. Do you have a link for Outlook Pocket Contact Sync that works with Outlook2003? If you know of a way to make 1.2 for outlook 2000 work with 2003 that would be helpful. Sue the MVP who responded to my request for a Utility to Sync Contacts between two sources stated she believed it could be done. > http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=F3BC2918-C310-4599-81D1 -558CF385ED88&displaylang=en > [quoted text clipped - 52 lines] >>>>>>>> >>>>>>>> Thanks Both BCM and OWA are covered in other groups.

I know I looked for Business to find it with no luck. I wonder how many people would find terminal services if the group was called TS. Can you tell me what group to look under for synchonization? That is all my posts have been looking for is a tool/utility to sync contacts between to data locations. > Both BCM and OWA are covered in other groups. So is synchronization.

The only groups I know that deal with synchronization deal with mobile OS specific issues like ActivSync or Palm's HotSync. I only know they aren't dealt with here, so I'm afraid you'll get little traffic here as well. Wouldn't the Exchange groups be more likely to deal with this? Your setup is one I've never seen in these groups.

Open the Registry - Click Start -> Run and type: regedit 2.. Browse to the following location. You wouldn't have the keys after "Office", therefore you will need to add them. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\10.0\Common\InstallRoot And add a String Value under this Key called "Path" with its Value data reading as "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office10\" If you are not comfortable doing the registry editing yourself, download the registry file and execute it. This will add the required entries. 3.. Run the Add-in Setup again and you should be able to install Outlook PCS on your computer without any problems. > Anyone here get it to install on O2k3?
