    Hi,

    I am having problems running activesync with the Toshiba Bluetooth Stack to sync my PDA (HP IPaq 2495). I am able to transfer files but ActiveSync just cannot detect my PDA using the COM port that I have specified.

    Any ideas?

    Also, why is it that I am not able to see the Bluetooth Device Control thing in Control Panel (the default windows one). I am seeing the Toshiba one though.

    I haven't done anything with syncing, but I know in the past, I've always heard good things about the Widcomm drivers having the best feature set and compatibility. I think I would suggest that. There is post in here about installing the widcomm drivers. I have done it and haven't noticed any ill effects.
