I had been using 2 computers with xp to sync with until now,, but now I have replaced one of the XP's with Vista.. Any idea whether I can eventually sync information off both PC's.. because of the different versions of Activesync involved?
I dont know, but just do it and let us know if it will work! Did you go a search in this forum to see if it was discussed already?
Works for me
I have a similar set-up (Vista at home, XP at work).
I can sync my Hermes just fine, although i am missing the "sync by category" option the old Active sync 3.8 offered.
Regards,
ARo
I have the same set-up at home..vista laptop,,xp desktop. I only flash with the xp machine and sync with the vista machine. I just don't set up a partnership with the xp machine. Less confusing for me.
I use both. XPSP3 to flash and Vista Ultimate SP1 to sync my contacts, Calendar, ect with.
Could someone actually SYNC data with one device (WM 6.1) between 2 computers - one having XP and ActiveSync, another having Vista and WMDC?
Thx!

Hi All,
A quick question to those who know..
I'm considering updating to the WM5 ROM we have on wiki. The PC I have at home is XP SP2 with Active-Sync 4 which works lovely with my MDA3 1.40.00 ROM..
Trouble is, my Work PC uses Windows 2000 Professional and guess what, this is the PC I need to Sync to..
I think I already know the answer but well I, if I install Active-Sync 4 on my Windows 2000 Professional, will I be able to Sync my Calendar, etc..
Many thanks to you all..

It works still fine with Office 2007 ..... MS did a nice job.
Im using Vista ultimate & everything was fine with WMDC 6 until i upgraded to WM6 on my trinity, now when i plug my trinity into USB WMDC says theres been a problem & needs to close! WTF?
i've tried new 6.1 but same problems!
any ideas?
try with the memory card removed....sounds mad...just a hunch ;-)
let me know how u get on.
Still can't run RUU in Vista and flash, though....:-(
Does anyone know if Microsoft will ever enable synch with Vista Windows Calendar? I don't have Outlook 2007, I don't really want it and I don't like Outlook 2003. I really like the basic vista apps.
Thanks
Can the Mobile Device Center also be used with Win XP or only with Vista ?

only vista. Activesync for XP
Hi,
i am trying to sync by bluethooth in vista but i cant do in XP it works fine but now i cant
i have install windows mobile device center in XP i use active sync but in vista doesnt work....
someone can help me?
have someone sync WM6 with vista by bluetooth???
thx
Yep, mine works...
I have actually used two different bluetooth adapters in Vista 64bit, and both work. The first one was that crappy Logitech MX900 mouse one (the drivers they give you are sucky at best). The second one is my new Anycom USB 200 one (12.99€), which has very good Vista drivers already.
What you have to do is, to pair your device first, which the WMDC installed and running (best if you already synced via usb to make sure it works). Then pair your pc (from your mobile). Then it should tell you (instead of COM port) that the protocol Active Sync is available... Then you should be ready to go.
But make sure youre BT stack supports COM (usually all do), else it will not work
Problem is quite simple, vista rarely (lets say once in 10 days) "see" the connected BA, since I dont need much of syncing I didnt investigate that too much but if someone solved the problem I would appreciate eventual help.
(its WM6)
ty & BR to community !
suprisingly BA synced with the vista like the charm when I used BT...
Had so much problems with BT sync before with XP and WM 2003 and 5 that I didnt even think about trying that with vista
Anyway BT sync works GREAT for me (WM6 and Vista) and that is the nice solution.
Do you use the Windows Vista cync centre, or do you still have to use activesync?
In my experience both the cync centre and Windows Vista have no problem seeing my blue angel, but when I change any of my contact/task/calendar information, even though it looks like the two are syncing, no changes are made to either device as necessary.
hi, its was an old issue but as far as i could remember, i used to install nod 32 internet security suite which had firewall inside (wasnt mentioned anywhere in the installation) which silently blocked my BA sync... found it by pure coincidence, after the uninstall everthing synced perfectly...
My TP2 will not sync with my note book with any rom but energy rom 28014 17th dec 2009. or DA_g rom 28205 30th dec 2009.
i have tried all the tricks, remove the Windows Mobile Device Ctr, re load Windows Mobile Device Ctr...
hard rest my device...
i can get connected to my notebook, however the sync never start... if i force it from pda or PC it will try for a long time and then error...
can some one help me out please...
solved i changed back the the older radio..
i have windows 7 ultimate 64 and i had to download the new drivers. then it worked fine.
sync works for me on 2 different win7 machines. you might have a firewall issue.
I can confirm that the issue is not Windows 7. I use two different computers with Windows 7 32-bit. (One is an Apple Macbook Pro). There could be a lot of reasons for your lack of connection. Did you reboot yet?. Do you have another machine to test the sync just to narrow it down to the device versus the computer?
When you "tried all the tricks" did that include the USB-to-PC settings on the phone?
Settings>Connections>USB-to-PC then un-check "Ask me about USB connection" and maybe (can't hurt) un-check "Enable faster data connection"?
These are well-known (and not always necessary), but just thought I'd mention them anyway.
guys it sync with one.. eh two roms but the rest it do not do anything, PDA is connected to the PC but do not sync at all.. rebood, hard reset, remove partnerships.... i have even stopped all the other startup services on my PC....
sounds crazy... but its happening... only energy 17th dec and da_g 5th jan roms are working....
i have fleshed the roms few times each... last thing i will do is to reload my windoas 7 as my notebook its upgrade OS so need to load the vista first and then windaows 7...
yee ha.... i changed my radio to 4.49.25.17 and all my issues with sync were gone.... i am syncing energy rom with my PC right now.... took me 2 over weeks but at last.....

Interesting...USB connectivity is part of the radio package? Can anybody confirm/refute that?
