Re: Contact and Calendar notes



I use a K-Jam and sync with two computers with few problems. There are
cases with notes where you edit a note on the device, sync with one PC,
change the note again, maybe on the PC, sync the device with the other PC,
then return to the first one and end up with multiple versions of the note
Grocery List, Grocery List1 or something, but notes are relatively reliable
for me.

What version of Outlook are you using? Same on both machines? You're using
Notes created, not as separate files, but as Notes in Outlook, right?

I never had a WM2003 device, but syncing takes a relatively short period,
after the initial sync to each PC (maybe a minute, if the PC is busy).

I think we're going to need a *lot* more information and investigation
before a solution becomes apparent. You might eliminate the partnership to
one PC on the device (via the ActiveSync application running on the device),
and see if syncing with just the one partner does anything for your
performance. That's a pretty easy experiment (you'll want to delete the
partnership on the other PC, too, before recreating it, for cleanliness)...

Jon,

I thought I was the only one getting this. I am getting various problems
since upgrading to a WM5 device (I-Mate K-Jam) My previous Ipaq
synchronised
perfectly with the odd glitch now and then. For me as well as the notes
not
synchronising, i also get deletions not carrying across and synchronising
taking forever. I am synchronising with two PC's and I don't know whether
the
speed issue is related to this as it synchronises with two PC's in a
completely different way to how it did it previously. Hopefully someone
out
ther has a solution.

I've had a real nightmare with my phone since i upgraded from WM2003 to
WM5
(m500 to M600) with contacts and appointments with notes note syncing up.
I
was using AS4.5 and office 2003.
I take on board the point made here:
Hi,
The problem with synchronizing Notes attached to Contacts and
Appointments
is related to their size. The comments field in Contacts and
Appointments
is limited on the Windows Mobile side to about 16k.

but most of my notes are a couple of lines at the most.

I have solved the problem by exporting all my contacts and calendar to
csv,
and then downgrading to outlook 2002 which came with the phone. I now
have
all attached notes but an older version of outlook. Apparently if you
upgrade to office 2007 it works too.

First of all why does this occur: i presume it's due to the different way
that 2003 handles the .pst file.

Secondly is there any way of going back to 2003.
