How to Sync Outlook 2007

How do I sync Outlook 2007 between a Windows XP Home PC and a Windows 7
Starter Netbook? I need the ability to choose which segments I want to sync
(calendar and contacts) so it doesn't try to sync the email section. Thanks!

Assuming you use popmail you would need a third party sync tool, Outlook
itself has no native method of syncing between two PC's

Hi there,

You need to use an Outlook addin to do this. Check out CodeTwo Public
Folders which enables syncing all Outlook items (including mail, contacts,
tasks, documents and many more) between a number of machines equipped with
Outlook. It's pretty easy and does not require a server machine.

Here's a link to a 30-day, fully functional trial:

Take a look at the video first:

Microsoft does a good job of making sure our options are limited when i
comes to syncing email when using Outlook. As of now I am currentl
using my laptop for email and automatically syncing the PST to m
desktop. Since I never use the desktop for email this is more like
backup than a sync.

I too was searching for solutions to this. The best solution I coul
come up with without buying any software or getting any Exchange servic
was this:

1. Switch my email server from POP/SMTP to IMAP so that bot
computers will have the same inbox.

2. Create another local PST for all old mail and have tha
automatically sync to my desktop.

A possible drawback to this is that I don’t believe that standard IMA
will sync my calendar and contacts which is a bummer. I am trying m
best to find a solution for all this syncing without an Exchange serve
but Microsoft is making it real difficult for me.
