Sync of BCM (in Vista), With Pocket PC not possible?

[am_box]

I have been unable to find a way of linking BCM with my pocket pc. For some
bizarre reason the Windows Mobility Center does not support my BCM contacts!

I have looked into this and even tried to install the add-in from Microsoft:

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...14-7143-41D9-84A9-BD628DB7B6A0&displaylang=en

This provides me with the error message:

"Installer has not detected Microsoft ActiveSync Version 4.2 or above. . . .
.."

If anyone has found a way to get all this to work if you please let me know.

Thanks in advance, Adam

Adam,

I have done this successfully. What type of mobile device are you attempting
to synch with? I had to update the ROM on my WM device to the latest
firmware in order for Vista to work with it.

BTW, the BCM mobile add in from MS is pretty lame. It syncs your data into
a separate storage application on the device and you primarily need to
navigate 2 handed with a stylus. Also, there is no name search quick dial or
caller ID functionality. I would recommend that you instead take a look at
the Pocket Mirror Professional for Windows Mobile found at www.chapura.com.
