Installing Palm Desktop 6.2 on Vista Business: only installs Media and Install, no Cal, Contacts

I attempted to install Palm Desktop 6.2 under Vista Business on top of Palm Desktop 6.2 beta. I selected a complete install. After the installation and the device sync, only the Media and Install sub-applications were available on the desktop (though all were still available on the handset). No Calendar, no Memos, no Contacts, nothing.
I subsequently re-installed (twice), each time removing the Palm Desktop software completely (from the control panel). Same result. Is there some trick to this I need to know?
Thanks.

Thanks, I very much appreciate the help. But why does this happen? I mean, after I tried it,
I figured, okay, maybe if I change the security permissions no the executable so that my id
has full control... But no. I did that (also changed the permissions on the link), but when I
bring it up under my account without running it as Admin, it still brings up only the media
portions of the Desktop. Then I went through c:\Program\Files\Palm and gave full control
permissions to my id for every executable I found in the top level directory. Still no joy.
I do appreciate the help -- it certainly beats not being able to access my calendar at all --
but I'm afraid I have to call this more of a workaround than a fix. For one thing, I'd like very
much to be able to access my calendar from a userid on this machine that does not have
Administrative privileges. Any chance for a fix at any point in the future?
Thanks again!

Error 1327 when installing Palm Desktop 6.2 on Vista

Hi,
When I try to install Palm Desktop 6.2 on my Windows Vista machine at work, I get
Error 1327.Invalid Drive: H:\
when the installation program is doing its "Computing Space Requirements" phase.
As far as I understand, I need to use version 6.2 on Vista? But how can I install it if the stupid installer does this space check? I have no intention to install on H: - it should be installed on C:. I do have my Documents folder stored on H:, which is a network drive.
Please help!

I am having the same problem. I plan on working with this tonight but so far the only solution I can think of is removing the network drive until install is complete, but I haven't even tried that yet.

Palm Desktop Crash when click the Month Tab or Media

I have a new Centro and have loaded the Desktop v 6.2.2. I was running an older Destrop with my Tungsten but upgraded.
Since the upgrade, I get some strange behavior with the desktop.
First, when I open the calendar and then click on the month tab (in lower left corner), the system will either hourglass or will simply crash out. This is consistent. The other tabs work fine (Day, Week and Year), but not the Month tab.
Second, when I try to go into the Media function on Desktop, it will hourglass and never open Media. I'm then forced to close desktop because the system is locked. This problem is also consistent.
The last issue has to do with desktop system colors. The older version of Destop offered different colors to indicate business, personal or other categories. With 6.2.2 there are no color choices and everything is gray. Where did the colors go?
So far I like the Centro, but have not been impressed with the new Palm Desktop at all....
Any help is greatly appreciated.
PS---I'm using XP Pro Service Pack 3

Installation Media and newer versions of the OS on install media.

I am looking for any resources for getting updated installation media throughout an operating system life cycle. I am unable to find this on the Apple Store. We have a deployment system that would like to be able to install from the installation media to each type of hardware. The process means nothing in my question.
What I need to know is there any way to get a copy of each os update on an install media rather than wait till it comes out and hope what you purchase will be the current. I am not looking to install for older media sources and the updating as that will break at some point.

If none of the items on this page is what you're looking for, Apple doesn't offer that.

Palm Desktop only displays media

Have TX. After register cleaning and defragmentation on laptop the Palm Desktop program only diplays Media and no longer calender, contacts, etc? Reinstalled vs 6.2 twice. No better. TX itself works fine. What is wrong?

What OS is on your computer? If Vista or Win7, try turning off UAC (Control Panel/Users/Turn off UAC).

Palm Desktop 6.2 with drivers and hot sync will not install

My new computer has dual quad core processors (8 processors), 8 GB RAM, Vista Ultimate 64 bit.
The Palm Desktop and Hot Sync manager will not load because the New Hardware Wizard cannot find the drivers for the Palm Centro even when I point the wizard to C:/Program Files (X86)/Palm/USB-drivers.
Is the Palm Desktop software compatible with Vista Ultimate 64 bit?
The software loads just fine and operates well on my quad core,2GB RAM, Vista Home Premium 32 bit.

Palm Desktop 6.2.2/Win 8 shows Media and Install? TRY THIS!

I now have a Windows 8.1 loaner from HP, and used it to compose this help file! Thanks HP!
If Palm Desktop 6.2.2 only shows Media and Install, try this: Right-click on the shortcut for Palm Desktop, then choose "Run as Administrator". The other modules should appear.
To make Palm Desktop "Run as Administrator" every time in Windows 8/8.1:
Close Palm Desktop, if open. (This is a very important thing to always do when using 6.2.2 - it has been known to lose data when a computer is shut down without closing the program!)
Right Click on the Palm Desktop Icon in the Metro screen, then choose "Open File Location". You will now see the actual file for the shortcut.
Right-click on the "Palm Desktop" shortcut file, then Properties. Now pick the Compatibility Tab at the top.
At the bottom of the Compatibility Tab is a checkbox: "Run this Program as Administrator". Put a check in the box, then click OK to close the window.
Try opening Palm Desktop, all the modules should appear. You may see a box open when you close the program asking "Did the program run correctly?" I picked "Yes", and it's been working fine since then!
If you have an older PalmOS device (pre T|E for example) and still can't see any data after trying the above, you may need to use the PalmHotSyncSetup program available from pimlicosoftware.com. This will translate the databases from the older style to one Palm Desktop 6.2.2 can process.

Cannot install Photoshop CS4 on Windows Vista Business

Ok people, looking for some help with this. I have a new PC (less than 2 months old). I cannot get Photoshop CS4 installed at all. I'm sure there have been a million threads like this before asking the same question. Although I am a newb to Photoshop I am certainly not when it comes to computers, this is what I do for a living. I can't even believe I am actually having to ask for help.... :\
Anyway, help appreciated. I have Windows Vista Business SP1 (32-bit), and its running on a Intel Core 2 Quad Q8300 @ 2.5GHz with 4 gig of RAM. I have plenty of free space on my hard drives.
When the install completes, I get the same error message, installed with errors. When I click to see the error info it says something about language packs (I can get the exact error if you want, just installed and uninstalled about 10 times but hey).
Things I have tried a few times have been to follow through all the other threads and the Adobe support pages - Uninstalling the product through Programs first, running Windows Install Cleanup, running the Adobe CS4 Clean Script - when I do these things in this order both of the cleanup utilities don't find any installs of Photoshop CS4, so it doesn't appear they are doing anything. I have disabled everything on the PC, done a selective startup, turned off UAC, firewall, anti-virus - everything suggested. Still, the same error persists.
I have even run my Registry Mechanic and cleaned up that, and of course checked registry permissions etc. Please help!

You may want to install Vista SP2. It contains a lot of fixes and has the newer 4.5 installer.
Also if Vista is set for English then CS4 has to be set as US English upon install (I think someone already pointed that out).
Before install go services and set the windows installer to auto and start it. Also good idea to turn off windows defender.
Go to MSconfig and turnoff as many start up items that you don't need running (you will have to reboot).
Ensure nothing Adobe related is running in the back ground before install. (someone already mention this I think)
Anti-virus: I turned mine off during install.
I did not install AIR nor Device Central on my system as I would never use them.

Palm Desktop 4.1.4 Install Aborts, Win Installer missing Palm Desktop.msi

I have been running Palm Desktop 4.1.4 on my Windows XP PC, and doing regular
Hot Sync to my Palm IIIxe handheld. However, I had to have my PC recovered recently,
and the Palm Desktop did NOT look like it got recovered along with the rest of my programs.
I downloaded PalmDesktopWin414EN.exe to my PC, and tried to do a re-install via the
native MS Windows XP Control Panel->Add/Remove Programs interface.
The Install Shield Wizard starts up properly, and I see the Progress bar, but
then Windows Installer stops, and complains about a missing file:
"The installation source for this product is not available (Palm Desktop.msi). Verify
that the source exists and that you can access it."
Sure enough, I do a Search, and I can find the Installer File Palm Desktop.msi
nowhere on my PC. Any suggestions on how to overcome this Windows Installer
block?
MY ENVIRONMENT
I do have the following Palm CDs, just in case they are needed, but I would prefer getting
this to work strictly by using the Palm 4.1.4 executable:
a. Palm Desktop 3.1 Aug 2000 CD
b. Palm OS Upgrade CD with
    1. Palm OS 4.1 upgrade
    2. Palm Desktop SW v4.0.1
My Palm IIIxe is still powered on battery, and still contains all my Applications right now,
so my problem is strictly getting my PC to come up on Palm Desktop 4.1.4 again, if
possible. Even if Palm Desktop comes up with null data, I could do a Hot Sync from
Palm Handheld back to the PC in order to refresh all the application data.
Suggestions?

Post relates to: Palm IIIxe

Trust me. I am NO computer teck type in even the slightest sense of the word. So the following suggestion may be completely lacking in helpfulness, BUT -- it may be necessary for you to "relive" the original process of earliest installation and by that I mean the first installation CD that came with the handheld. Verify that it WORKS with no issues. THEN upgrade with the 4.1.4 install and you might find yourself cured.

Hello.
I have the latest updates for Mac OS X 10.5.8 on a 3.5 years old 15" MacBook Pro. I also installed Palm Desktop v4.2.1 rev. D on it and it worked (saw all the data in its Palm Desktop). I am trying to get Apple's iSync to work with this old Palm Treo 680 device, but it doesn't see the installed Palm softwares: http://i.imgur.com/ovy8d.png ... What's wrong?
Thank you in advance.
