P800 Calendar/Task Sync Question

Does anyone know if the P800 syncs the notes/body of Calendar and Task items when it syncs with MS Outlook? I know that both Palm and PocketPC syncs these fields, but my Series 60 phone (Nokia 3650) did not.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks -

Thanks in advance -

I will have my P800 tomorrow afternoon. I'll respond then if nobody else has.

Don't know about Outlook, but it does sync the notes from Lotus Notes calendar events and the to-do list.

Yes, it synched my notes from Outlook 2003 (beta) to the p800 on both tasks and calendar entries. However, (and this may be a beta bug) the note entries on my tasks were deleted in Outlook and retained on the p800. Additional synching did not move the notes back.

Also, notes created on the p800 were not synched to Outlook on either tasks or meetings.

Hope this helps.

I've heard of that bug, do a search for Office 2003. If you go back to Office XP, that won't happen.

Thanks for your response! You've swayed my opinion to buy a P800!

I appreciate your help!

Hi Roopesh,
Have you been able to sync your MS Outlook Calendar and Contacts?
I am unable to do it.
Although Tasks and Notes work fine.

Hemant,

I have been syncing MS Outlook Calendar, Contacts, Tasks, Notes, and Messages without a problem. Which version of Outlook are you using?

Not sure if I'm fully qualified to help you troubleshoot this, but I can try...

Hi Roopesh,
Thanks for the reply.
In the mean time I tried Master Reset on P800, reinstalled PC Suite on my PC, now it works.
Actually before Synching it with PC, I had already synched it with my Apple PowerBook (Mac OSX 10.2.6).
I don't know if I'd be able to sync it again with PowerBook as I use it at home.
Have my fingers crossed.
By the way, Thanks again.
