Is Anyone aware of any software utilities for the Pocket PC, for Tracking your ebay auctions(I've seen Palm and Smartphone versions) as ebay dont seem to offer a PDA version of their Site ?
Can obviously still view Ebay fine on PDA, but was looking for something simpler and quicker.
Abidia Wireless is exactly what you need and best of all it is free as well.
http://www.abidia.com/p2-46.html and click on the PPC[2000/2002/2003] link on the left hand side.
Xcellent, thanks
Hi
I just installed Abidia, the items Ive won is incorrectly showing items Im watching, and using the search, all the current bid prices are wrong. The images are not displaying, although they have downloaded as I can find them with the file manager, finally the first letter is missing on the descriptions. Does the software really work?
What are the benifits of paying for this service, as all the functionality is there already (although not working for me), will it stop "working" after a few days if I dont subscribe?
Cheers

It says $2.49 a month on the site, where is the free version?
Hi
It’s the same download I think, you just don’t enter the Serial number when configuring it. Maybe this is the problem.

this kinda sucks but there is no messenger nor hotmail capability in the new wm6 750 att official. this sucks!
Jeesh, just download it. It took me about 30 seconds to find it in this forum. Go to this thread and there are a bunch of builds of the program to install:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=334621&highlight=WLM+build+1400.CAB
do the downloads still exist? probably me, but i can't get anything to download and i'm already missing my windows live.
I spent more than 1 hour on the phone with Palm support last night (what a nightmare, I had two people asking me to hold for more than 15 min and then hanging up on me... finally got the answer from the third person after more than half hour on the phone with her).
Basically this is what I was told:
1) There is no Windows Live in the AT&T version. AT&T stripped it out. Period. They want you to use Xpress Mail and their Instant Messaging instead of Windows Live. Palm support installed WM6 on an unlocked Treo 750 and it DID have Windows Live, so it was AT&T's decision. However, Palm will try you to think that you don't get it by pointing the Mobile IM (AT&T's messenger), then by pointing you to Windows Live using a browser, then to Xpress Mail. It really got me angry until they got my point that Windows Live is NOT included in the upgrade.
2) I pointed out to Palm that the manual that you download with the Windows Mobile 6 upgrade HAS Windows Live in it (page 133 unless they replaced it). That really made me mad. The manual is called "treo750att_UGupdate.pdf" yet it contains features that are NOT included (such as Windows Live). Way to do quality check Palm...
3) I did the setup of Xpress Mail to Hotmail and I am having problems. The thing doesn't synchronize (it dies with an error saying that it cannot connect to the server).
If anybody has a chance to post in more places over the net with this information, please do it. I really feel cheated by upgrading to Windows Mobile 6 (there is no downgrade to version 5) and loosing Pocket MSN (which was now replaced by Windows Live and not included in the AT&T version).
Enough said. This is a bad image for those of us who have been waiting for almost a year for the upgrade. We get the upgrade and we are cheated (by AT&T and then Palm by not doing a quality check on the features they are publishing in their manual).
If they have replaced the manual and eliminated Windows Live from it (page 133), shot me an e-mail and I will send you a copy of the one I downloaded.
Hi,
could someone PLEASE post the original UK CoPilot software & maps that come installed on the 1gb SD card with the UK O2 Polaris. (*** please note, this is nothing illegal - I have my own O2 supplied license code an a credit card sized piece of plastic, I have just deleted the software from the SD card in error***)
many many thanks
iirc... the s/w and maps are on the supplied CoPilot CD.
if not... moan to O2 that the MSD is broken so they can supply a new one pre-loaded.
on the cd is just copilot central. could some one copy these cabs upto rapidshare please.....
THANKS gusnor
"It's good you have the CD like you say.
i have had a look at my CD the same as yours, it's on:
D:\program files\CoPilot\Central\CentralData"
As many others I've had the error message 86000107 during ActiveSync synchronization. In my case the cause was the multiple change of ringtones on the PPC using 'VIP PIM Ringtone' (used version, see signature). Think, the cause was not using the tool but having changed >100 contacts at once.
Solution in ActiveSync on PC:
Uncheck 'contacts' in synchronization options. Take care: This will delete your contacts on PPC and your individual assignments of ringtones to contacts, too!
Confirm Deletion.
Synchronize without having 'contacts' checked. Now everything could work fine.
Check the option 'contacts' again.
Synchronize having 'contacts' checked.
Now try assigning individual ringtones again. But check synchronization after each assignment. Perhaps you find out more (ringtone not proper? ...).
llok like it is Active sync 4.5 with Wm6.1 device
Look look like if many changes happend between two sync then Active sync 4.5 with wm6.1 produce error.

Sorry to double post the same thing but
I don’t think its to do with the amount of data changed to be synced ,I have desk top cradle at home and in the office and I stand the phone in the cradles to charge and even if I have not changed any data the issue still happens ??
But if I un check JUST THE CONTACTS let the device sync it is ok if I then check contacts its ok again ,that is until it see the other pc this happen when no data has been changed on pc1 pc1 or ppc
Actually, it is the amount of information, but it isn't just ringtones. If you have more than 100 of anything, it will cause this error. 100 contacts, 100 appointments, 100 tasks, 100 notes, anything. Since I have far more than 100 (1300 contacts, 397 appointments in the next 2 weeks), I get the error every time I switch from one computer to another. There is a solution, but nobody is as yet releasing it. Microsoft has acknowledged it is a WM 6.1 problem, and they have supposedly released a patch, AKU 1.2. But either it has not actually been released, or all the providers are currently evaluating it and won't admit it.
I wrote HTC earlier today inquiring about the AKU 1.2 patch, and got the response that my provider would have to release it for them to provide it on their site. My provider is US Cellular. I called tec support, the original rep had no idea what I was talking about, but he transferred me to the tec support specifically for smartphones, and talked with a rep. She also didn't know about the problem, but searched their knowledge base. She first tried to give me the "solution" many have tried (removing the relationship, etc.), then she found the AKU 1.2 patch I had told her was the real solution, and acknowledged this was the real answer. Unfortunately, she says that Microsoft has not yet released the patch. My complaint was noted, but she said there was nothing to do until Microsoft released the patch. My response was that they needed to call Microsoft and complain, just I was doing with US Cellular.
I suggest that everyone needs to start calling your provider and asking when the patch will be made available. We need to light some fires. If I'm the only unhappy customer, that's too bad. If they start getting lots of unhappy customers, perhaps they will become a little more motivated. I seem to have been the first unhappy person to have called US Cellular.
To cut down the time you have to stay on hold, if you are a US Cellular customer, here's the direct # for the tec center that deals with smartphones: 888-996-5499
BTW, one suggestion the rep had was to reinstall WM6.1. "It won't hurt anything". I installed 6.1 it at the beginning of the week, and just got everything the way I liked it, including installing TouchFlo 2D. Even with backing stuff up, this isn't the solution I'm looking for. Has anyone else tried this? Does anyone want to? Can anyone see a reason why installing it a second time would make it work, when Microsoft has acknowledged they have a problem?
... i faced the same problem... founding finally the best solution - promissed.
Just use Pocket Mirror Prof. for Calendar, Tasks and Contacts. Notes u can still use with AS.
It will sync 100% without probs, much faster and seeing what is left.
(contacts about 4500, 3500 calendar entries in 30 min.)
Cheers

So your solution is to buy a $50 program, instead of MS fixing their problem? This sounds like the spam another thread warning noobs was talking about.
MS have fixed the problem in later AKU releases - it's down to the vendor to implement the fix on within their ROM's...
The HTC Diamond has been fixed, the Pro will be fixed, the HD will not have the problem, etc. etc.
Grey handsets are the Dual, Cruise, TyTN 2 and x7510 - this all use AKU1.2 so shall be affected the the '107' problem.
If your handset is branded, you will need to petition them in order for the fix to be released.

First of all, I agree on that "MS needs to to fix that".
By the way, I talked to MS and I talked to SE, both linked to each others.
In differrent forums, the topic is hot without any proofen tested "YES it works".
For this reason, I open to pay an amount for a working solution.... and meanwhile, where other people are trying to fix and to fix and to fix.... I go riding my snowboard, knowing everything works
How is that....
error message
The '100' contacts error message cropped up on my touch pro today - Im back in xda land after my mini-s died when water entered my jacket pocket on my motorbike! The xda finally came back to life....but its backlight didnt.... ah well. I played with a google G1 for three weeks before crawling back to winmo...fancy that. Android is so much easier to use than windows mobile...shame about the hardware.... but soon..... soon...
Anyway im just about to reinstall the 690 contacts on my pro - Im only posting because I happen to notice I have 90 entries in my calendar! ooo close one!
Time goes by without a working solution.
Any help yet?
Hi Everyone,
A few days ago I bought a Palm Treo 500 on eBay which arrived yesterday. I assumed it would be just like my very worn out XDA Orbit, just with a keyboard and no touchscreen. It seems I was very much mistaken. The Palm runs WM6 Standard and I am stunned at all the missing features compared to the professional version.
Some current annoyances are:
Outlook wont let me specify more than one email account at the same domain. It says name already used.
I can't customise the home screen and or start menu.
Cannot edit repeating entry pattern in outlook
Cannot create word and excel docs
and on and on and on....
I always liked my Windows Mobile but I had only ever used the Pro version.
So, my question is:
What can I do about my Treo? Can I upgrade it to the Pro version. I know I can buy extra software to address some of my issues (docs to go, pocket informant etc) but spending on extra apps seems daft when I could have just bought something like an XDA mini with the pro OS in ROM.
Thanks for your help
Richard
Someone with the same device needs to dump his rom take out the drivers,
insert them into a WM 6.1 rom at best, create an image and upload it here.
Your Treo seems to be the only model without touchscreen.
I could not find a anything about your device on this site,yet.
Thank you for your reply. It looks like I will have to either accept the shortcomings and buy add-on software or stick it back on ebay and look for something different.
Cheers
Richard
