WMDC & Cingular 2125
All,
I got it working. After trying every other suggestion this is the combination that worked for me. I discovered that Windows Live One Care was shutting down the connection by setting my firewall to "restricted". I turned off my wireless, changed my firewall settings to NOT "Automatically change my firewall protection..." and everything started working. Specific steps... 1) Download and install the beta (http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/t...displayLang=en) 2) Disconnect wireless and turn off the firewall 3) Connect the phone with USB. Watch for security warnings and permit the app to run. (At this point I received a HUGE error message that the application stopped working "Exception trying to display the license agreement"). 4) Disconnect the phone and reconnect. 5) Accept License agreement. 6) WMDC opens and connects to phone. Complete synch. One additional note...I saw another post about setting up the phone for Exchange. That can be done through WDMC (but I would only do that if you NEED to be attached to your PC to synch, the preferred method is to have the phone synch directly through ActiveSynch connections.) Then only use the direct connection to synch Files, Media, and OneNotes. Now if I could only get the ROM update to work!

Bill,,
Same, 6526, maybe the beta couses it to appear to be updated...don't know. Did you try shutting down the firewall? M "Bill Walter" wrote: What version number do you have for WMDC after the updates.
