Sync Windows Vista and HTC Apache (also known as a Sprint PPC6700)

I have the my mobile device HTC Apache (also known as a Sprint PPC6700) which
runs Windows Mobile 5.0 and use to Sync to Windows XP SP2 using ActiveSync
4.0. I also run MS Office 2003.

I have now upgraded to Windows Vista Home Premium. When I plug in the mobile
device Windows Mobile Center recognises it but I can only search for files on
the Pocket PC or open Media Player.

Vista does not sync all the MS Office stuff (contacts, email, calendars
etc). Can someone help me please?

I have the same problem as Stupot (with an IPAQ), and have loaded the file
you suggest - no difference. Any other ideas please?

No, that's the version of Active Sync (that may have been running on a
computer without Vista installed)---has nothing to do with the version of
WINDOWS that is on your iPAQ, and will have no bearing on synching with WMDC
in Vista.
If the version of Windows Mobile on your device is pre-version 2003, it
won't work in Vista with WMDC with all sync features.

"Supported Devices
Windows Mobile Device Center supports Windows Mobile 2003 or later devices."

OK, so it should be 'compatible'.
Check that Troubleshooting link below that I gave you to see if any of the
suggestions there might help you.
Good luck!

Thanks Max. I've been trying to solve this for some days now, and had
already seen a tried those links. From the number of threads on this subject
in Vista Community and elsewhere I am getting ahorrible feeling this is a
Microsoft screw-up that no-one has a solution too. I can only hope that
someone there is wathching the threads and will respond.

If you do have any further ideas...... :)
