Hello,
I am trying to use MultiSync to synchronize my desktop Evolution (E2 on FC3) with my cellphone (Siemens M65) and organizer (iPAQ 5550). Although it runs in principle, there are numerous problems:
- The synchronization sometimes trashes one of the databases without warning (disappearing phonebook, duplicated appointments, etc.).
- The synce plugin feels a tad too experimental, ActiveSync on the organizer sometimes claims to be synchronizing an hour after MultiSync has terminated, etc.
I would be grateful for answers to a couple of related questions:
- Can the entire setup eventually work reliably ? (The existence of multiple synchronization pairs to cover the three devices, with Evolution as the "central" server.)
- Will there always be loss of data due to various devices having various limits on what can be stored, or can I use some "central" server in place of Evolution that would always preserve missing data ? (For example, the cellphone does not support comments with appointments, while Evolution does, if I edit my appointment in the cellphone, will I always loose the comment ?)
- Is there any reasonably easy way to check for what is wrong in the communication protocols and formats and submit the information so that the devices are supported better ?
Regards, Petr
