Palm Z22 Desk Lost Data

I use Vista and Palm Z22. Recently I noticed that some information, strangely not all, that I inputted in Calendar, disappeared after a while. Please advise how to fix this problem as soon as you can.
Thank you.

I'm having the almost exact same problem. My boss was having no updates from repeated HotSyncs. Unfortunately, he asked for my assistance (I'm the "tech guy" but I have NO expereince with Palm). I looked at his Palm Desktop app. and noticed that in the "user" selection it was set to "None." I used the pull down menu to select his user name. ALL of the recently entered information disappeared! I could go back to the "None" slection and it looks like all of the files got updated at the moment I changes the user. Is there any way to get this data back?
The version of Palm Desktop is 4.2.2 running on Mac OS 10.4.11. The device is a Z22.

  • Hot synch problem - Palm Z22 - stalls on Date book synch....

    I have a palm Z22.   I've had it for several years.  Recently, I downloaded 6.2.  
    When I hotsync, everything comes up as it should but it freezes on the datebook synch.
    Here's what gets done in a nano second:
    Package installer
    Install
    Install Service Templates
    Install to card
    Hot Synch Exchange
    Date Book  - it aways stops here....13 green bars, 2 of 12 complete.
    Does anyone know how to correct it?
    Thanks,

    When I hotsync, and the display pops up, I seem to have some double items....
    My previous problem (fixed by dbfixit as suggested on this forum) was the hot sync was stalling on the second date book.
    I see that when it's hotsyncing, it is checking off one at a time...
    Should I delete the duplicates and how do I do that.  (they are not listed as duplicates on my hand held that I can see.
    All this is hard work for me, so appreciate this forum and all your help.  sdm

    It looks like you may have a bad installation of palm desktop and will need to re-install the program. Is all your data on the device as well as in palm desktop? Here is a procedure to backup the data from palm desktop.
    The best way to preserve your data is to export the data in each
    category in Palm Desktop to a seperate folder on your PC.
    Create a new folder on your PC somewhere that is convenient. Name
    it something like Palm Desktop Data. Copy and Paste the link
    below in a browser and follow the instructions on that page for
    the export procedure.
    http://www.palm.com/cgi-bin/cso_kbURL.cgi?ID=28734
    With the data saved in the folder you created, make a copy of
    that folder and save to a flash drive, cd-rw or external hard
    drive. Anytime you make a change in Palm Desktop, export the data
    that was changed to that folder and save again to the external
    media.
    With this process you can always import the data back into Palm
    Desktop anytime you have a problem with the data in Palm Desktop
    or if your computer/hard drive/device crashes.
    To uninstall palm desktop in XP, you will need to follow this procedure;
    1. Backup users folder located at one of these locations:
    C:\Palm\(palm desktop username folder)
    C:\program files\palmone\(palm desktop username folder)
    C:\program files\palm\(palm desktop username folder)
    2. Uninstall(remove) Palm desktop in control panel-add\remove programs.
    3. On the start menu, in the run box, type regedit.
    4. Before making any changes you need to backup the registry. Click on file-export and then save in a location you can remember, like My Documents.
    5. Now go to the following Keys and delete the Palm folders. Be very careful at this point.
    HKEY_Current_User\Software\(delete)Palm desktop autorun
    HKEY_Current_User\Software\(delete)Palm
    HKEY_Current_User\Software\(delete)Palmone
    HKEY_Current_User\Software\U.S.Robotics(delete Palm entries only)
    HKEY_Local_Machine\Software\(delete)Palmsource
    6. Close registry.
    7. Go to C:\ and  C:\Program files, see if the Palm folders are gone.
    8. Restart the PC
    9. Reinstall Palm Desktop.

  • Palm z22 restoring portion of lost calendar items

    Hello, I'm new here.  I have  palm z22 (v 4.5.2P) & I back up fairly regularly on my PC.  Learning from previous disasters, now when I back up, on my PC I "rename" my datebook (calendar) file from datebook.bak to datebook 02-03-10.bak (or whatever the current date is).  This allows me to save many backups so that if I get corrupt files on my handheld & do a sync, it won't overwrite my good backup file with a corrupt one.  The question I have is that the calendar (datebook) on my handheld is good for the last year or so, as well as in the future, but I recently discovered that everything has disappeared that was over a year (or so) old (except the recurring events).  I found my old datebook backup file from then, but I don't know how to restore to the calendar (datebook) on my handheld only the old items, without deleting the current and future items on my handheld.  Any help will be greatly appreciated.  Thanks, Bob 

    First we need to create a new username in Palm Desktop. I would suggest calling it test. Then close Palm Desktop, and find the username in the C drive(Should be near your username). Then delete all the files in the datebook folder. Then delete all the files in the datebook folder. Copy the datebook.bak file you need to the test username datebook folder. Rename the datebook.bak file to datebook.dat.
    Open Palm Desktop to see if your older data is in the Calendar. If it is then export it out by using file and export. Then move to your other username and then using import import the calendar you just exported in and you should be all set. Sync the data with desktop overwrites handheld and you should be done.
    Post back if you have any more questions.

  • Import data from Palm Z22

    Anybody know how I can import the contact, calendar and to do information from my old Palm Z22 PDA into the iPad 2?

    For anyone else still looking for a solution. I recently successfully added all my memos, tasks, datebook and address files from palm desktop to iPad. I uses a program called Dejaoffice which you can get as a trial. Use this to move all to your outlook files, tidy up then do a once only sync to iPad. After this you don't need Dejaoffice. However I did find it as a handy program....if you keep it watch out for duplicating data with outlook. Hope this helps all others to avoid a painful conversion program whilst grieving the loss of your faithful Palm and moving into the new Apple world.

  • Lost data

    I did a hot sync from my Z22 to Palm desktop on my pc.  All data was lost except for a few repeated activities.  I received the following message on the hot sync log:  -- Calendar
    - Some handheld records were not copied to your PC. Your computer may be full or you may have reached the maximum allowed records on the desktop. To correct this situation, delete some records and perform a HotSync operation again.
    Desktop = 10228, Handheld = 10227
    OK Calendar with 1 message(s)
    OK Contacts
    OK Tasks
    -- Backing up Saved Preferences to C:\Program Files\Palm\GibbsD\Backup\Saved_Preferences.PRC
    OK Backup
    I cannot delete any records because there aren't any to delete except the few remaining items that are weekly or biweekly.    Help! Is there anything I can do to retrieve all my data on the calender.  This problem only affected the calendar and nothing else.

    In Hotsync Manager change Calendar conduit action to Desktop Overwrites Handheld for one sync to push the Desktop side (which has more records) to the handheld.
    If this happens again you might look into DBFixIt from Pimlicosoftware.com.

  • Isync3/Ical no longer working with Palm z22

    I'm not sure when it started, but all of a sudden my ical stopped being able to sync with my Palm z22. It always used to give me an error message at sync, but I ignored it because it always transferred over 100% of the information I was using anyway (I only use calendar and address book).
    First it stopped syncing my contacts, and then finally it stopped syncing the main parts of my Ical. As far as I can tell it still brings over events but places them in the "undefined" tag at 7am that day, without any notes: totally useless.
    I tried everything I could think of last night after googling for four hours and eventually an Isyncing caused a fatal error on my Palm which lost my entire contact list. Which now renders the thing useless until I can restore it. I run a business and work out of it!
    The error I'm getting says this (I bolded the part I think is the problem, after multiple searches):
    "HotSync 3.2.1 started 8/17/08 9:01:14 AM

    Please help - as I said I run my business out of Ical, address book and the ability to sync with my palm.

    Internet searches for hours provided absolutely no help either.
    I'm actually really cheesed that no one seems to have paid any attention to this issue.
    I ended up having to hard-reset my device (everything is backed up on the computer and I can't sync anything new so it's USELESS to me now), reinstall everything from scratch and try again : now I don't get an error message, but when it comes across the "iscync conduit" message on the hotsync message it lags for a LOOOOONNNNGGGGG time. Several minutes at least. The first few times I reset it thinking it was frozen.
    And then at the end of all that nothing transfers anyway!
    So, I'm done. I'm selling it to someone else. It's now a useless device to me thanks to whatever changed in Mac recently.

  • Broken Palm z22?

    My palm z22 can turn on, but won't go past the "palm powered" display. I have countlessly reset it as well as wait till it was charged to reset and then wait till it ran out of power and charged again, then reset! I even tried pressing the power and the reset button at the same time. Nothing changed. It's still stuck at "palm powered" and constantly on wasting power. Please help!
    Post relates to: Palm Z22

    There is some timing involved with performing a correct Hard Reset.
    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.

  • Palm Z22 frozen touch screen

    To add to this.....I just performed a hard reset and after confirming that I wanted to delete all data, it then asked me to "Tap the center of the target" with the stylus.  The target just keeps alternating between top left corner and bottom right corner in an endless loop and won't leave that screen no matter how many times I tap the target.  Is my Z22 gone for good?
    Thanks for any help.

  • Palm Z22 screen problems.

    Hello i own a Palm Z22. yesterday the screen on it stoped working. i was playing solitair on it the night before the screen stoped working. i had left it on my living room table. i have tried resetting the device but that has not worked. is there anything i can do to fix it? Or do i need to have it replaced? i use the device for my job so i really need to fix it.
    Thanks,
    Morgan L.
    Post relates to: Palm Z22

    Have you done a soft or hard reset of the device yet? To do a soft reset if you do not know how to do one, is you put the stylus in the reset hole in the back of the device. If you do not know what a hard reset is go here http://www.palm.com/cgi-bin/cso_kbURL.cgi?ID=887. Now I should tell you this will remove everything from the device and restore it back to factory settings. So you should sync it to a computer so you have your data backed up.
    If you did a soft and hard resets and the problem is still not resolved you need to have the device repaired or replaced. You can call into our support at 866-935-7256.

    My Palm Z22 - When I tap the memo icon the screen goes blank and I have to do a soft reset to get the Palm working. Everything else works fine. It sees I lost all my memos. What can I do?
    Post relates to: Palm Z22

    Hello and welcome to the Palm forums.
    Have you recently added something to your memos? It seems like there is a corrupt file in your memos.
    Do you have your memos saved on your computer - were they sync'd to the computer before?

  • Palm Z22 won't power up

    My Palm Z22 will not power up.  It was working yesterday morning and just shut off while at my desk.  I thought it might be the battery so I plugged it in to charge it, but it still won't power up at all.  Is there some sort of reset button?
    Post relates to: Palm Z22

    Look at the back of the device for the tiny hole marked "Reset"... Press gently with a paperclip, etc. and release.

  • PALM Z22 HOW TO CREATE CALENDAR EVENTS THEN UPLOAD THEM TO THE PALM Z22

    Hello, I would like to know if anyone can advise me on how to create calendar events in say, excel, and then upload them to my Palm Z22.  The reason I want to create them in excel is so that I can also update the file information to my cell phone as well.
    Thanks for your assistance.....

    Hello Tony,
    If you want to use Excel, then I would suggest that you export your calendar spreadsheet as a comma separated values (.csv) file and then import that data into the Calendar application in Palm Desktop.  Then Hotsync your Palm.
