I'm currently having an issue displaying some of my Operational Layers in my Mobile Project when utilizing the Field Crew Task.
My approach so far has been to publish both of my mxds (one of my project data, the other of my Field Crew) to my server. Once there, I go into my Mobile Project Center and add in my Field Crew Layer and then my Project data. Both are added under Operational Layers. Once I have set all of the parameters to my project, I save my project to my Server. This works fine and I have access to this project from my Mobile Device. I use the Download Project to download the project from my server, and type in all the necessary credentials. The projects loads and even brings up my Sign In Screen. However, once signed in, only my Field Crew Members appear on screen, none of my other Operational Data Layers get displayed. However, I am able to create these "non-displayed features", as well as have them appear in the Layer Display option.
I have tried pretty much everything to this point. If anyone has any suggestions, I'd really appreciate it.

Hi sblitzstein,

After downloading your mobile project you will have to go to download the data to your device. Try the following steps.

1.) Click Tasks - Manage Edits - Get Data.
2.) Click Select All - Next.
3.) Set the download to FullExtent and click Get Data.
4.) Make sure the server returns "Get data succeeded".
5.) You should now see all of your layers displaying on the mobile client.

Hi sblitzstein,

This is a known workflow issue at 10.0.
The workflow recommended by Patrick is what we have been using here in Australia. Interestingly if there is no field crew ArcGIS mobile will let you know there is no data.
I do know at 10.1 this has been identified as limitation and Esri are looking to rectify this

cheers
Gordon

Thank you so much!!!!!!

We have been trying to figure out for the past two days why we have been unable to display or load our data once we have the Field Crew Task added to our project.

Again thank you so much!!!!!!
