Palm TX won't connect to computer via WiFi for Hotsync

I've tried the network Hotsync on all my computers, XP, Vista 32 and Vista 64 (which started the whole attempt) and the device fails to connect to the computer, even when I put in the IP address.
My wireless network sees the Palm and I am able to access the Internet through it, but it won't connect to my computers. Any suggestions?

Here's my Wifi Hotsync help file:
Wifi HotSync with a TX
1. On your PC, locate the HotSync Manager (little HotSync icon in the lower right tool tray on a Winbox). Click on it and check off "Network", then click again and select Setup.
2. Pick the Network tab up top in the window that opens, and find your HotSync name in the list. Make sure it's checked.
3. Tap the TCP/IP button, and look at the IP address listed for "Primary PC Address". Write it down.
4. Turn on Wifi on your Palm and connect to your router.
5. On your Palm, select the HotSync program and tap the word "Network" above the HotSync icon in the middle of the screen. Below it, enter the IP address you wrote down in step 3. (Include the periods!).
6. Tap the big HotSync icon above the IP address, and hold on!
7. If you're holding on, and nothing happens try a wired HotSync, then try the Wifi HotSync again. Sometimes, information has to transfer from your PC after you check off the Network option. Also, be sure to watch for any Firewall activity asking you about "HotSync.exe is trying to access your hard drive" etc. You may need to set a rule to allow it.
On your TX, check these settings from the pull-down menu in Hotsync:
Modem Sync: Network
LanSync: :LANSync
Network Setup: (Wifi should be listed as one of the networks)

  • My iMac won't connect to Youtube via wifi. Ethernet is ok.

    For reasons I cannot discover, I cannot open Youtube.com via wifi on my iMac. It will open when ethernet is connected. This is the only site that seems to be affected. It stalls for a second or two, then I get a blank screen and the URL changes to www.youtube.com/?tab=w1. I read through every forum I can find, tinkered with the network settings, deleted cache files for the browsers, etc. Firefox, Safari and Chrome all do the same thing. It was working fine for awhile and I don't believe that we changed anything that caused this, so I am at a loss. Has anyone else had this issue and know how to solve it?

    Hi, this has worked for a few...
    Make a New Location, Using network locations in Mac OS X ...
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2712
    10.7…
    System Preferences>Network, top of window>Locations>Edit Locations, little plus icon, give it a name.
    10.5.x/10.6.x/10.7.x instructions...
    System Preferences>Network, click on the little gear at the bottom next to the + & - icons, (unlock lock first if locked), choose Set Service Order.
    The interface that connects to the Internet should be dragged to the top of the list.
    Instead of joining your Network from the list, click the WiFi icon at the top, and click join other network. Fill in everything as needed.
    For 10.5/10.6, System Preferences>Network, unlock the lock if need be, highlight the Interface you use to connect to Internet, click on the advanced button, click on the DNS tab, click on the little plus icon, then add these numbers...
    208.67.222.222
    208.67.220.220
    Click OK.
    Also, turn off IPv6:
    System Preferences » Network » AirPort » TCP/IP tab » Configure IPv6
    Or whatever Interface you use.

  • Downloaded 8.0.2, able to continue to connect to internet via wifi for approx. 2 hours, then, wham, no wifi connection, and when I attempt to join my wifi network, and enter my code, i am told that the code is incorrect.  I rebooted my IPad 3, nogo!

    I uploaded 8.0.2, able to continue to use my IPad 3, use internet, WiFi connectivity OK.  Then, about 1 1/2 hours later, I loose internet connection, and WiFi connectivity.   I rebooted the IPad and attempted to rejoin my WiFi network...no go, message says my password is wrong!!  I then, pursuant to a suggestion in the message boards, entered "Forget Network" and then attempted to again join my WiFi.   Again, message says "password is wrong"   Password is correct; I am on the internet on my desktop via my WiFi network!!    Is the 8.0.2 "update" defective and/or compromised??     My partner, who has an IPad Air, also updated to 8.0.2 this afternoon and has had the same problem!!!

    Actually, we up-loaded the new OS in the early evening!   We now have WiFi connectivity, and this is how it was achieved:   turned off the power to our WiFi modem, then turned it back on; wifi booted up; in IPad's Settings, WiFi:  toggled the Wi-Fi button off, waited a short while and toggled it back on; choose our network and entered our passcode...IPad finally accepted the passcode.  However, at the top left-hand portion of the screen, we now have a "No Service" statement, yet we are wifi connected and have internet service on our various apps!      

  • Won't connect to ipad via Bluetooth

    why won't my iPhone connect to my iPad via Bluetoot?

    Well, I should have asked Pagancelt not sleeky as he said above he says he DID it.

    Re: iPad won't connect to iMac via bluetooth 
    Apr 29, 2012 3:35 PM (in response to mccass)
    I was successful in connecting my iPad and 27" iMac via bluetooth for the purpose of internet sharing, so it can be done. I was able to use my iMac's free wifi connection (which the iPad couldn't pick up, as I don't want to stand by the window) to get internet on the iPad. I forget how, unfortunately, which is why I'm back in the forums - my connection went down!
    *Edit: Foolish me. My iMac shows up under "Devices" on the iPad Bluetooth pane in General Settings. All I had to do was tap it to revive the connection (since I paired the devices the first time I set up the connection). iPad is now getting internet off iMac again :-)

  • IPod 4G screen is white, Won't connect to computer, wasn't restoring or in dfu. How to fix?

    iPod 4G screen is white, won't connect to computer(Even though it's plugged in) no restoring was in process at the minute, and won't react to anything(Including turning on/off, no DFU, no Restoring, Home and power button aren't doing anything) How do I fix it?
    Today, I was "screwing around" with an iron. When I pryed it open, (I'm guessing it must've hit my iPod 4G on the ironing board, I know, stupid decision) Next thing I knew, my iPod screen was white, or turning white, from an app I was in. I started freaking out because it wouldn't turn off or on. The sliding thing didn't even appear. I tried doing the "hold home and power button for ___ seconds" which didn't do anything, I tried plugging it into the computer, but the computer couldn't even tell it was plugged in. No restore or anything. It's currently white while I'm typing this... It's been about maybe a hour since it's been white. Any help or suggestions please? I'm not looking forward to taking it apart because recently I got the iPod fixed from when I had accidently shut it into the car door when it was in the pocket of my cardigan, which got caught in the door.
    The back has a big diagnol dent across it, and I'm at a young age and not very experienced with this field, so I'm not opening anything. Again, this would reeeaaalllly help if anyone could help me with this issue! Thanks!

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Airport Express as an end point on a wireless network and connect a computer via the ethernet port?

    Can I use my Airport Express as an end point on a wireless network and connect a computer via the ethernet port? - I'm wanting to connect a computer that does not have wireless and is in another building.

    The requirements for this to work are:
    1) The AirPort Express must be the 802.11"n" version. Model Number is A1264
    2) There must be adequate wireless signal stength where the Express will be located
    3) The Express must be configured to "join" the wireless network with the option checked to activate the Ethernet port

  • IPhone no longer connects to iTunes via Wifi

    On July 1,12 my iTunes did an automatic update.  After the computer restarting and I entered iTunes and the following messages appeared:
    Message 1: Must reinstall itunes to connect to ipod or mobile devices.
    Message 2: CD/DVD folder must be located in itunes folder in order to use with itunes
    I have 2 iphones (both 4s, bought at same time, both running iOS 5.1.1)and one will briefly connect to itunes via Wifi (I will identify this one as iphone1) but the other one will not (I will identify this one as iphone2).  I have a PC with Windows 7.
    When iphone1 is connected to itunes via wifi is disconnects randomly.  Under: Summary > Version, it has the message: Connect this iphone using a USB cable in order to update or restore its software.  When I have it connected with the USB cable, there are no problems. The settings selected under: Summary > Options > are: Open iTunes when this iphone is connected, Sync with this iphone over Wi-Fi,  & Manually manage music and videos.  The Setting under Backup > Back up to this computer (where it backs up to; I do not know)
    iphone2 does not connect via Wifi but used to.  It connects without issues with the USB. The Settings in iTunes > Summary are the same as iphone2 except that iphone2 is set as Backup > Back up to iCloud.
    My iphone2 is my primary device.  I use it exclusively; for music, taking photos, syncing photos to my Photo Stream folder on my PC, etc.  The iphone1 is my spouse's secondary phone, so its not used as often (ie: only has 4 songs downloaded, used to take the odd picture, has a mirror image of apps from iphone2).
    I searched Apple Support and tried the following solutions that didn't solve this problem:
    How to restart the Apple Mobile Device Service (AMDS) on Windows (support.apple.com/kb/TS1567) &
    Set the Apple Mobile Device Service Startup type to Automatic
    I have not done this: Remove and reinstall iTunes and AMDS. I did goto the: iTunes for Windows: Device Connectivity Tests > iOS > iPhone - iTunes Troubleshooting Assistantand into iTunes > Help > Run Diagnostics.  The results were: All tests passed. (My iphone2 was plugged in with USB. The iphone1 was connected via WiFi.)
    What do I do now?  Do I need to remove and reinstall iTunes? and if so will I lose all my itunes info (videos, music, apps, settings) or will it just show up after I install iTunes?

    Hi Mitch,
    It sounds like you have already done many of the steps, but I would like you to look at this article -

  • Connect two machines via WiFi

    I've forgotten the magic routine to connect two machines via WiFi.
    Have Sharing turned on, multiple tries with Go > Network. Nothing.
    Cannot see Machine A from Machine B. Clearly I've forgotten how to walk & chew gum at the same time.

    Is there a Router involved?
    If not then under the Airport icon in the Menu Bar, choose "Create Network, that is for Computer to Computer, then shortly there after, the other one will "see" it.
    In System Preferences>Sharing, turn both Personal File Sharing &Personal Web Sharing to advertise the fact.
    For full access, sign in from Computer #1 with Computer #2's Username & Computer #2's Password & vice versa.

    When you use the Airport utility what happens?
    What is in the System Preferences control panel for Network settings?

    Airport Express FAQ

    Wi-Fi Setup Considerations
    Things to consider before you begin
    Start with a plan for the physical layout. Depending on whether you have an existing Wi-Fi network, or if you are using your AirPort Express as a standalone Wi-Fi device, there are several options available for you to choose from.
    When using Ethernet, Cat6 cable is recommended.
    The layout you choose should take into account environmental factors such as physical access, location, range, radio frequency interference, etc.
    You will need to consider what AirPort Utility settings to adopt.
    You will need to know whether you are using an AirPort Express (802.11b/g) or an AirPort Express (802.11a/b/g/n).
    If you will be using more than one Wi-Fi base station, it may be helpful to read the article Extending the range of your wireless network by adding additional Wi-Fi base stations.

    Hello, Nectar bits. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    I see you have tried some troubleshooting steps already with there issue persisting.  Here are some additional troubleshooting steps to go through when experiencing this issue.  They are labeled for the iPhone, but apply to the iPad as well. 
    Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
    Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
    Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIs and corrosion.
    Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
    After at least 30 minutes, if:
    The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
    The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
    Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
    If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
    If the display turns on, go to step 4.
    If the display remains black, go to next step.
    Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
    If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
    If the issue persists, see the section labeled Issue not resolved.

    I have a problem in connecting to internet via WiFi. This week I received my new "iPhone 6 and 6 plus". Problem is the new phones doesn't connect to internet via my home WiFi  while I don't have any problem on my other devices. The phones connect to WiFi but most of Apps can't connect to internet.
