BirdieSync

I am lost here. I followed all the directions when installing BirdieSync, and my phone connects great with my ActiveSync 4.5.

So I have my contacts on my thunderbird and my contacts in my phone.

Contacts is checked in ActiveSync.

Contacts is checked in my thunderbird BirdieSync options under Adress Book.

The phone "syncs" is what ActiveSync tells me. But nothing is transfered one way or the other in terms of my contacts on my mobile blackjack or my thunderbird contact list.

edit: I dunno, I'm just really confused. Where are the commands that would say something like
"transfer my local contacts to my mobile device" or
"transfer my mobile contacts to my local contacts"

with options for overwriting/replacing or not.

Like everything sets up really easy but where are the "action commands" to kick start this thing?

Hello,

You must check "cards" in ActiveSync option window, not "contacts" which is related to Outlook.

Then the options to "Replace" or "Combine" should automatically appear (at least under Windows XP).

Does it solve your problem ?

I don't see a check mark next to "cards"

I meant I don't see a check box next to cards, anyone know why that is so?

If you are unable to select the synchronization of cards, events, tasks and mails in ActiveSync options window, your mobile is very likely locked. Did you see a warning during installation regarding security policy ? Do you use a smartphone (smartphone are often locked) ? You could have a look to this thread which explains on how to unlock a mobile: http://birdiesync.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=61

You could also give me content of the log file BirdieSyncInstall.log located in C:\Documents and Settings\<user name>\Local Settings\Temp so I can check if your mobile is locked.

Yes I saw the warning and I clicked to permit the application to access the phone.

Here is the content of the BirdieSyncInstall.log:
Local 13/06/2007 17:03:37::0562 Unsigned CABS policy = 16
Local 13/06/2007 17:03:37::0593 Unsigned application policy = 1
Local 13/06/2007 17:03:37::0656 Unsigned prompt policy = 0
Local 13/06/2007 17:03:37::0718 Privileged application policy = 0


I'm going to check out the locked thread you pointed to.

Thanks for the help,
Travis

Your mobile is locked. There are other threads where users mentioned how they succeed in unlocking their mobile. Or you can search on the net with "application unlock" and the type of your mobile. Let me know if you have problems unlocking it.

Thank you a lot Birdy!

For my At&t Blackjack i607 I found this link here:

I just did exactly as it said and it was unlocked and I was able to check "cards" and all the rest of them also.
