• Buddy Sent BOOTME 255. 255. 255. 255

  Hi, I’m using Device Emulator with PB for Windows Mobile 5.0. I have created the PPC Phone image and now I’m trying to upload it to the emulator. For that I have installed the loopback adapter with the 169.254.128.128 IP and DNS address. Furthermore I set the Connectivity Options (Target -> Connectivity Options) for Device Emulator over Ethernet with the CS8900 network adapter (MS Loopback).

• John Turnbull Architecture question

  I have a mobile field service app written to run on WM5 CF2 and would like some advice on architecture. For this type of app, the runtime performance is crucial in relation to startup time. I have a Data Access Layer (DAL) with various classes that provide the abstraction between business objects and the persistence layer e.g. SqlCe. One class per business object. On top of that is the Business Logic Layer (BLL) that uses the DAL layer. This is impemented by normal classes. And on top of that the Presentation layer implemented as a number of Forms that use the BLL layer methods only. I have also created a 'MyApplication' class with the singleton pattern. When the class instantiates, it creates all the BLL classes, the database connection ...Show All

• Caioshin Active Sync 4.2 won't . . . Support Code: 86000108

  I noticed that my Dell Axim PDA X51v ((fairly new) stopped receiving my Calendar & Contact updates last week. I was using Active Sync 4.0 at that time. I upgraded to Active Sync 4.2 and now get the error message about "Support Code: 86000108". Outlook 2003 will not synchronize my Calendar & Contacts lists unless I have Outlook open and active. Then Active Synch doesn't automatically synchronize changes that occur within Outlook such as meeting cancellations or additions (same with Contacts), unless I perform a manual synchronization. I'm not sure if the problem is within Active Synch or within Outlook 2003. I have another desktop that is running Outlook 2003 and an older Dell Axim X3 with Active Sync 3.7 that is workin ...Show All

• Bill Reiss Connecting multiple PDA to a desktop pc

  Hi Can i connect multiple PDA's to my desktop PC , so that the PDA app can cosume the webservice, Currently i am connecting single PDA to the PC using the bluetooth USB adapter Regards Gauls if the bluetooth stack belkin uses allows it to serve as a bluetooth modem, and the PDAs allow null modem connectivity, then yes, I believe you're able to do what you're asking. you'll also need the network card on the PC to be set up for internet connection sharing. You can do that using network adapters. If you using AS, only one device can be connected to one PC. not sure if this is applicable to your device, but try looking here: http://www.geekzone.co.nz/forums.asp Fo ...Show All
