Photos not in Palm Desktop

Have Zire 71, software version 4.1. Saw ad to upgrade to 4.1.1e & did so. Horrible results. Reloaded original Palm software but my photos do not appear in Palm Desktop even after successful (?) synch. Photos are in handheld and Explorer shows them in Palm/Photos.

Hello 14931, Welcome to the Palm Community Forum.
The dowload versions of Palm Desktop do not include a Media conduit with them, thus no transfer of photos.
I'd suggest a clean uninstall/reinstall of your original Palm Desktop. Instructions for a clean uninstall here:

Palm not syncing + Palm Desktop won't open (error message says FILE IS BUSY)

Drama players = Tungsten e2+Mac OS X 10.5.4
Tungsten e2+Mac OS X 10.4.1
Hi,
I've been trying to hotsync my palm to Mac laptop for a few hours everyday for 5 days now - I've visited all the forums, bought a new laptop (this was incidental rather than caused by the palm problem)
...At first I got the "transport monitor" missing error - I followed support forums' suggestions. It didn't work. Hotsync would not happen; and neither would palm desktop open. i don't use any other programs to sync (not isync, not outlook, etc) Only ever use Palm for like 10 years now.
This problem persisted in both my 3-yr old mac and the brand new mac-
I also tried installing pam desktop from the online palm support site.
I've since re-installed palm desktop a few times and handheld says "hotsync operation complete" However, Palm Desktop will not open and I get this error -- "file is busy"
Please please help - I've recently decided to allow my palm to rule my life again (we do international events and we're bringing in Australia's #1dj in a few weeks) --I'm desperate for a solution -
Thank you!!

hi - it may be because you responded to me thinking it was a Treo, but your advice did not work...

Photo not showing in desktop

Hi
One of my photos will not show in the screen save/desktop, I was wondering why. I did do a new version from master and then it showed, but what i would like to know is why?
Ta

Hard to tell. Only Images with Previews will show in shared applications such as Screen Saver. You might try selecting the "no-show" Image and running "Photo→Generate Preview". You have to hold down the Option key for that menu item to show.

Lightroom photos not syncing to desktop

The small collection of photos I have managed to sync up to Creative Cloud will not sync to Lightroom desktop despite the switch being on in the top left window. Is this because I'm only on the trial version?

I removed the link from your post - please always share it privately.
What you should try to do is to
1. Uncheck your Collection called "My Photo Stream" from syncing if its visible in LrD
2. Shut down Lr Desktop
3. Then delete the Sync.lrdata file:
Win: C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\Adobe\Lightroom\Caches\Sync Data\Sync.lrdata
Mac: /Users/<user>/Library/Caches/Adobe/Lightroom/Sync Data/Sync.lrdata
4. Restart Lr Desktop and start to sync
Thanks,

Quick question: why did you change to 6.2.2? This version was designed for Vista and beyond.
If you're still running XP, there is no real reason to change!

What to do with Palm Desktop data when I upgrade to Mac OS 10.6 Snow Leopard

I have an old Tungsten handheld device but only use Palm Desktop on my Mac. I have a lot of data stored in this format and do not want to lose this functionality when I upgrade to Snow Leopard, which, I understand, does not support Palm Desktop. Ideally, I'd like to export my Palm Desktop data (address book, memos, to do list, and calendar) to another software package that will run on Snow Leopard. I do not need any syncing capability. What are my options?
Thanks!

Palm Desktop 4.1.4 Install Aborts, Win Installer missing Palm Desktop.msi

I have been running Palm Desktop 4.1.4 on my Windows XP PC, and doing regular
Hot Sync to my Palm IIIxe handheld. However, I had to have my PC recovered recently,
and the Palm Desktop did NOT look like it got recovered along with the rest of my programs.
I downloaded PalmDesktopWin414EN.exe to my PC, and tried to do a re-install via the
native MS Windows XP Control Panel->Add/Remove Programs interface.
The Install Shield Wizard starts up properly, and I see the Progress bar, but
then Windows Installer stops, and complains about a missing file:
"The installation source for this product is not available (Palm Desktop.msi). Verify
that the source exists and that you can access it."
Sure enough, I do a Search, and I can find the Installer File Palm Desktop.msi
nowhere on my PC. Any suggestions on how to overcome this Windows Installer
block?
MY ENVIRONMENT
I do have the following Palm CDs, just in case they are needed, but I would prefer getting
this to work strictly by using the Palm 4.1.4 executable:
a. Palm Desktop 3.1 Aug 2000 CD
b. Palm OS Upgrade CD with
    1. Palm OS 4.1 upgrade
    2. Palm Desktop SW v4.0.1
My Palm IIIxe is still powered on battery, and still contains all my Applications right now,
so my problem is strictly getting my PC to come up on Palm Desktop 4.1.4 again, if
possible. Even if Palm Desktop comes up with null data, I could do a Hot Sync from
Palm Handheld back to the PC in order to refresh all the application data.
Suggestions?

Trust me. I am NO computer teck type in even the slightest sense of the word. So the following suggestion may be completely lacking in helpfulness, BUT -- it may be necessary for you to "relive" the original process of earliest installation and by that I mean the first installation CD that came with the handheld. Verify that it WORKS with no issues. THEN upgrade with the 4.1.4 install and you might find yourself cured.

Media files not showing in Palm desktop

I have done a successful sync between iMac and TX, and have Palm Desktop 4.2.1. Everything shows up in desktop except the media files (which were there with Palm Desktop using Windows XP on my old computer). I was able to transfer a photo from the Mac to the TX successfully. Why aren't the media files showing up in Palm Desktop?

The MAC version (4.2.1) of the Palm DT does not support media. However you can move photos as you have already seen by using the quick install tool.

Palm Desktop software not responding when clicking on "Media"

I have a Palm Centro (Sprint) and am trying to get a photo that I took on my phone transferred to my computer. I recently updated my software to Palm Desktop by Access v6.2.2. When I try to get into the "Media" section, the software locks up and I get a "not responding" message. Everything else (contacts and calendar, which is all I care about) seems to be working fine.
How can I get my photos off my phone? Thanks for any help.
Post relates to: Centro (Sprint)

Hello khodes and welcome to the Palm forum.
I don't have a Centro so I can't test whether or not Palm Desktop will hang when I click the Media icon in Palm Desktop. It seems to be working here, but I'm using Palm Desktop 6.2.2 on Windows Vista with a Treo 755p.
One work around is to use a card reader/writer to copy the data from your card to your computer. Do you know if you are saving the photos you are taking with your Centro to a microSD card? If so, all the photos should be in a folder called DCIM on your card.

Centro will not sync with Palm desktop - Calendar and/or Contacts

I have used a Palm device for many years. Acquired a new Centro. Upon installation of Palm Desktop (on Windows XP) that came with Centro, all contacts, calendar, to do, memos, etc transferred to the Centro during installation.
Subsequent changes to contacts and/or calendar on Centro are not syncing with Palm desktop when Hot Sync is performed. Hot Sync starts and appears to complete normally. To Do list and memos appear to sync just fine. Have tried changing conduits to have Centro overwrite desktop. Have uninstalled/reinstalled Desktop many times.

I have a Centro/Verizon Wireless using Versamail with accounts established for personal POP and Exchange e-mail synchronization. The latter account is for work. Previously I owned a Treo 650p using Versamail.
When I first installed Palm OS Desktop and synched to my Centro device, it was on a Windows XP home computer, and no Versamail accounts were defined. First I downloaded and installed the Versamail version which allowed Exchange synchronization. I exported the Treo650p contacts list to a disk file, and imported it onto the Windows XP home computer into the Palm OS Desktop installed with the Centro-supplied CD. This synched the imported contacts list to the Centro fine. After I defined all the POP and Exchange accounts, synchronization with the office Exchange contacts list worked fine, and still does. Synchronization with the windows XP home computer for contacts seems to still be ok, too regardless of the MS Exchange Versamail account commingling with my personal POP accounts. Maybe the install sequence is overriding the previous posts' notation that MS Exchange mail definition will override synch with Palm OS Desktop?
The problem now is I have a different/second home computer that's Vista os. I installed the Palm OS Desktop and synch with the Treo. The contacts list is not synching to this second home computer, maybe because I didn't follow the exact same sequence as for the Windows XP pc? I can still synch my Centro with my Windows XP pc and that includes contacts.
Is there a way on this second pc to override the MS Exchange contacts override for synchronization without having to go through the exact same install sequence as occurred on the Windows XP machine?

Palm Desktop 6.2.2 on Win8.1 syncing but not displaying data

I'm so pleased to have found this forum. I didn't realise there was so much love for old Palm devices. I started with a Palm V and worked my way up to a Tungsten T & palm Desktop 4.1.4 on WInXP and everything has been so good that I've resisted moving away from Palm Desktop as it does everything I need. But I've just bought a new Win8.1 PC and am having some problems that I hope someone here can help with.
I've been through the help here about installing Palm Desktop 6.2.2 and the win8 driver and the installation was very smooth and I could hotsync via usb with no apparent problem, except that Palm Desktop is not displaying any of my palm data!
When I first ran hotsync (from the palm cradle button) it asked for a user name. My Tungsten T was already being used on my XP PC and was full of data. So I entered the Tungsten user name and hotsync continued. it took a couple of minutes or so (as would be expected) and when complete it said everything was ok. I checked the Hotsync logand it confirmed everything was synchronised correctly - but when I opened Palm Desktop there was no data being displayed.
I then checked the data files in ...documents\Palm OS Desktop\.... and the address and datebook files are present and full of my data. I even opened them using Notepad and could easily see loads of ascii text amongst all the 'junk' characters, so it looks as if the sync process has worked correctly but nothing from my Tungsten is being displayed in the Palm Desktop.
I then added an event in the datebook in Palm Desktop and another event on the same day in the Tungsten. I then did another hotsync. It was reported as successful but the Tungsten event did not appear in the Desktop although the Desktop even DID appear on the Tungsten. So the sync process seems to be only working one way!
I've never had this happen before and would really appreciate any help.
This question was solved.

OK, try using the "Palm Hotsync Setup" program found on this page.
Since you are using an older T|T, this may be the answer.
There is a guide available from this website for migrating PalmOS data to Android, if interested. I made that jump years ago when webOS was ended. You can find it on their Home page.

Contacts and Calendar not synching. (Centro, Windows XP, Palm Desktop 6.2.2) Please help!

I originally posted on the Hotsync forum, and it was suggested that I post my question here. Important information: My office uses Microsoft Outlook Exchange, and I have my Centro set up to get my emails. It also wants to sync my contacts and calendar; however, that is completely unneeded for my purposes. I need to synch my Contacts and Calendar with my Palm Desktop. If there is something I have to check or uncheck to do so, please tell me how.
This is my original post:
"When I hotsynch, my memopad, my documents to go, everything seems to synch except my contacts and calendar.
After a few hours on the phone with tech support at sprint, we went for the nuclear option, hard reset, and the temporarily solved the problem, but now it has returned.
Information that might be important:
I'm getting a failed to backup 1 file error>PmTraceDatabase>Protocol Error: Handheld file could not be opened (4004)>SYNCERR_FILE_NOT_OPEN. This may or may not be relevent.
Anyway, I appreciate any help with this. I depend on this PDA phone to keep me organized and there's a slight and embarrasing touch of panic to how I feel now that it is not working correctly."
Post relates to: VisorPhone

Okay, I'm continuing to do research on this, and here's my suspicion, maybe true or maybe false. When I set up versamail to get mail from my office's exchange server, it also configured my contact list and calendar to sync as well, and synching with the the exchange server and synching with my desktop software are mutually exclusive.
If this IS true, then hopefully there is a way to set it up so I synch my email only with the exchange server, and leave my contact list and calendar configured to synch with my desktop software.
Any feedback or assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Palm Desktop Will Not Open on Windows XP Pro

I have recently upgraded my Treo 700P to a Centro. I completely removed all palm software on my computer, rebooted and then reinstalled it. It has been working with no problem until today. I haven't installed any new software or removed any from my phone. When I try to open the desktop on my computer it freezes at the splash screen and then I get the Windows error message asking me if I want to send a report to Microsoft or not. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling software. I ran a scan disk. Nothing I do, seems to change anything. I started my computer in safe mode and tried to open it there and still won't open. I looked at my event log and I get this same log entry every time I try to open it. I noticed on the Palm website that there is a version higher than the software on my phone, but it doesn't seem to install onto my phone during the hotsync and regardless, I don't think one thing has anything to do with the other. I have checked that my files are not read-only and that I have full admin rights on my laptop. Why did this just occur out of the clear blue sky? How do I fix it?

Try this, Locate the palm folder. (C:/Program files/Palm or Palmone/*hotsync username*
Copy the contents of your hotsync username then delete it from the original location. (Repeat for each user you have) Then try to open the Palm desktop. It should prompt you to create a new username.

Palm m500, Palm Desktop 4.1.4e, Windows 7 (32bit) - Look-up to go to a particular Contact is not working

I hope I am posting to the most appropriate area!
My contacts appear to be fine. When I try to type in a letter in the look-up box to bring me to the contact name, it does not go to the correct letter I type in.
My keyboard types the correct letter in the look-up box but it does not take me to the contacts that start with that letter.
I tried 4.1.4 (no e) and found the same problem. I ran the palmhotsyncsetup.exe and it appears that all of the contacts synced.
I am frustrated so any direction would be appreciated.
Post relates to: Palm m500

I am also having the same trouble. Using Palm Desktop 6.2.2 by Access on two Win 7 compters that as far as I know are the same. Using a Treo 655p between the two computers, sync working perfectly with bluetooth. In Contacts on one computer the lookup works perfectly, yet on the other computer the lookup which used to work began to bring up its own selection of contacts regardless of what I put in the lookup field. This problem was mentioned in the forum 11-12-2009 by Laurentiu but as fare as I could find was ignored. I even exported the contacts from the working machine, created a new user on the non-working machine and then imported the contacts and it still fails. I was hoping that doing this would regenerate the index, but that does not seem to be the problem either.
This seems to be either a problem relating to the Palm Desktop itself or maybe an add-in of some sorts, I wonder if I will need to re-install? Interesting (and good) that the other computer continues to work fine.
