I check only one category and click "Update Posts". It loads for a while, but all posts still belong to both the categories.

Strange, the posting dialog asked me for which blog I needed help with, thought it would do something with that. :p

Regarding your answer, doing such bulk edit, the "uncategorized" category isnt checked when viewing the posts.

(Quick) Edit your post => Uncheck Uncategorized => Check the right category

I created a category for them and added the posts there. However, they still belong to "uncategorized". How do I make a post belong to only one category, and not uncategorized?

I tried bulk editing and only checked the correct category. I also tried only checking uncategorised and then doing another edit checking only the correct category. Neither seems to have worked. As far as I know, WordPress demands (internally) each post to have at least one category. But I also want to use that category, for post that are just that, some quick thought I dont (yet) have a specific category for.
