Microsoft ActiveSync 4.2 - Sync Tool for WM5 Devices

Microsoft ActiveSync 4.2 (Windows, Freeware, 6.94MB) [via Filehippo] provides a great synchronization experience with Windows-based PCs and Microsoft Outlook right out of the box.

ActiveSync acts as the gateway between your Windows-based PC and Windows Mobile-based device, enabling the transfer of Outlook information, Office documents, pictures, music, videos and applications from your desktop to your device. In addition to synchronizing with a desktop PC, ActiveSync can synchronize directly with Microsoft Exchange Server 2003 so that you can keep your e-mail, calendar data, notes and contact information updated wirelessly when you're away from your PC.

Recent changes:

  • Changes in ActiveSync 4.2 help resolve connectivity related issues with Microsoft Outlook, proxies, partnerships, and connectivity.
  • Microsoft Outlook Improvements: Resolves issues relating to error code 85010014.
  • Proxy/DTPT interaction Improvements: Improved auto configuration of device Connection Manager settings when desktop has no proxy path to the internet.
  • Improved Desktop Pass Thru behavior with ISA proxy failures.
  • Partnership improvements: Better resolution of multiple devices with the same name syncing with the same desktop.
  • Connectivity Improvements: Better handling of VPN clients (resolve unbinding of protocols from our RNDIS adapter). New auto detection of connectivity failure with user diagnostic alerts.
  • ActiveSync 4.2 supports PC sync via USB cable, Bluetooth, or infrared connection.

Take note: this is only for Windows Mobile 5.0-based devices.
