Hey guys.....

I have a 750 with which my problems with Activesync seem to be increasing. When I first received the phone (I got it off of eBay) there was a problem with sync'ing via the cable. When I would plug the phone into the PC (Vista Ultimate 64-bit) the PC would make the connection sounds (noises) but WMDC would never shot the device as being connected. I tried everything I could think of (no I didn't get another cable as the seller assured me he had used that usb cable successfully) Finally, out of the blue it did connect and I was able to name the phone and the PC sees it and all is good. As I feel Ican't trust the cable I then get the BT to connect and then I don't have to rely on the cable (good thing as the cable has never worked since)

BTW, the cable still does exactly the same thing when you attempt to connect, it makes the Vista connect sound but nothing happens, And yes, when you disconnect it also plays the Vista system disconnect sound.

So the other day I change keyboards and consequently have to plug the BT usb adapter into a different usb port. With the BT adapter in the new port all seems OK. Then I install "TimeTTracker" After installing the app I began to have problems with the BT Acticsync. I would initiate a sync and get an error message telling me it was unable to establish a connection due to the port being in use. I uninstalled and then re-installed the connection from both the PC and the 750 and that worked. The two would again do an active sync. Then tonight (for whatever reason) the 750 would not sync again (although the BT properties manager on the PC said the device was connected) I went through the process of deleteing the partnership on both devices and then re-discovering and.... you know the drill. Now no matter what I do or how I do it, the 750 will NOT show Active Sync as a service as part of the partnership process.

Finally, yes I did remove the TimeTTracker app from the 750 bu that has made no difference to the situation.

Any ideas/suggestions would be appreciated and helpful.

Thx

Michael
