Hotsync hangs on Calendar

Hotsync somehow lost the conduit to calendar (no option showing up under custom)... I've tried most of the things listed on the FAQs with no success...I'm not using Outlook at all, so none of the suggestions along those lines help.
I've re-installed the desktop software and the sync hangs on calendar. I've tried under a new user name with no success...
At this point, I'd do a hard reset except that my data aren't backed up. What I'd like to do at this point is to get BackupBuddy on to my device and back everything up that way.
Unfortunately, even when I set Calendar to "Take no action" it still hangs on "Synchronising Calendar"... is there any other way to get it to not try to sychronise this at all?

Mooseo,
Ok, here are the instructions for the "clean" uninstall.
You should first make a copy of your data to have just in case something
happens. You can find your data files by going to C:\Program Files\Palm or
Palm One. Highlight your Palm Desktop username and right click and copy.
Then go to your PC desktop, right click on a blank spot and select paste.
Now you want to uninstall Palm Desktop and remove everything that has to do
with Palm Desktop from your computer. Like the above folder, delete the Palm folder. Once this is done, you will need to delete some registry keys
from your PC Operating System registry.
Word of warning, going here and deleting the wrong thing can cause your PC
to not start up, crashing and deletion of programs and data. If you feel
you are unsure of yourself, see if you have a friend that can help you or a
PC technician that you can pay to help you. This will show them everything
they need to delete. To retain your current Registry settings, we need to do a backup of the Registry.
On the PC, go to start and run type "regedit" without quotes
Highlight MY COMPUTER, go to File --> export. Should pop up with a Save As
box. Current location is fine should be in My Documents or you can change to a location you will remember. In the file name box, type "Regbackup[todaysdate]" i.e. Regbackup07072008. Next, the hard part.
The easiest way to make sure your working with the correct key, highlight the key i.e. palm quick install, and press delete on your keyboard. It will ask you, are
you sure. Say yes. Do the same thing for all keys below.
If you make a mistake, stop what you are doing. And call a PC technician.
BUT do not turn off your computer.
The reg keys are as follows (Note: some of theses reg keys will not be here
but if they are delete them)
* HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\U.S. Robotics\Palm Quick Install
* HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\U.S. Robotics\PalmOne File Transfer
* HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\U.S. Robotics\Pilot Desktop
* HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Palm
* HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Palm, Inc.
* HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\PalmDesktopAutorun
* HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\palmOne
* HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\PalmSource
* HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\PalmSource or anything else that says palm
Next reboot your computer
Then reinstall your Palm desktop from the CD and do a hotsync. If it asks
you for a username and you synced your device before, put in 'test" if you
did not sync before you create a hotsync name.

Hotsync hanging in calendar

I recently upgraded from a Tungsten E2 to a Centro and am having Hotsync issues.
I have installed the software that came with the centro and was able to Hotsync once. The next time, it hung in the calendar and remained so after 30+ minutes when I finally cancelled it. I tried again and had to take the battery out to get it to return to normal phone functions.
I downloaded the software off the internet and reinstalled it. Again - works once, then hangs on all futher attemps. Often hanging so badly I need to pop out the battery.
I'm getting no error messages, it just hangs. Help!
Thanks!
Post relates to: Centro (Verizon)

I think it's working! Thanks!
I did the hard reboot. At first it didn't want to sync, so I reinstalled the program again, and it now seems to be working properly. I've synced 3 or 4 times successfully.
I've reinstalled one app - WeekView, but haven't yet reinstalled my only other app - SplashID.
I'm using Palm Desktop by Access on a windows XP machine

HotSync Hangs Up

I recently dropped my Centro and it hit kind of hard on the handle of a metal safe that we have.
Later in the day tried to do an install (with HotSync) on a new pc. The HotSync hangs up trying to sync the "Calendar". It basically just freezes there and the installation has to be canceled when (after a long period of time) a window pops up that says "MEM_BAD_POINTER".
Would anyone have an idea what to do with this? Is my Centro broken and can it be taken somewhere to be fixed?
Any help is desperately appreciated.

Hello stellarplacebo, anything we could suggest would be mere speculation. It could be a direct hit caused a Hardware glitch/failure, or it's just a coincidence!
Standard suggestions apply - Soft Reset then test, Hard Reset then test before HotSync. If it all works after a Hard Reset, it's software-related. If not, it sounds like hardware.
Repairs can be found from Palm ($$$) or several websites ($) like usedpdaparts.com or directfix.com.

Outlook 2007 hangs when Calendar tab is clicked

I am using Windows Vista on a Sony Notebook with Outlook 2007 SP1 connected to exchange server 2003. I had a problem that my outlook worked fine except for one thing: it hanged whenever I clicked on the calendar tab. I then had to restart my outlook, there was no other way out of the problem.
Investigating the problem it occurred that when I clicked on individual dates on the calendar displayed on the front screen, the calendar did display EXCEPT when TODAY was selected. Any other date worked fine except the current date. This was true for any date, in such a manner that today would freeze up, but on the next day the same date (which was then yesterday) did not hang anymore.
After a long while I accidentally found the solution to this problem. You will notice when the calendar is displayed in the default calendar view (month/week/day with preview), at the bottom of the screen there is also a part where today's tasks are displayed. I edited the view and removed the display of tasks in the calendar screen, and suddenly the calendar did not hang anymore. It appeared that some item amongst the tasks caused the crash, but when the tasks are displayed in the task tab, Outlook does not hang.
So, if your Outlook 2007 hangs whenever you click on the calendar tab, edit your calendar view and disable the display of the task/todo list in the calendar view. This might solve your problem like it did for me.

If I could only get to the Calendar tab to check the settings again I would. But Outlook is hanging CONSTANTLY. I haven't been able to exit the application normally in more than 10 days - it's always via Task Manager after an application hang. This happened all the sudden - literally - in the last 10 days. I haven't changed anything but I do have automatic updates - wondering if there's something in one of the latest that is causing this? here's the text I pulled from the details:

I'm also having this same problem after trying everything in this thread! Am also using Windows 7 RC 64-Bit and Office 2007 SP1. Problem only started happening about 5 days ago, and it is driving me insane! I've done everything suggested and the problem remains - even after reinstalling the OS!
Please fix your broken software, Microsoft. I'm seriously considering moving to Thunderbird or something - anything - that works.

Sync hangs on "calendar" sync since I updated to Mountain Lion yesterday

I finally updated my Macbook air from Lion to Mountain Lion yesterday. During the update, I got a kernel panic message, and had to install ML using the full update process. All works fine .. apparently but today I tried to sync my Iphone 4 using ITunes ver. 10.6.3 (25) and despite the Iphone is recognised, the sync process hangs on step 2 : calendar sync ..
Any idea ?
Thanks
Yves

Adding info : after disabling the auto-sync, I was able to disable the calendar sync on this Iphone. Then the process for contacts, musics, movies, apps runs well.
Enabling the calendar sync again, it hangs .. again.
btw, I'm not using icloud but local sync.

Installation hangs at 'Calendar Server Configuration Assistant'

Hi,
I'm installing the OCS Release 2 Middle Tier component on a Red Hat Linux AS2.1 server. The 9iAS Infrastructure is also on this server while the Information Store is located on a separate Linux server.
The installation of the Middle Tier is hanging at the 'Calendar Group Configuration Assistant' - the last entry in the installation log is as follows:
===*** Start of install log snippet ***===
Configuration assistant "Calendar Group Configuration Assistant" succeeded
Result code for launching of configuration assistant is: 0

This has happened twice now! Does anyone have any clues as to how to get beyond this point in the installation?
Many thanks,

Hey I got this, are a few bugs around this, one you unix username and group name have to be under 8 characters, secondly if your host name of you LDAP server is over 24 Character long it wont like it. If u edit your unison.ini and put in the IP address instead of the host name under the [LDAP] section. Oh and remember to set LD_LIBRARY_PATHS before running unistart and include the $ORACLE_HOME/ocal/bin as well.

ITunes sync hangs on Calendars

There are so many threads and discussions on this and similar that i decided to try and start fresh and provide users out there with a detailed description of my issues and how I finally resolved it. Some of my paths to resolution may have been unnecessary.
I suspect if I had simply upgraded my iPhones IOS from the get go I MOST likely would have fixed the issue then and there!!!
Suggest you read this first - then make your own call!!
Systems:
Mac Air:
- Mountain Lion v10.8.2
- MS Outlook for Mac 2011 v14.2.4 (using IMAP for several gmail a/c's and others)
- iTunes v10.7
- iCal v6.0 (1645)
N.B.: before upgrading to Outlook 2011 I experienced many bad experiences with corrupt Entourage d'bases. Net result was I set up Mac Mail to run as a background process (same IMAP connections etc) - this paranoid approach continued even after upgrading to Outlook 2011. Result - complete confidence that I have a full set of all my mail history should MS die an ugly death again!!!
iPhone 3GS
- previously running IOS v5.??
- now running IOS v6!! more on that later!!
History:
After a recent OSX upgrade and a MS update (both coincided within a few days if i recall correctly) when syncing my iPhone (running IOS v5.??) iTunes sync started to hang at Step 3: calendars.
I followed all manner of suggestions from this community and others to no avail.
So this is what I did:
Ensured Mac Mail was complete and up to date as well as backed up to Time Machine AND I generated archive copies just in case!!!
Followed the steps to completely remove MS Office.
Reinstalled MS Office from scratch.
{side note: got to last stage of install and had a really hard time completing because syncservicesagent would not die!!!! This support article resolved that and enabled me to move on ...
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1627
"In the Terminal window, type or paste the following command on a single line:
/System/Library/Frameworks/SyncServices.framework/Versions/A/Resources/resetsync.pl full
... close side note}
Here I made an error. I set up Outlook again whereas I should have thoroughly tested iPhone syncing via iTunes to iCal without Outlook in the mix.
Reset mail and calendar settings in Outlook - got it syncing with iCal again.
Plugged in iPhone - iTunes sync still hangs!!!!!!
Kick some stuff - generally vent some annoyance.
Hit iPhone software restore in iTunes and go through the process of restoring the iPhone which actually upgrades you to IOS v6 (which I wasn't ready to do but so far so good).
iTunes sync no longer hangs!!
Tested all permutations of meetings ...
from iPhone - turns up in Outlook
from Outlook - turns up on iPhone
from iCal - turns up in both
Only remaining weirdness is that whilst the iPhone and Outlook seem to be talking just fine - meetings generated in Outlook or on iPhone don't show up in iCal yet I thought iCal was the conduit!! My suspicion is it is something to do with iCal Calendars and Outlooks Categories not being compatible. Anyway's net result meetings sync between iPhone and Outlook.

Yes, I'm running ESET NOD32. I've disabled NOD temporarily but it still hangs on Calanders when syncing! Any ideas?
Many thanks. There's a couple of alternatives.
Either try the procedure in Samoreen's post:
Re: iTunes 11.1.4.62 freezes while syncing with Outlook
Or, see if you can get hold of the Eset beta addressing the problem. As Samoreen notes in another post:
ESET have a workaround for this issue. They gave me access to a test version of the HIPS module and this fixed the problem. So I could re-enable the ESET_OPTIONS environment variable (although I still consider that it's a questionable idea). I upgraded to iTunes 11.1.5.5 and there was no problem.
So maybe you should get in touch with ESET support and request the new module ? Just send a message to Marcos in the ESET forum.

I was having the same problem and my IT guy just had me do this, seemed to work. I don't use Calendar Service, if you do it may make it more complicated, but at least it will could be running.
Rename this:
/Library/Server/Calendar and Contacts/Config/
to this
/Library/Server/Calendar and Contacts/Config.bak
and this
/Library/Server/Calendar and Contacts/Data
to this
/Library/Server/Calendar and Contacts/Data.bak
Do whatever you have to do to restart.

Server install hangs at calendar services

I performed a fresh install of OSX Server following issues with upgrading to version 4.0.3. Even with a fresh install, the server hangs on "Preparing Calendar Services," and won't move beyond it. Any ideas?

Hi
You may find following the steps outlined in the 'answer' on this thread helps fix your problem. The step (to kill one process running during the install sequence) is a lot less invasive than doing clean builds and so on.
Hope it helps.

When trying to sync i phone w mac book sync hangs on calendar

When I try to sync my I phone 4 s with my Macbbok pre the sync process hangs up when trying to complete step 3, i.e. the calendar. I recently upgraded to Mounain Lion. Help would be appreciated

Thanks for you suggestion roaminggnome. I tried typing in 13019 like you said and it gave me a few options to try and fix it but none of them worked (of course). I fiddled around with it for a while some more on my own and some how got it to work again, lol. Thanks again though for offering a solution.

Hotsync Produces 3 Calendars

While trying to iSync my datebook with iCal, I think I did something wrong because I now have three different calendars. My desktop datebook is the one I work with. The conduit setting only has Backup, Install, iSync, Media, Memo, Memo Pad, Note Pad & Voice Memo. I no longer have the Datebook or Address/Contact or whatever I had before so I cannot change any settings. I cannot get my desktop datebook to hotsync my handheld & my iCal has most of what is on the handheld. How can I correct this? Is there any way I can add Datebook or Address/Contact to my Conduit Settings?

Ipad sync hangs on calendar

when I sync my iPad (gen 3) with my mac, using iTunes, the synchronization process hangs when it reaches calendar

I have the same exact problem with all the same specifications (pc, Outlook 03, iTunes ver.8.1.0.51). Did "Laith61" ever get his problem resolved?? BTW, this started for me coincidently after loading and joining mobileme... I have since removed it from my pc and iphone, but the calendar freeze problem still remains. Yes, I've rebooted... synced w/o syncing to calendar then trying to resync w/the calendar. It still hangs...

Sync hangs on Calendar

Ever since I upgraded the iPhone software to 2.2.1, sync with Outlook 2003 hangs on the Calendar sync.
All the other syncs work fine and it does actually sync the calendar but then iTunes just stays on "syncing calendars with..." (and the iPhone: "Sync in Progress") and I have to manually cancel the sync.
I have the latest version of iTunes (8.1.0.51)
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks,
Laith

Hotsync hangs up at media

I'm using Windows 7 64 bit and Bluetooth toSync. The sync goes well until No. 10 - Media and it just hangs up. It does not go any further and complete. All the pictures show up in the media section of Palm Desktop however.
Any suggestions???
Post relates to: Treo 650 (Unlocked GSM)

Ok, click on the icon (if it is not present go to Start Button/All programs/Palm/HotSync Manager to start it) then choose "Settings".
In the left column of the screen that opens, choose "Applications".
Check off the little box that says "Show Details". Now you can see how each conduit is set.
To change one of them, Highlight the conduit (in your case, "Media" ) then the "Configure button will come alive. Click it, and change the setting. (I have my Media conduit turned off - "Do Nothing" ). To make the change permanent for each upcoming Hotsync, check the box that says "Set As Default" - otherwise the change will happen only once, then revert back.

Hotsync hangs up on memo

Newbie here to forum but have used palm os in the past.
Got a new Centro - Verizon
I've been syncing and it's worked.
Tonight it gets hung up on memo 8 of 12 and won't move from there. Tried canceling and rebooting computer and smartphone.
I went in and disabled memo (do nothing) and the whole cycle went through. So obviously the memo is what's hanging it up.
Here's the thing. I read that I should see if there are any corrupt memos....well my memos are empty. I haven't added anything yet.
Now when I reable memo it is hanging up again. any thoughts?
Post relates to: Centro (Verizon)

If Hotsync is detecting 12 memos, there are 12 memos either on your Centro or on your desktop.
Where are they NOT appearing? Centro or Computer?
I have not used the Access Desktop so I do not know if it has a repair function in Tools. If the memos are on your computer and this feature exists, try it.
Alternatively, if the memos are on your computer, open one, copy it to Notepad, and delete it from Palm Desktop. Then create a new memo and paste from Notepad. Repeat.
If the memos are on your Centro, suggest you take a look at DBFixIt from pimlicosoftware.com.
I would not go about changing sync overwrites until you are absolutely clear which device (computer or Centro) the memos are on; I would not want you to inadvertently lose them.
