I'm quite new to Plaxo. i use Outlook express and have outlook too which is not "supported" by my ISP. I wish to have two distinct address books on Plaxo, one for my wife and one for me. I set up mine via the wizzard and all is ok but I can't seem to find a a way to set up another one . Can anyone help?:rolleyes:

It depends on how you have your computer configured. Are you using User Profiles? In other words, when your computer boots up, does it first ask you to select a profile in order to log in.

If yes, then Plaxo will be configured separately for each User Profile. When you log in to your Profile, Plaxo will be configured for you and to your Plaxo account, and when your wife logs into her User Profile, Plaxo will be configured for her and to her Plaxo account.

- Simply install Plaxo once on the PC while logged into one of the User Profiles.
- Walk through the registration wizard to setup the 1st Plaxo account.
- When completed, log back into your computer using the other User Profile
- Start up OL or OE, depending one what you use. The registration wizard will automatically start for the second profile.
- Walk through the registration wizard to setup the 2nd Plaxo account.

Alternatively, if you are NOT using User Profiles, you'll need to configure OE to setup separate Identities. Similar to separate user profiles, the registration wizard will launch the 1st time for each new Identity.
