I have upgraded to oficial WM6 and I use Windows Vista 64, with the latest Windows Mobile Device Center.
From time to time I keep receiving this error:
"There has been a change made on your server that requires you to re-synchronize all items on your device. Please perform a manual sync."
If I accept I lose the changes made in my P3300.
What should I do ??
I am afraid of syncronizing and loosing every change again
Thanks for any help

I have also updated my Artemis to official WM6, and syncronized with Vista without any problem. But I use Vista 32; maybe Vista 64 with WMDC would be the guilty. Try change to 32b version.

PS.: até aqui nos encontramos!!!
Pois é
Pois é... até aqui.
I cannot believe we all use underestimated 32 bit software in 64bits systems because the softwarehouses doesn´t care to create 64bit programs...
Well, I am still trying
Thanks anyway

They are lazy
They are lazy or think consumers arent interested in 64b.Who to blame?
Before a total flame war agains MS is started, I'd like to say that I had the same thing with the 32 bit version and the latest WMDC.
I think you can go ahead safely (I did, and I didn't lose any files/information). The message only says that it has to do a full synchronisation. Nothing is really deleted, it's just checked extra or overwritten from your computer. If you have a new B&B installation this shouldn't be a problem since you don't have anything on the P3300
How the error appears
"There has been a change made on your server that requires you to resyncronize all items on your device. All changes made since your last successful sync will be lost. Do you wish to continue" Yes or No
I don´t know what to do !
No problem
I've had this same message a lot of times..... well, exactlly every time I made a full restore from a backup after fooling arround with my p3300. And the point is... if you've made changes IN THE P3300, you'll loose them, as it's going to make a complete 'download' of messages and contacts from the server (Exchange in my case)... so you're safe to accept it (if your exchange messages and contacts are ok, of course)
Salut

It happens frequently
I have just accepted the error, and it is fully syncronizing.
But it happened before, and it keeps happening randomly, not if I do something big in my p3300 like a backup restore...
I would just like to say we have been investigating this problem with Microsoft for the last 4 months. Still have not found the cause of the problem. It happens with all of the Windows Mobile Devices independent of WM 5.0, WM 6.0 or WM 6.1. Also it happens with all brands Samsung,HTC, and HP I have seen it happen.
It is to do with something with the settings of the Exchange server but we can not be sure what it is. Our best bet is the Antivirus program causing the mishap on the synchronisation but I have to say we do not have any actual proof
No Exchange Server here...
Well I'm not using Exchange Server. I get this every so often too. I just use a USB.
I'm not exactly sure about this...but I don't remeber that I got this on XP.
I thought it was some software that I installed.

I have the same problem with XP SP2 and Active Sync 4.5 and my ATT Tilt running WM 6.1
This really stinks since it does erase all changes made to the phone contacts!!
Who has a solution??
i had the problem with my treo 750v and it keeps on with my new samsung i780.
it is very annoying. there is no data lost because simply all items are being synchronized again but it takes so long!
i have more than 1000 contacts and many many calendar items.
i still cant imagíne how that problem comes.
in another board someone told that this error occurs when the synchronisation is being interrupted.
i am gonna observe that. maybe that is the problem.
Problem Solved
The solution is at this thread on Microsoft... http://social.microsoft.com/Forums/.../thread/014c27ad-b7ec-43e8-b39f-908e0a88f25c/
However, some people are still experiencing the same problem after following the instructions... and you will! The first time you sync your device AFTER you have received the error message about the re-sync requirement and AFTER you have changed your settings, you will STILL get the same error message. Once the device has been synced (and, yes, after you've lost all your current information that you struggled to enter into your device while driving 60MPH on the highway while talking on the phone)... the error message will no longer appear the NEXT time you sync.
This is the case with my HTC Touch Diamond anyway.
Good luck.
which of the tips provides a solution. i read the linked topic but didnt find any
See here for a possible solution:
http://social.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/windowsmobile/thread/d709054c-24a0-4b47-a29d-043aef6b14f3
i finally found out that its definitely the disconnection during syncing.
if you avoid that, the error doesnt occur.
and for resyncing all items you better deactivate touch flo. then it takes only a few minutes.
wm6 activesync, gmail push email, and error (support code) 0x86000106
Same thing is happening with my CDMA Sprint/HTC Touch Pro. I enabled IMAP on my gmail and set up push email on my phone for my gmail account using activesync. After a while, my phone activesync kept popping up a message saying, "There has been a change made on your server that requires you to re-synchronize all items on your device. All changes made since your last successful sync will be lost. Do you wish to continue?" Under 'Attention Required' it gives Support Code: 0x86000106. I allowed it to re-sync, but the message kept popping up. So as a last resort, I did a hard reset on my phone, but hard reset did not solve it.
After a while, I figured out that the problem was that I had chosen the "Sent Items" folder on my wm6.1 Pocket Outlook to be synced with my Gmail, but the problem is that no such folder exists in Gmail. Actually, Gmail does have such a folder/label, but Gmail calls it "Sent Mail," and this name difference misses up the wm6.1's activesyncing gmail accounts to give the above-mentioned error code. I also noticed that a new label, unbeknown to me, had been created on my Gmail called "Sent Items," so this may have been the reason that the activesync stopped synchronizing Pocket Outlook's Sent Items folder with the Gmail's Sent Mail folder/label.
I deleted the Sent Item label on my Gmail, and I think that I may now be able to start syncing Pocket Outlook's Sent Items folder with Gmail's Sent Mail folder/label, but I am not brave enough to take the risk of going through all that trouble if the error message shows up again. So I am now only syncing the Inbox folders on my Pocket Outlook and Gmail. What I don't understand is how did the Sent Items label get created on my Gmail account to cause all that miss? I did not create it, so my guess is after a while wm6.1's active sync may trick Gmail into making that label and cause all of those problems.
Many people have had this problem and Sprint, HTC, and Microsoft have no idea what is causing it, but I'm pretty sure I have figured it out. What a shame because so many people have reported this problem on various forums and reported not help or resolution for it although some got the error while trying to sync their phone with their computer's activesync 4.5 whereas my problem was using wm6.1's activesync with my gmail account directly to get push email--a service that Gmail began for Windows Mobile users since around Q4 of last year.
If anyone has a solution for this name difference on the two folders in Pocket Outlook and Gmail, please let me know. I hope the info I have provided will help.

I have a couple of POP3 accounts on my O2 XDAIIs. I used to be able to download my email from ISP without problems.
Lately, when there is any email waiting, it will connect and try to download and pop up the following message "Messages cannot be downloaded to your mobile device. Make sure you are connected and that your e-mail account settings are correct. Then, try to download messages again."
The other POP3 accounts work fine, even with the same ISP, and this POP3 account used to work when I first got the unit. The POP3 account in question works fine from my Treo using the same SIM card (I have Cingular).
I searched all over the web and forums, I see many have the problem and some have not been able to resolve it. I tried:
1) Soft and Hard Reset
2) Deleting and reentering the account
3) Used the Sprite Mail cleanup utility (which basically cleans all emails and attachments)
4) Tried a registry key that had worked for some: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Inbox, create new DWORD ForceOffSSL and give it a value of 1.
5) Checked with my ISP – they could not see any problem with the account and works with anything else but my O2 XDA IIs.
6) I tried the Flemail 2006 program (formerly WebIS) and it worled for email. But the program is so buggy and slow that I had to delete it. This tells me the problem is with the native pocket outlook.
If there is NO email, it will connect, check and disconnect with no error.
There is a timeout somewhere. The other accounts can connect and download without problems.
Has anybody else had this problem and does anybody have any suggestions?
:evil:
No one else has had this problem? Any suggestions?
I know it is device specific as it works on the same GSM account on a Treo.
PPC6700 with same problem
I just purchased the PPC 6700 and I love the device itself, but I have had many problems with it after owning it for only 4 days.
1. Sprint failed to let me know that my phone had to be updated. Thanks! I only found out about this update after 1 hour of phone tech support trying to find out why my phone randomly went into flight mode. What a pain in the ***.
2. I have my own servers and cannot download my mail from them or my home isp. Sprint by the way repeatedly told me this must be an issue with you server. I told him after being on the phone for 3 hours (I could tell he wasn't happy) "You must be right! Microsoft has always developed software much more then anything ever put out in the Unix world".
So the only help I guess I can offer to you is "Yes, I have the same problem with the native outlook that comes with WM5.0

Whenever I see this (and I see it a alot) on mt XDA IIs, I just select Accounts|Clear <account>
If it doesnt work immediately then I restart the Outlook Inbox app and/or disconnect/reconnect.
Been through searching registry/deleting this & that database file / re/installing accounts. Havent had to do that for ages.
I access 5-6 pop accounts from various servers, several are my wife's. My bet is that it has something to do with whether the current status of the emails downloaded in your device matches the server etc - due to the function that you can delete the emails from the server by downloading, deleting and then deleting from the 'deleted items' folder and re-sycning
HTH
ME TOO! Any resolution??
I am having the SAME EXACT PROBLEM with my new 6700...did you ever find a resolution?
THanks,
I am having the same problem on a Hermes / TyTN.
My first TyTN was fine. I have 3 email accounts. 1 uses SSL and the other 2 don't. There were no problems using either account.
Having replaced my 1st TyTN with a new one (due to poor wifi on first device) I now get the message 'Messages cannot be downloaded to your mobile device. Make sure you are connected and that your e-mail account settings are correct. Then, try to download messages again'.
The only solution is to use the ForceOffSSL setting for my 2 none-SSL POP3 accounts. Then I have to reboot the TyTN without the ForceOffSSL settings to use my SSL POP3 account.
Continually changing the ForceOffSSL setting and rebooting is annoying, so for the time being I'm using nPOP email client for my non-SSL accounts.
getting an email timed out on cingular 8525
I am getting the same message 'Messages cannot be downloaded to your mobile device. Make sure you are connected and that your e-mail account settings are correct. Then, try to download messages again'. I am having the same problem intermittently with Htc Tytn with a pop account yahoo. I seem to connect without a problem on the internet but i do get this error intermittently. any solution?
Same here ... cannot send mail via OptOnline Account
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
OK...I got a resolution to this last night on the Cingular forum.
Quick answer is that OOL's SMTP Server is locked down. I needed to change the outgoing server to Cingular's (CWMX.com).
Thanks to anyone who took the time to click-in on this thread.
Happy New Year, all!

===================
Hi all, OK, this marks my first post on this board. I've been a lurker for a few months, and have settled into a Cingular 8525 as my first Pocket PC Phone.
I noticed a few days ago that I could not send mail via my OptOnline Account, unless I was using WiFi or the 8525 was tethered to my home PC via ActiveSync. I was thnking all along that it was probably due to some piece of third party software that I installed over the past few weeks (a hearty thanks to all on these forums who develop and/or market their wonderful wares, btw).
But today, for a lack of anything else to do, I hard reset and tried simply setting up that one account to try my machine out in its pure form. Lo and behold, I still get the same error, 'Messages cannot be downloaded to your mobile device. Make sure you are connected and that your e-mail account settings are correct. Then, try to download messages again.'
As a matter of fact, it seems this message itself is in error, since it happens when I try to SEND a message, not when I try to receive them. I have even received emails in this account at the same time this error message appears, but at any rate, messages in my outbox do not get sent.
As far as I can tell, all the settings are correct. I have played with them, and tried all the permutations I can think of, but this baby will not send mail via this account. My XpressMail and Hotmail accounts work fine, both sending and receiving, and I can browse the web fine via My ISP or WiFi.
I have spent a lot of time searching the web for an answer to this problem, but it seems it's been quite prevalent with WM5.0 devices for well over a year, and still does not have an answer.
So ... my first post ... which should have been a thank you all, and Happy New Year, has turned into a request for the talents of you folk who know so much more than I regarding these devices.
Can anyone please lend a hand? Also ... is it "legal" to cross-post this message onto other forums on this board?
Thanks so much to anyone who can provide a solution.

I got it working
Like others in this thread I was getting the "unable to download messages to device" error when sending. My solution is:
Try leaving the 'domain' field blank.
It's on the Server Information page, and also on the Outgoing Settings if you 'Use separate settings' for your outgoing server.
Hope this helps you.

My Domain is blank and frankly im just getting very agrivated by this. Does anybody eles have other advice to give towards this "cannot download message"?
I've got WM6, I've tried clearing and deleting the account, soft resetting the phone, making sure the domain field is empty, etc. It still gives this error for my POP account while my IMAP account is fine. Anyone find a solution?
Yes, deleting the domain really works in some cases (f.e. Gmail), but the same error occurs in my other account although I delete the domain. And funny thing is that it occurs only when there are some emails in outbox, receiving emails seems to work normnally :S
I'm still encountering this problem after trying everything on this post...
any other ideas?
Just had the same problem tonight. My mail server recently changed IP addresses, so I suspect DNS issues were the cause of my problem. I tried using the new IP address in place of the host name, but that didn't work for me. The account settings didn't seem fixable. Deleting the email account entirely and adding it back did the trick.
I'm having this problem with windows live on my dopod 838 pro.
Here's the problem.
Whenever i click on the Sync tab on my today screen, it will start synchronizing all the folders in my email, download whatever emails, upload whatever emails and then it goes to "personal settings" and fails.
I get this message on my today screen in the windows live tab saying "Synchronization Failed.". Anyone experiencing this problem?
Its not that i have never synced before cause the last successful sync was on the 15 of april 2007 at 11:39Pm.
So i am quite boggled by this. I was thinking it was because i was connecting thru wifi, but even when i have it docked to my pc, it fails. I don't know where to start. I've checked my settings both on my dopod and also on my pc and also in windows live settings.
Anyone know anything about this issue i'm having?
I guess no one has encountered this problem....
I need to find out. Also, does anyone know how to merge contacts. Example:
Outlook contact: Smith,John
Windows Live Messenger: Smith,John
How to merge these 2?

I've got the same problem, whether I connect via WiFi or GPRS/UMTS
It used to work perfectly at all times, then it started working for only a few hours after a soft-reset, now it doesn't work at all bo matter what I do.
I noticed that sync is done automatically while I'm connected to messenger (and mails and contacts are synchronized ok), so everytime I want to check my emails I just connect to messenger for a while and then sign out...
any help is welcome !!
problem occurs using Black 2.0 ROM (didn't try on LVSW yet)
Why Sync is failing
Hiya!! I found the cause of this issue... if u go to ur msn (windows live) on ur pc and get rid of your display picture then the sync will be successful on your PDA, however if u display a pic and then sync, it will fail... it doesnt seem to like exporting ur picture, however it will be down I think as Windows Live is merging with Xbox Live in may on the xbox 360, so it may be something which is being done at the moment! otherwise everything else will sync.
sync works for me now, with or without display pic
maybe it was a server problem...
Thanx man.. Your suggestion really worked. Also, do you know how i can merge my contacts? I have duplicate.. I tried renaming all of the contacts in MSN on my PC to suit my outlook.. but it still shows up different...
I found a way to merge contacts. Make sure the Name, IM and Email are exactly the same. And delete your windows live account, and then resync it again. it should then merge everything.
you could also try clearing the ie cache and temp files if you are not saving them the the storage card. I had the same problem I could only sync after a soft reset and usually only once. I noticed my mem had dropped to around 25mB or so when it is usually around 41mB. After clearing cache and temp files I very rarely have that problem and if I do, I free up more mem. Hope that helps

I have problems with syncing my live contacts with Outlook 2007 in Vista..
Live contacts just don`t appier in the outlook, when I re-flash my device, I loose all the live contacts but on the next windows live sync my contacts just appier back with phone numbers and everything.. I wonder where is all the data keept, phone numbers and everything.. if it isn`t in outlook 2007 ??
I had this problem too! Will try what you suggested. Strange that it works for a few hours then stops. I found that signing in and out helped.
Does anyone know how to change the reply to address?
I get this error too but it still downloads my emails ? I think thats strange and alot of the time Messenger wont signin I get some weird error about it.
It's stopped working for me. Deleted my profile pic, still no joy.

Please don't shout at me coz I've Googled and searched this forum but can't see anyone with my problem (which I guess means it is my problem?)
I can sync wirelessly with our hosted Exchange server and Calendar items and Contact items sync from Exchange to my Black 2.0 Tytn OK. Emails however do not. They just appear to be ignored completely. I think it worked OK with Black 1.2 but I can't be absolutely sure.
Is there some email setting I have missed somewhere?
what's wrong with the WLM synchronisation? :S it's been doing this for days now.
EDIT: for me, i can seem to get my WLM to fully synchronise if i don't synchronise my email.. i think the problem (in my case) is because my Live messenger address is not a real email address (it's a forwarding address which is linked to my real email account).
I'll toss my hat in the ring alongside those getting this 'synchronization failed' error. I receive all my emails ok, however messenger shows all my contacts as offline (but I must be logged in, as people can message me), and my display name only shows my email address. This has only begun in the last day or so. I am running Windows Mobile 6 Black 2.5 Telstra.
I have tried a soft reset and also using 'switch account' to see if that would recreate the connection, but no go. I'm not sure if it covers mobiles but Microsofts MSN status pages shows no known issues.
A colleague of mine has his working fine on the same device/software I have.
This is driving me nuts!
I find if I clear the password and login again it works.
Activesync has very nice logging, does anyone know how to turn logging on for Live?
I have my domain hosted by live i.e. my mx records point to live. Wonder if this kind of account is a problem?
hi everyone,
i've got this error now which says "Cannot synchronize with Outlook profile you are using, because a different profile was previously set up or the profile is password-protected
Please open Outlook using the appropriate profile."
please please please how do i solve this i've not been able to sink my contacts, calender and notes back in and its going to destroy my week if i dont resolve this problem.
thanks so much in advance,

Well, sync errors like this typically occur at one of 2 places. EITHER the connection between Outlook/Exchange and ActiveSync OR between ActiveSync and your Device.
What have your tried so far? Simply removing the device from ActiveSync on the main computer solves this error most often. The other deeper, yet common fix is to uninstall BOTH Outlook and ActiveSync, then reboot and re-install and recreate the device profile with ActiveSync.
Hope this helps.
Thanks for your reply Nate,
I've tried removing the partnership from activesync and deleting active sync from my computer and restarting. But that does not cure the problem
If i completly uninstall office and activesync. Will my contacts be there when i reinstall? Also, this is rather stupid, but if i uninstall office, my documents will still be on my harddrive right?
thanks in advance.
Jason
i'm willing to uninstall office, please can someone tell me how to backup my contacts, calender and notes.
or will this remain on my computer and once i reinstall office it will go back in.
stab in the dark .....
have you actually fully reset your device and also turned your pc off and restarted it fully....???
i have similar problems using outlook, but always find a reset of either of both devices cures the problem.....
yes i have done that.
its now a outlook problem isnt it?
how do i delete profiles from outlook 2007? maybe that will solve it.
please anyone, feel free to give me ideas on how to solve this
Correct, it seems like an Outlook issue now. My experience with Outlook 2007 is limited so I'm not sure if it follows the rules of previous versions, but in the past ALL of your outlook information is stored in 1 file with a file extension of .pst. Run a search on your PC for a *.pst file and tell us what it finds. Assuming that you find one then O2007 follows the same conventions as earlier versions. If you find multiple, then save them all. Bear in mind that the actual email account settings are kept separately from the .pst file and you will have to either export/import them or just recreate the email account after reinstall.
Uninstall Outlook/Office and then REBOOT! Then Re-install.Go into outlook 1st and go through the initial email account setup, then run a search for .pst files again and drop the most current down over top of the one newly created with the re-install.
Let us know how it goes and remember to go slow.
If you google for the error code 8503001f and also the other one you posted about, 85010014, they both point to errors within microsoft outlook itself - one possibility is due to upgrading outlook and having/creating multiple profiles.
There are too many links to post but I saw a few which appeared to include good solutions - some of these are direct from the microsoft support site.
Don't know if this helps but I found thousands of hits with what appears to be your problem.

For Profiles in Outlook 2007:
Control Panel > Mail > Profiles
BACK UP YOUR MAIL!!
File > Import / Export.
Export as file
PST
Save it.
Now delete all profiles in Control Panel > Mail > Profiles
Then just create one profile and call it outlook
Then restore your data.
thanks so much for the reply guys.
i dont know what the hell is up with outlook but after uninstalling active sync and removing my email account from outlook it syncing again.
very fustrating and thanks you guys again for your input. its great to know people like you guys are here to help.
cheers again

p.s. i think its because i upgraded from office 2003 to 2007 that cause so many conflicts.
Anyone got a CAB file for ActiveSync? or could someone create one for me please? I have installed Farias/DrP's ROM, their ActiveSync install won't sync up with my server, I have installed other WM6.1 ROMS which all work ok, I've tried a different Radio ROM just in case but it still doesnt seem to want to work. I like the ROM and would rather just replace the dodgy app if possible.
would suggest re-installing activesync on computer than stuffing around with your hermes. I've got Dr p/Faria's rom running and have no sync problems. As a point I generally try active sync after a flash but if it doesnt work re-install and delete all paired files. This wont get rid of your contacts because they're stored in outlook. Just remember NOT to replace all items on the computer when prompted as THIS MAY DELETE ALL CONTACTS. As I've said I've had no trouble syncing however. I've found that leaving the hermes on too long and not doing anything may corrupt the os resulting in me having to hard reset or reflash. Be warned.... Hope this helps..
I'm having somewhat of the same problem but my active sync sync's but when I look in my out box my mail is still there so every time I sync it continues to resend the mail that's in the outbox. So what I've been doing is deleting it out of the outbox once it's done syncing. Also I've noticed that when active sync is running it goes to a all white screen with a black outline around the screen never seen that before I’m use to seeing the green circular motion movement. "(I use ActiveSync to use the over the air PUSH capability from my corporate server )" Me too.
OK maybe I wasn't clear enough.... ActiveSync works if you have a cable plugged in e.g. you can set up a pairing with your PC and the Device over a wire, I use ActiveSync to use the over the air PUSH capability from my corporate server thus the cable is surplus to requirements unless I need to charge the device. There is another person in the Faria/DrP thread with the same problem.
Mods please delete, server probs at work, don't need this any more....
Tony, talk to your IT department, sounds like a server problem
It was, this is why I asked the thread to be deleted..

I too could use a cab installation of activesync. does that even exist out there or is it something that is only ever cooked directly into the ROM? I love my current rom except for the ASync errors. Anyone with a cab, please speak up now...
No Activesync
I too am having problems connecting my phone to WMDC on a recently purchased imate 8502, I upgraded the rom to WM6.1 and the phone is no longer recognised by pc at all. Having looked through the programs on the phone and browsed the directories on the device, I cannot find activesync on the phone at all! The only hint is an empty folder, but there is no executable for activesync anywhere, which would probably explain why so many ppl can't get thier 8502's to connect to thier pc's after upgrading!
We need an activesync.cab to install!
Hi everybody,
the switch from my TyTN II to the Rhodium was far from painless so far. I use the T-Mobile German version with the 6.5 upgrade. Running on 6.1, the Rhodium was far from stable and I was fearing I'd break my back cover from having to remove it so often for a reset. But even the update to 6.5 didn't remove the following error:
After Syncing I find in my calendar (mainly on the current day) one or more rows of identical, empty appointments that cannot be deleted, or rather, that seem to show up again and again when deleted.
The trial version of "Duplicates Remover" then shows literally hundreds of identical appointments.
Does anybody know a fix for this, or a hint where the bug could originate?
I have mixed experiences with Active Sync as I'm synchronizing with two PCs, so appointments and contacts have been deleted/are cropping up again long after deletion. I wish it was as effortless as HotSync on my Palm used to be ...
I'm sorry if this question has been asked and answered before, but forum search didn't come up with anything useful (maybe I've used the wrong search terms).
Thanks, Robert
*bump*
anybody have the same issue? hundreds of empty appointments on the day I start sync? I talked to T-Mo support and they didn't know the problem.

I've noticed the same issue recently with my HTC diamond 2 after upgrading to Outlook 2007 SP2 on a Windows XP laptop with ActiveSync 4.5.0 (Build 5096). The problem did not exist previously when running Outlook 2003 and syncing the same laptop and device.
Also have the device syncing with a Vista laptop also running the Outlook 2007 SP2 without issue. The difference is that vista uses the mobile device centre software instead of ActiveSync. I've searched the internet for a patch or update to ActiveSync for Windows XP but it seems I'm running the most update version.
I have the same problem with windows live, outlook, plaxo, and messenger, the problem is messenger really doesn't like you messing with the contacts and pictures attached to messenger just aren't really supported and are more or less user defined by the contact... so you get multiples... then syncing can create a info loop... still working on the problem but as for the calender what I found is to go and remove the repeating occurance... bet this is where the problem lies I have loads of them! I ended up deleting the folder and starting over! I created a dummy folder set it as my default and then deleted the corrupted one... I have found no program that changes all repeating events to one time events...
<fingers crossed>
At the moment I seem to be rid of most of the duplicates. In the end I had to do another hard reset on the mobile device, clear the duplicates from Outlook (2003), then sync. I have not, as I had before, synced the HTC with a second PC.
</fingers crossed>
Active Sync is really an embararssing piece of software ...

I have a similar issue. Got a Diamond 2, at home I run Win7 with Mobile Center but at work I have XP SP2 with AS. I get tons of blank appointments being created. If I disable calendar syncing, I get hundreds of blank contacts instead!!!
I use no messenger and whatnot - anyone has found a solution?
For me it was a problem of duplicate appointments and contacts.
I no longer synch using the wmdc now. Instead I just use the Microsoft My Phone service.
Notwithstanding, it would be great if microsoft could sort out the messy wmdc...
Yes, but the problem is that I deleted all my appointments and I've no duplicate contacts,a nd the problem persists... so it can't be that.
Also, no use for me using MyPhone as I don't use AS purely for backing up my device but also to sync it (surprise!) with my job calendar etc...
Duplicates...
I've had all these issues and my only work-a-round has been to make a backup .pst copy of my contacts/calendar at work (XPSP2-Outllook 2003), making sure that when sync is done, I delate the lot, and re-import them from the backup. This seems to solve the problem. Also recurring appointments can sometimes stuff up as they are interprited as 18hrs and not just 12hrs, which in turn can cause conflicts.
From what I can see it is an active sync issue that I have not come accross with Vista/7 & Outlook 2007+. With the different ways that these applications handle appointments/calanders I'm not surprised as to the corruption/dupplication of the data.
Another alternative option is to use PIM Banckup/SPB or other, let AS do it's thing, then over-right the phone with the backup copy, and let it re-sync the corrections.
I've triedto find something on MS helpdesk and leaderboards, but so far no success.
Hi everybody.
Did anybody get a solution (definitive, easy, fast) for this issue?
My sync was running nice and without problems for a long time. The same smartphone syncing with a couple notebooks... but I also starting get this same problem some weeks ago.
I've been hardly looking for how to fix it but I didn't find a solution so far.
Tks2all.
Over 3000 empty contacts in Outlook 2007 under Win 7
I have a similar problem, and haven't yet found any specific solutiion. I add contacts and calendar items to both my home installation (Outlook 2003 under WinXP x64) and my work installation (Outlook 2007 under Windows 7). I was able originally to sync my Samsung OmniaPro B7330 successfully with both systems (using ActiveSync 4.5 and Windows 7 Sync Center, respectively). The problems started when I tried to resync with my work system after adding a couple of thousand contacts to the Samsung which were on my home system. When I tried to resync there were no error messages, but I had to interrupt and resume once, because it took so long. Now I have over 3000 empty contacts on the work (Windows 7) system. The contacts still look correct on the Samsung and on the home (XP) system.
How can I get these contacts correctly on the work system?
Iam afraid to delete the empty ones for fear that the next sync will wipe the corresponding contacts with information from the smartphone.
The calendar entries seem to be working OK.
Any ideas or pointers to other possible sources of info on this problem?
P.S. If I observe the Outlook 2007 Contacts page while the contacts are synchronizing, it looks like there are 2 phases:
During the first phase, I can see the desired contacts being added to Outlook, one by one.
At the end of that phase, they somehow all disappear.
Windows Sync Center eventually says that the sync was "completed", without showing any error messages. Is there some way to get Winows Mobile Device Center to produce a logfile, so I can get a better idea of what is going on?
P.P.S. The last sync seems to have finally gotten the new contacts to appear in Outlook 2007. However, I still have over 3000 empty contacts. Can I safely delete them?
P.P.P.S. I went ahead and deleted them. I now have somewhat less than 3,000 contacts, with information that looks reasonable. Looking at my "Deleted Items" folder in Outlook, I see a bit over 12,000 contacts?!
Why this? In addition to the 3,000+ empty contacts I just deleted, there are 3 copies of each contact with information! The Outlook "Sync issues" folder conatins a string of messages distributed over the last week, about half of which mention "Conflict Resolution". I am now concerned that Outlook or WMDC may have done violence to some of the data in my contacts in the attempt tpo "auto-resolve" conflicts.
I have this problem if I sync via ActiveSync at work and Device Center at home.
I've learned the hard way that those two just don't play nice together. I keep praying that one day they'll kiss and make up...

I also have this problem syncing my HD2 with 2 PCs, one with Outlook 2007 and the other Outlook 2010.
All ran fine for a while syncing from my Work PC to HD2, and from HD2 to my Home PC. Out of the blue it failed to sync properly with my Work PC and 2,000 half-hour blank appointments were created at the current time and day. To make matters worse, most birthdays disappeared in 2011 and lots of entries were duplicated.
I spent a whole morning deleting the 2,000 blank entries and hundreds of duplicate appointments. Listing the annual events I found most were set to repeat every 12 years which explained why birthdays had disappeared! I've corrected this and things seem fine now with my Work PC, but I'm wary about syncing with my Home PC in case all goes wrong again!
Any solutions?
My friend has same problem with his HD2 (Win7, Outlook 2007, 2010).
With sync the Outlook make half hours appointments in the current day. Interesting: when I disconnect the phone, the empty appointments are dont cancelling.
Same problem here (around 150 of half-hour appointments in one day).
I am using HTC Diamond since 2008, the problem started in July 2011 when syncing with work computer.
I have no idea how to fix it.
I can only offer some information on what's going on.
When syncing, the first thing that happens is empty appointments are all created on today. These are then populated, setting the date, time, subject etc. So it sounds like your sync only gets up to creating the empty appointments and doesn't finish setting the information.
Sorry I can't be more help - unless the process is not allowing to be completed.
