Is there any plan to support this phone? The O2 Xphone is a Smartphone, and Smartphones are not officially support by MissingSync for Pocket PC. The issue is that some Smartphone mobile operators use different security models which don't allow us to synchronize contacts, appointments and tasks. Mounting of the device, installing applications, iTunes, iPhoto, and internet sharing should work with all security models. The 1.0.4b1 version which is posted to will recognize significantly more devices than any previous version. We've had reports of users having success with the MPx200 using AT&T and T-Mobile Germany. However, we've also heard of problems with the MPx200 on AT&T. We'll keep looking and if there are any devices and mobile operators we can officially support, we'll let the list know. If you already own a copy of Missing Sync for Pocket PC, feel free to give 1.0.4b1 a try with any Smartphones, but please realize they are not officially supported. Although if they work, I'd like to hear about it. > Another question. If I have 2 Pocket PC devices registered under my > name, > will MissingSync allow me to sync both the devices?

Starting with the 1.0.4 version, we are changing our licensing model to support multiple devices, on upto 2 Macs with a single license of Missing Sync for Pocket PC. If you still have your "Temporary Registration Code" which was sent to you in your original order email, you can use that code to register a second device with the 1.0.4b1 version. You can still only have one device connected at a time though just like on a PC, Dave Koziol Mark/Space, Inc.

There are a few more features I would like to see added to MS: 1) An option to synchronize the pocket PC clock with the mac clock. 2) The ability to automaticly convert file formats when copying files to and from the handheld. 3) File synchronization (not just backup). 4) The ability to see exactly what contacts and events that are changed and to choose what to do with each one of them if you have ticked 'Show Data Change Alert when any of the data on this computer will be changed' in iSync's preference pane. 5) The ability to see exactly what contacts and events that are changed and to choose what to do with each one of them when there is a conflict. Now you just have to make a wild guess and hope you keep the most recent one. > Version 1.0.4 is currently in late beta. I have installed it and had no problems so far. -- Tor S.

I just installed 1.0.4b1 and my O2 Xphone is recognized as a SmartPhone with device type Qtek8080NS. Isync recognizes the device and shows a Pocket PC PDA icon. Isync then proceeds to sync with Address Book and iCal. Progress bar says its writing N contacts and Y calender entries to the device but when I checked the Xphone contact and calender apps, I don't see the new entries. So it's currently like a fake sync. At least for now I can doubleclick on the Xphone icon and explore the phone. Looks promising.

Basically this means that O2 uses a security policy which prevents us from accessing the contacts, appointments and tasks databases. However, you should be able to copy files on the phone, install software, and share the Mac's internet connection with the phone. Dave Koziol Mark/Space, Inc.

You could write an AppleScript to suck information from AddressBook, and then import/export them from FileMaker Pro. Personally, I find AppleScript language daunting, so for me, I would use Perl. Either use Mac::Glue to get at AppleScript, or just do the down and dirty method: Drag the contacts into a folder, which creates a bunch of vCards (files with .vcf). Use Perl to read through the files and create a .CSV that can be imported into FileMaker Pro. FileMaker likewise can be exported to a .CSV file, which then can be used through a crafty script to either insert the contacts into AddressBook, or create vCards that can be dragged into AddressBook. Once inside AddressBook, MissingSync for PPC can synchronize the information. The best solution would be for FileMaker (or a third party) to develop a iSync plug-in, but Apple does not plubically document the API. - Joaquin Menchaca __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

I just wanted to comment on item 2. I think that would be a good feature, as long as this can be configured. I don't want to loose the desktop mounting feature. I run perl scripts to catalog my PocketPC, so that I can note changes, observe how applications are installed (in their many places), and avoid potential misconfigurations introduced bad programs or OS bugs. Under Windoze with ActiveStink, there's some browser for the PocketPC file system, but this is only a browser. It is not truly mounted as a real drive, and thus I cannot access it. The same thing happens with the other product (ahem, PocketMac one), where there is a browser, but no real access. MissingSync for PPC has the most useful access to the PocketPCs files, as not only can their tools access it and do their magic, but I can write tools to get at the information. One feature though, I think is very important, is the ability to synchronize NOTES. I would like the little notes on my iPod and maybe as something else on the Mac. It would be nice to have Entourage v.X/2K4 support, and support for PocketWord/Excel conversion to Word 2004 and Excel 2004. > There are a few more features I would like to see > added to MS: > 1) An option to synchronize the pocket PC clock with > the mac clock. > 2) The ability to automaticly convert file formats > when copying files to > and from the handheld. > 3) File synchronization (not just backup). > 4) The ability to see exactly what contacts and > events that are changed > and to choose what to do with each one of them if > you have ticked 'Show > Data Change Alert when any of the data on this > computer will be changed' > in iSync's preference pane. > 5) The ability to see exactly what contacts and > events that are changed > and to choose what to do with each one of them when > there is a conflict. > Now you just have to make a wild guess and hope you > keep the most recent > one. > > > Version 1.0.4 is currently in late beta. > > I have installed it and had no problems so far. > > -- > Tor S.

If you can note the last number we can try to then look at the actual data file. If your handheld has a backup program you'll need to create a backup of your PIM data (Calendar data only) and send that to support@markspace.com along with repeating a description of the problem.

Here is a problem that has been annoying me (well, truth me told, driving me nuts) since I purchased my O2 XDA2 device and Missing Sync about one week ago. My computer is a G5 and I am running system 10.3.3. I will outline the problem step by step. First, this is what WORKS. 1. Create a new appointment on the PPC. 2. Set it with the option to be reminded of the meeting say 5 minutes before. 3. Do a sync. 4. The PPC will remind you 5 minutes before the meeting according to your settings in the Alarms and Notifications panel. On the Mac side, iCal will also do the same. So everything works as it should. This is what DOESN?T WORK. 1. Create a new event in iCal. Set it so that you are reminded say minutes with a message and sound. 2. Do a sync. 3. The appointment appears on the PPC. But guess what? The reminder does NOT come on. Grrrr. I have tried the following: 1. Setting the event in iCal in the XDA calendar (my name for the default calendar in iSync for events created on the PPC) 2. Setting the event in the To Do calendar in iCal. 3. Setting the event in iCal without any alarm. 4. Repeating 1 to 3 above and then removing the device from the cradle. 5. Repeating 1 to 3 above and then removing the device from the cradle and performing a soft reset. 6. I have even copied the default sounds from the PPC, copied them to the Mac, converted them to AIFF (maintaining the exact same name as used on the PPC), put them in my ~/Library/Sounds folder so that I can access them via iCal and repeated all the steps above. Nada. Events created in iCal do not trigger the reminder on the PPC. 7. I did a hard reset of the PPC so that no new software was loaded, repeated everything above and still got the same problem. No matter what I try, any event created in iCal and synced to the PPC, will not trigger the notification alarm on the PPC. Anyone else having this problem? Anyone have any suggestions?

It doesn't occur with "real" ActiveSync to a PC, and I'm pretty sure I know why. Real "ActiveSync" fires off a Notification event called "ActiveSyncDone" (or something similar) on the Pocket PC when it's done. Calendar applications use this event/notification to rescan the calendar databases to check for new alarms. It doesn't look like Missing Sync for Pocket PC generates this notification when it's done synchronizing the calendars and ToDo items. Doing so should solve the problem.

Is there any plan to support this phone? The O2 Xphone is a Smartphone, and Smartphones are not officially support by MissingSync for Pocket PC. The issue is that some Smartphone mobile operators use different security models which don't allow us to synchronize contacts, appointments and tasks. Mounting of the device, installing applications, iTunes, iPhoto, and internet sharing should work with all security models. The 1.0.4b1 version which is posted to will recognize significantly more devices than any previous version. We've had reports of users having success with the MPx200 using AT&T and T-Mobile Germany. However, we've also heard of problems with the MPx200 on AT&T. We'll keep looking and if there are any devices and mobile operators we can officially support, we'll let the list know. If you already own a copy of Missing Sync for Pocket PC, feel free to give 1.0.4b1 a try with any Smartphones, but please realize they are not officially supported. Although if they work, I'd like to hear about it. > Another question. If I have 2 Pocket PC devices registered under my > name, > will MissingSync allow me to sync both the devices?

Starting with the 1.0.4 version, we are changing our licensing model to support multiple devices, on upto 2 Macs with a single license of Missing Sync for Pocket PC. If you still have your "Temporary Registration Code" which was sent to you in your original order email, you can use that code to register a second device with the 1.0.4b1 version. You can still only have one device connected at a time though just like on a PC, Dave Koziol Mark/Space, Inc.

There are a few more features I would like to see added to MS: 1) An option to synchronize the pocket PC clock with the mac clock. 2) The ability to automaticly convert file formats when copying files to and from the handheld. 3) File synchronization (not just backup). 4) The ability to see exactly what contacts and events that are changed and to choose what to do with each one of them if you have ticked 'Show Data Change Alert when any of the data on this computer will be changed' in iSync's preference pane. 5) The ability to see exactly what contacts and events that are changed and to choose what to do with each one of them when there is a conflict. Now you just have to make a wild guess and hope you keep the most recent one. > Version 1.0.4 is currently in late beta. I have installed it and had no problems so far. -- Tor S.

I just installed 1.0.4b1 and my O2 Xphone is recognized as a SmartPhone with device type Qtek8080NS. Isync recognizes the device and shows a Pocket PC PDA icon. Isync then proceeds to sync with Address Book and iCal. Progress bar says its writing N contacts and Y calender entries to the device but when I checked the Xphone contact and calender apps, I don't see the new entries. So it's currently like a fake sync. At least for now I can doubleclick on the Xphone icon and explore the phone. Looks promising.

Basically this means that O2 uses a security policy which prevents us from accessing the contacts, appointments and tasks databases. However, you should be able to copy files on the phone, install software, and share the Mac's internet connection with the phone. Dave Koziol Mark/Space, Inc.

You could write an AppleScript to suck information from AddressBook, and then import/export them from FileMaker Pro. Personally, I find AppleScript language daunting, so for me, I would use Perl. Either use Mac::Glue to get at AppleScript, or just do the down and dirty method: Drag the contacts into a folder, which creates a bunch of vCards (files with .vcf). Use Perl to read through the files and create a .CSV that can be imported into FileMaker Pro. FileMaker likewise can be exported to a .CSV file, which then can be used through a crafty script to either insert the contacts into AddressBook, or create vCards that can be dragged into AddressBook. Once inside AddressBook, MissingSync for PPC can synchronize the information. The best solution would be for FileMaker (or a third party) to develop a iSync plug-in, but Apple does not plubically document the API. - Joaquin Menchaca __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

I just wanted to comment on item 2. I think that would be a good feature, as long as this can be configured. I don't want to loose the desktop mounting feature. I run perl scripts to catalog my PocketPC, so that I can note changes, observe how applications are installed (in their many places), and avoid potential misconfigurations introduced bad programs or OS bugs. Under Windoze with ActiveStink, there's some browser for the PocketPC file system, but this is only a browser. It is not truly mounted as a real drive, and thus I cannot access it. The same thing happens with the other product (ahem, PocketMac one), where there is a browser, but no real access. MissingSync for PPC has the most useful access to the PocketPCs files, as not only can their tools access it and do their magic, but I can write tools to get at the information. One feature though, I think is very important, is the ability to synchronize NOTES. I would like the little notes on my iPod and maybe as something else on the Mac. It would be nice to have Entourage v.X/2K4 support, and support for PocketWord/Excel conversion to Word 2004 and Excel 2004. > There are a few more features I would like to see > added to MS: > 1) An option to synchronize the pocket PC clock with > the mac clock. > 2) The ability to automaticly convert file formats > when copying files to > and from the handheld. > 3) File synchronization (not just backup). > 4) The ability to see exactly what contacts and > events that are changed > and to choose what to do with each one of them if > you have ticked 'Show > Data Change Alert when any of the data on this > computer will be changed' > in iSync's preference pane. > 5) The ability to see exactly what contacts and > events that are changed > and to choose what to do with each one of them when > there is a conflict. > Now you just have to make a wild guess and hope you > keep the most recent > one. > > > Version 1.0.4 is currently in late beta. > > I have installed it and had no problems so far. > > -- > Tor S.

If you can note the last number we can try to then look at the actual data file. If your handheld has a backup program you'll need to create a backup of your PIM data (Calendar data only) and send that to support@markspace.com along with repeating a description of the problem.

You may end up having to do a hard reset. If you can you sync with ActiveSync you might try to then export your data as vCal files or even just tab delimited and import it into iCal. Then hard reset your handheld and sync from your Mac using the Missing Sync. Ken On Apr 20, 2004, at 4:31 PM, Jamie Gordon wrote: > I think that would be spritesoftware.com.

Here is a problem that has been annoying me (well, truth me told, driving me nuts) since I purchased my O2 XDA2 device and Missing Sync about one week ago. My computer is a G5 and I am running system 10.3.3. I will outline the problem step by step. First, this is what WORKS. 1. Create a new appointment on the PPC. 2. Set it with the option to be reminded of the meeting say 5 minutes before. 3. Do a sync. 4. The PPC will remind you 5 minutes before the meeting according to your settings in the Alarms and Notifications panel. On the Mac side, iCal will also do the same. So everything works as it should. This is what DOESN?T WORK. 1. Create a new event in iCal. Set it so that you are reminded say minutes with a message and sound. 2. Do a sync. 3. The appointment appears on the PPC. But guess what? The reminder does NOT come on. Grrrr. I have tried the following: 1. Setting the event in iCal in the XDA calendar (my name for the default calendar in iSync for events created on the PPC) 2. Setting the event in the To Do calendar in iCal. 3. Setting the event in iCal without any alarm. 4. Repeating 1 to 3 above and then removing the device from the cradle. 5. Repeating 1 to 3 above and then removing the device from the cradle and performing a soft reset. 6. I have even copied the default sounds from the PPC, copied them to the Mac, converted them to AIFF (maintaining the exact same name as used on the PPC), put them in my ~/Library/Sounds folder so that I can access them via iCal and repeated all the steps above. Nada. Events created in iCal do not trigger the reminder on the PPC. 7. I did a hard reset of the PPC so that no new software was loaded, repeated everything above and still got the same problem. No matter what I try, any event created in iCal and synced to the PPC, will not trigger the notification alarm on the PPC. Anyone else having this problem? Anyone have any suggestions?

It doesn't occur with "real" ActiveSync to a PC, and I'm pretty sure I know why. Real "ActiveSync" fires off a Notification event called "ActiveSyncDone" (or something similar) on the Pocket PC when it's done. Calendar applications use this event/notification to rescan the calendar databases to check for new alarms. It doesn't look like Missing Sync for Pocket PC generates this notification when it's done synchronizing the calendars and ToDo items. Doing so should solve the problem.

Boy, that would totally rock. Love to see "photo" support, too, for those of us with Pocket PC Phone Edition: getting the pictures over and associated with the caller ID record (which currently has to be done manually) would be very nice indeed. -- Dave Nanian From dkoziol at markspace.com Fri Apr 9 13:57:29 2004 From: dkoziol at markspace.com (Dave Koziol) Date: Thu Aug 18 09:16:49 2005 Subject: [missing-sync-pocketpc-talk] Missing Sync for Pocket PC 1.0.4b1 Now Available Message-ID: <839FD6CD-8A68-11D8-B633-000393830242@markspace.com> We have posted Missing Sync for Pocket PC 1.0.4b1 on our website.

Yes. It is being addressed in the update that will come *after* 1.0.4 (and we've already starting on that version). Version 1.0.4 is currently in late beta.

Is there any plan to support this phone? The O2 Xphone is a Smartphone, and Smartphones are not officially support by MissingSync for Pocket PC. The issue is that some Smartphone mobile operators use different security models which don't allow us to synchronize contacts, appointments and tasks. Mounting of the device, installing applications, iTunes, iPhoto, and internet sharing should work with all security models. The 1.0.4b1 version which is posted to will recognize significantly more devices than any previous version. We've had reports of users having success with the MPx200 using AT&T and T-Mobile Germany. However, we've also heard of problems with the MPx200 on AT&T. We'll keep looking and if there are any devices and mobile operators we can officially support, we'll let the list know. If you already own a copy of Missing Sync for Pocket PC, feel free to give 1.0.4b1 a try with any Smartphones, but please realize they are not officially supported. Although if they work, I'd like to hear about it. > Another question. If I have 2 Pocket PC devices registered under my > name, > will MissingSync allow me to sync both the devices?

Starting with the 1.0.4 version, we are changing our licensing model to support multiple devices, on upto 2 Macs with a single license of Missing Sync for Pocket PC. If you still have your "Temporary Registration Code" which was sent to you in your original order email, you can use that code to register a second device with the 1.0.4b1 version. You can still only have one device connected at a time though just like on a PC, Dave Koziol Mark/Space, Inc.
