I recently bought a Psion Netbook Pro with Windows CE 4.2 on a whim, and need to sync to my Mac in order to install some wifi and bluetooth card drivers.
ActiveSync won't work when I tried to use it through a Windows 2000 VM, so this is my next option, but I can't find a download anywhere 🙁

Cheers 🙂

I will help you look. Have u checked Mac Garden?
 
Does ActiveSync work with CE.Net 4.2 devices in the first place?
Yes it does, although I tried v3.8 and might try v4.5 next, which is unofficially working 😉
I've no idea if this version is compatible @Hughmac as it's been a long time since I used it but it's worth a try.
Thanks very much, downloaded and will have a go on the PowerBook later 🙂

Cheers 🙂

Apologies to everyone, and thanks for all your help, but I've discovered if I execute the setup file in the Virtual PC Windows VM, the .cab file I need is extracted, and I can then copy it to the handheld PC via SD card 🙂

I think I can mark this as solved now 😉

Cheers 🙂
