k ill give it a try im crossing my fingers cause this is the only bad expericance with vista so far. besides it not letting me install windows media player..
It says update could not be installed because at least one windows componet required by windows mobile device center is missing. this is starting to piss me off
whats an alternative to activesync any free download ones? Cause i wanna upgrade my rom soon.

When connecting the artemis via usb vista installs the pocketpc-driver and mounts the filesystem into the workplace tree but you can't set it up via the new sync center. the device is just not in the list which makes it impossible to set up a syncing partnership. Any ideas?
glad
I does work. I sync my P3300 with Pre-RC1 5336, no problem. But you do have to download Windows Mobile Device Center. Neat program, looks much better than ActiveSync and does pretty much the same. Good luck!

Hmm, Windows Mobile Device Center is a fix part of the final version. I use the business version @work...
u need to download WMDC even in the final version. Vista retail wont sync without the download.

How right you are... To be exact... The WM Device Center is already there but you need the beta3 driver update to be compatible with the newest devices. Get it here.
glad
Update does not work...
Any time i try to install the Mobile Device Center Update i get an error message aborting the installation process:
"The update could not be installed because at least one Windows Component required by Windows Mobile Device Center is missing"...
Unfortunately, Vista won't tell which component that is. Any Ideas? I'm using Windows Vista Business N

Maybe the N-version (without MP11) misses a component or something... or try installing windows updates and try again. I suggest you use the final version, don't you (in fact it shouldn't matter...)?
Yes i guess you're right gladiac. It is the Final Version and even the Vista Experience Rate is unrated, because Vista can't perform the Test without the Media Components It is not only Media Player that is missing i think. Bluetooth File Transfer works, so it is not that urgent. Luckily the University i visit is part of the MSDNAA, which should provide me with Vista Ultimate in the next weeks. Hopefully Synching will run then ;P Windows Updates do not work... Well they work but don't fix the Problem
Thanks for your help
was wondering if anyone is having problems with bluetooth syncing?
Hi All, I have a Hermes with WM6 and have just installed Vista Ultimate and am not able to get my Hermes to Sync.
Vista claims it does not recognize the device . . . I have tried via USB & Bluetooth. Any ideas how I can resolve this?
Thanks in advance.
Same thing happen to me the first time what ROM did you use? I just use Fun key rom and everything works great.
Do you have Windows Mobile Device Center installed?

Even I have wmc6.1 installed, my computer doesn't recognize my Hermes starting from build 1921, it opens it as a storage device only, but no syncing !!, downloading Starbase's ROM right now and will try...
Vista has issues with everything its a pile of *beep*
I am also having similar issues. I just got my new laptop that runs Windows Vista Business and I can get WMDC 6.1 to sync and see the device but it will not load my contacts and calendar onto the latop. Its becoming very frustrating and I'm not sure why it won't sync the data. I'm running the vp3g 3.62 rom on my phone.
Try this...
Click...
Start-> Settings -> Connections -> USB to PC
Uncheck the box "Enable advanced network functionality"
if it is already unchecked, then try checking it. That seemed to work for me when I had problems with WMDC.
Still the same results for me. My phone can connect to the computer... it just won't sync the data.

Install Windows Mobile Device Center for Vista from Windows Download center. Then everything will work fine. It is my experience.
One thing that might help from my experience:
Take out the microSD card. I had some problems with it inside my phone - no sync. When I took it out everything worked fine! Then I formated my card and problem was solved... don't know what it was all about.
Last month i uninstalled the wmdc and then reinstalled it... i got the connection right but not always...
THen last week i had to reinstall windows and then when i did and update , i got an all new WMDC. This version works fine and good... No issues now...
I have the latest WMDC and have tried everything so far mentioned still and still no sync!?!
Very frustrating.
Any other ideas? Am I missing something really basic.
I have done something right!
After downloading WMDC finally the Jasjam was recognised however when trying to sync the following error occurs:
"Cannot connect with current connection settings. To check your connection settings, select Start, then Settings, then Connections."
So i went to that part of my phone but have no idea what I should be checking!
All help with this is much appreciated (if only things would just work )
It's been some days since I can't sync my dash using ActiveSync. It won't recognize the device.
I've been trying to change the advanced networking setting in the USB to PC menu, but I can't open it.
There is an error that says: "The settings could not be opened".
I want to avoid the hard-reset. Any ideas on how to access the connections menu to restore the syncing functionality?
Are you using windows xp or windows vista?
I've tried both of them, and none works. I've also read some reports that this has happened before, but didn't find a solution for it.
I'm hoping someone has a solution since a hard-reset is such a pain in the as*. I haven't upgraded rose roms just because the time invested in my current setup is way too much.
Simple fix just dont download Active Sync your missing something else that needs to install the Usb Drivers for your phone to??? You need to download the Windows Mobile Device Center 6.1. http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/en-us/help/synchronize/device-center.mspx This was the easiest way to solve my problems.

If that was the problem... but as I said I can't open the USP to PC settings page no matter what, and that's the first thing I'd like to get working.

Sounds like a hard-reset moment if you can't open USB to PC, then there could be other issues anyway... Bite the bullet hard-reset be up and running in no time and one step closer to working out what the issue is or it will be solved.

3 replies and none of them helpful... oh dear
it's hard to help really becuase you havent given us mich info....what ROM are you running, how are you trying to connect....did it connect to the same PC before windows7 was put on there?
you might need to change the ADVANCED NETWORK seetings on your PPC
and check the connection seetings in WMDC, and check your firewall settings
problem solved
tanks for all i go to settings and connections and usb to pc
and i desacived the option: enable advanced networf functionality
tanks for replay
Sorry but could you be more specific on how you did that? I am facing the same problem. Thanks in advance
this part=> "and i desacived the option: enable advanced networf functionality"
first exuse for my bad english
ok i repeat the method
1-go to settings
2-go to connexions tab(its 3 tabersonnel,systeme and connections)
3-you find the icon named UDB to PC yoy click on this icon
4- you wille receive one page that indicate :active.......
5-you desactive this option
goog luck
well..ermmm... Thank you.
more info:-
1. on PPC; click Start-Settings-Connections-Usb to PC
2. Uncheck the "Enable advanced network funtionality'
This works for me.

Hey dude can u teell me from where did u get wm 7
Its not WM7, its Windows 7, the public beta of the operating system next in line after Vista. Its closed now unfortunately so you'll have to wait for Beta 2 or RC1.
I have and issue and hope someone has figured it out. Previously with XP Pro and active sync no problems downloading ROMS and flashing. Now with win 7 and wm device center I can sync and explore the device. But when I try to flash it says ther is not a connection but it is connected. Any advice.
