anyone has the same problem?

I recently had a problem syncing to outlook that turned out to be corrupted calendar files.  Mikew had a similar problem and believed it was due to KO/Pi DTM sync corrupting the files.  I managed to fix the sync by removing the SLDATE files and restarting calendar to create new ones, then resyncing with outlook and KO/Pi.

I'm not really sure what the problem is and I dont understand the format of the DTM file to find the bug either.

Has anyone else seen this problem?  I'm using ver 1.7.7

Since so many improvements have been made to the KDE PIM/Pi, I would really suggest upgrading to the current 1.9.3a version first to see if this solves your situation.

Wow, what a whirlwind!  I just browsed through this whole thread and am feeling a bit dizzy from the ride.

I'm puzzled, though.  Why does the pi-sync.net page have such outdated versions of the things at http://sourceforge.net/projects/kdepimpi/?  Also, which of the programs for download at the latter location is actually the KO/pi that was being developed by zautrix throughout this thread?  The only one actually named KO/pi is for i386 arch.  I'm confused.

Anyway, if this program is as cool as it sounds, i'm excited to try it out.  Where does one find the FAQ that was mentioned in this thread?  It seems things are a bit hard to find.

I assume that the addressbook side of things was whipped into working shape since this thread died?

Thanks

Edit:  I see that the "KO/pi KA/pi official announcements thread" is floating around, and seems to be where the party's at these days.  Could we maybe pin that one?

KDE/PIM 1.9.2 = KA/Pi (KAddressbook) + KO/Pi + OM/Pi (Opiemail).

Edit2:  Answering my confusions:

With integrated access from KO/Pi and KA/Pi to OM/Pi and with access from KO/Pi to KA/Pi addresses.
KO/Pi 1.9.2 is KO/PI 1.7.5 with some enhancements/bugfixes.

Wow, those two devs are amazing.

FAQ in in the application, once installed on the Zaurus.  Clicke Menu -> Help -> FAQ

When KO/Pi added KA/Pi and became KDE PIM/Pi it moved from pi-sync.net to sourceforge.

Clear as mud now?  

I use KO & KA/Pi for all my PIM needs every day, all day, day in, day out.  It will only get better!

[nianderson]

i cant wait until ka/pi is on pdaxrom and kde 3.3 is released kitchensync will be great.

I like slocaus use KO/Pi & KA/Pi for all my diary & address book requirements & sync KO/Pi with Outlook via the Sharp app.

Has anyone managed to sync KA/Pi with Outllook address book directly or via Sharp app., tried once but failed, I have re-entered about 50 entries but want to avoid manually entering the other 800 entries.

Ugh, Outlook (making sign of the cross at arms length).  

Ulf stated that he is working on sync.  I use linux with KOrg and KAB under FluxBox actually, and sync KO/Pi directly.  Using Unison to share addressbook between the Zaurus and PC myself.  I think we have to be a bit more patient for KA/Pi sync in any form.

[bluedevils]

Yo slocaus,

I've got a gentoo box (actually 2 gentoo and 1 slackware) and I use kontact within fluxbox.  what verbage do you use to unison.  I tried it once and there were no errors, but I didn't notice any changes.

Hi,

you can use Windows version of KA/Pi to import all contact data from Outlook.
After that you can copy the file to your Zaurus.

How to do that, you can read here:

I'm puzzled, though.  Why does the pi-sync.net page have such outdated versions of the things at http://sourceforge.net/projects/kdepimpi/?

Because I was developing the programs and not updating the internet site...

  Also, which of the programs for download at the latter location is actually the KO/pi that was being developed by zautrix throughout this thread?  The only one actually named KO/pi is for i386 arch.  I'm confused.

I agree that the site was confusing.

I have redesigned www.pi-sync.net a bit and updated with the latest info.

I have rearranged the project names at sourceforge as well.

Hope now it is no more confusing ...

You can have a look at the new site at

Thanks for that zautrix, it may work, although Outlook gets it's data from an Exchange server, so I may have to export the file at work & import into my home PC.

I am required to use Outlook at work as my email front end from Exchange.   Is there a possibility that there will be a way to sync directly from Outlook to KDE-Pim/Pi?

No, syncing with Outlook is not implemented yet.

It will be available later this year.

Maybe in some months.
