Within activesync..."options"...is there a tick in the "contacts" checkbox?

Re: XDA Orbit Activesync Problem

update to Activesync 4.5 if it isn't. Have you tried changing any of the connection settings?

Re: XDA Orbit Activesync Problem

Wait a minute...are you saying the contacts "button" isn't listed down the LHS of Outlook on your PC?...or that it's there but there are no contacts in the right-hand pane?

Re: XDA Orbit Activesync Problem

there has been a development since my last post...I have synchronised again today and now 2 contacts appear out of about 200 that are on my phone..interestingly these two contacts I added to the phone within the past couple of days...the rest were transferred from my previous phone!

Re: XDA Orbit Activesync Problem

Also at the top of the pane it says: "Outlook Data File: (none)(2 items)"
