We use Zimbra at work for email, contacts, calendaring, etc. I have long since got Zimbra syncing with Thunderbird and my phone, I love it. At the weekend I was updating the music library on my iPod Nano (2nd Gen) and noticed I had hidden the Contact and Calendar menu entries. I decided to see if I could get my iPod Contacts and Calendar synced with Zimbra, it turned out to be very simple :-)

In the examples below replace ‘username’ and ‘password’ with you Zimbra user credentials. Obviously use the URL to your Zimbra server and replace ‘/media/IPOD’ with where your Linux distribution has mounted your iPod.

wget https://username:password@your.zimbraserver.tld/zimbra/home/username/contacts.vcf -O /media/IPOD/Contacts/contacts.vcf
wget https://username:password@your.zimbraserver.tld/home/username/Calendar -O /media/IPOD/Calendars/calendar.ics
wget https://username:password@your.zimbraserver.tld/home/username/Tasks -O /media/IPOD/Calendars/tasks.ics
