Can't sync Palm TX with my iMac

Two months ago, I bought my wife a Palm TX, and began trying to get it to communicate with my wife's iMac. I'm still trying.
When I run ISync, it can't find the device. When I run Palm Desktop, it can't find the Addressbook data (greyed out). This should be a simple matter -- she simply wants to have her address book info appear in the Palm, which seems to work in every other way.
I've installed iSync 1.5 and iSync Palm Conduit 1.2, as the Apple Help file suggests. No cigar.
Anyone have any ideas?

You should reinstall the Palm Desktop version which shipped on CD-ROM with your Palm T|X, a handheld device which is not explicitly supported by the Palm Desktop version 4.2.1 revision D, which you may have downloaded here:
http://www.palm.com/us/support/macintosh/macdesk421revd.html
After doing that, again attempt to add your device to iSync by selecting the Enable Palm OS Syncing… option under iSync's Devices menu.
If that does not correct the problem, you'll have to consult with Palm Support, as the usual fixes involving the Palm Desktop just do not apply to the T|X and the Z22 handheld organizers.

  • Can I sync Palm TI with native OS X.5 (Leopard) mail, address book, and calendar?

    It's too late for me to return the Palm and I hope I have not wasted my money.  Can I sync with the Mac mail, address book, and calendar?  Or must I switch over and use the Palm desktop software?  Thanks for any clues about how to work with my Mac and the Palm TI.

  • Can't sync my iPhone with my iMac using iCloud.

    I have installed Lion (10.7.3) on my iMac.  I have attempted to enable iCloud on my iMac, my iPhone (4S), and new iPad.  I am unable to sync my iMac with my iPhone or my new iPad.  I am able to sync my iPhone with my iPad and vice versa via iCloud.

    you pick one mac, and stick with it.
    when using multiple computers you will be asked if you want to erase because the iphone is meant to be used with one library.

  • Can't sync palm centro with Mac G4 and palm software 4.2.1

    I just purchased a palm centro690 smart phone.  My service is with verizon.  I have a Mac G4 with OS 10.4.11.  I already had palm software installed on my computer and was using the palm calendar as my main calendar.  My calendar and address data won't sync with my palm centro.  I've tried changing the settings of the conduits to 'MacIntosh overrides device'.  I've tried removing and then reinstalling the palm software as well.  Strangely enough, the memos and the tasks did hotsync.  I spent around 2 hours with  palm tech support and nothing is working.  I'm not completely sure, however, that I correctly removed the palm software from my desktop before reinstalling the new software.  Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated.

    Hello Allen G
    Thank you so much for your reply.  I did speak to a different customer service person at Palm tech support.  I think that the problem was that I had a different username on my device (from a previous test) and after changing that and doing a hard reboot of the phone and also changing the settings on the proper conduits, it is now working.  I had tried changing the settings on the conduits before, but I think that it had synced with the wrong username on the device for some reason.  It now seems to be working.

  • I have a new hard drive on my imac  I want to sync my ipad(which has the files I lost when my old hard drive died), which holds the files I lost when my old hard drive died.  How can I sync my ipad with my new hard drive?

    My hard drive on my IMac died, so I have a new hard drive.  I want to sync my Ipad(which has the files I lost when my old hard drive died) back with my IMac. How can I sync my Ipad with my new IMac hard drive without erasing my legacy files on the Ipad at the same time?

    Copy everything from your backup copy of your cpomputer to your new hard drive.

  • After updating my Safari I can no longer sync my ipad with my imac. What do I do to get it to work again?c

    I updated my Safari to be able to get into the itunes store again and now I can't sync my ipad to my imac anymore.  What do I do to get it synced again?

    Really?  Safari is not updated as part of any standalone process.  Do you mean Safari on your iMac?  Then did you really update OS X?
    Sorry, it's not at all clear what you really did.  You should provide us with version numbers of:
    OS X
    iOS
    iPad model number
    iTunes

  • Why do I get an error message when trying to sync my ipads with my imac

    We have two ipads - version 2 I think - the last ones with the old style plug.  Both are running IOS 7.1.1  Over the last week, every time I try to sync either ipad with my imac (27" - about 18 months old) which is running OSX 10.9.2 I get the following error message.  "The Ipad cannot be synced. An unknown error has occurred (1723)"  In every case it takes a while for the error message to appear - the sync gives every impression of rolling along just fine through the various steps - when it reaches step 5 of 6 (syncing photos) it seems to hang up, then after a while the error message shows up. 
    Interestingly, there are no photos on the ipad, so nothing to sync to the imac, but I discovered all of this when I tried to sync some photos in the other direction, from iphoto to one of the ipads. All I got was the pin wheel of death. I am running the most current version of iphoto too.
    Any suggestions on how to fix this would be gratefully accepted.

    Can you create a test Project in PrE 9 and does that work. If so, close that Project and then Open it again in PrE 9.
    It could be as simple as your PrE 8 Projects just not Opening in PrE 9. There is often forward compatibility, but not always. It is usually best to finish Projects in the version, in which they were started.
    Good luck,

    I'm having the same problem with my 4S. I have to constantly reboot my iMac or turn off my phone a few times to get it to sync. Before when I had 5.1.1 everything seemed to work just fine. I'm sure its a bug......
    Both my ipads running 5.1.1 have zero issues syncing via wifi or directly plugged in.

  • Syncing a Macbook with an Imac

    Is there an easy way to sync a macbook with a Imac? i.e. firewire...any suggestions would be great !
    Thank you!

    iSync synchronizes only contact, calendaring and task data with mobile handsets and Palm devices. .Mac Syncsynchronizes only bookmarks, calendars, contacts, keychains, mailbox structures, and mail rules, signatures and smart mailboxes between two or more Macintosh desktop of portable computers using a .Mac account.
    You need to consider a program like ChronoSync is you wish to replicate one environment on another machine:

  • TS1627 All of a sudden, I can't sync my Iphone with Outlook. The phone just says "no calendar"

    All of a sudden, I can't sync my IPhone with Outlook. The calendar on the phone is now blank.

    Similar problem.
    No problem with the imac G5 but tower Power PC allows only the initial sync (ie after erasing all contacts and events in my phone and reseting device in bluetooth syst pref and in isync).
    For the following syncings I always get the same message.
    [K800i] Connection to the phone failed.
    Please make sure that your phone is turned on. If this error occurs again, please restart your phone.
    Restarting my phone does not help.
    Anyone an idea?

  • HT4623 I have a 3g v 2.2 that wont sync or update with my imac v 10.6

    have a 3g v 2.2 that wont sync or update with my imac v 10.6

    If your computer is running an OS X prior to Snow Leopard 10.6,
    the answer (if it is an Intel-based Mac; not old PowerPC model)
    would be to buy the retail Snow Leopard 10.6 DVD from Apple
    for about $20, and install it. Then update that to 10.6.8 by using
    the installed Snow Leopard online to get Combo Update v1.1 for
    Snow Leopard 10.6.8. After that is installed & updated, run the
    system's Software Update again, to see what else is available to
    that system.
    Later systems can then be looked into at Mac App Store, once
    the computer is running Snow Leopard 10.6.8.
    And if your computer is a Power PC (G4/G5, etc) and has no
    Core2Duo kind of CPU -- See "About this Mac" in apple menu
    to disclose the general info about your Mac. Also you can see
    even more by clicking on "More Info" when looking in there...
    If it isn't an Intel-based Mac, it can't run a system past 10.5.8.
    Hopefully this helps.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • I have updated my iPhone 3s to the latest software. I had backed up my phone before I did this. Now I have lost my music and apps. I can't sync the phone with my Mac, I can't re-download as the phone says I don't have any music or apps available. Help!

    I have updated my iPhone 3Gs to the latest software in an attempt to iron out a problem with a new telephone network provider (Tmobile). I had backed up my phone before I did this. Now I have lost my music and apps. I can't sync the phone with my Mac, I can't re-download from iTunes as the phone says I don't have any music or apps available to re-download although it all shows up on my Mac. The music and app content cannot be restored when I try to restore the phone from the back up I madeon my Mac. Help!

    Working on that now.  I'm just getting frustrated that everytime I run updates for the phone I end up with tech problems that I have to spend time solving as opposed to updates that actually improve my usage.  Now I will once again get to spend hours reloading my phone all for updates that didn't affect my usage in the first place.
