I have an Axim X50v with Windows Mobile 2003SE, Activesync 5.1 and the latest 4.21 PDACookbook release, but when I try to sync with my computer Activesync crashes.

It says syncing 81 or 167 items for PDAcookbook or something (I only have about 13 recipies, must be support files and such), then a message about "looking for changes in CDSL database" or something similar, and about 10 seconds later the whole operation crashes.

All my recipes made it over to the PDA, but activesync still crashes and restarts, crashes and restarts crashes and restarts when syncing PDAcookbook unfortunately.

Is this just continuing bugs with Activesync 4.1 that the team has been working on? Thanks for the awesome product, it is just what I need!

It is working now, perhaps there is still a bug in the system somewhere, but here is the deal:

1) Installed pdacookbook 3.7 something, on my axim with device ID "fxer"

2) updated the rom on the axim, which deletes everything on the axim

3) reinstalled pdacookbook 4.21 and synced, but this time the device ID was "pocket_pc", the default when the unit is reset

4) changed ID back to fxer, now everything syncs fine


Just thought I'd pass along the experience
