SYMPTOMS
When you use a CE device with two computers (computer A and computer B), and you set up partnerships on both computers, the partnership may need to be reestablished when you move the CE device from computer B to computer A.

When you move the CE device from computer A to computer B, you do not need to reestablish the partnership.



CAUSE
This behavior can occur when the CE device is synchronized with Microsoft Works Calendar and the Microsoft Windows Address Book on computer A and the CE device is synchronized with Microsoft Outlook Calendar and Address Book on computer B.

NOTE: No data is lost when you reestablish the partnership, but there may be duplication of some contact data.



RESOLUTION
To resolve this issue, use the same address book and calendar program on each computer that you want to connect your CE device to.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in Microsoft Works Suite 2001.
