ActiveSync On New Smartphone Scott 12-15-2007

 I installed ActiveSync for my new AT&T Tilt Smartphone on my WinXP
Professional machine. It works fine the first time, but whenever I
disconnect the device and reconnect it, it won't recognize the phone.
I have to reboot the computer, and then it sycnhes just fine. I
know that ActiveSync has some quirks? Is there anything I can do
about this problem?

Thanks!
Scott

I've seen this cause connection problems on a number of new devices in XP
and Vista.

I tried that, and it immediately disconnected from the device, so it must
be something else.

Are you saying you unchecked while the device was connected? If yes,
uncheck while it's disconnected, then plug it in, I'd be surprised if that
didn't work.

Martin,

You're correct. I had unchecked it while it was connected. So now I've
disconnected
the device and then unchecked "Enable Advanced Network Functionality". That did
the trick. Now it detects the device every time without rebooting.

Cool!

Thanks again! You're a genius!
