Make sure that the com port(s) that are accessible to activesync are 3-9. you can't bt sync with coms 10 or up. its a strange problem. to rename the com ports on the computer go to Control Panel -> System ->Hardware -> Device Manager then scroll down to where it says Ports (Com and LPT) and open that sub-directory. Then re-name one of the com ports that are shown to 3,4,5,6,7,8 or 9.
I have to do this occasionally to keep the syncing working. for some reason my com ports have lives of their own and keep re-naming themselves lol. Good luck.
