Motorola Q - USB sync

When I try to attach the Motorola Q to Parallels VM (XP) it immediately disconnects. Can anyone else confirm this behavior or assist with a fix?

TIA

 

Check the WM5 Sticky.

 

I appreciate the reply and am now aware of the workaround created by some helpful folks.

I guess this still leaves me wondering where Parallels is on the subject. Seems like I shouldn't need to mod my PDA to get it to work with Parallels.

This is certainly a bug and I, for one, would like to see a fix from Parallels that does not require a OS change on either the WM5 device or the Guest.

Parallels? Is the WM5 hack a "sticky" on this forum because this is the only way the issue will be addressed, or is a fix forthcoming?

Thanks.

 

I believe they said a fix is forthcoming. Its just taking awhile and they are not letting us know its status.

 

Thanks.... I guess I missed that thread.

 

Well I hope the fix was not in the 1862 build.... because this beta does not fix the Q...

 

With the beta, I was able to get my Treo to work - however I had to first turn off the usbswitch serial back to the original NDIS based synching. I just went into \WINDOWS and ran usbswitch.exe and voila - synching worked perfectly

 

I guess I'll have to break down and load the usbswitch.
