Requirements:
- Windows XP or 2000
- GroupWise 6 or higher
- iPod enabled for disk use
Getting Started:
- First, make sure your iPod is enabled for disk use. If it is Mac formatted, you will also need Xplay or a similar program to allow Windows to see your iPod as a disk drive.
- Next, install GWMyPod by running setup.exe.
- Plug your iPod in to a USB port and start GWMyPod: Start > All Programs > GWMyPod, providing your GroupWise password if prompted to do so.
- GWMyPod should see your iPod as in the figure below:
Note: If GWMyPod does not see your iPod, verify that it is enabled for disk use and that your iPod is visible in My Computer.
Setting Preferences:
To set your sync preferences, go to Options > View or double-click in the body of the form.
Here you can select what you would like synchronized, choose an Address Book to sync, and select a Folder for transferring Email and/or Posted Note items.
Note: It's probably not a good idea to transfer your entire inbox.
Once you have set your preferences, click Sync. After synchronization has completed, you can eject your iPod by going to File > Eject iPod or Eject iPod and Exit .
Fun Facts
- GWMyPod keeps individual preferences, so multiple users can sync their iPods on the same machine.
- GWMyPod uses xml/xsl to transform GroupWise data, so you can customize what you see on your iPod provided it stays in spec for .ics and .vcf files.
