Hello,
I'm using Outlook 2003 SP2, Active Sync 4.5 and a Palm Treo 700W. And for
as long as I can remember, I have had the following problems:
-- The first time I sync my Treo, Outlook spikes the processor to 100% and
the RAM utilization climbs until it finally crashes (or I kill it in task
manager).
If Outlook crashes and restarts, or if I kill it in task mgr then restart
it, I can re-sync the device all day long without problems provided I don't
restart the computer.
I'm trying to sync contacts, calendar and files -- not email. And I'm not
using the exchange server settings for sync.
The second problem is with the calendar. Once I go through the procedure
above, no appointments will sync unless I have created them myself. For
appointments I have accepted from others, I have to open each appointment,
type a few characters and do a carriage return, then re-save the appointment
-- and it will immediately sync with my device. Nothing else works to move
these appointments down to the device.
I have tried to re-install Office 2003 but it did not help. I've done a
hard reset of my Treo, but it did not help. The same problem occurred with
previous versions of Active Sync -- I had hoped 4.5 would fix the problem,
but it did not.
It's getting really tiresome to go through this dance every time I want to
sync my device. So I'm writing to ask if anybody has seen these problems and
I appreciate any advice you can offer to me.
Thank you!
Scott
