Guest Transform Posted November 20, 2007 Report Share Posted November 20, 2007 i am having problems with windows live. i have the today plugin on and when i go through the screens using the arrows it is trying to sync what seems to be the whole of my hotmail inbox! at least i think this whats happening. the sync loading bar is about a quarter of the way through. is there a way to make it only sync 10 emails for example?

Guest dolbe666 Posted November 20, 2007 Report Share Posted November 20, 2007 It will sync your inbox or any other folder you have set to sync, along with your contacts and personal settings. you cant set it to sync just some of your email its either the whole folder or no folder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have several folders set for different email and sync only the ones i need, i sunc inbox a temp folder i use to put emails im saving then stick them in the appropiat folder when im back at my pc. and i sync junkmail because for some reason I always find i get some of my mail sent there instead of my inbox. so thats just 3 folders then i try to keep my inbox down to 25 emails or less. so syncing only takes a couple of minutes at most but usually less than 30 seconds unless i have alot to delete and move Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Transform Posted November 20, 2007 Report Share Posted November 20, 2007 i created a new folder that i want to archive old messages into if they are older than a set date but i cant figure out how to do that ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest dolbe666 Posted November 20, 2007 Report Share Posted November 20, 2007 I dont think you can through your phone. you will have to do it through pc and outlook or online through webmail Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Transform Posted November 20, 2007 Report Share Posted November 20, 2007 yea thats what i meant. i was trying to do it through webmail but i cant seen to be able to do it. it would be ideal to make it archive everything from the inbox to another folder that is more than a week old...

Oh you mean auto archive? I think you have to set that up through outlook on your pc Edited November 20, 2007 by dolbe666 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Transform Posted November 20, 2007 Report Share Posted November 20, 2007 yea auto archive. i dont want to have to keep moving folders around everyday! would i need to setup outlook on my pc to auto archive the emails? if so would my pc need to be on all the time for this to work?

Guest Transform Posted November 20, 2007 Report Share Posted November 20, 2007 ok i have set it all up now and it syncs alot faster but... i have to go across to the sync screen with the blue arrows on the left and tap the screen to make it sync. can't it do this automatically so i recieve email email as its sent? it only alerts me of new email after i re-sync ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest dolbe666 Posted November 20, 2007 Report Share Posted November 20, 2007 go to messaging/menu/options/ then windows live then sync schedule. set it to "as items arrive" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Transform Posted November 20, 2007 Report Share Posted November 20, 2007 thats what its set at though ;) while im here, i installed the inbox extender app and accidentally did delete all on my outlook account. all the items were in the deleted items but because i could only move them back one at a time, i went on my pc and did it the quick way. now there are no emails in the inbox or deleted items on my outlook account and i dont see an option to sync that one?

Guest Transform Posted November 20, 2007 Report Share Posted November 20, 2007 it looks for changes and then just says finished when there is clearly a whole inbox full on the exchange server!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Transform Posted November 20, 2007 Report Share Posted November 20, 2007 sorry i have fixed that now. still having issues with the hotmail inbox though. is there a way of making it sync when i turn the device on? does windows live have to be running in the apps list?
