Activesync Reatore
Thanx Mindhack but the problem is that Activesync thinks that the new Axim (new C1 Processor) is a different mobile device and won't restore to it. I've tried un-installing all references to activesync after saving the 'backup.stg' in a different directory, making a brand new partnership wit the new Axim ( the courier took the old one when he delivered the replacement ). It's the same problem I has with an Ipaq upgrade from 3600 to 3800 - the processor changed and it wouldn't restore a backup. Compaq however issued a patch which effectively converted the 'stg' file to work with the new processor and all was well. The patch was made specifically for Ipaqs so won't work. If Compaq can do it I'm sure Dell could - I'm just not sure how quickly the might get round to it. I know from various boards that there are a lot of 'B2' people getting 'C1' replacements so I'm sure that this might become a MAJOR problem. Anyway Tech Support say they will get back to me about this. If they do I'll post any info.
