Help re: Palm Zire 31 and Vista

Hi- I can't get my palm and Vista to hotsync.  "the connection cannot be established." and " software not found"  I've downloaded the 6.2 version and still no luck. I have spent so much time trying to figure this out and I'm getting nowhere!Help!
Post relates to: Zire 31

Same question we ask everyone else who asks this question - which version of Vista?  32bit or 64bit?
64bit Vista can only be synced by a wireless method.  See the many sticky threads in the Windows HotSync section.

  • Palm Zire 71 and Will not Sync with information on old Laptop

    I can't get the Palm Zire 71 software on my old laptop to sync with my new Cradle that I bought on eBay.  I get a message that says something like 'The connection between your handheld computer and the desktop could not be established.  Please check your setup and try again."
    All my info is on the Palm Zire software on my old computer and I want to sync and move to my new laptop.  Please help!

  • I need serious help with frozen palm zire 21 and hotsync.

    Hi, My palm zire 21 is frozen! It is an older one, It froze then I reset on back and about 2days later it came back on, I don't know where my hotsync disc is to download! Then it froze again(maybe to full?) I need my info off of it, I would like to hotsync it to computer and then get another device, but can't right now. I have been online trying to figure out how to download something for it, but can't seem to figure it out! It beeps if I try to tap anything on it! If you have any suggestions let me know!AC
    Post relates to: Zire 21

    If the device will not function post a soft reset then a hard reset is needed. This will erase all data. There isn't anything to download that will make a non functioning Zire 21 start working.

  • Zire 21 and Vista

    I have a Palm Zire 21, running with my desktop on XP. I also have a laptop with Vista. Is there any software that will allow me to use my Palm with both computers?

    No... there are 2 different flavors of Microsoft Vista, Vista 32-bit and Vista 64-bit. To check this right-click on the "Computer" icon on your desktop (or on the start bar) and go to Properties. It will show you the bit encryption there.

  • Palm Zire 31 and Panther

    I Just got a cable for my Motorola V 400. And it works great with iSync. Now I found out that my Palm Zire 31 would Sync with my iCal and Address book and I want it to work. I downloaded the Palm Conduit program and it installed fine. I looked in the help and everything but it won't sync. I rebooted my computer and everything and now when I Hot Sync it says it synced but I looked on iCal and Address book and there is no information vise versa on the palm. Another thing is there is no icon on iSync for the Palm.

    Welcome to Apple Discussions.
    The issue here is that you've installed the Palm Desktop and your handheld is synchronizing with it, but not with the Address Book and iCal.
    If you want to synchronize with the Address Book and iCal, you must install iSync 1.5 and the iSync Palm Conduit 1.2. Those actions will deactivate the standard Palm conduits, which otherwise would conflict with the iSync Palm Conduit, and activate the iSync Palm Conduit.
    You can download the iSync Palm Conduit from here:
    http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/isyncpalmconduit.html
    Is is only intended for use with iSync 1.5 and Mac OS X 10.3.9 and earlier.

  • Calendar Sync, Palm Zire 31 and Mac OS 10.4.6

    We just purchased several Palm Zire 31 handhelds because that model is one on Oracle's list as "certified" to work with Calendar Sync. However, I cannot seem to get it to sync properly to Oracle Calendar. Prior to installing Calendar Sync it synced to my Palm Desktop data just fine. Please point me in the right direction.
    Here are all the versions and hardware:
    Powerbook G4 running Mac OS 10.4.6
    Palm Zire 31 running Palm OS 5.2.8
    Palm Desktop software 4.2.1
    Oracle Calendar Sync 9.0.4.2.10 (installed on Zire 31)
    Palm HotSync Manager 3.2
    Oracle Calendar (desktop software) 10.1.1.0.2.694

    I don't sync a Zire 31, but I do sync a variety of Treos and Tungsten units with 10.4.x. I sync my Events and Tasks with Oracle and my Addresses with the Apple conduit.
    Here are the directions I have come up with:
    First, make sure you are using the latest Oracle Palm Sync (sounds like you are)
    Second, make sure you have the latest iSync Palm conduit (version 3.0.2 under OS 10.4)
    open the iSync application, go to the Devices menu, and choose Enable Palm Sync for this device
    Click on the device name. Make sure Contacts is checked, but NOT Calendars
    Quit iSync
    Open Palm Desktop -> HotSync -> Conduit Settings
    choose iSync Conduit and click Conduit Settings. Check the box to enable Palm Sync for device
    Open MacintoshHD -> Library -> Application Support -> Palm Hotsync
    move Apple into Conduits folder
    move Oracle Calendar Address Conduit into Disabled Conduits folder
    HotSync, and you should be good to go.

  • Urgent Help! Palm Zire 31 Universal Keyboard typing gibberish!

    Hi everyone! I recently got my brother's PalmOne Zire 31 (yes, I know it's considered ancient these days), and his PalmOne universal wireless keyboard.
    Anyhow, after installing the drivers and programs, my brother and I set up the keyboard on the stand and pushed the infrared arm up in various directions, and found that something weird was happening. Wherever there was an IR signal, the keyboard was typing in giberrish; for example: control= s, tab= f, etc.
    Does anyone know how I can fix this problem, possibly without any hardware repair ? Thanks a lot! By the way, if harware repair is necessary, could you give me an estimate for how much it can be?
    Post relates to: Palm Pilot

    Well, thanks for the response, and I understand that it's the weekend and so on. However, how do you expect me to know terms like "wand."
    Do you mean the IR arm? Please be more specific next time. Anyways, once I have the arm up 90 degrees, where do I put the post-it? At the top? Cover the whole thing in post-its?
    You don't simply "put a bandage on the body." You put it where there's a cut. So please, give me clear, specific directions.
    In addition to the above, today my Palm just crashed when I went to the media option. It gave some weird Windows media error, then had a black text part at the bottum saying "Reset." After resetting it, the PalmOne Powered signal came on, and whenever I pushed the reset button, there was no avail; just a black screen, no matter how many times I'd press it, or how long I'd do it. The battery just died, so I put it back on charge (no noise whether or not it is/isn't charging). I don't know what's with these devices @_@. Sheesh, you leave them out for a year and they just go completely crazy.
    Anyhow ,thanks for your time in helping me solve this.

  • Palm Zire 71 and Real Player

    After taking a break from using my zire 71, I am trying to put new songs onto it.  The issue is that Real Player will NOT recognize the device.  It seems that they are too greedy to allow other devices, other than their ipods, to connect and transfer music.  Does anyone have a solution for this??  I've tried RealPlayer 11, and 10.5.  It worked less than a year ago.  Thank you for the help.
    Post relates to: Treo 650 (Unlocked GSM)

    zire 71 works with real player for palm OS. it doesn't work with latest real player versions such as real player 10 or 11. the reason why? real player for palm OS will convert the MP3 files into PDB files that will work for zire 71. you can download the file from realnetworks that you can find in the link provided below. http://www.realnetworks.com/industries/mobile/products/player/palm/index.html

  • Palm Zire M150 and Windows 7 64-bit

    This worked fine with Windows 7 32-bit, but not on Win 7 64-bit.
    Then I found this thread:
     http://forums.hpwebos.com/t5/Windows-HotSync/64-Bit-Palm-Desktop-Drivers-are-HERE/m-p/337516/message...
    I followed the instructions exactly, including the bit in message 6 about allowing Device Manager to show hidden devices.
    I was then able to do the hot sync with my device using the USB cable (the computer has BlueTooth but not IR; the Palm has IR but not Bluetooth; both have the USB connection), without any data in the Palm desktop directory - just doing the hotsync from the device.  It appeared to work okay, but unfortunately, it took out half my address book (including my entire family) and a lot of other data.
    Fortunately, I had saved the data directory elsewhere.  So I merged it with the newly-created data directory.  The device gave a message to click on a button to reset the device, which I did, and - voila! - all my data was there, both on the desktop and on the device.   I made a small change on the device and hotsync'd it again, and it worked fine.
    I'm new here and this is my first post; so if I goofed anything up, somebody please clue me in.

  • Palm Zire 31 and iSync

    I have the Hotsync Manager set up correctly and the information get transferred to the Palm. I receive no error messages. I have it sync all contacts and addresses.
    The problem is that it does not include all of the information for the contacts. All of the contacts are listed in the palm, just not al of the information. An example would be displaying only a work address and not a home address. I have downloaded and installed 421 Revd of the Palm Software.
    Any suggestions?
    I am runnning 10.4.4, iSyc 2.1.1 on a G4 Quicksilver.

    Actually—with iSync—that means it's working just fine. This issue is a long-standing shortcoming of the iSync Palm Conduit. Addresses labeled 'home' do not synchronize, and by default, address fields in Address Book records are labeled 'work' - not 'home.' Nice design, eh?
    You can work around it by labeling the address you want synchronized 'work' and place any secondary address information in the free-form Note field, which is synchronized.
    Or, you can purchase and download the Missing Sync for Palm OS from Mark/Space, which replaces the iSync Palm Conduit with three conduits: Mark/Space Contacts, Events and Tasks. There is no such limitation in the Mark/Space Contacts conduit, and it synchronizes multiple addresses, along with data that iSync does not: IM and URL data, for example.

  • Palm Zire not Sync

    I did not use my Palm Zire through most of 2010 and the battery ran down for a long period of time.  I am keeping information updated on computer and now need to down load or sync to the hand held.  I charged up the battery in hand held and tried to sync it to computer but information from computer is not transferring to hand held even though it goes through the sync process with message saying sync is complete.

    Radio Shack in the US has a charging system called iGo that has a basic charging brick with different tips for different devices.  The tips adjust the correct polarity and voltage.  I use it to charge my cell phone, GPS, and Palm TX and Zire72.

  • Reader for Palm OS 3.05 and Vista

    I'm trying to install the programme to Vista, but the installer
    'aborts' after copying files. I find the processes running in my
    task manager, but there's no programme running in the Applications
    section. It never installs anything.
    Has anyone else had this problem, and if so, how did they work
    around it-and get the bloody thing to install?
    I'd really like to be able to read my e-books on my Palm T/X and
    synch them from my new PC, which uses Windows Vista with all the
    most recent patches.
    Any advice would be most welcome.
    Kind regards,

    I used to checkout ebooks books from my old library to read on my Palm, but after I moved I found that my new library didn't offer them yet. Well, my library finally started making Adobe ebooks available for checkout, and I ran into this same problem. The instructions on the library website helped me fix it though http://overdrive.chipublib.org/F15652B9-E6EE-47B0-8CD5-179ACD3CB69D/10/305/en/Help-Reader -Format50.htm.
    It explains that you can't transfer files to a PDA with Adobe Reader 8, so you have to uninstall version 8 & then install version 7 instead.
    Here's some of the information they have on the site: "If you use Adobe Reader to transfer Adobe eBooks to your PDA, or if you use downloaded Adobe eBooks on multiple computers, it is recommended that you not install Adobe Reader 8 with ADE. Adobe Reader 8 with Adobe Digital Editions do not currently support transfer to PDAs or Named Activation, the process that allows the sharing of eBooks between multiple computers.
    Note that Adobe Reader 6 or 7 may check for updates and download Adobe Reader 8 automatically depending on your current settings....You have to turn off automatic updates, so this doesn't happen.
    Click here, or visit http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep2_allversions.html, to go to the Adobe Reader download page.
    The 'Download new and previous versions of Adobe Reader' screen is displayed.
    Complete 'Step 1 of 2' by selecting your 'Operating System', 'Version', and 'Language' from the dropdown menus. If you have Windows Vista, select 'Windows XP SP2' as your Operating System."
    I did what they recommended & so far everything is working fine. I did get a message saying that version 7 has a known compatability issue with Vista, but like I said it's working so far.
