I have a XDA IIi and have been trying to install Activesync on the PC from the Companion disk. It seems to install some of the files and then just stops. It doesn't go to the next step where I can establish a connection and so I can't synchronise.
Version on the CD is 3.7.1 but I've also downloaded V 3.8 with the same result.
Anybody have any ideas as to how to get around this?
Ok, I know this isn't strictly about the phone but I'm at a loss to know what to do next.
you may not have administrator rights ?
how far does it get ?
do you get the icon in the bar beside the clock ?

Since upgrading to AS 4.5, I can no longer install applications on my htc Touch.
The error message reads:
"Application Manager cannot intall this application on your mobile device due to an error in the setup file. Reinstall and try again"
Happens with all .exe files and I have re-installed AS4.5 several times and tried "Repair".
Don't think it's an issue with programs that weren't designed for WM6 because I can't install the Sprite and spbGPRS programs from the htcTouch CD
I'm running XP Home SP2 and log on with Administrator privilages
The files install OK on my work PC which runs XP2 Prof SP2 with no Administrator privilages.
Any ideas anybody?
Anybody else...
...having this problem?

Been there, done that
no answers anywhere I can see.
The Microsoft site only applies to specific programs, like the Media Player one you pointed to or Powerpoint.
Only thing I can find is possibly the .ini file doesn't have the correct version notation for instance it states version 1 instead of version 1.0
That still doesn't explain why they all install on the PC at work though.
Both PCs running AS4.5, both running Windows XP
i dont really thing activesycn is good at cleaning up after itself when reinstalled and or uninstalled
i've seen lots of files in it's dir
and lots of registrys it leave behind
a good cause would go and hunt them down and make sure
that a reinstall is really a reinstall
Hey all. Sorry if this is in the wrong forumsection, feel free to move it if so.
I am having problems syncronizing my TyTn II with my PC. I am using Activesync 4,5. I read somewhere that this can occur if you change the usb port from the one you were using the first time, and i think that is what i might have done.
Has anyone else had this problem? What can i do to fix it?
This (registry change) did the trick for me

Thanks mate, that seems to be a solution to the problem. Only problem now is that as far as i know i dont have a regedit program on my phone. Which one should i use and how to i go about using it? How do i get the program onto my phone when i cant use Activesync?
Appreciate any help..
I just started a thread like this in the Hermes forum

Try this procedure step-by-step
1. make sure your phone is not connected to the computer in any way
a. Bluetooth off
b. WIFI off
c. USB cable not connected
2. Run spybot S&D (I always do this when the computer misbehaves - and make no mistake your computer is misbehaving)
3. Terminate all other running programs
4. Hook your phone to the usb cable and the usb cable to the computer. (don't worry if it syncs or not)
5. Open Device Manager and select Network Adapters
6. Uninstall the Windows Mobile Device
7. Disconnect the Phone
8. Open the Control Panel "Add/Remove Programs" and uninstall Active Sync
9. Reboot the computer
10. Connect to the internet and get a fresh copy of Activesync 4.5 and install it.
At this point if you can back up your PIM to the storage card or something it would be great because I suggest you do a hard reset of the phone. go to the settings page and select System. Tap the clear storage icon and follows the instructions to reet the phone.
11. Reset phone as above
12. When phone reboots, connect it to the computer via the usb cable.
Phone should sync from now on.
Good Luck
PS.
MrVanx is right, that could help but it will limit your phones capability. However if my method fails that may be your only option short of reflashing the phone with some other ROM.

Thanks for the tip there, sook. I just tried it and it didnt work for me.
I did all the steps except for these:
5. Open Device Manager and select Network Adapters
6. Uninstall the Windows Mobile Device
The thing is i cant find my mobile device anywhere in the device manager or in the network adapters subcategory. Any ideas?
Is there any way to edit the registry on my phone without having to download and install something? Like a built-in program or something..

Hi
I recently performed windows xp updates to my dell laptop, and no when I connect my windows mobile (o2 XDA orbit 2 or touch cruise elsewhere), I get a blue screen error with the above. I tried the rather *** Dell Driver Reset Tool, which did as expected - Chuff all.
Anyone else experienced this and have any idea how I rectify this? Reinstall active sync???

Hello!
Please, help me! I am trying to install WM 6.1.4 emulator. I need this to test a website I am designing for mobile devices.
The problem is that I can't make Internet Explorer work. I am trying to follow this steps HERE, but I am having troubles.
I have installed all software needed (Visual Studio 2005, Windows Mobile 6 SDK, Windows Mobile 6.1.4 emulator, Active Sync, Windows Mobile 6 - I tryed with this one too).
So I'm having trouble at step 3.1. I read the COM port configuration from the status bar of the Cellular Emulator main window. That is COM 3. When I am trying to map that com to the Serial port 0, I can;t do that. The only com that I can select is COM 1.
The emulator works great, but I need it ONLY for internet access, so it is no use for me now.
Could you please help me?
Oh, and another problem: If I'm trying to make a connection following those steps there... I can't find all those settings. So I am unable to create a connection.
Thank you for your time, and, hopefully, for your help .
Laurentiu
Problem solved... at last... The problem was with Active Sync. I wasn't creating a right connection.
Topic closed .
can you please tell me how you solved this problem ?

what os?
try a new cable, or try plugging the cable into a different usb port.
i got the same problem. my pc:
Windows 7 with windows device center.
can not recognise my device.
i plug in the touch pro. i get the message to choos active sync diskdrive or share my internet.
i choose active sync.
then nothing happens in device center.
tried uninstalling rndis. after restart it installes the phone again and then it works for 1 time only. after that its the same.
i have searched forums saying that uninstalling device center does not solve the problem. also they say downloading the version on the MC site is another version that Windows 7 is shipped with.
Need help, wanna install another rom. i do have another pc, but i wished it would work on this pc.
any help would be very appreciated.
EDIT 24-10-2009
Also got this message at the properties of Microsoft Windows Mobile Remote Adapter:
This device is not working properly because Windows cannot load the drivers required for this device. (Code 31)
Hope that this could help me in some way

You could just update to the latest HTC ROM from the official website if your phone is still under warranty, btw thats what i did but it didn't help. Note, that i'm running Windows 7 as my OS if anyone want to know this information to help solve the problem. Thanks in advance.

I have the same problem.
in my situation i tried to recover usb-flash and flash a nokia phone. For both things programs installed their own drivers. Even after I deinstalled the software I probably still have their drivers on my pc. That's why I can't sync my phone...
is there a tool to manage installed drivers?
or the other way out is to reinstall windows 7
anyone willing to help?
This solution worked for me:

I found a different solution that worked for me: On my phone I clicked start/programs/active sync/options and deleted all the old PC connections that were displayed. In fact, you could probably just delete ALL the PC connections displayed and start from scratch. You'll just have set up another sync partnership in WMDC when you plug it in. Let me know if this helps.
it is to easy! should work ALWAYS:
Make sure "Advanced network functionality" is switched off in the USB to PC settings then:
go to activesync, menu, connections, disable "connect via USB" off, press "ok" go back to connections, enable "connect via usb" press "ok" unplug and replug your cable. and all works.

i have been all over the microsoft forums to no avail. i recently updated my laptop to win7, and have a fuze running 6.1 mobile. when i connect my fuze to the laptop the laptop recognizes it as it begins to charge, but then nothing. i try to open win mobile device center and this is the error message i get C:\windows\system32\rapistub.dll is either not designed to run on windows or it contains errors. I have uninstalled and reinstalled 3 times and also tried different usb ports on my laptop. If anyone can help that would be awesome
