Anycome come accross the scenario of having to (or being forced to) delete an existing email account and then trying to recreate it?
I have deleted my POP3 account, and then tried to recreate it using the same name as previously. I get a pop up box telling me that 'that name is already assigned to an account, please choose a unique name' or something like that.
This behaviour persists even after soft reset. Does anyone know where the name(s) of the email accounts are stored on the TyTN II - is it the registry or one of the system databases? I've searched the registry for the name of the account I was trying to use and come up with nothing.
I remember having the same problem with the original TyTN, is there a fix for this little bug?

The Messaging app is really weird. This might not be the same issue with yours, but I got one strange problem as well before:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=330224&highlight=one+more+Cannot+recognize
Cannot find any solution elsewhere, tried a lot of forums, Microsoft WinMo forum ...
I ended up with hard-reset ... and it works. Now, I dont have the issue anymore (knock3 ... ).
I know this is an old thread but it might help future users

I know this is an old reply and an even older thread, but I have to say thank you! I searched through tons of threads that did not help me solve this issue. I got a replacement phone of same model and moved the Sprite Backup data to the new phone which went fine, I just couldn't pull up the old email account even though TouchFlo saw it. It just wouldn't show up in Messaging and I couldn't recreate the account cause it kept saying an account by that name already existed. This tool worked great to fix my issue. Thanks again!

Welcome to the forum. It's really refreshing to see a first time poster who's read the rules, searched (comprehensively) and found their own solution without starting a duplicate thread. It just goes to show, the information is usually out there for the taking if you persist. I wish more people behaved this way.
Hi folks!
Sorry if this has been covered elsewhere but my search results showed nothing so i had to ask as this is driving my mad.
When i hit START on my WM6 handset, as you will all have, i have a list of previously used programms.
Well with installing Slither's Cube (awesome by the way and more to come soon i'm told... see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=336234), i've been back and for the testing icon links so my screen after hitting START is 'more' than full, it's at bursting point
So my question is this.
Is there any way you can reset it back to scratch / basic?
There MUST be... isn't there???
Message back soon before i end up crying

tweaks2k2 can clear up the recently used program. Dont know the exact registry key tho, sorry!

No worries mate. One more thing. This is another one that is winding me up something rotten.
Example... on a Nokia, you can choose the view you wish to have in your contacts list by going into options etc etc and selecting either... SIM ONLY, SIM AND PHONE MEMORY or just PHONE MEMORY.
Obviously the PHONE MEMORY on a WM5 or 6 would be OUTLOOK so... how do you display OUTLOOK ONLY???
Am i making sense here?! lol
If i can't get the answer to this in the next day or so then i'll have to New Thread it cus this one drives me mad to!

Delete everything in [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Shell\TaskSwitch] and soft reset asap.

For hiding SIM contacts, thus displaying only "Outlook" contacts:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Phone\"ShowSIM"=dword:00000000]

I have to put you to the test now!!!
Ok, the XDA Orbit has a built in GPS as does the Kaiser yes.
No, what the Orbit DOES have that the Kaiser doesn't is... yes, you guessed it... an FM Radio.
So... would it be possible to get the FM Radio settings off the Orbit ROM and patch them into the Kaiser ROM?
Anything you can think of or trick you have up your very knowledgeable sleeve at all?
This should test you!!!

THAT I don't know. I am a Trinity and a Touch user and these tweaks remain after soft reset but maybe it's different with Kaiser.

Steve
P.S. Did you take a look at my question about the FM Radio at all?
unless the kaiser magically gets a am/fm radio, no
but if you have an unlimited data plan and/or wifi in the area just stream it!

Clear Temp you say? Now that's a 'sound safe' suggestion. Could i ask you for a step by step for that if possible please dude?
Thanks, Steve

Sadly not. On the 3 network, maybe that would be possible but not on my Orange plan!
Ok so the CAB for the Outlook works lovely. Thanks for that. Awesome job
Just trying this Clear Temp for the START button question i asked. What was your suggestion to that one again please dude? Sorry about this, i haven't been to bed in over 28 hours and i'm starting to fade badly

Hi all
Wonder if anyone can help with this. I use myTouch Diamond to sync to home and work PCs' Home is XP, work is Windows 2000. Outlook 2007 on both.
The phone ROM is 1.37.405.1.
I am getting a recurring error during sync:
Activesync encountered a problem on the desktop. Support code: 86000107
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I have tried deleting partnerships and starting afresh, reoving and re-adding contacts and calendar in Options, all kinds of methods. The only thing that solves it is the fresh start: however, it only works once! When I go to the work PC, same thing happens, I delete the partnership and start again, it works fine... until I go to the home PC...
Is there some WM6 problem with Activesync? Any pointers as to how to solves this?
Thanks for any help.
I'm sure you used the Search facility and didn't find an answer to your question, right?
WRONG! Don't be lazy - there's a search button. Use it before starting new, useless threads.
Pretty rude response. Just ignore me next time if my posts trouble you in any way.
Yes, I have used the search function. I have tried the suggested steps.
There is no reliable solution to this that I can see. Perhaps you can enlighten me.
There are a few solutions to be found that work temporarily, yes. But they all seem to fail when you sync with your other PC and then come back to sync again with the first.
Have you tried unchecking all the sync folders, then adding them back in one at a time to see if one is causing the issue...
or this...
1: unplug usb cable if you are still connecting it with your WINDOWS MOBILE
2: Open MS Outlook (I m using 2007 as an example), go to File- > New -> Outlook Data File , and create a new PST file (what ever name/ location)
3: In outlook, Tools ->Account settings, then click Data Files tab, click the new PST file that you had just created, and set as default , then restart outlook
4: delete activesync partnarship in both Windows Mobile and in your Desktop
5: Plug the WM to the USB port, and it should sync properly again.
6: restore the backup by using MS Outlook's Import and export function

I'm sorry if I seemed rude. However, if you read the responses you KNOW there is no solution. You also know where the thread discussing this is, so why open a new one?

Why not just accept that sometimes a new thread will open on a subject that is a persistent problem, especially from someone new to the forum? Or,even better, just don't bother with your unhelpful remarks. If you have something useful to add, let's hear it.
There are several threads that mention the topic.
Windoze9t8, thanks, I have indeed tried this. It does, as do some of the other fixes, resolve the problem for that particular activesync session. But when I go from computer 1 to computer 2 (on both of which I have done the above with the .pst file), on computer 2 I am back to square one with the 86000107 error.

Sorry I cant be of more help as I dont not use activesync much as I'm using the 4smartphone service which syncs mainly over wireless.
It's a WM 6.1 bug. WM 6.0 works just fine. ATM there is no known solution.
I hope that sums it up.
Thanks guys.
Sadly, before reading that, in my attempts to get this to work I have completely banjaxed my Outlook 2007 so that I can neither uninstall or reinstall it, nor will system restore do anything.
Hi there,
I'm fairly new to my Diamond but I love it a great deal.
There is one thing that disturbs me though and that is that I can't sort my phone book other than Name, which is "Last, First", and by Company (I don't bother about Company). I would like to be able to sort my contacts in First, Last Name order, I have a about 300 names in my list and it is really confusing when I don't find who I'm looking for anymore.
I would like to hear with you if there is a way to hack the register or any other solution for my issue.
And no, 3rd party application is not an option, sure, it would do the trick but I want to use and have easy access from the Contact tab.
All help appreciated.
Thanks!
there is a way, but it's not going to be fun, and you may want to do it on the computer in outlook instead.
Outlook on your PC and Windows mobile default to filing contacts as Last Name, First Name as you have found.
however, if you edit a contact, they both have a File as option. here you can select various different options, one of which being first name last name.
it's a bastard having to do it on all contacts, which is why you might want to do it on the computer instead.
hopefully, someone knows of a reg edit that'll fix it.

I developed an Outlook form a few years back that goes through all Contacts and sets the File As fields to First Name Last Name. Is this what you're after? I still have it but haven't used it in ages. Worked perfectly back then.
Feel free to try it (attached and I would recommend backing up your Outlook contacts in a PST first)

I will definitely try your form and I really hope that it does the trick.
But I think there should be a register hack out there somewhere.

In your contacts, on the Diamond, you have the option : "save as", but you've gotta do it manually for each one. Open a contact, tab the right soft-key (menu) choose edit, there you go

Hello,
At my HTC diamond contact list, my contacts are listed by lastname (like: lastname, firstname) How can i change this, its a little annoying.
Thanks!
I think you have to edit each contact and change the "File As" setting.
Thanks, but that a lot of work. There must be an other way, isnt it?

Wow, I was just wondering the same thing... Low and behold, its on the first page. Thanks all!
A hell of a lot easier than going through and doing 259 contacts individually!
Works great!!
Now, if I could get the pictures embedded into my contacts so that I don't have to reapply them. Oh well!
