Anyone know if I can sync two different PDAs (both ASUS A716s) to same PC? The idea would be to have two sync sets, one with my stuff, the other with the stuff my wife uses. Thanks, Tom |

Under Windows 2000 or Windows XP, it's easy enough, as long as you set up different logins on your computer. You can do the same thing with Windows 9x, but you have to turn on user profiles. Most sync software makes sure that it syncs with the name it started to sync with. Palm OS (not what you're using) syncs to different named folders, but Windows CE may sync differently. It may be possible to set up different Outlook profiles on one Windows user and make the sync software work with each outlook profile, but you'll be happier if you sync with your own logon. |

If both PDA's use Windows CE and ActiveSync, you can sync both without using different login information. You just need to make sure you set up a different partnership name for each device when you plug it in and ActiveSync detects it. |

Hello, Silver Shadow, Thank you. I need a bit of clarification. I'm not sure what 'partnership name' means. Is that something I select when I install Active Sync on my PC? Do I need different device names, like Toms and Bettys? Will I have two Active Sync Folders on my desktop - one for my stuff and the other for Bettys? Thanks a lot. Tom |
