Awesome! Thanks for the update rivviepop!!!!!

Hopefully I am not posting this in the wrong section.
Has anyone been able to get this to work with yahoo??

I downloaded the SyncJe BlackBerry Client. I am trying to sync it with yahoo to work with my calendar and contacts.

I am wondering if anyone can provide me with all of the setting info aside from my username and password.

According to the yahoo site I need to do the following.

Server Settings

· Go to your SyncML options/settings:

· Point to the following server: sync.next.go.yahoo.com.

· Data type for address book is “contacts”

· Data type for calendar is “calendar”

· You will need to enter your Yahoo! ID and password to sign into Yahoo!

I have tried this and cannot get it to work.

BTW None of the blackberry devices are listed on their compatibility list.

Yahoo! Mobile


Obviously I want to get this set up before I pay for the software.

cool. something new to explore that may save me having to retuorn my 8320...

The latest release of Barry ( SourceForge.net: Barry ) has packages for libopensync so just about to test multisync'ing my bb with a text file to start with. If it works then finally i can keep palm, google and wm devices in sync with bb

EDIT: YEY IT WORKED. Finally theres sync for BB without too much effort or any recompilation. So far its only contacts and calendar support but still its better than nothing.

oh sweet baby jesus, maybe it does pay to keep bugging these guys.

"Thank you for contacting SyncJe Technical Support!

Regarding your inquiry as to when Memopad/Notes support for devices with OS
4.2 and higher will be available for SyncJE, our lastest update is that this
will be available in the next release of the SyncJe client. There is no
exact ETA as of yet when this client will be released, however it will be
available on the website for download soon ."

Awesome! I have been bothering them as well!!!!

As a side note, I have been using Schedule World Welcome to ScheduleWorld to sync and it also will sync everything up with Google Contacts and Google Calendar....

PSA: it appears SyncBerry has fallen off the planet; the website is bunk and Handango has removed many links to buying the software (good thing I backed up the installer files I paid for!). I went looking for a newer version when I discovered this (they sent me a beta of an upcoming 4.2.0.0 release but I never heard from them again after that - that was 10 months ago).

It appears the only two players left are Nexthaus SyncJe and the Funambol client plugin (which hasn't been updated in a year and a half). Which really means the only player left in the game is Nexthaus SyncJe.

Finally got me an 8120. Downside is that its 4.3 OS isnt syncable under Barry. lsusb gives

Bus 005 Device 012: ID 0fca:8004 Research In Motion, Ltd.

A new device id. Doh. Hopefully itl work with only minor changes tho, just about to give it a try.

Hey LunkHead -- it appears that Mobile Creek software and SyncBerry have joined the deadpool, their website has been nonop for quite some time now and I get no emails back from them (I purchased it as well).

When you have a sec, could you edit the first post slightly to remove the SyncBerry / Mobile Creek references? It's a dead end now for anyone, bad information. :(

Yes sir!!

Done!

Thanks as they do appear to have fallen off the planet....

I am not sure if yahoo supports syncml. The information above does not work for me either. I have contacted their support to see if they can help. They may not be running a syncml server, but have it closed to only their clients.

I will respond here if I find any useful information.

As for Notes on the BB, still no real update for you guys, although we are now on version 2.37, which you can get here: Nexthaus > Synchronization Products > SyncJe for BlackBerry

We have been busy getting the Palm and iPhone versions of SyncJe released, so some other features have been delayed.

Hi Lou, thanks for taking the time and joining the forum/following up.

I'm not sure if you and I have spoken in email, but I'm one of the people who's been emailing for a year to get notes support added to the client. Everything else has been working great and the software is top-notch, I just really, really need this feature added to round out my complete device sync. Anything I can do to help y'all out in this regards please just say the word; we're here to help y'all out.

Thanks!

I will keep you updated on any news or progress... thanks for being patient.

Is it just me or is this forum very slow? Any way for me to speed it up? Like using a "lite" option or something?

The forum is being slow - there's a sticky here from Guess (Tom, site owner), the site is being crushed under the load of new users from the holidays, and the hardware is old and incapable. They have new hardware and are working on getting things fixed, moved, etc. - this happened last year but it wasn't this bad. The BB devices are getting more popular.

Has anyone else tried Google Synx with their blackberry? I tried it this weekend to sync my calendar and it removed all my events on my blackberry! Though they did make it to the google calendar, I find it quite odd that they disappeared from my phone. I thought the whole idea of syncing was to keep both devices up to date, which would mean leaving the events on my phone and adding them to my google calendar.

Has anyone else had this experience?

Actually, a number of folks have (myself included) and ran into similar problems. There's a thread in the AfterMarket subforum for the GoogleSync tool and everyone's reports, you might want to dig for it and read what other people have found out as well. (afraid I haven't seen it in awhile, so might have to dig back a month)

I'm not as important as you guys yet, so I have nothing in the calendar to manage. How about if I install this and pretend to be important and create all sorts of unmeaningful stuff?

I set this up on my curve and setup the account, but when select "start sync" I see in the log

Changes Client->Server
(none were sync, it says 0,0,0)

Changes Server -> Client
(none where synced, it says 0,0,0)

change client - > server
(none where synced, it says 0,0,0)

don't get any errors though.

Did you try turning on Debug mode, then using the 'Force Slow Sync' option?

Mandriva boasts improvements in synchronization with WM5 and WM6 devices. Blackberry allegedly tested as well:

OSNews.com

I'll believe it when I see it.

I have been using this Nexthaus/Mobical sync solution for several weeks now and I LOVE IT!! The $40 that I had to pay for Nexthaus's Sync software is more than worth the peace of mind I have from knowing that my data are backed up. Mobical supports calender, tasks, and contacts. It does not back up email and notes, but I am more concerned about losing the three things it DOES back up. I would highly recommend this solution to anyone.

My only real gripe with Nexthaus is that I've been after them for over a year to add Notes support to OS 4.2 devices, and have received "in a month" and "real soon" way too many times - a year ago. I have been hounding them for Notes support, it's killing me from properly using my BlackBerry.

Any other registered users (or trial users) who feel like emailing and asking where the h*ll Notes support is would be really cool. It's just horrible the treatment this need has gotten, the runaround and year long delay keeps me from really wanting to push their product.

Rivvie, how do I export my calendar? I did not see this function?

Mobical completely redesigned the website and lost a lot of functionality - I've sent emails telling them how much worse it is (with pointed examples and specific areas where they've made cardinal UI sins) but they claim "everyone loves it!" and don't really care. Import/export are gone, I don't even use their website anymore - it's lame "web 2.0" crap without any of the features and power it used to have.

EDIT: I should clarify I still use them to sync my device data to, just not the web login.

Ok, another plug for this Nexthaus/Mobical solution for syncing your BB. My old Curve recently died (I guess I dropped it one too many times) and I had to get a new one. There was a glitch with trasnferring my Nexthaus license over to my new BB, but their excellent customer support resolved the problem in 12 hours. I installed my Sync software from Nexthaus and had all my info from my old BB back up on my new device in several minutes. This really is a wonderful way to keep your information safe in the event that your BB totally dies. Had I not had this, I would have lost EVERYTHING. If you aren't able to sync you BB with your computer (or if you just want another option for backing up your information in the event that your computer crashes), invest in this. The price of Nexthaus's software (I believe it's $40 or so) is well worth the peace of mind. Their customer support is also lightening fast, so when there is an issue, it's resolved quickly.

everyone probably already knows about this but Google Sync Google Mobile - Sync works pretty well, it is only for Calendar though

Hey y'all - I've just written a new Howto for using completely free tools to sync:

http://www.blackberryforums.com/gene...mos-tasks.html

I've grown tired of waiting on Nexthaus to get off their a** and add Memo/Notes support (it's been 1.5yrs already - at this point their company is in "lame" territory with me, I need my dang notes backed up!) so I am trying to move over to the newly release Funambol 7 sync client. Initial tests are promising!

In the above link are instructions for Evolution/SyncEvolution as well for us linux nerds, it's worked without any problems for me.

Awesome rivvie!

For the interested.... Version 3 Beta is out and available for download from SyncJe

Having just read the entire thread, I gotta ask... Do they do memos/notes yet?

No not yet, and it 's a bummer.....
