Re: ActiveSync on XP x64

Hi,
Microsoft has not announced any plans to create a custom version of
ActiveSync for XP x64.

I would suggest that you contact your Pocket PC OEM for assistance with
ActiveSync 3.8 installation. They are responsible for supporting it.

Hi,
I checked with some friends at Microsoft. They are running ActiveSync 3.8
on XP x64. So there's something else going on here.

Have you tried disabling the software firewall in SP2?

While it is possible, it ActiveSync is not supported on any server product.
so thats one thing..... if your running professional x64, do you have
problems installing other programs or hardware?
