from your personal computer, click Start > Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs >
Microsoft ActiveSync. Then click the Remove button and click Yes.

After trying the above solutions without any success in solving the connection problem, perform a
factory reset on your HP iPAQ. (A factory reset clears all user-installed settings, programs, and
data and restores your HP iPAQ to factory settings.)
Reinstall applications on your HP iPAQ once the factory reset is complete by using ActiveSync on your
personal computer. Once your HP iPAQ is synchronized properly, go to ActiveSync on your personal
computer and select Tools > Add/Remove Programs and select any programs to reinstall.

Copying (or Transferring) Files

You can copy (transfer) files to and from the computer using Explore in ActiveSync and Windows
Explorer.
To copy (transfer) files:
1. Connect your HP iPAQ to the personal computer via the mini-USB synchronization cable.
2. On the personal computer, select Start > Programs > Microsoft ActiveSync.
3. Select Explore.
4. Double-click Windows Mobile-Based Device.
5. Right-click the Start menu, and select Explore.
6. Locate the file to be moved.
NOTE
7. Drag and drop the files between your HP iPAQ and the personal computer. ActiveSync converts
the files so that they can be used by the Office Mobile programs, if necessary.
Move the files directly into My Documents on your HP iPAQ (or into a folder inside My Documents), so
the programs on the device can locate them.
You cannot copy preinstalled files or system files.
