    Hi,

    I have a HP iPAQ Model h4150 and a Noika E61 which I need to be able to sync, Contacts & Calender. The HP came with a copy of MS Outlook on disk. I have searched the house upside down but I can't find the disk anywhere.

    My Dell PC has MS Works fitted but the Nokia PC SUITE is not recognising the Works Calander.

    I tried to load the Free Outlook Express link in the FREE LINKS section above, but it just briought me to the Internet Explorer section.

    Did I do something wrong, or miss a link etc. Really need to get this sorted as I have just bought the new PC in order to have this sync functionality to reduce the duplication of work that is taking up so much of my time at the moment.

    Alternatively, is there some other software that will allow this sync. I will also need it as a contact database which will allow Mail merge.

    Any help will be much appreciated.

    Windows XP comes with Outlook express installed.

    If you cant find outlook express in the start menu go to control panel - add or remove programs, Press add or remove windows components on the left.. tick Outlook express and press next..

    It is a new PC running Vista Business.

    I tries opening the Windows options, but it does not have Outlook available as an option.

    I downloaded a version of Outlook off Windows site but it doesn't recognise my OS???

    Is there some other organiser available which will give me the sync facility I need?

    Regards,

    Well if you install office 2007, Outlook 2007 comes with it, but that's expensive, I don't know any free software.

    Look if you cant find outlook express installed, and cant find it to install in windows components (not a scenario i think should be possible). Then download Internet explorer 7 and it is part of that.

    try just running msimn.exe
    Vista by default hides run so hold down alt and press R then type it in. If its installed, it will load up.

    Vista comes with Windows Mail which has replaced Outlook Express but I doubt if it'll sync with your Nokia. Only Outlook will do that I reckon so you'd better look for that disk.

    Thanks guys,

    As KBVOL2 said, I have win mail with Vista & its loading. It's the Calender / database function that I need mostly to sync with phone & PDA. E mail not a priority.
