Vista WMDC6 (6.1 too) sync issue

I am running HTC TyTN II, Windows Vista Business and WMDC 6 (and alternatively 6.1). I cannot complete sync with Outlook 2007. Always get locked on at Calendar sync. Anyone with same problem, or solution. I have tried numerous suggestions and posts relating to synch issues; none worked. tks,
Same problem, on both Vista Home Premium and Active Sync 4.5 on Win XP SP2 ("Attention Required" error). I think there are some other threads relating to this. It's really annoying!
i thought if you had vista you couldnt use activesync. you need windows media center or something like that
in my case I am using WMDC6. and also used WMDC6.1
Problem is the same in both cases.

Read it again ' on both Vista Home Premium and Active Sync 4.5 on Win XP SP2 '
I had the same issue too on XP . Installed Outlook 2003 all is well
is this an HTC issue only?
My guess a Microsoft Outlook 2007 issue
I'm syncing Calendar, Contacts and Tasks between Outlook 2007 and my Tilt using LapLink PDASync. PDASync lets me sync my 'personal folders'. By default, WMDC only lets you sync your exchange folders, which I don't want to do.
I am using Vista Ultimate & Outlook 2007. I sync my Tilt (stock Rom) via Windows Sync Center (part of Windows Mobile Device Center) and have no problems of any kind.
Ive been getting sync errors for about 2 weeks now using outlook 2007 and WMDC 6.1 It used to be fine then suddenly stopped working, yet my qtek 9000 and my MDA Vario both sync fine, both have wm6 roms. so it must be a kaiser bug
I have Vista Business and Outlook 2007. The only time my sync fails is when I have Outlook open. If it is closed, there is no problem.
I was having problems with WMDC 6.1 after upgrading it from WMDC 6.0.
I've been having more luck after removing it and re-installing though. I think I remember some sites saying that there is an option to doing with enabling scripts for personal folders, which could be blocking the connection between activesync/WMDC.
I'm on Vista, WMDC 6.1 and Outlook 2007 (not the full office suite).

Notes sync on WM6

Are you able to to sync your notes with my WM6 device ?
I use MS Outlook 2003.
In the included screenshot, you can see that I can not check 'Notes', because there is no checkbox.
I have tried to delete the ActiveSync partnership, and create a new one, but the problem is still the same.
I moved a few days ago from my WM5 (HTC TyTN) to a WM6 device (HTC Kaiser). With my HTC
TyTN, I could sync my notes without problems.
Thanks for any help, Chris
I must precise that I have WM6 Professional, so Notes should be available, isn't ?
I heard that Smartphone do not have Notes, but I am not using a smartphone.

No Outlook - What to Do?

I am thinking about buying a Tytn II (Kaiser). I run Windows XP Pro but I do not run MS Office or Outlook (which are not even installed on my PC) or Internet Explorer (which is). Instead I use OpenOffice (open source freeware), Thunderbird (ditto) and Firefox (ditto). I refuse to pay for MS Office or Outlook. How may I sync my Kaiser to my PC - address book, documents, bookmarks etc. ?
Seems a shame that such a wonderful sounding machine is tied to Outlook and MS Office

Hmmm...Windows Mobile=Microsoft
MS Office/Outlook=Microsoft
ERGO...you're stuck!
As mentioned already Microsoft's synching solutions Activesync or WMDC are for Microsoft apps only (although it baffles me that it won't even synch to native Windows apps such as address book or Outlook Express). There is some releief in that not having a recent version of Outlook installed doesn't grey out Favourites, Files or Media so you should still be able to sync these fine. There are third party products around that offer a greater amount of synching compatibility. Perhaps others who are using the apps you mentioned have experience or can name names. Additionally, perhaps those application suppliers can advise on solutions, if they're aware of any....
I was in a similar situation but I use Thunderbird only for storing my emails.
I saw in another post a link to:
www.goosync.com
I found the Google-calendar quite useful (can be opened in Thunderbird). With Goosync you can free-of-charge sync your Google-calendar (with restrictions). For some money you can also sync tasks and the address-book.
Have a look. Maybe it's something for you. Maybe not.

I sync my contacts directly to my hotmail account without the use of outlook but then again hotmail - microsoft.

FAX software

any one knwo any good application for FAX send and recieve,
i use to have one in me XDA cant remeber what is called.
I haven't seen software for sending Fax since windows mobile 2003.
I believe it's because of the way WM5 and WM6 modem drivers are written.
Would be nice though to have fax software running.
(on WM2003 I used KSE truefax)

WMDC on Windows 8 PC and Office 15 Preview

Hello,
I have installed Windows 8 (x64) + Office 15 Preview (x86) and when I connected my Windows Mobile 6.5 (Topaz) on PC it installed WMDC 6.1 (6.1.6965) and my phone got detected and started Sync with the Outlook profile. But IT FAILED during Sync.
Error:
Exchange ActiveSync encountered an error. If this condition persists, please contact your System administrator.
Not sure if this is going to work. If any one has got this working please let me know the workaround.
Note: The outlook was without any email configured. It was only for Address book and calender.
Thanks.

Thanks orb3000, But this was for Windows 8 Desktop OS for PC, not for Win Phone 8. So I hope this is the right forum?
Thanks.
I actually believe that this is the wrong forum.
Most likely WMDC can't work correctly with the new version of Outlook - at least that would be my guess. You could try it with a version of Outlook you used prior to Windows 8. As Microsoft sees Windows Mobile as 2 years dead I'm pretty sure they won't put much work into Office compatibility with it.

Agree with the forum .
Yes and also thinking it is the Outlook 15 that cant work properly with the OLD Sync Framework that WMDC uses. May be when we will have the RTM it may work, but not sure .
Thanks.
no more MAPI
It seems there will be no more MAPI in office 15 (replaced by RPC over HTTPS like in Outlook Anywhere)
And I think WMDC is using MAPI for sync so that's finished.
you will need to use Office 2010 if you want to sync WM phone
WMDC 6.1 not working with Windows 8 and Office 2010

Hi guys,
Just upgraded to Windows 8, it installed WMDC 6.1 as part of the process. Now my sync with my HTC Touch Pro 2 (WM 6.1) isn't working, despite the fact that I am using MS Office 2010. MS Partner Support (I am a member of the MS Partner Network) is still investigating.
Anyone has any suggestions/clues?
If this isn't fixed soon, I may have to switch to iPhone, as Windows Phone 8 is still months away.
Cheers!

Having the identical problem with my Samsung ACE I-325. No clue why.
Anyone??????
Windows 8, Office Outlook 2010, Windows Mobile Device Center WMDC, Windows Mobile 6.x
Same sync problem on Windows 8 RTM (x86) and Office Outlook 2010 Pro about Windows Mobile Device Center.
I have tryed with many Windows Mobile 6 phones, but the problem seems always the same.
I can just sync Notes, but not Calendar, Contacts, Tasks, etc.
It seems like WMDC CAN'T access (write/read) to Outlook.pst file.
