Since upgrading to Vista, I can only sync Outlook items via the mobile
server, not locally with my PC. I can sync favorites, documents etc. locally
and can successfully connect via USB and Bluetooth to sync these items. As
soon as I add NOTES or any other Outlook specific folders, I get an error -
"unable to connect to network server, please reset your system or call your
administrator". The equipment I use is a Lenovo T60p laptop and a Verizon
700w Treo. My theory is that something is getting in the way of a MAPI
session being established with the local machine but no other logs or errors
are generated to help me move forward to resolve this. If I didn't have a
mobile server at my company, I would not be able to sync any Outlook items,
just local, file based data.

Any insights or pointers would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
You can sync with one desktop and Exchange with Windows Mobile 5.0. You may
have to delete the partnerships in ActiveSync on the Treo 700w to setup the
first one that allows this. You cannot sync with 2 desktops the calendar,
contacts and tasks.

Hi Peter,

Try the following and see if that helps.

1) Delete your current partnership on the device. (You can do this by going
to Mobile Device Settings -> End partnership when the device is not
connected or you can delete the partnership directly from the device)

2) Repair your Outlook profile you are trying to sync against.

3) Reboot your machine.

4) Connect your device and set up a new partnership.

Thanks,
Abdulkadar
