Aximsiteactivesyncicon I donīt want to use Activesync!!!!

I am sick and tired of usinfg Activesync 4.5. My PC is connected to a company network and it is impossible to connect my X50V with WM5 to my PC. It's not my PPC because at home it works perfectly.

WHAT CAN I USE INSTEAD OF ACTIVESYNC? Any other software can do the same things?

PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!

AS 4.5??? Thought 4.2 was the current non-beta release, according to Microsoft.

Otherwise I take your point. Whichever version of AS is pretty awful. There are "replacements" out there, but as far as I know they all "layer" on top of AS to give extra functionality i.e. they still need AS.

If anyone else knows different please chip in!

Aximsiteactivesyncicon As

AS is not well written and M$ seems to only be willing to do very small incremental steps in development efforts to improve it.. While I'm sure it is a very complex set of code, I'm also relatively sure it can do things a lot better than is happening right now.
There are days when I long for the simplicity of my Palm device, but I couldn't connect to Outlook without a lot of pain.
But I understand they now have their share of problems as well.

And you are correct 4.2 is the current non-beta. However, I'm running 4.5 beta at home and at work successfully. The major change I had to make was to turn off the USB to PC enhanced networking features.

Where is that? On the desktop or Axim? How do you get to it?
