Palm centro wont sync epocrates

Hello,
I am having two problems with my palm centro
1. I am trying to download epocrates, via a mac, to my palm centro. The icon shows up but when selected the program is empty. The hotsync message says there is an error in downloading. The centro says it is unable to complete, the installer is missing
2. I want to edit the categories on my contacts. Everytime I try to edit I can get into the edit screen, type in the edit, but the centro re-boots when I hit OK, not saving the edit.

Did these keys ever work?
Have you installed anything lately that corresponds with the timing of the errors?
Since the device is still covered under warranty, I'd take it back to whomever you purchased it through, either Sprint or Palm.  
Note:  Both of them might ask you to Hard Reset the phone to determine whether the problem is caused by software.  Have you tried this yet?

    Do you have windows mobile device center installed(WMDC)? If not download it from here http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/en-us/downloads/microsoft/device-center-download.mspx
    Be sure you download the correct version for your PC. If you have 32bit OS or 64bit OS. To find this out, right click on Computer under start and select properties. Near the middle it should say 32bit or 64bit. If you know you have the correct software. Open up the control panel and go to sync settings. Right click on the partnership you have setup and select delete. On your device go to Start-->Programs-->Activesync-->Menu-->Options tap on Windows PC and select Delete. Then once both are done resetup your partnership. But this time uncheck everything. Then once it is done syncing. Go to Mobile device settings and change content sync settings and select Contact. Click save and let it sync. Do the same for calendar, tasks, and notes but leave the last item checked. So when Contacts are done syncing you go and check Calendar and leave Contacts

  • Palm Centro Media Sync

    Can't get my pics on my Palm Centro to Sync to my desktop. All other data syncs work well.
    Thanks

    The best way is to not sync media rather use an SD card to store pictures. Less stress on you and more free memory for your device.

  • Palm Centro/Outlook Sync

    Hi,
    I have a Verizon Palm Centro, about 2 years old. When I sync using the USB cable, I continually get the message that all databases have synced correctly. However, nothing changes in either my phone or the Outlook on my PC (Windows XP, Outlook 2007).
    This all used to work until a few months ago I started getting messages that one of my databases was not syncing (forget which one it was). This happened shortly after I added ACT! software to my PC, which operates off of Outlook. I called Verizon tech support and was stepped through a "fix". After the fix, I was no longer getting error messages, however I now realize that no syncing was actually taking place, at least not with Outlook. (BTW, I am willing to uninstall ACT! if that will help).
    I need to get this fixed, and have had little luck in getting through on the phone to a Verizon tech support person.
    Please help, and thanks.

    Try these steps to configure your device. 
    Double-click the HotSync icon(located in the System Tray).
     Alternate navigation: Click Start> Programs (All Programs)> Palm> HotSync Manager.
    Select the desired device / profilefrom the HotSync Manager settings formenu.
    Click Connections.
    Ensure USBis checked.
    Click Applications.
    Select the desired Conduitthen click Configure.
    Ensure the desired Actionis selected for the conduit then click OK.
    Synchronize the Files-Updates and synchronizes the data on both the handheld and desktop computer, using the most current information as the standard. This setting is typically used for day-to-day HotSync operations.
    Desktop Overwrites Handheld- Uses the information on the desktop computer to replace any information on the handheld. Typically, this option is used in restoring lost information to a handheld.
    Handheld Overwrites Desktop- Uses the information on the handheld to replace any information on the desktop.
    Do Nothing- Does not synchronize or replace any data on either the handheld or desktop computer.

  • Palm Centro Bluetooth Sync with Vista 64bit

    I just got a Palm Centro and was able to go all the way through configuring both the Palm Centro and the PC to see each other.  I created a virtual COM port (COM5) and selected that port as my Serial Connection.
    That is when it stops working.  Pressing the HotSync button on the Centro gives me the following error...
    Unable to initiate HotSync operation because the port is in use by another application.
    This port was just created, how can it be in use?
    Thanks, John

    View Solution.

    Did you check bluetooth under connections in Hotsync Manager on the PC? Right click the hotsync icon and goto settings, then connections. Is bluetooth there and checked? If not do so.
    Next delete the bluetooth connection on the device and try to recreate it.  You shouldn't need to create the virtual port on a vista system. That step was for older versions of windows that didn't do that automaticaly.

  • Palm Centro - Entourage Sync HELP!

    How do I set up to sync my centro to my entourage? I'm sure someone knows how to do this. HELP!  
    I can get hot sync to go both ways between Palm desktop but I use Entourage for all my contacts and calendar. How do I set this up? I assume it's very basic but I find no conduit install etc to get it working.
    Post relates to: Centro (Sprint)

    It used to be simple with Entourage 2004, all you have to do supposedly was just to install a Microsoft office component called Handheld Sync Installer. But with Entourage 2008, it is is tightly integrated with Apple's Sync services. There is an excelent tutorial guide by Microsoft from this link.

  • Palm Centro Calendar Sync

    Downloaded new update for controlled up on 2 calendar.Nothing helped.Uninstalled.Where can I get an old version and will it load my dataviz document handler,colored calendar and stuff? Help !!! I used my desktop allot.
    Post relates to: Centro (AT&T)

    Ok, you will need to do a "clean" uninstall of Palm desktop and install Palm desktop 4.1.4e and try that version. That version has the color for the calendar and your docs to go should work but you may need to upgrade to a newer version.
    Click on the following link to the kb.palm.com webpage for the article regarding Palm Desktop 4.1.4e and HotSync Manager (Windows)
    http://www.palm.com/cgi-bin/cso_kbURL.cgi?ID=32991
    Here are the insctuctions for the clean unionstall on Vista.
    You should first make a copy of your data to have just in case something
    happens. You can find your data files by going to Start --> Documents -->
    Palm OS Desktop. Highlight your Palm Desktop username and right click and
    copy. Then go to your PC desktop right click on a blank spot and select paste.
    If this is the first time you are installing Palm desktop and encountering a problem, skip the previous step.
    Now you want to uninstall Palm Desktop and remove everything that has to do
    with Palm Desktop from your computer.
    Go to the following locations on the PC and delete the folders listed below.
    C:\Program Files\Palm or Palm One
    C:\Users\[Vista Login Name]\appdata\local\virtualstore\Program Files\Palm or
    PalmOne
    C:\Users\[Vista Login Name]\appdata
    *Note you may need to view hidden folders to get to appdata. To do that go
    into your control panel and open folder options. Go to view tab and uncheck
    hide hidden files.
    Once this is done you will need to delete some registry keys from your PC Operating System.
    Word of warning, going here and deleting the wrong thing can cause your PC
    from starting up, crashing and deletion of programs and data. If you feel
    you are unsure of yourself, see if you have a friend that can help you or a
    PC technician that you can pay to help you. This procedure will show them everything they need to delete. To make sure we have a good copy of the current registry, we need to do a backup of the Registry.
    Go to start on the PC, in the search field type "regedit.exe" without quotes.
    Highlight COMPUTER, go to File --> Export. Should pop up with a Save As box.
    Current location is fine, should be in My Documents or save to a location you will remember. In the file name on the bottom type "backup[todaysdate]" i.e. backup07072008. Next, the hard part.
    The easiest way to make sure your working with the correct key, highlight the key i.e. palm quick install, and press delete on your keyboard. It will ask you, are you sure. Say yes. Do the same thing for all keys below.
    If you make a mistake, stop what you are doing. And call a PC technician.
    BUT do not turn off your computer.
    The reg keys are as follows (Note: some of theses reg keys will not be here
    but if they are delete them)
    * HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\U.S. Robotics\Palm Quick Install
    * HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\U.S. Robotics\PalmOne File Transfer
    * HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\U.S. Robotics\Pilot Desktop
    * HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Palm
    * HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Palm, Inc.
    * HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\PalmDesktopAutorun
    * HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\palmOne
    * HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\PalmSource
    * HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\PalmSource or anything else that says palm
    Next reboot your computer.
    Then reinstall your Palm desktop from the CD and do a hotsync. If it asks
    you for a username, enter the name that is on your device in the upper right corner of the hotsync screen. Do not sync during this process. There is a chance the data will be deleted from the device if you sync during the install.
    Once you have version 6.2 uninstalled, install 4.1.4e and do not sync during the install. After you complete the install of 4.1.4e, set the conduits in hotsync manager to handheld overwrites desktop. This will perform a sync one-way to the PC from the handheld.
    Once you have the data in Palm desktop, use the export function in Palm desktop. Here is a procedure for exporting your data.
    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.

  • Palm Lifedrive wont sync. PC doesn't recognize USB

    Hi,
    I'm having a problem hotsyncing my lifedrive. It's worked fine up until now, but all of a sudden, it won't connect. The PC isn't recognizing that I've plugged the cradle in through my USB ports. I've tried this on 2 computers now and still no luck. The metal connectors look clean and dirt free, so I'm at a loss as to what the problem might be.
    Thanks in advance for the help,
    TristanD
    Post relates to: LifeDrive

    I've tried the hotsync guides and still nothing. However, I decided to try to set up a wireless sync, and it worked like a charm. Since my cradle is still not syncing, I'm leaning towards a physical problem with the connections. Should I talk to Palm to try to get it replaced?

  • Palm Zire wont Sync with Address Book or iCal

    I just got my Dad to switch from his PC to a MacBook and we can't get his Palm Zire 31 to syncronize with Address Book or iCal.
    Tiger 10.4.8
    HotSync 3.2
    iSync 2.3
    I went thru the setup articles and compared the settings to the ones on my Powermac and I don't see any differences. The HotSync log gives iSync Conduit errors: Could not create database Address DB, NULL from rendezvous.
    This is not impressing him.

    Well,
    I think we have this handled. After losing all of his data and using an old back up file, we are getting somewhere. I did a hard-reset and then synced it. I have his Palm and MacBook communicating. Now, to get that dumb device to play mp3's like it was supposed to.

  • Can't sync Palm Centro and Outlook 2007/Windows 7 - please help!

    Hello,
    I've never posted on a forum, but I'm at my wits end...!  I've been trying to get my Palm Centro to sync Contacts/Calendar/Memos to Outlook 2007 on my new laptop for a week now with no success.  It used to sync just fine to my old computer with Windows XP and Outlook 2003.  Then that computer crashed (my Outlook files were backed up on an external harddrive).  I received my new computer with Windows 7 XP (32-bit) and Outlook 2007.  I've downloaded the Palm Desktop 6.2, Windows 2007 Conduit, and Software Update 1.03 (Windows installer) for Centro for Verizon. 
    When I sync my phone to my new Outlook, it completes all 12 steps, but does not load Contacts/Calendar/Memos to Outlook.  This is a list of the error messages:

    I have been using this and it works great.  On their site you can choose the phone and the particular program you need to sync with and choose which you way you want to sync.
    Hope this helps
    Sorry hat, the Centro has absolutely nothing in common with a webOS device!  It runs PalmOS.  Nice of you to reply with your suggestion though! 
    @SyncHelpPlease:  OLERR errors are covered in this Palm KB article:
    http://kb.palm.com/wps/portal/kb/common/article/31167_en.html
    Something I noticed in your post - you installed Palm 6.2.2 AND the 2007 conduit.  Palm Desktop 6.2.2. has the 2007 conduits built into it already, and the patch is not needed.  Whether this is the cause of your problems, I'm not sure, but I've fielded several posts of the same issue where the user did the same thing you did!
    I'd suggest doing a clean uninstall, and reinstall of Palm Desktop 6.2.2 only. 
    I admit, I do not use Outlook, nor Win7, so I'm giving you my best guess at a way to solve your problem.  Hopefully, this may lead to a solution!

  • How to set "from" field in Versamail 4.0.1 EAS / Palm Centro Verizon

    I have set up a Palm Centro to sync via Activesync using Versamail 4.01.00. All seems to be working normally but there doesn't seem to be a place to set the senders proper first and last name as the sender. When I send an outbound message the recipient receives the message from login "username" instead of "Firstname Lastname". Anyone know where to change this?

  • Syncing out of nowhere.....wont turn on now (Palm Centro)

     I've had this phone for 2 years in begining of december.
    Last night my phone started to automatically sync (hotsync) with out even being connected to the computer. It stopped then I put my phone to charge. I check the phone this morning and it wont turn on, even when connected to the charger, but the little red light on top left corner turn on. Not only has this happened to my phone, but my parents phone aswell (they have the same phone)
     I took it to the sprint store not even 2 hours ago and they told me I have to pay $119 to for them to replace it. That is more than what i payed for the phone in the first place.
    Any Help?
    I am truely fed up with Sprint and Palm, or atleast the Palm Centro for that matter. I had a blackberry pearl with Cingular (now AT&T) and I was extremely happy with it. Switched to sprint, few months later, i hated. Had no service in the middle of the city, freezes, shuts off out of no where etc. exact oppsite with att&t
    Post relates to: Centro (Sprint)

    There is no reason to put it in DFU mode, a reset should work.  Although, without a working power button it is not possible to reset the device.
    Sounds like it is time to replace the damaged device.
