Palm Desktop by Access

I installed the Palm Desktop by Access with its HotSync application because it was listed a while back as an upgrade to my existing Desktop software.  It seems to work fairly well, but now I can no longer HotSync my Outlook account.  My Palm is a Tungsten T3.  I still would like to view my emails on my Palm after I synch.  Any suggestions?

Hello Fisroy and welcome to the Palm forums.
Palm Desktop 6.2.2 and earlier can sync with either itself (Palm Desktop) or Microsoft Outlook on a Windows PC.  You will not be able to sync your PIM data to Thurnderbird.  If a third-party solution exists, I am not aware of it.

  • I get a "Palm desktop by access applicatio​n has stopped working" message when switching to the Month calendar view.

    I have a Z22 and am running Access version 6.2.2 on a PC with Vista.
    When I move from Day, Week or Year to Monthly view in the Calendar, I get the "Palm Desktop by Access Application has stopped working" (and then the Windows message saying they are checking for a solution, which they never seem to find).
    Does any one know 1) how to fix this and 2) what is the cause ?  Am I running old software which I need to update ?
    Thanks.

    Thank you, aeisha_anis for the steps to correct this problem.  I verified that I must have corrupted calendar data as the PALM Desktop does come up and work when I follow your first 4 steps and remove the data from it.  I can't, however, get through the importing step at the end of your instructions.  I've tried a few times and am afraid I may have messed up the data file as it now is only showing a datebook. mdb and a datebook.bak file under the DateBook folder I copied to my desktop, but no datebook.dab folder as it was showing before and I never did find the datebook.dat file you mentioned.  I still have all of my current calendar data on my Palm Centro but I can't get it to sync with the Palm Desktop without getting the "Palm Desktop by ACCESS Application has stopped working" message.  Do you have any ideas on how to fix this problem?  Thanks much!

  • Month view off "Date" app on Palm Desktop by ACCESS 6.2.2

    I have Windows XP (Home) with Palm Desktop by ACCESS 6.2.2.
    I also have a Palm Z22 and a HP TouchPad.
    My problem is with the Palm Desktop. In the "Date" application it will not display the Month view. There is no problem with the Day or Week view, but when I click on the Month view,
    a screen pops up that says "Application has encountered a problem and needs to close".
    It then says "Send report" or "Don't send".
    After clicking on either of these, the Palm Desktop window closes.
    I do not know where to retrieve the "Send Report" information if it has been sent.
    Any help would be appreciated as the Month view is very helpful when planning future appointments or activities.
    THANK YOU VERY MUCH....

  • Palm Desktop by Access 6.2.2: Palm IIIxe won't sync to WinXP but Zire Z22 will

    No device
    Palm IIIxe with OS 3.5.3 and Z22 with OS Garnet 5.4.9 and Palm Desktop by Access 6.2.2 on a WinXP SP2 box. Z22 appears to sync correctly and the IIIxe SAYS it's syncing but the Palm desktop account is blank.
    I think I need to roll back to an earlier version of Palm desktop, e.g. 4.14. If so, can I first uninstall 6.2.2?
    The Palm support website says, "Do not un-install previous versions of Palm Desktop. If you have an existing version of Palm Desktop on your computer, leave it as-is, and install this version on top of it."
    Thanks for any help.
    John

     Your Palm IIIxe wont show the pims because hotsync 6.2.2 only allows the newer pim format. There is a free addon application from Pimlico called PalmHotsyncSetup that may allow you to sync with it.  PalmHotsyncSetup

  • Palm Desktop by Access won't install in Windows 7

    Guidance please! After upgrading Sony VGC VA1 from XP to Win 7, I cannot install a newly downloaded version of Palm Desktop by Access . I get error messages that  ...Palm Desktop by ACCESS.msi cannot be found. Uninstalling ihe previous version hasn't helped.

    Great!  Glad to help.  
    AFAIK, there is no such version - 6.2.2 is the latest Access made before ceasing support for the program.
    MicroSoft has had a typo on their support site for a long time now.  Is this the version number you are referring to?

  • "...wizard was interrupted before Palm desktop by Access could be completely installed..."

    When I attempt to install Palm Desktop 6.2 by running PalmDesktopWin62.exe everything seems to go fine until the "Configuring Registry" starts.  Then I get a Microsoft Windows message that says: "... The wizard was interrupted before Palm desktop by Access could be completely installed. ...".  Then the installation stops and the installation does not happen.
    If it matters I'm using Windows Vista Home Premium.  And before I attempted the installation, I: uninstalled my previous versions of the Palm Desktop using the uninstall feature from the CD installation disk, deactivated my virus protection, shut down Windows Defender, and set the PalmDesktopWin62.exe compatibility mode to the "Windows XP (Service Pack 2)" option.
    Does anybody know how to fix this problem?

    Have you tried just running it "normally"?  How about disabling your AntiVirus software temporarily during the installation?
    At this point you may need to do a "Clean Uninstall" and some registry edits before trying again:

  • Palm Desktop by Access will not sycn with Android using CompanionLink

    I formerly used a Palm Treo but I am now using a Droid phone.  I have been using CompanionLink to sync the info between my Droid and the Palm Desktop, but recently experienced some problems with the Palm Desktop.  It began with Palm Desktop not opening and giving me the error message, "Palm Desktop by Access application has stopped working."  I was unable to perform a sync, so I uninstalled Palm and then reinstalled it.  I can now open Palm Desktop and sync my Droid with it; of course since I did a reinstall, all the info was gone from Palm Desktop.  I performed a sync, and the message on the CompanionLink box says indicates it was successful, but only a few days worth of the calendar and none of the other information appears in Palm Desktop.
    Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I can get Palm Desktop working correctly again so that it shows all the information I am trying to migrate there from my phone and will sync properly in the future?
    Thank you.

    Just in case it is not clear...  that post was made after I bought the bluetooth adapter and tried following the advice provided in the Vista 64 Hotsync solution found! post.  Again-- my statement of not working is for the following reasons:
    1) my PC tells me that the sychronization completed with errors.
    2) when I look at the log that the Backup sychronization aborted.
    3) It almost invariably tells me that it Failed to backup 1 file(s) and that file is "NetworkProfiles2" through a "Protocol Error: Unknown error. (6410)"
    4) many of my contacts (over half) duplicate during this synchronization.
    5) many of my appointments (over half) duplicate during this synchronization.
    The information about creating a virtual serial port on my PC comes from my actual palm itself.  The palm info is in the HotSynch verbage and it tells me to contact my computer manufacturer.  In doing so however they have no idea how to do this and Palm does not either.  I am still working with HP on trying to resolve that part of it but I am thinking from the hours of research that Palm wants me to create another COM port but again the help I am finding on this is beyond my pay grade so to speak...  you can check out the following link and try to help me if you like:
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms885792.aspx
    So... any ideas my friend?  It appears that some Vista 64-bit users are having success with a bluetooth synch but I have tried emailing those that claim to have been able to do this with no luck.  I am not having any luck (I hope my outline above is clearer)-- and no one has seemed to had any luck recently.
    I would love to make this work-- I bought this phone for this functionality.

    Hello...

    Anyone able to help me out on this?
    Is there an additional patch of some sort to download?

  • Address book from Palm Desktop by Access is missing on computer!

    Please help - My address book from my Palm Desktop by access is GONE - I can find only a "address.mdb" file, but no updated .aba file - Is there a way to restore this file or find a backup? I cannot imagine how it just disappeared! I no longer use the Zire handheld as it broke, please help!
    Thank you

    If Thunderbird will accept .csv or .tab file formats you can export the data in those formats from PD. Use the following procedure to export 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.

  • Error 1714: The Older Verison of Palm Desktop by ACCESS Cannot be Removed

    Hi Folks:
    Does anybody know what specific registry keys, files or directories must be cleaned up for this error to go away when installing Palm Desktop 6.2?  
    Note that I had a previous version 4.1.4 that got damaged.   I've run Windows Install Clean-up as well as CCleaner, but neither seems to fix this problem.  I've also search through the registry trying to find any lingering "palm" key, and nuke those.
    Thanks,

    Hi Aeisha:
    Oddly no, although I uninstalled PD 4.1.4 because several weeks ago I started getting a spurious error message that the PD was unable to read my configuration, etc.  I don't recall if I have saved the error.
    I will read the KB article and respond here.
    Interestingly, I did install the PD 4.0.1 for Hypervisor.  I gather it uses a different installer than those used by 4.1.4 and/or 6.2.

    There is an error with Palm Desktop. The issue is in a month before or a month after you have an event that spans overnight. To correct you would need to look for this event(s) and delete and recreate it so it does not span overnight.

    I thought I was just unloading an upgrade, for my Palm Tungsten E desktop software, as I unzipped and executed this compressed file.
    ALL MY PERSONAL DATA IS GONE.  Contact and Calendar.  I cannot find the data in the Wastebasket.  I cannot find any ARCHIVED Palm FILES.  HOW can this be?  How can it have LOST all my years of existing Data?  Please, please can anyone help me to restore all this invaluable personal data?

    I've used PALM software since 1995, about, for Pete's sake!  Nothing like this I though, COULD ever happen?!

    What is the OS of your computer? Windows or MAC? I see you stated "wastebasket" is this referring to the "Trash" on a MAC?
    Do you still have your data on the handheld? If you do, you could change the hotsync conduits to handheld overwrites desktop and then sync.

  • Palm Desktop 6.2 crashing on launch with Vista

    I've been using Desktop 6.2 with Vista for several months.  There seems to have been some bad old data on my TX as Desktop crashes when I go to month view in the datebook for August 2008 and earlier, but otherwise fine.
    Starting last week, the application will not fully open with a box stating "Palm Desktop by Access has stopped working" within 1/2 second hitting open.  I've been able to hotsync with no problem and no change.  I removed the application and reinstalled after re-downloading from Palm.  I've also tried logging on as an administrator with no help.
    Anyone have any suggestions?  Many thanks.

    I've run into the problem before but it's either been bad data or events spanning midnight. Usually in the month before or after the month that locks up the Palm desktop. You might want to check Sept and Nov for any events that span midnight.

  • Can't Open New Palm Desktop On My PC

    I downloaded the new update for the Palm Desktop for Vista users. It worked fine since I downloaded it, except for a WI-FI problem that I'm still trying to correct. Just yesterday, I cannot open Palm Desktop. When I try to open it on my PC, I get the following message, "Palm Desktop by Access  application has stopped working". This happened after I installed some music from my PC to my T/X. I don't think I did anything else. I can still Hotsync, I just can't open Palm Desktop. I thought of re-installing Pal Desktop, I even down loaded the ZIP installation file, but I thought better and will wait to see if anyone has any advice.

    Post relates to: Palm TX

    I solved my own problem. Not sure exactly which step did it, but it worked. By reading all of the Help Forums along with the Windows Vista Problem Report and Solutions, I was able to determine that it was the date book causing the Palm Desktop to not open. So I followed what I read in the Help Forums for several other problems. That is, in my PC, I went to documents/Palm OS Desktop/(my device name) and there, I renamed the backup and the datebook. I then deleted the entire Palm Desktop from my computer. Then I re-installed Palm Desktop by Access from a fresh download. Before running Hotsync, I changed the datebook setting to "Desktop overwrites handheld". I then Hotsync'ed. Then I re-installed Holli-dates. My TX worked and I was also now able to open Palm Desktop. I did lose the few dates in my date book that I had saved but it is no big deal since I got the TX for Christmas and didn't have much loaded anyhow. After Hotsync'ing  a couple of more times, I went back to my Docuements/Palm OS Desktop/(my device name) on my PC and deleted the renamed backup and datebook. Everything is working fine now.

  • Palm Desktop 6.2 vs Older Operating Systems

    I have a Treo 650 and I believe my operating system is Palm OS Garnet (?) v. 5.4.8.
    Recently I tried to download some new apps and they don't want to install on my Treo.  I have several questions.
    1) Can I install Palm Desktop 6.2?
    2) Will I still be able to use the applications I have now or will they be corrupted or eliminated?
    3) Are there directions on how to install somewhere?
    Thanks

    1. Sure you can, but if you're not running Vista or Win7 on your computer it makes no sense at all.
    2. Some that depend on Quick Install will not work, and many older ones may not be able to sync (like Docs to Go).  Palm Desktop (by Access of Japan) is a less-featured version of the original software.
