My fix for any upgrade problems (eg. TB2)
Posted: Thu Apr 19, 2007 11:17 pm
I have encountered problems before with upgrades on Birdiesync (one about a month ago updating to latest version and today upgrading to support TB2).
After much frustration I thought I would share some times on how exactly I have done these upgrades to get them to work right.
The most common problem I face is it trying to uninstall and re-install birdiesync on both the PC and phone. Below is the steps I urge you to try first to upgrade successfully:
1. Connect phone, wait for activesync to finish and goto Tools -> Add/Remove Programs and remove 'Callicia Birdiesync'.
2. D/C your phone and soft reset (using phone on/off button) your phone.
3. Goto Start -> All Programs -> Birdiesync and select Uninstall. Leave to keep your key and preferences ticked to save them.
3. Now also reset your PC to start it out fresh.
4. Now install Birdiesync and carry on as usual, you seem to have a much better chance doing it as a 'fresh' install.
Hope this helps some people out there!
