Default Not all of my contacts are syncing with my new windows mobile dev

I jsut recieved my new windows mobile phone and everything is working well
except that about half of my contacts did not transfer to the device during
the sync. I am using XP Home with the standard Outlook 2003. Any help would
be great.
Thanks
Tim

It is a problem with your version of Activesync, not outlook.

Try posting in microsoft.public.pocketpc.activesync where you will probably
find an answer already provided if you search the news group archives.

Milly,
Thank you I will try updating but I thought that I was already running
Activesync 4.1? I will try and download the latest version and give that a
try.
Thanks for the lead though,
Tim

This IS IN FACT an Outlook problem, not ActiveSync. This problem began
occuring for me when I installed the beta Outlook 2007, then when reverting
back to Outlook 2003 (since contacts wouldn't sync), all changes made in 2007
are visible in 2003 but still will not sync (contacts and calendar).
Additionally, all new changes in 2003 do not sync. I've run scanpst and also
tried modifying the items, but they don't sync. I've tried both activesync
4.1 and 4.2 beta. If the problems have occurred during changes to Outlook,
then it is likely a problem tied to Outlook, not ActiveSync.

Does Outlook receive mail? Does the calendar work? Are you able to compose
meetings and email? Can you use Contacts? Then Outlook is working.

Activesync is NOT a part of Outlook, it is a part of Windows Mobile or
PocketPC, depending on your appliance. We can debate all day about this but
if you want to solve your problem, post in the group I suggested.

I did that two days ago--problem still not solved.

If this is related to the added XML in Office 2007, and that's why they
aren't syncing, then that's an Office problem, not ActiveSync. When I called
Microsoft for support, they wouldn't accept my ActiveSync product ID, they
wanted my Outlook product ID because they said it was an Outlook problem.

Who knows, I just need this thing to work!

....about to switch to Apple.

The last refuge - an empty threat to someone who really couldn't care less -
I don't work for Microsoft:
....about to switch to Apple.

Have fun porting all your apps to the Macintosh platform.
