I'm a noob and this is my first post so please be gentle with critique. I could not find a similar post so I thought I'd offer this up for communal use.
I have been evaluating the URGE subscription music to go service over the past week and kept running into an error during the sync process to my device (error code in the subject line). The track downloads fine, plays fine on the desktop but fails to sync to the device citing the aforementioned error.
I found a solution to the issue although I would not call it a final solution. I'm posting it here so that if anyone else is having this issue they can find a solution on the net via this forum and/or Google.
I found that if I Sign-Out of URGE after downloading the track (w/ proper sync rights) then queue the desired track(s) for sync then "Start Sync" the tracks will sync to the device.
Something about being Signed-In prevents the sync. I do not know why.
Syncing From:
* Custom Built PC
* Win XP SP2 (32 bit)
* Windows Media Player 11.0.5721.5145
* URGE 1.1.9060.0
Syncing To:
* Cingular 8525 (aka HTC Hermes, AT&T 8525)
* Windows Mobile 6 (Black Shadow IV)
* Storage Card (Sandisk 512 MB)

So I purchased the Exec today w00t and 2nite IVe been trying to sync it to my laptop (Dell Latitude D600) running Windows XP SP2
I've followed the instructions on the MS webstie regarding problems with firewalls, VPN and network accelerators but to no-avail.
I have managed to sync it to my desktop PC (Windows XP SP2) but thats not real use to me as all my work stuff is on my laptop.
I had a previous version of AS installed but have removed this - still no joy. I get the following popup error messages when I start AS - wether Im trying to sync or not

Any points on this?
thanks,
Nige
PS: I am using Checkpoint VPN on my laptop but under the LAN connection for my mobile device I unchecked the box as per the instructions - still no joy ! [/url]
Hi,
So I think Ive discovered what the problem is - good old VPN blocking the connection - I guess even though the error message talks about an incorrect software version it could just be that AS isnt getting a chance to start up and failing.
Time to talk to our corporate guys in regards to a new VPN policy - how hopeful am I ?
Nige
Okay so problem not solved and this one is driving me totally nuts ! Im so desperate if anyone can help me solve it I'll donte a bit of cash to the tekguru fund !
So basically the error I keep getting is one or both of the following

Troubelshooting to date
- installed AS4.0 with no joy
- delete the AS3.x folders, dlls and registry entries (i think i got them all) with no joy
- uninstalled my VPN and tried to install / sync with no joy
- got down on my hands and kness and begged the XDA master to give me some joy, with no joy !
So Im really at my limits now - I even got a message on the Exec 2nite when I went to syn that I needed to upgrade the version of AS on my pc - errr ?
Nige
PS: and it works on my desktop pc - had 3.8, upgraded to 4.0 and sync no problem - but of course all my work gubbins is on the laptop.
I using the Vista RTM and Office 2007 now, But I cann't sync the Contact and Calendar with my Dopod 838Pro. Because in the Sync Centre I only can sync with media in the setup.
May I know the Windows Mobile Device Center can support Outlook 2007?
Problem Fixed!!
After install the Beta 3 of Windows Mobile Device Center instead of the RTM, everything work and sync fine!
Are you able to now Sync media to the device (or, more specifically, the Storage Card in the device) via WMP? I was able to do this w/ AS 4.2 and WMP11, but seem to have lost that functionality in Vista w/ WMDC b3.
-Lee
Yes, I can do this with the Beta 3.
I have racked my brains trying to sync my media to the storage card.
I have Vista Business (volume license msdn subscription) and I sync everything fine with exchange etc, but I havent found any option to sync music to the storage card, only phone memory.
Any help will be appreciated.
Cheers,
Ronny
i have this problem too on two vista machines with my 8125. i can't figure out what is the problem. its really making me mad!!!
In regards to WMDC, the official release WMDC 6 is out now for download.
Also, in regards to syncing music to the sd card, you have disable advanced network functionality in your pda USB option to see you Sd card via media player on your pc (problem is, without the advanced checked on, transfer rates are as slow as a floppy drive)
how can i do it ???
i was reading some questions inquiring on google...but don´t work nothing
i put the famous key on register...but nothing
i reinstall the device center...but nothing
the vista is original....the problem don´t is for ilegal versions
i don´t know what do it !!!
when i open the device center...the hard disk led blinking some seconds...and stop...and not open the device center....
pleaseeeeeeee ...help me...i can´t sync the outlook 2007 !!!
note: the vista has all update to today, includes the sp1
thanks
me too
Last week I tried to upgrade to WM6 using vista. Shortly after erasing the ROM it crashed and would not connect. I started the upgrade, as it would not sync with Outlook 2007. Something to do with Task.
I’m not sure that the following was what cured it. I added a task on the XDA, and it successfully synced.
However following the crash, I could not connect to the upgrading program. I kept getting a 101 connection error.
Unfortunately the only way I got it to work was by using my other PC with XP on it, and then going back to Vista. Now its great, and back on the road.
i have the same problem, but on my home i have win xp and no problem, but on work i have a pc wiht vista and i can´t downgrade to xp. i must work on vista
i am thinking about upgrade the pocket to wm6 but i am reading some webs and everybody has the same problem with wm6 !!
im using wm6 and its OK
u have to upgrade WMDC to the latest version..it works perfectly with me

I installed Vista on a second partition and kept XP on another partition. That way I could keep my documents and the like on the XP partition and access them from either XP or VISTA. Benefits included keeping the one set of e-mail folders and content as I migrated various programs (such as PocoMail) across to Vista. And yes, they all work—and faster than my now bloated XP could handle things. I am using a 2002 ASUS A7V8X Mobo but every other component was new in 2007-08.
All went well, including synchronising my O2 XDAII Pocket PC (PPC) running SIN’s famous version of Windows Mobile 2003 SE—ROM version 2.06.00WE. I used Windows Mobile Device Centre and successfully and synced Calendar, Contacts and the like with Outlook 2007. After a couple of weeks, the PPC would no longer sync ... connect via USB, yes ... but WMDC 6.1 turned into Windows Mass Data Corruption.
Well, I tried the usual tricks that others have put forward like rolling back to WMDC 6.0, as Neville Lang suggested in the following extract wherein he:
Uninstalled the two Windows Mobile Device Center 6.1 items from the
Control Panel > Programs and Features list
Manually deleted the contents of the C:\Windows\WindowsMobile folder.
Initially I could not delete some DLLs but once the two "Windows Mobile
device connectivity" services were stopped from the Task Manager, I was able
to delete the rest of the files in the WindowsMobile folder, except for the
en-US folder containing the *.MUI files. I could not delete them and so
decided to leave them.
Using Regedit, deleted all entries from the following two keys that
related to my two devices:
* HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows CE Services\Partners
* HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows Portable Devices\Devices (He left
in the entry for my memory card)
Using Windows Explorer, deleted all files in the following folder:
* C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\ActiveSync\Profiles
With his two Pocket PCs disconnected, tapped on Start > Programs >
ActiveSync > Menu > Options, highlighted the Windows PC and tapped on and
the Delete button. Both of the PPCs had two entries in here so there could
have been some confusion on the desktop at some point, so he deleted both of
them. They do not sync with any other computer.
Rebooted (Restarted) the Windows Vista computer
Reinstalled WMDC 6.0 from the Microsoft Download website.
Recreated the two relationships from the two devices, and they each did
the initial long sync
He then tested each device that it could perform a sync not long after it
was reconnected, and they both now sync perfectly. He also tested that making
any changes to some contact details in Outlook 2007 would update
But this didn’t work for me. Nor did opening specific ports in the firewall (e.g., WMDC--port 990). So I went back to WMDC 6.1 and thought about the matter. It seemed that I had done two things that might have had an effect
1) On the PC installed a VPN to a mapped drive on a work server; and
2) On the PC installed a cable line speed monitor (TCP/IQ) because I never believe the promises made by my ISP about the speed I get.
I uninstalled the line speed monitor and made sure I never connected to the VPN when trying to sync the PPC. I use SunnySoft’s BackUp Manager and so I restored a complete version of the PPC’s system and files from a few months earlier. Next I restored the current calendar etc. from the XP sync with Outlook 2003.
Next came the connect via USB with success and no more problems. I have concluded that while I think I know what went wrong, the PPC was also suffering from the aborted WMDC sync efforts. There is no way around having full backups and being able to take a few steps back to a time when all was well.
Life is good again ... for a while ....

i got a bunch of error messages for the htc sync driver due to being on 64-bit but the program installed fine anyways. strange.
Still no network sharing though!!! Unlike other HTC Sense devices there is not a Network Sharing option to enable on the phone. Looks like TMO had HTC remove it from the final release. Hopefully TMO doesn't have it removed out of 2.2 when it comes to the phone. All the more reason for root.
