During a synchronisation (pushmail and calendar) it seems that I am not reachable (is this correct English?) by phone. This is very annoying and this happens more than I thought. Is this normal? Is there some solution to prevent it?

I sync my Vario on two pcs's: at work using mobile activesync and at home. Somehow I always have all reminders on each pc AND on my device. If I dismiss a reminder on my pda, then sync, I will get the reminder again on my pc. I get very tired of dismissing the same reminders over and over again. Are my settings incorrect?
anyone?
Is Mobile activesync even capable of syncing reminders?
I use a Magician, but I'm also not happy with ActiveSync. Syncing on two PCs often doubles my series appointments. And this *****.
Same problem here (although I sync with only one PC), I get annoying reminders from the PC for passed appointments/tasks that I've dismissed on my phone. I think I should be able to get the Outlook not to remind me, but well, I rather have a few more annoying clicks than to miss any appointments. But it would be great if someone finds a solution to this.
Hi,
I sync with two PC's - Work and Home with no problems at all.
(Active Sync 4.1.0 Build 4841) However - and this may be the difference - I do not use Outlook - I use mNotes to sync with work emails, meeting , contacts etc and use this as the master for all my details. At home I disable all syncing actions and just use it for upadating Pocket Weather, Journal bar and other programs that download from the internet.
I still get reminders etc but only once and only those that are due - it doesn't matter which PC I'm connected too.
Regards,
Chris.
Sometimes I think the not syncing of reminders screws everything up. I don't know how activesync syncs appointments but sometimes I lose appointments. If I change an appointment on my pda and dont sync yet, I will get a reminder on my pc (for the old unchanged appointment). After I dismiss that I think that is registered as a change to the appointment. Since the latest change is now made on my pc, after syncing my old appointment appears on both devices. annoying.
bump. I searched the net and this forum and can't find anything about how to fix this.
Hello,
Recieved my HD yesterday and am still setting it up, sync center works fine so long as I dont have "Contacts, Calender, Email or Tasks" ticked.
If they are ticked the sync process never finishes but the progress bar will cycle endlessly.
I have Outlook 2007 installed but have never really used it before so I could be missing something, afaik my email accounts have been configured correctly and Outlook appears to be working correctly.
Anyone have any insight into this problem?
TIA
Dave

Can you sync with your Exchange server over the air (using data connection)? I know I have never been able to sync with our OWA (Outlook Web Access) address when plugged in to USB but I can over the air just fine. Same thing where it cycles endlessly. I can with other Exchange servers just not where I am currently syncing with. It has something to do with their network settings here where I work.
I'm trying to sync with my home PC, I have no exchange server.
To be honest I'm a bit lost with outlook, never really used it before - I have always used Outlook Express for email.
how long do you wait before giving up? first time synch usually takes a while, could go up to an hour or so.
I've waited up to 30 mins with no advance on the "windows mobile device center" progress bar "sync center" is cycling the progress bar as if it is initiallising.
Have tried wiping out my phones contact list and syncing one contact with same result - just uninstalled Office and reinstalled outlook from supplied HTC CD with same result.
had that problem also.
had to uninstall the wm device center (had it twice, so i uninstalled both) then reinstalled the latest version (drvupdate-amd64.exe in my case).
now everything works just fine.
Just tried that twice and unfortunatly is seems to have not worked - Thanks for the help here guys, anyone else got anu nuggets of info that could help me?
Seems to be sorted now - Pretty sure it is an AVG firewall issue, "allow all" lets me sync.
Thanks for the suggestions guys.
Well I'm still completly lost - AVG firewall is definatly the problem here but I cant figure out how to fix it perminantly.
I'm used to setting rules in firewalls to allow certain programs but cant for the life of me find out what specific .exe or service is required to be enabled for outlook contacts, emails or notes to sync.
My temp fix involves setting AVG firewall to "allow All" - the phone will sync instantly but set to my default profile only files, favorites etc .... will sync
Anyone had this problem or know how to fix it?
Managed to track it down
AVG 8.5 Tools>Firewall Settings>'Profile'>System Services>Windows RPC Service - Set to 'Allow For Safe' for those with the same problem.
Thanks once again for peoples input.
I always uses google services. Including google calendar / email, etc.
I have set up my wm6.5 with activesync and it sync my email and calendar fine.
However, I found that the activesync will sometimes hog up my mobile's CPU for more than half and hours. I felt the phone unresponsive and heat up fast. I can hardly switch on the task manager but I managed to find the responsible program for this - activesync. It uses up all available CPU for a long long long time. Some times it drains all the battery and my phone just shut down itself. During the time, I will not able to start the activesync client and soft reset is the only solution.
I used to have activesync's schedule set to "As it arrives" but I turn it to like by "2 hours" now. Thing is now better but it still happens.
I can live with high cpu loading while it was checking mail or sync with calendar but I certainly not convinced that it required more than 10 minutes for that.
Please share your experience.
I have tried Google Sync two times. After a couple of syncs that worked OK an error appeared, something like a configuration change in the server, sync error. Then when I synced, all my calendar items were duplicated and all my contacts reversed First Name with Last Name. And the phone was set to overwrite the server if something is wrong/error. Thank to the backup.
Okay.. gotta to change the information. It is NOT related to google service. it is solely the problem of activesync. I have reset my phone and not setting up any sync services. But the activesync kicks in again and once again used up all CPU time. Even with no internet connection. (Radio Off)
This is a ****......... I hate it.
Hmmm... I've never had a problem using Activesync+Google with Laurentius's Rom.
I sync Google Calender with Activesync, contacts with Microsoft MyPhone, and email with my own Pop3 provider (Fastmail).
Good luck
If I delete email off my phone and then 15min later I have thm all back because they rae not being archived (which I have gmail set 2 do)
is this a phone problem or gmail?
+1 same here
iv seached all over.. top and bottom (unless I'm a bad searcher... I cant find it)
might be a server issue. I had a similar issue and couldn't figure out how to fix it. Thankfully problem fixed itself.
do you have your gmail account setup normal or for a exchange server?
I have just noticed that gmail is not updating from the phone to computer or server but it works the other way fine..... So if I enter a calendar event in the phone it will not show up on server or my computer but if I enter on server or computer it will show up on phone. I thought is was a HD2 issue but my mozart is doing the same thing and it is fully standard, no mods. Has anyone else got any issues?
I'm not having that issue. I just put a calendar entry in today. When I got home to my computer, 30 minutes later, and synced Outlook to gcal, the entry was there.
Has this always been an issue? It's odd that it's occurring on 2 devices. That leads me to believe it's a gcal issue over WP7/HD2 issue. :|
