Palm Photo and Tungsten E2

Recently I bought a PalmTungsten E2 (PalmOS Garnet v.5.4.7). When I've tried to enter to Photos & Video I got the following message: The application cannot be launched because it is missing location information.
I checked on the installation disk and tried to install again and again and nothing happened. Could somebody help me. Thanks a lot.

This question was solved.
View Solution.

Are you sync'ing the E2 to the same username in Palm Desktop as the T2?
If you are, this will cause problems on the new device. When you sync the device, it saves the device settings, 3rd party apps, preferences, etc. in the backup folder in the username folder on the PC. When you sync the new device it copies the contents of the backup folder for the old device to the new device. This will cause corruption in the settings for the new device thus causing erratic behavior of the new device.
You may need to hard reset your device and rename your backup folder. Go to http://www.palm.com/cgi-bin/cso_kbURL.cgi?ID=887 and follow the directions to do a hard reset. Next before you hotsync your data back over you will need to rename your backup folder, to do that go here;
XP
C:\program files\palm or palm one\[hotsync username]\ and rename your backup
folder to backup.old
Vista
Start-->documents\Palm OS Desktop\[hotsync username]\ and rename your backup
folder to backup.old
Then hotsync to your current hotsync name and all your contacts, calendar,
tasks, and memos will come back over.

Hotsync Palm Centro and Tungsten T5?

Hi, Everyone,
I am new to the forum, but have done a little lurking. I am looking for help with a new install of Palm Desktop 6.2.2
I have had three previous Palm devices and always have trouble moving to the newer platform, but I eventually get it worked out. I just installed Desktop 6.2.2 on my Vista computer because I got a Centro. Although the instructions said to install over my prior desktop, when I did so, I lost all the backup files from the prior version. I hope I can restore them from my T5.
Will the newer desktop communicate with the T5?
I read another post about using a fix from Pimlico software to make the newest desktop compatible with the T5. Does anyonw know if I will have trouble syncing the Centro if I install the fix from Pimlico?
Thanks, Bill

Are you sync'ing the Centro to the same username in Palm desktop as the T5? If you are, this will cause problems on the new device. When you sync the device, it saves the device settings, 3rd party apps, preferences, etc. in the backup folder in the username folder on the PC. When you sync the new device it copies the contents of the backup folder for the old device to the new device. This will cause corruption in the settings for the new device thus causing erratic behavior of the new device.
You should be sync'ing the 2 devices to 2 different usernames in Palm Desktop so you don't have any conflicts.

How can I transfer my photos and videos from Palm Treo 750 to iMac OS X 10.9.5?

My old Palm Treo 750 which does not have any service has very special photos and videos I would like to put on my iMac OS X 10.9.5. I plugged the phone into the USB adapter and the phone is not recognized. Can anyone give me direction?

Your phone is in recovery mode. You won't be able to get anything off of it until you get it out of recovery mode. Try this:
http://jaxov.com/2010/05/recboot-iphone-recovery-mode/
If that doesn't work, you have no choice but to restore the phone. But, you'll lose all data on the phone going that route.

Pleas a step by step instruction for downloading photos and videos from verizon palm pre to pc. Thank you.

1. Hook your phone to your computer via the USB cable provided. Choose "USB Mode" on the phone when the connection is made.
2. Open Windows Explorer or My Computer, and find the phone. View the folders on the phone.
3. Look for a folder called "DCIM" and inside it "100PALM". This is where your photos and videos live.
4. Copy them to your computer.
5. As with any USB device, remember to "Eject" the phone (from right-clicking on the phone in Windows Explorer or My Computer) or stop the device using the "Safely remove Hardware" button in the bottom right tool tray in Windows.

Help! I just imported my vacation photos and now they are missing in iPhoto! Is there any way to retrieve them?

I just "successfully imported" over 300 vacation photos. It asked me if I wanted to delete them from my camera and I said yes. I've done this hundreds of times over the past several years. Afterwards, I got sidetracked looking in another photo event and then did something on my phone (unrelated) when I noticed my screen went black. I figured I needed to charge my laptop, so I got the cord and plugged it in. After restarting, I went back into iPhoto and under my events there is a thumbnail for each day from vacation, but a generic black and white picture of a palm tree and no pictures in any of the events. My last import is of the pictures I loaded before this batch. I've looked everywhere and can't find them! This has never happened before! Is there any way to find the photos and restore them to iPhoto?
Thank you so much if you can help!!!

a best practice to is to never have any computer program (including iPhoto) delete the photos from the card but to import the photos and keep them and then after at least one successful backup cycle has completed and then reformat the card -- I use three very large (32 GB) cards in rotation so I do not reformat for typically a year or more giving me one more long term backup of my photos

Photos and Video do not store on storage card

I have a Palm Treo Pro from Telstra with a Telstra 2gb MicroSD card. The problem is that I have not been able to view any of the photos and videos I have taken since I bought the phone, because the folder 100MEDIA does not exist. I have selected the option to store all images and video on the storage card and I believe it should be storing them to the default location of DCIM/100MEDIA.......but there is no 100MEDIA folder. I don;t want to store them on the device.
So where are all my images and videos?
And I cannot create a any sub-folders (let alone one called 100MEDIA) in DCIM when it is synched as my PC tells me I cannot due to the folder DCIM being read-only, insuffiecient memory or no permission to do this.
I am extremely frustrated as I have potentially lost a lot of sentimental images and vids of my kids.

That's one of the questions I am trying to find out really. I take a photo, I have it set to save onto my storage card, yet when I look on my storage card there are no pictures/vids on it. So where is it saving anything that comes from the camera? I have done a search and the pictures and videos I have taken do not show up.
Okay, I think I understand where you are looking; I had to play around with a few things. You are using the "Explore" button from the ActiveSync window. When you open My Windows Mobile-based device, then Storage Card, it's blank. This particular view looks to be pretty useless.
The easiest solution, although not the cheapest, is to get an adapter that allows you to attach your storage card to your PC. In my case, when I bought my microSD card it came with an SD-sized adapter so I could use it with my existing card reader. The advantage is that you have the full power of Windows Explorer available to work on the card, and speed should be better than using the USB cable. The downside is that inserting and removing the card increases the risk of damage.
I think what Microsoft actually was thinking, though, was that you would set up a sync relationship with Windows Media Player. After the ActiveSync window comes up, fire up Windows Media Player from the Start menu, and look for a Sync button on the toolbar. Underneath is a drop-down that lets you set up synchronization for your Treo Pro for various media including photos and videos. I don't use this method because I don't want all the garbage on my PC to end up on my phone. However, if your media libraries are more organized than mine, it might work for you.
Hope this helps.

How to hotsync photos and videos?

Hi,
I have a treo 650 with Bell Mobility and can't find the way to back up my photos and videos.
When I install hotsync and desktop manager I only have the options of syncing Calendar, Contacts, Tasks and Memos but not photos and videos (and that's what the Palm desktop 6.2 download page says as well).
What am I missing?
Thanks.
Post relates to: Treo 650 (Verizon)

Hello Millionaire and welcome to the Palm forums.
Palm Desktop 6.2.2, despite it's name, was not developed by Palm, and is missing some of the basic features of earlier versions of Palm Desktop.
If you have photos and videos taken with your Treo 650 that you want to transfer to your Mac or PC, I would suggest that you take the SD card of out the Treo and then use a USB card reader on your computer and manually copy of the contents of the DCIM folder to a new folder on your computer.

Missing Event key photos and photo count

This is a question regarding the Library Events folder with the list of all events. I have approximately 560 events and 24,000 photos. The problem is with only 32 events within a date rangeof four months from Feb thru June of this year that contained 41 events. 9 of the events scattered throughout that date range work normally. I can't identify a common denominator for either of the groups that work or those that don't. I can't think of any difference in the way I imported them or any other reason why some within that range don't work properly and some do. For some reason the last 8 events over the last 6 weeks have worked perfectly. I'm pretty sure the problematic events had shown perfectly for a while and that suddenly one day this situation started even for some events that already had been working fine.
The problem with the 32 events is two key characteristics, there is not a key photo for the event whether one is assigned specifically or one chosen by the program - just a generic black and white ghost image icon with a palm tree and sunset. The other issue is when hovering over the event icon and when it would usually list the number of photos within the event - in these 32 groups it shows only 0 (zero) but when I go into the event all of the photos are there - whether it's 1 photo or 100. I am able to assign titles to the events as normal.
Here are some things I have been told but have no idea as to the accuracy and thought I would put this question out to the experts before I did anything. One thing I had been told that was that iPhoto isn't equipped to hold this large a number of photos and to switch to Aperture but today I read something within Apple that says Aperture uses the same library as iPhoto.
Someone else had mentioned reindexing the library but I'm not sure whether to attempt that and what that means. I read in another forum and it was unclear if that would be a suitable course of action for me but that was a question someone posed regarding an ios device so it really wouldn't apply to me directly:
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5123493?start=0&tstart=0
It occurs to me as I write this that perhaps I could just export these events of photos and then re-import them again.
I'm sorry this is so long. I'm trying to be thorough. After years of looking through forums for answers to questions that have boggled my mind - this is the first time I've ever posted a question. Please be gentle. Thanks!

That is as you note incorrect - the current versions of iPhoto and Aperture do use the same exact library structure and can open and modify each other's libraries - the current limitation on an iPhoto library is !,000,000 photos (I have not personally verified that)
It occurs to me as I write this that perhaps I could just export these events of photos and then re-import them again.
No - that would not improve anything and would lose data
What you need to do it backup your iPHoto library, depress the option and command keys, launch iPhoto and rebuild your thrumbnails - which may take several tries - if this does not resolve things rebuild the library

thanks so much

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Are you seeing the thumbnails or not? If you're seeing thumbnails what do you see when you double click on one?
To make sure your photos are still safe and sound locate the iPhoto Library package in your Pictures folder. Control-click on it and select "Show Package Contents" in the Contextual menu. Then locate the Originals folder and check inside to make sure the full sized image files are there. Report back with what you find.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

Palm OS and Duplicate Entries

My wife uses a G4 Powerbook, OSX 10.3.9. Whenever she sync's her Tungsten E2 she gets duplicated files. I can't seem to figure a way around this? Using something like undupe seems like a backwards solution; others have suggested having the desktop always over-right the handheld - but this defeats the function of having a handheld.
Any suggestions? Please, before she hurl's her E2 out the window (and me with it, for buying it for her...)

It's almost impossible for this to happen with the Palm Desktop. But, I can think of one scenario where it would appear to happen…
Check the current state of the Palm-provided Backup Conduit. It it was once set to backup, but is now set to restore and the switch to this state had occurred after the initial record duplication, then any effort she made to remove the duplicates would result in their immediate replacement, as the Backup Conduit runs last. What caused it initially is a mystery, and will probably always be a mystery.
To correct it, first make sure that the Backup Conduit is set to Backup or Do Nothing. Then, choose once to overwrite the Palm device with information in the Palm Desktop (if the duplicates reside on the handheld and not on the computer) and then restore synchronization. Choose once to have the device overwrite the computer (if the duplicates reside in the Palm Desktop and not on the organizer) and then restore synchronization. If they currently reside in both places, it's far easier to use UnDupe to remove them from the handheld and have it overwrite the desktop once, then restore synchronization.

Hi, and welcome to the Palm Community Forums.
The Windows Hotsync board is chock full of threads and stickies regarding Windows Vista and older Palm devices such as yours.
32-bit Vista: use Palm Desktop 6.2.2 plus PalmHotsyncSetup from www.pimlicosoftware.com
64-bit Vista: USB Hotsync won't work (no drivers). Must use IR beaming, Bluetooth or Wi-Fi to Hotsync

I am making a calendar in iPhoto, picking photos from a folder, let's call it "2011 Pics," in iPhoto. After arranging all the photos and captions I decided I wanted to insert a new photo -- one that was not in "2011 Pics." So I inserted it into the folder, but the picture does not show up on the scrolling menu of pictures at the left of the calendar-making page. This happened last year and in frustration I started all over again. But surely there is a way to add a new picture to a calendar that is already laid out.

Yes, the Old Master file has a folder for each year where I find all photos from that specific year. I am attaching a screen shot of the file.
In the meantime i have managed to download all photos (it did not download any video files though in mpg, avi, 3gp, m4v,mp4 and mov format) to a new iphoto library. Unfortunately the photos are quite mixed and often doubled up. I ma considering to purchase iphoto library which checks all duplicates in iphoto. this will save me a lot of time. What do you think?

Please HELP! My kid wiped my iPhone5 and I need to get my photos and videos off it! I have no backup with iTunes :(( Is there a way to scan the device manually?

hi,
New to this, so go easy on me. I recently got my first iDevice - an iPhone 5. I've used it for a month now and I have to say I love it.
But, I gave it to my kid this morning to look at. It was locked, so I assumed it was safe. WRONG. 5 mins later, I returned to him and my lovely iPhone5 was at the setup /pick your language screen! Looks like he entered the password incorrectly too many times and wiped it.
Now - I thought it would be fairly easy to recover the data and the apps - but it turns out this is not the case. I was never prompted to install iTunes and sync the device - not in the manual, not on the device when setting it up - so how was I to know that that would be my backup. I checked iCloud at a suggestion of an IT pal - nothing there, despite knowing that I had a Photo stream enabled. I may have disabled it only recently, but not sure if I can manually turn it on again?
Anyway - is there a way to manually scan my device and grab my all important photos and videos?
Cheers for any suggestions!

Hi Michela27,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If you have content on your iPhone that isn't on your computer, the best thing is to use the advice in this article to transfer it to your new computer before setting up sync:
