Whats the easiest way to get the contacts from my iphone onto my leo ?...i believe that 'my phone' can do the job but i thought there may be an easier way to sync them to it.
Try syncing the contacts to outlook.
Iphone contacts (mac) to outlook (micro$oft) i would not of thought it possibly...i will try though
Well, if you have a PC near by you it should work, since ActiveSync syncs up outlook contacts with WM devices.
I understand that...but active sync and outlook wont connect with the iphone

Hmm, I remember I made iTunes sync with outlook before. That was a when I had the 1st Gen iPhone.
Yeah you were right...its buried in itunes but it is possible, i just dumped them to outlook, there is also an option to dump them to windows contacts but i believe that is reffering to windows address book in which case i am running windows 7 and that is no longer part of the OS.
Thanks.
No problem, I had this similar issue switching from an iPhone to a WM phone a while back.

You must be kidding. I HATE that program lol
However, if I install it, sync my phone. Can I edit all the contacts in outlook, resync at they will all be sorted on my phone?
Installed it, but WM Sync program doesnt think its installed...

Do you have installed "outlook" or "outlook express" ?
In activesync do you see other options? like "files sync" or "media sync"?

I also hate outlook, coming thru win 98 to xp with outlook express which Im very used to.
I had to install outlook a few times to get it to work with my x1, my outlook is configured not to be the default mail program on the pc so I still use out-express on the pc and only start outlook for syncing the x1.
It (mine) keeps a different address book from express so you can configure what you want in outlook and sync to phone as required.
It took me a couple of hours to sort my contacts from uiq.
recently got my X1 but having some difficulties transfering my contacts to my X1 from my iphone. someone help thanks.
Its easy if you have a Mac? You can sync everything from your Mac to WM devices with some sync tools. On Windows though, i dont know. Not sure if Iphone can sync with outlook.
do you ever call using iphone?
Use Zyb

if you are using windows, download itunes for windows use this to sync the iphone and outlook. After that, sync your Xperia with Outlook with activesync

outlook or even windows live mail would do. itunes recognises files from either of them
Hi there, I'm pretty new to the WinMo scene, i had a touch pro 2 then went to an iphone which ive had for 2 years.
So I back my Iphone contacts up to "windows contacts" in windows 7.
Then i thought it would be as easy as using mobile sync manager and ticking a box to sync them with my HD2, but things are never so easy, there is no option to do so.
So how will i go about getting my contacts from windows onto my beloved HD2?
Try using My Phone, you can install it from the market place.

Setting up Exchange could help you. There are some free services. Also, Windows Mobile Device Center will sync your Outlook Contacts.

Unfortunately, Microsoft almost disabled Windows Contacts in Windows 7.
The recommended solution for you would be to get a Windows Live ID from www.hotmail.com.
Then, in Hotmail, go to the "People"-page. On that webpage, there is a menu link, choose: "Manage"->"Import". Choose import from Windows Contacts.
Your contacts will then be imported to Hotmail.
On your phone, install the Windows Live program, add your hotmail credentials. You can choose to sync your contacts between you phone and hotmail on a regular interval.
For your windows desktop, you can download the Windows Live Mail client from http://download.live.com
Add your Windows Live ID credentials and you now have a similar solution to Apple Mobile Me.
The only drawback is that for some incomprehensible reason Microsoft in their infinate wisdom have disabled Calendar sync from Hotmail to your phone. But, mail and contacts will sync between your desktop, the cloud (www.hotmail.com) and your phone.
Of course, you can still add your other e.mail accounts to the phone if you do not want to use hotmail for anything else than a contact sync solution
Also, because of the decisions microsoft made for Windows 7 and Hotmail, you no longer will be able to find your contacts on your computer by using the search feature on the Start Menu. The only way to find your contacts is to open the WIndows Live Mail client, navigate to Contacts and search from there.
Hi guys! Just got my X10 yesterday and been trying to figure out what software to use to synchronize my X10 with my PC (i have Windows 7 64 bit). I have downloaded and installed SE PC Suite but no joy there, it could not recognize my phone. I would like to synchronize contacts from Outlook on my PC to my phone and will appreciate it if any one could help. Thanks!
With or without the cloud? Are you wishing to continue using outlook or just trying to move your contacts over?
Try to get your contacts uploaded over to gmail instead.
Use google to sync....
what kind of phone do you have? other than x10?
the google server that you use is:
m.google.com
username
password
etc.
I can't sync my X10 with pc suite either.
Got it now. The Synch software is in the supplied SD Card and it's what i used to install the PC software. Now using Sony Ericsson Sync and Google as well. Thanks to all those who responded!
Does the Gmail sync maintain categories? I know some people who have tried to sync their Outlook with Gmail and lost the categorisation.
Cloud computing = FAIL. Either store everything on your PC/phone or enjoy losing your data.
I can still don't connect to my X10 from SE PC Suite.
any one got idea?
I'm run win7 64. I can connect SE Media Go and see it in the Explore

X10 uses Sony Ericsson PC Companion, which is bundled on the SD card. PC Suite is only for old devices i think
Ok. Sad PC Companion can't read SMS
Ok, I'm borrowing this thread a bit...
Can someone tell me how to sync X10 from Outlook?
Is there a way to sync X10 with Gmail? And sync Gmail and Outlook automatically?
I would like to have same contacts/calendar in X10/Gmail/Outlook. If I change or add data in one of them, all the others will sync automatically.
It doesn't matter if it is a program that cost money.
In settings for my X10, I can only choose "Sync with Gmail". Google Sync and SE sync are disabled and can't be chosen. What is wrong?
I also want pictures in contact to be synced as well.
Perhaps this can be of interest?
Google Apps Outlook sync.

I struggled for a long time with the same thing. In fact you need to tap the line ABOVE Google Sync (should be called "select sync program" or similar). Then you get to choose SE sync or Google sync.
SE sync synchronises profile pictures. I like the SE sync website. I didn't bother testing Google sync yet.
need some advice here.
for some weird reasons, the install file that comes with my X10 cannot be installed on my Vista laptop, but worked perfectly on my XP laptop.
Is there something that I shld do to make it install on Vista?
thanks

Don't know if it will help you since I sync with my Mac and iCal... but the way I did it was to make both my mac and the phone to sync to google.
To get my diffent calenders, "work" and "personal" not to merge in google calender i first exported then as a cal-file (I think you can do this in outlook as well) and then made new calenders in google calender and imported each of them to a "work" and "personal" calender in google.
Then I set up the phone to sync to google and got all my calender-stuff.
Now I went to iCal.. disabled the calenders i had exported earlier and went to settings/account (I hope the names is somewhat like this.. I have a swedish computer...)
There I set up a CalDAV-account with all my google-account information. Under "Delegation" i then selected the "work" and "personal"-calender.
Now I got the two calender back, all synced from google calender and up to date with the phone.
The adress book had a setting to sync with Google under settings/account as well.. worked right away. Except I had tried to use some other sync-program before, and that made my computer think that the contacts that was already synced with google was new.. so I got a lot of doubles. I had taken a backup before, so I deleted all contacts and restored it, and synced again.
Now my adress book and my calender is up to date on my computer, on the web and in my phone all the time.

I installed the Google Calendar sync application on my work laptop and my home machine which both run Outlook.
This application syncs a Google Mail Contacts and Calendar with the outlook accounts and vice-versa.
Sync your phone with your Google account and voila: Contacts and Calendar on two PCs, the web and my phone and all self-update.
Then use FBSync to link your phone contacts with your Facebook ones and let Timescape rip!
I am unable to sync mail as I work for a security company, but the supplied Moxier App syncs with Outlook.
Instead I simply hard coded my home email details into the Xperia's Email app, which also shoves it straight into Timescape.
if you do use Moxier, be warned that it seems to be a major factor in poor battery life.
