Got my t68i this morning, and yeah..I'm a bit happy. Then of course, on to the problems...
Downloaded the appropriate software from the sonyericsson site, and installed it on my windows xp pro machine. The software is R3Apackage1.exe.
Of course, I could barely contain myself as I was about to sync my phone with outlook! I have been dreaming of this since 1932.
OK, as you know...in regards to this software...it is in two parts..one is from Ericsson, and the other is from a software company called extended systems
Then the horror, I could not sync via my IR port I went into the ericsson phone monitor settings and i can not add a IR port. I called extended systems and they told me that it was a problem with the ericsson software and windows xp.
I am in the middle of this mess right now, if anyone has a site or any information that will lead me in the correct direction, I would be grateful.

I think that's one of the most exciting things about the T68 - being able to sync with Outlook, I too was waiting far too long for a phone like this.
Wait till you're appointments start kicking in that you've entered on your PC ... it will even switch the phone back on (if it's switched off) to remind you of an appointment and switch into silent mode ... awesome! |

Hello,
I run Win XP Home Edition SP1 and I have pbs making my laptop and T68i communicaye through IR. I have installed the latest version of the com suite from SonyEr (XTND and Phone monitor). The phone is seen by the PC, but I cannot send files (pictures) via IR nor sync with Outlook...
Can someone help me?
I have read that some have succeeded in exchanging files via IR, but was it on the XP OS?
Thks,
Seb

mine is xp home edition.
i presume you have turned on the IR already?
sometimes the picture may not show if it is too large. it has to be reduced to somewhere around 50k.
however, i have yet to figure out why my outlook does not work. i tried to sync with windows 2000 and it works just fine. |

Has anyone managed to succesfully use the filters in the sync program. You can only filter in one direction. If you create someting on your phone it gets deleted after the second sync. |
