Hi, probably a simple question, but not obious to me:
Can I synchronize my phone with my notebook wirelessly via WiFi (not Bluetooth)? If yes, how?
Thanks in advance.
AFAIK MS disable network synchronization in ActiveSync 4.0 and higher by security reasons
And lower versions of AS (like 3.7) does not work with WM5/6
So you cannot use WiFi for that.
But you can try third-party servers (i.e. your Outlook synchronize with that server via internet and your phone too. Google has same service)

Is it possible to run multiple Outlook/Exchange accounts on a Windows Mobile device without resorting to accessing the accounts via IMAP or POP3?
I want to monitor three email accounts and would ideally like to be able to just update them all via a single activesync session as opposed to dealing with each account seperately.
Also, is it possible to connect to Public Folders via Windows Mobile over a Wireless of 3G connection?
My company has cut support for pocket outlook, so now I can't sync with the exchange server anymore (not directly, by wifi not even with activesync when connected to the pc). However, "normal" outlook still works, is there a way to mask the pocket pc and force the server to sync with it?
there could be many reasons as to why you can no longer sync. activesync could be disabled on the exchange server, perhaps they have removed access from outside the network, perhaps you need to VPN to the LAN first.....
can you give more info regarding your existing outlook set up? is it accessing the server from the LAN? is it possible to use outlook to check mail remotely? if so is outlook setup to check mail over a VPN or http?
the more info you can provide the easier it is to help.
I can only check email inside the company's network, so I have an openvpn account to check when I'm at home or anywhere else. This worked perfectly until they shut down the service. Now activesync gives an error 85010014 and they told me it was normal, the service was no longer supported. That's why I want to mask the pocket pc to make it look like the normal outlook and still allow me to sync everything. Is it possible?
Outlook PPC communicates with Exchange via web server and does not use the same Exchange protocol that Outlook desktop does. Your best bet might be if your Exchange server exposes an IMAP service, which you can then connect to.
The bottom line is Outlook PPC and Outlook desktop are completely different.
You may also like to try Outlook Mobile Access, which may also have been shut down (as it runs alongside DirectPush as a rule). In IE try something like: https://mypushserver.mycompany.com/oma. Use http or https depending on whether DirectPush was originally configured for SSL or not.
Edit: If your company is only supporting Blackberry (as mine does) you might want to try BB Connect for Windows Mobile. I'm not sure how easy it is to get hold of, however.
they did mention something about blackberry... but how does that work, from what I read it only works on gprs/3G, and I wanted to sync with wi-fi as well. Also, I found no download link, but some promises about a wm6 version for soon. Can anyone tell me where to look for more info?
Hi!
When I have my PDA connected to my PC using bluetooth and activesync, I can use the Internet connection of the pc directly from my PDA. For instance I can launch Mobile IE and visit a web page.
However I cannot use the Voip function of my PDA. The Today plug-in shows 'No service' status for my voip configuration (if I connect to Internet using WiFi, Voip works).
In the beginning I thought that ActiveSync only allows port 80 (HTTP) access. However I can also download or send e-mail messages using POP3/SMTP which use different ports.
Do you have any idea if I can also use Voip over the Internet connection shared by activesync?
Ha ha, good attention, however estimate should be be subjected to limiting of.The Voip used when Voip perhaps can'ted use "unit constitution"

The original question has not been answered, so I ask again.

I assume this is down to the NAT implementation on the Host PC and/or Windows Mobile 6.x not actually allowing this anyway - the PDA to PC uses the autoconfig IP network 169.254.0.0/16, all connections from the PDA are proxied via the host PC. I have just captured the traffic flow using WireShark from the host PC out (i.e. not the PDA to PC link) to see what is sent when the SIP client is started (Internet Calling). I can see the initial DNS lookup for the SIP server host (in my case 'sip.btsip.bt.net') which gets a valid reply, however there are no more packets transmitted from the host PC.
If I capture on the PDA-to-PC link (USB) I can see the DTPT protocol (DeskTop PassThrough protocol) which although WireShark understands it isn't very intuitive. I can see a 'QuerySet' with the DNS name embedded (sip.btsip.bt.net) but there is little else.
I really don't think ActiveSync is capable of doing this and to be honest I don't think the Windows Mobile is even trying. I have captured several conversations over WiFi when I first got the SIP client working and the conversation I am seeing here is nothing like them.

Hi,
we have two windows mobile devices and want to synchronize some kind of data (ie. meetings and tasks).
How is it possible WITHOUT PC?
TIA

Hi
If you're connecting both devices to a PC then simply sync them both with the same MS Outlook profile and you're done. Another way to achieve this would be through an exchange server. You'd have to sync both devices on the same exchange account but this is possible. Check out Mail2Web as a method of getting your exchange set up:

You would of course need internet connectivity on both devices for this solution to work.

Thanks a lot!
I just hoped there's a direct way...

Ok, imagine i have 5 mailboxes (all throgh Gmail) and i'm checking for them on a few different devices: android smartphone, android tablet, home PC and office PC.
I use Mozilla Thunderbird email client software on PCs and K-9 Mail on androids.
How would you set all email clients to behave so i wouldn't need reading the same emails in every client but also won't miss anything?
You need just to configure Thunderbird to use IMAP connection (not POP)
Awesome article. Thanks.
