Hi, thanks
yes I am on BIS.
The problem isnt' with the email accounts. It's with the calendar. When I reinstalled the OS, the bb set up a different default email account for the calendar and put all the existing entries under that profile. But it's not the one I would have chosen :(

So now when I sync the calendar, outlook doesn't see any calendar entries for the its associated profile on the bb. that's why I think the sync wants to delete all the entries from outlook.

edit: all my calendar entries are on the BB, but under a different email (profile) than the one associated with outlook.

1 am a single person not a business, so I have 1 profile for outlook and the same 1 for bb.
I have the other email addresses in the bb, just to check the email. everything else I do, I want hooked up under the 1 main email address.
