    I was on the 2.1 beta OS for many months and exchange worked w/ no issues. This morning i sent and received emails on my playbook. I then did the update to 2.1.0.1032, and i can longer get my exchange account working. I have power saved the pb and removed the account. Now i can no longer add the account. Is anyone else experiencing this?

    Thanx.

    I did have that problem too. A reboot seems to have fixed it for me so far though.

    I saw in another post that your accounts will need to re-sync, and some reported that taking up to 15 minutes. Maybe that's what yours needs to do?

    I had the same problem and when I went into the Email Preferences for the Exchange account, I had to re-accept the security token for the server. Then the account took a few minutes to re-sync and it is now fully functional.

    that is probably true if the account is active. i tried this on the 2nd playbook, that i just upgraded. the exchange account is there, but no emails, contacts or calendars are synced, even after more than 15 minutes. looks like this update has either broken something or there is some type of compatibility issue between this update and how our corp exchange server is configured.

    I had the same issue even if I accepted the certificate. Mails delay.

    I deleted my exchange account and changed to IMAP. Now it works well.

    Are you having this issue in the native email program or the bridge email? I can't view my exchange email in the bridge email. The native works fine.

    I was on Exchange (365 hosted) while on PB 2.0, then beta 2.1, and now release 2.1. I have not had an issue on any version of PB OS at all.

    i did not have any issues with exchange on 2.0 or beta 2.1 either, but i don't think i ever deleted my account. i tried that today thinking that would resolve my issue, but now i am stuck. can anyone confirm that they were able to add their account while on 2.1?

    Mine seems to be working fine. The update actually fixed the constant need to re-enter my password.

    i struggled with this for a few days. i ended up using the debrick method and fell back to beta 2.1.0.560. i was able to re-add my account successfully. then i updated to 2.1.0.1032. however, my exchange account data did not work right away, even tho it showed active. about an hour later, my data finally starting syncing.

    all that said...my exchange account worked for 2 days. all of the sudden today, i have no email data...only calendar and contacts from my exchange account. account still shows active. i had much better luck with 2.1.0.840. if i could find a bar file i would love to get it.
