iPaq 2210 Bluetooth sync failure

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

Could be some conflict in COM ports. Try to:

1. Check if the COM port used by activesync matches the one used for the
Serial Local Service in the Widcomm driver. If they don't, change the port
at ActiveSync so that they match.

2. If it still doesn't work, try to change the COM port both in the Widcomm
Driver's Serial Service, and in ActiveSync. For my experience, COM5 works
well in most situations, but it is often used at the Widcomm Driver by the
Serial Client Applications. In this case, you should first change the port
at the Client Applications, to release it, and then at the Local Services.
Sometimes you will need to reboot in the middle. Also, don't forget to
re-pair your device with the computer after that.

Bitman, how is your Bluetooth installed? Is it a USB dongle? Is it connected
directly to your computer, or to a USB HUB? Have you disabled Power
Management for all USB ports you have on your computer?

It is definitely not a bug, it is some kind of configuration problem, since
I do Activesync via Bluetooth for 2 years already, using an MSI adapter and
a Belkin Adapter, both with the Widcomm drivers.

Could you please try COM5? I had the same message you are having when I used
COM6 in the past.

I have tried to connect my USB bluetooth

problem.

Please, let me know if there is any other

If you're using the Bluetooth on a USB Hub,
please try again, directly to your
computer...
