Setup problem: Can't setup Treo 650 (Cingular) with iSync on Macbook

Hi,
Trying to use my Treo 650 with iSync on my MacBook. It worked fine with an iMac G5 running OS X 10.4.8.
I paired my Treo with the MacBook. That seemed to go OK, but the Bluetooth Setup Assistant showed a message saying "There were no supported services found on your device" at the end of the pairing process.
When I launched iSync, I went to Devices --> Enable Palm OS Syncing and let the conflicting Palm conduits disabled. No problem there.
But when I then choose Devices --> Add Device, a window appears as the MacBook searches and finds my phone. It then displays the message "1 device found", with the name of my device next to a phone icon. Beneath that, another message says "iSync cannot connect to this device".
Does anybody know what I'm doing wrong? My Treo is set to discoverable. I can't figure it out.
Thanks in advance!

The Add Device… response is normal. You cannot add a Palm device using that menu option - it is added as a consequence of selecting the Enable Palm OS Syncing… option beneath it in the list.
If you have successfully paired your Treo using Bluetooth and triggered the installation and configuration of it after selecting the Enable Palm OS Syncing… option and it still does not appear as a device in the main window of iSync, you should launch the HotSync Manager to insure that the iSync Palm Conduit appears—it's listed as the iSync Conduit—and that it has been activated: the checkbox in the conduit configuration panel should be checked.
This may also be a basic Bluetooth issue, as the your Treo contains several supported Bluetooth profiles, and is a supported device. You might want to break the link, and pair it once again, initiating that action from your smartphone and confirming it from your MacBook.

How can I sync my iPad 2 with my new MacBook Pro when it is already synced with my old MacBook? I am getting a message on the new MacBook Pro that says I am not allowed to sync the iPad 2 because it is synced to another iTunes library.

How can I sync my iPad 2 with my new MacBook Pro when it is already synced with my old MacBook? I am getting a message on the new MacBook Pro that says I am not allowed to sync the iPad 2 because it is synced to another iTunes library.

1) ensure iTunes is authorized for your iTunes store account(s)
2) connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
3) sync the device
iTunes will wipe the iPad but, since you transferred your purchases in the previous step, your content will be in your library and you can re-populate the iPad with it.
above works for purchases from the iTunes store. for everything else, check out this post by Zevoneer.
also, there are PhoneView and iRip.

Can't add treo 650

I have installed iSync 1.5 and iSync Palm Conduit 1.2. I want to sync My Treo 650 with iCal and Address Book. Then, I want to switch from Palm Desktop to Studiometry 5, which appears to be what the Management Doctor ordered for total studio management.
When I go to the HotSync Manager> Conduit Settings and click Enable iSync for this Palm Device, I get an error, "An error occurred with the settings file."
When I look at Console, all I get is this: "iSync Log created Sunday, November 4, 2007 6:24:30 PM EST."
In an earlier log, before I restarted the Mac, I found one log saying I should sync the iPod with iTunes. I don't have an iPod.
What's wrong, and what can I do about this?

Well, if you have really installed iSync 1.5 and the iSync Palm Conduit 1.2 on a Macintosh of some sort running Mac OS X 10.4.10—or, actually, any release of Mac OS X 10.4.x—you are doomed.
Well, not exactly. But if you've done that, you've got a lot of work ahead of you…

Sprint Treo 650 connection with Apple Powerbook G4 867 MHz runing 10.4.6 ??

I am trying to use my Sprint Treo 650 as a modem with the Apple Powerbook laptop running the latest version of Tiger.
The old Treo 600 worked just fine using the laptop with 10.3.7.
But the old 600 died and I was forced to purchase a 650.
The Treo 650 manual says its possible to use the Treo 650 as a modem. The Apple manual says its possible to use a mobile phone as a modem.
I have actually gotten to the point where, after inserting "passords" like 654379 on my Treo after they were issued by the Apple. I've been told:
"Congratulations, you are connected"
They lie to me.
I've read about "hacks" for the TREO and the need to install special scripts. The instructions go for 26 written pages.
Is there not an easier way? These are the kind of things that make me not even want to visit the Apple Store ever again.
And I love my Apples!
Thanks for letting me vent.
Power Mac G4 Mac OS X (10.4.6)

Don't know if it makes a difference (I don't think it does), but I have no problem connecting Treo 650 (Sprint Vision service) to my MBP 10.4.6 as a wireless modem. Make sure that you have the latest firmware on Treo 650 that enables DUN (Dial Up Network) on BT pref.
I just simply used the OSX BT setup, making sure that my 650 is discoverable and with a code (paired) for security. It is also using 650 serial port as RS232 port.
Connecting to 650 is done through Network connection on system Pref or via Airport menu. Under BT, configure as Other, the number to dail is #777 with account name and password to your Sprint Vision account (not your Sprint main account login or pw). It should be something like [email protected] for account name and corresponding password for that.
I think this is all you need to do. Did not use any hacks (in fact I completely stay away from Hacks - I have simple needs and want to keep things simple).
You'll have to probably try few times to get it all right and connect but it should not be too bad.
Hope this helps
Good luck....

Treo 650 (Sprint) vs. iSync 10.4.6 and/or 10.4.7

Since the 10.4.6 update, I have been unable to get my iCal data across to my Treo 650. All my HOT SYNC CONDUIT and iSYNC PREFS are set correctly, but I am only getting ADDRESS info, not iCal info.
HOT SYNC LOG SHOWS:
New ADDRESS BOOK entry appears on Treo 650 in good condition.
New iCal entry does NOT appear on Treo 650.
The way I'm reading this HOTSYNC log, it appears to me (uneducated in this sort of thing) that the error message is concerning the DATEBOOK, which is what would be the iCal data that isn't being transfered.
Please advise (and thanks to all for your input and help!).

Any ideas why the DATEBOOK conduit isn't getting there too?
Willconn

I apologize for the confusion in the other thread concerning this issue. As Aur pointed out, DatebookDB refers to the calendaring not contact records type. That's what I get for trying to deal with technical issues when I am half-asleep.
The DatebookDB referred to in your HotSync log is not the Palm Datebook Conduit - rather, it is the Palm OS DatebookDB application on your Treo itself. I have only ever seen this issue crop up under one of two scenarios, neither of which appear to apply to you:
• it is a Verizon handset and Wireless Sync is not configured properly
• you do not have sufficient free memory on your smartphone or handheld organizer
You addressed both of these issues in the other thread, so I don't know what you can do except contact Palm support to address the issue. I don't believe that iSync is the problem. I believe that the issue involves your smartphone itself. Good luck with that international translation thing if you decide to call Palm…
An alternative is to perform a hard reset of your device, which will erase all contact and calendaring data, choose the option to Reset Sync History in iSync after backing up your existing contact and calendaring data in the Address Book and iCal, then initiating a synchronization in which you should be given the option to overwrite the contents of your handheld. If you are not, then stop the process, remove your device from iSync, add it back again, and try once more to synchronize. What you want to perform is a first-time synchronization event after resetting the Treo, in which you are asked if you want to merge or replace your data. You want, of course, to replace the data on your Treo, which is empty because of the hard reset.

How can I sync my iPhone 4 with a new MacBook Pro without losing all my data and settings?

I used to sync my iPhone 4 with a PC running Windows XP until the hard drive died. Thankfully, I already had a backup of all my iTunes media (Songs, TV Shows, Movies, Podcasts, Apps, etc), so when I bought a new MacBook Pro, transferring my iTunes library was easy.
My problem now is that I want to sync my iPhone 4 with my new MacBook Pro without losing all the data and settings. I have already used iTunes to back it up and transfered my purchases onto the mac. I just need help to sync the iPhone with the Mac without losing app data, emails, contacts, settings.
Everytime I click on the tabs (to sync contacts, apps, music, et al), I get an error message that reads:
"Are you sure you want to sync apps? All existing apps and their data on the iPhone “Ryan's iPhone” will be replaced with apps from this iTunes library."
What do I do? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Ryan

I can't sync my iPod Touch with my new Macbook.

I'm having trouble syncing my iPod touch with my new Macbook Air and I don't know what to do. I've managed to get all my music and films etc. off my old iTunes library but when I plug my iPod into the computer, it doesn't come up with the typical 'erase/replace or transfer' message that you get when you plug it into other computers. Someone please help because it is driving me insane. The iPod was originally synced with a Windows computer and I think this might be what is causing my problem but I really need help fixing it. Thanks!

Copy the entire /Music/iTunes/ folder from old computer to new computer.

Major Printing Problem - Can't Print in any App, with Any Printers

I help my Aunt with her three Macs (2 eMacs, 1 MacBook, all running 10.4.8 right now) at her office, and she had me come to help recently because one of the eMacs stopped printing anything; here's what happens:
In every app besides Word (e.g. Safari, TextEdit, AppleWorks, etc.): If I click File>Print... or press 'Command-P,' the cursor turns into the spinning rainbow for a few seconds, and nothing happens (meaning I can do anything I want in the application, as if nothing at all happened).
In Word: If I click File>Print... or press 'Command-P,' Word sits for a minute with the spinning rainbow, then locks up and quits itself. BUT, if I click the little 'print' button in the toolbar (the one that bypasses the print dialog box), the file will print.
I tried resetting the printing system, setting up different printers on the computer, printing over the network and over USB (directly connected to port 1 on the eMac), and re-downloading/installing the printer drivers for the Brother 5250DN laser printer AND the HP LaserJet 1200 laser printer, but all to no avail.
I can run the Printer Setup Utility and recognize the printers (via Bonjour over the network and via USB), and the computer can run the printer setup utilities, so I know the printer communicates fine with the computer. I also can print to the printers (both the networked one and the Brother) from any of the other Macs (including my own laptop) over the network. But I can't get the print dialog box to show up for any printer on the one eMac.
I'm determined that this problem lies within the OSX printing system, but reinstalling the whole OS is not an option, as I would have to re-setup all the software, user accounts, special network settings, etc. (even if I do an Archive and Install). Is there anything I can do??? (I seem to recall someone else having this problem, but I can't find that thread on the forum).

There's another thread describing this same problem. I am having the issue too. As I posted in the other thread:
"Well, I did a full Archive and Install, with restore user settings, and the thing still won't print! All apps crash when trying to print (except Mail.app, which is odd). So it appears all of the files required for printing are there since Mail.app works, but I still can't print from Safari, Firefox, Preview, TextEdit, etc etc. ARGH!!!!
Next step is to downgrade to 10.4.8."
If that doesn't work, I guess an Erase and Install would be th next step.

Having problems: can't open an html file with textedit to change code

Hi. I have been trying to open up both my index.html and my Welcome.html files with textedit in order to change the HTML codes for them - but it doesn't seem to work. When I open them using text edit I still get a discomboblutaed form of the web page and no html codes. HOWEVER when I open them with Word I can get at the HTML code. Will changing the code in Word work or must I use textedit to do it? ULtimately does anyone know how to fix the fact that your web URL always gets redirected to the home page because of the index file. For Instance, my web site is www.zanzibarhotelbeach.com but when you type that in it redirects to the opening page www.zanzibarhotelbeach.com/Home.html which is a problem for when you want to submit your web site to be found on the net. Any help would be MUCH appreciated! Cheers!

Give TextWrangler a try. It's a free editor by the makers of BBEdit and is very well suited for editing HTML.
But as far as your URL in the window, unless you have URL forwarding with masking you will always get the page name at the end of the URL in the browser's window. That's just how it works. With masking you will only get www.zanzibarhotelbeach.com in every window of the site. BUT visitors will only be able to bookmark the first page of your site. My tutorial site, http://toadstutorials.info/ is set up that way.
This thread discusses how the different domain name forwarding works:

Yet ANOTHER New Problem - Can No Longer Upload an Image with 64 Bit IE9

I've been uploading images as part of forum posts successfully for weeks using IE9 64 bit, set for Compatibility View.
Suddenly, starting yesterday, using the little camera icon with IE9 64 bit, when I hit the [Browse] button, the entire IE window just disappears, losing the response in progress!
Doing the exact same thing in IE9 32 bit works, and brings up the dialog with which to select a file. So now the workaround is that I must use the 32 bit IE to access this site.
Nothing is changing on this end. No new Add-ons, no config changes. Cache has been cleared to no avail. Nothing appears in the Windows event logs.
Can you folks please try a little harder to settle this forum software down? It's getting rather frustrating to have features just keep dropping out like this.

That is a browser preference, not a preference set by some site through HTML. If you are unable to get this configured properly you need to ask in a Microsoft IE forum.
Thank you for your thoughts.
Your answer sounds authoritative, but just what preference would you say governs this behavior? I don't believe there is one, at least not one that directly sets the IE default open folder behavior. And I don't have my browser delete its cache or anything on the way out.
Your answer would seem reasonable but for the fact that the behavior I'm observing changed here recently - in the past week or so - without my having changed browser preferences. Could a Windows Update have changed IE9? Possibly, but I don't recall there being one specifically that coincided with this observed change.
No disrespect intended, but there's no reason to think the script driving the File Open dialog can't request a specific starting folder. That's what I think has been changed here.

For me, the dialog simply opens to the last place I elected to open from. It stays that way until I choose to change it again.
What browser/version are you running? Just curious. And have you cleared your cache and checked with the current forum software?

When I set up my exchange account on iPad2 cameras always become disabled. What's the problem, can I use my cams along with using exchange mail?

Can someone help me with this question? Why iPad 2 disables camera when I set up my Exchange mail account? How can I enable camera along with using mail?

The iPad is not disabling the camera - the administrator for your Exchange account is. You need to go to the person who administers your Exchange account and ask them to lift the restriction on cameras in their Exchange system.

Problem: Can't see photos on TV with video IPod

I'm having a *** of a time getting my photos on the iPod to show up on my TV. I have one of those cables with the white/yellow/red ends made by Griffin for the iPod. I have an amp with the three color plugs, and a VCR which has the same. I get the audio ok, but in no permutation do I get the photos. It's true my TV is 15 years old and has no color input receptacle, but when I connect my camcorder in the usual way I get audio and video. Just not with iPod.
I have a newer TV in another room which has the three color inputs, and when I connect the iPod to that, I get no photos either.
Am I missing some setting within the iPod that I should be using??

They are the two options for TV signal on the iPod. To be honest, I don't know what they mean or how they relate to various television sets. My suggestion is to try both and see if either one works. NTSC is the one that works on both TV sets I've plugged my iPods into, one being a photo iPod, the other being a video iPod.

Can't boot from external HD with Leopard on MacBook Pro or PowerBook

I can't boot from an external HD with 10.5.5 Leopard on either my MacBook Pro or my PowerBook G4. I had a PowerBook G4 from which I could boot from either an external FW400 drive or an external FW800 drive. At some point, I stopped being able to boot from any HD, but I'm not sure if it was after upgrading to Leopard or not? Recently I just bought a MacBook Pro 15" and transferred all my files over from the PowerBook to the MacBook Pro during the install. However, even with the new computer, still cannot boot from an external drive. I have Leopard 10.5.5 running on both the external HD and the internal HD.
Is this a common problem? Anybody know how to fix it?
Thanks!

That probably wasn't very clear was it? I have several ext. HD's, some with bootable systems and some just backups. One bootable disk was made with CopyCloner and the other was a clean format and only had an original install of the OS just to use for an emergency boot. They both booted just fine. Then at some point, they stopped being bootable. I have used the Control Panel "Startup" and also used the Option key boot and picked the bootable disk. Neither one boots anymore. It started doing this on the old PowerBook and then also refused to boot on the MacBook Pro. This is not the problem with the HD since it happens with any bootable HD. Something is going on at the system level and it was transfered from the PowerBook to the MacBook.
Thanks,
Bill

Can't connect to iTunes Store with brand new MacBook

I've looked at several other posts but nothing working. Able to get to iTunes Store with my account and the PC that I'm trying to dump for the new MacBook. Anyone have thoughts? I can connect to all other web sites.
Thanks for helping.

There seems to be a problem accessing the iTunes Store through a proxy server. I found support documentation that says to redownload itunes and install 8.0.1 (12) the previous version was 8.0.1 (11) but I still can't connect to the store.
