Syncing contacts with Outlook

Is there an easy way to sync droid X with Outlook 2010?

I have gmail working seamlessly with the Droid X now (e-mail, contacts and calendar). I have downloaded google calendar sync to sync the calendar between google and Outlook. However, I cannot seem to get my contacts to sync with Outlook.

I saw several apps that seem reasonable enough, but they assume/require that I have my own domain and not a third party domain.

It just seems that I should be able to sync Outlook with either the Droid X or with gmail. Since I have gmail and Droid working nicely, just getting Outlook to work with one of them sould keep all three in sync.

Are you running 32-bit or 64-bit Outlook? Google Calendar Sync is not compatible with 64-bit Windows or 64-bit Outlook 2010.

I use MyPhoneExplorer to sync my Outlook calendar and contacts with the Droid X.

I'm not sure. How can I check to see which Outlike I am using. It was setup by my former employer.

For Outlook:

File -> Help

Look at "About Microsoft Outlook" section and it will tell you whether it's 32-bit or 64-bit.

If you're running Windows 7, you can right click on Computer, select Properties. Look under System and it'll show System type as either 32-bit or 64-bit.

Okay so Outlook is 32 bit and I am running Windows XP - there doesn't seem to be bit information for Windows XP. If you can't tell already, I am not fully computer literate. :smileyhappy:

Thanks for your help!
