hi everyone,
just a quick question. i am going to format my PC and try installing Vista. I am home for the holidays and left my Activesync CD at school so i wont be able to get it for 3 weeks.
the question is:
is there a way i can retreive my cd key from the registry or anything so i can reinstall activesync on vista?
thanks everyone
If you are wanting to use vista, well you will not need it, as it comes with vista, it is a new one and you can not run the old ones with vista!

The key is application licence (wm5), activesync is a free download from ms for windows, the new release vista is built in.
I just tried to sync my MDA to Vista, and got the following error message:
Previous versions of ActiveSync cannot be installed on Windows Vista. The features previously found in ActiveSync are now available in Windows Device Center. Connect your Windows Mobile powered device to the PC to get the Windows Mobile Device Center from Windows Update.
So I went to Microsoft, entered the Windows Mobile Device Cenet as a search, it took me a new page all about Vista and ActiveSync. I downloaded the beta, it installed and work great! Very nice interface, all tools on one page. I'm a happy camper!
Hi,
i've found an ipaq h1915 and would like to use it on my vista.

can someone help me with this prob.
thx

anyone an idee or a link to: how to change a windows mobile?
Change it in to what?
Just kidding. Didn't know Vistas device center does not support old PPCs. One more reason not to use this crappy OS.
Unfortunately as far as I know there is no update for that model.
You could check out HP site, but I doubt you will find anything. Your best bet is to download ActiveSync 3.8 (google it since MS no longer provides downloads) or even 4.5 (from MS site) and see if Vista lets you install and run it.
thx for the reply.
i also had the idee to download the active sync 4.5, but as usually doesn't work on vista because vista has a program of it's own for that.
called mobile device center, installed it... gues what doesn't work on windows mobile versions before 2003
Hi all!
Yesterday I bought an XDA Exec PDA mobile and I've got a little problem with it. I can't sync with Vista.
I found a notification which says:
Note: Microsoft ActiveSync works only with Windows XP SP2 or earlier. If you have Windows Vista, your synchronization settings will be managed through the Windows Mobile Device Center. Windows Mobile Device Center is available through the Windows Mobile Device Center page.
If I know well I need ActiveSync to...sync. I've visited the "Windows Mobile Device Center page", downloaded the software and installed but nothing happened. I've already tryed to refresh the driver named...some kind of Adapter #2 (...) No matter. Still doesn't work.
I managed to install Windows Mobile Center but ActiveSync still cannot be installed.
Help, please!
