Office Mobile 6.1 Requires Windows Mobile 5 Build 14847
Folks who are paying attention might remember Build 14847 as the first one to include the famously famous MSFP AKA Messaging Security & Feature Pack in Windows Mobile 5…
And colloquially known as…
A Pocket Full of Direct Push
Long story short, Office Mobile 6.1 won’t load on any version of Windows Mobile earlier than Windows Mobile 5 Build 1487, a requirement which isn’t noted on the download page for Office Mobile 6.1 at all.
So if you get the following message…
Error message: Office Mobile 6.1 is not compatible with Windows Mobile 5.0 powered devices running builds earlier than 14847.
To check the build number of your Windows Mobile powered device, go to Settings, click System, and then click About.
Go check and see if there isn’t a newer ROM update available for your device from the OEM or mobile operator.
If there isn’t…
Well…
You are pretty much SOL for Office Mobile 6.1, I guess.
