Under XP, Activesync kept my Pocket PC in sync with Outllok -contacts and
Calendar especially importnat to me.
Under Vista Home Premium, Activesync will not run - and the only sync I seem
to be able to establish with Pocket PC is with Media Player - no use to me at
all.
How do I establish a sync with Outlook under Vista??

Attach your Pocket PC and run Windows Update. If your device is compatible
it will offer you to install Windows Mobile Device Center.
