Activesynch and Exchange Server

**jibtrim** · 05-28-2008, 03:13 PM

I am using a Treo 750 (WM 6.0) with AS 4.5 and I have a synch question. I can synch files and photos just fine, but my calendar and contacts are a problem as I use exchange server for these corporate items. Is there a way to enter these via activesynch on one computer (home) and the other OTA? Perhaps I may be dreaming, but gas is $0.07 per gallon in my dream world.

Hmm... I think it's one or the other, meaning that if you tell it to sync with "this PC" at home, then it will kill you exchange sync.

If you want to get the calendar and contacts onto your home PC as well, then there are a few other things you could try:

* If it's reachable from home, add the exchange account to your home PC.

* Copy your addresses and calendar to a .pst file and bring it home on a jump drive, then import it to your outlook. (note: this won't stay synced)

* Set your Treo to sync with Exchange for email only, and use the PC connection for everything else. Set your home PC the same way. This should allow calendar and contacts to propogate from your treo, but your treo would only get calendar/contact updates when you synced with your work PC.

If I have time, I might play with this some when I get home tonight. I'll let you know if I come up with anything else.

Fastlerner you must have been...Slowlerner I am (insert Yoda voice here). What do you know about changing a water pump in a 1994 Ford Eddie Bauer Edition Explorer 4X4? Heck, you have everything else nailed so I thought I would give this a try as well.

Thanks again,
