Palm Tungsten batteries

Two Questions
1/ I just got a palm tungsten on eBay. The battery charges OK but tends to loss power very quickly. Palm was on for about half an hour while I was checking things out and about 1/3 power was already gone. It had been on charge for over 7 hours and looked fully charged. Should I buy a new battery and can I install it myself. I saw something in the manual stating that there are no serviceable parts and one should not remove the back.
2/ I have noticed that every time I do a hot sync I am prompted to reset the palm (I think that was the term used) I then get a screen where the calendar has been reset to the first of the year 2003, the time is 12 and I have to reset them. Is there anyway to avoid this?

1) The battery is not very easily removed, e.g. glued or taped to the main board or panel. You can replace it yourself, though some are more easily removed than others, and you probably will need a special screwdriver.
2) After every reset, a couple handhelds I have owned reset their date and time, though it is very annoying, it will go away eventually.

Sharing Internet with Palm Tungsten T3 via Bluetooth - possible still?

Ok...I know I'm using legacy technology with the Palm Tungsten T3 and it seems that all discussions online that I've found are out of date. Even Missing Sync's Internet Sharing product is discontinued. But I'm running 10.5 on my MacBook Pro...so I would have thought that sharing via Bluetooth PAN would work.
But could be that Bluetooth PAN is something too new for the T3 to handle. So then am I back to using Terminal to run a separate PPP server for the T3? If that's the case...I guess I can try these instructions from 2003 and 2002:

Hello, and Welcome to the HP Support Community!

Syncing Palm Tungsten E2 With MacBook Air

Hello, I have owned a Palm Tungsten E2 since 2005. I was able to install the Desktop software on windows XP and sync the device with my Windows XP laptop since 2005. I recently purchased a MAcBook Air and installed the Desktop Software from the CD I purchased in 2005 (it has a Mac version). It appeared to install OK but when I pressed the sync button on the device nothing happened. I would appreciate any help on this issue. Many thanks,

Hi and welcome to the HP Support Community.
Unfortunately, I don't think you have any current options to sync with your new Mac. Palm Desktop 4.2 ceased Mac compatibility with 10.6 Snow Leopard. The only alternative used to be a third party app called Missing Sync. However, it was incompatible with Mac X 10.9 going forward. Also, it has been discontined as of 12/31/14.

What is best solution for using a Palm Tungsten 2 on a Windows 7 computer?

Driven by the end of XP, I purchased an HP Z230 Workstation running Windows 7 Professional.   I'd like to get my Palm Tungsten 2 working, and I've heard several options here on doing that.
OPTIONS
A. Use Palm Desktop 6.2 with Bluetooth for hotsync. (I've done this already with a Win7 laptop, but I use the Note Pad utility a lot with some macros, which unfortunately is not supported on Desktop v6.2).
B. Use Palm Desktop 4.1.4 in a virtual Windows XP environment running under Win 7. I know I can do that, and that is probably my fallback. However, Microsoft suggests that you disconnect from the Internet any time you use the Virtual XP, because it may be susceptible to hacking since they don't support XP anymore.   So that will be an added nuisance that I will probably forget to do.
C. Use the Aceeca USB driver to make Desktop 4.1.4 work.  I tried following the instructions here to do that, but when Hotsync fails, it never shows up as a yellow triangle in the device manager list, even after I followed the trick to make hidden devices visible. So I have not been able to even try the Aceeca driver with Palm 4.1.4 yet.
D. Install the Aceeca Desktop 4.1 and update to their driver. I could try this (uninstall Palm 4.1.4 and install Aceeca 4.1) but it looks like it depends on the same process to update the driver as my option C just above. So I'm thinking I may run into the same roadblock as C.
Questions:
Does anyone have any other ideas of how to get the Aceeca driver hooked up to Palm Desktop 4.1.4 that I could try?
Does anyone know if Aceeca Desktop supports the Note Pad facility if I try option D?
Thanks in advance for your help.

This question was solved.

Palm Blue,
Thanks for weighing in!
Here is what I know so far.   I use the Palm Desktop 4.1 on my Win XP computer, and have no problems syncing my Tungsten T2 with USB Hotsyncs.
I've also successfully hotsynced the T2 to a Win7 Pro laptop computer using Palm Desktop 6.2. and Bluetooth.
My goal, which sounds like you have already accomplished, is to install Palm Desktop 4.1.4 on my new Win7 Pro desktop, so that I can sync with the T2 and get the Note Pad functionality also.   This is like my "OPTION C."
Did you have to use the Aceeca driver to make this work on your computer, or were you able to do it with the Palm driver? One other person reported elsewhere having gotten 4.1.4 working on a 64 bit Win7 installation, and he made no mention of the Aceeca driver.  I have not been able to contact him.
In response to your question about what I see when I try to sync:
Palm 4.1.4 is installed on the Win7 Pro desktop, and the hotsync icon is present.
When I try to sync, I hear the characteristic tone indicating that a USB device is recognized. But I also get a message that pops up near it with the yellow triangle and the following text:
"USB DEVICE NOT RECOGNIZED"
"One of the USB devices attached to this computer has
malfunctioned, and Windows does not recognize it.
For assistance in solving this problem, click this
message."
If I click the message, I get popup window that says,
One of the devices attached to this comptuer has malfunctioned and Windows does not recognize it."
It then shows a list of the USB devices inside of one of the USB Root Hubs, and one of them has a different icon and a question mark in that icon (not a yellow triangle). And its description is in bold and it says "Unknown USB Device."
I also looked at the Device Manager during a hotsync to see if it shows a Palm device or an Other category.   Using my XP computer first with the Tungsten T2, and which also syncs okay, it is true that during the Hotsync, the Device Manager adds a device "Palm OS Handheld Device / Palm Handheld," that goes away as soon as the hotsync is complete.
Using the same Palm Tungsten 2, when I attempt the Hotsync in the Win7Pro computer, "Palm OS Handheld Device/Palm Handheld"  does NOT appear in the Device Manager (nor anything else like it).
So for some reason, my computer does not have seem to have enough of the Palm Desktop/Hotsync installation complete that I can get to the point of either it working, or where I could try to install the Aceeca driver.
I keep trying things to get it to work, but so far now luck. Looking for more ideas to try.

Can't find palm tungsten isync hotsync conduit in leopard

Attempting to sync my Palm Tungsten E2 with iCal & Address Book by USB but iSync can't set up when I attempt to Enable Palm Syncing. iSync Hotsync Conduit does not install and is not found on searching with Spotlight. Palm Hotsync works fine. Where is my software not configured properly?

Problem solved. I was logged into a User Account that did not have permissions to move the conduits to a new folder 'iSync Disabled Conduits'. Logging into the System Manager Account enabled this process to proceed and reverting back to the sub-account the configuring for Enable Palm Syncing process now completed.

The Missing Sync for Palm OS v6.0.4 won't run with my Palm Tungsten E2

Having problems with Palm iSync on My iBook with 10.4.11 I bought The Missing Sync.
I removed Palm Desktop and installed Missing Sync. However sync won't start when I press the HotSync button.
Is my Palm Tungsten E2, running Palm OS Garnet v. 3.1.1 too old?
If so, can I upgrade it?

No, there is nothing published - that I am aware of - other than the Missing Sync User Guide that you received [as portable document format file] when you purchased the Missing Sync for Palm OS.
There is some developer documentation available from Apple, but it has little direct bearing on anything like the issue you are seeing. Your crash logs should have provided an indication of what was going on, and - using them - Mark/Space should have been able to identify your issue pretty easily.
It's very difficult to troubleshoot unusual issues remotely. Common problems - which can be easily identified - are readily corrected just by following the instructions posted by some knowledgable person here in the Apple Discussions forums. Given the unique circumstances you report of total failure following the installation of the Missing Sync, it's very likely that the actual culprit in your configuration is NOT the Palm desktop, iSync, .Mac Sync, the Missing Sync for Palm OS or your Treo 600. Something unique about your configuration is likely responsible. Trying to eliminate the variables, though, is not an easy task.
One relatively easy way to troubleshoot such issues is to create a new user, reinstall the Missing Sync and attempt to synchronize using that new user account. If that process is successful, you'll immediately know that something involving your existing user account is responsible for the issue.

Importing contacts, calendar, etc from Palm Tungsten E2 to iphone 6

Does anyone know how to import the contacts, calendar, to do list, etc from a Palm Tungsten E2 into an iPhone 6?

Thank you for the information. I tried to sync through outlook as the instructions said but had problems with installing outlook on the XP machine, had problems with the Palm software on my Windows 7 machine, etc. Spent lots of hours trying to get this to work but I think most of the problems were due to issues with my 2 different computers. Finally found out about CompanionLink. Installed that software on my XP machine since that is where my Palm Desktop resides. Had to add the app DejaOffice on my I-Phone. Synced the 2 together and everything was transferred onto my phone in the Dejaoffice app. All calendar and contact information was also synced into the I-phone calendar and contact list. The only thing I will have to copy and paste are the reminders and other notes into the phone reminders and notes and then I should be able to delete the DejaOffice app. The companionlink software is usually 49.95 to purchase but you can download a trial version for 14 days which works just fine. It took a total of about 25 minutes to download and sync my Palm and phone and I had previously spent at least 8 hours trying to get things to work. So frustrating. But thank you for at least offering some help.

Unable to Install Universal Wireless Keyboard with the CD that came with the Palm Tungsten E2 on my Windows Vista OS. Can some help? Would Appreciate it very much.

I recently bought a Palm Tungsten E2. I have been unable to install the Universal Wireless Keyboard software that came with the E2. Went online and downloaded the version 1.13 UWK and that would not install either. What did I do wrong?
Post relates to: Tungsten E2

For Vista that version will not let you install programs. Good news though is we have a version you can. Go here, http://www.palm.com/us/support/downloads/windesk62.html and install this on top of the version you already have. There is going to be a few changes on the desktop, there is no quick install, but the install tool.
Once you have that done just double click on keyboard and it will ask you your hotsync name and sync and your done.
Oh as a side note the check if this is your solution is only if the answer solves your original question.

Palm Tungsten E2 and Mac 10.3.9

I am getting a Palm Tungsten E2. What issues should I be aware of when trying to use it with iSync/OS 10.3.9? I plan on using it to keep my calendar and contacts handy, for the most part.
Also, I foresee upgrading to a new computer within 6 months- will the Tungsten still be useful with the new OS?

First things first...all installations should be updated to 4.0.5.

Palm Tungsten - Screen Digitizer

No device
I have a Palm Tungsten PDA. I have not used it in three years. Recently I charged the battery and tried to operate it. It asks me to tap a bullseye circle to set the screen digitizer. It will not accept a tap anywhere on the screen. The reset button also does not work. How can I get beyond this and to some old contacts stored inside?

There is a multi-page thread "stickied" at the top of this board which covers pretty much every cause and fix of digitizer issues:

Is it upgradable?
Thanks for helping.

Actually, your E2 is running PalmOS Garnet version 5.4.
You are viewing a different section of the device, probably some application version.

Exporting Palm Tungsten E2 contacts and Calendar to Microsoft Outlook 2010

How do I export Palm Tungsten E2 contacts and Calendar to Microsoft Outlook 2010. The normal suggested methods do not seem to work. I have part of the contact list in the Address Book area of Outlook, but have been unable to open the window.
I would appreciate any suggestions you might have.

If you sync with Palm Desktop, you should be able to do it directly on your computer:
Start Button > All Programs > Palm > PIM Conduit Sync > Sync with Outlook
On my Windows 8 installation, when I have the Start screen show all programs, there is an icon for Sync with Outlook. I haven't tried it, because I don't like Outlook.
Hope this helps.
