Guest Wheelz24UK Posted October 11, 2006 Report Posted October 11, 2006 Hi all, I've had this problem with a nuber of versions of activsync now. When I connect a phone to my pc (Vario, M3100) it starts to sync. Great. But.. it takes focus away from whatever I'm working on at the moment for a split second and then gives it back. It doesn't come to the front or anything like that, just makes the window i'm working in lose focus. This get really unworkable and I have to disconnect my phone. Has anyone else had this problem, and if so how did you resolve it?
Guest mandt Posted October 11, 2006 Report Posted October 11, 2006 Haven't seen this problem myself, but to fix it you could install TweakUI . With it (among many other cool tricks) you can set the mouse behaviour so that whatever window your mouse is in is the one that is in focus :rolleyes:

Guest mandt Posted October 11, 2006 Report Posted October 11, 2006 There's also a setting to 'stop windows stealing focus' have you tried that one?
Guest Wheelz24UK Posted October 11, 2006 Report Posted October 11, 2006 There's also a setting to 'stop windows stealing focus' have you tried that one? I had that ticked too. I've tried top open Outlook first then sync and yep, that seems to stop it. Don't know why this happends though. Thanks all for your suggestions.
