Q1. I don't understand where the Contact list (and Calendar) from my phone, which I synchronised first, has been put (if at all) on the laptop PC. Could the problem have something to do with the fact that no E-Mail accounts were defined for Outlook ?
I think that after the initial ActiveSync attempt, I changed an option of ActiveSync to select "in case of conflict, preserve what is on the phone" (or something like that), before I tried syncing again (several times), but these attempts just show "synchronising" for a few seconds, with no apparent change at the end of it.
Q2. I don't really feel like spending upwards of EUR100 to purchase MS Outlook when the 60-day trial expires, just for backing up my phone's Contacts list and Calendar. I tried to see if I could simply copy these files to the PC, but I could find no named files or folders on the phone filetree (using File Explorer or ActiveSync's "Search phone" ) which looked like candidates to hold the information. Does anyone know of a cheap or free alternative to using ActiveSync with Outlook 2007, to back up the phone's Contacts and Calendar, and which does not require intimate knowledge of the phone's Outlook application to know where these data files are ? Alternatively, will ActiveSync work with Outlook Express, which is already installed on my laptop (I have never tried to use it)
Any help will be much appreciated.
