Please log in for more thread options I'm sorry for your experience. It never helps the platform when even savvy
folks have such issues. I actually have been running AS4 since it was
released as a developer preview. I am happily syncing several PPCs and a
couple of Smartphones. I always have used Outlook as the default mail client
so that issue didn't appear for me. My only complaint is the removal of IP
sync with the desktop client.
