My husband and I both have 8125s and we sync them to Outlook on our home computer. I installed the ActiveSync software under my profile, and sync both devices under my profile, since the devices have separate names. The problem is that when we sync, each of our appointments, etc, end up on each others' devices. I tried to install the ActiveSync software under his profile to solve the problem, but it tells me that the software is already installed. Does anyone know how I can get the computer to see the devices separately and to sync each others' items to their own profile?
"The device name is already in use. You must enter a different name for your mobile device" - This happened to me on a Windows XP machine where I had two users with two different Pocket PCs. When I connected a Pocket PC, ActiveSync was picking up the wrong Pocket PC. If I switched partnerships, I was asked to create a new one, then refused permission as the name existed. The solution seemed to be as follows: 1) Connect, but switch off the Pocket PC 2) Go to 'File | Mobile device'. 3) Delete the device partnership - you'll lose your ActiveSync settings, but not your data or backups. 4) Switch on the Pocket PC and follow the instructions to create a new partnership.
