Can any bright spark help? Just got a Universal, installed A/Sync 4.0 onto work desktop. It won't sync saying desktop error. Checked the helpful MS article on connection problems and it said uncheck certain connections in local area connection properties.
Has anyone successfully got this to work - I'm using a PC running XP SP2 on a novell network running novell client for windows.
Yes, theres a patch to A/Sync 4 rumoured for November, but what do I do before that!

Can anbody help me on activesync problem for my WM5 machine Dopod818Pro?
After connecting with my device, program kept 'Connecting' without localizing the partnership with my company laptop? I have already turned off Sygate firewall, but it was not successful to install Partnership!!

Disable your native XP SP2 firewall too. Also, check if you have AV software that could be blocking it. Uninstall and reinstall activesycn on a drive different from the earlier one.
This should be able to sort it out.
Do you have the latest version of Activesync? (4.1)
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/downloads/activesync41.mspx
I have already installed with 4.1 version. The problem seemed to be solved. This was due to Sygate that has blocked the sychronization with PocketPC device.
But how can I synchronize with my company Notebook and my home Desktop PC with the same 818Pro? I need to sychronize all info with my home PC and only browse PDA using my company Laptop? Can I do that?
How?
Thanks!
When I plugged my JasJar into my computer via the USB cable, dirctly to the port on the back of my computer, my Windows XP system immediately detected the new device, and installed "Windows Mobile-based Device" (Network Adapter)
Upon attempting to find it with ActiveSync, it claims there is nothing connected. Upon attempting to activate ActiveSync on the JasJar itself, it comes to a window saying it is not connected, with info to connect to an exchange server.
I am using ActiveSync 4.1 (listed as 4.0 in Add/Remove Programs) downloaded from Microsoft website. I was at the time attempting to sync with Microsoft Outlook 2000. I have since connected the device to alternate USB ports, hard reset my device, upgraded to Microsoft Outlook 2003, and uninstalled + reinstalled ActiveSync 4.1 (in that order) in attempts to get my device working.
Alas, I experience faliure. However, my device charges, and if I uninstall the driver, it ceases charging. I do not have my SIM card in the phone yet, as I would like to be able to get a connection, and upgrade the ROM before I worry about making it a production system. Until then, I will be still using my old phone, who's profile I have deleted from ActiveSync, thinking it would conflict with my JasJar.
If anyone else has had this trouble at all, and figured out a way to get this to work, I would appreciate it if you could let me know. If any other information is needed, I can provide you with extensive information.
I have searched through I-Mate's supprt forum, and through xda-developers forums in the Universal sections, and looked elsewhere, and can not find any similar issues where ActiveSync will not see the device, or where it shows as a Network Adapter.
Thankyou!
yes I had same problem. Goto network connections>click on properties for local area connection Windows Mobile Device and checkmark all 3 boxes (Client for Microsoft Netwrok, File and Printer Sharing and Internet protocol.
It should connect and start working.

I did so. All three boxes were checked, so I unchecked them, saved, disconnected the JasJar, reconnected, checked the boxes, and did the same disconnect/reconnect, and soft reset the phone as well. Alas, it remains in the same state.
I do have a very strict block on TCP/IP ports on my computer, however, that is only with the Ethernet and Wireless adapters vis Windows's TCP/IP filtering, so that should not affect this at all.
Are there any specific IP address settings I should have? I do not have any firewall software installed, Windows XP Professional Service Pack 1, and I have an HP iPaq 6315 that connects and syncs fine . . .
I very much want to upgrade to my JasJar. I am going to have to take it to one of my friend's houses who has a JasJar, and see if his computer sees it. I will not be able to do so for a while, maybe a week or so, but if I can not figure it out by then, it would at least narrow down the issue to either computer or JasJar.
Thankyou for your help, if you have any more information, maybe I just need Service Pack 2 . . . need to clean my HD up a little to make room for it though.
Minor Success
I have more information. I was able to connect to a computer that has Windows XP Service Pack 2 installer. It was a success. I was able to sync. So, I am attempting to install Service Pack 2 on this machine as well, and see if that is what is troubleing the whole sequence.
OK, there is something else. I upgraded my PC to Windows XP Service Pack 2, and it still fails. However, it fails differently now. The network adapter it is listed as has a conflict. I attempted uninstall, and reinstall of the adapter, and Active Sync, and no success.
It works on the Windows XP SP2 laptop, but not on the desktop. These ssytems are very similar in the setup with the way they have been configured, so I am uncertain as to why this is happenning. It makes me jolly sad.
I have quite a complex issue that I am trying to get round.
I am currently in an office using a company supplied laptop. To the connect to the company network I have to dial up using their broadband connection and VPN (Checkpoint). When this happens I am unable to access the local network and the regular network - split tunnelling is disabled (and quite correctly).
The web filtering in the company is very restrictive and I would therefore like to circumvent this using my PPC.
I had thought the best way to approach this would be to install XP on a virtual machine (using VMWare server) and bridge the connection between the WM network device and the XP client. Unfortunately, this doesnt work as checkpoint seems too clever for it.
My next thoughts were to map the USB port (with the WM6 Hermes attached) to the VM and connect using networking direct to the XP client (hoping this wouldn't disconnect when connected to the VPN).
Unfortunately the Hermes doesn't seem to be a mappable device under vmware as it doesn't show as a USB device in VMWare Server.
Has anyone got any good ideas?
I realise this probably falls into the 'stupid' post category.....I appologise now!
Cheers

hi,
As far as i understand you are trying to connect your wm6 based device to your virtual windows environment.
there are a few things you will have to do for that:
1). You will need to have the host OS to recognize the device as a usb activesync or usb wireless modem (if using to dial to your subscriber)
2). In vmware server administrative console in virtual environment properties make sure you have the usb device added as a sync or modem.
try the above mentioned steps and see if it helps.
cheers
PRoblem short and sweet:
1 laptop running win xp
1 desktop running vista home premium
ATT 8525 running wm6 and rom ver 3.62.502.2
radio 1.54.07.00
Both machines update daily for updates.
So i use my ATT 8525 to do internet sharing, laptop connects and works great. I can even do some bit torrent downloading but it is slow
the desktop machine running vista will connect but the the internet sharing application on the phone will show a message "waiting on network" and vista will disconnect. problem happens in no apparent time frame and happens with all applications.
THis has happened on ATT 3g network and Tmobiles edge network so it has to be a vista problem. I know this is not a vista forum but hoping someone knows what the problem might be.
I've done alot of goggling and found nothing on this.
Thanks for reading. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
hm.. if i understand this correctly, you are trying to get both machines to connect to the phone at the same time? that will not happen because the internet sharing is only designed to share 1 at a time. i believe there is some router software for windows mobile that can get your connection from the phone to a broadcasted wifi. you can then connect as many machines as your device can support to the "router" ran by the phone. the tilt should be able to handle 10 clients.
another way would be to share your connection that is shared with the mobile.
mobile <-> laptop <-> desktop
connect the mobile sharing to the laptop and let the laptop share the connection with the desktop and connect the desktop with the laptop, not the phone. this will add significant latency but who cares if you want to use 3g data, its always slow. i cant think of any other way you can do this but give the second one a try first. its probably the cheapest to set up.
No, i am not trying to use both computers at the same time. i was just saying that it works on the xp machine no problem, it's the vista machine that is not working correctly.
Connecting with Vista...
Curious can you sync with the Vista machine... I suggest trying this (I have the opposite setup as you but had a similar problem... Desktop-XP Laptop-Vista)...
Under connection settings, USB to PC - there is a box that says "Enable advanced network functionality" I have to check and uncheck this when switching between the two...
For me (maybe different for you) I have to have the box checked on my laptop (Vista) but UNCHECKED for my desktop (XP)... not sure if this is tied to the OS or the hardware, but give it a shot. But this allows me to both sync and use Internet Sharing accordingly.
Hope it helps.

Well i have uncheck the ""Enable advanced network functionality" on the 8525 for my vista machine. So far I am staying connected even under heavy network load. We will just see how it goes.
Thanks KZIWarrior.

Hi All, new here
I keep getting "Data Connectivity Problem - The server failed to communicate.Try again later" error when trying to connect to my home PC through "Internet pass-through". "Internet pass-through" seems to connect fine to the PC, but then fails to connect to the internet through it, even if the Symantec Firewall is totally off.
On the other hand, no such problem when connecting through "Internet pass-through" to my work PC. The phone connects to the PC and Internet with no problem.
I guess the differences are because of a different internet connection type in work and home. Not sure what the connection type at work, but my PC at home uses a VPN dial-up of type "L2TP IPSec VPN".
Is there anything I should configure in this connection to be able to connect to the internet?
Current OS is Android 2.2.1, stock ROM, no tweaks.
*BUMP*
Anyone..?
I think you need HTC Sync installed on your computer(s) before you can use them for internet pass-through on your Desire HD.
I had this problem too on one of my laptops and my work PC but installing HTC Sync did the trick. You can get it from the HTC website.
Of course, and I do have its latest version 3.0.5511 installed on my Home PC, but still not luck.
I know it seems dumb because I doubt you use it but check your windows firewall. I have had it cause problems for me when it reactivated itself, after not being turned on in over a year, when I turned off Symantec firewall. Take a look at least.

Yes, as mentioned in my first post - "Internet pass-through" seems to connect fine to the PC, but then fails to connect to the internet through it, even if the Symantec Firewall is totally off."
I've disabled Symantec Firewall by right-clicking its task bar icon, and selecting "Disable Symantec Endpoint protection Small business Edition" -shouldn't this be enough?
[SOLVED] by Microsoft TCP/IP fix
I've downloaded the following TCP/IP fix from Microsoft, installed it on my Windows XP SP3, restarted my PC, connected my DHD, and that's it - "Internet pass-through" is now connecting successfully! with no additional configurations.
Download the fix from here:
