Windows Mobile Device Center Problems

[Carl G35c]

Is anyone else having problems lately? It used to work fine with my Treo 750 or with my Tilt, until a week ago. It will longer start up when the device is connected or by going tp start>programs>WMDC. Ive uninstalled and reinstalled about8 times with no luck. Firewall is off so its not that

That usually happens if you happened to sync with another computer on any of the available connection methods. I recommend you delete the connection profile in WMDC after disconnecting your device, followed by deleting the sync profile from the Sync Manager in Windows Vista (if there is one), then deleting your connection profile on ActiveSynce on your Treo, then restart BOTH your computer and your Treo, and then reconnect and rebuild the sync profile as your Treo or Windows says it should be done... this applies to all Windows Mobile devices...

WMDC sure is finicky little piece of..... nevermind... :-D

I hope it works for you!

I would retart it, but I cant get WMDC or Sync to open on my PC. I think Im just gonna try to upgrade my PC to Ultimate and see it that does it. otherwise Its gonna be dual booting with XP

[fuzzycuffs]

open up windows firewall and add an exception for wmdc.exe (or the specific ports if you do a google search for wmdc ports).

Worked fine for me after that.

Anyone here tired of that installed FBI agent Windows Vista comes with? lol

I myself cannot, and have not ever been able to sync my tytn II to my vista.
I can get the computer to recognize the connection, but cannot get wmdc to.

To pull this off you will need a second account on your Vista machine.
Click start and >> switch user. Login to your alternate windows profile.
Run WMDC. You will notice that it works on this profile. Once it finds your device, log off switch back to your main profile.
In my case this allowed WMDC to continue recognising my device and synchronisation worked fine.


i found this after more than a day on forums!

that worked only one time so the new one found: on the forums..

It requires to edit (or create) a DWORD registry key called “AllowLSP” on the desktop, in the following registry path:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows CE Services]

The possible decimal values are:

0: Bypass LSPs for incoming and outgoing connections.
1: Bypass LSPs for incoming connection and use LSPs for outgoing connection.
2: Use LSPs for incoming and bypass LPSs outgoing connections.
3: Use LSPs for incoming and outgoing connections.
