HELP - need to restore data

PitaWhizkid · 06-01-06, 10:13 AM

I'm newbie here so I need all the help I can get.

I usually rely completely on my PocketPC and update ALL of my info on there, so I only sync with my home computer once a week. Recently noticed that some items weren't syncing, but didn't do much about it since all my info was on my PDA. I'm switching from my PocketPC to a Smartphone and wanted to transfer my data and wanted make sure it was all synced to my computer. Uninstalled and re-installed ActiveSync and all my unsynced issues were resolved.

Problem - I noticed that all my appointments prior to yesterday (when I synced) are no longer on my PDA. PLEASE help! Is there anyway to retrieve these past appointments and re-sync to get them back onto my PDA?

why would you need past appointments on your pda?

best bet, go into activesync on your computer. hit tools > options. click on the calendar, and click on settings

change iot to "synchronize all appointments" or change the setting of "synchronize only" to a higher amount than "the past x weeks"

that should work. unless you're on WM5, then all bets are off

Is there any way to access the actual calendar or address book data on the desktop pc? I know it is there, but can't find it any where.
