Hot Sync freezes

Tungsten E2: 
I had been using Palm Desktop v 4.1.4 for a number of years on Desktop with XP home OS.  Hard drive crashed and I bought a new laptop running Vista.  Then I had old hard drive repaired and XP re-installed.  Palm download center recommends Desktop v 6.2.2 for both XP home and Vista.  I downloaded it to both machines.  When I try to hot sync my E2 with either machine it freezes at the same spot.  I can see that my data is there on both machines.  Should I try to re-install v 6.2.2 or will that wipe out my data.

There may be database corruption causing the issue. Click on the following link for the program called DbFixiT. This program has a trial version that you can download and install on your Palm OS device. The trial version will scan for database corruption and then report the corruption. You can then find the records causing the problem and fix them yourself or you can purchase the program and have it automatically fix the records.
http://www.pimlicosoftware.com/dbfixit.htm
To install the program, set all conduits to "do nothing" except quick install or install if using Palm desktop 6.2.
After you install the program on the handheld, run the scan and also scan for Blobs in the calendar.
After you clean-up the database on the handheld, set the conduits in hotsync to handheld overwrites desktop and perform a hotsync.
For reference purposes, click on the following link for the support page for your device on the kb.palm.com webpage.

  • Hot sync freeze

    its done this before, & im still unsure about how it happened in the first place.
    it freezes on the hotsync, and it keeps saying that "the connection between you handheld and the desktop could not be established. Please check your set up and try again" the only issue though is that it freezes in this area and, its connected to the desktop at all.

    Do you see the hot sync icon (circle with red and blue arrows) on the bottom right of your computer screen? Is there an arrow with the option to "show hidden icons"? If you do not see it there, hot sync will be disabled and you will keep getting that message (the connection between your device and the desktop could not be established...).
    To enable the hot sync program once again, click on Start > Programs/All Programs > Palm OS Desktop/Palm One > Hot Sync Manager. It will take about 5-10 seconds and the icon will be there once again.
    Now the sync should go through.

    Hi..  Welcome to the Palm forums.  So if I am understanding you when you try to sync it goes to calendar and freezes and never completes the sync.  That being the case the first thing you want to do is go to the conduits and turn off calendar then sync and all should be successful, except calendar will not sync.  What this indicates is that you have corrupted data in your calendar, most likely on the E2.  Do a google search on your computer for a utility 'dbfixit' and download it to your computer.  Extract it so you have the dbfixit.prc file and double click on it to put it in the installer.  Then, insuring the calendar conduit is off, sync to install it.  Once installed run dbfixit.  This utility is free or can be purchased for (I believe) 12.95.  The free version will search for corruption and problems let you know where they are and you will have to manually fix or delete them.  If you register it, when you run the utility it will find the errors and fix them as well.  Once all errors are fixed, turn the calendar conduit back on and you should be able to sync.

  • Downloaded new iOS for iPhone 5. Now the handset is running hot, keeps freezing on different screens, won't charge on official charger ( only charges on crap poundland one) and battery is loosing 1% every two minutes!

    Downloaded new iOS for iPhone 5. Now the handset is running hot, keeps freezing on different screens, won't charge on official charger ( only charges on crap poundland one) and battery is loosing 1% every two minutes! I've closed all apps and reset the complete phone but no luck. Any one know what else I can try apart from a new phone?

    I have done a factory reset at 45% battery. After the reset it's still hot and at 35% now

  • 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!

    Post relates to: Palm m500

    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. 

  • Palm m125 stylus won't work after hot sync

    Yesterday I dropped my m125 and the batteries fell out. I didn't notice right away and the system did a hard reset.
    When I put the m125 in the cradle and did a hot sync, it updated everything and then I got a message I needed to reset the palm. When I clicked on the reset button, I went directly to a screen that says Preferences on the LHS and Date and Time on the RHS. My stylus no longer works properly at this point. When I touch the home icon, it does not register. If I try to navigate anywhere using the stylus, it registers that I am touching somewhere else on the screen. There is no way I can get to the home screen so I can go through the welcome and calibrate the stylus.
    I uninstalled the palm desktop software, restarted the machine and reinstalled the software. Same exact problem. I installed the DigiFix free software, hot synced to add the program and ... same exact problem.
    IF I take the batteries out for a hard reset, then the palm is working exactly correctly.
    But I can't get any of my information back unless I hot sync, which renders the palm useless again.
    IF I could download the keyboard software, I could hypothetically manually add all the lost info a little bit faster than using the touch screen. But I can't find the software and I will be vulnerable to losing everything again if I can't hot sync the stuff back onto my computer.
    One other thing I don't know if it is relevant, even after I uninstalled, restarted and reinstalled the palm desktop software, all of my original data was still available. Shouldn't it be gone if I had removed the entire program? Does it matter?
    Post relates to: Palm m125

    After the hard reset; are you able to align your screen? If I am following you correctly you are saying this is the case, and only after the sync the digitizer will no longer align.
    If this is the case you may have corrupted data in you Palm Desktop. First I would rename the backup folder under your original user name and sync again to see if this will resolve the issue. If not then you can create a new user name in your Palm DT, then hard reset the device again, then choose to sync to the new user name you created instead of the original user name. Then you could export your original data to a (original user name) file, and then import the data under the new user name to restore your data.
    When you delete the Plam DT application it does not remove the data file. When you
    re-install the Palm DT software it will re-associate to the original data. This is why the data came back.

  • Palm Centro - Vista - Hot Sync Problem

    Hello:  I have a Palm Centro (Verizon) and am having major issues hot synching to my new Windows Vista (32 bit) home PC.  I continually get the following error message:

  • Zire 71 Hot Sync

    Help!!!
    My old computer died, and I have a new PC with Windows 7 and 64-bit architecture.
    I have installed the Palm OS and copied my data files over to the new PC, and I can run the Palm program on the new PC.
    Howerer.........the Hot Sync feature will not work, and I am guessing it must be the move from 32-bit to 64-bit, but I have no idea how to resolve this issue.

  • Hot sync Palm m500

    I have a couple of old, but ever so useful, Palm m500/m505  PDAs,  which I could hot-sync with my old PC running on Windows XP.  Now I have up-graded to PC with Windows 7 Home Version - 32 bit and am at my wit's end trying to hot sync my PDA data on to my PC Palm Desktop. 
    As I am of the older generation, (a senior citizen), could an expert give me step-by-step instructions on how to resolve my problem.  My Palm m500 PDA has too many contacts to manually transfer.
    Also can I convert PDA contacts to Outlook Address Book and then hot-sync with Palm m500 series PDA ?
    Waiting anxiously for help and guidance ..........

    Hello myrarego,

  • Hot synced Zire 71 with Windows Vista

    I have a Zire 71 and I just bought a Toshiba laptop with Vista 32bit.  I was able to hot-sync the Zire successfully and the files loaded onto the laptop.  But when I looked at the Palm desktop, there was nothing whatsoever.  No data whatsoever.  Nothing.  Obviously the problem is with Vista. 
    What can I do to get my files to appear on the Palm Desktop? Is it possibly related to the file extensions having a problem with Vista, or is there an add-on to fix this?
    HELP!!!!!!!!
    Many thanks in advance!

  • 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?

  • Need help with hot sync

    My palm Zire 72 lost all battery power, and all infor on it went away. I did a hot sync with my 
    computer a few days ago. When I sync with my palm it usually takes from palm to computer,
    now I need everything from the computer to the palm. How do I do that? I don't want to loose my info.

    Right click on the hotsync icon in your task bar and select custom. Then highlight each conduit select change and set to desktop overwrites handheld.

  • 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.

  • Cannot find Hot Sync Log File

    I recently installed Palm dsktop on my new Vista PC. It synchs very well with my TX via bluetooth, BUT whenever there is a Hot Sync Log Message I get an error message saying that the PC cannot find the Hot Sync Log.  I searched for this file on my PC but it cannot be found anywhere. I am using Mozilla Firefox as my web browser.  Is there a solution to this?
    Post relates to: Palm TX

    You could view it on your device. Go to HOTSYNC and tap "Log".
