Guest ckazli Posted January 22, 2003 Report Posted January 22, 2003 For the "not PC using people" (they are some...), I use ActiveSync correctly (a little bit slow... of course) with Virtual PC 5.04 (latest version before 6), USB activated, of course. I didn't really try on my running version, 5.0.2, as I had the common problem of putting the phone in the craddle before Activesync's active. Don't, it will not work, as on real PCs. Instead, I updated to 5.0.4 to have more chances of it to work, followed theese ActiveSync rules, and started to work as if I had a 486DX266, but it works. You can post if you've got a Mac and tried it with no success, I will help if I can.
Guest vampyre69 Posted January 27, 2003 Report Posted January 27, 2003 Am going to try tomorrow night on VPC 6 Windows XP Pro under OS X will let you know. 'A Mac user using a Microsoft product, oh dear god what have I done sorry Steve Jobs please forgive me please Oh, Oh noooo please not the Mac traitor laser canon pleasssseeee dear god noooooo' 'Sorry but Apple fans must not be defiant you have betrayed your own, you must face your destiny' 'Ohh I'm sorry I have been a mac addict for 8 years and if you can't come up with a decent pda/phone I'm going to use the next best thing, here Mr. Gates take my hard earned £130 from me before Mr. Jobs kills me' ;)
Guest vampyre69 Posted January 29, 2003 Report Posted January 29, 2003 Well here goes.... Installed Win XP Pro !!! - OK Installed ActiveSync 3.6 from CD - Failed gets to 91% and hangs. Installed ActiveSynce Downloaded from MS site - gets 91% left it awhile and finished all OK. So there you have and ohh VPC 6 with XP Pro aint all that bad on my G4/933 its actually the same speed as my mates 1.6 ghz P4 now thats saying something. I don't like XP as it is a bit unresponsive at times so will also try under Win 2K Pro. Hope this helps any mac people out there. 'Quick hide here comes mr. Jobs with the Traitor Laser Canon'
Guest ckazli Posted January 29, 2003 Report Posted January 29, 2003 Trying now with Win95 (I only got a G3 300 at home, so...). Think will be faster, and maybe more reliable than XP (never touched, never installed, i come from PC, but now with osX, don't want to hear about theese XPressions anymore). Couldn't unlock th SPV with Win98, too slow to copy the files before home screen!
