Recently a strange problem has developed, I cannot explore my phones data when connected through activesync. I have tried right clicking the activesync icon, and selecting explore, and also doing it through my computer. Neither method works, it just sits there for a while then, says "crititcal communication services have failed to start, try resetting the mobile device and connect again"
I have soft and hard reset, still won't work
But the strange thing is, it will still sync data from my pc, and I can still install programs that use an installer. :?
Anyone got any ideas ? its a right pain not being able to browse my phone to copy files.
Oh, I have also tried re-installing Activesync 3.7 still no joy! :roll:

Usually this problem turns out to be caused by a firewall. Do you have one?
Try turning your firwall off then explore.
Somewhere on this site there are settings to allow you to explore through the firewall.
Thanks Joe_PDA
I did alter my firewall settings the other day, it didn't even occur to me to try turning it off
Works fine now 8)

hi
im a bit new to all this xda stuff.
ok ive just installed active sync 3.5 (from the cd). the phone will sync with my pc, however when i try to explore the xda the window opens and nothing happens. after about a minute this message appears -
critical communications service failed to start. then it says to restart.
tried this and then tried the latest active sync to no avail - what am i doing wrong.
all help much appreciated.
Are you running any firewall software on your PC ?
This can stop communication with the ppc, you can try disabling the software and try to explore again.

Hello all,
I got a problem when synching to my computer. I install activesynch 4.5 on windows XP and then i connect my usb wire to my pc to my MDA vario 4.
Problem is, the phone gets recognized by my pc and I can open the folders. But I am logged in the active sync as guest. I googled for this problem, but everywhere it says I should get a wizard when I connect to the sync program for the first time, but with me it does not :S.
I have tried reinstalling, but no success either.
Can someone assist me with this matter? I would really like to try a new ROM
Thanks and regards,
Are you sure u don't get the wizard?? Sometimes you have to Ctrl+Esc so it can pop up back to the front
Hi,
Yes I am sure unfortunately.
It is really weird.
Hope to see some usefull tips.
Regards,
Every time I have had issues with Active sync, I would just go download it again reinstall it, I wouldn't even bother uninstalling it and it would always mysteriously work...

Hi
Did you try to configure active sync on you phone?!
One time it didn't want to sync yet, then i did a hard reset and all works like a charm... Maybe you installed smething bad like i did...
You can create a backup with Sprite Backup http://www.htc.com/fr/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=133&cat=3&dl_id=19
It creates a backup of everything you want, even settings and messages and make an executable that you can launch after hard resetting
Give it a try
Check your device-id?

I have recently updated to WM6.1 for the startrek, and now i cant connect to activesync 4.5 on my Windows XP SP3 computer. I have googled and searched this site, and nothing works. Does anyone have any suggestions on what to do?
activesync
uninstall activesync from your pc,
make sure you delete any partnerships on your phone,
reinstall activesync and it should connect.

how do i delete all partnerships on my phone?
You need Activesync 4.5 for it to work on Windows Mobile 6, you can download it free from Microsoft.

Edit: Sorry, should have read the post more clearly.
ive uninstalled activesync 4.5, deleted the partnership off my phone, soft reset my device and my computer, re-installed activesync 4.5, and it still wont connect.
settings
Not sure what the problem is if that did not work, only other thing I can think of is to make sure you have the "allow usb connections" box checked in activesyncs connection settings.
p.s. to delete a partnership, you go to the activesync setting on the phone.
well, i even flashed my phone back to the cingular 3125 official rom and it still wont connect. oh well, i have figured out how to flash my phone without a usb connection (using my MicroSD card). so i guess that will work.
HELP! my HTC sense won't load, it stated that the file WifiNoStandby cannot be opened and my i can't even get the phone to connect (have done both soft and hard reset?)
the error message says try reinstalling!
Sounds like you had a cab install go bad and now sense doesn't like you anymore. If you did a hard reset that should have solved your problem... are you sure you did it correctly?
i had installed the DhillonBros CAB files for VOIP and then tried uninstalling them a few weeks back but they did n't uninstall properly....ended up installing the latest PortSip instead.
have tried to hard reset again...and now other files (like the 'CommManagerLink' file cannot be opened. Either it not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found....) this happens when i try to open the Comm Manager....and similar error messages when trying to run other apps/programs
I also had problems with the Data Connection struggling to connect recently so not sure if thats related ?
Hi, my english is not the best but I will try my best.
Got some problems with my HTC HD2 (no custom ROM) and Active Sync 4.5 - I cant connect the Phone to the PC. My computer (WinXP) shows the "connecting..." dialog but nothing happens...
The troubleshooting Program says there is a problem with the IP-configuration...
I unchecked the "high speed data transmission" in "USB to PC", reinstalled ActiveSync, tryed the FixMapi command, restart the DHCP service, installed "ActiveSyncMode.sa.cab" on my phone (don't work), (of cause) deactivate Noton Internet Security 2011... no change.
Strage thing No.1: The Active Sync Program on my HD2 crash instandly after start! I don't know why. Is there a original Active Sync .cab to reinstall it?
Strage thing No.2: I used AS in June without problems but I deleded it some months ago... after reinstall it stops working.
Any ideas? I don't want to hardreset my phone again...
Greetings

OMG, It works. Thank you so much, you made my day!
That was much more easier than I expected!
