I've been using ActiveSync for my iMate Jam for the past 2 years through the USB connection on my laptop.
Last week I signed up for a 3G broadband connection with MTN (South African company) and got a [email protected] E220 HSDPA modem which also connects through USB port.
Since installing it there seems to be something blocking ActiveSync through the USB as although ActiveSync does 'Connect', it can't synchronize. (Syncronise is lowlighted)
Uninstalling [email protected] fixes the problem, so it definately is something in that software conflicting with ActiveSync. Obviously uninstalling is not a workable solution as my broadband won't work, and I need it.
I've downloaded and installed the latest ActiveSync and [email protected] applications, but it made no difference.
My PC is a Dell Inspiron 640m running XP SP2 and my PPC is a iMate Jam running Windows Mobile 2003SE. I know ActiveSync uses port 990.
I've searched the www for a solution without success. Tried calling MTN support, but their techies were busy and not available..."
Has anyone got any suggestions on how I can fix this - Please.

Alternatively, if someone can point me at a website where I can find out how to set up synchronisation using BlueTooth between my Dell (Windows XP SP2) and iMate Jam (Windows Mobile 2003SE) I'd be very happy. I can only find sites that refer to other combinations and I'm unable to get it right.
Thanks

hello people
i´ve got a problem with my Activ Sync...
If i want to connect my wizard with my Notebook nothing happend.
i don´t know what´s the problem, because at the beginning there are no problems, but after a hard-reset there´s no connection.
Sorry about my english, it isn`t very good (i´am german ! But I hope someone helps me ...
Here are some informations about my system: Win XP with Active Sync 4.1 and a VPA compact 2 :?: :? [/b]
I have had similar issues with ActiveSync before, and usually what you will end up doing is reinstalling the ActiveSync version that you have on both your laptop and your Wizard. Are you getting any messages at all when you dock your device? Does ActiveSync display a message saying "Trying to connect" or "Looking for device"?
thanks...
the problem was a hub. i had a hub between the wizard and the laptop. without the hub the connection is possible and the problem isn´t there.
but on my desktop, (no hub between desktop and wizard) there´s the problem still existing. the desktop try to connect and search a connection, but... there isn´t any connection...
Troubleshooting ActiveSync is a pain, isn't it? OK, I have a couple of things you can try...hopefully one of them will work...
1. If you have a firewall running (and yes, believe it or not Windows firewall can even be an issue), it needs to be configured to allow ActiveSync applications to work. For that, you'll need to consult the software provider's manual or their web site. Most of them have already identified this as a problem.
2. If you have partnered to this desktop before, make sure that the partnership names haven't changed. In other words your laptop is calling your wizard by the same name as your desktop.
3. Are you running a home network? I think I saw this in another post here, that VPN clients can be an issue because the computer is viewing your mobile hookup as a network connection. Uninstalling the clients can sometimes provide the cure.
I hope that this helps.
shaker,
please ensure you have XP Service Pack 2 on both machines.
ciao!
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!

Probably a port issue
You probably need to open up specific ports that Activesync is using. They are listed on threads here if you search.
same problem....and i have no firewall running.
MDA vario connection is not working
MDA Pro is working well
I have already solved the problem by disable Sygate Firewall software used by my company.
But how can I synchonize the device with home Desktop and company Laptop together? Both of them need not to synchonize all of the data.
Thanks!
Apologies if this is in the wrong area. I have spent alot of time researching this issue and im yet to find a resolution. I am working in area with a strict SOE on the dekstop PC. I have an O2 XDA Atom. with activesync 4.5 I am using GPRS to connect to the internet on my o2 this is working fine. however the problem occurs when i dock the O2 into its cradle. the GPRS connection will cut and i wont be able to reconnect it. I have changed the properties of activesync and my O2 between 'my work' and 'the internet' to no joy. I realise i can do this by turning off accept usb connections in activesync but then i cannot control my O2 with the software installed on my machine..
what i want to be able to do is run MSN on my O2 continually all day and be able to view the screen from my desktop along with it syncing my calendar etc. if there is any articles which can help me that would be good ive been trying to resolve this for some time now to no avail.
Thankyou in advance
Same problem here..As I am using the my mobiler apps to control the phone via computer..The gprs is disconnected if i plug the cable data...help pls
Hi Guys
Sorry if ive posted this in the wrong place (Admins, feel free to move it if need be)
Well... My old iMate JasJar (HTC Universal) died completely last night, so today I went and got myself an OKTA Boss... Im pretty sure its an HTC Manufactured phone, just cant quite work out which model... But anyway... Onto my problem
I regularly work out of the office and rely on my PDA for internet access, I used to use the USB Dialer for WM5 with the JasJar and it worked just fine.
Now the new BOSS has WM6 so has Internet Connection Sharing... But I just cant get it to work...
Everytime I connect it the icon in the taskbar (Im running Windows XP SP2 and ActiveSync 4.5) searchs for the IP address and then fails to find an IP, coming up with a error in a bubble:
"There is limited or no connectivity on this network connection"
ActiveSync works fine, as does browsing and copying files to and from the phone within My Computer, but Internet Connection Sharing doesnt...
Heres what Ive tried so far...
-Turn off USB Connections in ActiveSync (on PC, have to do this anyway or PDA complains)
-Diabled Windows Firewall (on PC)
-Disabled or deleted all other network connections and old USB Modem drivers (on PC)
-Turned off "Enable Advanced Network Functionality" (on phone)
-Tried 3 Different PCs and 4 Different Cables (all with same results)
-Yelled @ various peices of IT equipment in my house LOL
So any ideas on how to fix this?
If not then my Screen Name is living up to its meaning.
mabey the phone is not getting gprs/edge?
Make sure you close the ActiveSync when it try to start, you can do it with the X Button
or simply use the
Setting > System > Memory > Running Program
select ActiveSync and the click Stop
If you do this quick the internet connection will up if you let the ActiveSync run long enough it will set up PC to your device connection for data syncronization/transfer only with no routing to internet.
Hope this help
Maybe Your service provider does not allow you to use your data connection to share with the pc, try using pdanet that way you can syncronise and use it for ICS at the same time
