Synch same phone with different PCs

Anmeldedatum: 29.10.2023 Beiträge: 9

Hi, I am using MyPhoneExplorer since several years for synch contacts, agenda and some other things between my Samsung Note phone and Microsoft Office Outlook running under Windows 10.

No problem up to now. But I have a question related to the way I work with my PCs (plural).

I have a PC in my home and a second one in my "second home". When I go from one place to the other I do a copy of the .pst Outlook file from one PC to the other, in that way I can work with Outlook during the time I am in the "second house" as it was in my "main one".

My question is: how could it be possible to also synch the phone and the Outlook in the "second PC"?

I saw there is a folder in the c:\Users\user\AppData\Roaming named MyPhoneExplorer that has several files and a folder with a name that seems to be the reference of the Samsung phone including its model and IMEI. My question is: If I copy this folder from one PC to the other jointly with the .pst Outlook file the synch situation will be also transferred/copied and a new synch would work as if it was in the "other PC", provided I have also copied the Outlook .pst file?

Thanks and kind regards.

This should work if both PCs are set up identically, otherwise there may be problems with some different paths.

I suggest the following:
When you change your PC, all relevant data (contacts, appointments, notes) are up to date on your cell phone?!
This means that the first thing to do when switching is not to synchronize but to transfer the data from the cell phone using the blue arrow (Download entire) and then force a sync from the cell phone Outlook

Thanks for your answer.

Yes, both laptops are in fact a clone one of the other (except the processor) and your idea of "downloading" the phone information is a very good one.

Even that, I should say that, for several reasons, I always try to make changes of agenda or contacts in the Outlook instead of the phone, so, let say that my source of synch is, generally speaking, Outlook and only in seldom times I do changes or new insertions in the phone.

Thanks again, I will try your suggestion next time I change of place.

Regards.
