Folders remaining on pda when not sync'd
Posted: Mon Sep 17, 2007 11:47 pm
Hi there, now this may be my misunderstanding of the way Birdysync should work, but I thought it was worth asking the question.
If I sync a folder to my PDA using Birdysync, it is copied across and all is well. If I no longer want that folder on my PDA, I can uncheck the box and it will no longer be sync'd. However, the folder remains on my PDA, along with all the messages.
Now if I remove the messages and the folder thats fine, but I recently did this, then later decided I wanted that folder sync'd again. When I reselected it to sync, the messages that had previously been deleted from the PDA were deleted from the PC too!
Now I would have thought the more sensible course of action when a folder is no longer being sync'd would have been to remove it at the next connection from the PDA when the box is unchecked?
Perhaps somebody could enlighten me if I am doing something wrong to cause this.
Thanks.
