As you may have seen in my other threads I have updated to WM6 on my O2 XDA Orbit. I'm experiencing a number of problems and have just noticed another which I thought deserved its own thread.
I am trying to copy all my contacts to my computer (Outlook 2007 on Vista) using the Sync Center. I've never actually done this before so it may be something I'm doing wrong - please forgive any stupid questions. Anyway, I have told it to sync contacts between my computer and my phone but this just doesn't happen - no new contacts appear in Outlook. I also created a test contact in Outlook but this does not appear on my device. Also, my calendar isn't synchronised either.
I have also tried syncing on my XP machine (also Outlook 2007) and it also doesn't work. That's using ActiveSync 4.5.
Is there a step of setup that I have missed? This is partly to do with attempting to solve one of my other problems and partly just because I want to keep backups that are in a readable format (i.e. not just copying PIM.vol).
Bonus question: how can I make it so that the contacts that are saved on my SIM get saved to my device?
