  2. Activesync error message

    When you set up ActiveSync to sync files between your computer and your windows mobile device, a folder is created on your computer for this purpose. You can find the folder name and path by opening up ActiveSync on your computer, then select Tools >
    Options > highlight FILES & select the Settings button.

    To fix this problem:

    Create a new folder on your desktop computer (call it TEMP or something like that)

    Copy everything (files & folders) from your syncing folder to this new folder.

    Delete everything from the syncing folder and sync your Axim. This will remove everything from the My Documents folder of the Axim.

    Then add a folder from the TEMP folder to the syncing folder and sync your Axim. This will sync this folder to your Axim.

    Assuming that data syncs properly, add the next folder from the TEMP folder to the syncing folder and sync your Axim.

    Then add the next folder from the TEMP folder to the syncing folder and sync your Axim.....

    Proceed in this manner until you've moved everything from the TEMP folder to your syncing folder.

  3. Folder level Sync option in Mail & Calender App Missing!!

    One important feature is missing i.e. Separate Sync option for all folders of an account.

    I have many folders created in my gmail account but I want only the 'Personal' folder to be synced from 'Any time' and for rest of the folders I want it to sync for 'Last 3 months'. But in this app the sync option applies to all the folders in an account.

    The sync option is on 'Folder Level' and not on 'Account Level'.

    Is there any option to sync only a particular folder from the start??
