hey, can someone help me out here...im going CRAZY!!!
I'm running on Vista, Outlook 2007, WM6 PV3.
I get this error message on Windows Mobile Device Center:
View status%ActiveSync encountered a problem on the desktop.
I've been able to sync just fine but for some reason, I tried today and I got that message. I restarted to phone and computer, deleted the partnership and created a new one. It even erased all my contacts and calender data on the phone. Anyone know how I can get it to sync again without un-installing outlook?
I have ActiveSync 4.5 on WinXP SP3 on a Dell Precision.
My phone is a Samsung Epix with Windows Mobile 6.1
Up until a week or so ago I was able to synch my Outlook contacts, calendar and tasks with no problems (either USB or Bluetooth).
The first problem I saw was that when I went to sync ActiveSync would just keep trying to sync over and over for hours and never stop.
I looked at the log on my phone and it seemed that there were some problems with some recurring appointments. I ended up doing a hard reset on my phone and reinstalling ActiveSync.
Right after doing that there was an error trying to sync the contacts on my phone to the PC (the pre-loaded contacts *View Data Usage, *Pay My Bill, etc..)...soooo, I deleted those.
Now I try to sync and it tells me that the phone is synchronized, but the phone has no contact or calendar or task info...so nothing was sync'ed!
If I delete the connection and then re-do the sync ActiveSync displays that it's synching 0/1549 for the Calendar, so it sees that there are items it needs to sync....but after that it just says it's synchronized.
I uninstalled ActiveSync again and deleted the Windows CE Services nodes in the registry, and the Active Sync folder in Program Files and then re-installed...but the same thing happened. So I've reset the phone, re-installed ActiveSync...but I still can't sync. What else can I try?
Thanks
Not sure exactly how but it's working right now. After doing everything I mentioned above I noticed that Outlook on my PC had hundreds of bogus contacts and tasks created. I deleted these, then I went into ActiveSync/Tools/Options and de-selected then reselected Contacts, Calendar, and Tasks and was able to sync...
heres how to fix this problem:
You get your windows mobile phone... Then you Grip it tightly.
Then you throw it at your Windows Xp computer.
LOLZ, jokes....
Okay forellzz.
To fix it, just uninstall Activesync and try reinstalling until it works.
I had the same problem
I'm sorry if there was any mention of this problem before, but I wasn't able to find it.
But what happened this afternoon was kinda troubling. I've just bought my HTC Hero, two days ago. I've synced it with outlook with 700 something contacts. And all was fine. There was some trouble with syncing, but all contacts were transferred to phone memory.
When out of a blue, this afternoon, I pulled my phone out of my pocket and all contacts simply vanished. Calendar was still intact, txts as well, all fine but the contacts.
When I came home, I tried to sync it again but it just synced two calendar notes. It synced as if all contacts were on the phone, but they were not. So I've managed to restore them by over-riding phone with PC.
Can anyone explain this? How do I know this won't happen again?
I'm using Windows 7 and Outlook 2007 as well as the latest edition of HTC Sync.
(maybe relevant, maybe not, I've managed to hopefully resolve the before mentioned troublesome connection when syncing by manually installing drivers for Windows 7)
Thank you. I hope I was clear.
Probaby an obvious one but if you go into Contacts=>Menu=>View have you accidentally unchecked the set contacts you want to show ?
I'm having the same problem, but running Windows XP w/ Outlook 2007 instead.
First time was using stock ROM. One day all my contacts disappeared (phone and google contacts). The phone contacts I retrieved by forcing HTC Sync to overwrite my phone's data with my PC's. The google contacts I retrieved by doing a factory reset and setting up my google account again.
Then I installed MCR 2.6, and again my contacts disappeared, but this time only the phone contacts (the google contacts remained).
Has anyone else experienced this?
The same problem, twice.
Both time I had this problem when I sent a message.
I think this should be a problem of the ROM-version, and I hope the next ROM will fix it.
I've been trying to figure this out forever.
Every once in a while my phone contacts will vanish, but the Google contacts always remain.
I've tried turning off synchronization for Google contacts and it seems that my phone contacts have stopped vanishing for now. Has anyone faced a similar situation?
Simply migrate you contacts to google. Its very easy. Quite why anyone struggles with Outlook on Android is a mystery. I was Outlook mad pre the Hero, now everything is migrated to googlemail/google calendar/google contacts.
No USB connecting nonsense for updates, all over the air, 2 way sync. Much better than outlook ever was.
Is there any way to sync my Outlook 2010 contacts with my HTC hd2 tmobile usa without using any second party email service, just straight outlook to hd2. I have tried some of the stuff on the board.....everything syncs except contatcs. I luv this phone but this is really irritating, after discarding my iphone (which was so easy working with contatcs). Other than this problem , I am officially a fan
I don't get it, doesn't it automatically sync your contacts when you plug it in your pc? Did you already download windows mobile center on your PC?
Download and install Windows Mobile Device Center (microsoft). Sync your phone via USB and creat a partnership. Choose to sync contacts, mobile favorites, calender, files, etc. as you like (right calender to choose how far ahead to sync). There are directions and you can search the site for more and, if all else fails, ask again.
I have updated my phone to ICS and i used sprite backup to restore the contacts which works fine. After restart all but 2 contacts disappear but the texts and all the calls made are still there. If i use sprite to restore contacts they are there again. But after restart they disappear, i have tried 2 different ICS roms and have the same issue.
Turn off contact sync with your gmail account (and check your contacts on it with your browser on PC...maybe there is something messed up) and try again...should solve your issue.
i skipped setup of google when i installed the rom, i personally do not use my google account on my android phones
I have the same problem. I think it is from the rom. Ifter i sync everything is back to normal. Maybe the problem is when if it can`t get connection and can`t sync normaly its clearing the contacts and the call history.
