Thanks for your quick response!I was speaking about the ActiveSync icon on the
main window. I suppose this syncs the device.Why I ask this is to have a good
entry point in the code and then trace what methods are called. I already
looked quickly in sync-engine, synce-kpm and libopensync-plugin-python. It
seems indeed that sync-engine does not explicitly says what should be synced.I
just looked into the settings of my smart phone and there is no place I can
configure what directoy should be synchronised. I find this pretty strange as
HTC is known for its business smart phones while ActiveSync does not work
correctly.Maybe this is a shortcoming from opensync(maybe a non-implemented
feature).I will also mail my question to there mailing list.Greetings!>Hi,>>In
