For the option Personal information management you need to scroll down inside the settings menu of the email client. It could be that is just there after the recent firmware upgrade Nokia has put out.

I have tried all the steps without any error message or problem.

 

except, 

 

I still don't seem to have synced my calendar with Google Calendar..................

Re: E75 messaging FAIL

Thank you so much snajaymehta. Your steps did the trick. I had gone mad trying to get it to work. I've put up the steps on my blog. I'm putting the link here.

 

Don't worry I have acknowledged it as your idea :smileyhappy:

 

Thanks a lot again!

Re: E75 messaging FAIL

Glad that this help you out.

 

I basically figured all this out after several months of playing with the service and information on the Beta Blog as well as the S60 forums.

 

I'm really at a loss while Nokia has made it so difficult to set the server/port configuration.

I have the same problem Philip has

Thanks Jeremiah. Just what we need to get debugging this thing. For the calendar sync instructions:

 

8.

I don't get step 8 on my E75

 

10.

You have to select Corporate before MFE in step 10

 

14-18.

Steps 14-18 are all fields on the same screen for me with no pressing of "OK"s

 

Then I'm asked to select "email only", "email and data" or "Help to select". I selected the second option.

 

Then I'm asked how I'd like to synchronise "merge", "replace" or "Help to select". I selected the second option.

 

Then I'm told "Email setup complete" and hit OK.

 

21.

There is no such option "Personal information management". Options presented are "Global settings", "Mailbox", "What to sync" and "When to sync". I picked the third of these but was only given the option to sync email, and not calendar.

 

No idea where to go from here. Regards, Philip.

Re: E75 messaging FAIL

Went to Carphone Warehouse this weekend to say the phone is not fit for purpose. They could only agree, looking at this thread, but their response so far has been to offer me the E71. Will keep you posted.

Re: E75 messaging FAIL

I have just received the E75 today from Nokia for my work handset, like many people on here I already had a Nokia Messaging account which I was using on with an E63 (had been given this to try to make up my mind which I wanted) 

 

Have just installed my hotmail account on the handset and sent myself a dummy email and at the same time have recieved an email which came up perfectly fine on my MacBook but has still to come up 20 mins later. I am for some reason getting Hotmail(2) when on the E63 I was running 3 Hotmail accounts with no problems with the name of each account underneath the mail logo for each account.

 

I am seriously not lookinf forward to having to go into my boss very sheepishly tomorrow and telling my boss that he has bascially wasted £379.99.

 

Well done Nokia, not!!!

Re: E75 messaging FAIL

Why on earth did Nokia release such a flaky product as the e75? The whole point of this phone is that it meant to be email friendly. In fact, after finally setting up my email accounts, I found that they either stopped working days later or actually disappered offf my screen. I then rebooted and the accounts reappeared ... only to stop working a few days later. Then they restarted, then they stopped. Sigh.

 

The e75 is sloppy technology -- poor software combined with clumsy hardware.

 

Now, where did I put my receipt so I can demand my money back? Next stop - the Blackberry or iPhone.

Re: E75 messaging FAIL

Well, I will be the last to claim Nokia made things easy. It took me some time, and help from people from this forum, and then I had the phone running the way I wanted it and it did the things I wanted in a way I wanted it to do.

So, when I read all the complaints above, my thoughts are that some of the complaints may not completely be caused by the phone, it's software or Nokia. Could it be that the phone and it's users do not always think in the same way, to put in politely?

Because my phone is working. It did before the firmware upgrade, and it's still working after the firmware upgrade.

I even have the feeling that after the firmware upgrade the battery needs recharging less often.

 

Correct me if I am wrong with my assumption.

Re: E75 messaging FAIL

Sorry - but one post from a Nokia apologist doesn't fix the appalling issues with the e75.

 

It would be preferable if Nokia admitted its mistakes and fixed the email issues it created with releasing the e75 too early. This is a BETA phone with BETA software.

Re: E75 messaging FAIL

wel, wel...i don't even know where to begin with our comment wyko. Really dude. let me try though.

you came to this thread with big smile (i presume) on your face to claim that you are last of the satisfied Mohicans. And them you go on about how it took you some time to get things working with help of forum.

I don't know what sort of hard life you are leaving, but i wouldn't call it "Nokia made it easy" when you still have to take "some time" and help of the people on the forum to make phone, high end phone i might add, to work properly.

 

I didn't even knew about existence of this forum untill i bought myself E75, and i'm using mobile phones since 1999. Eight (8) different of them and six (6) of them Nokia.

 

When i buy phone, expensive phone, that is targeted for very specific market as Eseries are, i do expect it to work as people from this target groep woul expect to.

 

If i want to hang out on forums to get my phone to function properly with help of others, who went through hardship of discovering workarounds, i will get myself Openmoko phone.

And you know what, i did. Eight month ago i bought Openmoko phone (Freerunner) and i knew when i was buying it that i would be spending a lot of time on forums and by myself trying to hack the phone.

But when i went to the local phone dealer week ago to purchase E75, i was expecting it to work - no questions asked (as my E71 did by the way, kudos to Nokia on that one).

??it's not the phone, it's software or Nokia? It's not the phone itself, we just don't like Nokia and software that comes with it, otherwise it is a great phone.

I really hope you cought draft of sarcasme in above statment.

Phone, E75 in this case, is a product of Nokia. This product consists of:

* Hardware (what you refer to as "phone")

* Software (S60)

* services (relevant in this case, but not always) 

This product is manufactured by company - Nokia (or at least it supervised manufacturing of this product).

So how you get to separate E75 phone into three(3) separate categories is beyond me.

 The day that phones (or any other machine for that matter) will start think.....well, i don't know if you have seen any film out of Terminator series - nice one there?
Phone suppose to execute commands that you - user input in it. It suppose to serve it's perpouse. Purpouse of E75 is to be THE email solution provided to us - users from giant manufacturer. Is it?
What ways E75 is "thinking" i don't know, what i know is that this apparatus comes with combination of software and hardware that makes it slow, and sluggish, and deffinately not THE email solution. Knowing that there is such a thing as Blackberry it is just plain insolt to call E75 email solution.

So please inlighten us what E75 thinking about, cause we clearly tinking in different dirrections.

Kudos to you. You got it working.

Now teach me how can i on my email solution to be E75 phone that has it's own ways of thinnking can do one of the following (which are very well possible on email soutions of other brands i might add):

* Be able to search through all messages in my IMAP inbox and not just 1 month back

* Be able to save my email on SD card

* View mail in threaded mode

* set up filters

* Set up automatic CC and BCC

* Set up dedicated folder for "sent", "trash" etc.. fro IMAP mail acconts

Educate me and rest of people here how your phone, that has nothing to do with Nokia or software that is running on it, possible made happy.

Could you please elaborate little more? Cause you seem to know more then rest of us.

So, please, do share.

 

And just out of curiosity - why not refer to you as dude? it seems like you got insulted by it, i wonder why.

Are our cultures that different?

Re: E75 messaging FAIL

Hey, I think I get your drift redux. The phone is, indeed, the whole package. The combination of hardware and OS and application software.

 

My news... just had confirmation from O2 that they accept this forum is proof that 1. Nokia would have answered my questions about the E75's compatability with Google's services affirmatively at the Mobile World Congress and in their Regent Street store on the basis that that's the position they adopt upfront on this thread; and 2. that the phone can't actually do it.

 

So they have promised to authorise mobiles.co.uk to transfer my contract / tarif to an iPhone 3GS when I get mobiles.co.uk to call them.  And then, having just spoken to mobiles.co.uk, they accept that they are going to take the E75 back as not fit for purpose and send me out the iPhone.

 

A sad day, after six years as a faithful Nokia customer. Even sadder that I'm having to move from an open OS, Symbian, to a proprietary OS from Apple. Hopefully, by the time my contract with the iPhone has expired, there will be some awesome phones from HTC and, yes, Nokia, that wield either Android or Symbian OSes beautifully.

 

On that note, I'm outa here. Good luck. Wonder when the mainstream press or top gadget blogs will get wind of this?
