syncing 2 pocket pcs to one computer

I have finally installed ActiveSync that came with my new Dell50v. I
plugged it into the computer when asked to and it synced properly. Then I
plugged my Toshiba 335 into another USB port and it walked me through
setting up a partnership and synced it. Now ActiveSync is only syncing my
Toshiba and not my Dell although both are plugged in (into 2 separate
ports). How do I get ActiveSync to recognize and sync both pocket pcs?

You cannot - ActiveSync can only synchronize one device at a time.

Rob,

Do you mean that Active Sync can only have one partnership? Or do you mean
it can have more than one partnership, but can only handle having one PPC
connected at any given time? If the later, is there a limit to the number of
partnerships?

Thanks,

Bill

Microsoft ActiveSync can have more than one partnership, but can only handle
having one PPC connected at any given time.

I haven't heard about the limit for number of partnerships.
