Microsoft my phone sync.......

[skitty4gzus]

there has to be a way to get the data from microsoft my phone, back to the phone....... I cant seem to find out how to do that. I really dont want to have to build my contacts over from scratch, please say someone knows how to do this. Im not talking about active sync or outlook, etc.....

First - reinstall MyPhone on the phone (you may need to go to the windows marketplace to get the latest versions).

Once you have that, then you can do a manual synch and select the data that you want to send back to the phone from your online myphone account.

can you go into a lil more detail than that, i dont see where i can choose to sync from myphone.microsoft BACK to the phone...?

Just hit the "Synch" on the bottom left of the phone.

I had just done a reset of my phone and thought that the data was lost and syncing with microsoft would delete everything online as there was nothing on the phone. It is a 2 way stream, so will send everything back to your phone when you do a sync

[yatman60]

Yes. The stream is 2-way.

i mean i saw everything, but how does microsoft my phone sync know i want it to sync from microsoft back to my phone, when the 2 times before i used the sync it synced from the phone to microsoft?

Microsoft good microsoft wise. If you are reallly worried about it then go to whatever page you need, such as contacts, and print that bitch out, and if anything goes wrong, though I have used microsoft sync to recover many times, you can manually imput them in outlook then sync them to your imagio.

When you sync with My Phone, it checks to see what is different on your phone and on your My Phone account and updates accordingly. So for example, if you take a new picture with your phone, My Phone will add that picture to your account whenever it syncs. Also, in an opposite example, if you hard reset your phone, the first time you sync with My Phone it will add everything back to your phone from the previous sync. You can also control what gets backed up with the sync by selecting Menu then Sync Options.

I recently had to have my Imagio replaced when the screen went bad. All I can say is that I'm glad that I used a utility like Microsoft My Phone. I really didn't want to put all my contacts back into the phone by hand and it only took a minute or two to restore all of the data. Works well!
