does activesync remote display work with windows mobile 5.0?
MS has had a publicly available PowerToy out for quite a while now which allows you to display and control the screen of a Windows Mobile device on your PC screen while it is connected via Activesync.
Mysteriously, they gave this PowerToy the inscrutable name of…
Activesync Remote Display aka ARD
This thing is the bee’s knees when it comes to running demonstrations of Windows Mobile devices.
Officially, the currently available release only supports Windows Mobile 2003 or older. If you try to launch this with a Windows Mobile 5 device connected, you receive the following error:
The OS or CPU of this device is unknown to this application
However, the robot horde has the answer for making ARD work with Windows Mobile 5, only at the Funboard. Come join us to check it out!

Just wondering where I would find my Pocket PC’s processor to pick the proper file. Once I pick it, how do I find the Windows directory on my mobile device. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

PocketPC Power Tools…
This is a group of utilities for PocketPCs. The Remote Display is especially handy for developing or giving a presentation. One big problem, however. When using the new version of ActiveSync with WindowsMobile 2005 it doesn’t work…….

Hello Chris,
I am using ActiveSync Remote Display Version 2.03 from Windows Mobile Developer Power Toys. I get the correct screen display but after a couple of minutes it breaks my bluetooth connection and displays a dialogue box with CERHost in the header, and Error from recv of screen. Can you assist.
Regards
Ed

on my work machine, the connection was being blocked by CSA. i set the CSA security settings to ‘off’ and it worked just fine.
