Microsoft Corp. has fixed a problem that made it difficult for users of the most recent Windows Mobile devices to synch with PCs running Vista. Tuesday night, Microsoft launched Windows Mobile Device Center 6.1, an upgraded version of the software that lets Windows Mobile users manage their phones.
The Mobile Device Center was designed for Vista users as a replacement for ActiveSync, the software that let"s PC users synchronize content like calendar items and transfer content like music between their Windows Mobile phones and PCs. However, early users of Windows Mobile 6.0 devices have complained that the Device Center doesn"t synch files at all or in some cases it may lose updates to files.
