Centro Hotsync problem: two Date Books, second never finishes syncing

I have a Centro. It worked fine syncing for many months using the USB cable. For some reason, now it won't synchronize. All the information in Palm Desktop on my computer disappeared -- I only have my calendar on the phone now. When I try to sync, the HotSync Progress box appears on my computer, and if I show the details, it gives me the following, where there are two Date Books and the second one never completes:
Package Installer -- done
Install -- done
Install Service Templates -- done
Install To Card -- done
HotSync Exchange -- done
Date Book -- done
Date Book -- synchronizing
Address Book
Address Book
To Do List
To Do List
Memo Pad
Memo Pad
Addit
Media
As you can see, several items from Date Book on are doubled, and the second Date Book gets stuck in perpetual synchronizing.
I haven't found any answer for this in searching the forums. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling Palm Desktop. I followed advice on Palm's troubleshooting page to rename my username on Palm Desktop and to delete my username from the phone. None of it made any difference. 
Thanks for your help.

check the hotsync log for the 2nd user (2nd centro that froze).
try see if you can find any significant error message or codes.
also try to attempt syncing the 2nd centro and this time change the action of the datebook/calendar to handheld overwrites the desktop.
that if your desktop is good to be overwritten.
it is very unusual to behave this way where both of the centros have 2 different user ID's and both are syncing to palm desktop.

  • Itunes never finishes syncing w/ my Ipod

    For the last few months, Itunes will never finish syncing with my Ipod (I think 5th generation). I have the latest updates from Apple, and have about 27 gb's of the 30gb filled up with mainly music. I add ratings to the songs, but other than that, and a few song additions, there isn't much else to sync. In fact, when I first start syncing with Itunes, the center display window (i.e. where track info is shown) will tell me what is being synced over. Eventually it just says, something like "syncing with Ipod -- Do not disconnect". I've tried waiting for two days, and it'll remain like that. I end up pushing the eject button to free it. The ipod takes 5-10 before it is finally released from Itunes. Any ideas on how to fix?

    I get this problem as well from time to time. It always seems to work itself out by it self too. What I do when it's acting up is when it says it's done my iPod screen will go to the main menu for about a second then back the the syncing do not unplug so I just time it right when it's at the main menu and unplug it then. So far it hasn't damaged anything.

  • Recently my pc crashed and I had to have a new profile built.  now when syncing my iphone to the computer the sync gets stuck on step 8 and "syncing artwork"  It never finishes syncing...just sits there for hours.  How do I fix this?

    Recently my pc crashed and I had to have a new profile built.  Now when syncing my iphone 4s to the computer the sync gets stuck on step 8 and "syncing artwork"  It never finishes syncing...just sits there for hours.  Subsequently most of my music and apps are missing from my iphone because it never finishes syncing.  How do I fix this?

    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 iPhone but, since you transferred your purchases in the previous step, your content will be in your library and you can re-populate the iPhone with it.
    above works for purchases from the iTunes store. for everything else, check out this post by Zevoneer.

  • Data entry problem with Date Book

    am suddenly unable to enter data into the Date Book. Every keystroke results in a new 'untimed event' line being placed at the top of the screen.
    I have loaded the latest firmware upgrade and tried warm and cold re-boots.
    Any help appreciated
    (Tungsten-C )
    Post relates to: Tungsten C

    Hard reset tried several times. No change in the problem - before or after re-synching with desktop.
    It appears that the Palm's program is no longer recognizing that keystrokes are being entered where there is a time (each key entry triggers a new and separate 'no-time' line at top of screen.
    I am abler to enter data on computer and then transfer it to the Tungsten via 'synch'. Such data cannot be edited from the Palm (same result as above).
    Also - if I enter a time to a 'no-time' entry, it too cannot then be edited or added to.
    Help still needed,  Thanks

  • Difference between two dates in seconds/milliseconds with Expressions

    Hi,
    I need to write a query using Expression(Builder) which calculates the difference between two columns (date/timestamps). As of other requirements I am not able to use JPQL, so I tried to create the query with the Expression framework. The difference between the two dates can be calculated with the
    ExpressionMath.substract(...)
    method. The result is a Date-like object storing the difference between both dates. But how can I cast this difference to a long or something like this with expressions?
    Thanks,
    Thomas

    Date functions are very database dependent, as each database has its own set of functions for processing dates.
    The functions are defined in the Expression class, you can try,
    truncateDate, roundDate, or datePart

  • IPhone never finishes syncing

    I have an iPhone 3G and all of a sudden, I am unable to complete a sync. The iTunes will stop responding in the middle of it as it says "Finishing Sync". I tried my other PC and it did the same thing. No music or ringtones will sync either. I tried just one song. It wiped out my songs already on my iPhone. What can I do to get iTunes to finish syncing? Could it be my phone? I have yet to download Ver 4.1. I am too scared.

    After browsing through several similar posts, "https://discussions.apple.com/message/11273586#11273586" got me to try to un-sync contacts. That got the sync to finish as before. Further posts seemed to indicate that a corrupt file would cause this never ending sync. I think that's true since not syncing the contacts fixed the problem. I don't know how to fix corrupt contacts.
    Anybody have a suggestion.

  • TS4062 I have synced my iTunes music in iPad with my new iPhone. Problem two audio books which I purchased from I tunes failed to come on my iPhone. Help!

    How do I sync audio books from iTunes in iPad with my new iPhone 4???

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
    Providing you are simply updating your existing details and not changing to another account, when you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your computer, you need to sign out of the account from your computer first, then sign back in using your updated details. (System Preferences > iCloud, click the sign out button)
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iTunes account on your iOS device, you need to sign out from your iOS device first, then sign back in using your updated details. (Settings > store, scroll down and tap your ID)
    If you are using iMessages or FaceTime, you will also need to log out and into your ID there too.

  • Problem Outputting Data From Second Table Based On ID in FIrst Table

    Hi Everyone: I have been stuck for a couple of days on a
    couple of issues. Here is one:
    I have a COURSES table. I also have a COURSES Summary page
    that displays all of the courses and related info.
    When a user clicks on a specific course it takes them to a
    courses detail page for that specific course. PROBLEM: Everything
    is working ok except: I have a separate table that has the teachers
    information in it. The two tables are related by The Primary Key
    (PERSONNEL_ID) in the Teachers table (Called PERSONNEL_LISTS) and
    MT_ID in the COURSES TABLE. I don't want the MT_ID to be displayed
    on the details page: I want the teachers first and last name.
    Here are the two tables:
    http://www.coolflasher.com/Courses_table.gif
    http://www.coolflasher.com/Personnel_table.gif
    The SQL that is currently being used on the Course Details
    page is:
    <cfparam name="URL.COURSE_ID" default="-1">
    <cfparam name="URL_COURSE_ID"
    default="#URL.COURSE_ID#">
    <cfparam name="SESSION._Insert_COURSES" default="-1">
    <cfquery name="COURSES"
    datasource="SCHEDULING_TRACKER">
    SELECT *
    FROM COURSES
    WHERE COURSE_ID = <cfqueryparam value="#URL.COURSE_ID#"
    cfsqltype="cf_sql_numeric"> OR ( -1= <cfqueryparam
    value="#URL_COURSE_ID#" cfsqltype="cf_sql_numeric"> AND
    COURSE_ID=<cfqueryparam value="#SESSION._Insert_COURSES#"
    cfsqltype="cf_sql_numeric">)
    </cfquery>
    And I'm outputting the MT_Code:
    <cfoutput>#COURSES.MT_ID#</cfoutput>
    I tried adding the PERSONNEL_LISTS table to the query, but I
    can't figure out how to get it to output the FIRST_NAME and
    LAST_NAME column that correspond with the MT_ID in the COURSES
    table.
    Courses
    Table

    Something like this maybe?
    (NOTE: you should explicitly list column names from both
    tables instead of using *)
    <cfquery name="COURSES"
    datasource="SCHEDULING_TRACKER">
    SELECT t.FIRST_NAME,
    t.LAST_NAME,
    c.COURSE_NAME,
    c.COURSE_ID,
    ---whatever other fields that you want to select
    FROM COURSES AS c
    INNER JOIN PERSONNEL_LISTS AS t ON c.MT_ID = t.PERSONNEL_ID
    WHERE c.COURSE_ID = <cfqueryparam value="#URL.COURSE_ID#"
    cfsqltype="cf_sql_numeric">
    OR ( -1 = <cfqueryparam value="#URL_COURSE_ID#"
    cfsqltype="cf_sql_numeric">
    AND c.COURSE_ID=<cfqueryparam
    value="#SESSION._Insert_COURSES#" cfsqltype="cf_sql_numeric">)
    </cfquery>
    Also, not sure what you are expecting -1 = <cfqueryparam
    value="#URL_COURSE_ID#" cfsqltype="cf_sql_numeric"> to do.

  • Itunes never finishes sync

    I have been having this problem with my iPod Photo for the past year or so.
    I have 8400 songs (36.8 Gb) in iTunes v 7.4.3.1
    Whenever I plug in my iPod Photo, it says "do not disconnect" and iTunes says "Syncing iPod. Do not disconnect."
    These messages never go away. I have left the ipod connected for up to a WEEK at a time and the message never goes away.
    I thought this was iPod related, but then I bought a newer ipod (80Gb iPod classic) and I have the same problem with that unit too.
