Palm Z22 and sync with Windows Vista 64-bit system

I have  been trying to sync my Palm Z22 with a new laptop that is running the 64-bit Vista.  Based on some posts I had located, I ordered an IrDA Wireless Bridge to try to resolve the connection problem.  Something isn't working right and I can't figure out how to fix the problem.  The IrDA adapter is listing in the hardware option on the computer so it appears to have installed correctly.  The laptop has inconsistently recognized the USB connection when I plug it in however.  I can not seem to get the IrDA adapter to recognize my Z22.  I've got the Z22 set up to use the infrared to transfer information.  I have noted that the "beam" feature is ON.  I have looked at APPS and have observed that most of those options are "locked" and when I have clicked on "contacts" for example, it says it's a locked app and can not be beamed.  I don't know if that is part of the problem  or unrelated.  I also happened to observe that the Apps are listed as what to transfer with MODEM connection but I'm not sure why that is even showing as a connection option since I've never used the modem to connect.
I can successfully use my Z22 to connect via USB cable to my Vista 32-bit computer system.  I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong in my attempts to use the adapter and connecting the Z22 with the new laptop. 
I'm not sure what else to do and would very much appreciate some help with this.  Could someone PLEASE tell me what I may be doing wrong re: the setup connection between the adapter and Z22 or any other ideas re: what the problem may be concerning why I'm not yet being successful in getting this setup to work...? 
Many thanks in advance for any assistance with this problem.

Sorry for the delay in replying (bet you were hoping this worked, huh?) but it has taken some time to uninstall & reinstall the Palm software and make numerous attempts to configure the information to again try to sync the Z22 with the laptop.  I went back to amazon.com and located the device I'd purchased to confirm it would work with the 64-bit Vista.  Someone had posted their success in using the adapter for exactly what I need to do - sync my Z22 with a 64-bit Vista computer.  That consumer's posting noted: "The USB 1510 provided the solution. As soon as I plugged it into the USB port of the laptop, Vista went online, found the driver, and installed it. I was able to set up IR Hotsync as I would have on any laptop with a built-in IRDA port."
I don't know what problem I'm having but have noted that my palm desktop software doesn't note what device (Z22) is to be connected and I can't find anything in the HotSync manager that allows me to specify that device.  For some reason, I had gotten an error message and it referenced a Treo connection which is odd since I don't have a Treo and I downloaded this Palm desktop from the Z22 site online...?  I did note my software on my Z22 is a v. 5 but when I checked various support sites online, it appears to indicate that version on my Z22 would be compatible with the Palm 6.2 version I just downloaded to my computer (and I can't find any information to indicate a newer software for my Z22 is available or how to do that either).
So, I'm back to not being able to get my Z22 to be recognized by my computer via the infrared adapter.  I'm hoping that some of the added information I've been able to provide may give another clue of something else I can try before I have to give up and contact Amazon to return this device and either try to decide what other device may be an option.  I had checked with a local computer supply store here but they don't carry any type of device for this purpose so that's why I resorted to searching online for a solution to this problem.
Thank you in advance for any assistance you may still be able to provide.  I really do appreciate your time with this matter.

  • Palm T/X Sync with Windows Vista - 64 processor

    I have a Palm T/X handheld and recently purchased a new computer that has Windows Vista operating system and a 64-bit processor. I tried to download the software that would allow me to HotSync my T/X with Windows Vista, but apparently this does not work with a 64-bit processor. Is Palm going to provide that software download soon, or if not, how do I get around this issue? Thanks

  • Bluetooth Sync with Windows Vista - 64 bit

    Recently found out that i have to use bluetooth to hot sync to my desktop PC.  It is a 64 bit Windows Vista.  I have the bluetooth device (USB), what do i need to do to the PALM device (T/X) to make sure the sync is appropriate?
    Post relates to: Palm TX

    Hi.. Welcome to the Palm forums.  First your computer has to have bluetooth compatibility,  if it is not built in then you will need to purchase a bluetooth dongle.  They are relatively cheap as I have seen them from $2 on up.  Next you would want to follow the following link as it has full instructions how to set it up as well as many other users that will be able to help answer your questions.

  • Can't HotSync my Tungsten E2 with my Windows Vista 64 Bit System and I'm Upset!!!!!

    By no choice of my own we were dealt the unfortunate hand of having to replace our last computer it died and to fix it was too much so against my better judgement we had to get an HP with Windows Vista 64 bit on it and there's a bunch of things that wont work with it and my Palm Tungsten E2 is one of those things that wont work. 
    I have looked on here before I asked what to do and I've seen something about syncing by bluetooth?  I'm not computer literate so you'll have to speak to me in terms I can understand.  I'm not an idiot but not computer savy.
    I know what a blue tooth is but here's where I'll sound "stupid" is it the same type of bluetooth as you'd use for your phone? 
    I'd really like to get this backed up on our computer because I have alot of info on it and I'm lost without it and I'm tinkled off that now I can't use it.
    Help if you can.
    Thanks,
    Michelle

    Hi Michelle, "BlueTooth" is not something you hold in your hand - it's a wireless radio network used for short-range data transfer.   Much like "FM" or "AM" radios.   There are dozens of devices nowadays that have BlueTooth built into them - GPS units, laptops, phones, PDA's, cars, etc.   (And yes, the little earpiece that people love to show off more often than necessary uses BlueTooth!)  
    Your option is to add BlueTooth capability to your laptop by purchasing a tiny "dongle".  (A dongle is a generic term for any little USB device that protrudes from your computer.)
    There are several ongoing threads about syncing to 'Vista 64 via BlueTooth in this section of the forum.  The key to success in purchasing a BlueTooth dongle is verifying that the dongle does support Vista64...

  • Help, hotsync palm treo 755p to my laptop with windows vista 64 bit.

    I am computer unsavy and could use some help.  I have a palm treo 755p that previously synced with my old dell laptop.  That computer broke, and I got a new HP with windows vista 64 bit.  Previously, the dell was running windows xp.  I have bought some new software, which I have downloaded to my laptop, and am trying to sync my palm to the new computer so that I can download the program to the computer.  However, after installing the Palm Hotsync Manager and other software, and when I trying to sync, the computer does not seem to recognized my palm, and times out after a while stating "the connection between your handheld computer and the desktop could not be established.  Please check your setup and try again.

    Palm OS devices will only sync to 64bit through Bluetooth. We have a stickie concerning this. It's the third topic down under windows hotsync. Does your computer have Bluetooth?

  • Flash player 11.0.1.152 installation problem with Windows Vista 64-Bit

    Hello,
    I just can't get Flash Player to install on my computer with Windows Vista 64-Bit - doesnt matter if I try with Firefox, Opera or IE (I usually use Firefox).
    The download isn't a problem, but when I start the downloaded .exe, this file just disappears from my download folder and nothing happens - besides starting a process called install_flashplayer11x32_mssd_aih_3.exe, which does nothing. The usual installation popup never appears. After that I can't try starting the installation again, until disabling the process via task manager ("Only a single instance of this application may run"). Doesn't matter if I try the download and installation with or without "McAffe Security Plus" btw - same result.
    I never had such a problem before - Flash Player 10.3 was and is no problem to install and use.
    I have tried all the measures suggested in the troubleshooting section on the official site, including the advanced troubleshooting measures (uninstall old version, run as administrator, disabling software firewalls, disabling virus scanner etc.). Nothing helps.
    I don't got those problems with my laptop running Windows 7 - just my desktop computer with Vista 64-Bit.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Try using the installers from the links in http://forums.adobe.com/thread/909550

  • Tungsten t3 will not sync with Windows 7 64 bit using cradle sync

    Tungsten t3 will not sync with Windows 7 64 bit using cradle sync any suggestions?

    Try a low-tech solution.  Check the condition of the HotSync port connection on both the T3 and the cradle.
    Look for any possible corrosion, coating, or bent fingers in the cradle.  Sometimes a good cleaning with either Contact cleaner or isopropyl alcohol can work miracles!   (Use a q-tip swabbed in it, do not pour it onto the PDA).

    View Solution.

    Hi,
    Try the following.
    First, uninstall Skype and when this has completed, restart the notebook.
    When windows has reloaded, download and reinstall the Chipset driver Here.
    When the installation has finished, restart the notebook again.
    Let windows fully load, then download the IDT Audio installer on the link below and save it to your Downloads folder.
    http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp45001-45500/sp45044.exe
    When done, open windows Control Panel, open Device Manager and open up Sound, Video and Game Controllers.  Right click the IDT device and select Uninstall - you should also get a prompt to remove the current driver, tick the box to allow this and then proceed with the uninstall.
    When complete, shut down the notebook, unplug the AC Adapter and then remove the battery.  Hold  down the Power button for 30 seconds.  Re-insert the battery, plug in the AC Adapter and start the notebook.
    Let Windows fully load, then open your Downloads folder, right click on the IDT installer and select 'Run as Administrator' to start the installation.  When this has completed, restart the notebook again.
    Reinstall Skype and see if the Mic now works Ok.

  • After rebooting my Windows Vista 64 bit system, could not access iTunes; after uninstalling I tried reinstalling, but it has been running for more than 24 hrs. Should I cancel installation?

    I had been updating my Windows Vista 64 bit system and as a result of a problem, had to reboot my system. Afterwards, I was no longer able to access iTunes.  I got a message stating that there was a problem with some of the files associated with the application.  A phone rep at Apple's Customer Service provided me with emails linking instructions on completely uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes. I did the uninstall, then checked for lingering iTunes files and couldn't completely remove some, but tried intalling the latest version of iTunes. It has been running for roughly 24 hours.  The status bar is green all the way across, and when I try to cancel, I get the following message: "Are you sure you want to cancel iTunes installation?"  I keep hitting "no," but am staring to wonder if there is a problem with the install.  Should it take this long if I have roughly 134 gigs of music?  I can still see the music in my computer's C drive, so I am worried that there is an error, perhpas because I didn't clear out all the lingering C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\ and all the lingering C:\Program Files\iTunes\.  Any thoughts?

    It is not just the HP. I have 3 HP computes and 2 Dell computers. 2 of the HP and 1 Dell suffer the iTunes internet block. Took me a while to figure it out also. But, the one thing that is different on the Dell, is that I can leave iTunes installed and not open it and everything works. As soon as I open it, internet access goes down. BUT secure sites (https:) works fine.

    Thank you Bob.
    Just to clarify - in terms of backing up one set of these, would that just be so I had it on disk and didn't need to re-download from Adobe if the installation got corrupted somehow?  Or do I need a backup for some other reason?
