Oh you flatterer you....!

Tips? Well, this is what I try to do:

1. Avoid making changes on BOTH PC and PPC side to avoid "Unresolved items." (I'm not saying you cannot make changes on both sides, but sync each change first.)

2. Sync regularly to avoid data loss.

3. Be familiar with the Settings on ActiveSync. That way, if something should go wrong, you have an idea how it might be fixed. (Keep in mind some features are greyed out when your PPC is connected. Open up AS when not connected to take a look.)

4. Be aware that when you install programs, the default location is Main Memory. Be sure to uncheck "Install program into the default installation folder" to make sure you remember to select location.

5. Remember that AS can be quite buggy and not to pull your hair our if something should go wrong!

I can't think of anymore...

Hope that helps. :)
