the new activesync is making me pull my hair out. i am running outlook 2003 on my XP machine. I managed to sync 8 of the devices in our office but fr some odd reason i can't get it to work on 1 machine. the detect and repair worked for all the other machines except this one.
Any ideas ????
try 4.1?
I have tried that. Windows CE inbox transfer doesnt seem to be installed on that machine. that is the only difference between the machines that work and the one that is making me pull my hair out

Sync problems in Vista
The reason for your problem is that the RTM version of Vista don't have Windows Mobile Device Center included because it was still in beta. To get the latest beta available download it from: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/devicecenter.mspx
I have no problem to sync my P3600 on Vista with the beta software.

In addition to sync/exchange files, which worked even without the above mentioned software, as it will see the Trinity as just another USB memory (drive letter) device, you'll need this beta software to install/add any non-cab file based programs on the Trinity.

So you guys can Sync files and outlook in Vista?
I have the Mobile Device Centre Beta 3 installed for use with my 6828 and all I get is Sync my media files.
Anyone else experienced problems with not being able to sync outlook data or being able to install programs?
Yes, I had a lot of problems getting the partnership with P3600 working. I was trying to pair it via Bluetooth, but that didn't work either. I then tried installing some Toshiba bluetooth drivers for my Dell TrueMobile BT, that installation failed but somehow Vista recovered by reinstalling its own BT-drivers and after that I got a perfect ActiveSync connection over Bluetooth.
Every now and then I get some sync errors, and most of the time these are solved by closing Outlook 2007 and then resyncing (which starts Outlook in a hidden thread). Rebooting the notebook helps also of course.
I've Vista too and my trinity was recognized automatically. The only problem is that i can't install application by Mobile Device Center because every program ask me to install Active Sync 4.2 but Vista not permit to install any release of active sync.
I know this may sounds like the usual not unchecking the advanced network tick box but I promise I've tried everything to get my hermes to sync and it won't
situation is I've upgraded to a 6.1 ROM and WMDC (Vista Ultimate 32) says connecting (the device is installed on first connection) and then as it gets to the point where it would normally ask you to set up the partnership, it goes back to not connected. The phone has the two arrows still there like it is connected.
I've ruled out most things and have been trawling around the forums but I've just reached a dead end.
I don't think it's the USB as it does the same thing with bluetooth.
I don't think it's the computer because I recently changed my machine (same OS though)
I don't think it's the phone because it's actually a replacement after my screen broke on my original
I even don't think it's the ROM because no one else has this trouble in the thread ([20755] [OPTIMIZED Manilla2d IS HERE!][09/29](AlmostNak3d)(V8))
I've also tried uninstalling WMDC as much as is possbile on Vista and I've tried disabling the windows firewall
It's so frustrating, as I seem to have 6.0 working no probs but that ROM is just so good I have to have it (but with some contacts would be best)
The only thing that I can think of is that I flash the ROMS through an XP machine. This can't be causing the issue can it?
Any help gratefully received. I determined that this phone stays with me until the HD comes out and it really doesn't have long to go now
no one have any suggestions
(or did i post this in the wrong forum)?
Have you tried deleting all partnerships on the phone and computer and then tried to sync it. I have the same rom as you and device and i have problems only when i try to sync via bluetooth. Check the com port for the bluetooth is not conflicting with the WMDC. You could even try disabling the bluetooth comport and see if that makes a difference
If it syncs with an xp machine, why dont you try, exporting the contacts as comma seperated values(windows) and then import them on to the xp machine, at least that way you will have your contacts on the phone.
Also why do you flash with the xp machine and not vista, have you installed all updates in vista?
thanks for the reply SM. Sorry for the delay in my response but I've been sunning in the maldives! I got things going before leaving (so i had some contacts) by doing pretty similar to what you suggested. I sync the xp machine with the vista machine and then sync the phone with the xp machine. I've tried deleting the partnerships on both sides (i've even tried reinstalling vista) but I'll give the removing of the bt com ports a go i think.
my flashing from xp was just a historic thing. i think there may have been an issue with vista once as i was staying away from it for some reason but after my previous post i actually think i did then flash from vista
Upgrade with vista?
Upgrade with vista? its posible I think it has issues...
I can recomend to you...
1.- download again the usb drivers for your Motherboard on XP machine...
2.- Even if you have Windows Vista you can aquire a XP emulator for Win vista and do these things.
3.- If you dont ant to install again the drivers for USB ports so....
restart your PC and your PPC witout unplug your PPC let it boots togheter... it fix my trouble with the same ROM you have...
My M3100 did previously sync fine with vista but two months later on the same 'puter it's not recognised now. It'll sync fine with another 'puter on XP and activesync 4.2 so I doubt the problem lies with the M3100. On Vista (32 bit Ultimate) I have WMDC 6.1. I've tried turning off Zonealarm (windows firewall is permanently off). I've tried deleting the mobile adapter and letting it reinstall. I've tried it with and without a microSD in and tried soft resetting it whilst connected. I've tried several cables and a cradle and also several USB ports. I'm fresh out of ideas and hope to pick the brains of someone who knows better please. Running WM5 if that makes any difference to things though I did tinker with it to get it to work with a 4GB card (It did sync with that set-up previously).
After vast mucking about I've just got a sync by going:-
start
settings
connections
usb to pc
disabling the advanced network functionality
Hey presto it works though to what degree I've still to find out!
I just upgraded my desktop software to Windows 7 from XP but now I can't sync with my HD2. I'm using 32 bit Win7 and Outlook 2007 and when I plug in the USB cable from my HD2 I get the error message, "Driver not found". Anyone else have this problem?

I'm using Vista and had a similar problem. Solved by installing Windows Mobile Device Centre. This is needed instead of activesync.
Yes - there have been tonnes of issues with Win 7. See for example this thread
I tried every possible solution. In the end, I had to re-install windows 7. That fixed it up right away.
A few of the possible solutions are USB related so do a search on how to uninstall and re-install USB drivers in Device Manager.
A pos solution.
In your control panel click on your device manager icon , scroll down to portable devices and uninstall all of the devices found within this cat.
Reboot your computer, i then have to re pair the phone to the computer. This works for me in Vista , ive found that if i use different usb slots to sync my phone things just seem to get messed up. I think this may work as well in W7, i use W7 sometimes and things seem to be simular.
Hope this helps

Also this think keeps eating the batteries any suggestions on how to extend battery life? I am using the 6.5 version of windows and 3.37.10 something and 3nfs and something else that starts with DCAAM could not read it all fast enough
Are you running windows 7 or windows xp. 32 bit or 64 bit...........
vista..32 bit
I am pretty sure I am using the right sync-er device
It was loaded directly from windows and said to use with vista 32 bit

Try to get an XP computer. Also, if your battery is draining, you may need to change it. Vogue's battery life is usually not bad.
