Can anyone help me! I’ve spent a whole week trying to fix this extremely
frustrating problem with no success!
I’m using a laptop connected to the internet from a wireless router on a
home network. I have Outlook 2003 with POP3 e-mail accounts running under
Windows XP Professional SP2.
I upgraded the ROM on my Pocket PC phone from WM 2003 SE to WM5. Using the
Pocket PC in its cradle connected to my laptop via USB, sync of Outlook data
to and from my laptop and using ActiveSync 4.1 worked perfectly with my old
WM 2003 setup. Now after the ROM upgrade to WM 5, only files, Notes and
favorites sync over to the Pocket PC. No appointments, contacts or emails
sync over. However, "Explore the Pocket PC" works fine. With the ActiveSync
dialogue box open, if I click on "view status", I get the error message.
"ActiveSync encountered a problem on the desktop: Support code 85010014".
ActiveSync of Outlook from my
Because it is essential to me to have my desktop Outlook data on my Pocket
PC, I have spent many hours searching the web and I see a large number of
posts describing the same problem. So it seems to me that this is a very
common problem! Some but not all folks seem to get it to work after
deleting/re-installing Outlook or deleting and creating a new partnership but
I have had no success. I just seem to be going around in circles. Support
code 85010014 is said to be a server error I believe?
Interestingly, ActiveSync works OK for me on my desktop in my network. This
has an Ethernet connection to the router. However, my desktop is not my
primary computer.
I have tried the following on my wireless laptop with no success:-
Soft and hard resets of the Pocket PC
Scanned my Outlook pst file for errors using scanpst.exe
Completely unisntalled Outlook and re-installed it
Tried with a new Outlook .pst file
Uninstalled AS 4.1 and re-installed it
Deleted the partnership and created a new one
Tried with macros on and off in Outlook
Uninstalled the news reader client (IntraVnews) I have as a plugin on Outlook
Disabled the Windows firewall
Disabled my Kaspersky anti – virus software
Below are relevant sites - computer experts (I’m not one) might recognise
something in there which I need to do to get a fix to make ActiveSync sync
all my Outlook data over:-

(Towards the bottom of the above web page, the poster "Duglaw" has a
transcript of a MS support person who took control of his PC and fixed the
problem - I made the registry changes mentioned in the transcript but again
no luck).
Below is my wcesmgr.log file from one of my unsuccessful sync attempts. Can
anyone tell from this log what my problem is? The first mention of "error" in
is in the line that has "Error Partner" a couple of lines up from the bottom.
Note I didn't tick all the Outlook item options in ActiveSync dialogue box. I
just ticked one or two of them.
