iPAQ 5555 Messenger & IE problems

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.pocketpc (More info?)

Hi,
Did you set the network connection to Work before synchronizing? Do you
have a partnership with 2 PCs? If so then you need to launch ActiveSync on
the Pocket PC and click on Tools - Options and make sure the correct PC is
selected.
