HI
Is it possiable to view a webcam image with MSN Messenger for pocket pc using Mobile 2003se.
I have looked at the tools option within the MSN Messenger software currently running om my XDA II with Mobile 2003se, & can find no option to receive a webcam call or sound?
Having searched the net on this issue, I have found mention of a program called Microsoft Portrait which appears to give this function to MSN Messenger, but although this is a microsoft product, which is currently downloadable, I am a little reluctant to try as it's dated 2004 ver 2.3.
I have also looked at upgrades for MSN Messenger for Mobile 2003se & there is a site which will upgrade the product via Activesync, but with no listing of what features are available, or version No. to check against.
(Is it actually possiable to identify version of MSN Messenger running under 2003se in some way?)
Has anyone gone through this route before who can help me?
Hey Guys,
Due to my companies outdated exchange servers I am in need of a good realtime redirector. I read that Smartner Duality Pro is very good but it doesn't seem to work with Win Mo 5.0. Anyone have any more info on this or could recommend another Real Time Redirector that is compatible with the Wizard.
Thanks,
Alex
can't u ask them to upgrade the exchange server? ... i've used smartner duality before with my XDA 2S but i haven't really used it on a WM5.0 device ... i use an O2 XDA Exec now with mine connecting to our exchange server at the office and it's cool and everything but it has a 1 to 5 second delay compared to using blackberry ...
Cheers!
I have actually looked into it, and apparently they will be upgrading sometime this year, which could mean 2008 knowing this company. I have asked to be one of the first on when it gets up and running. For now I am looking for something to bridge me till that time.

I have used the smartphone client successfully on the vario for sometime, however most recently been having some TCP connectivity issues.

Hi Jim,
Could you tell me which device client did you use. When I tried the 4.1 PPC client it won't install, just hangs up. The Smartphone one does install, however it never initializes once I try to get it going.
Thanks,
A

Like you I have been waiting with less and less patience for a Smartner WM5 client.
Yesterday I think I found the solution but it does seem a good deal more expensive than Smartner.

They do say that you get FULL support including calendars!!!!
My eval is on the way so I shall see.

Thanks Robin. Ill give it a shot as well and see how it works out.
Well I heard back from them, and they are only licensed to ditribute in Europe, so I am back on the search.
Some optimistic hopes declaims about mid february. Can't say for sure, I'll try to write here when confirmed.
I also heard back from Smartner, Seven, AlwaysOn....whatever their current name is. They will have an official Win Mo 5.0 client out by summer.
Has anyone found a workaround to this. I tried the cab file for Pocket PC and it just hangs on install. The smartphone edition one does install, but can't get it to intialize when I run it.

Smartner Duality and Win Mo 5.0
Contact Dan Metcalfe ([email protected]). In mid December he told me that they (Smartner/Seven) would be supporting WM 5.0 by January 2006 and the O2 mini S which I have. I decided I did not need it so I don't know if it has happened or not
AlexL,
I have this same issue. The work around is NOT to click the "OK" button in the warning dialog box about ActiveSync. Slide this box out of the way so you can get to the menu in the bottom right-hand corner. Under Menu, click on "Settings" -> double-click "Detail". In Detail change the Calendar Sync to "No". Finally, click Done. Then continue through the rest of the setup. Basically mail will work, but the calendar doesn't. There is something the Smartphone version doesn't like about the WM5 appointment database. In addition there are some settings that you can't get to. Like e-mail truncation sizes, etc...

Blaine
Chaps,
Having just upgraded my trusty iPAQ and V3 for a T-Mobile Vario I was mortified to find the PPC Duality 4 client for Lotus Notes won't work. Unfortunately tech support at my organisation won't distribute the smartphone client for me to try even though we have people using C500's.
I don't suppose someone who has access to the V4 Duality Pro Smartphone client could make a copy available?
This is not a request for pirate software as it is useless without the appropriate back end, it's just a frustrated techie who has got himself caught on the bleeding edge while the technology laggards in my IT department pontificate the relative merits of running 'mobile phone' software on a PDA.
Any help would be appreciated as I will look a bit of a tit using my iPAQ to access mail through the bluetooth/GPRS connection or a perfectly good WM5 PDA.
EDIT:
Well I take back what I said about the internal guys, they supplied me with the new V5 ppc client which is 2005/WM5 compatibe and it works a dream.
Regards
Dave
Windows Mobile 5 Client for Smartner Duality
Hi, we have been using the Smartner duality Professional edition, with a PC in the office pushing emails out to 5 mobile devices. I have upgraded everyone to TMobile Variois and the old 4.1 Windows 2003 client will no longer install. Anyone got access to a working Mobile 5 client? The internet only client will not install with the Push connector.
Many thanks

Hi all. I've recently downloaded and installed both the Notebook and PocketPC version of MS Reader, I signed in with my Passport activated the Notebook version but when I tried to activate my Pocket PC I got this error message [connected to the notebook via USB and synced with AS4.1 as a partner]:
You have an older version of Pocket PC which does not support Activation. Activation requires Pocket PC 2002 or later.

I have a dopod 838 AKU2.0 which is a WM5 device so this struck me as very odd. Have sent an email to MS but haven't received any help yet so I was wondering if anyone else has had this experience and if they know of a workaround. Thanks in advanced.
When I prepared my XDA mini S for vacation, I had the same problem. No activation possible.
Anyone made the same experience?

Damn...with issues like this no wonder people just download and install cracked version of MS Applications.
@bnycastro
You tried the best that you can....if I were you, just search for a [email protected] or [email protected] and run the program.
This is MS's fault, so screw them
actually ms reader is a freeware application. activation is done to ensure that the ebooks that you purchased are tied to your device [or passport account]
Get another reader
The support you get from Microsoft is worth the money you pay for MS Reader - i.e. nothing. It is shocking even for freeware. They write this stuff to tie you in to MS stuff they charge for which is OK, except for when the support is rubbish.
Get another free reader that really works - Try Mobipocket it even has an RSS feeder on the desktop.
I had the same problem. Apparently is quite common and it has to do with a certain oeminfo.xml file you should have on your \windows dir.
Check out this PocketPc Junkies forum:

Some of the participants are MS Reader developers and will help you. That's how I solved my problem.

Thanks for the tip! Have resolved the issue with the help of a MS Reader Team Member in PPCThoughts forums. I wonder why MS did not include activation built in; if most Ebook sellers require it anyway :roll: what is the extra process for?

It worked for me...
Hi There,
I am the proud new owner of a T Mobile Mda Vario II. So far I love it, I have gotten my email set up etc. The only problem I have is that I am a avid user of Microsoft Money 2005. Now on my PC I am running Windows Vista Home Basic edition. So when I try to install a program to my Vario which should allow me to keep track of my Microsoft Money accounts the installation tells me I have no Microsoft Money installed on my PC to Synch with. I am using the lastest release of Synch centre etc. So I don't know what the answer is. I was hoping some of you nice people on here might be able to help me out
how about some more info like what app you are trying to install what version of WMDC are you running the more info the better
It's microsoft money for the pocket pc. It ran perfectly when I had windows xp on my main pc with my other pocket pc. Since having windows home basic the program won't find the main program on the pc therefore I cannot synch my vario with the pc.
@quietgirl: WMDC = Windows Mobile Device Center. Try looking into that and re-read austinsnyc's response.

Checkout the MS uk money newsgroup....
http://www.microsoft.com/communitie...677-5c10-45c7-bfdb-9b2b021c4979&lang=en&cr=US
Many people have reported issues with Money for PocketPC on WM5 devices. MS only support it on Wm2003 devices, but some users say they have it working fine on WM5. Hopefully someone in that newsgroup can help you.
Thanks for the advice. just thought I would post back what i've tried. none of the ppc programs will synch properly so I tried a trial version of sbf finance I think its called. after synching it quadrupled every entry in my money program on the pc. I have opted not to bother now. but just wanted to say thanks for the advice.
Hey, Just wondering if there is a phone suite for the trinity you like the Nokia
so i can send sms's from my phone when it is connected to my laptop??
Cheers all
i don think there would be a phone suite..the windows mobile phone suite would be ActiveSync or Windows Mobile Center(Vista)..you can try this though..its called SPStudio and it allows you to transfer SMS..it worked for my dopod 585 but i havent tried on my D810..but it should work as well.
Sorry..just noticed you meant sendin sms thru phone not transfer..
Pocket Controller and Jeyo Mobile Extender (use with Outlook).
