How to Sync/Rediect Outlook calendar to Bold without USB connect?

Hello,

 

I just get my BB Bold (BB 9000, v4.6.0.167), on AT&T network. I'm able to use Desktop Redirector to get my company emails from Outlook. I'm also able to use Desktop Software to sync the Outlook calendars when I connect the Bold with my company computer thru the USB cable. However, without the USB cable, the new created events on Outlook calendar are not sync/redirected to my BB Bold.Could anybody tell me how to achieve it? (My company does supply Enterprise Server, I guess it could solve this problem, but I'm not willing to associate with it because it needs many managers' approval.)

 

 Thanks.

 

A bonus question is I also add my yahoo email account, is there a way to sync the Yahoo calendar items to BB?

Please use plain text.

Re: How to Sync/Rediect Outlook calendar to Bold without USB connect?

what I would do :

use Google Calendar Sync for Windows : synchronize two-ways Outlook Calendar with Google Calendar (every 15min, but requires an internet connection on a PC that runs your Outlook session).
use Google Mobile sync for BlackBerry : synchronize two-ways BlackBerry Calendar with Google Calendar (near realtime, using the mobile network).

for Yahoo, you can download the Yahoo Mobile application for Blackberry, if I recall corectly they allow to add a new calendar to your device.
Then you will have a calendar that matches Outlook, and another one that matches Yahoo.

Please note that there is also a Google Calendar application for BlackBerry.
