I don’t know if anyone can help, Ericsson has so far not replied to my emails with reference to when their PC software will support both XP and Office XP (2002).

I see the latest XTNDConnect should work, but at a cost and not over IR. Anybody else got a clue. Or maybe arguably the most technically advanced phone available only works with OLD operating systems !

Thanks again

James

I have used XTDconnect software to sync my calendar, phonebook, sms and phone settings on Win XP and Office XP over IR. Initially you will get an error message during transmission of push.txt file from the phone, but this can be corrected by opening wireless link and setting the destination folder. Somebody in this forum discussed this already, I think it's about synchronizing thru wap.

But I have to admit it works better on Win Me.

this is what they said to me:

Dear Eamonn,

Thank you for contacting Sony Ericsson,

With regard to your enquiry, Ericsson handsets (and accessories) are not
currently compatible with windows XP. There is a software patch in the
pipeline, although there is no release date available at the moment.

Should you require any further information please do not hesitate to contact
us.

Kind regards

Mike Rowlands

If you don't get the message avoid the advice from the matte. It is not a problem.
I use also Win XP professional and XTNDconnect pc for ericcson t68 package_1_PFW_version_R2A04 along with office XP professional and I have no problem. The only thing I did is to remove the tray menu for ericsson phones from the registry (the menu which starts with windows)
