Windows Mobile 5.0 not connecting to files on servers hosted on Windows 2008

We recently upgraded our servers from Windows server 2003 to windows server 2008 and 2012. While on WM server 2003, we were using a PDA system that operates on Windows Mobile 5.0, since our upgrade, we are not able to connect
to any files on the servers using Windows 2008 or 2012.
Through a ping test of the server's IP address, it shows that the mobile device is connected to the server but it cannot communicate/access the folder/files in that server.
Is this a firewall or security issue ?
Is this is a compatiblily issue of Windows Mobile 5.0 and Windows server 2008/ 2012?
What are the possible solutions for this issue?
Thanks,

Hi,
Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
Sorry to inform you but as per my research, Windows Mobile 5.0 doesn’t allow the connection to server 2008\2012.
Thanks for your understanding and support!
Regards.

I am trying to move a pdf file onto my iPad2, and it says that the device is not connected or has stopped working. But Windows 7 recognizes the device and I can see my pictures. Same thing happens when I try to put music onto the iPad.

I am trying to move a pdf file onto my iPad2, and it says that the device is not connected or has stopped working. But Windows 7 recognizes the device and I can see my pictures. Same thing happens when I try to put music onto the iPad.

When in iTunes on the computer,my our ipadmshould show under devices.
Click on your ipadmunder devices then go to music at top center of the iTunes window, check what you want to sync for music. You need to set it to a folder if I remember which would have your music in it you want synced.
Same with PDF files.....there should be an option for data or even PDF files at the top center area of iTunes when the iPad is clicked under devices.
If your iPad does not show or you cannot click on it under devices which is in the leftane of iTunes, the iPad is not being seen by the computer.
Try unplugging the USB cord from the laptop then give it a few and see if the computer picks it up.

1st problem see http://kb.mozillazine.org/Firewalls
2nd problem, to close Firefox properly use File > Exit
:not with the [x] in upper right corner which close window
:see http://kb.mozillazine.org/Firefox_hangs#Hang_at_exit
:if restarting use "Restartless Restart" extension as mentioned there.

My windows 7 machine does not recognise .swf files. I have down loaded the flash player but I think.

My windows 7 machine does not recognise .swf files. I have down loaded the flash player but I think but it is linked as a plug in with chrome and IE. How can I get my windows to recognise the .swf files to play them.

The downloaded file is the projector, not an installer; you need to make the file association manually:
move the downloaded exe file to a location you can remember, e.g. C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash
right-click on a swf file and select Open with > Choose default program
navigate to the folder you saved the player and select flashplayer_13_sa.exe

Hi Abdallah,
According to your description, could you please post the summary and detail logs for further analysis? By default, the logs can be found in: C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\100\Setup Bootstrap\Log.
Usually, the error occurs when the Windows Installer Service is not running or the Windows Installer registry settings are corrupted. I recommend you reset the Windows Installer Service settings in the registry and restart the Windows Installer Service,
then reinstall SQL Server 2008 R2. For more details, please review this similar
article.
Thanks,

Sept 4, 2014 My iPhone is not connecting to the Hotmail servers. My other email accounts work on it but all the hotmail one comes up with is "The connection to the server failed". Are other people experiencing the same issues?

If your Hotmail account worked previously and it suddenly stopped and gave you that message, then it is likely a problem at th Hotmail end. Did you check the Hotmail website or contact Hotmail directly to see if they are experiencing problems?

Pages does not open .docx files that were created by Windows Mobile 6

Pages can read .docx files created from Windows (Vista Office). But for .docx files created in Windows Mobile devices, Pages cannot open them. It show up as blank. If I use microsoft office for Mac to open, it can open them. If I save the opened file from office Mac, I can open it Page.
I hope that there is a fix to this problem.

There is a converter that might help you.

Flash on windows mobile 6 and camera connection

Hy, student from netherlands and we need to use flash lite

I found kuneri and with nokias it would work fine, but as a
student I can't buy again new phone?
Now I have pocket pc with windows mobile 6 pro, but when I
install flash player 2.1 in the browser we get popup do download
swf file and not playing in the browser? So it's not working?

After that can I make connection with camera on phone with
flash player mobile?
I was working with rmtp with normal browser, but how it works
with mobile browser?
Any sugestion please
Kind regards,

"Does anybody have an idea how we can get Flash to get more memory from the system, please?"
We've encountered this problem a year ago.
There are 2 solutions :
- compress MP3/FLV at the maximum (in file size) to reduce memory consumption and set a timer of 60 seconds before loading another MP3/FLV to let the garbage collector of Flash Player to free memory.
- use an external MP3 Player (Windows Media or TCPMP), if you configure the player to launch automatically when double clicking on .mp3 files, you just have to call fscommand("launch", "test.mp3");
The problem is then to hide the MP3 Player.
Using Janus-Flash, you can "Set Top Most" Flash Player so the MP3 Player is hidden.
Using this method we managed to play 15 MB MP3, and switch almost instantly to another big MP3 file.
Check Janus-Flash Forum to find the solution. The exe to set top most is called "Janus Kiosk.exe".
Best luck.

IPhone 4 not connecting to any computer, Mac OS or Windows, or iTunes after ios 7 update

Hello Apple community,
I desparately need help connecting my iphone 4 to iTunes so I can restore my previous iPhone4 backup that is on my windows laptop computer. It used to connect perfectly to my windows 7 laptop with iTunes, but after ios 7 (and subsequently 7.1) update, it no longer connects to windows, iTunes (yes latest version), nor shows in Windows device manager. (yes, I tried repairing, updating, and re-installing apple usb driver + iTunes. Win7 is totally up to date too)
How did it all start?
1. The phone completely went dead after trying the ios 7 update (with full battery charge). Previously, the iphone 4 worked PERFECT on ios 6. So, I went to apple store, and they connected it to their laptop at the Genius Bar and performed a fresh ios 7 install. So, I had a fresh working ios 7 phone WITHOUT all my previous data.
2. No problem? I'll just go home and use the iTunes backup file on my win7 computer to restore all my files. However, this iphone4 won't connect to my laptop or any other computer at all.
Current Status:
A) iPhone4 battery only charges if phone is completely off and plugged into the Wall-electrical-outlet charger.
B) no usb data connection regardless of computer type (Mac or Windows PC) and different usb cables were tried.
C) When plugged into my iHome alarm-clock and music player, the iPhone4 can be controlled by the iHome's menu buttons (play, rewind, fast forward, time sync, plays the iphone4 music through the iHome speaker, etc). Also, the iPhone4 does not charge as before because the phone is still powered ON.
D) An iPhone repair technician confirmed the phone battery and female-charge-docking connector work fine because he swapped those parts for new ones and phone still had the same problem.
The only thing that changed on this iPhone 4 was the ios 7 update. How can so much go wrong by just updating to ios 7 and do any of you apple gurus have any idea how else to fix this problem?

I am having the same problem. I can not seem to find any fix. I have tried everything my computer said to do. I am out of options right now. any help?

Samsung Omnia Mobile Phone does not connect to my MacBook Pro

Hi guys. I am after some advice please.
My Mac Book Pro is currently not allowing me to browse my Samsung Omnia phone by bluetooth.
It has worked previously however, it is not now. It recognises that the phone is there but when it comes to connecting it says "The connection failed or closed" - Would you like to attempt to reconnect or close this window?
I do not know how to get this to work and I cannot use the USB transfer wire as it is not compatible with Apple Macs.
I have some photos and files I would like to transfer over however, I cannot do so.
Any help much appreciated please.

Hi Elizaanne,
I understand you are having issues with HP Officejet 6700 Premium not connect to your Macbook Pro.
Sometimes the router needs to be cycled. I would unplug the router, turn off printer, turn off computer.
Turn back on router wait 5 min and turn on printer and computer.
Check on the printer if Wifi is SOLID.
From System Preferences, open Print and Fax or Print and Scan pane. If you see the printer listed
Click remove printer- button. It will ask for confirmation of delete printer.
Click the Add or + button, select the printer Bonjour Multifunction not Fax. Adding that should update the drivers.
If the Printer Wifi is not solid you will have to set it up again.
Press the Power button to turn on the printer.
Touch the Right Arrow to display the second navigation screen.
Touch Setup , and then touch Network .
Touch Wireless Setup Wizard
Then add it to you Mac 10.7.
I hope this helps.
Please feel free to contact me if you require further assistance.
Thanks

Hi,
Which method do you use to transfer items to Windows 8, via network or via USB drive?
