I have sent themes, pictures and screensavers to my phone via bluetooth. However, I do not know how to sync my phonebook on my computer with my phone's phonebook My phone is a SONY Ericsson T68i. I have two phonebooks on my computer. The first program is the "Palm Desktop", which came with my palm. However, I can't sync my palm with my phone, because my Palm does not have bluetooth on it. The second program is my Microsoft Outlook Express which is on a computer running Microsoft XP. If anyone can help, then please do so. Thank you very much!!! [addsig]

(found under services for the phone) If I had all the answers, I wouldn't have any questions. Answers to the most common questions on Esato forums

It lets you sync your Palm Handheld with Outlook instead of Palm Desktop (I think you also get a "lite" version of the same or a similar s/ware on the CD that comes with Palms). Once you've migrated your data to outlook, you dont use palm desktop anymore as ur plam handheld now directly syncs with Outlook. Then use XTndConnect to sync your phone with Outlook (Don't think it works with Outlook Express though). You might be able to get away with using the PIM Sync profile of your BT dongle (if it supports this profile, not all dongle support all profiles, I have a Billionton Class 1 and it does). I found two problems with this approach though. The T610 can take a maximum of 510 numbers (I think the T68 has the same limit). So, if your Palm/outlook contains more than that, your sync will stop upon reaching 510. Usign Xtnd connect, you can manually filter the records you want sync'd with your phone, choosing only the more important ones. Secondly, with Xtnd Connect, you can map your outlook fields to the various phone types in the phone set.
