General synchronization instructions
Consult the client or device documentation on how to setup a synchronization profile. You need the following values to setup a synchronization profile:
SyncML Server Version: 1.1
SyncML server URL: http://<Enter the URL for your Group-Office>/sync.php (Look it up at Configuration -> Synchronization in your Group-Office)
Port: 80
Username: Your Group-Office username
Password: Your Group-Office password
Datastores
Mostly the datastores are already set correctly by default. Below are the different settings for each client.
| Database | Symbian (Nokia / Sony-Ericsson) | Funambol | Synthesis | Nexthaus | Funambol Mozilla |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Calendar | calendar | scal | events | event | event |
| Tasks | none, tasks sync with calendar | stask | tasks | tasks | not supported |
| Contacts | contacts | scard | card | contacts | contacts |
iPhone SyncML client
Apple restricts it's API for third party developers. Therefore it's only possible to sync with the Apple contacts application. However, Synthesis developed it's own calendar and tasks application for the iPhone so that synchronization is possible.
