Hi Again,,,
Not sure How Android goes in this Forum, But, Although I'm very Microsoft Driven. Well ,,, ive just retired a windows phone for a Sony Xperia ,,, Heres how I'm trying to set it up;
I'm not trying to interact with google or other stuff in any way,
I just want;
My Stuff on Outlook 2013 and,,,
My Stuff On Live.Com and,,,
My Stuff on Phone
ALL TO BE THE SAME ,,, Always, as I make changes anywhere !!!
Yes, that’s it !!! That’s all I want
Now; Things as I say arnt Tooo Bad ,,,
Back when I said I added my Live account as a EAS,,,
Well
There are I think 2 options here, and Im not sure the difference;
In Account SetUp I can Select to Add as either
Exchange ActiveSync (EAS) or as Outlook.com
Does anyone have any advise on the Differences here ,,, what results and Differences etc. remembering that I am essentially using Outlook 2013 and Using Outlook.com (live account?, purely to sync stuff to my Phones ,,,, !
Thanks for any comments suggestions ,,, abck to sorting my contacts
Not sure How Android goes in this Forum, But, Although I'm very Microsoft Driven. Well ,,, ive just retired a windows phone for a Sony Xperia ,,, Heres how I'm trying to set it up;
- I have added a google account Only to get Apps.
- Everything else about Google sync etc is OFF!
- Added My Microsoft Live Account (I think) as a EAS and syncing Contacts; Calendar; Email and Tasks
- Ive added OneNote; OneDrive and Office Mobile (whatever that is) and all seems to be Reasonably OK ,,, much better than Microsoft on a Windows phone (I'm sure they'll get there
I'm not trying to interact with google or other stuff in any way,

Yes, that’s it !!! That’s all I want
Now; Things as I say arnt Tooo Bad ,,,
- Calendar is doing Some Funny things ,, sometimes updates ok across devices ,, sometimes not ,,, seems to be dependant on whether I Edit/shift existing events (it doesn’t like that), and strange things with Custom recurring things.
- Contacts ,,, Big issues with LINKING ,,, Wish I could Stop It! ,,, I'm wondering when I export from phone as vcard (for other reasons) whether they will export as a Linked thing or as the separate contacts as I originally entered them!
- I am dreading the Day when I (for example),,, Ring my New Boss ,,, who has the Same first name as My old Boss ,,, and tell him how Crap my old Job was ,,, Hmmmm ,,, so many things can go wrong here, all because some idiot programmer thinks I need it ,,, or is it all about the new social media type stuff ,,, Not interested !
- Another issue ,,, I don’t want Skype; facbook;linkedin ,,, I don’t Want them anywhere near my Contacts info! Give me the option to interact if I wish
