I've been having a hell of a time trying to sync. I installed activesync 3.5 then uninstalled it, then reinstalled it, then uninstalled it again, and then I downloaded and installed 3.6, but that wasn't any better. The first time after installing activesync it works ok transfering tasks and contacts(this has happened everytime I reinstalled it), then it won't work again unless I uninstall and reinstall. If and when it has worked, I then hit explore in activesync and I can't see or move any files in or out of My Device. I then got an error telling me to try and restart to fix the problem, and if that doesn't work to reinstall activesync. Well I restarted and it didn't help. Although when it restarted the my ax beeped like it was syncing, and showed that as the last sync , but on my laptop all I got was the green spinning activesync logo in my system tray that was trying to connect, as I explained in my other post Located Here. I also tried syncing by initiating the sync from the ax, but that gave me a "trouble connecting" error. I don't know what the problem is but I'm starting to get frustrated.

***EDIT***
Update: I unplug and replug my cradle and I get a connection back. Activesync looks to make sure contacts and such are up tp date, but when I click explore in activesync the error is " Critical communications services have failed to start. To fix...BLAH BLAH restart or reinstall." The whole time the Ax is still synced with my computer until I click stop on the AX. What should the setting be for the ax and for the main computer? I'm wondering if I fooled with settings and screwed something up.

Any help is appreciated.
