Need Help Disabling Phone of Palm Treo 700w!!

Hi all -
I recently bought a cheap, used palm treo 700w to use as a PDA only; I have specific programs that need to run on a windows mobile 5 PDA, and the treo was much cheaper than an ipaq or other handheld device. However, the phone still has the original owner's phone number saved, as well as their pin number. Even though the phone is no longer hooked up to any wireless carrier services, I'm concerned that one of my children is going to pick up the phone and make an emergency call or somehow interfere with the original owner's current phone since the phone number is still saved. Is there a way to completely disable the phone features of the palm treo 700w and still use the PDA, not just "turn off" the phone by pressing the power button but preventing it from being used as a phone completely? Thank you so much!!

Thank you! That certainly seems to be the one I have, and the age isn't important for what I need. Now, though, that leads to the next issue, which is that I can't sync my contacts and calendar, although I think I've figured out why for myself. Still, it generates another question.
I am currently using Palm v 4.2.1 on my desktop (Mac 10.4.11) I bet it's too new, isn't it? Is it going to be possible for me to back off to Palm 4.0 without losing the information that's currently stored in 4.2.1? I don't mind installing an older version of the software (and I found the download), but if it means losing my information, I'll just pass this free Treo on to some other unsuspecting person.

J2ME for Palm Treo 700W

Hi, does anyone know of a J2ME environment which will work for this Windows Mobile device? Is there an IBM J9 version compatible with this device?

No, not with iSync, as it provides no support whatsoever for Windows Mobile or Pocket PC devices.
To support such devices, you must use a third-party application like the Missing Sync for Windows Mobile from Mark/Space or PocketMac from Information Appliance Associates. Both have promised updates to support Windows Mobile 5 devices like the Palm Treo 700w, but neither have released a completed, updated application to date.
Mark/Space is offering the opportunity to test an early alpha release of the Missing Sync for Windows Mobile. More information about that application is available here:

My phone is disabled, and I have forgotten my passcode? Need help reseting phone

My phone is disabled and I have forgotten my passcode, need help unlocking my phone

If you set up Find My iPhone (iPad/iPod), then it has the Activation Lock on it and I believe you'll have to erase the device through iCloud first:

Hi,
Should I contact the Palm manufacturerer in Sunnyvale, San Jose, do you think they can help me in solving my problem.
What do you think is it advisable.

That would be fruitless. Palm does not unlock phones, only the carrer can do that!

Palm Treo 700w can't connect to the Internet

I upgraded my Treo 700w system to version 1.22 and now can't connect to the internet. Pop up window says my setting are correct, but I didn't change them and they appear to be exaclty as they were prior to the upgrade. Suggestions???

thanks, not sure what order of things I tried, but your suggestion was one of them and now I can connect. Now I just have to figure out what the friggin bluetooth connection "passkey" is. Everytime I try to connect to my laptop via bluetooth the phone asks me for the passkey and won't allow me to exit that screen. Even when I initiate the connection from the laptop it asks for the passkey on both ends, but at least on the laptop it gives me the option of NOT entering one unlike the phone which MUST have one. Where the *&*! is the phone's passkey? Any suggestions?
TIA

I have a website with 1000+ members (1000+ phone numbers). I need members to call each other once we give them approval to contact via phone. However, I don't want them to see each other's number (also, it should show while dialing) but just click on logo and the other site phone rings (system will search database and call number assosiated to a profile.)
I have my PHP developers but they are not sure how to even start and out of ideas. And even if we do it on our website, will it destroy our site's performance/bandwidth...etc

Hi, Tamer732,

Need help to hot sync Palm with iBook

I have an "old" Palm product, m105, which hot syncs via a cradle that involves the old-fashioned serial port. I've been able to install and hot sync successfully on PCs before, but never could on my Macs because of the serial pins. I just received today a Keyspan USB serial port adapter from Palm, allowing me to connect the cradle from my laptop to the USB port.
However, I am unable to hot sync. This message appears on my Palm: "The connection between your handheld computer and the desktop could not be established. Please check your set up and try again." Nothing appears on the laptop computer screen.
I have checked everything I know to check, but, of course, I've been unsuccessful. I need some direction as to what else to do.
I'd appreciate any help, and let me know if you need more information from me. Thank you.

Welcome to Apple Discussions.
Generally, Palm cautions that "…if you use a Serial to USB adapter other than the one distributed by Palm - for example, the Keyspan USB adapter - it must be plugged in at startup and continue to be used in the same USB port."
Keyspan provides instructions for installing and using their adapter with Palm devices, beginning here:
http://www.keyspan.com/support/macosx/usa/docs/html/homepage19.html
If you need more help, I think you'll find the technical support personnel at Keyspan much better informed and more helpful than those at Palm.

Palm Treo 700W Iwould like to use mac mail as a pop account, unable to send

I am able to receive mac mail messages on my Verizon Treo 700W, however, I am unable to send. I have the outgoing server set as smtp.vzwmail.com - is this correct?
I get an error of "Unable to connect to the outgoing mail server. Verify that the server name is correct, then try again to send and receive mail."
Any ideas?
20" iMac G5, 17" Powerbook Mac OS X (10.4.3)

You will have to change your outgoing server settings. You will have to get an account at www.vtext.com (if you don't have it already). This will allow you to send mail. The account name will be your phone number [email protected] along with your user name and password. It's free to sign up.

PALM TREO 700W -SKINS FOR MEDIA PLAYER 10 MOBILE??

ANYONE KNOW WHERE TO GET ANY SKINS FOR FOR THE MEDIA PLAYER??? AND HOW ABOUT TODAY SCREEN THEMES? THANKS EVERYONE =) 160 CHARACTERS IN TEXT FOR MY PALM TREO 700 W IS THERE ANYWAY TO MAKE IT EXCEED 1 PAGE INSTEAD OF HAVING TO SEND THE FIRST 160 CHARACTERS THEN CREATE A NEW MESSAGE FOR THE REST?

If I understand correctly, then the old Outlook 2003 is no longer available to you. If that's the case, then all of your information should have been taken from your local outlook 2003 and put into the new outlook 2007 exchange. The only way you can sync with exchange is by using EAS. You will need the server address, domain name, and the username/password you use to log into outlook. I expect you may not have some of this information, which is where your IT department will be able to fill in the blanks. You won't need to use the Treo for email, but now that outlook 2003 is gone, that isn't an option for your contacts/calendar/notes anymore. When setting up the EAS on your device, it will ask what you want to sync, and you can select/deselect the options you prefer.
Hope this clarifies things a little bit.

Palm treo 700w

I have a treo 700w that I used with verizon wireless. I recently switched to At&t because of better coverage. I understand that the two systems are different. Can the treo 700w be reprogrammed to be used on the at&t system?
Post relates to: Treo 700w (Verizon)

as far as i know, verizon is using CDMA network while ATT is using GSM network. so it's impossible for the CDMA units to work GSM networks or vice versa.

I need help choosing a new Palm phone.

No device
I'm trying to get a new Palm phone but the HP website has no useful information. I would appreciate anyone's help with choosing a new phone to replace my Palm Centro. I want to continue using the Palm because it sounds like iphones and other smart phones don't have a way to back up their contents and they all require internet.
Here are some of the qualities I'd like to have:
1. No internet requirement but able to use wifi.
2. ptunes or similar mp3 app that syncs with Rhapsody.
Thanks,
Mario

Hello mars_d11, I regret to inform you Palm Inc. ceased to exist years ago.
There are no more PalmOS phones in existence. You do have the option of searching for another Centro on the internet...p
