i have a simple question. how do you setup a new parternish with an existing name so you can do a restore.

I recently had to do a full restore after my XDA (1) did its own hard reset! It was a real pain in the ass despite having a full backup and incremental backup etc. I had the same problem with the Partnership name and ultimately had to allow it to set up two partnerships and it restored to the second one.

BTW the restore function seems to restore using the latest backup it did, which is usually an incremental one and doesn't have all of the information the machine needs. I had to rename the incremental backup file and change the backup function to pretend it was going to do a full backup and pointed it to my old full backup file - then told it to do a restore. Then I went through the same BS to put the incremental details back on. If you are syncing with Outlook be careull - the synchronisation function deleted everything on my desktop back to the date of the backup instead of adding the new details to the XDA!!!!

Hope this helps.

thanks; this was theproblem exactly. i am srprised that there's not an easier way.

I read your explanation about the restoring problem but I am not quite sure that I fully understand the way you did it. Could you please try to explain it in a more easy way to the "non fully english understanding" people? THX[/list]

U should change the synchronisation settings in active sync running on your PC. U should configure combine. Other options are pda overwrite --> the PC and PC --> overwrite the PDA. Just look a little in the settings and change the setting.

I think u use have set that ur pda overwrites the pc agenda. GL

you connect as guest and restore
simple as that
