Up until a few weeks ago I could sync my new Treo 700 just fine.  Then is
stopped working.
It would recognize the device, but just say "connecting...." and hang.
I reinstalled AS4.1 and now is recognizes the device, connects (after a

Hey guys,
just tried to install ActiveSyn 4.2 beta on a XP SP2 machine with AS 4.1
but the install routine tells me that another version of AS is already
installed and thus AS 4.2 cannot be installed. I need to de-installt AS

For the past 3 days my Dell Axim v50 and AS 4.1 sync fine, but the AS Screen
will not maximize.  Nor, will it maximize when the PDA is not cradled and I
launch AS.  What gives?  Any ideas?
Also, whenever I disconnect my Dell AS puts out an error message.  Has this

I can't copy files from the Pocket_PC to the PC. It seems it is working good
when it converts the files but at the end no file has been copied. It does
not matter which is the file txt, jpg, zip, it does not work.
Copying from PC to PDA it works fine.

The "Leave feedback on ActiveSync 4.2 Beta Preview" clearly states:
"Post any questions or problems you have to the
microsoft.public.pocketpc.activesync.beta either through a newsgroup reader
or on the Microsoft Discussion Groups site."

I'm trying to install MobSync 0.9.4 on a user's pc (Windows XP) that
doesn't have administrative privileges.  The user has very few
privileges it seems, as I wasn't able to save files to C:\ (root).  I
was able to write to the user's Desktop however.

I have upgraded to AS 4.2 and since that I have the following problem: from
time to time it says that the device's name is in use and it makes you change
it in order to sync it. It happens in the two PCs where I connect it, home
and work, with XP SP2 and SP1 respectively. It ...

I have installed activesync 4.2 beta on my win xp sp2 machine. Now if I
connect and disconnect my pocket PC multile times, suddenly the pocket PC
stops connectiing. The only way to solve the issue is to reboot the PC. I did
not face this problem with activesync 4.1.

I can connect to my work laptop (WinXP)which is connected to the work
network after a cold boot . When I disconnect the Hx4705 from my
laptop, and reconnect later, it does not work. Nothing, zilch not even
a attempt at connect. I checked the connection with Activesync and

This is I-Mate Jam PDA2K Pocket PC
running Win Mobile 2003 2nd Edition v4.21.1008 (Build 15045.2.6.0)
It is connected to a desktop PC running Win XPPro + SP2 with
Active Sync 4.1

I just found this on some blog:
"Remote PC Sync (via Wifi or LAN) has been
removed due to Enterprise customer feedback around security issues. "
(http://www.brighthand.com/default.asp?newsID=2727)

Worth upgrading? Or wait for final version?
4.1 sure is buggy, even worse than my previous 3.8. Will 4.2 finally be an
improvement in the weakest part of Windows Mobile (Activestync)?

Dell Axim X51v.  Running Active Sync 4.1. Desktop runs ISA 2000 client. The
only way to get active sync to work is to disable the ISA client. Is there
any other way to allow activesync with the firewall client on?
TIA

I've seen this come up a few times, but find it so frustrating i have to
leave a mention myself.
Why on earth would you not allow WiFi active sync on a mobile device that
has wifi?

I am exporting .cdb files to a Dell Axim X51v. The files are between 52k and
above in size (35 in total). With activesync 4.1, on one of the large files,
AS 4.1 would time out. So with the release of 4.2 I thought the problem would
be resolved. It wasn't. I would have thought ...
