Hello....I have two PDA's, an Dell Axum and an Acer N300. They both work
just fine with Windows XP via Active Sync - plug in the USB cable and they
just start working. I have just built a new Windows 7 PC and installed
Mobile Device Center. With either of the PDA attached using the USB
connection when Mobile Device Center is started it indicates "Not
Connected". I have tried several settings on the "Mobile Device Settings"
without success.

What am I missing here? The Acer N300 is running the Mobile 5 OS....RDK

Hello again....I should have mentioned that the USB ports seem to be working
with other devices. ...RDK

Hello...Looks like not much activity in this forum. Well, I'll keep trying.

It would appear that Windows 7 is seeing something when I attach, via USB,
each of my PDA's as I now see the following in the "Printers and Devices"
page:
1) for the Axim X30 (OS Window Mobile 2003 2nd Edition), it shows up as an
"Unidentified device"
2) for the Acer N300 (OS Windoes Mobile 5 (OS 5.1.195 Build 14292.2.2.1)),
it shows up as a "Microsoft Windows Mobile Remote Adapter"
3) and finally for our Mia P550 DigiWalker PDA/GPS (OS Windoes Mobile 5 (OS
5.1.195 Build 14292.2.2.1)), it shows up as "Generic RNDIS"

None of them show connected in the Mobile Device Center.

Any help out there?.....RDK

You almost certainly need Vista/Win7 drivers for your devices. Look around
on the web and/or at the manufactures website.

>> not much activity <<

partialy true, but more relevant is the fact that wmdc is pretty broke
and most people here don't have solutions plus they have given up on it.

If you are condemned to wmdc (vista or above) consider exchange sync
options... google has a free one... see
http://bevhoward.com/GoogleSync.htm for info on that.
