How do I extract calendar files?

Thank you for reviewing this post.  I appreciate any help you are willing to provide.
I recently bought a new win 7 machine.  My tech copied all my old data from the previous machine to a single folder on my new machine. 
I have some Palm data .... But it did not import and the TX model will not install on my Win 7 machine, so I have to get this done through Palm Desktop.  (I read that might be caused by the fact I went to version 6 of palm software and tried to import).
Quite simply here is my issue:  I really just want to get my calendar information.  I am probably going to use a different calendar program in the near future.
How can I extract the calendar data from the raw files?  (Calendar.dat, etc)????
MUST I import or somehow go through Palm Software, or can this be done outside of the Palm framework?
I just FEEL that this cannot be anything too difficult, but I am so stuck and missing appointments daily.
I am very grateful for your help.

With the version of the data files you have, you will need to install Palm Desktop 4.2 or 4.1.4e. You will need to uninstall Palm Desktop 6.2, if that is what you have installed currently. The files with the extension of .dat are not compatible with PD 6.2.
Another thing to consider is the version of Win7 you have installed. If you have 64 bit version, you will only be able to sync wirelessly using bluetooth, Infrared or wi-fi. On your PC go to the computer icon and right click. Look on the page and see if it states 64bit anywhere. If you have the 32bit version, you can sync via the USB cable method but you need to make sure you have the correct version of PD installed. 
To put the .dat files into PD, you will need to go to the username folder on the program drive and paste the files into the correct subfolder. Make sure PD is closed. Go to c-program files-palm and look for the PD user folder. Once you locate the folder, look for subfolders in that folder for address (this is the folder for contacts), datebook (calendar), memos and tasks. Paste the address.xxx files into the address folder, the datebook.xxx files into the datebook folder, etc. Once the files are in the respective locations, open PD and see if the data is there. If it is, you can then setup the sync according to your Win7 version, either wireless or USB.

  • How can I extract a file name / path from a local path variable in TestStand?

    I have local TestStand string variable, call it 'locals.path', that contains a path to a file including the file name (c:\inputs\input.txt). I need to be able to split up the path (c:\input) and the file name (input.txt) and save them into 2 local variables. What is the best way to do this?
    After reading through some of the other forums, it looks like there are some built-in functions that can accomplish this, but I am unable to find how to use them anywhere on the NI web site. One forum said to use the File I/O>Strip Path.file function. How is this called? Is this function in a DLL?
    I know that there are a number of DLLs that are installed with TestStand into the c:\windows\system32 directory. One forum made note of CVI_OpenFile / CVI_ReadFIle functions in the cvirt.dll that I used to solve a problem that I had in the past. The problem is that I had no idea that that these functions even existed and would have never known unless a similar question had been posted previously. Is there some place that these DLL function interfaces are defined or documented? Is there a function that can extract the file name out of a string for me?
    Thanks,
    Mike

    Hi,
    There sound like functions in say LabVIEW or CVI.
    I have attached a small example which may help. (I have not allowed for any error trapping, if say you dont find the file and cancel)

  • How can I extract .rar files?

    I have UnRARX but that doesnt work on the ones I need extracted. I had to use a windows computer to extract the files, but what program for mac will get the job done?

    Stuffit Deluxe was the archive program of choice since System 7 until about MacOS 10.3 - it's not free and not as important as it once was.
    The free Stuffit Expander still does great work for many types of archives. Stuffit Expander 13.0.3 -
    http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/10151590
    You can put an alias of the program on your desktop or the Dock. Drag your file onto it and let it go...
    Their description:
    Easily expand and decode all the files you download from the Web or receive in your e-mail. Access StuffIt files, uncompress Zip archives created by WinZip and other zip utilities, decompress tar, gzip and bzip archives, and more. Just drag, drop, and you're done. From BinHex to Zip, StuffIt to MIME, Expander accesses more formats, in less time, with zero hassles.

  • How can I extract .rar files that are dependent on the next in order to finish the extraction?

    Ex: Part 1 finishes, then asks for part 2, so on so forth!
    Trying to open something a colleague sent me, but is rather large. I have 5 .rar files. I cannot extract them seperatly or it errors/fails. Yet I cannot find a program that asks or searches for the next files in the extraction process. Tips? Programs that do? I know that WinRAR has what I need but they do not make a program for Mac, that I can get to work.
    P.s. please keep in mind i'm new to macs, my first one! and i really know nothing mac-specific, howver i know a fair bit about computers.

    It gave me the error when I ran the program, if I need to post a screenie I will. Also if unRarx does work, am I using it wrong? I've got all 5 .rar files together in one folder. Start unrarx, click browse, navigate to the first rar, click extract, then this error at the end:
    INSTRUCTIONS] + [SN] [CodeTempest]/********.dmg - CRC failed
    Total errors: 1
    ******** = name of program, kept private sorry.
    Thanks again.

  • How to extract original file contents from content server

    Hi,
    1)How can we extract original file contents from the content server (which in our case is SAP database itself)...
    2)What exactly is PHIO_ID and LOIO_ID?
    Thanks and regards,
    Santhosh Kumar U.P

    Hi,
    concerning your first question - please decribe, what you are trying to do.
    Question 2:
    LOIO_ID is the ID of the Logical Information Object. A LOIO is not a real document, but kind of a virtual document, a containerfor all "real" versions of a document. A PHIO (physical info object) is a real document.

  • How to extract cpio file ?

    Hi all,
    We are trying to install application server and download file is .cpio file. How do we extract this file. I have tried the following command and its just hanging.
    cpio -i (Filename)
    cpio -idmv (file_name)
    cpio -idcmv (filename)
    cpio -Hhpodc -idmv (file_name)
    none of above commands are working.
    Please advise.
    Thanks a bunch in advance.

    Actually I tried the command cpio -idmv <file_name>I somehow doubt you tried that exact string. Perhaps you tried
    cpio -idmv somefile.cpio
    In which case it would appear to hang, but in reality it would be waiting for input from standard in. The other posters correctly stated you should use
    cpio -idmv < somefile.cpio
    which means "run the cpio command with options idmv and take input from the somefile.cpio in place of default standard input device."
    Note that in Linux and Unix shells, the triangle brackets have meaning.

  • How to extract jar files into  a folder in the local disk and then import?

    hai forum,
    will any one tell me how should i extract jar files into a location in my project folder and then how to import the class files for further usage?
    Thank you .

    I will be graeateful if u could explain this a bit.
    Do you want to say that i should craete instance of
    ZipEntry like this
    InputStream is =
    jarFile.getInputStream(entry);
    File inputFile = new
    File("C:\\myclasses.data");
    FileInputStream fis=
    new FileInputStream(inputFile);No! You need to write the entry using FileOutputStream copying all the bytes of the ZipEntry InputStream to the FileOutputStream.
    >
    What about adding into a directory?Do i have to
    create on dynamically?Yes! You can use File.mkdirs(). For example
                        File ofile = new File("your directory where you will place the zip entries" + zipEntry.getName());
                        ofile.getParentFile().mkdirs();

  • How do I extract album art from an existing MP3 file?

    I have a folder of MP3s that all came from a rare out-of-print album. The album is so rare, I can't find an image of it anywhere on Google in any countries. I lost the cover artwork for the album, but it's embedded in the MP3 file because it pops up when I play the song or in the preview window. Fine good-resolution picture, too.
    How do I extract the image so I have a separate image file again?

    You could try Paragon HFS+ for Windows. That would allow you to read and write files from a Mac-formatted drive.
