Hi TP2-ers!
Since using my TP2, ActiveSync continuously syncs it with my PC. When I used AS with my old PDA (QTEK 2020i) I could select manual sync, but this doesn't seem to be possible when connecting a WM6 device.
I tried all the tricks (changing registry entries Continuously Update and Update on docking to 0), the exchange server trick to enable the AS schedule button and setting it to manually, all to no avail...
I know of tools like ActiveSync Toggle, but I do not want to disable AS, I just want to sync manually when I think it's time to sync!
Has anybody out there been able to disable the autosync in AS in combination with the TP2?
Thank you very much for your reply in advance!
Kind regards,
Piet

I have an MDAIII with blackberry instant email, i am not using BES.
ActiveSync will not allow me to tick the Calender box to sync with my PPC?
I can get it to allow me to tick it by going in to sync with server, then removing this option but as soon as it syncs (USB) the option is removed and it will not allow me to sync my calender from Outlook?
I have tried AS 4 to no avail, i am using Outlook 2003 and this works fine with my MS Smartphone, what can i check or alter on the PPC?
I have also tried re-installing the latest TM ROM but to no avail, ditto deleting the partnerships in ActiveSync!
Any pointers would be GREATLY appreciated!!

hi
Go in programme control of Zone alarm and give full (server) access to active sync and to any programme associated with active sync and outlook express, for which u have to see details off all the programmes in the list on zonealaram programme control menu.
if this does not works or is too much
Try uninstalling fire wall and deleting all programme files for zone alarm then reinstall it with working active sync and give full access to all active sync related pop ups
Hope this helps

Hi,
I have a question about synchronizing Artemis and Outlook (2003) on PC.
When I change something in Task or Appointment (reminder, due time...) in Outlook on PC - Activesync immediately synchronize PC with Pocket Outlook on Artemis. But if I change something in contacts or tasks on Artemis it doesn't synchronize. I must run synchronization manually or simply disconnect and reconnect device with USB cable.
Could You tell me if it works the same way in your PDAs? Of course if anybody knows how to change this I will be grateful.
I remember that with my old Asus A716 and Windows 2003 every change in pocket database was synchronized with PC at once.
Maybe somebody have a few minutes however?
Just add a task to pocket, then remove it and write her if it caused immediate synchronization with PC, please.
Tested
Hiya,
i have just tested this and found the same results as you did, even when i closed and reopened Outlook the change did not appear.

Thanks,
I didn't noticed that - I will try it. If it's normal WM5 behavior and if user can't change this it's not very convenient...
In fact, when I closed Mobile Outlook on PDA, and then started it again - synchronization icon was grayed out and even if I clicked synchronize button on PDA - synchronization didn't started. I think you must disconnect and reconnect USB cable -> Mobile Outlook starts automatically and then synchronization starts too.
But look at this:
I connected PDA to PC, then I changed one of my tasks due date (synchronization on PC didn't start), then I disconnected device and I had one task with two due dates - first on PDA, second on PC.
I don't know if it is standard on WM5 with ActiveSync 4.5, bug in WM5 or AS, or bug in Artemis. Or maybe we have something in our systems messed up?
Greetings and thanks for your help
I have a Dopod 838Pro and I have used a played with a number of different ROMS and have stuck with Schap's WM6 and am currently running:
Schap's 4.31
Radio: 1.54.30.10
The problem. For some reason which I can't tie down, the MMS settings continue to return to the default vpix.com/servlets..... settings. Being that I don't send or receive alot of MMS it's not a huge problem, but it's got me buggered why it does this.
I sync between two PC's, one XP with Active Sync 4.5.0 (which then uses Groupwise PDA connect to sync with Groupwise) then at home I have Vista with it's Mobile Centre syncing up with Outlook 2007.
For no good reason every now and again the Vista Machine decides it doesn't know about about the PDA anymore and decides it's a new device. Being that this is random, by the time I notice the PDA has lost all contacts and calendar. I'm not sure if this is before or after I put it into the dock, but I can confirm that it is before I confirm anything on the PC.
I know that if you delete a "profile" thing on the PDA it will loose all information associated (including the calendar and contacts etc), but I'm not doing that.
Again the rare use of MMS means I can't pin down the MMS settings change to the PDA loosing sync. The other strange thing is that if I change the settings in the "Default" MMS server settings, when they revert back to the vpix settings, I am sort of screwed, but if I create an "Optus" profile then set that as default, when the vpix thing happens it simply re-selects the default profile, the upside being I can just re-select the Optus one and away I go.
So does anyone understand my ramblings or has anyone had a similar problem? Is it Vista? Is it the ROM? Is it a dodgy piece of hardware? Any ideas are welcome.
I have a few email accounts set up in pocket-outlook, but always have to send/receive each separately when I have a wifi and also have to manually make ActiveSync sync to mail2web, why doesn't it do automatically? it would save a lot of effort..
I've been looking through all the settings, there's no option to get this done automatically :/ it's quite a drag..
can anyone point me in the right direction?
hmm
interested in this topic, with schaps advance config you can set to connect automatically to gprs, however ... wifi not so sure. Latest MSN with no IM also wakes up GPRS connection upon boot, and in a way activates the synchronisation of my web2mail exchange server. Wifi is a lot 'cheaper' hehe ... and I believe stock shipped ROM is able to do it at least on my bro's polaris wifi stays on after a soft reset, and doesn't die when in sleep mode either.
Will be keen for someone to have a cab file for this,....
i have the same issue.
what i did was to do it kind of half-automated:
create a shortcut to start sync so that you do not have to go into your email application and start sync from there.
Code:
20#"\Windows\tmail.exe" -service "Privat" -Sync
if you have more email accounts consider using mortscript.
still not sure how to start sync once a wifi connection has been established.
