PC Suite - HD2 General

many thanks

In a word- no specific PC suite, but you can download the synchronisation software.
What you need is Windows Mobile Device Centre (for Win7 or Vista) or Activesync (for XP) which will allow you to synchronise your data. Both of these are availble from Microsoft as downloads. If you are going to connect to the PC make sure to download and install the relevant program BEFORE connecting as otherwise there will be no compatible USB drivers.
The downside is that WinMo doesn't now include Outlook for the PC as it used to, and it won't sync with Windows Mail or Outlook Express, so unless you own or wish to buy Outlook there's little point in syncing. You will need to use the sync software if you want to apply an official ROM update.

Thank you for the information

thanks. i'll give it a try.
How about they actually get a working version on Vista RC1?!?! It isn't even built into the RC...which tells me they are going to have at least RC2 which they have done in the past, and even maybe RC3...
Too much junk in Vista don't work..
Anyway, this is really only worthwhile if you are not using MSFP2 and Exchange for Push..none of this really makes anything better with the software on the device itself..which is what they really need to do..increase features in the software on the device.
Two cents..thanks for the post link..
Once again...
An update from the Mobile and Embedded Devices Team: The Windows Mobile Device Center (WMDC) Application is an independent application apart from Windows Vista. Windows Vista RC1 includes the WMDC driver which enables you to sync music, acquire pictures and browse the contents of your device. The full WMDC application enables you to synchronize email, contacts, calendar appointments and more. The RC version of WMDC for Vista RC1 will ship very soon, while at this time WMDC is only available for Vista Beta 2.
rite now
im just installing it... cant wait to use

This was added in ActiveSync 4.2 at least. I recently added a bunch of photos to my contacts in Outlook 2003 and they transferred to my contacts on my Cingular 8125 on the next sync.... Not really a big deal, but just wanted to set the record straight.
Have they re-enabled the ability to sync Outlook contact categories in this release? Hope so!!

Once Again...RC1 has been out awhile now...and it doesn't have WMDC....I have it installed, and you have no options to sync anything like the current ActiveSync...my point is valid.
So, they still haven't brought back Wi-Fi sync? IIRC ActiveSync 3 had it but when I was using version 3 I had a Motorola Mpx220 without Wi-Fi but when I got my Wizard that actually had Wi-Fi I had to upgrade to AS 4.1 and lost my ability to sync with Wi-FI >_< </rant> Oh well, I'll try this out and see if it works for me.
Also, I must agree that AS 4.2 photo synced with my copy of Outlook 2003 just fine ^_^
EDIT: I wish that I read the download page before I ranted. At least they tell us WHY they dropped Wi-Fi Sync ^_^
• Remote PC Sync (via WiFi or LAN) has been removed due to Enterprise customer feedback around security issues.

Firstly, RC1 has not "been out for a while now". Secondly, if you read my post or did any research you would see that WMDC is simply not available at this point therefore your point is not valid.

Looks very nice.

Connect to vista?

has anyone actually been able to syn with vista ??
if so - amI missing something obvious - all i get is an option to connect to sync media files.....
You must download "Windows Mobile Device Center", you can download it from here http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/devicecenter.mspx
BTW this was already on other thread...
I assumed that I as I have the full vista premium, i did not need to download a beta product.....
unfortunately it seems the include windows mobile device centre in Vista caters to transfer and sync of AV media files but if you want the Activesync capabilities then you still need to download the beta version (3 i think still) from Microsoft to sync with PDA's
nod, and my thanks - lets just say that installing vista was... an entertaining experience!
I do now have it talking with my xda

Syncronize Xperia X2 with PC (windows 6.5)

To synchronize Xperia X2 (Windows mobile 6.5) with your PC first you need to install the necessary Microsoft software.
If your PC is running on Windows XP you need Microsoft Active Sync. But your device will not be recognized as an external Drive... so forget about it!!! (I can’t even view the device photos,with my version of Active sync) You can explore the Phone, add or delete files, but that’s it! What you know from Nokia Ovi suit or PC suite is not applied. It can happens that your contacts are doubled, tripled in the phone if you use the sync one after another, and it syncs automatically.
For Windows 7 you have to use Windows Mobile device center. Be shore that your phone is not connecte when you first install the programm.Mobile device center, seems to be better than Active Sync, but I prefer the old OVI. I find it easier!
I don't use Vista, so I can't tell you anything about it. As I understand you allso have to use Windows Mobile device center, ore easy Sync for this OS.
So don’t expect your phone to be simply Connected to the PC, and to be recognized as external Drive. You need the sw!

[Q] sync with outlook

I want to snyc my phone with outlook, but when I connect my device and open Windows Mobile Device Center and click snyc, I get error. I can't snyc it :S
This is error:
Your device cannot synchronize with the current Outlook profile on the desktop. This may be because a different profile was used to set up synchronization with your device, or because the profile is password-protected. Please open Outlook using the appropriat.
I reinstalled Windows Mobile Device Center and it's still the same error. My Outlook profile has no password, I don't even have e-mail profile in Outlook, I just want to transfer contacts.
What should I do, please help me
You may need to update drivers @ Cibale! to more easily use Ms. WMDC for Windows Vista (32 or 64- bit) you can get in :
- Vista (32-bit) http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?displaylang=en&id=14
- Vista (64-bit) at http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=3182
Drivers for what?
I don't have vista, I'm using win 7.. drivers on my PC are always up to date because of win 7 automatic (driver) updates
WMDC for Windows Vista also supports and works on windows 7
