MS Office Forum / Outlook / Contacts / June 2006Not all of my contacts are syncing with my new windows mobile dev
I jsut recieved my new windows mobile phone and everything is working well except that about half of my contacts did not transfer to the device during the sync. I am using XP Home with the standard Outlook 2003. Any help would be great. Thanks Tim It is a problem with your version of Activesync, not outlook. Try posting in microsoft.public.pocketpc.activesync where you will probably find an answer already provided if you search the news group archives.

I will try and download the latest version and give that a try. Thanks for the lead though, Tim This IS IN FACT an Outlook problem, not ActiveSync. This problem began occuring for me when I installed the beta Outlook 2007, then when reverting back to Outlook 2003 (since contacts wouldn't sync), all changes made in 2007 are visible in 2003 but still will not sync (contacts and calendar). Additionally, all new changes in 2003 do not sync. I've run scanpst and also tried modifying the items, but they don't sync. I've tried both activesync 4.1 and 4.2 beta. If the problems have occurred during changes to Outlook, then it is likely a problem tied to Outlook, not ActiveSync. > It is a problem with your version of Activesync, not outlook. > [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > | Thanks > | Tim Does Outlook receive mail? Does the calendar work? Are you able to compose meetings and email? Can you use Contacts? Then Outlook is working. Activesync is NOT a part of Outlook, it is a part of Windows Mobile or PocketPC, depending on your appliance. We can debate all day about this but if you want to solve your problem, post in the group I suggested.

If this is related to the added XML in Office 2007, and that's why they aren't syncing, then that's an Office problem, not ActiveSync. When I called Microsoft for support, they wouldn't accept my ActiveSync product ID, they wanted my Outlook product ID because they said it was an Outlook problem. Who knows, I just need this thing to work! ...about to switch to Apple. > Does Outlook receive mail? Does the calendar work? Are you able to compose > meetings and email? Can you use Contacts?

Make sure that "all Contacts" is checked.
