Outlook 2007 Calendars Contacts Notes not syncing with iPhone 3GS
 

Non-Outlook items (bookmarks, photos) sync OK with iPhone. Outlook
calendars, contacts, and notes do not. iTunes 9.0 and iPhone OS 3.1
configuration and settings have been tested OK by Apple. I suspect my
Outlook file definition (to integrate -.MSN Web mail with Outlook using
Outlook Connector) is amiss: although Outlook e-mail syncs fine with Hotmail,
the filename under Mail Setup shows as "not available" for my default mail
account. (Chaning this to generic "Outlook.pst" made no difference.) Any
thoughts?? Thanks.

I believe others have said connector accounts won't sync - the iphone users
at the apple forum will know for sure - iPhone forum for Mail, Calendar and

I contacted Microsoft support regarding this issue. They indicated that
the Outlook connector with MSN DOES NOT USE A PST FILE & the connector
is now required to use MSN with outlook. They could not help me &
referred me to Apple for a solution.

Instead, I found a way to sync my iphone with Outlook/connector. My
work-around was to add my Cox cable (my internet provider) email to
Outlook. I, then, made it my default. This created a PST file, which
the IPHONE REQUIRES for syncing (according to Apple...contacted them as
well) I, then, removed MSN & restarted Outlook. I added a contact & an
appointment & then ran a sync. It completed normally. (No more error
messages, either) I, then, re-added my MSN account, restarted outlook &
tried another sync. Worked fine.

I moved all my folders from my MSN account to the PST file under my Cox
email; & I copy files I want to keep from MSN to appropriate files under
my PST folder. Not perfect, but it does work. Hopefully, Apple will do
something at their end. I hate Apple-Microsoft feuding... After
copying emails I want to keep to the PST folder, I tend to delete them
in my MSN folders, which, then deletes them from my MSN account.
