Palm TX crashes on HotSync

I just bought a Palm T/X and am having problems with it crashing whenever I try to HotSync it with my Mac Powerbook G4 running OS10.4. I've tried it both with USB and Bluetooth connections (I'd prefer to use the latter). If I do a hard reboot on the T/X it will sync, but then every subsequent attempt results in the T/X restarting without a HotSync occurring. What to do?
thanks,
Ken

Sorry you bought a Palm! I made the same mistake. I now have the same problem and there appears to be no support for Macs. My T/X seemed to sync fine until all of a sudden. But, there does not seem to be any Palm support for Mac OS. My advice to anyone out there with a Mac is not to buy a Palm. Get a iPod Touch which will do all a Palm will do and much, much more. I'm done supporting companies that do not provide acceptable options for Mac users. Shame on Palm.

Palm Desktop crashes after updating windows

Palm Desktop crashes on startup since I updated Windows XP (yesterday). Palm Desktop prompts me for password (as set up) but crashes immediately after that which invokes the odious Windows message: "Palm Desktp has detected a problem and must close - send message report?". I already tried unistalling and reinstalling Palm Desktop without success. Does anybody have any pointers? Thanks in advance.

Sounds like your data has been corrupted, possibly your calendar,
There is a few things to try.
1. If your default calendar view is the month, I would do this step first. Change your date on your computer to two months in the future or past, then try to relaunch palm desktop. Let me know if it launches and I will tell you how to fix that.
2. If your default calendar view is not the month, the do this step. Locate your user folder it is in my documents/palm os desktop/variation of hotsync id
Once you find the hotsync id folder. Grab that and move it to your desktop so it is no longer in the palm os desktop folder. Then try to relaunch palm desktop
Let me know if either one of these steps let you open palm desktop then we will go into fixing them.

Palm TX crashes when WiFi is selected

I have been accessing the internet using the T/X for at least 2 years. Now each time I select WiFi, my Palm TX crashes.
If I have to do a hard reset to fix this, do I have to back up anything? If so, please recommend a free one (I could not locate NVBackup on Sourceforge.net). I have extra programs on the T/X that are not part of the original software. If I do a synch after hard reset, will the extra programs automatically load?
Would also appreciate instructions for hard reset. Thanks
Post relates to: Palm TX

Ok, so I googled like a mofo looking for absolutely every single forum thread about "Palm TX WiFi Crash." Every time I tried to turn on the "WiFi radio" i.e. initiate a network connection, my Palm TX would reset. The issue was that I STUPIDLY!!!! installed various .prc files of random freeware programs I thought would be cool for my Palm TX. After installing them, and trying them out, at some point one program tried to access my WiFi network and the thing crashed. So I freaked out , because as soon as I tried to access WiFi with other programs (Kinoma, Mundu Radio, Blazer) the **bleep** thing instantly would reset. I can't explain how bummed I was. Absolutely bummed. While a Palm TX is cool for various other uses, without WiFi the **bleep** thing is basically sent back to the stone age- like a powerful color game boy. So I did what any proud parent of the kick @ss TX would do- I spent hours looking into why the WiFi would fail. I discovered the soft reset, the warm reset, the hard reset. I backed up the **bleep** thing and started experimenting. Someone told me that it might be a corrupted preferences file, that I should back up the TX and then erase it, see if in the "factory" state the WiFi would work. The WiFi would not work even after I completely erased the product with a hard reset. I was not happy to say the least, completely convinced that the wifi had just suddenly died due to some hardware issue, which I do not have the funds to repair! So, thinking that the built-in ROM WiFi files had become corrupted, I found (full of excitement) that a certain genius by the name of Dimitri had created an enhanced Palm TX ROM file (http://www.1src.com/forums/showthread.php?t=112779 / file: THIS) - Palm doesn't give you a ROM file without making you pay - Dimitri is a godsend! I followed the instructions and everything worked perfectly.
The first thing I did was open the "MAIL" app (built in) and try to access my GMAIL account. It asked if I wanted to initiate WiFi, and for the first time it actually worked!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AHH!!!! No freeze/restart. Then I was so excited I could pee my pants man. Now I did quickly wonder if just opening Mail and trying to access WiFi (i.e. through a Palm-sourced app) was the cure, as I hadn't tried to use the mail app when Wi-Fi was crashing, I was trying Kinoma etc... Worth a try. I can't truly say that using Dimitri's ROM upgrade was the cure, but everything worked out and I am so glad. On an even brighter note, Dimitri's ROM upgrade come with NetFront 3 browser, which I hadn't heard of. Holy crap! It makes Blazer and Opera a complete joke. Web pages load up instantly like on your computer, web pages look normal- then on top of it, the ROM upgrade includes "Drive Mode," a program that on my iMac allows the SD card in my Palm to pop up on the desktop like a thumb drive, makes the TX an SD card reader through the USB hotsync cable. I wish I had discovered this ROM upgrade sooner, as I had already purchased Card Export, which is a wonderful program that does the exact same thing- only $10.00. So if you have no problems with your TX I'd still recommend just using Card Export, but its a rare thing for a bad situation to revert to an improvement! After all this crap, my TX is much more stable with the ROM upgrade, WiFi works again, the browser is finally a really great browser, and I will not badmouth my Palm Handheld. I love the **bleep** thing!

Broken Palm and crashed Hard Drive

Help Please! I ran over my Palm Z22 (oops!) and while all the info is still in there and I can turn it on, it does not respond to the touch screen. I can use the buttons for calendar and contacts and the on/off switch. Meanwhile, my computer also crashed and had to be wiped clean (lost all my Palm info). I've got my computer up and running and the Palm software loaded. However, all my calendar and contact info is on the broken palm and I can't do a hotsync using the touch screen hotsync button on the device. Is there a way to hotsync from the computer to pull the info out of my Palm?
It hasn't been a good week for my electronics! Thanks for any help you can provide!

Unfortunately there is no way to recover that data from the device other than manually enter it in. I went though all the options due to your keys work but there is no way to activate hotsync without the touchscreen.

Palm Desktop crashes on startup

Hello,
I am running Palm Desktop 6.2.2.0 under Win Vista, and have been for years. I have not installed any new software on either my Palm TX or my PC in weeks, maybe months. This morning I could open Palm Desktop just fine, this evening it crashes -- in MemoPad.dll. I ran DBFixIt but it finds no problems in my memos, and I can open all of them on my Palm. But every time I try to start up the desktop, I get a Windows APPCRASH box. Can anyone offer any suggestions where I should look? Many thanks!

Viewing Vista Folder Containing Palm Stuff Crashes Window Explorer

After I install the Palm software, it creates a directory in my Documents folder. When I open the Documents folder, Windows Explorer crashes. After I uninstall the Palm software, I have no further issues. So, I tried to be clever and create a folder called Palm Stuff and installed the software in that folder. This worked, excdept when I sync for the first time, it creates a new folder in the Documents folder for the synced info and I am back to where I was. How can I change where that folder is created when I sync?

There are registry entries that need to be deleted to completely remove Palm desktop. Here are the uninstall instructions.
You should first make a copy of your data to have just in case something
happens. You can find your data files by going to Start --> Documents -->
Palm OS Desktop. Highlight your Palm Desktop username and right click and
copy. Then go to your PC desktop right click on a blank spot and select paste.
Now you want to uninstall Palm Desktop and remove everything that has to do
with Palm Desktop from your computer.
Go to the following locations on the PC and delete the folders listed below.
C:\Program Files\Palm or Palm One
C:\Users\[Vista Login Name]\appdata\local\virtualstore\Program Files\Palm or
PalmOne
C:\Users\[Vista Login Name]\appdata
*Note you may need to view hidden folders to get to appdata. To do that go
into your control panel and open folder options. Go to view tab and uncheck
hide hidden files.
Once this is done you will need to delete some registry keys from your PC Operating System.
Word of warning, going here and deleting the wrong thing can cause your PC
from starting up, crashing and deletion of programs and data. If you feel
you are unsure of yourself, see if you have a friend that can help you or a
PC technician that you can pay to help you. This procedure will show them everything they need to delete. To make sure we have a good copy of the current registry, we need to do a backup of the Registry.
Go to start on the PC, in the search field type "regedit.exe" without quotes.
Highlight COMPUTER, go to File --> Export. Should pop up with a Save As box.
Current location is fine, should be in My Documents or save to a location you will remember. In the file name on the bottom type "backup[todaysdate]" i.e. backup07072008. Next, the hard part.
The easiest way to make sure your working with the correct key, highlight the key i.e. palm quick install, and press delete on your keyboard. It will ask you, are you sure. Say yes. Do the same thing for all keys below.
If you make a mistake, stop what you are doing. And call a PC technician.
BUT do not turn off your computer.
The reg keys are as follows (Note: some of theses reg keys will not be here
but if they are delete them)
* HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\U.S. Robotics\Palm Quick Install
* HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\U.S. Robotics\PalmOne File Transfer
* HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\U.S. Robotics\Pilot Desktop
* HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Palm
* HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Palm, Inc.
* HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\PalmDesktopAutorun
* HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\palmOne
* HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\PalmSource
* HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\PalmSource or anything else that says palm
Next reboot your computer.
Then reinstall your palm desktop from the CD and do a hotsync. When it asks for a username, use the name that is in the upper right corner of the hotsync application on your Centro.

Can't get my data out of palm tungsten c- palm desktop crashes

I have been a tungsten c user for many years. Now that HP has discontinued support, I would like to get my data out and transfer it to anothr device. I have backed up with hotsync on a daily basis. When I load palm desktop (PD), it crashes. I have 4 computers: a Dell 700 m with win xp, an optiplex with win xp, an optiplex with vista and a toshibal laptop with win7 64 bit. I have downloaded new copies of palm desktop 4.4, and tried the access version of 6 something. The desktop loads, waits 2 seconds, then I get the message .. has created an error and has to close. I checked, the MA file is there and seems to have the correct date. How do I get my data out if palm desktop will not start?
PS I disabled antivirus during installation, uninstalled the old version and rebooted before trying to open the PD.
Post relates to: Tungsten C

>
Well I went ahead and made separate methods to return each value. I suppose that will work just as well, especially since now I don't have to declare a bunch of strings and int's to hold the data and pass to the method.
>
Well this would never work anyway
public void getData(String n, int num, String c, String d)None of those can be changed within the method. Strings are immutable and 'int' is passed by value. Each of those parameters will have the same value after the method exits as they did before it was called.
Your book class should be using 'setters' to set the value of its instance variables.

TX Crashes After Hotsync

I was getting a lot of use out of my TX until one day, just as HotSync was completing, it crashed and just continued to reset and reset repeatedly. Whether it repeats a hard or soft reset I do not know, but I think it's a hard reset. I've since performed several manual hard resets on it, followed by HotSync, but the same thing happens every time. The TX shuts down and then restarts as if it had just been reset, but it never gets loaded. It just keeps resetting and resetting. Hotsync seemed to be working fine until it reached the end when the TX shuts down and starts cyclically resetting. Can anyone help me?

This question was solved.
View Solution.

To fix this what we need to do is hard reset your device. The instructions to do that is here http://kb.palm.com/wps/portal/kb/common/article/887_en.html this tells you how to do all types of resets. Also, what we need to do is rename your backup folder. What this folder is, it hold all your programs from the last time you synced your PC. On your computer go here My Computer--> C drive --> Program files --> Palm/PalmOne--> your hotsync user name --> and right click on your backup folder and rename it to "backupold" Resync your device to the same user name and you will get all your contacts, calendar, tasks, and memos.
You can install the programs again but make sure they are compatible with the device. Also try one program again and wait 24 hours to see if the same thing happens again. This way you know what program is causing the issue.

Palm TX crashing - line 942 Cannot Open Calendar library

For the last few weeks my Palm TX is crashing almost every other day. I can not find and easily recreate the problem, but when system crashes is usually when I try to access Calendar via hard button. Since I am also running "Reset Doctor" this is the message that is being recorded:
"DatebookUI.c, Line: 942, Cannot Open Calendar library"
Appreciate any feedback and maybe some points how to correct this problem.
Andrew

As with most problems that occur on a Palm PDA, it is either software or hardware related and we have to determine which one.
Best method is to first make a complete backup of your unit to your SD card using the free "NVBackup" (available from http://www.freewarepalm.com) After the backup is complete, Hard Reset the unit, then test to see if full functionality returns.
To perform a Hard Reset:
While pressing and holding the Power button down, tap and release the Reset button in back and continue to hold the Power button down. When the grey Palm logo appears, you can release the Power button.
You should now see the warning page in about 5 languages. Press the UP direction on the 5-way pad to complete the task. Your Palm will reset itself several times as it re-installs the original programs and erases all your previous data.
DO NOT HOTSYNC YET! Test the unit before reinstalling any software. If the unit works correctly, your problem is being caused by a "drug interaction" of software - maybe one rogue program, or a combination of several. You'll have to reinstall the third-party programs one or a few at a time to find the problem one. To avoid re-installing a software issue, rename your /Backup directory in your Palm folder (on a PC it's found here: C/Program Files/Palm(One)/"your HotSync ID name truncated"/Backup) to something like "/BackupOLD". Now perform the HotSync, choose your HotSync name you've been using, and all your PIM data will return, but not the third-party programs. Test for functionality again. If all is good, start installing the old programs from your /BackupOLD directory one (or a few if brave) at a time.
If the unit does not work after a Hard Reset is performed correctly, then it may be Hardware-related. (If it's a connection problem via either BlueTooth or Wifi, be sure nothing has changed on the unit you're trying to connect to!)
Hope this has helped,

Palm Desktop crashes when viewing one month in monthly view

Hi--this is a weird problem. Never seen it before.
--My Treo 680 (Win XP SP3), with Palm Desktop 6.2.2 seems to sync fine. I make changes in the Treo, it appears on the desktop.
--Also, I can view and edit the desktop in DAY view.
I normally default to monthly view though--and when I try to edit anything in a monthly view the Palm Desktop immediately crashes.This also seems to happen only with one month--July--where I recently added a lot of new appointments.
I ran the "check" tool for corrupted records, came up clean.
The data seems to be there and be safe and sync, but every time I try to access this one month from monthly view--it crashes.
Any advice, suggestions?
Post relates to: Treo 680 (Unlocked GSM)

Your link generated an error message..but I did find a couple of relevant threads. Thanks..
--I have no appointments spanning midnight, so I presume that's not the problem
--I'm reluctant to downgrade versions. I use the same software on my Vista laptop as on my XP desktop and I'd like to confuse the issue or go through degrading both.
The dbfix program was more interesting. It found for Calendar: one appointment in several places that it said "blob goes beyond end of record."
I don't know what that means, but it was particularly odd as this particular appointment was repeated in multiple years as long ago as 1969, it said--which goes beyond the ability of the desktop software even to access; certainly I wasn't using a Palm in 1969, and obviously it didn't exist. So I deleted all of them but for that 1969 one since the desktop will only go back to Jan 1970.
After deleting what I could delete on the desktop, I sync'd.
Didn't help.
I ran the program again and the exact same older--presumbably fictitious-appointments from old years like 2007 were still coming up as checked errors. Hmmm. Apparently deleting them on the desktop helped not at all. So now I deleted one on the 680 as a test.
I sync'd. Immediately crashed the Palm, but when it came came back up. I doublechecekd--that 2007 record was now gone from everything, desktop and PDA. I syncd again,,,went through fine this time.
Ran dbfix again to check--just coming with that one 1969 inexplicable error. Ran Palm Desktop now. Ran the Options/Tools/Check record on the desktop (included utility) just to be sure--no errors.
The final test--running Palm Desktop back in monthly view. Immediately crashed again.
Shrug!
Now, I don't mind buying the dbfix program if that'll do it, but does this seem like something it needs to go through and might actually fix, as opposed to my manually deleting the things?

Palm Desktop crashes on calendar 'month' view

I am running Desktop by ACCESS 6.2.2 on WinXP with AT&T Centro. There are random months in my desktop calendar that cause the desktop to crash when I select the 'Month' view (June '08, April '07, Nov '08). I can't find any common trend unique to these months, the 'day' and 'week' views work fine for these months. I have searched this forum and found a couple similar symptoms but no real solutions. I have uninstalled/re-installed Desktop, but no change. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Paul.

I've been having the same problem with Palm Desktop 6.2.2 on XP with my Centro. So I split up all the events that spanned midnight, as HardBeatZ suggested, and if fixed three of the six months that crashed. I've also run dbfixit, as he suggested in another thread, which found no corrupted records. Any other suggestions? I saw in that other thread (http://forums.palm.com/palm/board/message?board.id=software&message.id=27310&query.id=29789) the idea of trashing the months and re-entering events, but that seemed to be a different problem with Vista.
I see the suggestion here by patkosanke to revert to 4.1.4, which is what I previously had for my Tungsten E. What about all the warnings with my Centro that I had to install the included 6.2.2? Are those warnings not true for XP? And what about the change from dat to mdb files, if I were to revert? Reverting seems to postpone the inevitable transition to Vista, though.
Also, it seemed to me that 6.2.2 had more fields for phone numbers, for which I reformatted bunches of my contacts -- previously I had doubled up on some, but that doesn't allow them to be dialed. Is that a change from 4.1, in which case reverting might kill those fields, or is that possibly a change from my even earlier IIIx?
Thanks,

My Palm IIIxe crashed and I can't find my data...

I have a Palm IIIxe (yes, it's old) but it works or worked for me. I don't use it too often, maybe twice a month. When I tried to use it I noticed nothing happened when I turned it on. Dead Batteries. When I replaced the batteries I had no data. No problem, I'll just sync it to my computer (windows XP). After I went through the motions of sync. I got lots of errors and there was still no data on my handheld. I tried to open the Palm on my desktop, but got "Error: Failed to open Address Data Base". All I could do is click OK and the palm SW closed and sent an error report to Microsoft.... What do I do now, I have no access to my data. I still have the Desktop software v3.1 that came with the device and the handbook. I am temped to uninstall the SW and reinstall, but I don't want to loose all my data. Can anyone help???
Post relates to: Palm IIIxe

check the username assigned to the device.
open hotsync icon in the device and check the upper right hand corner.
remember that username.
warning: this process is very critical to your part as you no longer have information/data in your device.
you can opt to disregard this however, if you can perfectly execute this one there is a possibility that you can still recover your data.
you can also reopen the palm desktop software.
saving your username folder/data:
1. right click palm desktop icon and choose properties
2. click on find target button to open the palm folder
3. locate the username folder (similar or same to what you assigned to the device)
4. once you are able to identify the username folder, right click on that folder
5. choose copy and paste it to your desktop (you are now have a backup of your data in the desktop)
6. after copying is done, right click again the username folder and rename it to username-old
7. close everything in the PC
8. verify the username you copied in the desktop if it is there
9. attempt to open the palm desktop software
once the palm desktop is open then you are able to eliminate the corrupted files.
you can then check the contents of the username folder you saved in the desktop if the files in each folder have significant file sizes.
this is for you to make sure that you have significant data to import.
importing files from the saved username to the palm desktop:
1. open palm desktop
2. click or choose datebook
3. click file and choose import
4. in the look in drop down menu, locate the username folder you save in the desktop and open it
5. locate the datebook folder and open it
6. usually you will not see any files on it so in the filename field, type *.* to reveal all the files
7. locate the file datebook.dat or sometimes if the file extensions are not shown it will just show datebook
8. highlight that file and choose import
9. importation will then follow
10. check the files that you have imported
repeat the steps given on the other conduits like addresbook, todo list and memopad.

Palm Desktop Crash - unable to sync with handheld PalmOne Tungsten E2

Hello, this may have been addressed before, but I am not sure. A couple weeks ago I was in Palm Desktop when it just froze. Once I got out of it, I found that about 99% of my calendar datebook had been lost. I have tried to sync it again with my handheld Tungsten E2 to try to reinstall my info from handheld to desktop - but it just gets stuck on syncing the datebook. I had a computer geek look at it and he was unable to help me. I guess I could live without my former appointments and re-enter my future ones, but I can't sync anymore, it keeps hanging up at datebook. Any suggestions? I really appreciate your thoughts.....BTW I have a MAC with Vista installed through Bootcamp.

Post relates to: Tungsten E2

Hi,
Basically, the sync will stuck at Datebook when there are some corrupted Calender events on Palm device.
We have 2 options to fix this issue.
1) Hard Reset.
2) Use DbScan application to remove the corrupted calender events on Palm.
As many wouldn't like to do the hard reset as sometimes all the Calender events would be on Palm.
Hence, I suggest DbScan.
It's easy to fix the issue.
First we have to set the DateBook to Do Nothing in the HotSync Manager window.
To get to the HotSync Manager window follow the below steps:
Right click on the HotSync Manager in the Windows System Tray(on the lower right corner of your computer) and click on Settings.
This will open the HotSync Manager window.
And then click on Applications.
Make sure you select the correct sync user name in the HotSync Manager window at the top center.
Double click on Datebook.
check the box "Do Nothing"
And click on OK and Done button.
Now install the dbScan software from the below link.
http://www.palmgear.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=software.showsoftware&PartnerREF=&siteid=1&prodID=2351
Download the software with Guest user name.
Double click the dbScan.prc file it will goes to Install Tool.
Peform the sync.
This will install DBScan application on Palm.
Then, follow the below steps on your Palm device.
1.Tap on Dbscan application on the device.
If you see any message saying, it's an older version and you need to install a new version. Please ignore the message and go to next step.
2. Choose the option other.
3.Press the menu button on the device.
4.From the options menu choose "Remove all the deleted records"
5.Now choose the option "Palm source".
6.From the options menu again choose "Remove all the deleted records"
7.Now choose the option "Palm one".
8. From the options menu choose "Calender DB Blob check".
9.Tap on "Yes to all"
10. Try performing HotSync now.
This will fix the Datebook sync issue.

Corrupt datebook file - palm desktop crashes

I suddenly began having touble opening my palm desktop in Vista. I downloaded the new version without improvement. I then found this thread, which helped to some degree:
http://forums.palm.com/palm/board/message?board.id=software&thread.id=22183
I posted my problem there, but it maybe it is not getting viewed, so I will repost my problem here. It looks like my datebook file is corrupt, and I don't know how to fix it.
Here is the whole series of events:
Based on the directions by HardBeatZ from the link above, I deleted the datebook and address files from my palm folder. The desktop software then launched fine. I put the memo app as default. At this time I could access the (emtpy) address and datebook parts without problems. I then put back the address.mdb and datebook.mdb files and ran corrupted file tool - it didn't find any errors. When I go to the datebook on the desktop, the program crashes. (It goes to the addresses just fine). I deleted the datebook file again and renamed the datebook.mdb.bak file to be the datebook.mdb file. The program worked fine (could access datebook on desktop). I then hotsynched again....and crash city when going to the datebook. I tried re-running the corrupted file tool wihtout success. What now? It seems like the current datebook file, when downloaded from my treo, is corrupt (works fine in the treo, btw).
The datebook backup file is about 1 month, old, BTW, but I use the datebook fairly regularly and would rather not lose the changes over the last month if possible. Suggestions?

I know it is a lengthy process, but I'm out of ideas

I was thinking of doing that, but wanted to see if you had any more tricks up your sleeve! I compromised, and went through the my June events and deleted the ones I did not care about necessarily keeping. I left the important ones. I figured it was worth a shot - if things worked, I was done. If not, I would keep deleting until the month of June was event-free.... I am happy to say, that one of those less important events must have been the problem, because now the desktop software works fine!
