2 Moguls on one computer?

My roomate just got a mogul after I got mine. When we synced his after we created a new folder it added all my contacts. Is there a way to get around this?

Setup a second user on the computer.

Tell it not to sync contacts. You can choose what you want it to sync.

yeah, uncheck the boxes that you dont want it to sync with.

My girlfriend and I both use the same laptop and we both had the same phone, so I set up another user. every time she synced it was under her side and vice versa. never had a probelm. I think thats pretty much the best way because then you guys can both sync whatever you desire.

Best solution is to get an exchange account and sync everything (mail, contacts, calendar, tasks) OTA. You can get a free one from mail2web.

Then set the following reg key on your desktop which will prevent any desktop syncing but still allow you to copy files to/from your phone and do other things. It makes your computer treat every WM device hooked up as a guest.

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows CE Services]
"GuestOnly"=dword:00000001
