Unresolved Sync Error

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

Hi Gordon,

Search for a program called scanpst.exe. This is a small utility included
with Microsoft Outlook which will scan your *.pst file (the file that
contains your personal information) for possible corruption and attempt to
repair it. The default location of the file under Win XP:

C:\Program Files\Common Files\System\Mapi\1033\NT\scanpst.exe

Note: C: might need to be replaced with appropriate drive letter.

You will need to run it against the .pst file. If you are unable to locate
the path of the .pst file, do the following:

1. Open Outlook.
2. Click File -> Data File Management
3. This should list all the PST files that are present. Click Open Folder
and you should find the storage path of your *.pst file.

In addition, in Outlook there is a feature on the Help Menu called
Detect and Repair... This will scan your information for possible defects
and also attempt to repair the data.

Raj and Beverly,

Thanks both for your comments, but for some reason this morning when I
sync'd, ActSync came up with the calender and tasks that could not be Sybc'd
so I just deleted them from my PPC and re-entered. Things OK after that.

If it happens again I'll try your solutions and report back.

Thanks again

Gordon

Berverly;

What's the "save interval"?

The calender date was set at 26 March 2005.


Thanks Gordon
