How Do I Turn On My New Palm TX?

I received my new Palm TX today and went to set it up.  As instructed, I connected the handheld device to the computer and hooked it up to power.  I then charged it for over 4 hours.  However, I can't get any further.  When I press the power button I get a screen with the red target and the instruction "tap the center of the target."  When I do that repeatedly the target moves to the center of the screen, then to the lower right and then back to upper left.  I am in an endless loop and can't get out of it.
The instructions say press the reset button and then recharge for another three hours.  I have done that a couple of times, but with no success.
Do I have a defective unit, or am I missing something simple?  If nothing else, can someone tell me how to get in touch with Palm customer service?
Thank you.

Try a Hard Reset to start all over...
To perform a Hard Reset: (Palm Knowledgebase article #887)
While pressing and holding the Power button down, tap and release the Reset button in back and continue to hold the Power button down. When the grey Palm logo appears, you can release the Power button.
You should now see the warning page in about 5 languages. Press the UP direction on the 5-way pad to complete the task. Your Palm will reset itself several times as it re-installs the original programs and erases all your previous data.

    Are you referring to Australis? <br/>

    Firefox Nightly 29.0a1 has that new User Interface. But Australis won't be in a release version until Firefox 30 or 31, well into 2014.

  • Can anyone tell me how to stop / turn off my new macbook pro properly?

    Hey. Can anyone tell me how to stop / turn off my new macbook pro properly? Every time I want to put away my computer for a while and then restart the computer again at a later time the battery has been used. That is, the computer indicates that I have used battery, even though I put away the computer with 100% charged.

    Every time I want to put away my computer for a while
    Prior to shutting down, attach the Magsafe.  It will prevent your battery from draining while turned off or even sleeping.
    is how you shut down properly.

  • How can I turn off the New Mail alert on my iPod Touch?

    I have an iPod Touch (version 6.1.3). The other day I was waiting for an important e-mail, so I  turned on the New Mail alert. It worked fine. Now I want to turn it off, but  I can't. I went into Settings and then to Sounds and changed the selection from the sound I'd selected ("Bell") to None. It says "None" but every time I get a new e-mail, it still makes the bell sound.
    I also tried going into Notifications and then to New Mail Sound and setting it to "None" but that didn't change anything
    Any ideas what I'm missing?
    Thanks!

    Try removing the mail totally from your notifications center.
    I have everything turned off and the banner set to none.

  • How do I turn off the new "Erase Data" feature

    With 2.1, in Settings>General>Passcode Clock, there is the option to "Erase Data" which will "Erase all data on this iphone after 10 failed passcode attempts". Mine is set to "Yes", but is grayed out so I cannot turn it off.
    How do I turn it off?
    It is a cool feature, but my kids pick up my phone and try to use it all the time - it is only a matter of time before they try ten times and I'll be screwed.

    Mine is set to on as well and greyed out.. Here is the catch. Im syncing to my companies exchange as well. For all our smart phones they request a mandatory pin and require a remote wipe after 10 failed attempts. Now if you think back to when you setup your exchange.. did it require you to put in a pin, and can your disable that pin if you wanted? if the answers are yes and no respectively then chances are your company does the same thing mine does and you would not be able to disable the erase data option unless you stop syncing to echange. Hope this was helpful..

  • How do I turn of the new remember password option?

    Safari 6 now asks in any website with a password entry if the login info should be remembered. How can I turn this off for every webpage? I am using 1Password and I do not want to always say "no not this time".
    Thanks!

  • How do I turn off the new camera icon on the lock screen?

    For me, I don't like the camera icon on the lock screen.  I don't want someone picking up my phone and taking pics without my permission.  How do I turn it off and remove the icon from the lock screen???

    You can't unless you disable the camera app completely in restrictions. However, if you set the Require Passcode to Immediately in Settings>General>Passcode Lock>Require Passcode>Immediately the iPhone cannot be accessed even if the camera was opened accidentally and subsequently neither could your photos as a message would appear stating Your iPhone is Locked.
    I appreciate that doesn't prevent someone from taking photos from your iPhone without permission.

  • How do I turn off this new **** Guest account?

    In upgrading to mountain lion I checked the 'back to my mac' option in the iCloud setup, this now has enabled a special "Guest User" account which reboots the computer into a locked down Safari-only mode to entice thieves to go online.
    I don't want this.  I've disabled "back to my mac", but this account will not go away.
    I've tried unchecking the "Allow guests to log into the computer", but it is greyed out and I'm not allowed to uncheck it, even after unlocking the settings.
    Lion used to have a setting under Preferences->Security/Privacy->Advanced where you could set an option "Disable restarting to Safari when screen is locked" to turn this off, but this setting is now gone in 10.8
    At my wit's end, need to disable this login. 
    Any ideas?

    My two cents here if you please.
    First, I have encountered this back in Lion. Now in ML as well. Let me break this into two parts:
    1. The cause:
    IN MY CASE both on Lion and ML, the Guest Account login item appears after you share your folders when enabling Bak to My Mac feature. I have not used FileVault or created a guest user for any purpose. Just creating the shares leads to this.
    2. The cure:
    a) in Lion - exactly as described in this thread - by going to System Preferences / Security - and then unchecking the Restart Safari thing
    b) in ML - (PLEASE NOTE - THIS IS HOW IT WORKED IN MY CASE!!!) - System Preferences/Users&Groups (unlock the pane) - go to Guest User and here UNcheck "Allow guests to log in to this computer" AND "Allow guests to connect to shared folders" (please remember - you may have a different set of options, mine is such probably because I have sharing enabled).  Then, when you close System Preferences and restart the Mac, you should see only ONE user to log in (with picture, no need to manually type in the user name).
    One more thing: just in case it mattes - I DO NOT have Find My Mac feature enabled, while ALL other iCloud features ARE enabled.
    Hope this helps! Attached is the screen for your convenience.

  • How can I turn off the new "tabs on top" layout of the new Firefox?

    Dear Mozilla,
    Te be honest I was very comfortable with the old Firefox layout and really don't like the new 'Tabs on Top' layout. It's one of the main reasons I hate Chrome.
    Is there any way I can turn it off? I haven't been able to find it.
    If not, can you direct me to a download page for the previous version of Firefox.
    Thanks and bets regards,
    Chris

    I can't help but agree with you, Chris. Computer interfaces are usually analogues for the physical world and it seems that most of the just-newly-adult population has forgotten what GUI cues are meant to be - your mention of tabs' appearing on top is a case in point.
    Has the just-newly-adult population forgotten manila folders? You know - those light-cardboard folders that you put pad paper and documents inside; ones that you slip into a filing cabinet, long-edge down, with TABS showing along the now top edge, so that you can read what they contain. Indeed, have you looked, people, Mozillians, at the symbol universally used for File/Windows Explorer? A manila folder!
    The edges of manila folders are the tabs that ....wait for it, signify what they contain or represent. Simple. Similarly the just-newly-adult population may have forgotten tabbed diaries. 'Calendar books' with tabs down the opening side that let you select a page somewhere in the diary with information in it described by words or symbols on its tab. Simple!
    Tabs should be attached, indeed, be part of, with NO separation from, the pages to which they belong, IMVHO.
    Simplify the interface, Mozilla, designed according to good real-world principles.

  • How can I turn off the new "full screen zoom"?

    Man, horror of horrors: Apple seems to have suddenly (with 10.8.2?) activated a terrible "full screen zoom" feature which makes a window zoom to maximum size if I happen to move the window along the top of the screen. Several times per hour I accidentally make my windows full screen, even tiny graphics I happen to be working with in Photoshop, and it's one of the worst UI changes Apple has rolled out since they tried to force all function keys to only work as volume, brightness etc.
    So, does anyone know a way to get the "force window to jump to full screen" option to go away?

    I'm not aware of the behavior you're describing. I've never seen it, and just tested it for myself. I cannot get windows to zoom to full screen just from moving them to or along the top of the screen. Is this only happening in Photoshop? If so, it may be a Photoshop issue. If not, have you installed any kind of third-party software that might be doing that? Try rebooting in safe mode and see if the problem persists then. If it doesn't, but comes back when you reboot normally, the problem is caused by some third-party software you have installed.

  • New Palm Profile for Used Palm Pre

    Hi,
    I bought a second-hand Palm Pre (Movistar, ES) and now want to establish a new Palm Profile so I can use the phone in Australia (Optus, AU).
    How do I set up a new Palm Profile on this phone ?
    It is currently running WebOS 1.4
    Thanks,
    Nick
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Hi,
    I wiped the device and started from scratch and couldn't get past the Insert SIM etc screen.
    When I restarted the device, it then locked in Seting Language.
    I have now gone back to WebOS 1.3.5.2 using a Meta-Doctor hack, and can run the device, use phone etc.
    When I ran the First Use App, it asked for my language then did a reboot, and still not Palm Profile.
    Is there a Palm website where I can set up a profile, and the use my ESN to get Palm to send the info to my phone ?
    I also tried using root-based program to force a profile creation:
    luna-send -n 1 palm://com.palm.accountservices/createNovaAccount {\"password\":\"YOURPASSWORD\",\"email\":\"[email protected]\",\"firstName\":\"YOURFIRSTNAME\",\"lastName\":\"YOURLASTNAME\",\"language\":\"en\",\"country\":\"gb\",\"questionId\":\"2\",\"response\":\"FIRSTCAR\"}
    This came back with ACCOUNT_CREATION_ERROR "Could not get account server url"
    Any help appreciated, as I want to download proper Palm Apps, as well as the Homebrew Apps.
    Thanks,
    Nick

  • Droid Razr - how do it turn off internet radio?

Well you would hit the Pause button then Tap your Menu then you will see an option to Exit once you do it will stop.

  • New Palm TX freezes completely after turning on Wi-Fi

    Hello,
    I live in Europe and recently bought a new Palm TX over ebay. Everything runs fine, but when I turned on Wi-Fi (right out of the box, nothing installed), the screen becomes white, backlight is on, and it freezes. A soft-reset awakes the device. I already tried a hard-reset. Nothing helps. Sending it back to the dealer and re-sending it to me would cost a lot aof time and money, so I decided to change the mainboard by myself (I'm a computer technician, so that's no problem for me).
    BUT: Where from can I quickly get a new motherboard? Are there any available at Palm.com?
    Thanks
    Roman

    Thank you, rk87! I was unaware that I would qualify for AppleCare. Btw, the # is: 1-800-275-2273
    The AppleCare tech who called me set about recreating the problem I was having. On his first try, his Maps app incorrectly identified the apartment bldg across the street from him as his Current Location: the exact situation I found myself in. However, he could not provide an explanation, nor a solution to correct the issue. This was after he sought advice from every person with whom he had access.
    Apparently, my problem w/inaccurate locations has happened to many other Maps/Wi-Fi users. The problem, he explained, is that no one up the chain of engineers is truly aware that this condition exists. So, he asked me to present the issue - and its lack of a solution - again in a Feedback forum. Naturally, I don't have a clue as to how that's done effectively ...
    So - once again - can you put me on the trail of someone who CAN assist?
    Thanks,

  • I was trying to make a new screen recording using quicktimeplay, but when I watched the video after recording it all I could hear was me talking while the video was showing on the screen. How do I turn off that recording and turn the right one on? thanks

    Hi j2399123,
    It sounds like your screen recording is doing what it was designed to do, capture what is happening on your screen, with optional voice over with the microphone.
    Screen recording is for recording what you see on the screen, it is not a "video capture" option, like for capturing a movie with sound that is playing on your screen.
    For the QuickTime recording options, check out "Recording with QuickTime Player" in
    Mac Basics: QuickTime Player creates, plays, edits, and shares video and audio files
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4024
    And for screen recording specifically, there's
    QuickTime Player 10.x: Record your computer’s screen
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH5882
    Thank you for thinking of Apple Support Communities for your support needs.
