Hi all,
I just purchased a Blackjack and am looking for a way to get my Outlook
contacts onto it. I have ActiveSynch 4.5 and have been able to copy
calendar information over, but not contacts. Cingular tells me that
contacts aren't supported, but I have a hard time believing that my only
option is to physically type each contact into the Blackjack. Anyone have
any suggestions?

I bought a Blackjack a few weeks ago and the first thing I did was
Synch according to the instructions.....the CD ROM I have lists
ActiveSynch 4.2. I was able to synch the previous 3 days of e-mails
messages and all my contacts showed up also. My contcats are just e-
mals addresses and I never put in the full address and phone numbers,
but when I push the "contact" button on the Blackjack, all the e-mail
addresses are there.

When you call Cingular, you have to make sure you ask for technical
support in the data center. The first level technical help know very
little. You might also want to call Samsung...you can find HELP
numbers on their web site.

Just to check, did you make sure that in the active sync settings it is
configured to sync your contacts as well as your calendar items? Also
verify that you are storing your contacts in the default folder in desktop
outlook

Thanks!
