Palm devices and Apple computers

I was thinking about getting a palm T5 and I was wondering how well palm devices work with macs. Does the iCal sync ok and everything else (i know there is a palm desktop version for mac but i do not want to use that, i like ical to much) so does iCal sync fine and how about other apps, can they sync with my palm, Mail? Address book? etc....
Thank you,
TM

Thanks, Wade. I didn't know that.
I've actually already installed the Palm Desktop software, so does this mean I'm good to go?
I realize this sounds pretty clueless, but I must confess that's how I am when it comes to this new phone/pda. I've also never used iSync before. In fact, until you mentioned it, I didn't even know it was installed.
I just opened iSync for the first time and tried to sync up with my Treo via bluetooth, and it found the device (very cool!) but was unable to sync. I got a message saying "iSync can not connect to this device."
When I tried to pair the device using the bluetooth setup assistant, it found the device, but all the boxes were grayed out and it said that "there were no supported services found on your mobile pphone."
Any idea what I'm doing wrong.

  • What are the problems associated with Minecraft game and Apple computers

    What are the problems with Minecraft game and Apple computers.  I've read that the two are incompatible.

    You have a very limited amount of time before night falls and the monsters might come out. You have to HOLD DOWN the mouse button to hit things to change them. Hit the earth to dig a cave. Hit a tree repeatedly to get wood.
    A two button mouse is superior, because a lot of actions require a left click. <-- OH That is why they say it is not compatible!
    It is compatible, you just need to left click sometimes!

  • What is the best way to set up devices and multiple computers for a family

    I am trying to setup multiple devices and computers with home sharing.  I currently have 1 apple I'd for my wife and one for me.   I want to set up home sharing for us and my two kids.  We have two small laptops that stay at home and one that goes back and forth to work.  
    ?1. Do i need to give up my apple I'd and share my wife's or vise versa or do I just enter it into my device iPhone or iPad when I want to load something from another library onto my device and the change I'd back.  Will the stuff still be there then when I switch back to my apple Id.     Can I switch like that.  
    2. Should my kids each have their own apple I'd or just use the same one for multiple computers and devices. 
    3. Does a network system outside of wifi need to be setup for the computers another wards have the computers linked on a network. Or can they just be in the same place at the same time with wifi.  Generic linksys Internet connection.

    Unless you have 3rd-party apps allowing Windoze to read and write Mac OS Extended, or your Mac to read & write NTFS, your options are ExFat or Fat.   See #9 in Using Disk Utility.

  • Configurator - supervised devices and switching computers

    I manage a number of iPads through Configurator that we have supervised, and our company is making us upgrade computers.  Will I have to gather the iPads and un-supervise them then setup Configurator from scratch on the new computer or is there a way to transfer the profiles/etc?

    In addition to backing up the iOS apps, there are other files, too.
    See this: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5194
    or read this:
    Note: If you use third-party backup software, make sure that the directory ~/Library/Application Support is not excluded from the backup.
    To recover your Apple Configurator data from a Time Machine backup:
    Choose Enter Time Machine from the Time Machine menu extra or System Preference pane.
    Press Command-Shift-G and type: ~/Library/Application Support
    Select the item "com.apple.configurator" in the backup with the appropriate date.
    Click Restore.
    If you are using third-party backup software, follow its instructions to restore ~/Library/Application Support/com.apple.configurator.
    You may also want to recover the following information from the backup of the same date:
    ~/Library/Keychains, to recover the Supervision Certificate and public and private keys. These will allow supervised devices to reconnect to the host computer.
    ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.configurator.plist, to restore Configurator settings and preferences.
    Restoring data to a new Mac
    If you restore the files and folders listed above to a new Mac, you can use it to manage devices supervised by the previous Apple Configurator Mac.
    Additional Information
    If you have supervised devices with Apple Configurator and you lose the Apple Configurator data files, the devices will still be supervised by the Mac that is running Configurator, but Apple Configurator will not be able to reinstall app backups or user data onto those supervised devices.
    It is especially important to back up Apple Configurator information if you are using VPP codes. After a VPP code has been redeemed, only the Apple Configurator database keeps a record of what device that code was redeemed for. If this database is lost, and the app is deleted from the device, Apple Configurator will not be able to reuse the redeemed code in order to install the app, and you will need to purchase and redeem additional codes to replace the app on a device.

    I make sure my iPad configurator machine has regular TimeMachine backups. A 500GB USB2 drive is enough to handle the initial startup disk backup & incrementals afterwards. It is important to have a dedicated machine for profile tasks, too. An Intel Core 2 Duo 2GHz or greater Mac Mini should suffice and is quite inexpensive.

  • HT204053 I changed my Apple ID on all my devices and Apple services but iCloud still shows my old Apple ID. How can I get it to update?

    I changed my Apple ID on all my devices and  services but iCloud still shows my old Apple ID. How can I get it to update?

    I asked the Apple Tech support people and their advice worked for me, it's a setting on the iPad itself. see below.
    Follow the below instructions to sign in with your new account name.
    1) From the home screen, tap Settings
    2) Tap Store
    3) Tap Sign Out
    4) Tap Sign In
    5) Enter your current account name "xxxx" and your password  and tap OK.
    If you are still unable to change the sign in name on your iPad, please sign into your account on your computer and then sync the iPad so the changes will be updated.
    good luck

  • WRT 300v1 and apple computers

    OK, Just bought the new WRT 300vl wireless broadband router.
    I accessed the router through a direct ethernet connection the web base way.
    Tried to set up the router using the url way but am getting no
    where, it acknowledges that I am conversing with the router on settings, but when I try to connect to the internet my powerbook says I am not connected. I am using safari, but I read in some help section that I must use Microsoft internet explorer in order for this router to be set up properly?
    Does Linksys have a setup/help guide for apple computers using OSX?
    It says on one pdf that it is compatible with MacIntosh computers
    but really,
    when did Apple last produced a Macintosh?
    I have an apple powerbook not a Macintosh powerbook.
    Should I take this router back to the store and find
    a wireless N router brand that is more compatible with
    Apple computers?
    I am sorta in a fix because my old wireless
    hub went out and I also rely on my VOIP phone to communicate.
    I am currently using a neighbors computer to relay this message.
    help and
    Thanks.

    All faqs and knowledge base articles from linksys are on the linksys support pages. There should be something for macos, too, I guess.
    I wouldn't worry about the naming "Macintosh". Apple changed the names so often you'll find the weirdest things those requirement sections at times. The router will work fine with a computer running macos. I had never problems running my iMac through a RV042 or WRT54G, wired or wireless.
    To figure out what the exact problem is: could you please check the Status tab on the router configuration? Post the status output please. Also, if it is unconnected there, press the connect button and post the exact error message you get if you get one.
    If you are connected on the Status page, please also try a ping command in a "Terminal" window. Lookup the gateway and DNS server ip addresses on the status page. Then ping those ip addresses, e.g.,
    ping 123.234.211.121
    Post if it succeeds or the exact error message if not.

  • HT204074 whats the difference between managed devices and authorized computers

    What is the difference between the 10 managed devices and 5 authorized machines? What cant I do on the Unauthorized device that is a managed device?

    This is my understanding of it.
    Authorisation only applies to computers, not devices (iPads, iPhones, iPod Touches) - it allows you to play/use your iTunes downloads on that computer e.g. playing music, films etc., and to sync that content to a device. Up to 5 computers can be authorised at a time.
    Having a device associated (or managed) with your account, which can be up to 10 computers and devices (and as each associated computer must also be authorised to your account it means that at most 5 of the 10 can be computers) means that you've used iTunes Match, automatic downloads and/or re-downloaded past purchases on them. Once a device or computer is associated to an account it will be tied to that account for 90 days. You can still sync content to a device without it being on the associated list.
    A managed computer must also be an authorised computer, so you can't have one that is unauthorised but associated.

  • Trying to sync calendars between 2 palm devices and ical

    Hi,
    My fiancee and I each have a Palm handheld. Mines a TE and I think hers is a T2. Here is my dream scenerio:
    We set up a couple of calendars in iCal, one for her stuff and one for my stuff. When we sync, we can each see both calendars on our respective palm devices.
    Does that make sense? Is it possible? We just want to be able to coordinate our schedules, ya know?
    Thanks in advance,
    Matt

    Let me say this before you go any further: sharing is difficult. In personal, not technological, terms.
    What you want to do is relatively easy, and there are several approaches. The easiest, I believe, is to establish separate user accounts (on a single machine, or—ideally—on separate machines) and share your calendars usingBusySync, with—or without—Google calendars and an intermediate storage 'device.'
    You should also consider using the Missing Sync for Palm OS to synchronize your Palm devices to your Mac OS X platforms, as it is a far more powerful and reliable approach than that offered by iSync and the iSync Palm Conduit.

  • I am aware that many people, like me, have lost the ability to mirror their iPad, iPhone or computer with Apple TV.  Has anyone yet found a solution?  One day it worked, the next day the option to switch between the device and Apple TV had disappeared.

    Has anyone managed to resolve the problems encountered with Apple TV and the loss of ability to mirror iphones, ipads or computers?  One day it was working perfectly, from all the above devices, the next the option to switch between playing on the device or mirroring to apple tv had disappeared.  I have tried all the obvious such as updating iTunes, turning all devices off and then back on, but nothing is working.  Help please!

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Your problem is most certainly network related, you might try restarting your devices including your router as a temporary solution, but in the long term would be better correcting the problems with your network.
    Intermittent problems are often a result of interference. Interference can be caused by other networks in the neighbourhood or from household electrical items.
    You can download and install iStumbler (NetStumbler for windows users) to help you see which channels are used by neighbouring networks so that you can avoid them, but iStumbler will not see household items.
    Refer to your router manual for instructions on changing your wifi channel.
    There are other types of problems that can affect networks, but this is by far the most common, hence worth mentioning first.

  • Need help with multiple devices and apple id

    Between my husband and myself, we have two Iphones, two Ipads, and one Imac.  I back all of them up on my Imac using ONE iTunes account....we prefer not use Icloud, and I think that helps keep the information on each device relatively separate from each other...no overlaps with contacts and calendars.  We have one APPLE id and password, that we use for Itunes and the App Store.   We just got the Iphone 6 for my husband, and it keeps asking him to enter his Icloud PW.(his recognized user name is his PRIMARY email address)...which presumably he does not have, nor does he need (or maybe he does I need some real guidance on that).  To keep this from making him crazy can I just delete his Icloud account, which again presumably, was created automatically with the new Iphone 6 set up??
    Similarly, I need to use FIND my Phone (etc), and HIS devices are not in MY listed devices....is this because he NEEDS his own APPLE ID, or is there a way to add his devices to my list of devices within the APP....I thought because we share the Itunes account they should all be in MY devices.
    Can someone help me make sense of this?
    THANKS!!

    Hello melissaben6250,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities. 
    I understand that you are not seeing your husbands new iPhone 6 in your Find My iPhone app. First, while you may "prefer not use iCloud", you are using it, at least in regards to Find My iPhone for your existing devices.
    Now, for your husband's phone and Find My iPhone. It sounds like during the setup of his phone, he logged in to his Apple ID and even possibly created another iCloud account. In order to see his phone on your existing Find My iPhone, it will have to log in to the iCloud account where the other devices are signed in. Take a look at this article on troubleshooting Find My iPhone, especially the first section on the device not appearing.

  • Can I have one cloud for my family with multiple devices and apple ids?

    I need to know the best way to link multiple devices with different apple ids to the same iCloud to share iTunes and content.

    My iphone 5s = apple id 1
    Husband iphone 4s = apple id 2
    My ipad = apple id 3
    Son #1 ipad mini = apple id 4
    Son #2 ipad mini = apple id 5
    For iCloud.. Not quite, you want the same ID for iCloud on your phone and iPad so you have the same info on each. (so perhaps ID 1 on both.
    But if you want to share your music (assuming lets say its your ID 1 that has the iTunes account), you should all use ID 1 for iTunes.

  • HT204053 icloud backup with multiple devices and apple ids

    Wondering if I have the appropriate set up to ensure all my data, purchases, apps, etc. is properly backed up to my icloud (personal email account)?  Here is my current set up.  PC: itunes - personal email; iPhone: icloud & store purchases - personal email; iPad: icloud-work email and store purchases-personal email.  So will store purchases on my iPad still go to my personal icloud?  (Note I can't change the iPad: icloud log in - iPad owned by work so required setting)
    Also, does icloud copy any data from my PC other than itunes?  Not sure if the set up questions when I icloud on my PC are related to my PC or to the various devices.  For instance, "Mail" is an option - which mail account is this?  
    Any clarification on these questions would be much appreciated!

    My iphone 5s = apple id 1
    Husband iphone 4s = apple id 2
    My ipad = apple id 3
    Son #1 ipad mini = apple id 4
    Son #2 ipad mini = apple id 5
    For iCloud.. Not quite, you want the same ID for iCloud on your phone and iPad so you have the same info on each. (so perhaps ID 1 on both.
