How to sync text message of Treo 750 (or other Palm Mobile device) with "Microsoft My Phone"

Hi,

 

Microsoft now provides "Microsoft My Phone" for Mobile 6 to back up data (including text message) on internet. However, it seems not working with Treo 750, because Palm Windows Mobile devices convert the text messages into a file named PalmMsgV001 under the Windows folder at root directory.

Does anyone know how to convert that file back to original Windows Mobile format so that "Microsoft My Phone" can recognize the text messages and sync it? Otherwise you lose all the text messages when you lose device or change device.

 

Thanks.

The messages received and sent using Palm's proprietary SMS application (Treo 650 up to Treo 800), can't be easily extracted or converted to any other format. You can back up the file you noted in your message so that it can be restored in the event of a hard reset, but I think that's about it.

Re: How to connect to "Microsoft My Phone" with my Palm

Hi,

 

I have a T850 and I want to use Microsoft My Phone, and the Windowsphone site is running me around in circurls. How did you make it go?
