In my line of work my office attaches pdf and doc to the outlook calendar and it is on a exchange server. i can see the doc but i am unable to open the doc in the calendar. i notice iphones have the same problem too since my job uses android and iphones. is it possible to open attachments in androids calendar or do i need to root my phone for this to work?

Has anyone had any issues syncing 2010 microsoft outlook calendars on their droid incredible? When I first set it up it was super easy and had no issues (i was on 2007). Then my work computer got upgraded to 2010 and it worked for a bit and now the calendar won't sync correctly. Contacts and emails have no issues. I get an error message on my calendar though and only certain appointments sync. I tried to delete the account and reset it but each time I did that it double up appointments in my work computer outlook and still didn't get all appointments on my phone. Now I am afraid to try that again since it is a pain to delete all the duplicates.

View 16 Replies View RelatedI've just upgraded to an Xperia X10 and it looks like people using Outlook contacts and calendar are not supported.
I don't want my contacts and calendar on the Google web server,
Am I really that unusual in not wanting my contact list and calendar contents spinning around the world.?
From what I've read so far there are third party applications that try to fill need, some focused on contatcs and some on the calendar.
Also, that these application add an additional, unexpected cost.
What I want is for the USB connection to provide the ability to sync with Microsoft Outlook on my local PC.
If thats not possible, it would be good to know quickly so I can take the phone back and swap it for one that will let me use Outlook.
I have a HTC Thunderbolt and use all the Google tools for my calendar, email and contacts. At work I have Outlook 2007. I would REALLY like to have my Outlook calendar (at minimum) pushed/synchronized to my phone. Is there an app or a way to configure this to work? Right now I am using the Outlook Web Mobile app for my email and I can view my calendar there but I would like schedule/calendar all in one place.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI see that there are quite a few posts asking about whether there's an application that will sync your Outlook Notes to your handhelpd (Droid), but it doesn't appear to be any recent posts on it.
Does anyone know if any apps out there will do this? I've read how to export the Notes as a csv file, and impor them, but the syncing is what I'm really after.
HTC sync programme only recognize and synchronize the PEOPLE who are entered under " PHONE " section while opening contact card.
I have hundreds of contacts appearing under " Google account section "
I can not remove them to the PHONE section therefore I can not synchronize to microsoft outlook.
I have tried to back up as VCF file by using HTC menu - Home-- People -- Import/Export to SD card ; it does 2 back-up file
1- for People section ( 33 people )
2- for google account section ( 348 people )
I tried to import this VCF file to the microsoft outlook but google account Vcf can not accepted by the programme only gives 1 person address card, in fact while backing up I have seen 348 people have been backed up. how to back up my people all of them to the microsoft outlook safely.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI would like to get my calendar sync'd with my phone and am struggling.
I used the Kies sync, which then resulted in an outlook prompt to allow access. I clicked yes, and the sync in Kies seemed to have completed.
I then looked on the phone, and can't see calendar anywhere. I looked in apps, nothing. I looked in widgets and there was a full page calendar view widget. Added to a new home page and it just said "loading" forever.
I then installed "google calendar" which when I opens just immediately closes.
So I am not sure how to get a calendar on my Samsung G2, let alone to sync it to outlook.
I have a mac with Outlook for MAC 2011 on it. I have had a GS3 for almost a year (made the switch from BB). Since I made the switch I have not been able to get my calendar (or anything for that matter) to sync. Google Sync is no longer an option. I am not too worried about contacts, as they have all been uploaded etc... how I can sync my calendar with google calendar, or with my phone calendar?

Question:
Does Microsoft Outlook need to be installed on a computer before that computer will recognize the phone so the SD can be mounted for file transfers back and forth?
I have tried to mount the SD on my wifes' HERO with no luck while its attached to her lappy. She does not have Outlook installed on that lappy. I do however on my pc and my pc recognizes the phone, allows me to Mount and Un-Mount the SD and transfer files.
Can the Epic be sync'd with Microsoft Outlook for the Calendar and contact list?
View 15 Replies View RelatedI'm a proud new owner of the HTC Hero, I have a very specific interest in getting my email 'just so' on my Hero, and I made it work great. I think others may be in this situation so I made some detailed instructions that I thought I'd share in case it helps some people.
First off this is for those who (but not limited to):
1) Use Microsoft Outlook POP3 Mail
2) Want to keep that as your main mail source, but want to receive duplicates on the phone.
3) Want to be able to reply to a message from your phone and have it appear as if you wrote it from your computer.
4) Receive it as fast as possible
5) Conserve battery life
6) Want to use the HTC Mail widget to preview your messages and have a mail envelope icon in your notification bar.
7) Filter spam and other unnecessary messages from getting to your phone
The best way to set up email on an android phone:
Benefits:
- Email pushed to you, so its recieved quicker and preserves phone battery life. I went from about 8 hour battery life to about 27 hours.
- Combines addresses into one neat mail location
- Lets you reply as if you're replying from any of those addresses
- Filters spam and unwanted messages from getting to your phone
- Many mail options in android by setting it up this way. Ability to flag messages, sort messages, etc.
- Lets you view and quickly flip through or delete messages in a widget.
- Eliminates the "on behalf of" statement when sending through gmail.
How to set up:
- get gmail account
- set up gmail account to receive your mail account(s)... as many accounts as you may have.
- set up filters to filter spam, and any regular messages you dont want forwarded to your phone
- set up outgoing smtp servers instead of using gmail's. I use authsmtp.com. they are good and cheap. This will let you send your messages as if they were from your Outlook account and not send it saying from <your gmail address> on behalf of <your address>
- If you have troubles sending, you might want to set your smtp server's option to send as SSL, and do the same in Gmail...then they should talk nicely.
You probably have a bunch of other settings you want to set between Gmail and your Outlook as well. For example, you want to set your Outlook to leave the messages on the server, and then probably delete them after 2 days (so they don't build up eating up hard drive space). Then in Gmail, make sure that that too does not delete the messages from the server, so that if Gmail checks it first, it leaves it there for your main Outlook account to still get. Gmail is very powerful, as is Outlook so go through your settings to make sure they are all set up the way you want. I'm sure I'm forgetting some things you need to do, so take this guide as a starting point.
On your phone...
Menu->Settings->Data Syncronization->Google
- have auto-sync turned off, & background data turned on (for other apps that likely need it)
- shut off gmail syncronization from the settings menu.
- set up microsoft exchange activesync with gmail:
the whole point of doing this instead of just using the gmail app is to do two things:
1) let us use HTC's nice mail widget to preview and flip through messages, and
2) to have an envelope indicating we have new mail up in the notification bar instead of an @ sign that the Gmail App shows.
Also, if you just set it up as POP3 mail (which you could do to achieve the same thing) the mail notifications will be much slower, and it will eat up your battery life. The Exchange ActiveSync will preserve battery life and push mail to you like the Gmail app does. So again the point here is so you can use the HTC Mail Widget (2 points above)
So to set up ActiveSync with Gmail:
email address (all lower case): user@gmail.com
server address (all lower case):m.google.com
domain:<leave blank>
username (all UPPER CASE): USER@GMAIL.COM
password:<your password>
- Probably do not sync your contacts, this can screw up what you already have.
- Schedule as items arrive.
Now you can add the HTC Mail widget to neatly view messages in a widget, and you'll have an envelope at the top when you get new mail instead of the gmail @ sign, save battery, filter out spam and other unnecessary messages from getting to your phone, and other reasons listed above.
My college has Microsoft Office Outlook Web Access email. Is it possible to get this on my Eris? If I need to contact the Help Desk at school what information do I need to ask them? I can access it from a browser but thats a pain.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI finally got my work email sync'd on my Android phone (Outlook). However, all my annoying meetings from work are now popping up as "notifications" in my phone's status bar. I can't stand corporate meetings, which are a colossal waster of time, and i don't want to be reminded of all the meetings on my work schedule. I was able to successfully turn of the Outlook mail notifications on my phone (and I still get Gmail notifications, since they are two separate email systems, which is exactly what I want). How do I turn my "Outlook calendar reminders," but still be reminded of my Google Calendar reminders, which is my personal, and far more important, calendar?

After I initiated a sync, the phone will reboot itself (after a couple of minutes, during the stage "Preparing data from your phone") and return the error "2 General" "No connection to the phone". I have done "Factory data reset" a few times. Every time I have done the factory reset, it will work for a while and then the problem will come back again.

I want to create an event on my phone calendar and have that display in my Outlook calendar on my computer. What do I need to do to make that possible? Events created on my phone will not display in my Google calendar or my Outlook.
I have a Droid X2. I downloaded Google Calendar Sync to my computer which synced my Outlook with my Gmail calendar, and that displayed on my phone, but events created on the phone do not display in the Google calendar or Outlook.

I just go hero and I went to the Pop3 setting and started to insert my microsoft pop3 account setting in the fields as prompted.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI've searched the forums and looked at the Sticky above, but it doesn't seem to answer the question. We have one staff member here that bought a Droid Eris (Verizon) and unlike the Motorola Droid, I can't get this phone setup via Active Sync to our exchange server. I setup his account on my phone (M Droid) and it worked perfectly...messages, contacts and calendar all synced up fine. I go back to his Eris, and it says the account cannot be created at this time. All the settings are the same etc., so I'm a little stumped. I called Verizon and they said to wait for the new 2.0 upgrade that's supposed to be coming, but they weren't sure if that had been addressed or not. Am I missing something, or does the HTC Droid Eris not fully work with Active Sync with MS Exchange 2003?
