Help! transfer Phonebook from T68i to P800

4 replies · 2,044 views · Started 06 March 2003

My minds going coo coo over this man. Any suggetsion?
When I send it Via IR the t68i just keeps on saying sending then suddenly stops. When I send it via bluetooth the P800 accepts then nothing happens. I am using the "send all" function onthe phonebook->advance options.

If you also have any idea how I can migrate my data on the ClieNR70V(palm os) to the P800.

Hope someone can respond soon...

Try syncing with outlook on the t68, then doing the same on the p800?

I did that above but then also tested it with ir and it worked a treat.

Make sure if you do manage to sync it with Outlook that there are no invalid contacts that may be screwing the other methods up.

Interestingly, send all via ir will even send the pictures associated with your contacts 😊

I did this and it worked fine. Even transferred my contact photos and everything! Just make sure that your device IR ports are alligned and that you leave plenty of time (it's very slow!). Otherwise you could try sending all the contacts to your PC, then send the vcard file to your P800.

Hmmm maybe there's something wrong with my p800 because everytime I align them like half an inch away and choose send all via IR the t68i cannot find a device anymore and so does bluetooth.. nada! 😞 Should I return this right away? In the control panel of the P800->connections->IR is on and bluetooth is on. What gives?

I'm not sure, but I think this might be the solution (at least when send over Bluetooth)

I think the Phonebook items are in "Messages" --> Beamed. I think the files are there! Just click on them and "install" them.
