Hi,

Does it work after the connection wizard phase? Is there a possibility your cradle/cable is unplugged? Or are you trying to sync wirelessly?

Thanks for your answer Kati.

1. No it doesn't work after the wizard
2. Yes I've a bluetooth activsync connection. It works for several weeks before this glitch.

With USB it works but I loved so much my bluetooth sync :cry:

Okay - I'm going to move this post to the wireless forum - hopefully someone there will be able to help.

Sounds like your BT adapter/Pocket PC partnership is no longer bound to the COM port it was originally assigned to. Repartner your Pocket PC and your desktop, establish the serial connection, verify which COM port it is, and see if that makes any difference.

Thanks Janak, Hopefully I avoid to repartner my ppc. I reinstall bluetooth driver and relaunch the connection wizard. No success. But after a USB sync, I retry and it works ! :roll:
