[missing-sync-pocketpc-talk] Man what a disappointment maybe someone can help...

[Ken Freeman]

The SMT 5600 seems to connect better if you initiate the pairing from the
phone and NOT the Mac Bluetooth Setup Assistant. So delete your partnership
and then create it again using the handheld options. Even then, some users
have problems connecting two times in a row via Bluetooth.

We are aware of this and working on an update to fix that. When a fix is
available we will announce to this list.

As for your iCal data, some users are getting the "Can't add records to
device." You might want to try and edit/delete the records mentioned by name
in the iSync error (e.g. Music Theory 112), or review the Missing Sync log
too for errors.

Try turning the phone off, remove the battery, wait 30 seconds and then hook
it all back up and try to sync again, but if the errors continue please send
a problem report to Support using the form at
http://www.markspace.com/support/request_windowsmobile.html. Be sure to
include the Missing Sync log file (~/Library/Logs/MissingSync for Windows
Mobile.log) and a backup of your iCal data.
