Help Deploying .NET App to iPAQ

[Ian Mooney]

I am trying to write a VB.NET (2003) app for my iPAQ 2200. The iPAQ is connected to the PC via USB using ActiveSync 3.7.1.
When I press F5 to run the app it builds successfully but fails to deploy to the iPAQ. I select the "DEPLOY" dialog I select "Pocket PC Device" from the device list and hit the DEPLOY button. After about 30 seconds it returns with a dialog "There were deployment errors. Continue?". The "output" tab has the text listed indicating a communications error, however normal ActiveSync activities (sharing files/e-mails etc.) are working fine. Any assistance would be appreciated.

------ Build started: Project: AAA, Configuration: Debug Pocket PC ------
Preparing resources...
Updating references...
Performing main compilation...
Building satellite assemblies...
Visual Studio is ready to deploy AAA


------ Deploy started: Project: AAA, Configuration: Debug Pocket PC ------
Deploying to Pocket PC Device using TCP Connect Transport


Error: Cannot establish a connection. Be sure the device is physically connected to the development computer.
---------------------- Done ----------------------
Build: 1 succeeded, 0 failed, 0 skipped
Deploy: 0 succeeded, 1 failed, 0 skipped

Ian
