ActiveSync 4.5 App Crashes B4 Sync Completion with 8925 Tilt - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

Up until recently, I've been successfully using "Microsoft Active Sync 4.5", to sync my 8925 Tilt's data to my PC (running Windows XP w/service pack2). Now Active Sync keeps crashing at/near the very end of the syncing process. I removed Active Sync from my PC via add/remove programs, and also moved the previously synced folder (Tilt files) from my PC desktop onto another HD, and then reinstalled Active Sync from scratch. Unfortunately Active Sync continues to crash even after reinstall, including removing the Tilt to PC link partnership and reassigning a new one. The crash error message window reads: "ActiveSync Application has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience."
Here is the list of items I've got selected for syncing:
contacts
calendar
tasks
notes
files
WorldmatePro
Autofile
Movie Guide
Spb Wallet
The syncing process appeared to hang when it attempts to complete syncing the 'files' and/or 'notes' section, so I subsequently removed both 'files' & 'notes' from the sync item list, but unfortunately, Active Sync continues to crash right after having successfully(?) syncing all items, as interestingly enough, a synced check mark appears next to all items before the program actually crashes.
Is Microsoft Active Sync the only program that can sync the phone's: contacts, calendar, tasks, notes, and backup/sync files to your PC? I also own Sprite backup (full version) but I don't believe its a syncing program like Active Sync is.
Anybody here experienced problems with ActiveSync 4.5?
I have lots of apps installed & have made a lot of tweaks on my Tilt, so short of performing a hard reset on my phone, are there any suggestions on how I can get Active Sync working (w/o crashing) again?
Thanks in advance for all help and input.

Try unchecking the "Enable advanced network functionality" box under the connections tab > USB to PC.

Make sure there are not any older versions of Microsoft office on your machine.
ActiveSync doesnt know where to look for the sync items if you havent COMPLETELY removed everything.
I had a similar problem, had an update from office 2000xp to 2007 and it wouldnt sync.

Many ppl have multiple versions of Office installed as a result of trial versions that were installed at the factory the never got removed, and other factors. Remove all versions of Office and all components. Then install only the version you intend to use in perpetuity.

Active sync error message, please help

:lol:
I am happy i have WM5 finally working and sweet on my MDA III, but i cannot syn my device with my outlook, or anything. I have tried with Outlook open, it gives me "Support code: 85010014" i have uninstalled and deleted the folder, repaired outlook and i am not using activesync 4.1 and it is still giving th error message. I also have SP2, everything up to date. I have deleted and created new pathnerships, and uninstalled and reinstalled, still getting the same problem. Please any ideas will help. It is not connecting to an exchange server, i have also read around so i decided to post mine.
Activesync and WM5
Activesync under WM5 is different than under WM2003. You didn't indicate how you were trying to sync, I assume via a usb cradle/cable. With WM2003 the syncronization via a usb protocol. For some reason under wm2005, they decided to switch to TCP/IP.
If you look in your PC's network connections with your phone plugged in you will find a window's mobile local area connection. Unplug the cable and the local area connection drops off. The observation is that you now have to allow this connection through whatever firewalls you have setup. This week when ever I had the firewall turn on ActiveSync would not work. I eventually removed and reinstalled Activesync 4.0 (I was on 4.1) and I assume the installation process configured my XP firewall correctly this time around. Check your firewall settings.
Tried it
I only have the windiws firewall, i even disabled the micrisoft antispyware and it still giving me the same error message
Activesync, WM5 and Windows Firewall
Check your Windows Firewall exceptions, I have the following exceptions for the Windows Firewall:
ActiveSync Application (WCESMgr.exe)
Activesync Connection Manager (wcescomm.exe)
Activesync RAPI manager (rapimgr.exe)
Activesync Service (TCP Port 26675)

Actually I believe you will find it needs ports 5678, 5679, 990, 26675, and 5721. Hope that helps
Hi,
I have the same problem too. I just updated to ROM1.60c and ActiveSync 4.1 build 4807. When I try to sync, tt keeps giving me the error code 85010014.
The funny thing is, I have no problems syncing Notes from Outlook. But the other Outlook items like Contacts, Calendar and Tasks are not so lucky.
What's happening? How come only Notes can sync?
Any help is appreciated, thanks!

Tried it
i have tried it all, it is not working, i have disabled all firewall, something keeps popping up on my pda that it cannot get an ip, i just ignore from reading the wiki. I cannot get MS voice command to work, after install i get an error message, i really want to use WM5, i can do with out voice command, but active sync is very important. i think i will use active sync 3.8 in the mean while see if it works :?
obiesoft,
Are you using OST feature of Outlook? If so, make sure your Outlook client is connected to your Exchange Server during your first sync (i.e. when prompted choose "Connect" not "Work Offline", if not prompted check settings in Control Panel-Mail). Not to be confused with having ActiveSync connect directly to Exchange Server. This solved my problem with 85010014.
Good luck!
i am not using an exchange server, just outlook on a desktop, it syns perfectly on my laptop, so i am trying to find where the problem is. Also, my bluetooth always disconnects, why is this and how can i solve it?
Can i please get more help
Ok, My device synced with my laptop (which connects over wireless to the internet at home). I was happy about this so i copied my pst files from my outlook from desktop to the outlook folder on laptop and it now asks for password to an exchange server??? all this is weird, i just want all my contacts to go in with my calender info. Also the bluetooth is rubbish, it disconnects, any fixes or tricks to keep it up and running? i use HBH 300 headset. Also voice command is installed but when i activate it, it says "voice command ready" and then an error message pops us. I love WM5, but anything to fix these glitches so i can keep using it? Help will be greatly appreciated.
Hmm... sorry, don't have much else to add... might be time to unsinstall and re-install Outlook on your desktop....
Bluetooth
Well i will keep trying with outlook or if worst comes to the worst, enter everything onto my pda by hand. (DAMN).
But besides that, is anyone having problems with bluetooth? mine keeps disconnecting.

I also have the same problem. It has been driving me nutts for 4 days now. :evil:
WORKING!!!
I have a desktop which i sync my WM2003 with, but since i upgraded, i have been having problems. Now it is working, but this is what i did, nothing too technical
1. I have a laptop which has most of my downloads and programs i write for school and work.
2. I installed active sync 4.0 on my laptop and synced, it worked, but my data is on my desk top
3. on the desktop i went to C:\Documents and Settings\jiggaman\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook (jiggaman is name of my desktop) and copied the personal data files to the same path on my laptop, then i opened outlook, deleted the dupilcate email accounts and synced, it worked!!
4. It updated my PDA and latop, all this means now is that i have to sync with laptop, not desktop anymore. So if you have another computer, you can try this cause it would not sync for the past 2 weeks with my desktop.
Good luck!
Any ideas on bluetooth? it is still acting up.
Re: Support Code 85010014
Hi there,
I had this problem with a PPC-6700 from Sprint. (EVDO HTC Apache with WM2005) I hacked around a lot, did the repairs, reinstalled ActiveSync, no go. I decided to reinstall Outlook and, for some reason, that did the trick. I also have 2 different versions of Office, Pro 2003 and the Student and Teacher Edition. I think I had problems with installing from the pro cd, but I'm not certain. Not sure if it has something to do with that or not.
I solved my ActiveSync problem with Error 85010014.
I also run Eudora and Incredimail Plugin for Outlook on both PCs, Work and Home. Both are on XP Pro SP2 and when I installed ActiveSync 4.1 on my work PC without issue, I decided to attack my Home PC Outlook installation to see if I could resolve the issue.
So, At home:
Putting Outlook in Offline mode did not solve the problem.
I uninstalled ActiveSync 4.0 and installed ActiveSync 4.1 - No difference.
I backed up Outlook via 3rd party program to grab account settings as well as my 2GB pst file then ran Help->Detect and Repair... - reboot, no difference.
I then ran Control Panel -> Add or remove Programs -> Office 2003 and chose to modify my installation by adding or removing components. I unchecked Outlook and updated it to remove Outlook from my Office 2003 suite. Then returned to this option and re-checked Outlook to add it back to my Office 2003 Suite, CD-Rom in hand but updating it did not ask for the Office 2003 Install CD-Rom... - Rebooted and connected - Bingo NO 85010014 error!

Foxnolds! You are a genius! This worked for me just as you described - many thanks! My Wizard will be here in 3 days, but for now I was going mad not being able to get WM5 on my pda2k to sync with Outlook until I tried your solution. Voila!

I'm glad it worked for you also.
I have since chosen to "Delete Mobile Device" from ActiveSync as I did not like the name it had chosen. I then disconnected, went to PDA
Start->Settings->System->About->Device ID
then set it to want I want it to read. :wink:
I then connected to ActiveSync and predictably saw the new connection wizard, BUT it warned it could not see Outlook at all! It suggested I install a version of Outlook etc. even though it was visible and running on my desktop! :evil:
I connected anyway - Contacts, Tasks, Calendar, Notes options greyed out. :roll:
Rebooted PC XP Pro SP2 and now ActiveSync options were available. I enable Syncing of Contacts, Tasks, Calendar and Notes. Resynced and got the dreaded 85010014 error status again! :evil:
UnInstalled and Re-Installed Outlook 2003 from the Office Suite but did not reboot PC. ReSynced and this time I get Windows PC: Attention required Error 8503001f :evil:
Microsoft ActiveSync said:
Cannot synchronize with the Outlook profile you are using, because a different profile was previously set up or the profile is password-protected.
Please open Outlook using the appropriate profile.

Maybe a reboot is required... So I'll post this and see... :roll:
I have now found that uninstalling the Outlook component from Office 2003, rebooting then re-installing Outlook component to be effective 90% of the time in curing ActiveSync errors.
To solve the hardest 10%, I have found that I need to update the Windows\system32\MAPI32.DLL which only can be done without Outlook or WCESMgr.exe running. (Use Windows Task Manager to kill them first)
See zip file of the MAPI32.DLL that always works for me, even if the existing version says it's identical (i.e. from Windows Copy Dialog).
I now have two XP SP2 PCs syncing up to WM2003SE XDA II and my WM2005 i-mate Jasjar.
P.S. I found a solution to AvantGo over sized text in WM2005, use Tweaks2K2 .NET version 3.15.0 feature #75-Double Pixeling deactivation for individual programs in VGA Devices.
I now manually sync via WiFi on my Jasjar using "AvantGo Connect" application, like I manually sync WeatherPanel as required as GPRS charges are criminal in this country!
Contacts wont sync on upgraded BlueAngel
I upgraded to WM5 and things are good so far. I had some trouble Syncing with 4.1 on my pc but not with my laptop. The problem now is that I have only been able to get my contacts to sync partially. Ive looked through the posting, but I have not been able to find any solutions. Any one out there know a way around this problem or a solution I should say.

Having serious problems with ActiveSync. Please Help.

I added one appointment to my calendar today (a repeating event). Now, ActiveSync hangs on "processing" for this app only. If I deselect Calendar in my phone's ActiveSync program, everything else syncs just fine.
I tried deleting that appointment to no avail (it did make it over to Outlook on the PC, so I deleted it there too). I even did a hard reset and restored from a sprite backup I had from earlier: same thing.
I found that I had this same problem when I switched over from PalmOS to WM6, so I purged my last few years of old appointments and was eventually successful. I do sync on two PC's (I won't be at my office PC until tomorrow, so I can't say what will happen there).
Any suggestions?
ActiveSync and Calendar
I'm having the same problem. WM 6.0 and 6.1 would sync fine, but now I'm using jjblaster3's build 28005 (full) 6.5 ROM, I'm getting this infinite 'processing'.
I've reflashed, re-installed ActiveSync, even checked my firewall though I knew it was fine. I had imported all my Facebook friends' birthdays into Outlook (i.e. lots of recurring appts). I have since removed them in Outlook, and still getting the same issue...

Did the "Enable Faster Synchronization" box in the USB to PC configuration get rechecked (it should be unchecked) when you reflashed?
Don't know if this is of any use.....I also have seen this happen numerous times that Active Sync gets jammed and won't download/sync properly.
I usually Press and Hold on the server icon (Menu - Options) and when the menu pops up I select Remove. Close A/S and reopen, tap on configure server and reset ActiveSync up again.
Sorry if this is different to your set up. This is what I have to do if A/S jams. Regards.

Microsoft Exchange Sync Problems with Tilt

The following took place over a two or three day period (I posted on the AT&T forums before bothering everyone here).
Okay, I just did a hard reset and I am now attempting to setup my Tilt to sync with my work server (Microsoft Exchange). I have established a connection to the network but I get the following error when attempting to sync:
"There is not enough free memory on your device to synchronize information. Close programs that are running to free up memory, or restart the device."
There are no other programs running. I just did a soft reset (using psShutXP) and this was the first thing that I did. I checked the task manager to see if anything else was running, and Active Sync was the only program listed.
Now all of the contacts from my work server are gone!!! I just pulled out the battery again just to be sure. I still can't sync with the Exchange Server.
I tried another hard reset last night: It didn't work. Everything sync'd except for my contacts - they were erased from the server before the 2nd hard reset. I then tried to sync to my home PC via Active Sync and the contacts were erased from that PC as well!!! I then had to use PIMBackup in order to restore the contacts to the phone. Now everytime that I try to sync with the Exchange Server, I get the same error message (not enough program memory on my device). I have used Oxios to clear as much memory as possible, but that didn't help.

active sync not syncing

for some reason since yesterday i couldnt sync with my laptop running vista anymore...it connects..and under wmdc it says connected but when it trys to sync the sync center just says sync failed...i've searched around and played around with the settings..such as unchecking the usb to PC box..the enable advanced network...i've tried deleting and re-creating a new partnership and it still wouldnt sync..now my phone has no contacts appointments in the calender but its all on my laptop...
edit: i am able to send files back and forth and use the file explorer...just cant get it to sync
any other settings i should look at?
i've read another thread that looked into the wifi which i did and had no success..
any other ideas?
edit: i'm playing around with what to sync..and its for some reason contaccts and calender it wont sync...if i uncheck those and just check lets say...mobile favs under wmdc...it'll sync no problem...i wonder whats causing this?
edit:still playing around with no advance..but for some reason if i just go to the calender or contact on the phone it freezes...maybe that has to do with it not syncing..because mobile favs n notes are syncing
Same here
I am having a similar problem. As far as I can tell mine sync's but I still get an error at the end. Not sure what isn't syncing.
I have the same problem but only with Contacts. Calendar and tasks sync normally. I'm using an original ROM WM6.0 in a Kaiser. and ActiveSync 4.5 with Outlook XP in a Windows XP SP3 machine (Works fine in my other computer with the same configuration). Do you know about a possible cause?
Not much help but I think I remember seeing threads somewhere that talked about sync problems due to corrupt calender/contacts files either on the pc or the device. Also I think it's temperamental about where your contacts etc are stored.

Sync problems

All of the sudden I am having problems sync'ing my phone with Outlook 2007. New contacts and calendars that I have added to Outlook will not sync to my phone. I thought that I had read somewhere that you could clear a setting in the Tilt to make this work but I can't find it anywhere now.
Anyone have any suggestions.
Tilt
Outlook 2007
Vista
Thanks!
Anybody have any ideas?
we started experiencing this too.
At first, it was just one person and then another. I noticed this morning I had the same issue.
Appointments created on my desktop machine do not sync to my phone. However, appointments created on my device will sync to my desktop.
I have been unable to resolve the issue so far.
I think I may try going back to outlook 2003 and see if this issue resolves.
I have had similar problems under XP in the past, where any appointment with a note attached would not sync, also any contact with a photo would not sync.
If you type the following (or cut and paste) into the 'run' window it may help or may not in your case - it certainly sorted my problem out
Regsvr32.exe %Windir%\System32\Ole32.dll
If it doesn't help - as it is a slightly different problem fix, then I am sorry I have no other ideas.
You could also try this site which is where the above fix came from originally:

I am only posting this so that you know that it does and can work - I have (at least so far) using the ROM in my sig - and Office 2007 on an XP Pro machine had no problems synching. I sync messages, contacts, calendar tasks notes and favorites.
FYI,
Bill
I have some variables I did not mention before such as groupwise and Vista OS, not to mention what we are changing in the server background.
Here is the 'shotgun' approach I used:
I noticed today my calendar was not syncing.
Appointments added on my PC would not sync to my device.
Appointments added on my device would sync to my PC.
(POSSIBLE PROBLEM #1)
I uninstalled Office 2007, rebooted and installed Office 2003 and the GroupWise connector.
The installation detected an install of GroupWise and asked to remove it…..I said yes.
(POSSIBLE PROBLEM #2)
During that process another message indicated that it was configured to use an ‘OFFLINE’ mailbox (It was configured to use ONLINE mailbox) did I want to delete the box. I said yes.
I launched Outllook 2003 and all was good.
(POSSIBLE PROBLEM #3)
Connected my device and WMDC launched and I got an error indicating a memory read write error cancel or proceed. I told it to proceed and the sync started but never progressed or completed.
I deleted the partnership between my device and computer. It warned that all contacts and mail and appointments synced with only that device would be removed. I said ok.
Connected my device and it removed the partnership and items described above.
I created a new partnership and it synced and everything worked.
