I appeal to the palm users among the group.( Palm support was a disaster.-) I have two Palm Zires 71. Identical. I also have two computers with airport and a .mac account. The synchronizing with my old zire goes just fine. Now until recently I (my husband) also had a regular zire ( without the camera) and the synching with that went fine, too. All I had to do was to disable the photo conduit while synching. I had both of them under one user name. Now comes in the new Zire 71.( Trying to be more efficient and eliminate the photo conduit switching). I made the account the same, since my husband and I want the same data on both machines. ( Palm support said this was ok) However, it is not , I gained double and triple addresses, then lost all of them .... etc. a nightmare!. Now the last Missing Manual about Panther by D. Pogue warns that you should only put one palm to one machine. - Now : Should I put the new one on my laptop and give it a new user name? Or should I put it on my iMac with a new ( his) user name? Since all those computers ultimately synchronize I don't know about the differences of doing one or the other. I have been helping myself by simply beaming the new entries from one Zire to the other.But that ultimately is unsatisfactory -Any insight and suggestion would be greatly appreciated. Marta
