Re: How to sync Evolution with PDA (Windows Mobile) in Ubuntu 9.10


That's interesting - thank you. My HTC Wizard is also running WM6.5 but things are more difficult. It sounds like you're using exactly the same Ubuntu set-up as before, just syncing with WM6.5, right?

The only difference I can see in my set-up is that I have a web calendar set up on the Ubuntu side. Do you think it can interfere, even though there is a local Evolution calendar there?

In any case, I'll give it another shot but it will probably be with the next version of Ubuntu, Lucid. I screwed up my current Karmic (while trying to delete Cairo-Dock) and it starts only without GUI now. I tried to restore the GUI but failed. So, I'll probably just install Lucid when it's available and will try the sync again.

Thanks again.

Created a new partnership
Code:
synce-create-partnership "UbuntuDesktop" "Contacts,Calendar"
Then synced all my contact with Evolution (empty calendar, empty contacts list) and they were successfully transferred from my Windows Mobile to Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic Koala.

Then I added another contact, synced again and it was working. I played even more, and synchronization was always successful. I wish I didn't have to spend days to find out how it works

Some tutorials suggest to "Enable advanced network functionality" on a PDA, others suggest to disable it. I tried both options and it was working for me whether the advanced network functionality was enabled or not.
