I've searched and haven't found any help at all with this. I'm trying to sync my 9100 with outlook 2003 sp2 as indicated in the title. I can establish an activesync connection and sync notes and files as well as explore the device and install software, however whenever I try to add tasks, contacts or calendar to the sync options I begin to get an error.
Basically what happens is that it will save the settings and then I get an incomplete sync with an error code of: Support Code 85010014. I've searched the microsoft site and can't find this code anywhere. I've followed the activesync 4.0 troubleshooting guide, but since I am establishing a connection that doesn't seem to be the problem. I've been a PocketPC user since day one so I'm not new to any of this, but I'm really at my wits end with this issue. I've hard reset and reinstalled activesync more times than I care to count. I can also still sync with my old jam just fine. Any help would be appreciated. Are there any unique configuration issues for 5.0 devices relative to Outlook 2003? Does it not like running in cached mode? Thanks in advance for any help.
If you are trying to connect to your home machine try:
Delete Any Partnerships From Activesync & the Device
Uninstall Activesync
Uninstall (Not Repair) Outlook - you'll probably need your Office CD for this.
Reboot
Reinstall Outlook
Reinstall Activesync
Cross your fingers
This has seemed to work for some people but not everyone.
There is a known issue with folder redirection on corporate networks. The Activesync team is aware of this and an upcoming version of Activesync will address it. For the moment the the only workaround is to turn off folder redirection. Unless you are a sysadmin, this is not likely an option for you. If you are in this situation, then unfortuantely you'll have to sit tight - like me.
Hope this helps.

I also had to uninstall both the latest outlook junk update as well as the junk update from office sp2 to get as4 working properly.
Success. What worked was to delete my current Outlook profile and account and then set it up again. The first time I did it I didn't delete the outlook.ost file and the new account settings just referred back to that file and I had the same problem. The second time around I deleted that file, configured my outlook settings and got that working and then syncing started to work as well. It took a little time, but has been working well since then. Thanks for the help. It's really strange that my jam and ipaq continued to sync thru AS4.0 just fine, but the qtek wouldn't. Appears to be some weird combination of WM5.0 and AS4.0 that causes the problem.
Ive been using the new release of windows vista Build 5384, to my suprise activesync no longer works, Microsoft have included a built in program called Sync Center.
To my suprise again i´m still trying to sync my magician...anyone with ideas would be helpfull.
Hey all,
I'm currently testing out the Beta 2 version of Microsoft Office Pro +, and apart from this issue I'm impressed so far...
When I create a calendar appointment, or task with Outlook, any details that I put in the notes section of the item used to (with Outlook 2003) transfer over to the PPC Calendar and Tasks to be able to view and edit.
But now it's blank. It copies the appointment, the times, whether it's busy/free etc, but refuses to display any of the details that I put in the notes.
Is there anything I can do about this, or is this a glitch with the new software and it's tough? I'm using a HTC Uni (T-Mobile MDA Pro), so posted it in the Universal Board, as don't know if it's a General issue with all devices or just this one.
Cheers!
Dave.
It's working for me. Sorry, that's all I can tell you.

Are you using Office 2007 with Windows XP or Windows Vista?
I'm on XP at the mo, but if you're using Vista I'll jump in the deep end and try that...
Cheers.
HI, I have the problem the other way around. I am using office 2007 beta with activesync 4.2. when I add notes to a calendar item on my universal, and then sync it with my desktop, I lose all my notes on both ppc and desktop.
This is very frustating as I am in the habit of typing meeting notes directly into calendar items on my universal.
Can anyone help, please?
Thanks in advance.
I'm using Office 2007 on Win XP. I had it running with AS 4.1 and now with 4.2. Both are no problem. I guess I just got lucky.
Has no-one any ideas how I can fix this
WM6, Vista, Office 2007 Sync Problem
Hello,
I've just upgraded my Universal (O2 Exec), to jwrightmcps' 2.02 Version
Windows Mobile 6.
While on my desktop I'm using WinXP +AS 4.5, and Office 2003 without a problem .
However, on my Laptop (ThinkPad T43), running Windows Vista Ultimate (+Windows Mobile Device Center - The equivalant of ActiveSync), and Office 2007, I'm having problem syncing the device.
I don't get any error on the laptop, but get an 0x8000FFFF error on the device.
None of my Contacts, Calendar, Tasks, Notes etc. is synced in either way.
any one got the same problem?
it is obvious that the combination is the problem, as I didn't experience any problem before upgrading to Vista. (WinXP with ActiveSync 4.5 + Office 2007 worked fine).
any ideas for solutions?

Have you updated your version of WMDC - there was an update a month or so ago. It's referred to in one of the threads on Uni Upgrading.
Bad bad bad!! I'm using final version of Vista, Final version Office 2007, Just downloaded WMDC last week and Dopod 900/universal Windows Mobile 6 Jwright.
if you open outlook 2007 and then write your contact and then in notes just write something.., after you finished synchronizing, the contact was successfully copied onto the Dopod 900, but the the note didn't get copied!
If you write the notes within the contacts under Dopod 900, and then synchronizing it, the note within contact would be copied back onto computer with no problem. so it's only the other way around the problem
Also I have a second problem: Whenever I leave my Dopod 900 synced connected with my laptop and when there is a phone call coming in then I proceed to unplug the usb to pick up the phone, This may result in some sort of data corruption in syncing status, I think. Because after that, when I try to re-synhronize the dopod 900 again, it would try to synchronize from ground 0, so it would delete every synchronized data such as contacts, tasks, calendar in my Dopod 900 and re-transfer from desktop computer into this device all over again.

Try to use AS4.5 as much as possible.
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/activesync/activesync45.mspx
I've found out it works better then 4.1 / 4.2
Other then that, I can't help you on the 2007 part

I wish I could do that. I don't think I can since I'm using Vista.
Is this real?
You can't use AS 4.5 with Vista and it doesn't sync correct with Office 2007 otherwise? If that's right that is a classic Microsoft snafu.
Works fine for me with Xp and office 2007 though, on AS 4.5.

Yes it's very real. AS 4.5 not working under Vista.
Anyhow, I bought HTC Athena today and the problem didn't happen with HTC Athena. So perhaps it's device specific.
Hi guys, Ive just recieved my t mobile mda vario II, and pretty happy with it. I installed active sync 4.01 from the cd provided but on start up got the following message " outlooks requires outlook express 4.01 or greater ".
Not sure how to go forward really as i have outlook 2002 and outlook express 6 (which will open fine and is set as the default email client on my xp home machine).
I have searched the microsoft knowledge base, but the only advice is all realting to windows 98 and IE 5, but again I am running IE 7.
Final point really is in an attempt to fix this i have upgraded to active sync 4.5 but the error still exists.
Any help be well recieved guys thanks.
Welcome to the forum...
I think you need active sync 4.5 to be able to upgrade to some of the newer ROMS if you want to start doing that - so that upgrade was a good start.
Is everything else syncing or do you cancel the process when you see the message? Try uninstall/re-install Active sync, then when you connect your device again de-select email sync for the first couple of syncs - see if that sorts out the problem.

i think the problem is with my outlook somehow. I cannot run outlook now, but i have tried reinstalling it and active sync with no change. The problem i have is that i cannot find a standalone installer for outlook express so uninstalling and reinstalling that isnt really an option. Also, i didnt seem to get a new version of OE bundled with internet explorer 7 when i installed it...
any ideas?
Guys,
is there any other good email sync prog for syncing emails from a laptop - outlook to windows mobile 6.1 ??

i tried everything at home here. but still for example when installing hardspl or simply just wanting to backup my data or sync my tasks i want to use this
is there any alternative? or an expert on activesync whos up for the challenge?
