Palm Desktop 4.1 for Mac OS & iQue 3600?

I have a Garmin iQue 3600 which I'm trying to HotSync with my existing Palm Desktop 4.1 (Mac OS 10.4.11).  Right now it only syncs the Memo Pad.  But I also need it to sync the Address Book, To Do List & Date Book.  Over in the Brighthand forum they said to reload Palm Desktop & then Hotsync & it should fix the problem.  But I can't find my original disk with Palm Desktop.  I looked at Palm.com and the downloads for Desktop 4.1 are for Mac OS9 or Desktop 4.1 Treo/Mac OS X and none mention Garmin iQue.  I'm so confused! Please help!  Thank you!

Have you tried the Garmin website?
Palm doesn't make the device, and they have a large download section there (including Palm Desktop for Garmin).

  • Palm Desktop 4.0 for Mac Fails to Install

    I just downloaded Palm Desktop for Mac 4.0 -- actually file name is MacDesktop_40_TV.sit -- but it fails to install. Double clicking on the *.sit file creates a program file named Palm Desktop Installer with a creation date of Sep 17, 2002. When I run the installer, the process aborts at file 749 of 791 (file UPD107). Retrying gives the same result.
    Have others had the same problem? Is it a problem with the *.sit expansion process? Is the installer or the Desktop program incompatible with OS X 10.4.11? Note: I did try to establish a Chat Support Session with Palm tech support, but it asked me to download/install a Java RE plugin, and clicking that download button never started the download, and searching for the plugin on the Palm website came up with nothing....
    Thanks in advance for any help you can provide. 
    BTW, I have an ancient Handspring Visor Edge (Palm OS 3.5.2H2.0) that I've been syncing with Palm Desktop running on Windows XP under Parallels. I'm hoping I can get my data into the Mac environment so I can eventually transfer my data to a new iPod touch. Any additional advice you might have on that process would be welcome.

    I had an identical experience when I first got my handheld - the palm software wouldn't install on my iMac properly - the same error came up every time, and while it had successfully installed the desktop, hotsync manager was sadly missing. I spent hours playing with it to no avail, and the only solution I found was using it on my macbook running 10.5x (as opposed to 10.2.8). However, the date on the installer (2002) reflects the last time it was updated, which means that it should run with no difficulty on any machine since then. The .sit compression has nothing to do with it - it is one of the most common compression formats for the macintosh platform. It might help if you posted the exact error message you got, but a fairly common fix is to repair disk permissions for your hard drive in disk utility.
    Hope this helps

  • Help with very slow old palm desktop 1.0 for MAC

    No device
    Hi- I am a happy user of Palm m515, and hot synch it to a very old Mac that runs palmpilot desktop 1.0 , cause I like the printouts. Recently, it would start to  open the desktop, but it wouldn't open, I think due to out of memory. I purged calendar and todo from my handheld (which I had not done for years), and hot synced it. Address book & memos synced normally, and the syncing of todo's took hours, and I'm not sure it was successful. However, afterwords, I was able to re-open the desktop, and it works, but it is painfully slow, basically not functional.
    I realize this is legacy stuff, but if there is anyone out there who has suggestions, I'd greatly appreciate it.
    And, I have an old iMac G5 that I am about to retire and buy a new iMac, and if anyone has suggestions for replacing the handheld with one that will run a good todo/task program (and recommendation for that one), also much appreciated.
    And if there is a way for me to transfer the data from handheld m515 to my new iMac?
    Thanks

  • Problem installing Palm Desktop 4.0 on Mac (Intel CPU + OS 10.5.6)

    Hello,
    When installing Palm Desktop 4.0 on my Mac (MacBookPro= Intel CPU + OS 10.5.6), the installation fails when trying to install the last files (.prc files). I cannot find any installation log to know what the problem exactly is. If I try anyway to run the software, Palm Desktop seems to run OK, but HotSync Manager fails (error related to "PPC-lib").
    The problem is I am still using my old but fine Visor, so I don;t think I can install a more recent version of Palm Desktop.
    Thanks for any help  !

    Hello Walter and welcome to the Palm forums.
     For such a new Mac, I'm fairly certain, you are going to have to use Palm Desktop 4.2.1 Rev D or later (I believe that Rev D is the latest) for Mac OS X.  You can download Palm Desktop 4.2.1 Rev D for Mac OS from the Palm website.  You may need to pick a newer Palm handheld to gain access to the download link.  If that is the case, pick the Tungsten T5, it should require Palm Desktop 4.2.1 Rev D.

  • Will this version of XP Home work for Parallels Desktop 3.0 for Mac?

    For Christmas, I received Parallels Desktop 3.0 for Mac because I need Windows XP for certain reasons. First, I have several neat programs that only run on DOS and second, I miss MS Paint (I hate Seashore or Piantbrush) and Finally, I like MS Movie Maker better then iMovie. When I opened it, I got furious because found out that XP Home doesn't come with it, so I must purchase it online. I really need XP Home with SP2, and not XP Pro. I looked in the manuel and it says I cannot use OEM copies, but I looked at another discussion that said OEM copies were OK. Now I'm very confused, so I decided to make this post hoping that I can get a good final answer. Here is another problem, I only have $100 to spend because I'm saving up for a bigger gift that has nothing to do with computers. I want to know which copy will work.

    If you know a better copy under $100.00 that will be even more compatible with Parallels, tell me.
    Thank You and I hope you can answer my questions.

    You have an intel based mac. that is one particular Original Equiptment Manufacturer. Now, what parallels does is build a vitual machine inside your mac to make it OEM compatible inside the mac Operating System to make Windows XP Home to work within the mac environment. Once it is fully installed, you can use mac and windows XP home together at the same time. You can also install XP home in mac boot and use it separate from mac as well to do your work separate of being on mac ss well. carefully read the instructions and the key part again is putting in P.T, for it to work properly.

  • Migrating Palm Desktop from Windows to MAC

    I have just ordered a MAC and will receive it within the next few days.
    I need to know how to transfer my present data to the MAC. I hotsync with the Palm Desktop as that allows me to password-protect files, which Outlook doesn't. What are the steps involved in preparing and performing the first hotsync on MAC?? Also, I use "Documents to Go", will this application just tra sfer to the MAC? Thanks for any help.

    Hi Bruno! Are you Portuguese or Brazilian?
    Do you have an iPod, which you could use as a transfer way? If not I would recommend you to use the "Back up to disc" feature. Then just insert your DVD's in your new MacBook and import your library.
    If you want to use your iPod, then read this:
    First sync your content to the iPod.
    If you have purchased songs from the iTunes Music Store, then those are pretty easy to transfer to your computer. You'll just need to follow [this instructions|http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305465].
    All your other songs (for example, those ripped from your CD's), you'll need to use any 3rd party program to transfer them to your iTunes library!
    Use one of this programs (all of them will preserve your metadata):

  • Palm desktop appearance different in Mac than Windows

    My Palm Desktop looks quite different after the software was loaded onto my new iMac. I am using a Z22 and have grown to love my Palm very much and rely on it daily. One feature that I use quite often is the NOTES tab for Contacts. The new desktop on the Mac does not have a tab for notes.  The fields for entering data forcontacts is also quite limited.
    Is there a way for my Palm Desktop on my iMac to look the same as it did in Windows? 
    Post relates to: Palm Z22

    If you really want someone to blame, then the people who own palm should be somewhere in the firing line, as they have halted any further development on the mac platform despite palm OS once being considered the natural companion of the mac. If you notice in the account setup for palm forums there is as yet still not even an option to choose mac osx 10.5 leopard, and the desktop software is written for PPC computers as opposed to intel ones. If you have an intel mac therefore, it will run really quite slowly.

  • Installing Palm Desktop & Missing Sync to Mac-Questions

    Here are the steps from the Mark/Space webpage for install Palm Desktop (PD) and Missing Sync (MS) to my new Mac (I just converted from PC 4 days ago):
    "Note: In order for the Missing Sync to work properly with Palm Desktop, Palm Desktop must be installed PRIOR to installing Missing Sync for Palm OS.
    1) Install Palm Desktop 4.2.X
    To download Palm Desktop 4.2.X, please go to: http://www.palm.com/us/support/macintosh/mac_desktop.html
    2) Install Missing Sync for Palm OS Version 5.1.X or higher
    3) If you have previously synchronized with Palm Desktop, your user name will be automatically added to the list of handhelds.
    4) Configure the Palm Desktop conduits and make certain that other PIM conduits, such as Mark/Space Conduits for Contacts, Events and Tasks are not enabled."
    I have about 40 3rd party apps on my Treo, few of which have a desktop component (conduit): Adobe, Avantgo, DocsToGo, Easy Schedule (United Airlines), eReader, MobiPocket, WorldMate, Vindigo and Zagat. I believe that all except for MobiPocket will work with Mac.
    However, what do I do during the first sync, when I want to get my PIMs syncing and PIM data migrating from my Treo 680 the the PD on the Mac? I assume that this might work:
    1. When do I delete all Treo 680 3rd party apps, before I sync the PIMs or does it matter as long as I turn off the 3rd party conduits?
    2. Only sync the PIMs first until I see that they are working. Do this with conduit set to handheld overwrites desktop.
    3. Get Mac-compatible apps from the makers, install them on the Mac and, using MS, sync and install them on my Treo. This entails correctly setting the conduits and following MS's instructions when the process is a little tricky (ie, Vindigo, Avantgo). I don't want to update any of these apps via wireless so I'm hoping that Missing Sync can do the syncing job for all of them.
    Zagat isn't on their supported apps list but Zagat does indicate that it works with Mac. I don't know what that means.
    Does anyone have any comments. Thanks.

    Since Palm Desktop and Missing Sync are not Apple products you'd probably be better off posting your question on the Missing Sync forums:

  • Palm Desktop 6.2 for Centro stopped working on Vista

    I was having trouble and simply reinstalled, but to no avail.  It installs then, when I go to hotsync it gets stuck everytime at the calendar.  Also, when I try to open the desktop program it states "invalid argument encountered"  then eventually it says the program has stopped working.  Can someone lead me step by step through a solution? 
    Post relates to: Centro (AT&T)

    Dana,
    Sounds like what was happening to me a few months back, right after I got my Centro.  I had a Palm Tungsten C before and already had Palm Desktop installed.  The new desktop installed over it.  I had a lot of trouble (much, much more so than with the original Tungsten install) with the phone.  I don't know for sure that is what created the synch problem, but after most of a day spent searching this forum I found a thread that appeared to deal with this problem.  It turned out it was some corrupted calendar files on my phone.  The post described how to download a program called "DbFixit".  It seems like there was a free version and then there was a more complete version at a small cost.  Search the forum to find more info on where to get it.  After downloading it to my Centro it ran through and reported on all the corrupted calendar entries.  I think it had an option to delete the corrupted ones automatically but I didn't trust this, so I wrote them all down as the program reported them.  Once that was done everything seemed to work.  I don't remember if after the clean up you are supposed to have the desktop overwrite the phone or vice-versa or just let them synch.  I think the instructions were on the DbFixit website.  Hope this helps.

  • Parallels Desktop 3.0 for Mac - VMware Fusion - Apple Boot Camp?????

    Which is the BEST for running Windows XP Pro???? I am hearing conflicting reports about using these programs as to which one to use. I need to run Windows XP about 80% of my day in a network environment but I need to be able to quickly switch back to Leopard. PLEASE HELP!!!

    Windows on Intel Macs
    There are presently several alternatives for running Windows on Intel Macs.
    1. Install the Apple Boot Camp software. Purchase Windows XP w/Service Pak 2 or Vista. Follow instructions in the Boot Camp documentation on installation of Boot Camp, creating Driver CD, and installing Windows. Boot Camp enables you to boot the computer into OS X or Windows.
    2. Parallels Desktop for Mac and Windows XP, Vista Business, or Vista Ultimate. Parallels is software virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
    3. VM Fusionand Windows XP, Vista Business, or Vista Ultimate. VM Fusion is software virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
    4. CrossOver which enables running many Windows applications without having to install Windows. The Windows applications can run concurrently with OS X.
    Note that Parallels and VM Fusion can also run other operating systems such as Linux, Unix, OS/2, Solaris, etc. There are performance differences between dual-boot systems and virtualization. The latter tend to be a little slower (not much) and do not provide the video performance of the dual-boot system.

  • Microsoft Remote Desktop Connection Client for Mac Not Working

    I recently purchased Office 2011 for Mac.  I work at home on my Mac at work on Windows 7.  I also have a work laptop, running Windows 7, that comes home with me.  My goal is to RDC my Mac to the laptop running Windows 7 to reduce desktop clutter, and easily work between machines. 
    I CAN NOT FIGURE OUT how to get Microsoft RDC:mac to connect to my pc. 
    I know that the pc allows remote desktop connections because I often use RDC at work from PC to PC.
    SOME PLEASE HELP!  I have spent hours and hours trying to figure this out and I think it is the time capsule that is causing the problem. 
    My research has found that I have to use port 3389 to get this done.  I am pretty computer savy but when it comes to networking I guess I have no clue.  I have tried just about everything a and can't figure it out. 
    Thanks to anyone that can dedicate some time to configureing my time capsule to allow for RDC.

    I cannot quite put together your whole network..
    I work at home on my Mac at work on Windows 7.  I also have a work laptop, running Windows 7, that comes home with me.  My goal is to RDC my Mac to the laptop running Windows 7 to reduce desktop clutter, and easily work between machines.   
    So this is in local lan.. the PC laptop running win7 and the Mac loaded with RDC software. If this is local lan then the issue is nothing to do with TC.
    That is only if you are trying to connect from work. to home through the router at work and TC at home. On local lan there is no blocking to ports. Are you using the local network IP of the PC Laptop?
    Explain a bit further as it needs a bit more clarification.

  • Parallels Desktop 5.0 for Mac vs Virtual PC

    Hello all!
    I'll be getting a new Macbook Pro this week and will be retiring my iBook G4. On my iBook, I had to run Virtual PC for college. Now, going back to school, I'll need a program to run Windows-based programs. I really didn't like the speed of Virtual PC but but I'm thinking it was because of the memory of the iBook. I'm debating buying Parallels Desktop 5.0 for the new Macbook Pro but if Virtual PC will do the job and not be a pain, I don't want to spend the money. Any suggestions? Thanks

    +*I really didn't like the speed of Virtual PC but but I'm thinking it was because of the memory of the iBook.*+
    Actually, the reason for the performance issue on your iBook is that Virtual PC has to actually emulate an x86 (Intel) processor in software. Emulating an actual processor takes tons more resources. Doing so on an iBook G4 was probably painfully slow.
    Current virtualization options (Parallels, VirtualBox, Fusion) allow the virtual machine to have direct access to the processor that Windows was designed to run on (Intel). In many cases, a virtual machine will run nearly as well as running natively (less 3D acceleration). Also, since Macs now run on Intel processors, you can run Windows natively via BootCamp (which is part of the OS that will be on your new Machine). This will allow you to have the option to boot your machine directly into Windows which would be the same as running Windows on any other PC with similar hardware. I expect, however, if you were used to running Virtual PC on an iBook G4, you'll be happy with any of the virtualization options.

  • Parallel Desktop or Office for Mac?

    Hi all,
    I work heavily on Microsoft Excel in the office, and have been experiencing all the problems while trying to convert my numbers file to Excel or vice versa. I'm seriously considering of installing an Office for Mac to eliminate such problems. But I got a few questions regarding this issue.
    Does the Office for Mac work perfectly in normal Microsoft Windows environment under normal PC? Any issues relating to the conversion so far?
    Also I heard from a Mac seller that by using Parallel Desktop I can install all the windows programme that I like. Does this applies to Microsoft version of Office as well? Will it be working fine in my Mac OS? Or still by using Office for Mac would be a better option?
    Sorry for the stupid questions that I asked, but I really do need some guidance here. Thanks in advance for replying.

    For general use fine, though we have had issues with Excel 2008 conversions to Excel 2003. Is your office using Excel 2003 or 2007 on the Windows side?
    We have also had issues with some "features" when opening existing Excel (ie converting) documents with Excel 2008 and some crashes.
    Also I heard from a Mac seller that by using Parallel Desktop I can install all the windows programme that I like.
    Yes, you will need a copy of Windows.
    Windows XP Home
    Windows XP Professional
    Does this applies to Microsoft version of Office as well?
    It will work fine using either Parallels or VMWare.
    Will it be working fine in my Mac OS? Or still by using Office for Mac would be a better option?
    For "perfect" compatibility then running the Windows version of Office on your Mac is the "best" solution.
    From my experience for 99% of the stuff I need to do either iWork or Office 2008 (even Office 2004) I don't have too many issues.
