Is it just me, or does 2005 not let you backup your device? With 2003, there was an option in activesync to back up your device... which dissapears when I hook up my Prophet?!?
Yes,that's because WM5 has permanent storage,M$ tought Backup is not need anymore! Try using different Sync Program

I can't make a standard partnership with my PC, everytime I get this messege and I makes e crazy :evil:
I tried to reinstall actuvsync, make a new partnership, delet the old partnership but nothing happend.
Please help, I can just make a quest partnership
is it the latest 3.7.1 ?
Yes it's v. 3.7.1
Shaytaan,
Are you able to try it on another PC?
If you can do so, at least you can narrow down the issue by eliminating the PC side, to then concentrate on the XDA.
I'd be thinking it's a database corruption on the XDA though, and I imagine a cold boot would be required to get everything working again. That said, I'm not talking from experience here - just thinking out loud I guess....
Codenix. :roll:
Thanks for replying
Soft reset didn't solve the problem, I tried many times.
I guess the problem happend after I installed Experince 2.0.3 and my dashboad disapeared from my ppc destop, so I decided to uninstall Exerience, after that I can't connect to my activsync again and there is nothing mentioned at activsync troubleshooting :x
Can anyone help please :roll:
Okay, then it sounds like it's more of a PC-side thing (if reset didn't fix it).
Once again, can you try it on another PC? If you find that you can set up a partnership on another PC, then it's going to be something on your PC which is causing the problem.
If you're using Win XP (and you know when the problem started, and you're using the built-in XP restore points which are on by default), you might be able to restore your PC to a point before your problems occured.

I could also imagine that the problem is on the PC side of things. What OUTLOOK version are you running? May it be that you have some corrupted data in there?
As bad as it sounds... you may need to go through a re-installation there...
thanks...
I have officeXP 2003 and winXP pro sp2
Now I hard reset my PPC and reinstall activsync.
I had a crash on my MDA II so I had to make a reset. After the boot process and installing all the standard programs I connected it with my PC. But I was not able to use an old partnership.
So I have to configure it all again
How can I use the old partnership that I must not reconfigure my MDA II?
PS: Yeah I forgot to make a backup
why do you need to use the old patnership?
Sorry I totally forgot my post here. Very stressful last week.
I thought with the old partnership all programms will be installed automatically.
And is it possibly to make kind of a backup with active sync to restore everything with syncing after a crash?
if you have set activesync to backup
and you hardreset
and connect the device to the pc
and pick guest
and pick restore from <insert old patnership name here>
your device will get restore it settings and programs
thx i will try that
Hi all. I've installed Activesync 4.2.0 and managed to connect my P3600 to it succesfully. The strange thing is, that there's no "backup/restore" option visible in Activesync to backup my PDA. This was working fine with my previous XDAIIi. Anyone know why this would be? Is is a P3600 specific problem?
Thanks for any info!
Lee.
I think they (Micro$haft) removed it in later versions of ActiveSync
Not available for anything later than PPC 2003
Just found in the help that although the backup feature is still there, it will only backup PPC2003 or earlier devices. Windows Mobile 2005 does not allow backups. How bizarre! Anyone know of a decent backup-to-PC utility out there?
Lee.
I use SPB Backup and there is also Sprite backup. These are probably the 2 best backup programs out there.
.... and does anyone know of any free backup utils out there
I need a little help.
After a crash I hardresetted my Hermes and then used SK Tools to return to a backup point. But now when I try to activesync I get a message on my PC saying that the mobile device has already synced with another PC and it requests a new name for this PC.
I haven't synced with another PC. What should I do ?
When I restore from a hard reset, I normally delete the existing activesync partnership and set this up again with the restored device. Did you delete that partnership?
how can I delete existing partnership ?
In activesync on the pc just go File->Delete Mobile Device.
At least that's how I do it
This is the other way.
I need to delete it from WM5 device.
I guess I found it. I enter Activesync software on PPC and delete the relationship there...
First of all i really want to thank all the Helmi_c and all the developers; My BA is most updated running wm6.
Well much better than wm5 but I have some issues:
1. cant sync it with my PC in anyways (BT, usb etc), USB drivers are not working correctly.
2. sometimes when i pick or dial a call, i cant hear nething.
and last but not relevant to this, guys how do i stop my BA slider from falling down when I use keyboard.
1. Try delete the actual partnership in AS, sync again; if not reinstall AS on PC
2. No problem here with the sound.
same problem here
I upgraded my XDA2s, customized it,backedup, then upgraded my brothers XDA2s and used my customized backup on his XDA2s.
Now my XDA connects fine, but his doesn't !!!
Both our XDa2s's are identical in everyway.
tried a hard reset and restore from another backup and still no luck!
we were trying to save time re-installing the same softwares.
tried deleting partnerships, no luck. tried spb backup and clone, no luck.
any ideas!
Do you get any error messages on AS? Can you browse the internet from device?
usb drivers
can anybody post usb drivers i think this is the problem cause my device isnt installed properly it says problem with inf file.
whoever is able to connect his device to xp desktop via active sync usb connection, please copy the drivers folder contents from program files in active sync folder.
thanks, hope this works
Is your windows firewall enabled? Since WM6 activesync makes use of a LAN connection to sync with the PC, you must allow activesync trough the windows XP firewall, or disable the windows XP firewall completely...
no sound problems with me...
did you try to install WM6_SoundFix_.cab ?
