MAC OS 01.4.11 WITH SPRINT CENTRO PALM SYS. TRYING TO CONVERT CONTACTS TO PALM 800W? NOT POSSIBLE?

THERE ARE 4 PROBLEMS TRYING TO CONVERT FROM PALM CENTRO DATA TO PALM 800W:
1.MAC needs third party software to convert to ms,(if you have windows computer you still have the MS ongoing problems),
2.PALM PDA CELL PHONES,(no vision for the future)
3.NEW 800W WINDOWS MOBILE CELL PHONES.(usual monumental updates $$$)
4.SPRINT(lacks the technical support).
CAN'T TRANSFER 565 CONTACTS FROM CENTRO(palm system) TO PALM 800W(windows mobile system). WINDOWS SUCKS. WON'T ALLOW TRANSFER OF MORE THAN ONE CONTACT TRANSFER AT A TIME VIA BLUETOOTH(the only way to transfer data). THAN IF YOU DON'T HAVE A WINDOWS BASED COMPUTER, YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO SYNC DATA.
ON ONE AT SPRINT CAN HELP. YOU WOULD THINK IF SPRINT OFFERS THE PALM PHONES AS UPGRADES, THEY WOULD BE ABLE TO PROVIDE PALM CUSTOMERS INFORMATION ON HOW TO TRANSFER DATA TO WINDOWS MOBILE DEVICES. THIS IS A PRIME EXAMPLE OF MICROSOFT CONTROLLING THE WORLD OF TECHNOLOGY AND SPRINT AND PALM OBVIOUSLY THEIR SLAVES. 
YOU'D THINK PALM WOULD BE PROUD ENOUGH WITH THEIR "AWARD WINNING OPERATING SYSTEM FOR PDA'S" AND NO DOUBT BEST, STABLE SOFTWARE FOR CELL PHONES, TO HAVE ENOUGH PRIDE TO MAKE A NEW PALM CELL PHONE THAT WOULD BE COMPATIBLE WITH THE SPRINT NAVIGATION SYSTEM... MAYBE THE CENTRO WAS THEIR LAST STAND. LAZY FOLKS, BLACKBERRY MOVING AHEAD...
NOTHING SYNCS... NOTHING TRANSFERS... AND NOTHING IS COMPATIBLE... IMAGINE!.... IF YOU WANT SPRINT NAVIGATION AND HAVE USED PALM PDA PHONES FOR THE LAST FEW YEARS... good luck.
I AM CHANGING CARRIERS AFTER 10 YEARS WITH SPRINT AS A LOYAL CUSTOMER... NO ONE CAN HELP. MY AVERAGE BILL WITH SPRINT IS $240 PER MONTH PAID IN FULL EACH MONTH AND NOW UNDERSTAND, THEY ARE NOT ABLE TO RESPOND TO THE NEEDS OF LOYAL CUSTOMERS.
PALM IS JUST AS GUILTY BY ENDORSING A NEW "PALM 800W" PHONE THAT CAN NOT TRANSFER INFORMATION FROM LOYAL PALM PDA CELL PHONE USERS TO THE "NEW PALM 800W", CAPABLE OF THE "NEW SPRINT NAVIGATION SYSTEM" PHONES. 
TRY AT&T WITH THE IPHONE. MAYBE IT WILL TRANSFER DATA, SYNC WITH MAC AND BE AN ASSET NOT A MAJOR PROBLEM.
THE OTHER OPTION IS TO TRY THE "BLACKBERRY'S". UNLIKE PALM, THEY HAVE STAYED UP WITH TECHNOLOGY AND HAVE NEW PHONES OFFERED BY SPRINT THAT ARE COMPATIBLE WITH "SPRINT NAV" AND CAN TRANSFER OLD PALM FILES.

Respectfully, I can understand your frustration but no windows mobile based device is supported to sync to a Mac. Certainly this is frustrating but I would suggest research in the future if you require certain features in a product.

    Unfortunately yes, but Snow Leopard is still a great OS in the meantime so don't rush in too quick if you really don't need to.

    This is not necessarily 100% correct at the current time.
    As Dropbox is encouraging people to set it up for automatic uploading of photos they gradually increment your space as you load more pictures for free at the current time.
    You do start with a fixed 2 GB but if you upload photos you will be awarded more free space.
    You can also open a free account with Flickr - you may have some upload limits per day but you can upload pictures there.

    Yrs,

    Yes, you can do this. Drag the music track to the background and start adding your pictures. A great way to do this is to use beat markers so your photos will change on the beat.
    A really fast way to do this is to line up your photos in an iPhoto album in the order you want them. You can drag the whole album into iMovie at once.
    Here is a tutorial on the beat marker feature.
    Here is a sample of a slideshow made by dragging in the music first, adding beat markers, and then adding photos.

  • I have my Canon GL2 connected to my I-Mac OSX version10.7.3 with a Belkin 800/400 9-pin to 4-pin firewire cable not working!!

    I have my Canon GL2 connected to my I-Mac OSX version10.7.3 with a Belkin 800/400 9-pin to 4-pin firewire cable and the computer is not acknowledging the camera.

    While holding the option key, click the  in the menu bar and select System Information. Select Firewire in the Hardware section and see if your camera shows up as a connected Firewire device. If not, then you have one of three basic problems:
         1. Defective Firewire cable
         2. Defective Firewire port on computer
         3. Defective Firewire port on camcorder
    Rule out any of the above by trying a different cable, Firewire device (like a hard drive) or try your camcorder/cable on a different/friend's computer.
    If you suspect a Firewire port problem on your computer, you can try resetting it by shutting down and disconnecting the power cable to the computer. Wait for 30 minutes and plug back in and startup. You can also try resetting Parameter RAM (PRAM) on the iMac. (Apple's Instructions for reseting PRAM)

  • Problem with smart Playlist after Upadte to 10.6 - PLEASE UPDATE SOON, Backup not possible

    Apple, Apple, Apple... (again)
    Is it so difficult to let things, that are quite good, just there where they are??
    After updating my iTunes, OS Lion and some other stuff 2 days ago, I have now a big problem with a smart Playlist in iTunes 10.6. Before updating all things was right.
    The problem: Now, AFTER UPDATE, my Playlist ist totally empty!
    Before they were over 2000 songs in it.
    And because this is my major-smart-Playlist, which is established to my whole other Smart-Playlists, the other ones are also empty.
    And this is not the first time Apple.
    It´s good, if you - apple guys - just added something like new categories to sort of music (like "iCloud-Status" or some others).
    BUT WHAT DID YOU THINK, WHEN YOU DELETED THE OPTION "VALUATION" - mh??? (I hope in english this is the word that used in Itunes - my iTunes is in German)
    So I don´t mean the "lines" - I don´t know the right english word - when you see the music. There you can fade in "Album-Valuation" - new -  AND  "Valuation" - old.
    But I mean in the options of the smart-playlists - THERE ARE ONLY "Album-Valuation"!!!!! What the heck....
    EVERYONE NEEDS THE NORMAL Song-"Valuation" - and not the album (because normaly you decide by each track how good he is and not by the whole album).
    You can let the Album ones in it, BUT PLEASE BRING THE NORMAL ONE BACK.
    So, in my case, I tried to go back to iTunes 10.5.3 with my nice Time-Machine-Backup. So, but I couldn´t because there came a bug-message that said something like "It is not possible because OSX need the Programm".
    What is that?
    I also couldn´t delete the iTunes app from my app-folder.
    So, and now?
    I had to totally restore my volume !
    What is that for a solution?!
    So please think before you delete any functions, who is needed by many people.
    And if you did, maybe ask some users, that uses  for example smart-playlists alot, if there is a problem about some changes, you want to add.
    I hope anyone from Apple read this and also answer me. Because I´m upset about that.
    In every iTunes-Update I am concerned about what will be after the update.
    For example in the past, there was more than one changes in iTunes with the Valuation. First, there was just whole stars to set for every song. Than, after a long time, Apple decided to give the options for also half stars. So I said to myself - hey that´s great, that I don´t have to use external apps anymore to set these. So I did this to many of my songs (and that´s many).
    Than - after an Update - wow, all half stars rating are gone ! Great Apple, really great.
    I was VERY upset.
    So after an other update, the opportunity to give half stars are back.
    I thought, my god, it is so difficult to talk with other guys, that worked before on iTunes if I am new or just to look if there was already a change in that part of the app???
    So, apple guys, please don´t think that I want to attack you. But please be more carefull in the future. I hope that I don´t have to worry too much about so stuff. I really have better things to do with my time.
    So, have a nice weekend.
    Greetings from Germany.

  • How do i expoert files from Outlook and import them into iphone? operate with Mac OSx at home and trying to convert contacts and calendars from work and carrying on iphone. txs

    How do I export calendar and contact files in Outlook and import them into iphone 4. I operate Mac OS X at home and wish to carry my work information with me on my iPhone.

    You do not export anything.
    Instead, sync the content from Outlook to your device via iTunes.
    Try reading the manual, it's included on the device or here.

  • Centro will not sync with Palm desktop - Calendar and/or Contacts

    I have used a Palm device for many years. Acquired a new Centro. Upon installation of Palm Desktop (on Windows XP) that came with Centro, all contacts, calendar, to do, memos, etc transferred to the Centro during installation. 
    Subsequent changes to contacts and/or calendar on Centro are not syncing with Palm desktop when Hot Sync is performed. Hot Sync starts and appears to complete normally. To Do list and memos appear to sync just fine. Have tried changing conduits to have Centro overwrite desktop. Have uninstalled/reinstalled Desktop many times.

    Post relates to: Centro (Sprint)

    I have a Centro/Verizon Wireless using Versamail with accounts established for personal POP and Exchange e-mail synchronization.  The latter account is for work.  Previously I owned a Treo 650p using Versamail. 
    When I first installed Palm OS Desktop and synched to my Centro device, it was on a Windows XP home computer, and no Versamail accounts were defined.  First I downloaded and installed the Versamail version which allowed Exchange synchronization.  I exported the Treo650p contacts list to a disk file, and imported it onto the Windows XP home computer into the Palm OS Desktop installed with the Centro-supplied CD.  This synched the imported contacts list to the Centro fine.  After I defined all the POP and Exchange accounts, synchronization with the office Exchange contacts list worked fine, and still does.  Synchronization with the windows XP home computer for contacts seems to still be ok, too regardless of the MS Exchange Versamail account commingling with my personal POP accounts.  Maybe the install sequence is overriding the previous posts' notation that MS Exchange mail definition will override synch with Palm OS Desktop?
    The problem now is I have a different/second home computer that's Vista os.  I installed the Palm OS Desktop and synch with the Treo.  The contacts list is not synching to this second home computer, maybe because I didn't follow the exact same sequence as for the Windows XP pc?  I can still synch my Centro with my Windows XP pc and that includes contacts.
    Is there a way on this second pc to override the MS Exchange contacts override for synchronization without having to go through the exact same install sequence as occurred on the Windows XP machine?

  • Centro won't Hotsync Calendar and Contacts with desktop

    Here's my problem.  I hotsync, but my Calendar and Contacts don't transfer to or from the handheld to the desktop.  I'm using a Palm Centro and trying to sync with Palm Desktop 4.2.1 on a MacBook running MacOS 10.4.11.
    I already tried a complete restart of my Centro, erasing all user data.  I then hotsynced it and it restored from the backup on my MacBook, but this did not fix the problem.  It restored my contacts and all my apps to their prior status, but I lost all the Calendar data in my Centro.  I still have the data on the MacBook from whenever it was just before it stopped synching correctly.
    The log proposes that I run the Contacts and Calendar applications and then run a hotsync.  I did that, but no results.  I still get the same stuff in the log.
    Please help.

    This may be dumb, but I did not think to look for this until i called Palm for help...
    After I had issues syncing, I re-installed the Palm software..when you do that, it sometimes turns off the ability to sync. To confirm that you have the ability to sync,  open Palm Desktop and go to Hotsync --> Setup, and check the HotSync Controls to see if it is "Enabled"
    Also, if you have problems syncing with Entourage...try this...
