When I sync my new Cingular 8125 Pocket PC Phone with Outlook 2003 (using
ActiveSync 4.2), most of my Contacts aren't synced into the phone.
Everything else syncs fine. I've looked everywhere for an answer but haven't
found one. Since my Contacts are my phone book, this makes the phone hard to
use. Is there something wrong with the way my Contacts are set up? Has
anyone figured out a way around this problem?

This is an ActivSync issue, not an Outlook issue. You'll need to try an
activsync group.

Thank you-- I thought it might be how I have contacts set up somehow. I'll
try ActiveSync.

Make sure that your setting on AS are set to sync contacts. Also, are you
running any other software that may interfear, such as an Outlook plugin??
