Activesync starting randomly?

[ghaith_d]

Has anyone else noticed that sometimes activesync just starts randomly? it doesnt show on the main screen but when i hit the x button, i see that activesync is there and activesync is a heavy program and i notice a drop in performance whenever it's running.

Anyone know why this is happening?

Not to be too acerbic, but AS starts all the time, syncs when the wind changes direction and decides to not see or sync with a phone it should know well as it pleases...at least in my experience.

same chore here. wouldn't be as bad if AS didn't slow the system as much.

AS starts randomly as long as you have no Exchange Server specified. At least, that was the case in WM5. Just create an Exchange Server in the AS settings (just use a fake server) and set the sync schedule to manual. You can even delete te fake server you made, in WM5 the schedule was saved and AS would not start randomly anymore. Try it and see if it works.

i didnt find any 'exchange server' in the AS settings :(

Go To Start>Settings>Phone> Time Zone Tab and un-check the auto time/time zone seting box. This will stop the active sync madness. The "fake" server tweak is also a good idea, but the time zone issue is a Kaiser bug.
