Thanks:
But having followed all the steps, when I click on “Synchronise”, the system appears to make a connection to the Google server, but I then get a message that reads: “Unable to open database”.
Please help!
George.
I am too not sure why this is happening, I found a possible answer for this problem, in Google Mobile forums, may be you can give this a try.

Put the REMOTE DATABASE as ‘contacts’..it will work.It works for me
I tried the sync on E63. it was working just fine until i started getting the error “Invalid Host Address” . Thy sync just begins to process and immdly i get the above error message. This was the same setting that worked earlier. What could be the problem ?
Try this one http://tezro.livejournal.com/283434.html
“The solution was found strangely — I tried to sync over GPRS connection and, voila, everything synced. Looking through the router setup I found that there was no default gateway for devices connected over Wi-Fi and IP assigned using DHCP (all the home devices use static addresses) so that Nokia E65 was not getting the gateway I suppose to get to the Google’s side.”
Awesome! Mine sync-ed after I was connected with GPRS.
Thanks, it is working just fine now
hi suprabhat, i am facing the same problem but have not been able to find a solution yet. need help!
Hi ! Thanks for the sharing, however I got a problem. I am using E63 as well, but cant see the “Database in phone” field. The phone is using the latest firmare 500.21.010, could you please shed a light for me? thanks!
Hi sorry, my phone (Nokia E63-2) firmware version is 501.21.001, so I am unable to check this problem.
Thank you, I think the difference is caused by firmware and Region code
thanks
This works but only syncs 50 of my 400 contacts. Can someone help me out here? thanks!
Press Sync again for several times in order to sync all contacts~ Each time it syncs 50 contacts
Yeah i figured it loaded more the second time and subsequent times i did it. thanks! this method really saved me a lot of trouble!
it works but while syning it automatically get disconnected and shows “Systemt error”
First, make sure the setting is correct. Second, how many contacts do you have? I am not sure if there are a lot of contacts, error may occur.
all done but it says server not responding
it says server not responding

I had an error message in my first try using WiFi, but using 3G it worked fine. Thank you!
Hi all, If u r getting “invalid Host Address” error, which is not been solved even after try other connections like gprs, wifi or any, and even not worked after changing “contacts” to “Contacts” and than again to “contacts”, than u can try this, move all ur contacts either to PC Suite or to memory card, than delete all and than sync with gmail, and than bring back ur contacts from backup. It worked for me….
I didn’t find the option “Database in phone” to put “C:Contacts.cdb”
Can you help?
Hi, I can’t connect to the server when select “Synchronize”. My phone is connected to the Internet by Wifi. Has anyone have the same problem?

Thanks a dozen tons !! life become easy with your solution. It worked like a charm.
( 50 contacts per sync) (option not available in phone but i guess its optional as without it also it worked “Database in phone” to put “C:Contacts.cdb” )
1) I don’t get the local database field; 2) I am getting “invalid username or password” error.
My firmware is 510.21.010 Nokia E63-1 (I’m from India).
