Palm Passwords Plus Replacement?

I'm migrating from a Palm Treo to a new iPhone. I've used DataViz's Passwords Plus password/personal information manager, which keeps all of my data in sync between both my Treo and my 2 Macs. I've seen no indication that DataViz is porting the app, so does anyone know of a Mac/iPhone solution that will do this best? Ideally one that will import my Passwords Plus data...

e-wallet has gotten some good reviews and it looks like a visually appealing iPod app. If you contact support, they will send you info on how to import password information into their product.
I haven't tried they e-Wallet, as I've just started looking for a password app to use. I do think Passwords Plus is EXTREMELY function and very elegantly written. I wish DataViz would make up their minds to write an iPod app. Wouldn't that be a no-brainer for the consumer??

  • Passwords Plus (and Palm Store support issue)

    I bought a CD of "Passwords Plus" software by DataViz from the Palm Store.  I've been in contact with them and they acknowledge that I purchased it.  I found an email notification of their sending the CD to me with an expected delivery date the first week of September 2008.  I had the software installed on my laptop and had been using it for several weeks.  Although I don't strictly remember, I think it's safe to say that I installed it from that disk.  It wasn't prompting me to register as if it were a trial version.
    My laptop came back from the repair shop recently and it was completely "re-imaged" (to my surprise).  I had made a backup of my laptop on an external Maxtor drive before sending the computer off for repair, and I am also a Carbonite on-line backup customer. 
    Now, for some reason, I cannot find my "Passwords Plus" CD.  I called the Palm Store because I simply wondered if the Palm Store made downloads of previously purchased products available.  It don't think that was such an outlandish idea, but when I asked Dennis at the Palm Store, he seemed a very terse and intolerant mix of being somehow confused and offended at the whole idea.  He made me feel as though he thought I was a crook or an idiot.
    Perhaps the Palm Store doesn't have a download feature--I don't remember--and that's the reason it sounded like an idea from Mars to this guy, but he wasn't very pleasant or reasonable with me.  Maybe he was just having a bad day.  In the end, he said he was sorry.  I forgive him, but does anyone have any ideas of how to get my Password Plus back in functioning mode?  I thought the double backups I did would cover me.
    I'm pretty much without passwords and undable to proceed with serveral issues 'til I get this resolved. 
    Personal Lesson:  Now I know not to put off immediately adding new key information to a written hardcopy file!! 
    Let me know if you have any ideas...

    Thanks.  That was a very good idea. 
    But I try not to bog forums down without trying as many options as I can on my own first and I did, in fact, contact DataViz as one of my options.
    They say my "Passwords Plus" is not registered with them.  (Lesson:  the Importance of Registering Immediately).  They say that since I didn't purchase it from them directly and it doesn't show up in their database, they have no way of verifying my purchase or allowing me to download a replacement. 
    Let this be a reminder to ME and a lesson to all that it's a good idea to have a HARDCOPY of CURRENT Serial Numbers, Product Key Codes, Usernames and Passwords on hand at all times, AND to be better organized "librarian" of disks so as to avoid situations like this.  I have an email from Palm indicating they sent the disk to me.  I spoke with Palm Store personnel who indicated that they had a record of my purchase (but couldn't seem to conceive of doing anything other than to give me that information).  It may very well be that unless I can find that disk of mine, or a precious piece of paper with a Registration Code on it, I may just have to buy the software again.  I'd much rather have it than not.
    The only possible alternative I can think of might be this: someone might know of a way for me to get the program to open like it used to when I'd click on the desktop shortcut.  All I would have to do would be to enter my password and bingo...there was my complete list of passwords.  It's a great little program.  When I look in my backup drive, I see what looks like all the necessary "Passwords Plus."  Why can't I simply click on the application file and have it open without it asking for the registration code?
    Feel free to tell me you don't think there is any answer other than to either find the disk or repurchase. 
    Hansen
    Thanks to all the interested parties who put their minds to the task of helping others!!
    By the way:  Bob at Palm Corporate was awesome.  Through him I discovered that I may be able to sync my Palm Treo with my 64-bit Vista laptop by means of Bluetooth.  We'll see, but today I am enjoying the hope much more than the disappointing dead-end of learning that I couldn't sync at all (because of the 64-bit architecture).

  • I have a new Palm Pre Plus - can I have more than one Google G-Mail Account on the phone?

    I have a general G-Mail account and it has started getting too busy with advertisements etc.  I'm thinking about changing to a different e-mail address but don't know what yet.
    I have an old Palm Centro I used to Synch with my laptop.  Now I need to do this with G-Mail.  So I created a unique g-mail account that would only contain my calendar and contact information - i called it "palm.last name" - made sense to me.
    When I try to add it to my Palm Pre Plus I am unable to sign in.  I'm wondering if you are limited to the number of Gmail e-mail accounts you can have on the phone.  If i can only have 1 then I don't want my e-mail to be "palm.last name" and give that out to people - that would not make sense to them. 
    I already have a Yahoo Account and I'm thinking about another Yahoo Account to keep some e-mails and instant messages separate from my personal Yahoo.  If I cannot add more than 1 account, this is going to be a problem.
    Thank you for any assistance you can provide.

    Hi, and welcome to the Palm Support Community.
    You should be able to add your second Gmail account without any problem...I have two Gmail accounts on my Pre and have no difficulties.
    When you say you are unable to "sign in", I assume you mean you are unable to sync the email and calendar on your new account?  Double-checking your user name and password are the only things that come to mind.

  • SERIOUS PROBLEM Synching Palm Pre Plus (Verizon) with Companion Link OS USB -- NEED HELP!!

    I am having serious problems with Companion Link OS USB synching with Palm Desktop 4.2 via USB on my Verizon Palm Pre.
    The Verizon phone is my second Palm Pre.  (The original Palm Pre which came from Germany worked perfectly with Companion Link).
    The Verizon Palm Pre is a Palm Pre Plus.
    As noted I utilize Palm Desktop software Version 4.2.0 on my computer.
    I started out with Companion Link software Version 3.0 Build 3096  -- and have worked my way up to Version 4.0 Build 4008 over the last few months, and have spend hundreds of hours trying to solve the synchronization issue described in detail below.
    The Companion Link software is configured to ONLY synch one way
    FROM my Palm Desktop on my computer to the phone via USB
    (I don’t want to put my contacts and calendar on the web, NOR do I like the way Google contacts works, even if I DID want to). 
    When I synch the Palm Desktop to the Palm Pre the following occurs:
    The Calendar synchs fine.
    The contacts do NOT synch properly. 
    I have 1,500+ contacts in my Palm Desktop. 
    For some inexplicable reason, during the synch process the approximately 1,200+ of my contacts are compiled under ONE contact listing (John Davis). The icon by the contact shows that TWO contacts are linked under John Davis, however when I click on the icon to see who is linked under John Davis, NO contacts appear.  But I have the option to link additional contacts under John Davis if desired (AS IF!!).
    So, 1,200 of my contacts do NOT appear in the contact list.  If I want to call my husband, and type in Bruce, NOTHING comes up.  BUT if I type in his phone number, the listing for John Davis comes up and shows me all the numbers that legitimately belong to my husband.  Ditto my friend Susan, etc for the other 1,200 contacts buried under the contact listing for John Davis on the phone.
    SO, if any of these 1,200+ people, call me or text message me, my phone tells me I have a call or a text from John Davis.
    I cannot look up my contacts to call them or text them because the contacts do not actually APPEAR under John Davis (If the phone were just linking them and SHOWED them, I could manually de-link them).
    FURTHER, when I get a text message from anyone who is compiled under John Davis, the text message is truncated.  I can see the notification that I got a text message from John Davis, and I can see the first few words in the notification area, but if I open the text message, it appears to be blank (this only happens after synching Companion Link – before linking Companion Link all text messages are fine.  AND, if I get a text message from one of the 300 or so contacts that actually synch into my phone correctly, the text messages are perfectly fine and work normally.
    I have worked with BOTH the Companion Link technical support people AND the Palm technical support people extensively in an effort to solve this problem.
    I have done Full Secure Erases and started over trying to get the phone to synch more than 35 times at this point. 
    I have tried synching from different computers
    I have had Palm replace the phone TWICE (so this is actually my third Verizon Palm Pre Plus).
    I have run Web OS Doctor
    Nothing helps.
    Every time the phone does exactly the same thing described above.
                When I synch the phone it tells me:
                Web OS:     Added             1543/1543    Contacts to the phone
                PC:              Updated          1232/1232     Contacts
    (The 1232 contacts being updated are the 1232 that are compiled under the one contact listing of course).
    Needless to say, Companion Link says it is the phone. 
    Palm says it is the Companion Link third party software.
    Since it is the same 1,200+ contacts every time, I have had both Palm and Companion Link examine my contact database to see if they could identify anything amok about these 1,200+ contacts, but there doesn’t appear to be any difference between those contacts and the 300 or so that synch into the phone properly.
    Companion Link has told me variously that:
    -  This is a very rare Synergy issue and that I must turn off the Synergy feature on the phone (would that this could be done per Palm it can NOT be done).
    -  Only TWO people have ever had this issue (me and someone else unnamed);
    -  That this is a common problem with the Palm Pre, but Companion Link works fine with every other phone
    -  I e-mailed them my contact list and they SWORE to me that they were unable to duplicate my problem on their computers.  (I don’t believe this)
    -  AND has most recently told me that there is nothing more they can do for me, that I will have to find a solution myself.
    Palm has said that there is nothing they can do for me if third party software doesn’t work properly with the phone.
    This does appear to be the Synergy feature run amok.  But how to correct it???????
    I love the Palm Pre.  I love my Palm Desktop 4.2 software.
    If I can’t get this fixed shortly, I guess I’m going to have to move back to a Treo 680.
    Does anyone out there please, please, please have a solution or a suggestion that will help?
    Post relates to: Pre Plus p101vzw (Verizon)

    Hello,
    I am almost as frustrated as you.  Purchased my pre plus back in may and bought the companion link software immediately  ( I have synced via usb for years on other palms to lotus notes)  All the information from companion link states that it does the job.  I only need to sync my calendar, no contacts.   I have put in a ridiculous amount of time with palm, my IT department and Companion link,  IT HAS NEVER EVER EVER WORKED.   I deleted, re installed, upgraded, tried different steps in different orders, I have gotten a new phone, tried it on multiple computers.  NOTHING WORKS.   Probably been through all these steps listed 50 times by now.  Actually I think that companion link doesn't work for palm pre plus, they just are not willing to say so and advertise that is does work. 
    I am extremely disappointed in my pre because of this.  I did my research before making my purchase, it appeared possible.    I WAS a long term palm user.  Currently looking at new phones and never again a palm.  Companion link should be more careful about what they say they can do.  One of the service techs actually told me that if I wanted it to work I should ditch my palm.  That's service for ya.
    Good luck,  the fight got the better of me.  I am done.

  • 2 wk old Palm Pre Plus... When slide closes, shuts off.. Daily.. Repair options..

    Having worked for Blackberry/RIM in the early days I'm well versed in smart devices. I even worked for a company and did support for Palm Pilot's.
    Here's the deal. 2 or 3 years ago when Palm Treo 750 came out my friend needed a new phone with a plethera of options so I purchased her one as a gift. Wonderful phone. That phone had run it's course and do to a sticking qwerty keyboard needed a replacement.
    So I think "Palm Pre Plus.. Wonderful options, great phone design.. and Palm quality like we had with the Treo."
    I bought her a Palm Pre Plus again as a gift, not through a carrier. Her carrier is AT&T by the way. It was brand new. I know this because I got the phone before I gave it to her.
    She's had it two weeks so far. And it's having the what I've found through research to be the notorious "shutting off" problem. Whenever she closes the slide, and apparently now even when it's just sitting and gets moved, it shuts off and needs to manually be turned on again. No it's not the screen's sleep feature. It does this daily at the very least, if not multiple times a day.
    Having researched this problem on this forum looking for a fix using threads with the same problem I had her try running OS doctor not thinking it would fix as I read another thread on this site saying it wouldn't. But it was worth a try at least. And it didn't help at all.
    I told her then to contact palm hoping for some support. Due to Palm's North American Tech Support closing at 8pm, her long work hours and potentially costing money for support. I had her use Palm's 24/7 Online Chat Tech Support.
    They told her today to contact her carrier. I don't believe AT&T will cover it with a replacement because the phone wasn't purchased on her AT&T account.
    At this point I'm really unpleased with palm, and spending my hard earned money on a product that has apparently(from the threads I've read on this forum) a known defect.
    She is going to try phone support tommorrow to see if they can be of more help. I'm upset at palm enough that if phone support is of no help tommorrow with supporting a 2 wk old phone that is clearly defective... To say I will be upset with Palm will be putting it mildly. This is obviously a device malfunction that palm support should know about and has happened in other cases. 
    Are there any other options through Palm for getting it repaired or even sent back for a replacement?
    Post relates to: Pre Plus p100una (AT&T)

    The first shutting down issue was related to a bad batch of batteries in some of the original Pre's that were a tiny bit too short.  These were changed out by Sprint, and I wasn't aware of any AT&T branded phones that had this issue!  Mine has never exhibited this behavior. 
    A simple home-made fix suggested on other webOS related forums was to use a piece of folded paper inside the device to hold it tighter against the gold contacts.
    The problem-causing batteries had hollow "legs" at the end - the newer corrected ones had solid "filled-in" legs that fit tighter.

  • Palm Pre Plus: why have it Verizon if it`s no good for your customers?

    I have a Verizon Palm Pre Phone and it is the absolute worst phone I ever owned and I have owned mobile phones back when you needed a operator to place the call., I have had this for for 3 months with 3 warranty replacements in 3 weeks the first two phones would not build a palm profile account phone 3 and 4 the verizon system does not recognize the  phone`.the s ESN I have spoke with both Palm and Verizon`s techs for hours with no help I have been blind transferred back and forth hung-up on by a verizon supervisor and the best help I can get is  suggested I buy a new phone. What about this phone Verizon phone  it`s 3 months old and still under warranty.  I have not had a working phone since 11/27/10 there customer service stinks for a guy who spends 500.00 a month. You are not the only game in town.

    Unfortunate to hear your stories re: the palm pre plus.
    On the flip side, I have had my phone since Jan 2010 and have had NONE of the problems you guys have mentioned.
    To be honest, do not rely on verizon tech support re: palm webOS devices, as either they werent trained by palm when the devices were released, or they didnt pay mind to learn the ins and outs of webOS devices.  you'll get better tech support from palm, or even better from fan sites such as precentral or webOSroundup.  verizon is all into android these days, so if you have an android device, you will get much better tech support from verizon. 
    re: backup- the webOS devices are the easiest to wipe clean, or "doctor" your phone when you want to bring the device back to its factory default, and/or sell the device.  Its also the easiest to "hack" or "homebrew" which interestingly enough, is supported by hp and palm, unlike other platforms.  "homebrewing" is as easy as installing apps on your phone.  homebrewing should also NOT void your warranty.  "Overclocking" on the other hand, while a great tool for palm devices and also as simple as installing an app, WILL void your warranty because you are now affecting the hardware of the phone directly.  Do so at your own risk, though to be honest, it makes the phone SOOOOOOO much faster its hard to be without.  To  each their own.
    Re: contact backup, I would recommend that you do NOT use the default palm profile to back up my calender, contact, and other entries, until HP or PALM one day allows you to access this info in the cloud or on desktop sync software.   I would recommend instead using one of the free syngergy services such as google or yahoo, or alternatively use third party software to sync with outlook or even palm desktop.  This way, all of your contacts, calender entries, and emails will ALWAYS have a backup stored somewhere else, and can easily be synced back to your webOS devices if you ever need to "doctor" or reboot your phone from scratch.
    Hope this helps.

  • Is Palm Zire 21 Software compatible with Palm Pre Plus Cell Phone?

    I have an older Palm Zire 21. I love all the features. However, now I am trying to consolidate my Windows (vista) Calendar with my Palm and it is not compatible. I thought I would purchase the newer Palm Pre plus Cell Phone in order to have all of my contacts and calendars on my phone as well as my laptop. Though no one can seem to answer my question: Can I import my contact and calendar from my Zire 21 to the Palm Pre Plus?
    Many thanks to who can answer this for me. I greatly appreciate your time and assistant.

    webOS (the new Operating System) from Palm does not natively sync to your computer, but to the "cloud" (online servers).
    Palm offers a program that will read your Palm Desktop information, and transfer it to Google.  This is only a one-time transfer, and not a sync solution.  See this thread.

    Post relates to: Palm TX

    Hi, and welcome to the Palm Support Community.
    Your question regarding migration of data from your TX to the Pre Plus is answered in several threads in the Synergy board.  Check the two top "stickied" threads about moving your data, and desktop synchronization with either Palm Desktop or M$ Outlook.
    Also, since that issue is the main Subject of your post, I will move this thread into that Synergy board.

  • Can't download music on palm pre plus

    I can't transfer music from compute to my palm pre plus. Even with windows media or itunes. My palm doesn't reconize it as a mp3 file so it doesn't registerer on my phone as musi file. I did click and drag to my phone and also use windows media to sync media but my palm pre plus isn't regonizing it and it's not on my phone and I'm using my usb to connect to my computer. Any suggestions except to get new computer.
    Post relates to: Pre Plus p101vzw (Verizon)

    I suggest you check the file format your music is saved as.  Windows Media Player defaults to .wma files, not .mp3.  To change WMP, go to: Tools/Options/Rip Music tab.  Change the "Rip Settings" format to MP3.  The Pre will not accept Microsoft .wma files.
    If this is true, you'll have to either re-rip the CD's, or use a free converter program to change the files to .mp3.
    I've never tried to sync files via WMP, instead simply dragging and dropping each album folder on my computer to a folder on my Pre that a great program called "Wifi Media Sync" created (called Wifi Media Sync).

  • How do I synch my Palm Pre Plus with Outlook 2010 running on Windows 7 - 64 Bit

    Any 3rd party apps that will do this>
    Post relates to: Pre Plus p100una (AT&T)

    I have been using my Palm TX for years, with Chapura's KeySuite, in order to sync contacts, calendars, notes and tasks (including categories) with Outlook 2003 in two computers (home and office.) I expected to be able to do the same with the Palm Pre Plus, but this is what Chapura have told me:
    "We only offer software that syncs with Palm OS or the Pre webOS devices. PocketMirror would be our software that works with these devices. The Pre webOS does not support categories for the calendar and contacts. The calendar and contact categories remain in Outlook. They just do not sync to the Pre. The tasks and notes applications that come on the Pre do not support categories. However, in order to sync tasks and notes we had to create our own tasks and notes applications for the Pre. Our tasks and notes application do support categories."
    "You cannot sync with more than one PC using our Pre software. It is only designed to allow you to sync the Pre with one PC. The only software we offer that will allow a handheld to sync with multiple PCs would be our Palm OS software."
    Bummer. So this means that I will be able to sync Outlook 2003 to the Pre (albeit imperfectly -- no categories in calendars nor contacts), but I won't be abe to sync to a 2nd PC...
