Sync your Contacts and Outlook Calender


FYI for other users that are switching to a G1: Basically I am huge user of Outlook 2007 & the rest of the MS Office family I have/had a T-Mobile Dash and I love it but its time to move on The 2 biggest deals breakers for me was no tethering (sp?) with my laptop and no sync for outlook (basically for calender as contacts get less updating and go directly on the phone) Tether- hopefully someone will make it work (come on, I got the internet on my Dash for 5.99 with just 2 proxy settings) Well back to the point..... There are a couple of ways to get your contacts to your G1 First... I tried downloading the Wrike program and guess what, it does not work because I don't have Exchange Server 2007 yet maybe 90% of this site doesn't either Second... I tried exporting my Outlook contacts into a CSV file then importing them into my Google contacts but some names did not come up properly, so that did not work Third... I finally decided just to load all my contacts from my old phone onto my SIM card (each phone varies on this process but it is pretty simple), then I popped into my G1. After that, go to your contacts, click Menu, then settings, then SIM contacts importer. BAM! it work perfectly, of course I do not get any emails with my contacts but names and numbers are more important Now.. Outlook Calender Sync.

Download the program which is made by Google and install it And thats it!!!! But it gets even better ..... Way better. Now you can just modify everything thru Gmail on any computer at any time Contacts - you can update emails,names, numbers and etc. Calender - you can plan, update appointments and etc. Contacts will sync between Gmail and your G1 Calender will sync between Outlook, Gmail and your G1 EVERYTHING WILL BE UPDATED AUTOMATICALLY WITH NO CABLES!!! No more damn USB errors or forgetting to sync it!!! I just wanted to post my experience so maybe it can help others
