Mobility Site - View Single Post - Need a FULL sync from two computers with 1 pda

This isn't anything to do with Dell or Axims. It is Microsoft ActiveSync.
All PPCs should use ActiveSync the same.
I don't think this part has changed between AS 3.8 and 4.1, but which model do you actually have? Do you mean the X51 when you say Axim v5.0?
If so, then you should be using AS 4.X.
I am using ActiveSync 4.1 (with my X51v).

If you use Exchange for your e-mail, set up the e-mail as Exchange and it should be fine to get from either computer.
Then you would synce other items directly with the computer (or also with Exchange). You can sync with two computers, you just can't sync a specific item with a computer and an Exchange at the same time.
I have my e-mail set up through an Exchange and the Contacts, Appointments, Tasks, and files all sync with two computers (home and office).

You can't sync as a Guest, you can only copy files and (un)install programs. So make sure you have a partnership set up on both computers.
