Thanks for the warning about Kies and Outlook Tasks.

To be clear, I also use Outlook 2003 and MyPhoneExplorer works flawlessly. I’m running Win 8.1 and MyPhoneExplorer syncs my Outlook calendar with Google and my Android, as well as Tasks, Contacts, etc. and offers lots of selectivity options. It’s the best I’ve seen, though I am far from a techie, and it’s freeware. What could be better?

Same for MyPhoneExplorer. What I like most when syncing calendars is how it offers the option to add new appts. to either Outlook or your cellphone while also offering the option to remove any or all past appts. from either, selectively. You also have the option to sync tasks and contacts, all separately, seemingly in milliseconds. It syncs through direct USB connection, or wirelessly by either Bluetooth or network connection (that’s how I use it). I think it’s awesome. Glad you’ve found a program you like to solve our mutual problem. I’ll look at your link and consider it, but I am VERY happy as is. Thanks for the reply.

I use Outlook 2007 only for the calendar and contacts. I rely heavily on the calendar. Is there some way I can import that calendar to my Galaxy S4. I only have GMail accounts although I do have a honeypot account at hotmail. I tried making a hotmail calendar for the honeypot account and then copying my other one into that but it won’t put one folder into another (like d’uh). Since I have yearly recurring appointments (birthdays, etc.), and schedule almost my whole life on that calendar (I haven’t forgot to take any meds since I have even them on the calendar and the reminder pop-up bugs me :)) So I have tons and tons of things in this calendar and want it on my S4. I imported it into the Google calendar but the Google calendar will not let me delete anything. I have asked on the Google forums multiple times, etc. and nothing. So I just deleted the whole Google calendar because one mistake, change of appointment, etc. and I was in trouble. Can anyone help me.

Hey Star Lounger: Had the same problem last year and found the greatest sync tool ever called ‘MyPhoneExplorer’. Check it out. It is free, quick and syncs flawlessly. I was so happy with it I sent a nice donation….which is the only support they get.

I’m certain this will solve your problem perfectly.

What ‘bypass’ did you use for Win8? I’m still unable to bypass the log-in screen. Any help would be appreciated.

My problem is a little different. I receive the emails without pictures. Embedded photos in my received emails often, though not always, appear as empty boxes with a little “x”. Nothing I can do will display the pictures.

However, if I attempt to reply or forward the email, the pictures almost always emerge. So, I’ve gotten used to viewing these strange emails that way, by clicking ‘forward’, viewing the email with pictures and then cancelling rather than actually forwarding to anyone. On occasion, I’ve forwarded the emails to myself at another address with success.

This has been an ongoing problem for several months, but I’ve finally had enough. I’m running Vista Home Premium fully updated on an HP Pavilion dv7-1247cl. I think it’s Hotmail problem, but have no idea what to do??

Is there some setting that I need to fix? I’m really stumped and can find no answers when I Google the problem.
