Is HTC Sync available for the Thunderbolt? I am not too sure what it does, but my phone won't let me use internet pass-through because it says I don't have HTC Sync 3.0. Can someone please help me out?

I am not having any luck with HTC sync. The manual said to look for it on the pre installed SD card but its not their.
It worked!! If you guys want to use HTC Sync, download it from HTC (the link I gave above). I know it says it's for the Inspire, but the Thunderbolt will show up once you install HTCSync. Yay!
P.S. Internet Pass-through works as well.

Were you able to sync Itunes playlists using the HTC Sync you linked above? I tried doing this but it just says syncing for about 30 seconds then cancels. On my phone it does not show any history even though it looks like it attempts to sync. I am using Windows 7 64 bit.
Noob here...What exactly is HTC sync for? and do I download it then install it on my phone?
I have a similar issue. I cannot sync my outlook 2007 contacts. I don't get the option under people (in htc sync) to sync outlook.
Can a mod merge this thread with the following thread?

btw, I know you can export your contacts from Outlook as a csv and import them into GMAIL to get your contacts over, but I was trying to sync it through HTC Sync so that I can get my contacts pictures, etc transferred over also.
i downloaded htc sync, but it says my phone can't find it on my computer. i have it dl'ed and open on my pc, and have the phone connected and set to htc sync...any ideas?
Make sure you are using usb cable that came with your phone. Not all cables will work.
Then on TB / settings / Connect to pc / Default connection type / Press / make sure HTC sync is selcted.
HTC sync is downloaded to your computer, used to primaraly sync sontacts from outlook to TB. Severeval other uses once you getting into program that you can see.
It's not a very feature rich program IMHO. Gmail, and Exchange are better. I guess if you absolutely have to download from Outlook for free, then HTC Sync is one way to go. If you can shell out $40, is also an option. Okay, those are all opinions, not a direct answer to the problem, so sorry for digressing. It just seems like the HTC Sync problem has one that comes up a lot on all of their phones.

How does missing sync compare to companion link? I have companion Link but it is hit or miss if it works. Thanks

- On your computer, wait for HTC Sync to recognize your phone.
- When the Device setup screen opens, enter a name for your phone, and then click Save.

I had this problem initially. The first couple of times it said that it was syncing for a minute but nothing went over. I unplugged the phone and restarted the sync programs and then it synced the music over. Just switching to charge only didn't work. I unplugged the phone, shut down HTC sync, then reopened HTC sync and then plugged in the phone. Then it worked. I was using the WMP playlists, but I don't think that should have any differences in this case.
