Hello all
Will be setting up my and my wife's iPhone 4 later this week and have a few questions.
First the details;
We both currently use BBs so a small learning curve.
We both will need Exchange work e-mail but not work calender or contacts (unless I can get GAL access...)
We currently both also have a gmail account and sync our BBs contacts with gmail.
We also both use and sync google calenders with those accounts and view each others calenders on our own.
We both have a few other email accounts with our internet provider.
My understanding is that I need to setup work exchange accounts using the obvious "exchange" option, but only select mail to sync, not cal or contacts.
Set up gmail using the "exchange" option as well (not the more logical gmail option) and set it to sync mail, contacts, and calender.
Set up the ISP emails using the "other" option.
What about the iTunes settings? If I used "exchange" for gmail contacts and calender, do I, can I, or should I still check the box to sync gmail contacts and cal in iTunes? It would be nice to have those gmail contacts and calender sync with each of our MacBooks contacts and cal as well.
On the BBs we use a unified inbox for all our accounts, glad we can keep doing that. When deleting mail on the BB we have the option set to ask "Delete on handheld or Mailbox and handheld" can we have this setting/prompt on the iPhone?
Do I have it right? Anything else I should be aware of?
Thanks, Luke
