All of a sudden my activesync has stopped working. I can't connect via USB or bluetooth. It worked fine in the past! Now, if I plug in my Tilt with the USB it gives me an error message saying Activesync cannot connect, and gives me the option of troubleshooting. Going through the troubleshooting process yeilds no diagnosis; everything appears to be working ok.
If I try and sync with bluetooth, I see the Tilt connect, and then disconnect a few seconds later. No error messages, no nothing.
My Tilt's activesync window displays the message:
"To synchronize your device with a desktop computer, install the synchronization software from the Getting Started Disc included with your device on your PC." It once displayed info such as my last sync, etc.
I've tried reinstalling activesync, and disabled my firewalls.
Anybody else have this issue, or know of a fix?

Sounds like something has changed on your PC, perhaps via a Windows Update. Have you checked to see if your firewall is the culprit?
You may also want to do a clean uninstall and then reinstall Activeswync 4.5 and create a new partnership with your device.
You can also try restoring your PC back to a date that you were able to use Activesync....
This happens to me rather frequently (I am looking for an ActiveSync replacement because of it).
However, I fix it by either soft reset of the device, PC, or sometimes both. If that doesn't work, you need to delete the partnership with the PC and reconnect.

...any solutions yet?
I just got my kaiser 3 weeks ago after using a wizard for almost 2 years. what a great phone the wizard was... I kinda miss using it! Anyhow, i just experienced the sudden activesync failure. I now get random activesync openings on my kaiser with the message "To synchronize your device with a desktop computer... yada yada".
I have already setup a bogus server and set the scheduling to manual.
I have compared the wizard registry to the kaiser registry by searching every instance of 'activesync' and couldnt find anything.
I also deleted all instances of activesync in the notification queue and had memmaid rebuild it.
The device will connect to activesync but pops an error message that it could not synchronize and goes into a guest account setting. So for now I am having to use pimbackup to backup my data on the kaiser, bluetooth it to my wizard, then sync the wizard with my laptop to get the data into outlook. I am considering a hard reset but kind of want to wait until the at&t 6.1 official Rom comes out. I am also considering Chapura Pocketmirror Professional which worked well on an old Ipaq i had (wm2k3) that had sync issues. I also want to get this resolved so i can practice loading a new rom on the wizard. So....
Anyone have a fix yet? I hope so!!!
Oh, and for reference (to answer questions from other threads), my kaiser battery drains 4 to 5 times faster than the wizard in side by side use, and the kaiser definitely does not have a transflective screen while the wizard does... bummer. but the kaiser is tremednously faster!
1. Disconnect the device from your computer.
2. Try going to your device and select:
start->settings->connections->USB to PC.
3. Uncheck "enable advanced network functionality"
4. Reconnect the device.
Active Sync....
Hi,
You can try "PocketMirror® Professional 2.2.4 for Windows Mobile", its a pretty good syncronization tool, but it costs a few bucks...
I've been using the trial version of PocketMirror and must say its pretty good with my TYTN 2.
Regs,
The Reaper.
... my thoughts exactly
yeah, i tried the usb to pc option as well. even downloaded a cab from another thread that allowed me to choose rndis or usb mode. neither worked. I will probably use pocketmirror pro as well...
Hi, I just flashed a new ROM on my Orbit that works brilliantly, no issues at all, apart from the fact that the computer now doesn't see the device at all. Not even the blo-blong sound when you connect any USB device. The only thing I get connecting the cable is charging the battery. And if I start Active Sync on my Orbit I get the same message as mystic_nacho:
"To synchronize your device with a desktop computer, install the synchronization software from the Getting Started Disc included with your device on your PC"
I just tried an hard reset to try to fix the issue - no success..
Before flashing everything was fine..
Btw, my wife Diamond doesn't connect either, and it never did it: something related to the TouchFlo thing?
Any idea?
The ROM I flashed is
gullums TouchFlo2D beta 4
update
I found the Diamond 'Getting started disc' and installed the Windows Mobile resources tool...
The disc I have from the Orbit box is for Windows Mobile 5, I guess it's not worth to find it out and try...
Nothing changed, anyway.
update 2
Yesterday night out of the blue - while the Orbit was still connected to the pc - ActiveSync started to work... F. knows....
i had the same problem - sync was working fine and then stopped. what worked for me was to go to USB to PC under settings and uncheck "enable faster data syncronization".
hi,
i also had sync. problems in the past.
searched for months.. since i figured out that some registry entries on my PC where missing!
imported the mayor setting from my brothers PC and TADAAAAAA. problem solved.
search my threads and maybe you 've luck with my soloution!

Have you recently used a memory cleaning Application like memmaid, Clear Temp, or SKTools? You might have cleaned out some important notification files, like repllog,exe that is used for activesync.
I had the same thing happen to me when I first used these cleaners. I had to do a hard reset on the phone to make it work again found out about the remedies listed below after the reset.
I have heard others were successful repairing these notification Queue's with MemMaid. You can hold your stylus on the repllog,exe notification, and a popup up will appear, asking you to Recreate ActiveSync, or rebuild notification Queue. I don't know if this feature is available in Clear Temp, or SK tools.
I've also heard of restoring activesync by unchecking all of the folders, syncing, and then adding each folder back to the list, one by one, until all is restored.
I too have just developed the same problem.
I have 2 TYTN II' one will sync fine the other wont.
It all went horribly wrong after I tried to install Wisbar and an Ipod theme, after I uninstalled it, cos it didn't work I found I could no longer sync with USB to PC and the sync option is greyed out on my phone. The phone will charge with some of my usb cables, but now even seems fussy about which cable will charge and some now won't.
I am given to wondering whether the usb connection on my Phone is the problem...everything else seems to be working fine.
I have even installed different ROMS via the memory card still the problem persists.
I would love someone to come up with a fix
**UPDATE**
Well I now have got it working, in my case I was right, the usb connection on the phone was to blame. I took it to a mobile repair shop, I told the guy that I thought it was faulty he took one look at it and said that I had a bent pin, he got a little tool out and teased it back into position, sure enough when I got home it worked fine so now I am able to sync again. Not sure how long it will last though.
**Update 2**
Failed again, at least I know what's wrong now.
I'm needing help. I flashed to the new ROM, 1.62.502.0. I did the Soft Reset thing to remove the Bloatware and restored my PIM with Sprite. After I reset my device ID I connected with Active Sync.
Now I'm stuck with Active Sync appearently in the process of "Synchronizing", however it's doing it for two hours....and it still isn't completed. I blew out the Active Sync on the PC and reloaded it, and now it is showing a second PC but still is the synchronizing endless loop...and I only have it set to sync a few files and Notes.
Can someone help me out with any suggestions?
Since no one has offered to help....Does anyone know of a place where I can get some help?
An update: I was able to sync just fine before I flashed to AT&T's new ROM. Plus I am still able to sync with my laptop, so the problem appears to be with my PC. I can also load programs and explore my PPC with the PC, however the sync process never proceeds past the "synchronizing" phase, i.e. the "processing" and then to the "connected" phase. I have un-installed and reloaded ActiveSync several times.
If no one knows ar has a suggestion....can someone point me to a third party syncronizing program....I'm really up the creek here.....
I think you would have more luck at the At&t customer forums, as people here generally don't use OEM Rom's.

ActiveSync BOOSTER
Is there a way to boost up speed of Sync
Is there a any software or Cab file for it ?
Also want to know after we sync Phone
It keeps repeating to sync, is there a way to stop it ?
With removing the phone
Please Help
I’ve had the diamond for approx 1 month and regularly sync it to my work and home pc running XP and Vista respectively. Up until now I’ve never had a problem with activesync to any of my past smartphones or PPC’s.
My diamond has all of a sudden decided that it doesn’t want to sync anymore. It connects ok and I can transfer files back and forth it just won’t sync.
I’ve searched the forum and found similar symptoms but nothing has worked.
I’ve deleted the partnership from the device and both pc’s, created new partnerships which on first connection does actually sync (sometimes) but from then on either says “looking for changes” or “synchronising” until it times out giving the error message “Synchronising cannot be completed successfully. Reconnect your device and try again. If the problem persists, see the Microsoft Activesync Troubleshooter in Microsoft Help on your desktop computer”
I’ve tried the help, I’ve let it do its own diagnostic, I’ve unchecked the “enable advanced network functionality” option in USB to PC. I’ve soft reset, hard reset, the only thing I haven’t done is re-flash a new rom.
Does anybody know if flashing a new rom/radio will solve the problem. I would normally just try it but I spent an hour yesterday after I hard reset putting everything back to the way I like it only to find that it synced the first time but wouldn’t work again.
If anyone has any other suggestions before a re-flash I would welcome them. Otherwise I’ll bite the bullet and hope for the best.
I’m currently running Duttys V1.6 Radio version 1.00.25.07
I Had this problem
Hey fella, i was having this problem and after doing a little research i found the following.. If you constantly activate and deactivate the mobile (pair and unpair) you can corrupt A/S on the system. The only way i got around this was to uninstall active sync and re-install it again.
Hope this helps...!
I've never been able to get activesync to work harmoniously between relationships with two PCs.
Most syncs with a second machine after successful syncs with a first tend to result in errors that require my intervention, especially if an item of data has been changed. Drives me mad sometimes, and I often need to spend more time fixing these errors than it would take to manually update stuff across my three devices. I get the feeling the comparison/processing engine activesync uses is no where near sophisticated or clever enough to carry out the processing, and when it does have errors, the scope for my intervention to help it in its quandary are fairly hopeless.
I'm hoping that as devices like the diamond bring this lets face, it fundamentally great, but nevertheless fundamentally flawed platform to the masses, then Microsoft will have to put more effort into activesync and how it copes with relationships across two (or perhaps even more in future) PCs.
Ps, neomagik, actual connection, which sometimes has hiccups, has never been a big problem for me, (a few minutes in the various settings usually sorts these), but I've been using activesync for about 4 years before my diamond with with my HP4700 and various double PC partnerships along the way, and can confidently say that the problems I describe are not device related, but are the result of activesync inadequacies.
Thanks fyew-jit-tiv but I've tried that already. Also, it wont sync to WMDC in Vista either and it's unlikely that the same fault occured in AS and WMDC at the same time. This is what leads me to believe it's the Diamond and not the PC's.
Been there, done that....
Suprised you've not had this issue earlier...I've been suffering with Activesync issues for years
There are lots of ways to diagnose and resolve but perhaps you just might want to get the sledgehammer out...this mostly works for me....(I hope your familiar with Outlook!)
On one PC (I would use the XP "older" Op system one) export your synced data from Outlook to a .pst or .ost file for backup and later import (after delete & tidy stuff you no longer need in Calander/Contacts/Tasks, etc)
then
Delete all your data in Outlook, create a new empty .pst (connect to same), delete old .pst
then
delete partnership with device (to be sure), and remove same data (Contacts/Calander etc) from device
then
You can then check the exported/saved .pst for errors (I can't remember the MS programme...google for it), once satisifed OK import all you info back into Outlook
then
Synchronise with new partnership to device.
Hopefully so far so good
(sometimes I even rename the device-partnersip etc in case something "residual" there stays behind and corrupts something )
Next
Prior to connecting device with WORK PC:
Delete all previously synced data in Outlook and delete partnership there. I then make sure that in Activesync (before establishing new partnership) that I click option for one way data transfer ie replace items on computer with those from device
then
...plug in and establish new partnership, hopefully no problems....data populates computer from device. Once established then put back how you prefer data to be transfered (if there is a conflict etc)
Return home and partnership there still synchronised, Hopefully this works
If you find that there are still issues, you can un-Check and Check each synced area (Contacts, Calander, Tasks, Synced Files) independently to see where the conflict is.....
...I have found conflicts mostly occur with:
i) Calander: Birthdays/Anniversarys (probably as they are extended recurring events)
ii) Calnder: Meetings etc that might be recurring
There are real issues if using old versions of Outlook (2000 for me at work ) syncing with most recent ones!!
Sorry for the mad typing but best I can do for a "Quick" reply....Good luck !!
Studz, I know what you mean, I often get errors where it asks you to "resolve item" and after a while of playing it usually works. This is different, it won't sync at all.

Presume you have done the most obvious, and that is un-install and re-install Activesync and the Vista sync programme on both PC's ?

I had this once I think a year or so back. Tried so many things that I can't remember what finally fixed it.
I think a good place to start though, like PJ6363 says, is do a clean sweep... re-install activesync on both machines, and I would also reinitialise your Outlook Account (.pst) on the master PC and delete on all other devices.
Good luck, and tell us how you get on.

Neomagik... Sorry i could help any further fella.. As i said in last post i had this problem and i just re-installed A/S... The only other thing i done after i un-installed A/S was to run a registry cleaner.!
P.s i don't think is down to the Diamond. I Was having this problem with the Touch (elf) too...

well, i have similar issue w/ sync and finally, i solved the problem by changing the sync cable.
Thanks folks,
I'm going to try all of these.
@ Snufkin, I'm using two different sync cables so I know this is not the problem.
My diamond did funny things when the screen would turn off quickly after connecting because i set it not to charge when connected. Gave all sorts of weird errors.
Now, screen stays on because i want it to charge and sync completes now, still takes a while though.
You guys are aware that WM6.1 has a problem syncing with 2 computers, aren't you?
Some people claim they managed to do it and I believe them, only none of the voodoo worked for me. Never had that problem with WM5 and 6.

there is a long thread about this issue somewhere conclusion 100% in wm 6.1 you can not sync with 2 PC. this is a wm 6.1. related problem.
i can sync with 2 pC my athena with wm 6 but i can not do it with the diamond or trinity. don't even try it. it will mes you the whole outlook!
Sync with WM6.1....off course u can!
Been syncing my Kaiser and now Diamond with WM6.1 for well over a year with 2 PC's. Must have done it at least 20 times with various devices and ROM's. Kicker is that my work has W2000 & O2000, and at home I use XP and O2007....still works!!
I'm not saying I don't occasionally have issues...but I do carry more than 1000 contacts and and extended calander with numerous recurring entries
.....like I've posted before (as many others) there are issues, but nothing insurmountable. I'd be lost if I could not sync my work PC, homw PC and PDA
Read around and you'll see........
here u are, i found the thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=377823
i tried long and hard to sync my diamond with 2 pc. all i got is errors and double tasks and appointments. got tired and gave up! my contacts list is too precious to play with!. i do have over 600 contacts and 1300 numbers (tlf, mobile, fax).
in order to have my diamond sync with 2 pc i syinc it with one, then i sync my athena and sync with the second....lol...this is my way to have 2 pc and 2 htc devices in sync.
I had my Diamond (and previous Trinity) synced with 2 pc's. No major problems until now.
It's dead
OK, I have tried the steps suggested by PJ6363 with no success. It won’t sync to the first pc let alone the second.
I then decided to dig out the old C500. After blowing the dust off I hard reset to clear out any info left on it. Plugged it in and hey presto, immediate sync. Unplugged it and tried again, another sync. Added a contact whilst synced and it updated straight away.
I then deleted all partnerships on pc and diamond and plugged it in. It went through the usual setup and connected to the device as before but surprise surprise, no sync.
Does this not mean that the data on the PC is fine and it is a problem with the Diamond, possibly a hardware problem?
Unless anyone else can suggest anything I’m going to flash a new rom but I have a strong suspicion it will not make a difference.

It looks like something other than what I have been pointing out....see here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=377823
I think you need to get serious and re-install the actual software itself on the device (hard reset), appears that Activesync on PC's is good...but would re-install there anyway!!
Look at it this way, you have found a sweet excuse to update your ROM withthe latest version and clean up your contacts/calander etc....should not be an issue with a fresh ROM install (try SwiftB 6.0....excellent!!)...let us know how you get on
Ah ha....forgot something critical...if you are syncing using older version of Windows (2000) or Outlook ...or any issues syncing for that matter, then I found that you MUST go to Settings->Connections->USB to PC and turn off Enable Advanced Network Functionality...have you done this?
I'm starting to fear if something is broken in the phone because no matter what I do, it fails to work with mac osX..
Any suggestions on how to get eg. WmWifiRouter work in macs, or even how to sync it with some synchronizer application -because none of them fails to connect me whether it's BT or usb.
I think the right procedure is to launch eg. missing sync or syncmate what else are there? which is the most reliable?), then connect the usb-cable, then choose Activesync as connection type and that's it?
Doesnt work for me No matter whether 'enable advanced network' is on or off. The applications simply fail to detect my device.
If I choose the disk drive, it works for a while as an external drive but soon stops responding or turns helluva slow.. I've tried copying pictures and movies from it for months now (tried this every now and then), but I'm running clueless on what to do
What are the correct bluetooth settings in mac with diamond? I cant get it to work either.
I want to use it as proper high-end toy, I even have 1mbit wireless net in it when using it with WmWifiRouter, but even that doesnt work for me and I cant understand why Help pls
I use Missing Sync for Windows Mobile, and I connect to Bluetooth. It syncs seamlessly and transfer files without problems.
You can find the program and / or the information here
Another option is Sync Mate, it's free for Standard version but you can buy additional options (iTunes sync etc) in the Expert Edition.

Prefer it to Missing Sync personally.....
Missingsync vs. Syncmate
I tried both and my suggestion is not to try it. Reason being if you use Missingsync, use missingsync only. If you use Syncmate, use syncmate only.
However, Missingsync is better due to its more stable system. Syncmate tends to double copy items in calendar and contacts. It'll be an annoying mess to clean. I did it and it's no fun when you have over 500 contacts in your phone.
Anyway, that's my recommendation.

Only had that issue with an early beta of Syncmate, never had that problem again.
I have an expert edition from Eltima (sponsored by Eltima for testing their beta's ).
I must admit that the software had some hickups when it still was a beta, but I nowadays it's running like clockwork.
My 2ct's (euro cts = 2.75 $cts )
I'm going crazy trying to figure out why syncmate won't sync with my phone. I installed the driver on my phone, yet it doesn't connect with the program. I open syncmate and it never recognizes I have a phone plugged in. I've followed syncmate's steps to no success. Does anybody know what to do?
I tried both for a season and found MissingSync to be a generation ahead. It's been out for quite sometime and is very stable. I had hard time syncing with Syncmate. I sync my device via BT and works like a champ. It's a bit expensive but well worth the price.
My gsm diamond is arriving soon and I'm trying to make sure everything will work with my macbook pro (OSX Leopard), so I've read up on syncing programs for mac and upgrading hard spl etc.
My problem is that all the files I've come across for upgrading hard spl and radio are in .exe format. Is it possible to upgrade using a mac or do I need a pc with xp/vista?
As far as I know syncMate/MissingSync can't read and open .exe
(I've searched ways of "opening the contents" of .exe using stuffit and file juicer with the possibility of a .cab file being inside but to no avail. I may be barking up the wrong tree with this one...)
Sorry I've been searching for aages but couldn't find an answer. Is there a solution to what seems like a fairly simple problem...??
You can sync your WM device with your mac as explained before.
To upgrade the ROM, you will need a Windows installation. Personally, I tried to do it through a virtual machine with WMWare but never succeeded (It seems that once the device reboot, it is not recognized anymore by the virtual machine)

Actually, i always upgrade using the Mac:
-take the signed_image.nbh and rename it to DAIMIMG.NBH
-connect the diamond as a disc
-copy the file to the internal storage
-flash by rebooting into bootloader (volume down& back plus reset)
Safe simple & fast!
I've got a MacBook Pro, and I've been working around a bunch of these issues. First, why are you trying to cable sync your WinMo phone? You are better off keeping everything in the cloud. I have an exchange server at work, so all my contacts, calendar events, and emails sync OTA.
Also, Google has a new beta out:
http://www.google.com/support/mobile/bin/answer.py?answer=138636&topic=14299
This lets you use your gmail account with Activesync if you don't have an exchange account. You can manage all your contacts, etc OTA for free. Much better than paying for wonky syncing software. Plus, when you flash your phone a million times, it's pretty easy to get everything back on
As far as flashing, you will need to flash from the bootloader from the internal memory if you don't use Boot Camp. Parallels won't cut it, either (not sure about VMWare); you have to be in windows for everything to work smoothly. However, it is nice that the Diamond can be put into mass storage mode; it makes copying files to the diamond a piece of cake.

The problem with that is that you have to delete everythin on the internal storage first. (I had to the last time)

First of all, I've tried searching numerous places but can't seem to duplicate my issue. My issue is, of course, is that I am getting sync errors from HardSPL.exe/Automatic Flash when trying to HardSPL the phone.
I am using ActiveSync and the phone is Connected and Sync'd - both the phone and ActiveSync reporting the phone is sync'd. I can explore the phone and the folders, etc.. located on the phone. However, when I try to run HardSPL.exe on my PC -> Automatic Flash Mode I am getting Fatal Error - The phone is not sync'd with the PC. I have unchecked Fast Data Connection; I'm not in Flight mode; Internet is active on both PC and Phone (tried on and off); Firewall and Anti-Virus are off; Hard Reset the Phone; I've re-installed Active Sync, as well as Deleted/Re-Installed my Mobile Device Profile.
I am at a loss. Any ideas? If I overlooked something please refer me.
Thanks

I am using ActiveSync and the phone is Connected and Sync'd - both the phone and ActiveSync reporting the phone is sync'd. I can explore the phone and the folders, etc.. located on the phone. However, when I try to run HardSPL.exe on my PC -> Automatic Flash Mode I am getting Fatal Error - The phone is not sync'd with the PC. I have unchecked Fast Data Connection; I'm not in Flight mode; Internet is active on both PC and Phone (tried on and off); Firewall and Anti-Virus are off; Hard Reset the Phone; I've re-installed Active Sync, as well as Deleted/Re-Installed my Mobile Device Profile.
I am at a loss. Any ideas? If I overlooked something please refer me.
Thanks

could you quote the full error message? you are probably getting two messages, I would need to see the exact error text of the first message.
and as for the second message that you are probably getting - is it offering the enablerapi CAB link by any chance? (btw you didn't mention whether you installed the CAB file or not. this may be needed to get it going.)
PS: it would have been better to post in the main Hard-SPL thread
Usually I've seen this problem solved by ensuring you are running with admin rights as well as confirming that you uncheck the high speed sync option for activesync on USB.
