Mobility Site - View Single Post - backup in active-sync

jo-KING · 05-19-05, 08:12 AM

HI, i'm a complete rooky to the scene. I just bought a second-hand Axim X5, along with a Pretec compactGPS-LP.

the backup-battery was always stating "low battery", even when I changed it. I read a thread on the forum with this problem, suggesting a hard-reset.

I first made a backup using Active-sync 3.8. (still need the GPS-program + drivers for gps....

now i've got the battery working perfectly, but I can't restore my backup!

active-sync claims that my device is nog the same as the one with which i made the backup-file ?

when I log in, with my pocket-pc using the same name as before, it says I have to rename it, because that user allready exists & that I would have to become guest-user.

so I still have the backup file (about 10mb) but I can't get it back on my ppc ????

any help?

thanks;
Jo-KING
