MS Office Forum / Outlook / Contacts / March 2008Syncing between 2 copies of Outook 2007
What is the best way to sync Mail, Contacts, Calendars, and Task between a laptop and a desktop? TIA Lot's of possibilities, none good: http://www.slipstick.com/outlook/sync.asp  SignatureRuss Valentine [MVP-Outlook] > What is the best way to sync Mail, Contacts, Calendars, and Task between a > laptop and a desktop? > > TIA Russ Thanks. I explore these "possibilities". As suped up O2007 is and how important syncing would be in this world of Treo's, iPhones, Blackberrys, Laptops, Desktops, Tablets, etc., there would be something simple built into the Suite. It seems such an obvious need. Thanks again. > Lot's of possibilities, none good: > http://www.slipstick.com/outlook/sync.asp [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] >> >> TIA Synching is never the purview of Outlook - it is simply the repository of your information.

I have a great need for it now with the amount I travel and the different machines I use. > But an easy way to synchronize between two separate installations of > Outlook is a reasonable and frequent request that will apparently never be [quoted text clipped - 24 lines] > ||| > ||| TIA > Thanks.

SignatureBrian Tillman [MVP-Outlook] Brian, can you provide the details on how you use your Ipaq to sync info between two computers with Outlook? I'm looking to do just that. > > Thanks.

I'm looking to do just that. When you set up the partnership on the first machine, you tell the wizard that you'll be syncing with more than one PC. You then establish how conflicts are to be handled (i.e., both the PC and the PDA have an item changed - which overrides). The second machine also asks if you sync with more than one PC. It's very straight-forward. SignatureBrian Tillman [MVP-Outlook] > > Brian, can you provide the details on how you use your Ipaq to sync > > info between two computers with Outlook?
