Lost Contacts in Palm Desk top

I have been using my Palm Desk Top for managing my contacts for years .. it has been easy, i really like it.
In the past when rebooting my lapotop It would wnat me to register with Palm? I would say "later" and when I booted up, my database woudl still be there.
I must have said "no thank you".. an dit wiped my contacts out. I am assuming they are still there..somewhere...

If you are still using Palm Desktop with the Z22 and want to start using the Treo with the same Palm desktop, export the data from the Z22 username in Palm Desktop. Create a new username for the Treo. Import the data into the Treo username then sync the Treo.
Click on the following link for instructions for exporting the data

Palm Desk Top 4.2.1 on Mac to be Compatible with Windows XP

At work I am using a Mac with Palm Desk Top 4.2.1 for creating a data base for customers. At home I have a PC with Windows XP. I want to be able to work from home to enter information but I am not sure what download version I should use that will be compatible with my computer. I am just new to Mac computers at work, so everything is new to me. Would appreciate any suggestions.

To WyreNut,
Thank you for your information on loading software for my Palm Desktop 4.2.1 to my PC using Windows XP. I was able to get it loaded but I am not able to create an address book to work with our names data base. I can get Contacts but that is it. I read the manual you had sent the link to as well, but it did not give me the information I needed. I did print up instructions from our Mac but what I downloaded is not the same. If you have any other suggestions I would love to hear them.
Thank you,
Are you using a Palm device, or just the software?
If using the device, when you do a Hotsync to the PC, all data should transfer to Palm Desktop.
"Contacts" is the newer name for the "Address Book", so I'm not quite sure what you mean by not being able to create one...?

Vista & Outlook 2007 with Tungsten E2 - Hotsync only syncs to Palm Desk top not Outlook

I have a Tungsten E2 for a few years and sync it with no problem on my home computer with Windows and the Palm Desk top.
I just started a new job where we have Visa & Outlook 2007 and would like to keep both systems in sync with my Palm. I downloaded and installed the new version of Palm Desktop 6.2 and the Outlook 2007 Update at work. The downloads went fine. I selected Outlook as my tool of choice. When I did the sync - everything was updated on the Palm Desk top not in Outlook. I tried to remove & reinstall the software but it refuses to recognize Outlook as being my desktop software. I get no errors. Any suggestions?
Post relates to: Tungsten E2

The 6.2 version has the Outlook 2007 conduits included, you do not need to install the patch for Outlook 2007.
If the data is sync'ing with Palm Desktop but not Outlook you will need to change the conduits to sync with Outlook.
Go to start-programs-palm and look for PIM conduit switcher and change to Outlook.

No Media Button using Palm Desk top 6.2 and Windows Vista

I installed Palm Desk Top on my XP machine today and noticed a Media Button. I have been using the same version of Palm Desk Top on MY laptop which runs Vista Home Premium. How can I get the Media button on my Vista machine?

This version of Palm Desktop (and Hotsync) are from Access (the company that acquired PalmSource). Palm does not own these applications and may not have legal rights to modiify them any longer.
Access provided the absolute minimum and did not include any enhancements that Palm made to prior versions of these applications when Palm and PalmSource had better working relations.

Palm Desk Top 6.2 Address Look Up Function Does Not Work In Windows 7

I recently upgraded my desk top computer's operating system from Windows Vista Home Premium to Windows 7 Home Premium.  I synchronize with a Palm Tx PDA.  HP PalmOS customer support Chat helped me work through a compatibility issue that was preventing display of Address, Calendar, Memo and To Do items on my desk top computer via the Palm Desk Top 6.2 application.  I now find that the address look up function does not work (although it worked fine when I was running Vista). Without success, I tried running the repair tool as well as reloading the software (both overlay and clean reinstall). I would appreciate any help or suggestions to fix?

Centro HotSync with Palm V6.2.2 Locks up at DATE BOOK - no calendar records on Palm Desk Top

First let me say that I hate the new version 6.2.2 Palm Desktop and the ongoing problems I have doing a hotsync. Today, I had to restart my computer as I "uninstalled" a non related program from my computer. When I restarted my computer and opened my Palm Desktop, all the calendar data was gone. Since my Centro was recently hotsync'd, I hooked it up and tried to perform a sync. The device and the desktop "locked up" at the DATE BOOK function. I found another Forum post where a tech support individual said to "download Pimlico DbFixit Trial version" which I did and ran. It indicated a problem as: Calendar DB-PDat: Both Description and Note are blank - usually a corrupted record. Rec=1508 Date= 1/11/09. I also went into the Palm Desktop and in the "Applications" section found "DATE BOOK" and UN CHECKED it. Running a hotsync again allowed me to update everything EXCEPT the calendar.
HOW DO I FIX THIS AND GET THE CALENDAR BACK ON MY DESK TOP?
Post relates to: Centro (Verizon)
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Find the calendar events that Dbfixit found and delete them. Or buy the paid version and it should repair them. Also try hitting the menu button while in Dbfixit (bottom right hand button) Then clicking on Delete/remove all Calendar blobs.

Palm Desk Top 6.2, a step backwards?

I use the Palm desktop considerably for my work schedule. I just got a new laptop which came with Vista. I downloaded the latest Palm desktop (6.2.2) and while the program works I am very disappointed that some of the features of the old version are no longer there. It is definitely a down grade. What I am specifically missing is the ability to change color for different categories so I can see at a glance the type of appointment in my schedule. This was very useful to me and was available in the older version I was using on my XP laptop. Does any one know if the latest version will be upgraded back to the level of customization of the old version?

How do get palm desk top 4.2 for windows again?

About 1 year ago,had Palm m130 got Palm Centro, had problem transferring info. Called palm support they e mailed version 4.2 for windows. Had to put new hard drive in laptop. Would like to get 4.2
Post relates to: Centro (Verizon)

It works fine for me.
1. Click the link in my signature that says "Reading the Manual can be very enlightening".
2. In the page that opens, click the link that says "Palm Desktop 4.2".
3. Download and install the file that arrives. If it doesn't work, your firewall or browser may be blocking things.

Want to change from entourage to palm desk top

Dont know how to do this, any help would be appreciated
Post relates to: Palm Z22

Hello ellenesk and welcome to the Palm forums.
I don't have a current copy of Entourage, but you need to move the Entourage conduit from the Conduits folder to the Disabled Conduits folder. Then move the four Palm conduits from the Disabled Conduits folder to the conduits folder. Once that is done, reboot your Mac and try to HotSync.

Cannot recover Desk top Data

I have an IIIxe which quit working 2 weeks ago. Before I could get a new one my hard drive on my computer crashed. I have recovered the address files and down loaded Palm 4.01. I cannot get my newly loaded Palm desk top to read the recovered files. I have names and phone numbers that I desperatly need to recover.
Thanks,
Randy
Post relates to: Palm IIIxe

Are these files from the same version of Palm desktop that you are installing? They must be from the exact same version number or the files will not work.
You are going to need to rename the files. Are these files only named .bak or are there files with the .dat extension? The .bak file is a backup of the .dat file. The .dat file is the primary file that stores the data for Palm desktop. If you only have.bak files, rename those to .dat and then open Palm desktop to see if the data is restored.
Here is the procedure for recovering data.
You can recover the data from your user folder provided you have only sync'ed once with the PC when you discovered the data missing. When you sync to the PC there are files created for each PIM category in your user folder. For Example; datebook.dat or datebook (Depending on the version of Palm Desktop) and datebook.bak. Using 6.2 the file names are .mdb and mdb.bak. For 6.2, the files are located in the username folder in PalmOSdesktop in my documents.
The files are named .dat and .bak. When you sync, the current data is stored in .dat. The next time you sync the data in the .dat file is copied to the .bak file. You can rename the .dat to .old. then rename the .bak to .dat. If the data in the .bak file is intact, it will now be in palm desktop when you reopen Palm desktop. I have included a link to show you how to find the userfolder on the PC.

Here is another link regarding data loss;
http://www.palm.com/cgi-bin/cso_kbURL.cgi?ID=39503
The best way to backup your data is to use the export feature in Palm Desktop. Make a new folder on the PC desktop named Palm Desktop Backup data. Next, select the category you want to export. You will get a window that asks where you want to save the file, save in the folder created on the desktop. There is a button that allows you to select currently selected record or all, select all. If you don't select all, then only the record highlighted is exported. You will then need to name the file for export, I suggest the name of the category, eg: datebook (With current date). Do this for all critical data in each category. With the data exported to the folder on the PC desktop, you can save this data to a flash drive, external hard drive or a CD-RW. With this method you will have your data in a seperate place than Palm desktop and the device. If you "Lose" data again, you can import the data back into palm desktop.
Make sure that when you make changes in palm desktop or the device to export the data to the folder created for the backup.

Kappy Thanks for help.. I had already tried the Disk Utility but external drive did not show. What worked was to shut down every thing and shut off power to all. Disconnect power to the external drive. Connected power to computer and then restarted the computer. After the computer was up and running, I reconnected power to external drive and then turn it on. At this point the external drive returned to my desk top
