activesync and win7
 

anyone able to use the activesync software with win7 x64? i always get an error on mine. anyone have a link to redownload it? it seems windows update got my copy automatically

Re: activesync and win7
 

try this. click start-settings-connections-usb to pc, then uncheck or check the box under activesync. i had the same problem and that fixed it.

I just installed wmdc
on an early beta last year sometime. It seems to have worked. But I haven't tried activesync to see if microsoft has it bundled in the final RTM version...I should check

Re: activesync and win7
 

it's not bundled in final rtm. when i pluged my phone in for the first time, it automatically downloaded WMDC and installed everything for me.

Re: activesync and win7
 

wmdc != activesync ?

is there a difference?

Re: activesync and win7
 

Windows Mobile Device Center (WMDC) is the name of the software that vista and 7 uses to establish an activesync connection with your phone.

Microsoft Activesync is the name of the software that XP uses to establish an activesync connection with your phone.

aw son of a b*****
but i'm glad windows will auto download it that's actually a great step!

Re: activesync and win7
 

it seems when i plugin the phone it never shows up in device manager, odd

Re: activesync and win7
 

plug in your phone and wait a minute and check in the device manager if anything pops up, if not leave it plugged in and do a new device search, there are a couple solutions to your problem you have to just be patient.

I have Windows 7 and the WMDC should be preinstalled and can be found in Control Panel.

Re: activesync and win7
 

it pops up as a guest phone, but it always has an error in the main window. I can browse the file system bu thats it, the syncing never happens

Re: activesync and win7
 

im running windows 7 RC1 and WMDC and have no problems at all. have it working correctly on two computers with windows 7. IIRC WMDC was preinstalled with windows 7, but if its not, you can download it from microsoft. just google "mobile device center".

Re: activesync and win7
 

No i already have it, but my phone only shows up as a guest. is there like a config file or something i can delete or reset? maybe change the drivers?

Re: activesync and win7
 

uninstall wmdc then reboot, then re-install

Re: activesync and win7
 

i reinstalled and this time, i got the initial settings window, so i just hit ok didn't change anything, but now it said something like "i don't have the proper permissions for this device" then it mentioned i should change the port to serial? wtf is up with this program
