Hi all,

Up till now I had Toshiba PPC e750 / WM2003 synching with Win XP & AS 3.8.

I just bought a HTC Cruise with WM6 Prof and have seen WM6 prof not
compatible with Activesync 3.8 (in fact AS 4.5 had losty many features
!!!) - Could you confirm ?

I'm quite afraid of this move, as I red many customer complaints about AS
4.5, and losses of data !!

How can I keep my Tosh partnership while installing new AS4.5 ?

Is there any procedure to follow ? Any URL would be appreciated.

Thks a lot

Hi Franky,

WM6.0 is not compatible with ActiveSync 3.8. You will need to install
ActiveSync 4.2 or higher. If you are upgrading from a WM2003 device then
yes you will find some of the features are missing in WM5.0 and higher
versions.

I have never lost data after upgrading but have encountered a few random
episodes of duplication. Its been a while since I upgraded to ActiveSync
4.5 but if memory serves me right, it will not detect the original
partnership after you install it. You will need to recreate the
partnership.

Would suggest you to perform a complete sync before you install ActiveSync
4.5 as you will then have all the data on your PC. After installing 4.5,
setup a partnership and the very same data should synchronize back to your
mobile device.
