View Full Version : Storage Card/Outlook problems

I have recently bought an HTC P3600 and all was going well until I configured Outlook to store attachments on my storage card. Very shortly afterwards, 3/4 of the contents of my storage card were gone and my HTC was "seeing" 2 storage cards (the 1st only having a mail attachment directory and the second having both the mail attachment directory and what was left of my card contents). Phoning HTC directly, they admitted that a few people had contacted them with similar problems (essentially Outlook screwing around with the files on a storage card). HEEELLLLP!!:eek:

- Ideally, this wouldn't have been a problem if Active sync did storage cards (another discussion perhaps). Is there a utility (pref. freeware) that will automatiicaly backup/sync storatge cards as soon as the PC sees them?

- I guess it might be that the files are still on the card but that the pointer has been lost; is there a utility (again pref freeware) that could have a go at trying to recover these files?

- Anyone else seen this problem or know of a solution?

Thanks,

Madmike1415.

I'm not sure what WM5 storage is. I am using a Transcend 2GB card.

it's a program that allows the windows mobile to connect to a pc as if it were a usb hard drive, no need for active sync. It can cause the 2 storage card issue if u config messaging to save attachments to the storgae card.
Just wondered if it was this that was causing ur issues.
