P800 stopped syncing

by jcf. Average Reading Time: less than a minute.

Hmm – my P800 stopped syncing with Lotus Notes. It just doesn’t work anymore. I have the latest sync software, I have the latest Notes 5 version (5.0.12) and nada happens. I get the informative message, that the sync finished – but it doesn’t do anything. Of course there are no log files. There are no settings to fiddle with. Let’s see how good the SonyEricsson support is… .

First impression: Their knowledgebase is useless. First of all, it doesn’t recognize Opera (but a quick CTRL-ALT-I in Opera to make it identify as IE fixed that ;-) then the answers are not very helpful (“Yes, there is software to sync with Notes”)

Fired of an email to them – let’s see what happens….

On Notes.net Andreas Imnitzer (hi – Andreas – good to see you again after all these years) made the suggestion to use fully qualified paths to the notes databases in the sync settings. I tried that already and it didn’t help…

    Have the same problem…..did you get an answer from SonyErectus??

  2. No – I didn’t get an answer… (what do you expect ;-)

    I got it to work though – The new version of the software fixed it (after a uninstall / reinstall). But then the backup of the phone stopped working…

    In the meantime I have sold the P800, got a Tungsten T3 and a SE T610 and I’m pretty happy with my new toys
