This article was previously published under Q269217 SYMPTOMS After you create a partnership with a second computer and
try to select the Inbox on the second computer for synchronization, you may
receive the following error message: Inbox cannot be
selected for synchronization because this mobile device has a partnership with
more than one desktop computer. To synchronize email messages, disconnect the
device, delete a partnership in Microsoft ActiveSync, and reconnect the device.
During the New Partnership wizard, select the option to set up a partnership
with only this computer. CAUSE This issue can occur because you can only synchronize the
Inbox with one partnership. RESOLUTION To work around this issue, use either of the following
methods: Method 1 Disconnect the mobile device, delete a partnership in ActiveSync,
and then reconnect the device. To delete a partnership in ActiveSync, click Delete Partnership on the File menu. Method 2- On the second computer, click Options on the Tools menu.
- Click to clear the Inbox check box.
- On the Sync Options tab, click to clear the Inbox check box, and then synchronize the Inbox.
STATUS This behavior is by design.
