Synchronisation Problems i-mate Untilmate 8502
Ultimate syncs well with home PC but will not sync with work PC.
Main reason for wanting to sync is to keep outlook diary up to date.
If I had known it would only talk to one PC I would have selected work one because the majority of diary entries are made there.
Currently entering appointment into Outlook and then into phone on my desk.
Can it update automatically without being connected e.g. through the wireless network at work?

Yes you can update through wireless network .
Most work PC's I've worked with need an administrator's password.
If you're using SDHC.777.cab, I find that after some time using it the SDHC will appear full, empty or scrambled, requiring a soft reset to fix.
After putting in the USB and seeing it's full, check on the handset using File Manager or Settings/Memory - they probably say it's full too. Just do a soft reset and it should all come back to normal. Very annoying.

You can set it to bond with the work pc, but you may need the assistance of your company tech support incase a administrator password etc are required to install the device. Then just set up outlook etc again as normally.
Because your trying to connect it to a work PC, they probably have some kind of block on additional external hardware. So, I don't think it's possible for you to do any syncing with it at work. Hope I could help :)
