Hi,.
Please file a complaint with your OEM regarding the way Windows Mobile Device Center synchronizes. Also, you can e-mail mswish@xxxxxxxxxxxxx to ask for the features to be restored.

- including the ability to select and resolve conflicts at the item level and
handle completed tasks across muliple PCs and the device. I have also had
other people contact me since I posted this - I'm not the only person having
these issues.

Hi,
Here's some answers:
1. WMDC does not allow the user to make decisions on a per conflict basis.
You can only decide which one will be overwritten - the PC or the device.
This is the same for ActiveSync 4.x as well.
2. As for the tasks, keep in mind that the tasks are synchronized from the
device to the first PC when they appear completed so they won't be there
again to sync to the second PC.
Have you called the OEM of your Windows Mobile device for support? They are
responsible for supporting you with WMDC and ActiveSync.
