I have run into this many times in the past. I usually backup my data and
hard-reset and use the time to clean up my PPC. I don't suggest YOU do this
though. I just have time on my hands now and then. Try renaming you PPC and
setting up a new partnership. For more troubleshooting ideas check

hope this helps
