Sync error code 85010014

[Bytor]

Hi all,
I've googled and read all I can about this error code, but I cant seem to find any help with it in the context of my situation. I have an Axim X51, with ActiveSync 4.2 and Outlook 2003, and all was working fine until a few days ago. There were no changes made to outlook or the Axim, and now for some reason I cant sync. The error code I get is the infamous 0x85010014. I've gone through the variousw fixes I've found for this, Outlook is not offline, I've repaired the outlook install, the firewall and AV software are exactly as they were last week. I'm really at a loss here, does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks!!

Try reinstalling Outlook...

Thanks for the link Mahstah. I had already tried everything listed in that thread (I thought) except an outlook reinstall (it's a very time consuming process, and theres a ton of mail to download afterwards). In the end a simple soft boot of the Axim fixed the problem. I did learn an additional lesson from this though, don't reinstall Activesync to fix this problem. Once it started syncing again, it thought the same laptop was a new one, and everytime it tried to sync with the new one, it would fail with a fatal error.

In the end, I did a hard reset of the Axim and then re-installed activesync again. It's now syncing properly.

Cheers.
