ISync time out - can't sync with Treo

I am having trouble syncing my Treo to G4 iMac (although it works with G4 Powerbook). Settings are set, as instructed on both iSync and Hotsync, however, on iMac I get the following:
Loading “Apple”
Conduit “iSync Conduit” version 3.0.0
Sync type is Fast
iSync Conduit starting 9/15/06 11:31:30 AM
Timeout waiting for Sync Engine, exiting 9/15/06 11:37:32 AM
iSync Conduit synchronization failed
“iSync Conduit” failed (error = #-1)
Help??

If you examine the iSync Palm Conduit using either the HotSync Manager or the HotSync menu of the Palm Desktop, is the option Enable iSync with this Palm device checked or enabled?
In the drop-down pane for your device in iSync, are the Contacts and Calendars options checked or enabled?

Setting up iSync on 2 Computers to sync with Treo 650

I have a iMac G-4 and a new iMac G-5. The first sync was done on the G-4 with HotSync using the USB connection which did find and sync the G-4's Address Book for some unknown reason, but not iCal. Now, I'm working with the G-5 and trying to set up iSync with the Treo. Using Bluetooth, the G-5 can find the Treo but I get a dialog box that says "iSync cannot connect to this device".
Could there be a conflict because the G-5 is using all the data that was transferred over from the G-4?
I would appreciate any help out there. Thanks in advance.

Welcome to Apple Discussions.
No, there is not inherent conflict, although you must understand several things:
It is a really bad idea to transport your Palm device as an effective 'storage vault' between two Macintosh computers, and synchronize with each. The correct approach is to pick one of these computers to synchronize your Palm device with, and keep the other Macintosh 'in sync' with the remainder of the pool using either .Mac Sync or MySync.
http://www.mildmanneredindustries.com/mysync
If you want to synchronize using Bluetooth, you should pick one Bluetooth-capable Macintosh to synchronize with, stick with that machine, then pair them by initiating the pairing from the Treo and confirming this pairing from your Macintosh. The first time you synchronize, you should overwrite the contents of your Palm device, so be sure that you are prepared to do so before you synchronize. If this means first synchronizing with .Mac Sync or MySync, then do that first.
If you intend to use USB instead, again pick one machine to perform your Palm synchronizations with, but it need not be a Bluetooth capable machine. If you intend not to switch machines but do want to easily switch between the faster USB path and the more convenient Bluetooth one, purchase a copy of the Missing Sync for Palm OS which facilitates this activity. Switching back and forth using iSync is problematic.
If you intend to use iSync and have added your Palm device to using the Enable Palm OS Syncing… option under the Devices menu—regardless of whether you have chose to use USB or Bluetooth—then you should be ready to proceed once you have followed the instructions which appear in the dialog boxes which appear when you select the option. [There is no other way to add a Palm device to iSync.] You must configure the actual synchronization profile before you proceed, however, by selecting the Tungsten device labeled with your HotSync name in the main window of iSync, an action which will drop down a configuration pane to enable your Contact and Calendar options.
If you intend to use the far more flexible and robust Missing Sync for Palm OS, then you must follow the instructions they provide for installing and configuring that application, again being sure that your first overwrite the contents of your handheld during the initial synchronization event.
Be sure that before you do so, in either case, that you back up your calendaring and contact information using the built-in back up options under the File menus of both iCal and the Address Book.

Time machine can't sync with older airport express

Just bought a new time capsule to replace a 7 year old airport extreme. I can't get the two airport expresses to work with it. The airport expresses are about 5 years old. I've tried to reset them. The airport utility says it has successfully reformatted them, but then when it tries to restart the airport express, it can't be recognized. Airport express light continues to flash amber.

Solved the problem using this forum. Changed the security to WAP/WAP2 personal.

An iPhone can be synced with only one iTunes library at a time

I recently bought a MacBook Pro, and I figured it would be pretty simple to move my iPhone to sync with iTunes on the Mac from iTunes on my pc, afterall it is the same program and both are designed for the iPhone.
I have been successful in getting the Contacts and Calendar to sync, but the Music, Applications, Video and a few other things give me this message when I check the sync box:
"The iPhone is synced with another iTunes library. Do you want to erase the iPhone and sync with this iTunes library? An iPhone can be synced with only one iTunes library at a time. Erasing and syncing replaces the contents of this iPhone with the contents of this iTunes library."
Obviously, I don't want to erase everything. Actually, I don't care about Music, Videos, Podcasts or Ringtones as I don't have any, but I do care about Photos and Applications. Actually Photos I can reload too, but I don't want to loose the apps I have purchased with the iTunes App Store.
I even tried going back to the PC and unchecking the Sync boxes on it, hoping this might disassociate it from the phone, but now even on that PC I get the same message.
How do I disconnect phone from the old iTunes and be able to sync it to the new iTunes? This should be simple right?

I made an appointment with a Mac Genius and I will say that while it was better than getting to talk to India on a poor quality phone call it was just about as helpful. Sure she was cute and friendly, but I left without my issue resolved and was surprised that I didn't even get a followup from anyone asking about my experience (hence my venting here)
Anyway, I found a solution for my issue here: http://tinyfish.net/2008/07/18/how-to-sync-iphone-with-multiple-computers/
This is a real solution to the issue, and has the benefit that I can do this to as many machines as I need and sync at any of them instead of just one. Hopefully, Apple doesn't delete my response since it truly is the answer to the problem and others might be looking for the same solution.

Same as you would if you bought a pc; copy everything from your old computer to your new one. Then you can just sync everything from the new computer, as you did with the old one.

HELP! - An iPad can be synced with only one iTunes library at a time....

I had to reinstall Windows 7. After that I reinstalled iTunes. I went to sync my iPad and it says "An iPad can be synced with only one iTunes library at a time. What would you like to do". I really don't want to lose ANYTHING on my iPad. Please tell me how to sync the data on the iPad to iTunes so I don't lose anything.
Thank you!

One of the three choices is "cancel" - just click that.

You are correct. Syncing should transfer any purchased media, including videos, from your device to your iTunes library provided your computer is authorized for the Apple ID used to make these purchases. You mentioned that you have uninstalled iTunes before, but if you didn't follow this guide exactly, uninstalling iTunes and all of its components in the order specified, it may not have been successful so you should try again: Windows XP or Windows Vista/7.

How can I sync with this library without erasing my data?

The iPod "Sayira's iPod" is synced with another iTunes library. Do you want to erase this iPod and sync with this iTunes library? An iPod can be synced with only one iTunes library at a time. Erasing and syncing replaces the contents of this iPod with the contents of this iTunes library.
So, okay, here's my story: My laptop caught a virus, so i sent it to this guy who fixes computers, now that my laptop is fixed, everything is deleted from it. I didn't really mind this too much, but anyway I redownloaded iTunes to my new hardrive and then it said the following (posted above). My question is, how can i sync with this new library without erasing any data from my apps (such as games, photos, videos, music)? I REALLY don't want to lose this data!

- Transffer iTunes purchases to the computer by:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
- Transfer other music by using a third-party program like one of those discussed here.
Copy music
- Connect the iPod to the computer and make a backup by right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and select Back Up
- Restore the IPod from that backup
Note that the backup that iTunes makes does no include symec media like apps and music.

I can't sync with FireWire port and I can't charge with USB port!!

Hi. I've a old model of iPod (M9244Y). After the last update, my iPod does sync with the FireWire port.
I tried with another PCs and Mac but it does work. Finaly I buyed an USB cable and this one syncs but not charge.
I've restored to early versions of iPod Updaters but it does not work again. Can I do somethig to fix it?
Why I can't sync with the FireWire port?
Please help me, I can't live without iPod, I can't live without music!!!

Do you have other Firewire devices? Do they work? Could be the FW ports are not working right.
First thing to do is reset the FW chip set on the mother board. Unfortunately, when you power down the computer there is always a bit of power still applied to the motherboard to keep things alive and this usually includes the ports to do stuff like detect when a device wants to wake up the computer. The downside of this is when a bus/port chipset goes into a weird state, power cycling the computer won't work.
So first thing to try is resetting the chipset and to do this you have to power down the computer and completely unplug the computer from the wall power (unplug the power cord to your Mac). Also unplug everything from the Mac's ports (USB, FW, Ethernet, etc.) to make sure no parasitic power is still there to keep the chip alive. Now let it sit for ten minutes (give those big power caps in there time to discharge). Now plug it back in, start up the Mac and see if your FW ports and the drive work any better.
