Updated Vista / WMDC / CF 3.0 compatible CABviaActiveSync now available

[Guest Paul (MVP)]

Ah! I guess it's a problem with the new .net CF that has been pushed out on Windows Update?

[Guest claymen]

I too am seeing the same error.

We recently pushed .net 3.5 internally so I assume it broke around the same time.

[Guest foxcot]

Don't why this suddenly stopped working for me on XP SP2- either it was when I upgraded to WM6 or following a Windows update patch. It was a great program which hopefullly can be fixed

[Guest pdtp]

hey Paul any updates on this?

[Guest underdog2025]

Paul,

You might want to know I switched back to version 1.3 of your application, with the nag screen and this version seems to work without the error, might help track down the issue.

[Guest Paul (MVP)]

Ah cool, interesting, thanks!

P

[Guest one_solo]

I'm also having this error, maybe it was due to the Net 3.5

Can you fix that ?? Also 1.4 in vista, x32 and x64, is very unstable, sometimes work sometimes not.

I'm using right now v1.3 and it's working like a charm. I managed to grab the version on the web, why don't upload again v1.3 (I didn't find any link on modaco) ?? It could be useful to a lot of people.

Paul, any chance of fixing this bug. This app was really useful and I'm sad to see it not working for SO long. Or at least post the source code so I can fix it. Thanks.

[Guest indiekiduk]

Cool sure enough 1.3 doesn't have the bug that 1.4 has, get it here:

Thanks for the tip. Got the same issue here.

Is there something that 1.3 doesn't have compared with 1.4?

Absolutly Amazing Paul. Keep up the good work. I have been having some amazing experience on these forums since I joined them last week :D

Hiya,

Anyone got version 1.3 as I can't get 1.4 working with XP Sp 3!:(

How scary is that :o

I installed v1.4 on my Vista machine this morning, tried it (to push my Resco Explorer 7.01 update across :(), got the same error as everyone else and thought....."Hmm, must have a search on MoDaCo for a Vista compatible version...."

....and then you go and post one!!!

Thanks Paul, much appreciated!

Mark.

Not working for me!

Every cab I've tried gives me the error message: "Access to the path 'C:\Windows\WindowsMobile\' is denied"

This is with Vista x64 SP1. UAC is enabled and working fine for everything else.

[Guest Shadowfixeruk]

Just got it working on Vista SP1! :D

The application needs to be granted write access to the folder where you have it installed (typicaly c:\program files\cabviaactivesync).

[Guest M1DUL]

I also have this problem on Windows XP Home SP3. Please can you tell me how to granted write access to the folder.

Many Thanks for any Help/Info

[Guest pidsw]

This may be a false positive, but apparently the file has a virus.

[Guest Paul (MVP)]

False positive!

Nothing detected using Mcafee here?

yeah, paul is evil like that :D

muhahaha

[Guest Rawden]

Hi,

I have just download this program and testing it on a CAB file which I've created in Visual Studio and it works fine. Just so I know, can this utility only be used in a manual way? i.e. The user has to right-click on the CAB file on the desktop machine to get it to install on the device? I'm looking for a way to deploy my cab file programatically - or without the user's intervention.

Thanks.

Rawden.

[Guest melvynadam]

Just installed on XP SP3. I've used this app for a long time (thanks) but just got a new PC. Every cab file I try to install results in "file not found".
