Outlook on two computers (2003)

Topic

New Reply

I just got a laptop. I want to keep using Outlook mostly on my desktop, but I would like to be able to see the Calendar and Contacts on my laptop. I do not want to receive email on the laptop because I want all my email collected on the desktop — to do otherwise seems like it would be confusing. There is probably an easy way to do this, but I need help figuring out exactly how.

Actually there isn’t an easy way, for non-corporate users. There are mostly ways around it via third-party solutions, although you can export/import contact and calendar information if you don’t need on-the-fly synchronizing. Have a look here.

Since I sync my desktop with my PDA, would it work to put a second cradle on the laptop and sync that with both? It seems logical that this would work, but computers are not always logical!
