Need a method for importing Palm III data into a Palm Centro

I just bought a Palm Centro (Verizon), with the expectation of importing data from my old Palm III.  From the Palm III Desktop, I exported Contacts, Calendar, Tasks, and Memos into separate folders (this was done on a Windows XP PC) and copied the resulting folders & files onto a flash drive.  But when I try to import these files into the Palm Centro desktop (on a new Mac Pro with OSX), the backup files are not in a "recognized format."  Does anyone have a process for reliably getting the Palm III data into the Palm Centro?  Also, is there an easy way to purge unwanted Contacts/Calendar events from the Palm Centro handheld?  With all the trial and error, its accumulating a lot of garbage.  Thanks...

You will need to hard reset the Centro in order to clear out the Centro before sync'ing. Click on the following link for the hard reset procedure.

There are links on the pages to the user guide, troubleshooting, how to's, downloads, etc.
You could try to export the data in each category in Palm desktop, save to the flash drive and import the data.
Click here for the data export procedure.

Make sure you select "ALL" for the range during the export procedure. If you don't, it will only export the currently selected record.

  • Best Method for Importing and Exporting Data to a local 'resrouce'  file

    I've searched the forum, and seen glimmers of hope to what I am trying to piece together - but not in a concise way that will sink into my brain.
    Using Javascript on a PC for IDCS2, I'm writing a simple script that has a user interface.
    I'd like to have 4 default values for the user interface to be read from (and if altered, written to) a text file.
    What's the simplest way to go about this? I've read through many posts, and toyed around with readln and writeln functions, but nothing is working out. For some reason, I can't send any information to any file - let alone read it back in.
    Could somebody point me in the right direction? For simplicity sake let's say I have just one variable, "myVariable" - and I want to send it to and read it from c:\test.txt.
    Someday - this will all sink in. Right now, I'm reaching for Aspirin.

    Hi D Scott Chinn,
    Try something like this:
    var myFile = File.saveDialog ("Save file as:")
    if(myFile != undefined){
    var myString = "Write this string to a file."
    myFile.open("w");
    myFile.write(myString);
    myFile.close();
    Thanks,
    Ole

  • Best methods for importing artwork via Illustrator with tranparency?

    I'm new to Final Cut Pro and am tryin to figure out the best methods for importing artwork via Illustrator. So far, I've been saving the artwork as a transparent PNG, but I feel like there should be a better way. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,

    Hi:
    Ussually I have to rebuild in AI the company logo (I use to work for industries) to include in FCP edit.
    - If you have CS2, open Photoshop and create a new file using the right preset (i.e. DV PAL) using transparent background. That creates a PSD empty file with all attributes you need (pixels dimensions and aspect ratio) to use later in FCP.
    - Select your work (i.e. the final logo) in the AI canvas and copy it.
    - Paste it in the empty PSD file as "vextor information" (I don't remember right now the exact words!). That way you can resize it in the PSD file without loosing quality.
    - The better ir deciding the size NOW in Photoshop, or create sveral version in different sizes. Yuo'll get better quality id you make the resizings in Photoshop rather that doing a scale in FCP timeline.
    - Once your logo is in the right dimension into the PSD file, save a copy and flatten all layers keeping the transparent background. If you don't need the layers during editing in FCP, you better have all layers flattened.
    - Import that file in FCP.
    That's my workflow, but probably you'll find different flavors here!

  • I need a method for ignoring empty lines

    Hi to all,
    i need a method for ignoring empty lines when my program reades a file like that
    start of file
    print "xoxox"
    //ignore this line
    println"xaxaxa"
    //ignore this line
    end of file
    cheers

    Are you having trouble detecting these empty lines? Or are you having trouble not processing them once you've detected them?
    For the first case, you neeed to define "empty." I assumed it meant "containing no characters," and that's what the first solution shows. Your example looks like "empty" means "starts with comment characters."
    For the second case, you ignore them by just not doing anything: read a line
    if (it is not empty) { // by whatever criteria you define for "empty"
       do something with it
    }

  • Best Method For Importing Clips Between FCP Projects

    What is the best method for importing clips between FCP 7.0.3 projects?  I am wondering whether or not pulling the clips from the Capture Scratch folder is the way to go or will using Import from the new FCP project create a new folder in Capture Scratch with the imported clips?  I have a new HD camcorder with different clips for different projects and Log and Transfer makes it so easy to bring them all in at once but now wondering how best to separate them into separate Capture Scratch folders for each project. 

    well, I simply either drag them in to the new/different project from the finder, or drag or copy and paste between open fcp projects.  Never had any problems working this way.  Just remember that if you delete a specific project scratch disk folder, you may be deleting media used in another project.

    On a second note, inporting in iMovie from DV (tape) cameras dramaticly reduced the image quality. Do we still have the same issue when importing an iFrame movie?

  • CIM XML Examples for Importing Service Item Data

    Use these simple XMLs to edit and create your CIM file to import SI Data...
    The Lifecycle Center guide provides all the instructions on how to create the CIM XML for importing Service Item data - the attached examples can be used as a starting point for you to use.
    The "Host Policies" example provides the format for a single service item
    The "System Policies Approvals" example provides the format for multiple service items
    Note the image below taken from the LCC guide to capture the correct data type that must be used in defining each SI attribute in the XML.

    maybe I'm being a bit slow on the uptake, but I've tried and tried and none of my XML files will import, they always stop at 'Class Not Recognised'.
    I had originally assumed the class was the SI type - does anyone have any information about this?
    Thanks, meghan

  • Importing non-unicode data into unicode 10gR2 database

    Hi:
    I will have to import non-unicode data into unicode 10gR2 database. The systems the data is coming from are the following: CODA, Timberline, COMMS, CMS, LIMS. These are all RDBMS, sql-enabled systems. We are talking about pretty big amounts of data (a couple hundred GB combined).
    Did anybody go through a similar exersize?
    I know I'll have to setup nls_length_semantics to CHAR.
    What other recommendations could you guys give?
    TIA,
    Greg

    I think "nls_length_semantics" isn't mandatory at this point, and you must extract a little quantity of information from every source and do some probes injecting them into the Oracle10g database.

  • Import CSV/Excel data into Flex Datagrid using Java/JSP

    Hi,
    Is there any way we can import excel/csv data into flex datagrid component.
    I see that is been done using php in this site. http://code.google.com/p/as3xls/
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks in advance

    You can store the list of data from the Excel sheet that you have read already into an ArrayList
    Then go through the JDBC tutorial, and learn how to insert a single record into the table.
    After you understand how to insert a single record, you can iterate through the ArrayList of data and insert them into the table in the database.
    If you know JDBC, see if you can use OR Mapping frameworks like Hibernate or iBatis, they make it very easy to manage database in Java.

  • Need help for importing oracle 10G dump into 9i database

    hi, Someone help me to import oracle 10G dump into 9i database. I'm studying oracle . Im using oracle 10G developer suite(downloaded from oracle) and oracle 9i database. I saw some threads tat we can't import the higher version dumps into lower version database. But i'm badly need help for importing the dump...
    or
    someone please tell me the site to download oracle 9i Developer suite as i can't find it in oracle site...

    I didnt testet it to import a dump out of a 10g instance into a 9i instance if this export has been done using a 10g environment.
    But it is possible to perform an export with a 9i environment against a 10g instance.
    I am just testing this with a 9.2.0.8 environment against a 10.2.0.4.0 instance and is working so far.
    The system raises an EXP-00008 / ORA-37002 error after exporting the data segments (exporting post-schema procedural objects and actions).
    I am not sure if it is possible to perform an import to a 9i instance with this dump but maybe worth to give it a try.
    It should potentially be possible to export at least 9i compatible objects/segments with this approach.
    However, I have my doubts if this stunt is supported by oracle ...

  • Accessing Old Palm III Data

    I stopped synching to the handheld about 1 year ago and just continued to use the desktop to enter data. I recently moved into a new Visa desktop PC and installed the Palm OS that supported my old setup.  I don't remember the exact way I had my user name entered (only know it used to store in an "EJ" folder) .. can't figure out how to load the old data. I figure it was intentionally made difficult to prevent hackers and theives - but I've grown attached to my old data (just not my old PC or the old device).  Time to upgrade - but if I can't even access the data ... what incentives do I have?  If I have to start over I'll just create an Access database form.
    Post relates to: Palm IIIc
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Do you still have the data in Palm desktop on the old PC? If you do, you can export the data from each category, save to a flash drive, cd-rw or hard drive then import the data into Palm desktop on the new PC. You can find out the username that the handheld is using by going into hotsync on the handheld and looking in the upper right corner for the name.
    If you are copying the userfolder to the new PC, paste it into the Palm folder on the PC. See if that may work. You can only do this if you are using the same version of Palm desktop.
    If you don't sync the handheld to the PC, if you lose data there is no backup file you can rename to recover the data. When you sync with the handheld, Palm desktop creates 2 files, for example; datebook.dat and datebook.bak. If you lose data in Palm desktop you can rename the .bak file to recover the data provided you have only sync'ed once.
    Here is a procedure for backing up your data, especially if you do not sync.
    The best way to preserve your data is to export the data in each category in Palm Desktop to a seperate folder on your PC.
    Create a new folder on your PC somewhere that is convenient. Name it something like Palm Desktop Data. Click on the link below and follow the instructions on that page for the export procedure.
    http://www.palm.com/cgi-bin/cso_kbURL.cgi?ID=28734
    Make sure you select all for the range in the export window.
    With the data saved in the folder you created, make a copy of that folder and save to a flash drive, cd-rw or external hard drive.
    Anytime you make a change in Palm Desktop, export the data that was changed to that folder and save again to the external media.
    With this process you can always import the data back into Palm Desktop anytime you have a problem with the data in Palm Desktop or if your computer/hard drive/device crashes.
