Hi Carl,

Try running the Scanpst utility to check for any corruption in the .pst file
of Outlook. Do a search for scanpst.exe on your computer and run a check on
the pst file.

When I try to synch PC Contacts to Device one way (device to show only
what is on PC) it fails every time. Have performed countless repetitions
of removing pairing from PC and Device plus reinstallations of Active Sync
4.1 and 4.2 to no avail.

Has anyone cracked this yet?

Could it be caused by a recent XP/Office update, as I notice several
others who have recently developed the problem in the last few days after
weeks or more of trouble free synching?
