Palm Centro won't sync Contacts with Desktop

It seems that a few people have had this problem, and I haven't really seen it answered yet. When I enter new contacts in Palm Desktop, they do not get sync'ed to my Centro. The log will just look like this:
HotSync session completed successfully on 07/25/08 21:47:35
HotSync session started on 07/25/08 21:47:32, and completed in 3.0 seconds
To Do List synchronized successfully
Duration: 0.4 seconds
Memo Pad synchronized successfully
Duration: 0.4 seconds
Media synchronized successfully
Duration: 1.6 seconds
In other words, Address Book does not even show up here. I deleted my Hotsync ID on the Centro and changed it in Desktop, and that seemed to sync everything back up again. But the problem still exists when I try to add a new contact. (I also did a hard reset, and then everything sync'ed over as well... and now I'm back to ground zero.)O Adding a new contact on the Palm likewise does not sync back to the Desktop.
I have checked the conduits on both the Palm and in HotSync manager 1000 times, and they are set to synchronize properly.
I do not use Exchange, although I did unsuccessfully try to set it up once with my work e-mail (never actually worked, and I've since deleted the VersaMail account). I noticed this problem after the recent firmware update, but that's not to say that it's the culprit.
Any help or insight would be most appreciated!

Once you have successfully synced to an exchange server the only way to completely remove it from the device is a hard reset, one thing you might want to try is a program called NVbackup, back your device hard reset and then do a selective restore and sync back just your contacts, this should then completely remove the exchange account and help you keep your contacts, you may want to manually jot down your contacts just in case though.
For instructions on a hard reset please see http://kb.palm.com solution id 887

Help!! Can't sync contacts with Desktop Software

Has anyone figured out how to get around the error message that says you can't sync contacts because it can't access the database? I have un-installed PocketMac and the desktop software, and then re-installed it, but it still will not sync. My address book also doesn't show up in the applications. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

Iphone4 won't sync contact with Outlook/Exchange 2007 - can't afford to lose these contacts either

Hello,
I have a user who has been using an iPhone 4 for over a year now, and has built up a large list of Contacts on the device. Unfortunately, unlike every other iPhone user, his Contacts have not been sync'ing with Outlook.
I know I can go into "Settings", "Mail, Contacts, Calendar", Contacts and "Default Account" and change it here. However, I do not want to lose any of these iPhone Contacts. I would like to be able to back them up, and then sync them into Outlook.
Can someone please advise on the safest steps to do this?
Thank you,
Liam

A couple of weeks ago a similar question was posted and a member responded with the following link
http://www.iphonebackupextractor.com/
I haven't tried it since we force encrypt our backups through IPCU, but is looks intriguing and like it might work for you. According to their web page they export backed up contacts to a csv file so they could be imported into the Outlook client....hope this helps.

My 3gs won't sync contacts with outlook 2007

No matter what i try, i can't get my 3gs to sync my contacts with outlook 2007.
Anybody had this problem and figure it out?

What have you tried so far?
Which iOS is your phone running on?
Basic troubleshooting steps.
1) Connect your phone to iTunes; click on your phone's name; Select "sync conatcts with outlook" from the other window.
2) Make sure your outlook is configured to a mail account. If you don't use mail account on outlook, configure it anyhow.

Will a Palm Centro or Blackberry sync with iCal?

Will a Palm Centro or Blackberry sync with iCal?

Greetings,
Yes on both but you would need software to do the sync for you.
If you are running Mac OS X 10.6.x, Palm is no longer updating their sync software (http://kb.palm.com/wps/portal/kb/na/centro/centro/unlocked/solutions/article/332 19_en.html). You would need a sync solution like: http://www.markspace.com/
Blackberry has their own sync software which you can get from them.
Cheers!

ZEN MICRO WON'T SYNC CONTACTS NOW .....

My Zen Micro won't sync contacts from Outlook Li've now (when it did before) .... get an error message:
"CTSync
X Unspecified error"
I'm using Outlook Li've (2003) that is linked to my hotmail e-mail; like I said, everything sync'ed fine before!
I've tried all the new downloads, etc.
I've also formatted the player several times.
I can still syn music, tasks, and calendar.
How do I resolve this issue ... no one from Creative Labs has been able to provide any assistance with the issue(s).

FernIe, I have the exact same problem, although now my Zen Micro won't turn on at all via the switch.
My Zen Micro is 5 months old and its only been over the past few weeks I've been having problems. It started with having to hold the switch in the power on position for a least 30 secs and trying it at least 5-0 times before the player would turn on, and having to remove the battery to turn it off. Now, not matter how many times I try the switch or how long i hold it for, the player won't turn on.
The battery is fully charged and I have never had problems with the headphone jack, and I haven't dropped it or done any damage to it that I think could be causing it. I'm having to turn it on by plugging it into my computer through the USB cable and then unlpugging it once its on, it's a pain doing this and means if I want to use it later I have to keep it on, muted, in my bag all day with the lock turned on (that end of the switch works) then once its turned off I can't turn it on again until I get near a computer again.
I've searched the discussions and knowledge base but haven't found an answer. I've just emailed the support team and I'm waiting for their response, would be interested to know what they've told you.
Just letting you know your not alone and I feel your pain!

Typekit won't sync fonts with my Adobe ID

Typekit won't sync fonts with my Adobe ID. Any solution? I've selected to use fonts on Typekit on my desktop, but each time I have to re-link my Adobe ID, and the fonts don't sync. I have the Creative Cloud app running. Any help really appreciated.

I'm sorry that you ran into trouble with this, azuki602. We have your email in Typekit Support ([email protected]), and will reply there shortly with some questions about your account.

Nothing in my "Sync Contacts with" list

I recently noticed that my contacts were not being sync. On investigation,I see that my Sync Contact with list is empty and so is the Sync calendars list and also the sync e-mail account. I am sure it is something it have done as it was working until a few days ago. Any ideas anybody?

Welcome to the forums
You have a few options available to you to make this easier. Depending on your desktop manager version and your computer's OS, you can import/sync contacts with the applications in this kb article: http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB14730
Google sync can also do the same, but it is not included in the list. You need a google account and have to download the google sync app.
Hope that helps.

Syncing contacts with groups from Torch to Mac

We have a BlackBery Torch, the latest operating system for Apple (OSX Lion), the latest update of BlackBerry Desktop software and the latest update on the Torch.
When we perform a sync from the Torch, it syncs all contacts but without the groups. How do you sync contacts with groups? To clarify, the contacts are in groups on the BlackBerry.
Thanks!

Anyone ever experience syncing contacts with groups on a Mac?

My iPhone 5 ios7, won't sync music with itunes 11.1.2.32

My iPhone 5 ios7.0.3, won't sync music with itunes 11.1.2.32.
The Sync starts and finsihes but no changes are made to the content on the iphone. No files transfer. Tried both wifi and cable sync.

Sorry, but this doesn't work either. Thank you for the response though.
I originally tried the Manually Manage Music and Videos and even though I selected what I wanted to copy and then clicked the Sync button.....nothing gets copied over. I then tried copying over my entire library (and I expected the phone to explode since my library is HUGE) and clicked the Sync button....nothing got copied over.
I have uninstalled iTunes, reinstalled iTunes (and lost half my library thank you Apple).
I have deleted my iPhone backup.
I have updated my iTunes (not that there were any new updates).
I have updated my iPhone (not that there were any new updates).
I have changed and tested every single setting, every which way possible and NOTHING works.
I can sync movies, pictures, apps - no problem whatsoever. But music? Forget it.
I hate the iPhone and I won't recommend it to ANYONE. All I wanted was an all-in-one device to make my life easier and this is NOT IT! This should not be this hard and as far as I'm concerned, Apple failed BIG TIME.

How do I stop Google from attempting to sync contacts with my iMac?

Hey folks, i'm new to Mac and keep getting this annoying sync notice that if I allow Google Contants to sync it will change pretty much all my contacts. First off, I'm not really sure what contacts it's trying to sync with. Is it trying to sync with my iCloud contacts? i don't think i have any contact info saved on my hard disk. Second, i have searched the discussion threads about this topic and see posts saying i need to go to Address Book > Preferences > and uncheck Google Sync....but the only Address Book i am aware of is the app labeled "Contacts" which holds everything from my iCloud account. Is Address Book a separate app/database?

I don't know if this helps much, but Address Book was basically the same application in a previous version of the Mac OS. Folks still seem to use the terms interchangably though. Similarly, Calendar used to be "iCal."
I believe syncing contacts with Google or iCloud is an either/or proposition - you can't do both. When you sync with either, a copy is saved to your Mac for faster access (like a web browser's cache). I believe there's still an option to save contacts exclusively to your Mac (HD), but I don't think it's either preferred or occurs by default if you have an account such as Gmail/google or iCloud already set up.
I've never played with preferences in Contacts (Address Book), but I do have both google and iCloud accounts associated with my Mac. Under System Preferences:Mail, Contacts & Calendars, you can specify what accounts do on your Mac. If you have multiple accounts set up, a list will appear on the left side. As you select each one, a list of check boxes appear to the right for each service you want to associate with that account. For example, I have an iCloud account for mail, calendars, contacts, and Safari (among others). I have a Gmail account for mail, although it gives me the option of using this account for calendars, etc. For Gmail, the only item I have checked is mail. It's never asked me if I wanted to sync my addresses with Google.
I hope this helps... at least a little. If nothing else, I hope I've solved the "Address Book" mystery ;-)

I hate Apple maps, will Marvericks give me option to sync contacts with google maps?

Will Mavericks let me sync contacts with google maps or require sync to Apple Maps as does i0s7. I hate Apple maps.

I have exactly the same issue. I updraged my iphone4 to iOS 5.0.1 and iTunes to version 10.5.2.11. I'm also running Windows7, but 32bit.
And I can also confirm this used to work both ways.
Good thing is that the iTunes backup and restore kept the new iPhone contacts on my device during the upgrade. But they are still not syncing to google.
So the bad news is that its broken and has been for some time now.
anyone?
