IPhone Syncy Dinky

I have had an IPhone for a couple of months now. True to my nature, I dove in and got the basics set up quickly, and did not set up the advanced features.

Since I was laid off from Ultradent, I could not sync to their exchange server anymore. I was trying to get it to sync with my .me account, but it wouldn't work. I finally figured it out that when I configured the .me account on the iphone, I did not set up the contacts and the calendar! When I deleted and reconfigured the account, it came up with the calendar!

I also wanted my tasks in outlook to sync up to my iphone. After researching, I found a blog entry that explained how to do this on the cheap. Here is the link with the instructions: http://danielcurran.com/freeware/how-to-sync-outlook-tasks-with-your-iphone-for-free/

After setting up Toodledo on my phone, it worked like a charm! So, now I have the calendar, tasks, and outlook email playing well with Mobileme and the iphone!
