What exactly should I be able to see on the device with ActiveSync
Win XP Sp2, ActiveSync 4.5 Build 5096, Sprint Mogul - ROM 3.35.651.2. Never been flashed - device is two weeks old.
So, after syncing (which works perfectly), I click the Explore button in ActiveSync and instead of calling up anything like 'Windows Mobile Device,' it calls up my C: (Local Folder) of my laptop's HDD, just like regular Windows Explorer would. There is nothing at all relating anywhere to the Mogul in searching with ActiveSync.
I did find the syncing of files in the setup of ActiveSync which I enabled. I am now able to see the My Documents folder on my local HDD which will sync to the device's My Documents folder, but I cannot see anything else at all on the device.
Even clicking on 'Tools/Explore Pocket PPC' in ActiveSync again calls up the C: of my laptop.
I turned off any and all Firewalls, turned off my AVG Free, rebooted, blah blah blah and still nothing.
EDIT: Just an FYI - in regular Windows Explorer, I have already done the:
5. Under the Hidden files and folders section select the radio button labeled Show hidden files and folders.
6.Remove the checkmark from the checkbox labeled Hide extensions for known file types.
7.Remove the checkmark from the checkbox labeled Hide protected operating system files. Once this is done, your Folder Options screen should look similar to the following image.
8.Click OK.
from an earlier thread and it still doesn't show the Mogul's stuff other than the My Documents folder to sync as I said before.
Is this the way it's supposed to be? Or should I be able to explore the entire Mogul device's files through ActiveSync?
Searching all over the place here, Google and MS turned up nothing.
Thanks!
