Changing my PC i sync to - What do i do?

[jsstevo]

I'm changing the PC i sync my IPAQ 2210 to. I'm moving all my files accross (Outlook e-mails, tasks, etc.). I'll install Activesync on the new PC, but what do i do then? Do i have to perform a hard reset on the IPAQ to clear mem before syncing to new pc and to remove old settings?

Also would this create duplicate e-mails, etc.


Many Thanks

If you copy everything over to the same folders, the only thing that you should have to do is create your PPC partnership on the new PC. I will warn that there is a chance that ActiveSync will create duplicates, but you should not lose anything. Backup just in case though, ActiveSync is unpredictable.

Have a Happy Thanksgiving

The way to ensure you don't have duplicates is to start with an empty Outlook on your new desktop, and to let the Pocket PC fill it with data.

but i don't back-up all of my e-mails, just certain folders. I've got 1,000's at work!

In the end i decided to do a hard reset and then activesync to the new pc.

I worked great. Just remember to save any files!! I did, but only just remembered!!



Cheers all
