Please log in for more thread options Please note all of the issues mentioning "can not sync" that have been
posted since I started this thread. I followed MS instructions for updating
DST on my PDA and boy did I get "stuffed." I guess I am not the only lonely
person that Microsoft is ignoring because of their somewhat crappy
ActiveSync application!
It's been several weeks and I can not find a solution. Technet is
worthless, and Google yields nothing useful. I could not even enter the DST
webcast that hopefully would expose me to some subject matter experts. I've
better things to do with my time than to figure out how to enter the webcast
so I gave up (I do have a valid "passport" account).
End result? My Dell Axim x50v PDA is useless for using contacts, calendar,
and recent emails. Hopefully, someone with some clout from MS will weigh in
with and action plan. Else, WM 5.0/6.0 (anyone know how to upgrade to WM
6.0?) is worthless as far as I am concerned.
