I am trying to find out the best way to sync my address book from my motorola razr v8, and eventually my new nexus one phone, to Evolution in fedora 12. I don't use bluetooth, just a simple usb connection.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have had no problem setting up Evolution to send/recieve email from MSN but it doesnt not sycronize the calander or contacts which I find a must (as I use the calendar and contact info for all my business apointments/ contacts). Is there a way to setup Evolution to sycronize with MSN all contact y calendar info? subject as on the internet I only seem to find references to google (as well as in synaptic Package manager).
View 1 Replies View RelatedAll I want to do is transfer my pictures from my Motorola V3 RAZR to the Ubuntu 10.04 PC. Searching, I installed KMobileTools 0.4.3.3 from the "Ubuntu Software Center" as a Ubuntu 10.04 replacement for the Windows "Motorola Phone Tools". But when I attach my fully charged Motorola RAZR V3 to the Ubuntu 10.04 PC with a USB cable, I can't transfer my pictures from the phone to the PC using KMobileTools.
In fact, there doesn't even appear to be a MENU for transferring pictures from the Motorola RAZR V3 to the Ubuntu 10.04 PC in the KMobileTools application. What would you suggest for transferring pictures from the Motorola RAZR to the Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid PC?
I can't get my Motorola Xoom to 'mount' on Ubuntu 10.10
The Motorola Xoom has a USB connection that uses MTP (Media Transfer Protocol) and not MSC (Mass Storage Class). This allows file-level access as opposed to the whole media block. My Droid X mounts fine but it uses MSC.
I have loaded the MTP tools:sudo apt-get install mtp-toolsand I have installed both Qlix and gPodder since these both use MTP.
The Xoom remains unrecognized. So instead of file-level access I have NO-level access.
Recently I acquired a Motorola Xoom very satisfied with it. However I tried to connect my Xoom by USB, and sure enough it would not mount. So, I did some research and came across this web site [URL] Followed all the steps, and finally saw that my Xoom was mounted on my desktop. However it would not open, and it outputs the following message; Could not display "/media/xoom". The file is of an unknown type

I am having a problem with my el-cheap-o Net 10 phone. There is not time left on the phone but I can still use it as a camera. Now I want to download the pictures to my laptop.

I am running Debian 6.0.1a on a Gateway SX-2841 (64-bit) and I would like to set up the Motorola SBV5220 modem using USB because the Ethernet port is used for a LAN (not on Internet). I am trying to follow the Cable Modem HOWTO. /var/log/messages lists CONFIG_USB_NET_CDCETHER=m, not exactly as shown in the HOWTO. lsmod does not list anything like either CDCEther or usbnet. I am hesitant to try running modprobe until somebody says this is the right thing to do.

View 5 Replies View RelatedThe Motorola mounts in 10.04 but I can't tell the size of the available disc space so don't know if it's some internal memory or the 16 GB microSD card. It shows some files and a setup.exe so I suspect it's not the card and don't want to screw anything up.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have an old Motorola RAZR that is starting to give up the ghost. I want to upload the phonebook to my computer as easily as possible, in a form that it could then be downloaded to another phone. I have looked at moto4lin and kmobiletools - I didn't actually try them, because the writeups I found seemed always to have some problems, and nothing seemed very Fedora friendly.
If I have to go with those tools, I will, but I don't want to sync the phonebook with what is on my computer or anything, I just want to copy the data somewhere temporarily and then copy it back to another phone. And no, there is too much for the SIM card. I suppose I could do it with the SIM card in several iterations, but that seems awfully kludgy. Is there a mount point or something where I can find the thing after I plug it into a USB port on my computer? I don't have a bluetooth device for my computer.
When I connect my Motorola Xoom Tablet (Android 3.0) to my PC (Fedora 15) via Mini-USB cable, the Fedora system doesn't recognize the tablet as a external drive.Connecting my phone Nexus S (Android 2.3) the same way, it will be recognized and mounted.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI recently got a Xoom and have been loving it. However, I can't get USB file transfer to work. Apparently the devices is connected by mtp and I've got mtp-tools to use from the command line, but they're not able to mount the device or connect to it in any other way, although they recognize it. I've even fiddled around a bit in /etc/udev/rules.d according to the instructions in this thread: [URL]
Didn't do a thing, sadly, although I wasn't able to get gnomad to work - it kept on claiming it was missing dependencies, which it wasn't, as far as I could tell. I've got Ubuntu running on another computer, though, and installed gnomad on that. Also no dice, although I hadn't changed /etc/udev/rules.d on that computer.
I recently bought a couple of Gateway SX-2841 boxes, Intel EM64T CPUs, lots of memory, big HDs. One has Ubuntu 10.10 Gnome and one has Debian 6.0.1a. So far, so good. I'm still working on USB hookup to a Motorola modem, but the LAN works fine. The machines did have problems running Firefox with the "pre-installed" Win7 Home edition OS. But then, I never intended to keep the MS system, anyway.

View 2 Replies View RelatedRight now I am struggling to fix my Motorola RAZR V3 phone (it is just one year old). The problem is that the internal speakers (the regular ones, used to listen to the caller) are apparently set to a quite low volume and I can not hear almost anything. Researching similar cases I learned about the existence of several software tools designed to hack the phone and raise the volume on the aforementioned speakers; unfortunately those tools are Windows-only.
I also stumbled into a Linux program (moto4linux) which apparently would allow me to do the same thing, unfortunately I've been unable to connect to my phone using that program. Before I go any further in my attempts to force moto4linux to connect to my phone, could anyone please confirm that such program is actually able to hack the phone's speakers the way I want to? Or is it merely for file & contacts synchronizing?

I wanted to know, I it is possible to synchronize two systems. I�ve got one System on an ext. hard- drive, and one on a desktop computer. An example for better understanding:If I update on the ext. HD and I connect the ext. HD to the desktop, the desktop should be updated to. Or, when I create a new user on the desktop, and I connect the ext. hd, the user should get created to.Is this possible?

Naturally, since it runs Linux, it's unable to synchronize with other Linux devices. It's one of those wacky universal constants you can't seem to understand.
I've tried using SyncEvolution, which supports funambol, but it does not work. It keeps complaining about a failed authentication or whatnot.
When I right click a folder and select synchronize it does not sync. It continues to say synchronize on one. When I selected my music folder back in December it worked, but now it doesn't.

Due to recent releases of Ubuntu/Kubuntu/Mint/Mint KDE, I'm pretty near ready to take the plunge full time into Linux on my main desktop machine. Just one thing stopping me though at the moment... folder synchronization.
I have the following setup:
1) Desktop machine running Mint KDE or Gnome hard wired to a Netgear DG834GT router.
2) Archived files stored on a dedicated partition mounted as /home/lucas/archive.
3) Laptop running Windows 7 also hard wired to the router.
4) Shared folder on the Windows 7 laptop called "Archive" on a dedicated "Data" partition.
What I would like to do is synchronize the folder specified in 2 above to the shared folder specified in 4 above.
In Windows I use SyncBackPro to synchronize folders. Is there anything similar in Linux?
