Mobility Site - View Single Post - Activesync keeps asking me to 'rename' my device

tstall2 · 06-10-06, 04:04 PM

I sync with two computers and I have a wierdness/inconvenience that keeps happening to me. When I plug in my x51v, Activesync tells me that another device already has the name that my device is trying to sync with (although I have only synced with one handheld). I can either rename the device or sync as a guest. I simply choose an alternate name and everything is OK... Both computers I sync with have given me this problem and it happens about 25% of the time.
Has anyone else seen this problem and know how to resolve it? It is just an annoyance, but I would like to get past it...
