How can I learn how to sync my zire 72 and my mac os 10.4? None of my mac utilities or itunes recognize my palm or its memory card. My palm has many old phone numbers, etc., but is fast becoming a paper weight.

your palm won't appear in finder, since the filesystems on it aren't directly readable by mac osx. http://www.download.com/mobile/3150-20_4-0.html?tag=ltcol;narrow has much palm software on it - you'll probably be able to find something on there that will read any files you want. You will find when you've downloaded a file from it you'll get .prc and .pdb files that should sync to your palm.
If no data is being copied across, check in hotsync manager that your conduit settings tell your mac to copy files across. A conduit being a program's files on your palm eg. 'addresses' is the conduit that syncs all your contact info. To do this, open hotsync manager in the palm folder, and from the 'hotsync' menu at the top, choose 'conduit settings'. It will then give you a list of all the conduits that can be synced with your palm. The right-hand most column tells you what the hotsync is trying to do ie. handheld overwrites macintosh' or 'synchronise' etc. To change this, select the conduit and click the settings button in the top right side of the window.
I can't recommend any specific tutorial, but whatever you heard about mac and palm being a good fit is sadly dated information. Palm, it appears, are slowly dropping support for the macintosh platform - they haven't updated the macintosh hotsync software for about five years now, and the software is only directly compatible with PPC macs, ie the ones before apple switched to using intel chips. This means that it runs really slow on intel machines due to having to convert everything before it runs. It is a great pity, since ten years ago there was no more natural pairing than a mac and a palm...

How can I make my Outlook sync with ical and address book on more than one mac?

It currently syncs with my iMac through 'this computer' folder, but i dont have outlook on my macbook, so basically... how can i make my outlook automatically convert/sync to icloud enabled folders?
Not too confusing i hope.

Outlook won't work with iCloud. On your Mac.

How can I get back to syncing my Ipad, and Iphone 4 the old fashion way

I have installed upgraded itunes, upgraded my Iphone operation system to 5.1, and installed Icloud. This is where the problems all began.
Icloud and I have everything (contacts, calendar events, photos) so messed up, it would take a Apple Surgeon to fix it all. Is there a way to start over and go back to syncing my ipad, and iphone with itunes....it was sooooo easy and all units were the same.
If I connect today, USB to computer and itunes, it will sync however add duplicates everywhere? I just wanna go home ! Removing Icloud from all three devices, Computer, Ipad 2, and Iphone 4

Pictures are not stored in iTunes.
Any pictures taken with the device, like with any other digital camera, are designd to be copied off the device to the computer on a regular basis. Via iTunes, pictures that the user chooses to have on the device can be synced back.
As Ralph stated, updating iTunes will not affect the media in the library. That being said, it has always been very basic to maintain a backup of important files. If you do not currently have a backup of your important files, I would strongly encourage you to make one.

How can I backup my files on an iPhone and iPad? I have a PC, not a MAC computer.

I would like to backup the files on my iPhone and iPad. I usually back them up on a regular PC and external hard drive (a WD My Passport). I do not have a MAC computer.

iOS devices like the iPhone and iPad back up to iTunes on your PC, or to iCloud.
See this Apple document for more information about iOS backups:
Back up and restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch using iCloud or iTunes - Apple Support

My ipad is syncing notes to an old phone with a different apple id how can I change it to sync to the new iphone icloud is off and so is home sharing

Apps and Music are not from iCloud. Are from iTunes and App Store.
You can change this from: Settings>iTunes and App Stores>Sign out and sign in with new ID, but you will have to pay again to download apps that you already have in your old account. Or leave it as it is to share purchases with your son.

I will address your second question.
First, make sure your iPhone and iPad have absolutely identical Apple IDs. If they do, use that Apple ID in Settings > iCloud on your iPhone to select the "Notes" option. Lo and behold, all your iCloud notes should appear on your iPhone.

I have two iPhones. I just backed up all my photos on my old phone using iCloud but when I log into iCloud on my new iPhone nothing appears? The GB for the photos has been taken from my iCloud allowance so how do I retreive them on the new phone

if you have a laptop just transfer them that way
open the iPhone folder then DCIM then copy all photos off your old phone then open iPhone folder for the new phone the DCIM and paste all photos in their

Hi. I want to sell my phone how can i prevent anyone from recovering my photos and vids??

Hi. I want to sell my iphone but I don't want the buyer or anyone to recover my pics and vids and everything isthis possible? How can i abandon the phone? And how can I prevent the buyer recovering my pics and vids and data?? Thanks

Two different things -
The phone is different than your Apple ID
Ergo - if you turn off Find my iPhone and restore as new from iTunes to where there is the Hello screen - it essentially has cleaned out your information - can some one still get information from files on the hard drive - probably but the expense to get that (not knowing what you have on there) versus benefit - would deter most people. AND it would mean taking the phone apart - I would not worry too much about that.
I would not delete the Apple ID - you can use that to sync your next phone with the backup

How Can I Learn To Develop Flash Games For Under $50.00 USD?

I am completely new to anything Flash. I have never written a
single line of Actionscript. I don't know the difference between
Flash and Flex. I don't know in what forums Flash developers hang
out. I don't even know what kind of coffee they drink, or if they
drink tea instead.
However, I have developed games and have been thinking about
developing some casual games and have heard rumors that Adobe is
"pushing" causal game development with Actionscript 3 and their
latest releases. So I went to adobe.com expecting to see a link for
something like "learn how to develop games in flash" or some such.
I poked around the developer related pages and didn't find anything
I thought useful.
What I did find were plenty of stuff for *existing* flash
developers. Links to articles and HowTos for specific topics and
information about products that cost a minimum of several hundred
dollars. I can't learn how to develop games and create a prototype
with a 30-day trial, and I am not going to buy a $1000 pro-grade
tool when I am an indie developer without a budget or a pre-funded
project that would justify such expenditures.
I have seen some open source stuff, but don't know if it can
do anything more than build some annoying shaking banner ads.
So let me introduce myself as a possible use-case for Adobe
Marketing and the Flash (Game) Developer community.
I am an educated experience software developer who has a day
job doing "enterprise" software stuff. I want to *play* in my free
time (evenings and weekends) with "Flash Stuff" and learn enough to
be able to build a simple game that I can put on my personal
website and have my friends download. I am not a student, so I
can't get student discounts. The money I have goes toward
toys^H^H^H^H tools for my other coding habits^H^H^H^H^H projects. I
am not interested in 30-day trials, as I may go 45-days or more
between the first and second weekends I get to play with this. I
know OOP so I want to start out learning how to do the "advanced"
stuff from day one and not have to start with dragging and dropping
PNGs w/o any coding and then "relearn" how to do it in code so I
can do anything beyond having the image appear and rotate.
I *am* willing to put time into this endeavor, but only after
I have a few things spoon-fed to me by "advocates" who's job is to
get me "hooked" and willing to invest my time to go beyond Hello
World. At the same time I am download and playing with GarageGames,
TGE/TGB, Game Maker, Dark Basic, Blitz Basic, etc. and many
complete development environments that are full-featured and
completely free if I limit myself to releasing only freeware games,
or cost me less than $50 for the "professional" version with all
the bells and whistles.
I have heard rumors and rumblings about some open source
tools being available and Adobe maybe open sourcing some of their
previously pay-to-play tools, but also understand that Adobe can
probably provide a better "comprehensive" package of tools,
documentation, tutorials, and support, *if I can find the right
place to ask/start.*
And, most of all, I don't know where to start my search as I
have no personal contacts to bug about stuff like this.
So, where can I find the big red button to push and get
everything I want handed to me on a silver-platter.
[please understand I have written this with some attempt at
self-mocking humor and am not some clueless n00b]
Thank you for taking the time to read my lengthy posting. I
hope to find some helpful replies and start down an interesting
learning path.

Just saw your post. Better late than never. You may want to
consider GameBrix.com, where you can create Flash based, casual
games using your web browser. No downloads are required. You can
create a game from scratch using a library of images, sounds and
game mechanics. You can also upload your own. The online script
editor will allow you to view and edit the ActionScripts associated
with each game mechanic. In short, a great way to ramp up on game
design and build your own game without investing a lot of $
upfront.
BTW I am associated with GameBrix so any feedback is
appreciated.

When printing a list in Address Book, how can I select more than the default Attributes and keep them selected when I print again? I want to print ALL information for contacts so I have email address, notes, phone, company, title, etc all on one page.

When printing a list in Address Book, how can I select more than the default Attributes and keep them selected when I print again? I want to print ALL information for contacts so I have email address, notes, phone, company, title, etc all on one page. I don't want to have to check off an additional 5 or 6 attributes each time I print out contact information. Is there a way to change the default setting for printing lists, so it is not just "phone," "photo," and "job title?"

I have a user who wants to do this same thing. I did not find any way either to default the attributes to anything other than what you see the first time. Seems like such a trivial thing, hard to believe they do not allow it. I did find a program for this called iDress but I can't seem to download it from any links on the Internet. Not sure if it is free or not, but it was recommended by a link on the Mac support site.

How can i keep my music from my iPhone and sync it my new macbook? Only purchased music seems to be available to sync, even though the rest of the music was uploaded from CD's on my last laptop.

Hi, I have changed from an old laptop to a macbook air. how can i keep my music from my iPhone and sync it my macbook? Only purchased music seems to be available to sync, even though the rest of the music was uploaded from CD's on my last laptop.
As I can't upload CD's onto the Macbook Air, how do I keep the existing music on my iphone syn onto my new macbook without deleting all the cds on the iphone??
Many thanks!

Hi RaulRod,
Are you pressing the Sync button to transfer music after connecting your iPhone or do you have the option checked to 'Automatically Sync when the iPhone is connected?'
Have you tried manually dragging and dropping music from your library into your phone?

How can I learn where a missing class resides?

I'm going thru a tutorial that autogenerates a few small Java source files in a small project. They SHOULD compile without error, but don't, apparently because various classes are referenced and are not present on my PC.
How can I learn where they are? How can I get the needed classes, and can I trust the files I find, assuming I find them out on the web somewhere.
The message of the moment (produced by NetBeans 4.1) is:
"class com.sun.xml.rpc.tools.ant.Wscompile cannot be found"
I plugged that classname into Google, and found someone wonder in a forum where this class is, then reply to his own question saying he found it in jaxrpc-impl.jar
Maybe that's right. Now I have to find this Jar file.
Hopefully there's a better way to find this stuff!
Any advice appreciated.

That's how you do it.
In this case, I believe that the jar is part of the JAX_RPC functionality (recently renamed to JAX_WS), and a copy is included with Sun's Application Server - and also other downloadable packages, but I don't know exactly which others.
The class is part of the umbrella J2EE system.
