94 Synchronizing Information With Your Computer

Troubleshooting sync connection problems

The desktop Microsoft ActiveSync 4.0 and later versions utilize a network type of connection with Windows Mobile powered devices, since this allows faster data transfer than a serial USB connection. When the PC is connected to the Internet or a local network, in some cases, the PC may disconnect the connection with your device in favor of the Internet or network connection.

If this happens, tap Start > Settings > Connections tab > USB to PC, then clear the Enable advanced network functionality check box. This makes your PC utilize a serial USB connection with your device.

The USB to PC ( ) icon appears on the Today Screen when serial USB connection is used.
