All of a sudden, Outlook won't sync. All of my other programs will sync thru active sync, not it's not hardware.

I've deleted ActiveSync, and re-installed 4.5. No luck.

I did a hard reset; still no good.

I get a support code 8501014, which means Oulook won't sync. (duh).

I checked all of the possible problems listed on the Microsoft site. Outlook IS the default mail server. I ran thru all of their "trouble shooting", with no luck.

Anyone else run into this problem?

Or better yet, does anyone know of a program that works like Palm Desktop, replacing outlook calendar, notes and tasks?

Any comments or suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Well, I discovered a great little app that will sync an unlocked WM5 device with Mozilla mail and calendar. Since I use Firefox anyway, switching everything over to Thunderbird was a no-brainer.

It's called BirdieSync: http://www.birdiesync.com/home.html

I loaded the calendar plug-in, and everything syncs with it. Nice and clean.

thought others might be interested in this.....

Have you installed any firewall software on your PC lately and forgotten to turn it off?

Nope.

Tried turning the firewall off.

But Birdiesync works. :D
