I have been syncing my Axim with my laptop successfully since I established the partnership a few months ago. Just today when I went to sync it I got recognized as a Guest and it didn't sync. I could browse the device, but could not figure out how to get it to sync. I have no clue what to do.

I had this problem on my desktop awhile back. When I first bought the Axim I synced it with the desktop only and really didn't use the device until my Visor died. At that time I went to start using it and it would not sync and I could not figure out how to get it working with the desktop. That was when I gave up on the desktop and established a partnership with the laptop, which actually was a good idea because I hardly use the desktop.

What should I do?

I backed up the device as a guest. It was the first time I ever backed it up. Should I just do a hard reset and hope I can establish the partnership on the laptop and reinstall the backup?

I hardly have any actual data on the unit because I decided to start from scratch when I started using the device rather than try to move my data from the Visor backup. I have programs on it but they would be easy enough to reinstall.

Any advice would be appreciated.
