How to use contacts from Outlook account? I want to change my main account from gmail to outlook but I cannot found this option. Is there anyone that could explain it please on dumbie mode (my level of IT knowledge). Thanks a lot in advance.
Afaik you can only sync mail from outlook, in gmail... Didn't try with outlook app, maybe you can sync with that...
Note that actually we cannot create new hotmail accounts. Istead of that we create outlook accounts.

Isn't that a function that HTC Sync offers?
You can find it on the sd card of your phone.
I used export from Outlook and it worked fine, try using a different file type as google accepts oodles of different ones.
I don't know if it's possible with Outlook instead of Windows Mobile, but you can try.
Sync Outlook (contacts offcourse) through ActiveSync with the gmail server. (m.google.com I believe...) Then all your Outlook contacts should have been synced with gmail.
Maybe backup your contacts before trying.

I use Google Calendar Sync for that, works great http://dl.google.com/googlecalendarsync/GoogleCalendarSync_Installer.exe
Hi!
I have been searching an answer for this but haven´t found anything. I would like to sync my Contacts, Calendar and Tasks betwen my phone, google account and exchange server.
For example, if i add a contact or event to my phone´s calendar/contacts i would like it to automaticly sync to my exchange server account and also my google account.
Is it possible ? If yes, how ?
I have both accounts on my phone but when i create an event i have to choose were to sync.
Also i would like that the contacts and events i currently have on my phone were synced to exchange.
Hi,
firstly may I apologise if this has been covered, I did complete a search without
success.
I do not have Outlook on my pc,
is it possible to sync contacts with gmail without outlook, if not is there a relatively inexpensive method of purchasing Outlook ?

If you have a Gmail account and Android, you do not need Outlook at all.
Outlook can only sync with Gmail with Google Calendarsync AFAIK.
On your phone in Accounts and Synchronization, Add your gmail account and choose the items to sync.
- contacts
- gmail
- picasa
- calendar
What are you currently using on your pc as a contact manager application?
Backup your contacts to your SD card and then restore them but select your Gmail account to add them too. It will then sync the contacts to Gmail
Use MyPhoneExplorer which is free.
Thank you for the replies,
I do not have a contacts manager.
I have exported to SD card, deleted and copied back as google contacts,
it now appears to be a gmail upgrade problem as the phone error message
>Sync is currently experiencing problems. It will be back shortly<
I'll just have to wait to see if it works.

i agree. the outlook app is same as the old hotmail app which is to say very lousy and fairly ugly compared to standard android mail app
I would not recommend using the outlook app because it causes hours of wakelocks a day. Oddly enough the Hotmail one doesn't. Neither are really necessary.
I have installed the OUtlook app as I was using a Windows phone before. Now any new contact I save dissapppears as in a day. I cannot save new contacts, I cannot delete old contacts either.
Bump: Can somebody help?
If you have an exchange account, configure it via the Gmail exchange services and sync the contacts that way. Turn off contact sync in the outlook app.
