Please, please help me with my E2 sync problems

I'm at my wits end. For some reason, both of my E2's started having sync problems. I've used Palms for years and loved them. I'm one step from throwing both in the trash and never buying another Palm product. Quick background- I've reloaded the palm desktop software with 6.2 and with 4.2.1 and about the best I've done is to get one synch before it refuses to go further. Here lately I can't even get that. I borrowed an old Palm software CD hoping that would help- I couldn't even import my files. Also- I went back to import my backups, and only one contact showed up. I bought DBfixit, and it showed over 10 thousand errors. That's right, 10 thousand. The last time I ran it I got 6000 errors. I was going to simply convert the Palm backup files to Outlook, but from what I understand I have to get them in the Palm desktop program before I can do that. I can't import anything now. I would really like to continue my love affair with Palm products, but this thing is getting really ugly. I wish I knew how many hours I've wasted in the past month trying to get this resolved. I know one or more of you guys have had this problem, and I beg for your help. Literally. Thanks, John
Post relates to: Tungsten E2

First off- thanks for trying to help. If memory serves, I started having sync problems over a year ago. I have 2- E2's, one for work, one for personal use. I would sync each Palm to a separate computer. I had my work computer serviced, and they erased the program, so I had to reload the program from Palm. I think I just went with the 6.2 because "newer is better". I immediately started having major problems syncing my work Palm, so I created a separate user name on my home computer to see if I would have better luck with it. I didn't. During this time, I could still sync my personal Palm, but that continued to fade as well. I noticed some Palm files would remain in my computer if I used the "remove program" function, so I went in and manually deleted any other files (except for backup). I've tried reloading the program on my work computer, and basically if I try to sync it with my work Palm, it will get stuck on "Synchronizing Date Book 2 of 12 completed". One other thing I noticed some months back- even when my personal Palm would sync, the phase of the sync on the handheld didn't agree with what was shown on the screen. I bought DBFixit and the first time it ran there was over 10000 errors, and the last time it had over 6000, so apparently things must really be goofed up.
New development: I just tried to sync my work Palm and got a new Fatal Alert error message on the handheld: AddrBDIndex.c,Line:201,Invalid birthday index count=147" whatever that means. When clicking the reset button, nothing responds. The handheld does a soft restart on its own after that.
So, that's about it. I just ran DBFixit on my personal Palm to see what's new in the world of errors. It shows "6702 Errors Found and NONE corrected". If I click okay, then the errors are "fixed" and show 0 errors on the top screen. If I run the program again immediately, it shows 6702 errors, so apparently it's not doing any good. The people at DBFixit seem to be just as puzzled as me. I've had good success with Palm up until a year ago when this mess started. Even if I could get my handheld records to import into the desktop and save them as Outlook files I could see some light, but that apparently isn't going to happen.
This is about all I can recall.

Please! Help me with my SIM card problem!

When I first bought the Blackberry Flip 8220, I was constantly having a problem with my SIM card and the signals. My signal would constantly drop down to none and would go into SOS mode. Not only that, but it would also say either "SIM Card Error,""Invalid SIM Card," or "Insert SIM Card." So, the RIM sent me a new replacement for the cellphone. For the first few days, it worked just fine but, as the time passed by, the phone started to have the similar problem. What's worse is that as the time passed, the more problem started to show up! Now, my side buttons aren't functioning and the rate of my phone experiencing the problem with the SIM card and the signals, similar to the ones mentions above, has risen drastically. For now, the side buttons aren't my priority but what I would like to find out is how come my phone is experiencing such problem with the SIM card and how I can fix it. Please, help me! Due to this problem, I can't even receive the international calls.

Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
I don't believe that RIM issues SIMs...the carriers issue the SIM cards since these activate your phone on their network. RIM doesn't care what network you use...but the carriers do
So, what I'd suggest is that you go see your carrier and find out what's going on with the bad SIM. It is also possible that the device itself has a problem with the SIM card contacts...in which case the advice is the same, your carrier provides your service, so going to see them is the right thing to do.
Good luck and let us know how it goes!

Can anyone help me with iPod/iTunes syncing problems after recent software update?

Hi there,
I wonder if anyone can help me. Last week I updated my iPod to the latest software (8.2). Today I deleted some albums from iTunes and added a few others. I also made some changes to a few of my playlists. I then synched iTunes and my iPod. However the synching has not worked.
When I connect my iPod, it shows up in iTunes pretty instantly. When I click on sync, I can see in iTunes that it is syncing and also on my iPod, but the changes do not appear on my iPod afterwards. Also, after the first syncing attempt, I lost two-thirds of my album cover art. So, I lost covert art, but no other changes were made. The albums I deleted from iTunes are still on my iPod and the ones I added to iTunes are not on my iPod.
I have looked at the music on my iPod while connected to iTunes. I can see the songs/albums I have added are there, but they appear in grey and have a doted circle (to the left) next to them. This shows that they have not synched (I guess).
I have already restarted my McBook Pro and iPod a few times. I synched my iPod with iTunes after every restart, but it has not made any difference. I also deleted the music I added to iTunes and added it again. I synched iTunes and my iPod after this, but it has made no difference.
I would appreciate any suggestions.
Many thanks
Summary:
Updated iPod to iOS 8.2.
Made changes in iTunes i.e. delete and added music
iTunes and iPod show they are synching, but changes to not appear on iPod.
Also lost cover art on iPod after synching.
Products:
iPod Touch, latest generation
iTunes 12.1.0.50
MackBok Pro OS X Mavericks (10.9)

Thank you for your reply. I followed your suggestion and restored my iPod to its factory settings. I then restored it from a backup file. All the problems have been resolved. Quite incredible that I had to go through that process to fix it. I hope Apple will find a solution to the iTunes problem soon.

Can anyone help me with my audio sync problem?

Hi,
I posted about this previously--
I have dvcpro50 footage that I loaded in with a panasonic deck (rented, don't have it anymore).. And in the browser, it shows that certain clips have audio sample rates at funky frequencies (46766.5hz).. As the video plays, the audio drifts more and more and more out of sync... This is indeed happening because FCP is playing these at 46766.5hz instead of 48khz.
Is there anyway to force final cut pro to play these at 48khz, as they should be?
Or does anyone have a solution to this highly stressful problem?
I tried exporting the audio as quicktime and resampling it at a difference of 48-46.766 (49.234khz), and reimporting it in FCP... I was thinking that fcp would continue to play it 1.234hz slower, and thus bringing it back to 48khz, but this did not work.
Thank you.

ok... I solved it.......... Weirdness!!!! i swear i tried this before and it didn't work.
I opened it up in my favorite waveform editor (dsp quattro), and set the sample rate to 48khz saved it out, and now it's fine.. yay.
thank you.

I have a problem in my iphone 4 with wi-fi after update to IOS6 please can help my how can solve this problem?

I have a problem in my iphone 4 with wi-fi after update to IOS6 please can help my how can solve this problem?

Nope
One needs to press the home and sleep / wake keys together for the phone to reset
The other thing I could recommend
Let the battery run out and the phone completely "die"
It may take a day or two with it not being used
Then plug it in to charge and see if there is any change in behavior
If you cannot get this to work - you may need to bring it to an Apple store

If you call GO () you get in an infinite loop. max gets decreased, and it loops while max is smaller then or equal to size * size. Is your looping logic correct ?

Hello everyone, last night I have spent 4 hours for installation of my arch.
I have installed xorg111, catalyst, xfce, compiz-fusion, awn
after I installed everything i was a bit disappointed, because when i start compiz fusion
i have some graphical glitches like when i Right Click on desktop for xfce menubar->applications
i see only border with transparent menu where only my rollover highlights menu components.
I could not fix that, i don't know how to do it.
aside from that glitches GPU is working very good in 3d applications like 0ad, Heroes of Newerth.
please anyone help me, I love ArchLinux very much, i don't want to use Ubunu distros, i must use Proprietary drivers
because of some games

Ok so i looked at the settings for both original movie and new copy and pasted one. I am not sure what to look at, but here are all of the settings.
original -- New
Tracks- 4V 11A -- 3V 8A
Audio- 2 Outputs -- 2 outputs
Frame Size- 720 x 480 -- 720 x 480
Vid Rate- 29.97 FPS -- 29.97 FPS
Compressor-DV/dvcpro-ntsc -- DV/dvcpro-ntsc
Aud rate - 48.0 khz -- 48.0khz
Aud Format- 32-bit floating point -- 32bit floating point
Pixel Aspect-Ntsc-ccir 601 -- Ntsc-ccir 601
Anamorphic-yes -- no
Field dominance- lower even -- lower even
The only difference i see here is the anamorphic setting. When i click it "on" in the new video it just stretches the picture. It does not get rid of the black wide screen lines.
I have been editing on this new timeline for some time now. Is there anyway i can salgave this project and not have to start from the begining again with a duplicate? I have been looking like a mad man to find where the settings are different.
I was able to recreate this problem at the apple store in front of the rep by doing the steps i originally posted. The apple rep didnt seem to understand why that happened.

i will appreciate any help from you, thanks

You have to add another fruit item at index position bagSize (and increment it afterwards). Deleting an element is a bit more trouble when you want to use an array. Also your method emptyBag() is redundant because it's functionally equivalent to the isEmpty() method. An array is quite a clumsy data structure for a bag of things. A List would've been better.

Have you tried contacting your ISP to see if they can talk you through a trace from your computer to phobos.apple.com?
Some people with AOL were having problems and it turned out that their tracelog revealed connectivity issues.
You say that a lot of people are having problems but I'm not having any problems up here in Canada connecting and I had no problem yesterday or on friday. I have had problems in the past but I assume that it was network issues on the ISP side since I had problems connecting to some other sites as well.

Can someone help me with a user account problem?

Hi everyone, I need help.
Last night while working on my computer, I decided I wanted to change the name beside my little "house" icon -- in the left part of the finder window.
Well, I changed it from allisonnagorski to allison and everything seemed to work fine. Then, I noticed my iDisk disappeared, so I decided to restart the computer to get it back because I was preparing to back up some info from my hard drive to iDisk.
Anyway, when the computer restarted, the desktop was different and none of my programs (iCal, Address Book, Mail, iTunes, Quicken, etc.) were as they usually are -- they were all "brand new," if you will.
So, my immediate thought was that I logged in as a new user. Also, I'm the only user/administrator, but thought maybe by changing my name, I created a new user. So, I logged out and tried to log in as the other user, but there was no other user.
I looked at Apple's help and even went into the account preferences in system preferences, but couldn't fix the problem. The long name was allison, but the short name was still allisonnagorski. I am still listed as administrator, too.
The funny thing is that all my data is not lost. I can see it in the users folder in my hard drive, but I don't know how to get it back into my applications.
Could someone PLEASE help me with this? I'm crippled because I can't access my everday programs.
THANKS IN ADVANCE!

E66 with Video/audio sync problem

Is there someone where the E66 does NOT have the audio/video sync problem?
Test:
Record your finger tapping on the table, then check if Video and Audio are in sync

Furthermore on the site, still frimware from nov last year is advertised as latest!
I will go to a service point, or return the phone to the store.

Can you please help with yet "another" Sync problem?
