Money is not updating and display the "fyi" alerts for my investments. It
was working but then stopped. I can increase the number of hours, e.g., to
9000, and uncheck the "hide" if the fyi has been selected before and it will
show "fyi" s next to my investments, but it won't show any new ones, for
example, within the last day or so. Can anyone help me with this? thanks.

True, failed to add the disclaimer about the install to different locations.
My bad!

I went back and attempted to install Money 2006 PPC on a different machine
and received the same error. I had a hunch that the reason the Activedsk.dll
could not be registered was either a permissions error or something like
that. I noticed that both machines i attempted to install on were missing the
key HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows
CE\Services\Services\Synchronization\Objects. When I added the key and
attempted to register the Activedsk.dll manually (via CMD and regsvr32) it
succeeded without error, after failing using the same process before adding
the key.

I'm not sure. The issue seems to be moer that WMDC doesn't want to
register Money for PocketPC 2006 "normally". If it USED to work with
Mobile 5, then it MIGHT work again. If you do a system restore point
first, you can make the changes and always revert back- the process is
pertty simple.

This wouldn't work for windows mobile 5.0 devices, would it?

Very good!

1. I didn't want to have a reg file because sometimes people install
things to different locations, and I didn't have a place I wanted the
world to download from.
2. As I mentioned, I think one of the problems is that the
ActiveDsk.dll will NOT register on my Vista Enterprise system- even
when trying "manually", again, as I mentioned. I'm wondering then if
it DID register on your machine?

Thanks again..

Good work on the fix, I think I can shorten it considerably however. I just
upgraded to Vista TODAY and have been frustrated all day trying to get Money
2006 back up and running with Money PPC 2006. Below are the instructions

****SHORT FIX****
IT is good practice to always backup your registry before making any
modifications.
1. Make sure you are logged in as administrator, press WINDOWS-R and type
REGEDIT.
2. Browse to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows CE
Services\Services\Synchronization\
3. Right-Click on Synchronization and click NEW/KEY
4. Name the new key ---> Objects
5. Hit Enter and close registry editor
6. WINDOWS-R again and type CMD
7. Enter EXACTLY: regsvr32 "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Money
2006\MNYCoreFiles\Activedsk.dll"
8. Press Enter
9. After a few seconds a window will pop-up saying "DLLRegisterServer in
...... succeeded.
10. Reboot your computer and sync. You should see the Microsoft Money 2006
Icon under

*** DOWNLOAD BATCH FILE ***
If you are not comfortable/familiar with editing the registry you can
download a *.BAT file from my website to do the work for you. Here are those
instructions:
1. Download BAT file from
http://www.teacheradmin.com/downloads/MONEYPPC2006.bat
2. Save to Desktop (or somewhere convenient)
3. When download completes double-click the file
4. A CMD window will open stating "The operation completed successfully" and
a RegTool Window will open Asking, "Are You Sure?", click YES, then press any
key to close CMD window.
5. Restart computer, sync and enjoy!

Registry Fix for MS Money 2006 and MS Money for PocketPC 2006 in
Windows Vista with Windows Mobile Device Center

For WHATEVER reason, Microsoft dropped support for one of its most
useful, albeit free, utilities I have EVER used, and used EVERY SINGLE
DAY, ALL THROUGHOUT THE DAY, since It has been available: synching
Microsoft Money 2006 with my PocketPC. I have purchased EVERY VERSION
of Microsoft Money since its inception, and have truly used it to my
benefit, and was ECSTATIC when they brought about the ability to synch
that great product with my PocketPC by installing the freely
downloadable "Money for PocketPC" versions. Truly the mark of
mobility, no matter how small, it has been extremely useful. That is,
UNTIL the birth of Microsoft Windows Vista's WDMC- "Windows Mobile
Device Center", the ridiculous, cartoon-like follow-on to ActiveSync
for PocketPC.

Until now, I have seen no fix for not syncing Money with the PocketPC,
including ANY offering from the supposed "hard-working" Microsoft WMDC
developers listed in their forums at
http://windowsvistablog.com/blogs/wi...nter-rtms.aspx.
They have even removed my posts from their blog asking about it AND
condemning them for it. I have also been criticized on other groups
looking for support for this little program, but I discovered the
following simple procedure allowed "Money for PocketPC 2006" to be
picked up by WMDC, and it works, so far, flawlessly.

Please remember that for even more ridiculous reasons I would never
understand, Microsoft Money 2007 DOES NOT support synching with
PocketPC in ANY form, and I can't help with that. So Microsoft gets
NO additional revenue from me for newer Microsoft Money versions or
for upgrading my PocketPC past Windows Mobile 2003 until the newer
products once again support synching with the Money products. So, it
is my hope this procedure restores your ability within Vista to synch
your PocketPC with Microsoft Money 2006, and you can get on with your
daily life.

To those of you AT Microsoft: I think your decision to stop
supporting PocketPC synching with your Money products is ludicrous. A
small decision like this is precedent. This decision, and any other
like it, moves away from your corporation's "Mobile Strategy"
completely. I have NO IDEA how you could in ANY FORM move away from
that mobile concept, but the WMDC and/or Money Project Managers need
to BE FIRED for not just missing, but completely IGNORING the mobility
concept, AND removing a previously existing functionality. In short-
you Microsoft WMDC and/or Money Product Managers have REALLY pissed me
off.

And now; the simple registry fix procedure:

Note:
This procedure contains information about how to modify the registry.
Make sure that you back up your system before you modify it. Make sure
that you know how to restore the registry if a problem occurs. It is
HIGHLY recommended that you create a System Restore Point in BEFORE
proceeding. I make NO guarantees regarding your particular outcome,
and I will NOT be responsible for anything that happens in the course
of you following this procedure. However, it is pretty darn simple.

This procedure works and was tested ONLY with:
A. Microsoft Money 2006
B. Microsoft Money 2006 for PocketPC
C. Windows Mobile Device Center "Release" version.
D. HP iPAQ model 2215 with Windows Mobile 2003.
E. Windows Vista Enterprise Release version.
F. Microsoft Money on my system was installed to- "c:\Program files
\Microsoft Money 2006". Make a note of where on your PC you installed
Money.

1. Reboot your system, logon, and leaving all applications closed,
create a System Restore Point that you can revert to if anything goes
wrong. This is a best practice before you ever make ANY changes to
your system, so do it often because it works.
2. Install (OH GOD!) Windows Mobile Device Center "Release" version.
Do some initial test syncs with your PocketPC with mail, notes etc..
3. Install and configure Microsoft Money 2006, configure with your
financial information and BACK IT UP! Remember- Money 2007 DOES NOT
sync with ANYTHING!
4. Install "Money for PocketPC 2006" to your PocketPC. You will most
likely receive an error dialog stating:
"File(s) failed to self-register: "c:\Program files\Microsoft Money
2006\MNYCoreFiles\ActiveDsk.dll"
5. Ignore that message, and close the dialog.
6. Reboot your system.
7. Logon and open Registry Editor with all applications closed.
8. Navigate to the following registry key:
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows CE Services\Services
\Synchronization\Objects"
9. Right-click on the "Objects" key, and select "New > Key".
10. Name the Key "Microsoft Money Data".
11. Right-click on the empty "Default" string value that is already
there and select "Modify...".
12. Enter "Microsoft Money Data" for the name and click "OK".
13. Right-click on the new "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft
\Windows CE Services\Services\Synchronization\Objects\Microsof t Money
Data" key and select "New > String Value". Name the new String Value
"DefaultIcon". Click "OK".
14. Right-click on the "DefaultIcon" String Value and enter "c:
\Program files\Microsoft Money 2006\MNYCoreFiles
\ActiveDsk.dll,-8002". Do this PRECISELY. It MUST match the actual
path where you installed Microsoft Money on your PC and where the
ActiveDsk.dll file is located.
15. Right-click on the "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows
CE Services\Services\Synchronization\Objects\Microsof t Money Data" key
and select "New > DWORD (32 bit) Value". Name the new DWORD "Dirty".
Click "OK".
16. Leave the DWORD "Dirty" as a hex value of "0".
17. Right-click on the "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows
CE Services\Services\Synchronization\Objects\Microsof t Money Data" key
and select "New > DWORD (32 bit) Value". Name the new DWORD
"Disabled". Click "OK".
18. Leave the DWORD "Dirty" as a hex value of "0".
19. Right-click on the "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows
CE Services\Services\Synchronization\Objects\Microsof t Money Data" key
and select "New > String Value". Name the new String Value "Display
Name". Click "OK".
20. Right-click on the "Display Name" String Value and enter
"Microsoft Money Data".
21. Right-click on the "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows
CE Services\Services\Synchronization\Objects\Microsof t Money Data" key
and select "New > String Value". Name the new String Value "Plural
Name". Click "OK".
22. Right-click on the "Plural Name" String Value and enter "Microsoft
Money Data".
23. Right-click on the "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows
CE Services\Services\Synchronization\Objects\Microsof t Money Data" key
and select "New > String Value". Name the new String Value "Store".
Click "OK".
24. Right-click on the "Store" String Value and enter
"MS.WinCE.Money2000".
25. Close Registry Editor.
26. Reboot your system.
27. Logon, sync your PocketPC. Open WMDC and look at "Mobile Device
Settings", and open "Change Content Sync Settings". You should see
"Microsoft Money Data" listed and selected. Your PocketPC with "Money
for PocketPC 2006" should have received your Microsoft Money 2006
information!

Notes:
1. The dialog "File(s) failed to self-register: "c:\Program files
\Microsoft Money 2006\MNYCoreFiles\ActiveDsk.dll" when installing
"Money for PocketPC 2006" eludes that the .DLL file "ActiveDsk.dll",
did not register properly. I have tried to register the .DLL by using
the command "regsvr32" and the proper path, but I receive the
following message:
"The call to DLLRegisterServer failed with error code 0x80040201"
So it won't register, but the synching works. If anyone has ideas
about this, I'm interested in how to register that .DLL and why in
won't on it's own or by trying to properly register it.
2. Is Microsoft attempting to block this useful program from
installing?
3. Why DID "Money for PocketPC 2006" WORK CORRECTLY in the Beta
versions of WMDC?
4. How HARD would it have been for Microsoft to do this?
5. If you feel this posted procedure is useful, I would ask that if
you propagate it around, that you PLEASE leave my comments intact. I
ask that my comments to Microsoft about the dropping of ANY
functionality within Windows Vista should be passed on, read and
understood.
6. If you REALLY find this useful, why not make a donation to me of .
25 on PayPal? MS took this away, and I brought it back. And I can
REALLY use the money more than they can. They ought to see someone
making a paltry some for fixing this anyway the lazy, thieving ....

Good luck, and Happy Money Management!
