The ActiveSync Stop button disconnects local synchronization
When a Microsoft Windows Powered Pocket PC is connected to Microsoft ActiveSync locally by using
a USB connection, a serial connection, or an infrared connection, tapping the
Stop button on the mobile
device disconnects the ActiveSync session. When you tap the
Sync option on the device after the ActiveSync session disconnects, you may receive the following error message:
Trouble Connecting
Unable to connect with current settings. To change your connection settings, tap Settings.
The
Stop button is designed to control remote syncs (synchronizing over a network). During a local sync
connection, tapping
Stop will disconnect the device from ActiveSync.
To establish or to re-establish a local ActiveSync connection,
physically disconnect and then reconnect your mobile device.
To start or
to stop local synchronization, use the buttons in ActiveSync on the PC. Do not use the
buttons on the mobile device.
To control remote synchronization with a Microsoft Mobile Information Server (MIS), use
the ActiveSync Stop and Sync buttons on your mobile device.
This behavior is by
design.
APPLIES TO
- Microsoft Pocket PC 2002 Software Standard Edition
Community Feedback System
Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high
and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances
are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back.
Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what
didn't.
Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be
correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each
other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're
not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry
edits), please consult a professional.
Thank you for using kbAlertz.com Feedback System.
