Ok I want to syncronise my TyTN II with 2 computers. My computer at work and my laptop at home. I dont want to syncronise contacts on any PC. I do want to sync calendar items in the work computer only.
Now when I open Tools > Options and then settings on ActiveSync on the computer, I see 3 computers
- Microsoft Exchange
- ADMA PC (adma is the company I work at)
- Windows PC
Now my question is, where is my home PC? What is Microsoft Exchange?
Even when I connect my TyTN II to my home laptop, I don't see the name of my laptop.
How do I know which one im connected to?
Also, when the screen is open and tilted and im in phone menu (ready to dial a number) the Windows key (on hard keyboard) doesnt work!
In would guess windows pc is the laptop. If you connect it, then open active sync on the device and it will tell you which pc you are connected to.
Did you try to set up a push email account with an exchange server?

How do I know which one im connected to? Its not highlighted or has a tick sign for me to know. Im also guessing the laptop is the windows pc, but why didnt it pick up the computer name?
It will say " connected" when you are.
It says connected on the main screen, but connected to what? Microsoft Exchange? ADMA PC? or Windows PC?
The Main Screen? If you mean the pc screen, then please read m post above:
Open Activesync on your device, and it will tell you which machine you are connected to.
ahhh I see! Open ActiveSync on my device, I thought you meant device as in laptop/desktop.
Ill try it and get back to this thread.
How to sync Kaiser with activesync over bluetooth? I paired both devices but only one service is available from Kaiser and no services from PC. Anyone with an idea? I'm not so retarded for mobile phone, computers and stuff but this is over my head. I have XP with SP2, paired devices and only one service (dial-up networking) which is seen on PC and offered by Kaiser. No services are available from PC when I look in BT settings in Kaiser. So?
google it. I did. there's lots of instructions out there. once paired you should load active sync on the kaiser and click connect
Read the help file in activesync on pc and search for bluetooth.
The procedure there sorts it out fine.
Yeah, it drove me crazy for a while too.
By what i remember, u cannot choose just 'any' COM port on the kaiser and on the lapop. I had to setup activesync (on PC) to COM7 (this depends on your laptop, mine is a VAIOTX).
Here is what i used

if you cant follow that, you need help

Kireol, you've just made my day! Thanks a lot!
Have Windows XP SP3 and Microsoft ActiveSync 4.5 installed.
Problem is that the ActiveSync will not connect to the Diamond via USB. These are the symptoms on connecting the USB cable:-
1) The "Connect to PC" window pops up on the Diamond, asking whether I would like to ActiveSync (sync with Outlook) or Disk Drive.
2) I choose either one and Diamond pops a dialog to declare that the device is connected.
3) ActiveSync on my pc goes into a "connecting..." attempt, but eventually throws out a "ActiveSync cannot connect to the Windows Mobile powered device" msg.
4) Diamond goes back into its Today screen, nothing happens.
I have tried :
1) disabling/uninstalling my firewall
2) checking/unchecking the Start->Settings->Connection->USB to PC->
"Enable advance network functionality" checkbox
3) Microsoft ActiveSync 4.2
4) a fresh install of windows.
****while I was at this I did manage to get ActiveSync to respond/connect seemingly for a while, during which I recall she popped up a msg saying that since I don't have MS Outlook installed, if I do proceed I can't sync contacts etc. I clicked cancel thinking I should install MS Outlook first since I do want to sync contacts, and I never managed to see this msg again****
Sorry for the lengthy post, appreciate any responses/help from gurus; noob.
I had the same problem with u also at 1st than reinstall Microsoft ActiveSync 4.5
& tick Enable Advance network functionality
now ok liao
think u got to restart pc after u install Microsoft ActiveSync 4.5
Thanks but doesn't solve my problem, still.
Can I check what does you guys' Diamond show up as under Control Panel->System->Device Manager? If you look under Network Adaptors does it show up? Mine only shows up under Windows CE USB Devices->Pocket PC USB Sync. I recall that it should show up under Newwork Adaptors too?
forget to ask u did u install the prog for desktop which come with the cd?

Sorry, what CD/program? I only have a Windows Mobile Interactive CD.
**********
Damn found those CDs. But after installing the Outlook 2007 Trial, still nothing happens. What program for desktop should I be installing? The other CD seems to only contain those like applications and should not affect me?
sorry i forget wrongly.. try to install again & restart ur pc.. see how.. maybe restart ur diamond also
same problem here also

hello..i have the same problem..regardless of what i try it just wont sync..doesnt even
register ive connected my phone..installed..uninstalled..restarted the lot..so any ideas ?
i'm having similar problem. i'm using win xp sp2 and active sync 4.5. when i plugged my diamond to usb, the pc just showed "usb device not recognized" and it was recognized as "unknown device" in device manager.
i tried to uninstall the "unknown device" and reconnect diamond again. it worked but only once. after disconnect and reconnect again, it failed
i've tried using same cable and port for cruise and everything went smooth. dunno what it is...
replying back to my own thread.... i eventually managed to get it to work simply by changing the USB port I was using, not sure why at all.
I just got my diamond connected to my pc successfully. I simply used another usb cable.
Seems diamond is more sensitive to cable quality than other HTC devices.
HTC Diamond, problems with Windows Vista
I have so much problems syncing the Vista with the HTC Diamond. It took me one whole night and the program shows that it is halfway through the hotsync but nothing else happens. Uninstall and reinstall the Active sync programme on my Vista several times. Finally it works. The next day when I did a hotsync with my office computer nothing happens. After that when I got home Vista does not sync with my Diamond again. I do not know the problem is with Vista or my HTC Diamond... I wasted so much time troubleshooting..
I've found the solution. It had nothing to do with
Vista or with WMDC 6.1 it was a setting on my HTC S710. I removed the
following setting:
Step 1: Press Start
Step 2: Select settings
Step 3: Select (6) Connections
Step 4: Select (0) More
Step 5: Select (1) USB to PC
Changing the type of USB connection your device uses can help with problems
connecting ActiveSync.
Step 6: Disable the option - Enable advanced network functionality
Step 7: Press done 3 times
Step 8: Return to main screen.
Step 9: Uninstall unrecognized USB device in device manager (on PC)
Step 10: reboot Phone and reconnect
Hi, in my case it was the USB cable. I replaced the one I used for all my other WM devices before and now even the Diamond can connect.
Cheers,
Derek.
PS: problem and solution seen on both Vista and XP

Work for me too.
Tnx!
Hmm for those that tried and suddenly u got it once,but after that u disconnect and it disappear dont do anything extra!!!
Cos i got the same problem too! instead try to connect and remove it till u get it to sync again. It takes me the most 2 tries to get it to sync though..but if u try like maybe 5-6 times and it dont work..then i cant help sorry.
Btw i'm on Vista Home Premium 32 Bit.
This was what actually happened...i post this in another forum where people are having problems too.
"Hmm me having problems with syncing HTC diamond just now also. I'm on Vista Home Premium 32-Bit. I downloaded and installed the Window Mobile Device Centre(WMDC) 6.1 as they asked me to. WinXP its AutoSync 4.5. I connect and kind of expected this stupid syncing problems will happen to me like many others..zz.
I keep on trying to play with the checkbox in the USB to PC settings(To go there its Start>Settings>Connection Tab>USB To PC), people were saying if u uncheck the box it will sync already.But now my box is checked and it still can sync
Finally i got really fed up and piss..so i uninstall the stupid WMDC program totally without even plugging out the USB cable from my Diamond.Then i restart my pc, and i went to restore the USB to PC settings to ActiveSync with the tick in the checkbox. When Vista startup, i went for 1 last try haha...i just connect the diamond to my PC via the usb cable,and wow all the drivers start to install...and it sync LOL!!! And i go to control panel and was puzzled when WMDC was there even though i uninstalled it !!
And now its just sometimes i plugin it never detect but if i plug in and out ard 1-2times again it sync! I'm a happy man now"

Yes - that's it.
I had the same problems - ActiveSync worked worser and worser - and last week no synchronisation was possible at all.
ActiveSync doesn't open or when it's opened - the PC-ActiveSync stayed grey...
Now - new Cable - not from HTC - and it works fine from the first time on

I'm using XP SP3, ActiveSync 4.5.0 and it works fine. Of course after UNticking (disabling) the advanced network functionality. This advanced network functionality is designed for Vista, not for XP&ActiveSync.
Device manager:
In Device Manager I have the device listed with a separate entry directly from the root called "Windows CE USB Devices" and not under Network or other section. The driver provider is Microsoft and driver version is 4.0.4232.0 (06.10.2004). The driver file is wceusbsh.sys.
See the attached files.
I just don't remember from where I downloaded the driver, but for sure I did not used a CD/DVD delivered with Diamond.
issues synchronising
so i'm using activesync 4.5 with XP SP2 (i think) and i cant get my device to synchronise.
i connect it to the computer and it connects perfectly (i can explore the device and install files on it from my comp and all). It then starts trying to sync, however it never does. After an extended period of time it says "waiting for network" and then just stops synchronising - without actaully syncing any of my files! on the device it says "the server could not be reached. This could be caused by temporary network conditions" as the result and gives a support code of 0x80072EFF. it reports nothing ever synced.
It syncs with another computer in the house nicely -the comp is however ancient and we are getting rid of it! I'm sure its just a setting but i cant find it! Anyone?
Cheers guys!
Issue solved!
Not to worry i found the issue!
if this happens to anyone else this is the fix i found
"Fellow frustrated users I have worked out this issue. What happens is if you restore your computer or change files or link to another computer, Activesync creates multiple datasets on the device which must confuse the program.
With the phone disconnected from the computer, open Programs, ActiveSync, Menu, Options. If you use the scroll down bar, you will find all the datasets. I deleted all the datasets and let ActiveSync create a fresh connection."
I had ActiveSync working with XP and then I got a new computer with Vista so I had to get the Device Center. I tried plugging in the phone with the USB and syncing it and it says "sync complete!" but it hasn't transferred anything to the computer. I had Thunderbird and when it didn't sync with it I installed Outlook but it didn't sync with that either. I went to the settings and checked the box to sync just the Contacts, which is the only thing I want to sync. Anyone know why it isn't doing anything?
Have you got the latest device centre installed:
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/en-us/help/synchronize/device-center-download.mspx
Also, have you got Vista SP1 installed?
Yes to both questions.
Is there any other software that will work? All I want to do is transfer my contacts from my old phone to the computer and then back onto my new phone.
Hey...I running Windows 7 Ultimate and i was getting a similar problem...Try Connecting it with Bluetooth that worked for me...i just figured that out..

If your using windows 7 you need to download the sync center from microsoft. It was originally installed on vista but 7 doesnt have it..
just plug the usb cable and windows will do the rest

Hello.
When in ActiveSync mode try to disable the faster dat syncronization; Win7 should now be able to detect your phone.
Otherwise try to upgrade the USB phone driver in the Device manager (letting Device Manager search the internet for the updated driver).
This worked for me
Best regards
S
My copy of windows 7 (64bit) which i bought on 22nd oct, didnt have the sync software originally installed. when i connected the phone for the first time it automatically downloaded the sync software.

didnt had to install anything.
plugged in my phone, windows devicecenter came up and i was all done.
sounds more like a not working USB port (driver issues) or a win7 RC release
