Smartphones

[greenjack77]

Has entourage yet found a smartphone that it can talk to? I have tried
a number of different add-ins but all have failed to talk to my SE
P900 properly. I have had contacts' phone numbers swapping
(embarrassing) and meetings appearing at 9.00, 10.00, 11.00, 12.00 all
on the same day (awkward) and all day events like Christmas day
appearing on the 23rd, 24th, 25, 26th and 27th December (Ooops).

I just wish something out there would work.

Anybody know if Entourage works properly with any Smartphones?

How do you synchronise your smartphone with Entourage? Have you tried using
Sync Services (requires Mac OS X 10.4 and Entourage 2004 11.2.3 or above)? I
use Sync Services to synchronise contacts and calendars between Entourage,
my iPod and my mobile phone, and apart from the known limitations (not all
the fields synch across), this solution works extremely well for me.

I used iSync v2.4 with e2Sync and syncd using bluetooth. I cannot
remember which settings I used - I tried all sorts of combinations. I
was so fed up with losing the real data (appointment times and dates)
and having to load backups I stopped trying. All I do now is aim to
"sync" contacts once every blue moon. To do so I clear Address Book of
all contacts, clear my phone of contacts and then launch sync.

I am curently on OS X 10.4.9 and Entourage 11.3.3

Am I missing something, is Sync Services different to iSync?

I tried e2sync but it really messed up my data so I stopped using it.
I never did hear from the developer as to what the problem might have
been.
