I have two PCs (one in Country and one in City) and have 2 Windows Mobile 5
SmartPhones (Orange SPV600 for me and wife). There seems to be a problem when
trying to keep them in sync with the two machines (both using ActiveSync 4.1).

What happens is that the AS Setup Wizard keeps coming up when going to one
PC from the other, stating that the SmartPhone can only be connected to 2
different computers. It lists both machines and asks that one be deleted
before any sync can take place.

This is driving me mad and it is really difficult to think or a suitable
search on Google or this forum for a result.

Any help or pointers would be fab!

Hi,
I think I know what is happening. Since you have 2 Smartphones, you need to
make sure that they are named something different than each other. Also, the
name must not be already used on the PC. So the key is to make sure that
the names are different than the names on the PCs for existing partnerships.

Of course you could delete all the existing partnerships and then make sure
you sync the phones in the same order on both PCs the first time. Then they
should sync with the second PC without any conflicts.
