Activesync 4.5 final

Ultima · #1 (**permalink**) 02-23-2007, 03:12 AM

Not sure if everyone has noticed yet or not so I figured I'd make a post to let everyone know Microsoft (finally) released Activesync 4.5

It is supposed to be faster than 4.2.

I thought that they stopped dev on AS with 4.5 beta 2 due to Vista sync cneter (or whatever it is called)...anyways downloading now...

Nope... Sync Center is only for Vista. XP and older versions of Windows will continue to use ActiveSync. The main reason for 4.5 is they needed to update it to function correctly with WM6 devices.

Yeah, i've been using since the 2nd day it was released. I haven't noticed anything except a better looking mug and thats it. It was supposed to be more stable and faster too, but I haven't seen a difference. If anyone else has noticed anything different please let us know.

I've had it running since Day 2 also. Big differences for me are problem-free connections and noticeably faster syncs. With every version up through 4.2, I had the troubleshooter window come on about 50% of the time. When I clicked through or cancelled it, connections usually happened by themselves on the second try. This version works perfectly, at last!
