Hi...to some of the more experienced hands out there. I have a problem with Microsoft Active sync 4.5.
I introduced new categories for my contacts in Outlook 2007. these copied fine, but what happens is...i get an error message saying synchronization cannot be completed. at this time, when i sync using the active sync application on my vox, it works and synchronises fine....all this after i disabled advanced network functionality.
the above process takes nearly 10mins! that too, after i manually press the sync button on my mobile! is there any way to solve this problem?
also, i wish to know if there is anyway one can add more fields to the phones contact book. i added and entered data in new fields in outlook 2007, but this wasnt transmitted to my mobile.......we have useless entries like pager, radio ( what the hell is that!! ) and so on, but not a single place where one can enter an extra mobile no. for instance!!!
can any one help? tried a lot of fora, but no one seems to have any proper solution for this one!
a new challenge for xda developers forum! thanx in advance, its maddening doing this sync manually every bloody time!
Try deleting the device from activesync while device is disconnected and then adding it again by reconnecting.
Tried but no result!
thank u but i tried all the obvious solutions.....else i wouldnt have started this post. all this works only with advanced network functionality off, mind u, and it takes ages!

I have an XDA2i and I'm running Active Sync 4.2.0. When I try to sync, everything works fine, except I cannot select calander as a sync option with my XDA. Where I would normally go into options and check the box for calendar, there is no check box.
This is really starting to do my nut in as I've tried creating a new profile but the problem follows the profile. Any suggestions would be mostly appreciated.
Thanks
Have you got a default calendar set-up in outlook?
Yes...it used to work. It suddenly stopped allowing any synchronization, that's when I created a new profile for the XDA2i and updated to 4.2 but it will now not synchronize Calendar. It will sync the Contacts & tasks but the most important thing for my work is the Calendar.
Thanks
Calander problem and other queries
Hi I have had an xda2i in the past and it all worked fine with the Calander. This week my newer model xdamini S broke down so I turned to the replacment xda2i i had been sent when the other one packed up and I just cant get it to recognise the calander. Its just not in the list. As you say contacts etc is there but Calander is not. The strange thing is when setting up connection you can choose to sync with calander, contacts etc which I select only to find that once the sync occurs Calander is just not in the list. Can anyone you had anyone help solving this?? Im using outlook 2003. Also the xda2i im using has not got the latest drivers I have looked for them on the 02 site but they dont seem to be their anymore. Finally, what does the radio version do anyway? Help with these issues would be greatly appreciated.
Right then....
...The only workaround I have managed to find is simple...
1) Remove the ActiveSync software and all pairings
2) Hard Reset the XDA2i (yes, that means everything is lost is nothing has sync'd)
3) Re-install ActiveSync and recreate the partnership again.
It seems drastic, but since doing that the XDA2i now functions perfectly. Hope this helps some people (I'm reluctant to try anything like this on my new Mini S cos I can't get it to partner up at all..but that's another thread )
I am having a problem with ActiveSync on my phone an Orange M700 running the HTC P3600 ROM. It was working with no problems until a few weeks ago when it stopped syncing. I have tested the laptop with another PPC and ActiveSync notices it straight away.
I have installed ActiveSync 4.5 to no avail so I returned to 4.2 and still nothing. I deleted all partnerships in both the phone and the laptop and when I plugged it back in the Windows saw the device as there was a pop up bubble in the bottom right corner but ActiveSync never kicked in.
I have had a look at the ActiveSync settings in the M700 but everything looks fine to me.
I have also been having problems with my 3G connection not connecting and doing the regular syncs it normally does e.g. my personal mail every 5 mins, my yahoo mail every hour and the weather every 2 hours. The only thing that has changed in this time is that I installed Fring, I can't imagine its related but I uninstalled Fring just in case but still no luck.
Anyone got any ideas how to fix it as I have some new appointments (I'm not sure which ones) in my PDA which I want to get synced before messing around with hard resets etc.
Thanks
Did you delete any notifications of any kind, usually replog files? If YES, then you just deleted your notification to activate Active Sync on your computer. You can solve that easily by returning the file. READ this for the solution: http://www.cs.pitt.edu/~jmisurda/ppc/blog/index.php?entry=entry051203-201515

I don't think I did that but I tried the file anyway, still no joy. I think my phone is also vibrating when I plug it into the PC now, very strange.

Have you ever used Check Notifications? It is a free software to clear away JUNK notifications.
Link: http://www.scarybearsoftware.com/cn_overview.html
Sometimes, our PPC just creates duplicates of certain Notifications that can cause conflicts with some softwares. Maybe this is what is happening in your device. You can try and download Check Notifications, even though it says it is only compatible with WM 2003, I use it for my HTC Universal (WM5). Just go to Check Notifications settings and tick the 3 choices, run it and CLEAR those pesky bugs.

Right I ticked the three boxes and cleared the issues but still nothing
Normally I'd just hard reset but I am worried about losing appointments I've forgotten I have made since my last sync.

I don't know what else to suggest.
If you do decide to HARD RESET, take a look at this FREE BABKUP program for contacts and calendar events: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=299705&highlight=backup
I hate doing hard resets myself, that is why I have SPB Backup configured to do automatic backups everyday at 5AM.
Good Luck...

Thanks for your help.
I'm not sure how I am going to progress this. My major issue is that we use GroupWise at work with a third party app to allow the PocketPCs to sync with it. When you set it up it blanks the device before you can do anything, if I wait and import everything after this it usually can't cope with the levels of changes and kills the system on the server.
Oh joy, why wasn't someone looking at the "bigger picture" when we choose an e-mail system.....
Have a Kaiser not TILT which out of the box had no issue calendar syncing via Exchange directly along w/ emails and contacts.
I am on the AT&T network as well.
Upgraded ROM to Schap's newest and calendar wouldn't sync
Upgraded to Dutty's Touch WWE as well and calendar wouldn't sync
My radio is the standard from Kaiser 1.27.12.11
ANY AND ALL HELP WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED>>>
PLEASE HELP!!!

Just curious....
Are you syncing directly with Exchange via push-type activesync? Or syncing with your local calendar on your PC with activesync?
I am going direct to Exchange. For my company, I had to add Server Source in Activesync (after adding my company's security certificate), and enter in all the relevant info (server name, secure connection or not, username/password, etc).
Not sure if that sheds any light....good luck.

I am doing it directly to Exchange...we don't use certficates and it works on my hermes with no problem and with custom ROMS...yet once I began using custom ROMS on my Kaiser it stopped syncing ONLY my calendar items...I just deleted the partnership directly on the phone just now and re-added it back, but to no avail...problem still exists...during the initial sync Active Sync on the phone even says syncing 200 calendar items, yet the calendar shows nothing...
HELP!!!!
When you look in activesync on your phone does it give any error code etc? I have heard of issues with corrupt appointments giving off errors when syncing. Any error will stop the sync of that piece of outlook. IE email gets and error email won't sync, but calendar will etc etc...

Unfortunately no error codes at all it as if it works perfectly...yet when looking at your calendar, nothing is there...i am miffed and pissed at the same time therefore miff-pissed
I guess for the sake of narrowing down the issue, you could re-flash the original Kaiser ROM. The link is posted here somewhere.
I don't know what could be going on. I have the Tilt. I have flashed several ROMs (all based on ATT ROM though), and never had any issues.
Best of luck.
i know this sounds strange but did you flash another radio when you flashed the new ROM's?
Reason being, on my Hermes certain Radio's made my Exchange syncing go crazy. Flashing a different radio version solve my problem. Might be worth a try if you havent?
This may sound stupid, but have you verified the date on your phone? Maybe you are accidently 1 year early, so it is syncing your appts but you are looking for them a year from now or whatever. I did this once and it drove me crazy.
Thank you both for your comments/suggestions...the date is correct as I have verified it...as for the radio, I did NOT upgrade the radio from the original that came with the device...even on my hermes I never ever had this type of issue...guess I will try looking at a different radio and seeing if I should flash that..problem is that most people who have the HTC radio .11 say that there is no benefit to upgrading the radio at all. I am beyond miffed!!!
Just upgraded the radio to .17; deleted partnership on the PC and the Kaiser, soft reset device; added partnership back and sync'd...STILL NO CALENDAR!!!! UGGH!!!!! PLEASE HELP!!!

What operating system are you using? Vista WMDC v6.1 or MS Active Sync v4.5? If you're using Vista you may need to update WMDC to v6.1 and if WinXP you may need to update to Active Sync v4.5. If that is done, please delete and recreate your partnership again...sorry, then under File > Connections menu please select option that says "This computer is connected to" and choose [The Internet]. This is basically part of the process for "How to: Connect to Internet via 2 different proxy settings (1 for GPRS and 1 for Wifi/ActiveSync) and somehow it works for me...maybe as a fluke of luck... Establish a cable connection and sync...takes a bit of time...Please PM me for the documentation if you're interested.
I'm having a similar problem but email won't sync on mine where Calendar does.
I'm using a fresh O2 Stellar (no mods) & Vista WMDC 6.1.6965
Calendar syncs over the air without issue.
My previous O2 mini-s worked flawlessly as do others in my company.
No errors are reported by activesync and it thinks everything is wonderful.
Any tips? It's immensley annoying.
I am using Vista along with the most recent version of WMDC 6.1xxx; i have deleted and recreated the partnerships so many times...no matter what ROM i use it only syncs my contacts and emails...never the calendar..gonna try 1 more time now..I just don't understand this...even w/ my Hermes I never had this issue.
Stranger still...
In my case I can sync everything except appointments created on my device. They just never sync.
Same Problem with user in my company...
I am part of the IT group in my company and 1 of our users are experiencing the same issue.
Good News: Its not your phone. I've tested the users email on multiple phones and receives same result.
Ban News: Still haven't pin pointed the issue
Try running ScanPST.exe on your pc... Maybe something corrupt in your outlook calendar causing the problem.
Calendar appointments created on my device are the only things that won't sync for me. First noticed it when ActiveSync drained my battery in about an hour and a half from attempting and re-attempting to sync to exchange server. I have not installed any new programs, changed any configuration settings, or updated ROM recently to cause this.

Had this problem awhile ago, and switched ROMS and it went away. Back again. ran the scanpst on all psts and ost, deleted partnesrhips and no go. Really annoying.
See this thread as well. I started it awhile ago and it never had a firm resolution.

I have had the same problem on a few ROMs as well as the one I’m on now. One thing to note is I also noticed a contact added to the device would not sync as well. Anyway it's a bad work around but I found something and it will get ALL of your stuff to sync. I found it on another site's forums (sorry cvan remember which one) when I could not find anything about it here other than people mentioning they had the same problem but no solution.
1. Change your Time Zone to a NON-DST time zone (I’ve used GMT-4:30 Caracas) and save the setting.
2. Click ‘Yes” to saving changes to the clock setting.
3. Manually hit Sync in ActiveSync on your device and let it go over your cellular line (sorry haven’t tried it hooked a PC)
4. Once completed change back to your original Time Zone, sync again, and all should be well.
I have to do this EVERY time I add a new appointment to the device directly. I hope this help and I’m REALLY hoping one of you guys can figure this one out and come up with a fix.

no success for me . . . .
Heya, This is my first winmo device (HTC Raphael [aka HTC Fuze for At&T]) ever and I'm having an abominably annoying time with active sync for wm6.1
every once in a while when I plug my phone in for syncing, I get this error that says:
Result:
There has been a change made on your server that requires you to re-synchronize all items on your device. Please perform a manual sync.
Support Code: 0x80883001

I don't know what in the hell is wrong with active sync, but I do know that everytime it does this re-synchronization, I end up having to re-add all my contacts on the People tab on my TF3D interface AND I lose all the custom ring tone assignments for everyone. Is there a way I can make this stop. It's obscenely annoying and I hate active sync with a passion of a million burning suns.
help please?
The only times I've seen this message or a similar one, is when I try to sync with my laptop when I travel and it has a different time than my phone. For example, my laptop is one hour behind the phone time or the other way arround. Fixing the time settings has solved this for me in the past. Though I don't know how would this impact your contacts...
PS,
I hate it too...
The odd thing is, it happens very randomly and I have no idea why the change is there and why it screws with tf3d's favorite ppl tab and assigned ringtones, but it's annoying as all hell.
do you sync outlook calendar items?
I believe I do. I'll try changing something on the computer then sync it and see if the message comes up. otherwise I'll do the opposite and see if that's the issue.
I found out that after adding an event into my calendar via the fuze, active sync will display the above mentioned message and proceed to erase all my contacts in the "People" tab as well as all ringtones associated to all the callers on my contact list.
Help please?
Who do I have to make love to here to get some help?
p.s I'm a very kinky person irl
lol. we're trying to help everyone...
alright, which operating system are you using?
(are you female?)
I'm using Windows Vista

Here is some more info for you. Says something creating outlook subfolders on the desktop w/o syncing first. Anyway, seems like this is the problem you are describing.
http://social.microsoft.com/Forums/.../thread/161c69c7-eba5-4909-8b2d-0212b5309c41/
I was actually browsing that exact thread. The problem is that I haven't made any folders under outlook. The only thing I did was to add an event into the calendar. Suppose I have an appointment next week say, Monday February 2nd. I go to my fuze and set the appointment via the calenda soft tab. From there, I later sync the fuze to my computer (Vista) and then the error message comes up.
Any attempts to delete the partnership and then recreate a new one will simply just erase all the people I have under the "Peoples" tab on my TF3d Interface. I'd also like to note that all the ringtones that I have assigned for specific contacts also get erased.
honestly, i can't think of anything...
I'd hard reset if i were you
and if you're using vista, you should try to use WMDC 6.1 instead of activesync
WMDC? is it an alternative to syncing?
Sorry, This is indeed my first windows mobile phone so I have very little grasp on various WM softwares and such.
That microsoft forum thread mentions some suggestions to compact your Outlook pst file and check it for errors. If you are syncing to an Outlook pst file, then I would disable the cache mode option in Outlook, make a backup of the pst file, check it for error / repair and compact it to see if that helps.
hihi...lol

If it was my type of problem as in everything gets wiped out and replaced back in (therefore screwing up the tf3d peoples tab.. then I found the answer..
when sync your phone, you are asked what to do if there are conflicts. I misread it and chose replace on device... It should be replace on desktop. Basically I told it that if there was a conflict, to replace everything on my device rather than on my desktop.. now that I changed that, i haven't had that problem.. at all.

Hi all-
I am having some trouble with active sync and outlook. I have a standard rom fuze syncing to outlook 2000 on a windows xp computer. The other day after a sync I noticed my contacts in outlook were all deleted, yet they are still on the phone. I noticed in active sync on the computer that it is only syncing the calendar, favorites and files, not contacts. When I look in the active sync program on the phone I see that the contacts option is now grayed out and is not available to select. I am not worried about loosing my database, I use pim backup, I just want to get my contacts back onto my computer. I have been using windows phones for several years and have never come across this problem before..
I deleted the partnership both on the phone and on the computer, and then re established the syncing partnership. At first if appeared it would sync the contacts, but when the syncing process was done, I was back to where I started with the contacts grayed out again.
I did come across these threads:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=428257
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=264609

and none of them provided any help to my situation.
One person did suggest installing some office xp updates which did not help, someone suggested to hard reset the phone but before I do that I wanted to ask if anyone knows of anything else I can try, and how I can prevent this from happening again. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Handy thing that
thanks Jack of Clubs for the helpful link. I will definately check that out...
But for now, I need to get those contacts back into outlook. I use outlook to sync from my windows phone to a few nokia phones.
Anyone have any ideas I can try before a hard reset?
You didn't setup any type of exchange for your contacts for another server did you? Since my move to Vista/7 and the updated WMDC I haven't had that problem. Good luck...let us know how its sovled.
no, i don't have any type of exchange setup. just basic syncing to activesync through usb cable. quite baffling to me..
Deleted Out look contacts
This happened to me, luckily i found all my contacts in the deleted folder of Outlook and simply restored them, it has to do with the direction of syncing, i.e. pc to device or device to pc, on will over write the other......
yes, I did copy the deleted items back into the contact database.
I am trying to figure out how to re establish the syncing relationship between the phone and outlook..
