hello all,
After the installation of ActiveSync, i insert the usb cable to laptop and put the Xda II on cradle, the ActiveSync in computer couldn't find any device (Xda II) and i can't setup the partnership, however, my Xda II display the "connected" only for 2 seconds and then interrupt for ever, i have installed the ActiveSync many times and hardreset the XdaII, but it is still not connected, what's wrong with this? :?: :?: :?:
When the xda 2 is first plugged into usb you should get a message on your laptop screen saying device found htc etc, once this is done activesync should see it. Which version of activesync are you using?
I tried the ActiveSync 3.7 and ActiveSync 3.8, the results are same. The laptop can find the USB, but the ActiveSync can't find the XdaII.
Idea
I am assuming Active Sync works on other computers?
If you are using XP,
Make sure the device is plugged in.
Open up task manager, (Ctr + Alt + Del), go to processes and end task on WCESMgr.exe and or wcescomm.exe.
Right click on My Computer, select Manage. Expand Device manager, Windows CE USB Devices, right click on PocketPC USB Sync and Uninstall, click Yes.
If you see any devices with an explanation point or marked Red, Uninstall them too.
Unplug your device.
Open up Active Sync, under the settings, make sure USB is checked.
Plug in your device.
I have seen this happen if windows did not configure the device properly at first.
As a thank you for my time, send me naked photos of your wife!!! KIDDING!!!! :shock:
Thanks for your help, i have done this by following what you said, but it is still not connected. When the laptop find the Device USB first time, the XDAII just display the "connected" for 1&2 seconds. I click the "Error" on XDAII, which is Synchronize with Server, then it displays:
The connection failed due to mising server information or user credentials. Tap Options, and then the Server tab to verify that your server name is correct. Then, tap'Optaions..." to verrify that your user credentials are correct and try again.
I haven't changed ther Server Synchronization in "Option", and my laptop doesn't need any user name and password to logon.
What's wrong with this? How to set up the "Option" in XDAII?
DUDE!!!
It is hella confusing.. BUT... You do not use the Server setting.
I use the Server setting but I have my own Exchange server 2003 and using Exchange Server 2003 Mobile Services, I have my Contacts, Calendar and Inbox always up to date via the Internet, (I have unlimited Internet through T-Mobile for $19 a month).
You need only to use the PC synchronization. Open Active sync, Tools, Options, Options again and check to make sure it is checked and USB is selected, OK, make sure the other two are "Ticked" as well, OK.. Then try.
This Time I only want naked photos of your DOG!!! :lol: :shock:
There should be some problems with laptop, because everthing is ok when i connect my XDA with other PCs. I can't find what problem is with my laptop. It is running Windows XP professional edition.
Darge, this isnt going to sound very logical, but if you have more than one usb port, please try the other port, I have had similar problems with activesync whic have been resolved by doing this, dont ask me why because i dont know.
May be should try othe type of connection other than USB. Try using either bluetooth or wifi. May be you should search in the forum regarding connection using bluetooth or wifi.
My Xda and laptop are connected and working very well after i reinstalled the Windows XP for my laptop. It was the stupid and only way what i could do, because i have tried all kinds of solutions which were not useful.
Thanks a lot for your advice and help anyway. 8)
Hi All,
Sorry to be a n00b BUT>>>
I have installed activeSync.
Sorted the settings for mcAfee...stayed off the net etc....no other network stuff running.
I dont even get a connecting message????
My system can see the device in Windows explorer but cannot access it.
Tried it on another machine never connected to the net with Zone Alarm, ge the connecting, but it just stalls.
Can someone tell me the settings for the Xda? to enable connection?
or ANY help?
PLEASE?
I have a problem with ActiveSync (or with my Qtek 9000, who knows): when I connect the PDA to the PC through USB, the PC detects the PDA, ActiveSync goes into "Connecting" mode, and then.. nothing. It says that it can not connect.
I followed several troubleshooters on the Internet, but the symptoms still remain.
Perhaps it's a software problem on the PDA. I'd love to perform a hard reset, but I must synchronize first (it's been 2 months since I can't synchronize, and I have done quite a bit of appointment and document entry on the PDA).
So.. what should I do?
I can connect the PDA to the Internet through WiFi and GSM 3G. Should I run a backup program, transfer everything to a FTP site, and then hard reset?
If so, which backup program should I use?
Is there anything I can fix on my PC to make it connect to the PDA?
What is your advice?
THANK YOU!
I have exactly the same problem when connecting via a USB cable to my home PC. Connecting to my home pc via bluetooth works fine and connecting to my work pc with a cradle works fine.
I've tried using different USB cables, different USB ports and have two Qtek 9000's with exactly the same problem on the same PC. I've tried re-installing AS 4.1 and 4.2 and both fail to sync with the cable.
Any ideas or advice would be greatly appreciated.
My Qtek 9000 used to connect and sync on this computer. In the last 2 or so months, this hasn't worked. No idea why!
Are any of you using the app "USBSwitch"??
For some reason, ActiveSync is using settings for a serial connection to connect to your PDA. USBSwitch will allow you to set the connection as RNDIS, which will allow you to connect and sync.
You can download it here -- http://forum.parallels.com/thread2743.html
I had the same problem with my Cingular 8125, and then found out that HTC included the USBSwitch app into the latest ROM upgrade. Has been working fine ever since I found it to switch over.
I had similar problems with my Qtek 9100
My problem was my firewall (Sygate personal firewall (SPF)) which did not allow me to connect via USB.
If I turned SPF of it worked.
My current firewall, NVIDIA Firewall, asked me if I wanted to allow the USB connection to my device. When allowed everything works fine.

hi guys,
i have a big big problem - i cant sync normally my prophet. As I sync it via bluetooth oftenly it connects to the PC but there is no internet and browsing the phone options. The other and most bad problem is that the same is with the usb cable. even when I disconnect it it crashes the internet connection of the PC and I have to reset the network adapter everytime I disconect my phone. Oftenly I have to plug and unplug the cable to establish normal connection. I have the problem with different roms, using Vista 32x.. Please help .. I cant use my prohpet as it is supposed to
That's not really a problem its natural I have that same problem the PC is just trying to use your phone as a modem for internet access that's all. When connected to PC with your USB cable do you get internet access on your phone? if not you should configure manualy the phones network adapter when connected to active sync. It could work and we both got Vista 32 bit edition on Xp I don't get this disconnecting problem but if u wana sync only then uncheck the option in active sync Alow Data communications I think uncheck that option and your problem will go away ok but doing that ur PC won't share internet access with your Device ok hope you understand
