Question: Have you ever hot synced successfully? If not, check to make sure that when you installed the software that you did not select "Sync with MS Outlook". If MS Outlook is installed on your computer see if your calendar items, contacts and tasks are within those folders.

If you have hot synced successfully in the past, check your sync settings in the hot sync manager "custom" area. Make sure that all the actions for the different conduits state "Sychronize the file"

Hello, I have an issue that may be related. I have successfully sync'd previously. For some reason, a week ago I performed a hard reset on my Treo. I then subsequently sync'd on my Treo to download my work calendar from Outlook Express to my phone. Unfortunately, not only did the information not transfer from Outlook to the Treo, it appears that my entire Outlook calendar has been erased!!

If anyone has any constructive ideas on how I might revive my calendar (including on Outlook), please let me know.

Thank you,
Scott

Anyone seen this issue or have an idea on how to recover the calendar?

Outlook stores all your data (email messages, contacts, your calendars, and more) in ominous "Personal Folder" (.pst) files. They are proprietary and complicated, and it's a good idea to back them up now and then. First you need to find the location where Outlook keeps your .pst files, however. Where Outlook Stores Your Mail, Calendar and Other Data

To identify the folder where Outlook 2003 stores your email messages and other data:

• Select File | Data File Management... from the menu (in Outlook).
• Highlight your main data file (typically named Personal Folders).
• Click Open Folder....

If you have created backup copies of your Outlook .pst files, you're well prepared for disaster. Restoring lost mail, contacts, calendar or other data from the backup copy is easy in Outlook. Restore Outlook Mail, Contacts and Other Data from a Backup

• Now use the Browse button to select the backup copy of the PST file you want to recover from your backup location.
