NEEDED "Hot Sync USB Cable for Palmone Zire 31 PDA"

I am looking for a Hot Sync USB Cable for a Palmone - Zire 31 PDA. I have searched the internet up and down yet, all places I've browsed are either out of stock or the item is out dated. Yes, I know that I've had it since 2005 but it is still in perfect working condition and I'm not going to rock the boat and buy an updated one when I have one already.
If there is someone out there who can assist me with locating the above referenced cable please let me know.

The Z does not have a cable with a hotsync button. The device does come with a screen tap for hotsync. It should look like two arrows going in a circle chasing each other. Connect the USB cable that came with this device and tap on this icon.

Error: "Conduit Manager quit unexpectedly" during Mac Hot Sync

Hello! After many years of successfully hot-syncing my Palm m500 to my various Macs, i'm suddenly getting an error message every single time my Hot Sync tries to sync the Datebook data:
The application Conduit Manager quit unexpectedly.
Mac OS X and other applications are not affected.
Click Relaunch to launch the application again.
i've already tried reattaching the USB cables and the Palm m500 into the cradle, and rebooting my Mac several times, and removing the "com.palm.xxxx.plist" files and the "Palm Desktop Info" file from my users/library/preferences folder. and i've spent several hours cruising these forums but nothing has worked. I've tried hot synching about 10 times in the last 12 hours but i keep getting this same error.
i also tried slowing down my hot sync by pressing the Shift key on my Mac during the entire hot sync, but i still get this error:
Conduit Manager: Unexpected error #-111
i tried to paste my full log report below but i ran into the 20k character limit for this form. since it looks like it's "Thread 4" that is causing the crash, i've deleted other parts of the log report but can send those to you in another posting if that would help.
thanks in advance for any help you can offer! i love my Palm m500 as I much prefer it to Apple's iCal system and would like to fix this problem so I don't need to abandon my Palm!

I had the same problem syncing my Palm TX with 10.5.8. After being without my Palm for 3 weeks, I bought Snow leopard, and all was fine again. I found out at an Apple store that 10.5.8 was full of propblems, and this was one of them.
Fast forward: I've been using 10.6 ever since it was released, happily syncing away with my Palm ... until Friday night (2 days ago), when it stopped working, and then I discovered that Palm does not and will not support Mac OS 10.6. So I'm urgently trying to migrate everything on Palm to my iPod Touch, exporting to 10.4 on an old iBook, since it will still sync with it, then moving the data to my iMac's 10.6, and then syncing with my iPod Touch.
I'm working on the problem now, and have my Schedule migrated, but now need to get my ToDo, Address Book and Memos done.
The 10.6 Address Book (v5.0.1) doesn't support the Palm's custom fields like Tiger's Address Book (4.0.6). I can't yet find a way to export the Palm's ToDos in a format that iCal can consume, and Notes on the iPod (for my Memos, possibly) is not supported on 10.6 yet for my iPod Touch.
1 step forward, 3 steps back, so far; but absolutely necessary, now that Palm has withdrawn from the Mac market.
Any ideas on these 3 problem areas, from anyone, would be most welcome.

Hot Sync with Non-latin Character Display Problem

I have a XP Home Desktop with Palm Desktop 4.01 installed. When I do a hot sync with my Sony Clie T655C, the chinese characters are display correctly in both XP home Desktop and the Clie.
Now, I have a netbook with window7 Starter installed for travelling use. It took me a while to resolve the problem on the hotsync with window 7 starter and sony clie. At the end, I have Palm desktop v6.2 and Palmhotsyncsetup from pimlico on the netbook. I am able to do a hotsync with cradle/cable, but not through network (with TCP/IP not listen error message).
I have installed the chinese, English, french IME for the window 7 Starter netbook. I am able to type Chinese character in Notepad and Word and display the character correctly. I am able to save the file ( filename in both chinese and english character), re-open it and all characters are displayed correctly.
But with Palm Desktop v6.2, I am able to type chinese and the characters are displayed correctly in calendar/data book. When I close the palm desktop and re-open it again. All the characters become "?", as a result, I can not fully evaluate the software Pimlico for window desktop. As it only works with Palm desktop v6.2.
Any suggestion?

Problem Hot Syncing my Palm 105 under OS X 10.4.4

I get the message on the M105: "Your handheld computer & the desktop could not be established ..."
I am connecting the M105 via a USB/Serial cable, which works when I connect it to the USB port on my PC laptop. I have had it connected to the IMAC at start up.
I have installed Palm OS 4.2.1. I decided to try iSync and enabled Isync for the palm. ISync recognized the palm and told me to press the hot sync button on the M105. Before Isync completed, the M105 gave the "non-connection" message above. Isync help info. suggests syncing with Palm Hot Sync manager before using Isync. However, I was unable to do that -- I kept getting the same message on the M105. The Isync log indicates that it connected, but the M105 sure didn't think so, and my address/date info is not in the Palm desktop.
The Missing Sync tool does not list the M105 as being supported.
What to do?

Your assumption is correct -- that's what I'm trying
to do. The Radio Shack cable goes from serial to USB
and I hook the M105 to that cable and then into the
USB port on the Mac. It does work on the USB port on
the Dell machine. On the Dell, I do the same thing
I'm trying to do on the MAC. I connect the M105 to
the Radio Shack serial to USB cable and hook it into
the USB port. On the Dell laptop, I can also connect
the M105 without the Serial/USB cable to the serial
port on the Dell. Either way it works.
So, if I understand correctly, you're saying I need
to buy the kit from Palm, or if I buy the Keyspan
cable, does it also come with a matching OS X
driver?
Doesn't the Palm 4.2.1 Version A Desktop that I
download for OS X come with the matching OS X
driver? When I do the download, it asks me for the
device and for the MAC OS.
Thanks again
I had presumed that you were indicating that you
intended to synchronize an m105, using its serial
interface, to a Macintosh. A serial to USB
converter
is required in that case, similar to those
suggested
above, because your m105 is a serial device and
your
Macintosh has no serial port.
The serial to USB converter is a kit, containing
both
a hardware adapter and a matching OS X driver.
Without both, your m105 cannot communicate with a
Macintosh through its USB port.
I have now successfully hot synced the Palm 105 under OS X 10.4.4. I purchased a Keyspan 19HS USB Serial Adapter. I tried the installation over the weekend, and it didn't work. I entered E-Mail on their web site to give details but didn't hear back from them. Today (Thurs. 2/9/06), I called their support telephone no. I nice tech support person guided me through downloading a beta version of their software, necessary for OS X10.4.4, and lo and behold, it all worked.
I'm giving these details in case someone else has this problem -- may save you some time.
Thank you to Michael Lafferty for his good advice.

Hot sync error message reading: "Unable to initiate hotsync operation because the port is in use by another application

Having HotSync error message on my M130 when I press hotsync button. USB cable at cradle and on computer are OK. Computer recognized Palm software, and device, and displays the hotsync symbol in the tray. I have trie all 4 USB connections on my Dell Inspiron running Windows XP home edition. NO LUCK! Hot Sync icon will come up, but when pressed on the cradle button or initiated from the M130 screen, the error messages reads as follows:
"Unable to initiate HotSync operation because the port is in use by another application." I have checked "My Computer", Control panel port assignments in the hardware section. No conflect noted. All ports open and operating. No port conflict or channel conflict issues. ?????
CAN YOU ASSIST? THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
Tom G.

On PC Sync settings set connection to cable then set to bluetooth. Problem fixed.
Spoiler (Highlight to read)

Windows Vista 755P hot sync - It works!!

Here is what I did to make it work with a USB Cable:
1. Remove palm software from computer if you have it installed
2. Remove outlook 2007 conduit updater
3. go to registry
Start>Run>regedit and do the following:
4. Current_User
5. under current user find software and remove the following:
             palm should be 2 folders (delete these)
6. under Current user then go to US Robotics folder and delete it (if you do not have a US robotics modem that is, if you do have a modem open the folder and delete only the Palm entries.)
7. go to palm website and go to support,
8. under support go to downloads
9. at the top of the pager on the right under more downloads download "palm desktop and hot sync manager" MB
10. get a new copy of outlook conduit updater while your there as well.
11. Install Palm desktop.
        When asked if you want to sync Palm desktop or outlook check the second one. Sync with Desktop and outlook
         do all the steps except do not SYNC at this time Make sure you hit Skip
12. after you complete the desktop manager install install Outlook conduit updater that you downloaded above.
13. hook up your 755 and hit the button to sync it.....
Please keep in mind that this works for me. Please make sure that you edit your regisrty with caution
All the Best,

I was having trouble trying to sync my 755 to my vista. I went to the website palm/vista...downloaded the software...tried to install the software on the cd (it should read: DO NOT INSTALL)...and my computer could not hotsync or find drivers... it kept recognizing it as a 680 but warned that it was not installed properly.
That post was the only thing that worked for me. thank you
Palm's little sticker on the software CD was totally unhelpful
I spent about a week on and off trying to get this thing to work.. Thanks alot for the post. I was able to sync my 755 to my new vista installed laptop flawlessly

Ever since I moved, I can't Hot Sync my VIIx

Hi,
I have a Palm VIIx which I use mostly as an address book. I went to use it after a while of inactivity during the time that I was moving. I found the batteries had died and when I replaced them and tried to Hot Sync again it would Sync. I think the last successful Sync was in January or so. It was maybe two months before I tried again, and I just thought the problem was the software on my USB Serial cable (I have a laptop so I had to buy a separate cable to link the Hot Sync port to my computer). I haven't been able to find my original software for the extra cable, but today my husband found a way to search and reload the cable software and the installation was supposedly successful. When I try to sync, however, I am still getting the following error message:
"The connection between your handheld computer and the desktop could not be established. Please check your setup and try again."
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks.

Vista 64-bit Hot Sync and Palm Desktop

Does anyone know when Hot Sync and Desktop will be available for 64-bit Vista?
Thanks, Bob.
Post relates to: Zire 21

At this time there is no ETA on any, if any, cabled solution for syncing palm os devices to Vista/XP 64 bit machines. There is a bluetooth solution that has been stickied to the top of the hotsync board, that is the best solution available at this time.

EOS 70D - nowhere to attach sync cable

Hi everyone, just hoping to get some direction re triggering studio lighting with my Canon 70D that's just arrived.
A long time photographer I am however just venturing into the world of studio lighting and have this month just set up a small home studio. With no formal training I'm learning as I go (thank goodness for youtube!) and tomorrow will be my third studio shoot so definitely lots to learn.
For my first couple of shoots I used my Canon 40D with a sync cable but my 40D died last week and I have just received the 70D which I have just found out does not have a plug for a sync cable.
I believe that I should be able to use my speed light to trigger my strobes but am a complete novice when it comes to such things and must say that I don't find the settings on the speedlights to be very intuitive.
I've read that another option is a hotshoe adapter that will allow me to plug my cable in to it. Perhaps there are even more options? If I can avoid having a speedlight attached I guess that would make my life easier, easier to move around, less weight etc.
My ultimate goal is to have only the strobes fire and not the speed light itself.
My lighting equipment is as follows:
1 Digiliter YJB-G300 (which can be used as a slave)
1 Bowens Prolite 41A (which I've only used as the master connected to my camera with a sync cable)
1 430EX Canon Speed light
1 550EX Canon Speed light
All suggestions gratefully accepted.

The good news is that you have lots of options, but that's probably the bad news too
The easiest answer is that yes, you can get an adapter that slides into the hotshoe and has a PC port if you want to go old school and use cables. It's simple enough and cheap enough, but there are much better options.
One option is to use a flash as a master flash to signal the others. The 550 can be used as a master, but your 70D's built in flash should be able to do the same. But you'll only be able to use the Canon speedlights using this function (unless your monos have an optical sensor, but you can buy these). You can also set it so that the flash fires to trigger the other flashes, but doesn't affect the exposure.
The option above is dependent on line of sight, which can become a nuissance if using modifiers. Using radio frequency triggers gets past this limitation, and is the standard method these days. If you're ok using manual only (the monos are only manual anyways) you can get really cheap triggers. Pocket Wizards are the gold standard, but expensive. Yongnuo is the 'gold standard' of generic options. I highly recommend the RF-603 II. They're about $30 for a pair, you'll need 5 total (one goes in the hot shoe as a trigger, the other 4 will trigger your 4 flashes).
There's a lot of good information out there, as you've found on YouTube. I highly, highly recommend going through the Strobist blog. It's geared towards using speedlights, but there's some discussion of studio lights, and much of the information is universal anyway:

Centro Repeated Attempts to Hot Sync then Died

I was running errands and heard a beep on the Centro. It told me that I could not connect for a Hot Sync (which I had not attempted) I said OK and the phone continued over and over to try to Hot Sync. I took out the battery twice to see if that would fix things. After the first battery out/in, the phone went back to repeated Hot Sync attempts. After the 2nd battery out/in, the phone died. HELP!
Post relates to: Centro (Verizon)

Hello VAViola and welcome to the Palm forums.
Your Centro is stuck in a HotSync loop. To get out of the loop, do the following:
1. Connect your HotSync cable to the Centro and allow it to sync to your Mac or PC to ensure that all of your data is synced to the compuer.
2. Hard reset the Centro. This will break the loop and erase everything on the Centro and return it to it's factory default settings.
3. HotSync the Centro with your computer to reload your data and applications.
Hope that helps,

When you try to sync does anything happen on the device or the PC?
Also what PC OS are you syncing to and the Palm Desktop version as well?

Windows Hot Sync

Had to replace my Zire 72 with Used unit which was working OK, and was able to hot sync both units. Did a master reset and get following message when attempting hot sync: "The connection between your handheld and the desktop could not be established. Please check your setup and try again." Replaced cable and used different usb port, checked conduit settings and selected correct user name (but couldn't find way to set user name on Palm unit). Palm DT has two entries, one each for data from old and new unit.
Need help
Post relates to: Zire 72
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Working now. I was experimenting with the export/import function and set up a "test" user name on the desktop. Exported contacts from file to desktop "test". After this Hot Synch worked with no problems. Isn't science wonderful??

Hot sync button turns off palm

I have a new Palm TX and when I push the button to perform a Hot Sync it turns the palm off, I've tried a soft and hard reset to no avail.
Post relates to: Palm TX

Try activating Hotsync by pressing the onscreen button instead of the one on the cable. If it works then most likly the cable is bad.
