Does anyone know how I can synchronize my pocket pc with outlook on Vista? I
have 3 different pocket pcs and none of them synchronize. I cant install
activesync and sync station doesnt let me sync the contacts. I tried
unplugging the device and reconnecting it several times but that did not
work. The computer does detects the device. Someone please help.

Thanks,
Sol
 
ActiveSync isn't usable on Vista I don't think - you have to use the Sync
Center which will pop up during the first plug in of your device. If you
have any drivers for your PDA's, then plonk them in your CD tray before you
plug them in and follow the install steps.

From what I've gathered there's no point in installing Active Sync cuz Sync
Center and Windows Mobile Device Center are "supposed" to do the same. But
from my personal experience so far. My install of Vista Beta 2 (x64) isn't
syncing the contact lists and data from my HP iPaq 2210. and it's kinda
annoying.

I tried installing ActiveSync 4.2 Beta, and it basically said not to bother
installing cuz of the included software. I hope MS has a quick solution
 
PHew and I thought I would have to buy a new PDA.. cuz my HP iPaq 2210 is WM
2003 and not upgradable. I hope they update that PDA Outlook Sync feature
soon cuz I got alot of contacts on it.
