I recently upgraded from an xda mini-s to a stellar and would like to install skype as I had before. Having searched this forum it was suggested I download Skype for windows Mobile for my stellar - however I've just tried this as an soon as you try and run the .exe I get an error message saying it's nt a valid pocket pc application - can anyone help? I notice anothher message here implies it's not compatible... so I'm a little confused. I'd like skype IM as a minimum on my Stallar if you can help... Thanks lots!
Try connecting PDA to PC, wait till u get a connection via Active Sync then try to install the exe. file from your PC.

My settings are ok and any other connection (weather, quick gps and so on are working)
If i make hard reset it works again... Can somedoby help me so i have not to format my kaiser please? Thanx
Hi,i think that it's the same problem like Live messenger ...
- turn off the phone connection in comm manager
- turn on wifi
- soft reset
- test the update connection.If it's ok,turn on again phone connection.
windows update found no updates
any updates during release from kaiser?
I've had my Tilt for a few months and still no Updates from M$. It appears to be just more bloatware.

If true, it makes you wonder why its there, and if MS or HTC put it there
It could be MS planned to use it, but releasing 6.1 will be more profitable
I am very curious to find te reason I have this problem... has somebody the same like me.....????
I'm getting the same issue now as well. Initially I was able to use the windows update even thought it would search and find no new updates for the phone. Now i'm throwing the same error as your phone, simpagirl. I've already master reseted the device twice and still can't connect. Anyone else have a clue or maybe HTC/microsoft disabled/stopped/not going to use the windows update anymore?
Windows Update
Hi all
Now same issue for me too: Server Error
Maybe or the server is down or Win is updating something new!
Ciao
Hi Everyone I have just brought this great phone, however I was told the phone has worldmate every time I try to activate this software I get error message saying
there was error during online activation process.please synchronize your device or check internet conection.
When I conect the phone to my desktop I can sync email and stuff just not the this software.
Could it be I have not set up the device correctly to my desktop?
Also can you only conect to one pc. I cant seem to conect to my laptop.
thank you for all you help
I recently got a new PC with Vista Ultimat. Synchronizing the phone has been a nitemare.
If i hook the phone up, the computer beeps in recognition; I can even browse files on the phone sometimes. But ActiveSynch says I'm disconnected, the phone says I'm connected.
I find the only way I can get the synch to happen is to install MS Mobile Device Center 6.1 . I have the phone hooked up during the install, and during the install the phone is recognized and it will synch.
Any ideas on improving this. I"m surprised I didn't find this and a solution already out here (maybe using wrong search terms.).
Thanks

Thansk for pointing that out, but it didn't help.
And, interestingly, even reinstalling WMDC doesn't always work either.
What rom are you using? I had problems synching when I flashed Garmin dk2 rom. But all others work fine.
Try this, it worked for me.
Go to start<<settings<<connections tab. Then select the USB to PC icon. Uncheck enable advanced network functionality. Restart PPC and then try to re-sync.
Hey everybody,
Im trying to connect my diamond via mobile center so that I can manage my contacts more comfortable.
My problem is........suprise...it doesnt work -.-
When I plug in my diamond and choose "Active Sync" on the device, somethings trying to install (WM whatever device) and then it stops with the message that drivers are not found and device is not installed properly.
When I open Mobile Device center, I see that after I plug it in it starts searching but never comes to an end, and the installation also fails.
Any idea what went wrong? I have Vista 32bit SP2.
I also installed the setup for more drivers for mobile center. I uninstalled it a thousand times but it simply doesnt find my device and the drivers for WM device...
Thanks for ur help !!
Works for me, but browsing files on my diamond via Mobile Center never worked.
Well nice that it works for you, tell the whole world buddy but why do you write in this thread when u dont have a solution or the same prob....
Any updates on this one?
Have the error message Code 10, device cannot be startet
Code 10 is a Driver problem.
What hardware is reporting the error?
Have you updated the Driver and directed it so System 32?
try to install this one

Hi, I have install windows 7 rc , and i cant have my contacts in diamond to sync with outlook. It seems active sync is not compatible with win7 . Is there a solution ? Thanks ,
in win 7 is no active sync... you have to use mobile device center
hi
this works for me on windows 7 you can download it from here
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/en-us/help/synchronize/device-center-download.mspx
When you connect your diamond to win7, it will automatically download drivers and mobile device center . To get Outlook is your own responsibility. You probably have a 30 day trial version on one of the disks that followed your phone, but it will still sync after those 30 days.
EDIT: I have no clue wether the trial version works in win7 or not.

Ι downloaded the above. I didnt see nothning to change. I have installed Windows Mobile Device Center and it looks to work ok. I see diamond from the pc as a hard disc, and i can use it. I also have internet to diamond throw the pc. The phone is recognized by the pc as Touch Diamond P3700, and i have the icon of sync sender in taskbar. What I dont have? The one i am interested more.. My contacts to outlook to pc.. I have installed office 2003 to the pc , and i have outlook 2003. There , contacts are empty.
I dint see to Windows Mobile Device Center to have any option to transfer contacts from phone to outlook.. Any help ?
edit... Ok I just solve it. I went mobile device settings-change content sync settings. In contact there a press sync settings ,and there it writes synconize from Pc1 Pc2. Only one was "ticked" I tick and the other , and contacts went to my pc... Very complicated i think..
Hi, I'm on Windows 7 64 bit build 7100. Trying to get my phone to sync, have installed WMDC 6.1 64 bit version, plug my Diamond in and Windows Update fails on trying to install the driver, just get PocketPC USB Sync in Device Manager with a status of "This device cannot start (Code 10)."
Any ideas where I am going wrong on this? Had no issues on Vista 64bit getting it to work, have repeated all the same steps so am scratching my head somewhat.
Edit: Solved it, turns out it was my USB extension lead, tried plugging directly into the computer and it worked perfectly lol

I think I have researched all the treads on this pretty well now & I've tried all the above including rolling back to before I 1st allowed the WDM to install to no avail. I still can't get my Diamond talking to W7 WDM still talks to my old Vista Ult machine though.
Everything looks good the updater downloads drivers then the WDM then the installs happen the device gets found and it sort of knows its a HTC device plugged into a USB port but WDM and Sync Center both don't believe its there.
I've tried resetting the Diamond complete reboots of the computer, I've changed all settings in the PC to USB menu on the Diamond (another thread) and this only changes the Device from Generic Serial to Generic NDIS but still WDM won't connect.
So has anyone got any further suggestions I can't believe its this hard every one else has no probs what might I be doing wrong (I think the fact the device is a Generic Serial not a Diamond might be a hint but I can't prove it)

Stephen Lane,
I have exactly the same problem. Did you found a solution or still facing this problem?
You can use Microsoft Windows Mobile Device Center 6.1. It's free to download by MS.

Thanx alot people! This thread saved my day!
WMDC does not recognize my G1. He detect that there is a unidentified device and searching the driver to web but after a minute it was NOT successfully installed. How come? LOL.
