Active Sync Contacts problem

[andred]

I am trying to sync up my Treo 650 using active sync and inbox/calendar
synchronize just fine, however, my contacts are not syncing at all. Any
advice is highly appreciated. Thanks.

Your question is for Palm. It is not an Outlook question.

I don't think you can sync a Palm OS device using Active Sync. ActiveSync is
an MS product for Windows mobile/Pocket PC syncing.

ActiveSync is an MS product for Windows mobile/Pocket PC syncing.

While the Treo 650 SmartPhone is a Palm-powered device, Palm is also
marketing the new Treo 700w running WIndows Mobile on an XScale 312 MHz
processor.

Yes I know, and of course that will use ActiveSync, but the OP's 650 won't.

I discovered the same problem today . . . I got the message in the
sync log that ActiveSync is not compatible with this version of
Outlook. Everything else worked fine, but no contact info was moved
to my 650. I'm checking with Palm to see if they intend to update
their software soon to syn to Outlook 2007. Good luck to you.

Even ActiveSync 4.5 Beta 2 doesn't support Outlook 2007.

I have a similar problem. I am trying to sync my HP Ipaq rx1950 using
ActiveSync 4.5 and Outlook 2003. Before updating to ActiveSync 4.5 this
worked fine; now it will sync files and calendar and tasks but will not sync
contacts. It does not appear to have a profile for that. HP Support says it
is a Microsoft profile issue and not an HP issue. Anyone have or solved this
problem yet?
