I am receiving that same error message "ActiveSync cannot connect to the Windows Mobile powered device." This came about in attempting to update for DST. I followed the directions provided just to receive the message above. Well with a little reading I found that AS4.5 is not compatible with Outlook 2000. So I moved back to AS4.2 and was still receiving message. At that point I turned off my Ax removed the battery for 2-3 seconds put back in and turned on and my Ax connected fine, updating for Daylight Savings and everything. BUT....it only works once. In order for it to sync again I have to remove the battery. That works everytime just not very practical. I hope that works for you but not really a long term fix...any further help would be appreciated.
