Problem syncing via wifi palm tx with windows xp pro

I have had my palm tx for a couple of years and had no trouble syncing to my xp pro machine until today. I just got a new wifi dsl-router/modem from embarq (it is a ZyXEL P-660H-D1). I had no problems with my former wifi dsl-router/modem (D-Link DSL-G604T). They are both 802.11b/g. I have enabled b and g on the new router.
The Palm TX does connect to the new router using wpa and I can surf to see web pages.  However, it does not "see" my desktop on the network. I've made no changes to my desktop network configurations. (The desktop is visible on the network when I use my lapto). I have checked all the settings in my palm tx and my hotsync manager on the pc. I have tried connecting by putting the desktop's IP address in the Palm, but nothing works.  Can anyone think of any setting in the router I might change to resolve this?
FYI I can sync using the cable, but I really prefer using wifi for syncing.
Thanks for any help you can give. (I'm new to this community, sorry if this has been answered elsewhere, but I searched and couldn't find an answer.)

Hello darthemma, welcome to the Palm Support Community!
It sounds like you have the settings correct.  I can only suggest you make "Static IP's" for both the computer and TX in your router.  That will assign the same IP address to each device permanently.
Here's my standard "Wifi Hotsync" help file.  Hope it helps!
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.

  • Palm Desktop with Windows XP PRO SP3

    Why the Palm Desktop doesn´t work since I have installed  Service Pack 3 - Portuguese - on my Windows XP PRO ?
    Post relates to: Zire 72

    Try the following to see if you can get Palm desktop to open.
    Locate your username folder on the PC. Look in c-programs-palm-username folder (this is the name you assigned in Palm desktop for the username).
    Click on the following link to the kb.palm.com webpage for the article regarding your username folder.
    http://www.palm.com/cgi-bin/cso_kbURL.cgi?ID=26674
    Rename the data folders one at a time and see if Palm desktop will open. Locate the address folder and rename it to address.old. Try to open Palm desktop and see if you get the same problem. If you do, rename the datebook folder to datebook.old and try to open Palm desktop. Rename each folder with the same method and try to open PD. If it opens after renaming a folder then the folder you renamed is the culprit. Once you get palm desktop open, try a sync with the conduits set to Handheld overwrites desktop.
    Let me know if it works. If it doesn't, then you will need to do a "clean" uninstall of Palm desktop.

  • Problem on HP Pavilion dv7-6c90el with Windows 8 Pro x64 on Video Card

    good evening,
    I just finished installing Windows 8 x64 from Win7 Pro, I was able to find all drivers for my notebook, but I have problems with the video card settings.
    My laptop is a HP Pavilion dv7-6c90el with two video cards, one run by the processor because it seems to me to be a part, and the other normally installed on the PC.
    The cards are read by Windows as:
    device 1: Intel HD Graphics 3000
    device 2: AMD Radeon HD 6700m Series (Microsoft Corporation - WDDM v1.20)
    the problem resides in the fact that the device should be only one support per second, or deactivated, as it will not. The video card AMD should be set to 1, and the intel 2. Only if I go to the "Device Manager" to disable the intel card, Windows works as if it were not present any video card, also installed driver is not correct because the card is an AMD Radeon HD7690M XT, the problem is that even if I uninstall this driver then always comes back. I also tried to download AMD Catalyst in the latest version, but can not find the card. It 's like the Windows is imposed only use the device 1, which, however, I can not disable the BIOS, because there is no voice. I note that under Windows 7 had no problem.
    I ask you to help me because I need the performance of the video card for my work.

  • Palm TX won't hot sync via wifi, but will surf the internet via wifi

    My Palm TX will hotsync with Windows XP via USB only. I cannot get a wifi hotsync. I can get on my wireless home network and surf the net, but I cannot hotsync to my computer through my wireless home network.
    I've tried everything I can think of. I cannot find my computer on my TX during a Hotsync search with the Firewall on, or off. I've hard reset my TX, I've hard reset and wiped my TX. I've entered my Computer name into the TX manually and I've entered the IP address of my computer. Nothing..... It does a USB sync just fine. I've checked to make sure TCP/IP connection was turned on in the Palm Desktop software . . . it just won't sync via wifi.
    Using:
    Windows XP home
    Palm Desktop 6.2
    Palm TX: with original OS and original Hotsync
    ...help?

    Ditto that, though until about a week ago I could sync my TX via Wi-Fi without problems. Now it doesn't get past the initial screen, then the error that I should check my connections, etc. I want this back so I'm gonna work on it.

  • Sync via wifi devices not listed in iTunes

    I have 3 iOS 5 devices.
    I attach each of them via the USB cable to my Windows PC and they are shown.
    I select "Sync via WiFi" and remove the USB cable and the devices are no longer
    shown in iTunes. I believe they are suppose remain in the device list until
    they are detected via WiFi they are not.
    I restarted iTunes, the iOS devices (1 iPhone 4S and 2 iPad 1 devices).
    Attaching a power cable to the device does not make them appear.
    They are all attached to the same WiFi network as is the PC.
    Any insight appreciated.

    Shut down your router, iDevice and your computer.
    Restart ithem in following sequence:
    1.Router
    2.Computer, open iTunes
    3.iDevices
    Wait for a few minutes for iTunes to detect the devices.

  • Sync via Wifi ?

    Well, you can with AppleTV : but can you with the iPod touch ? I use my iPod in my car mostly. It would be great to auto-sync via Wifi when you arrive at home, without needing to unplug 'the beast' from it's holder !

    No WiFi sync at the moment.

  • Sync via wifi would be nice?

    wouldn't it be nice to be able to sync via wifi instead of having to dock all the time .

    I agree, that would be great to sync iTunes content without docking. Technically, it is already available via Cydia after you JB your device. I'm not recommending you JB just for this feature, as it is buggy. If you want to, go for it.
    But I agree with the first reply and you should suggest this to Apple.
    Cheers.

  • Adobe Reader v8.1.2 Compatible with Windows XP Pro SP3

    I need to know if Adobe Reader v8.1.2 is compatible with Windows XP Pro SP3.
    Thank you.

    I've been using Reader without any problems until yesterday when administrator installed Windows XP SP3. When I do a <Ctrl-P> to print, it takes about 30 to 90 seconds for the print requester to pop up. The program is locked up and not responding during the delay, although it does NOT say "Not Responding" in the title bar.<br /><br />While the delay is going, the SysInternals Process Explorer shows but fleeting milliseconds of Kernel or User time being used. Setting the priority from 8 to 13 made no improvement at all.<br /><br />I frequently print from the Reader and the delay drives me nuts! This hang-up needs to be corrected ASAP.<br /><br />I am sure it is a Reader incompatibility because it never happened before the SP3 update, the program is hung and doing nothing and everything works perfectly before and after the <Ctrl-P> is entered.<br /><br />Word or Excel do not experience similar problems. I just tried Notepad, and it sometimes hangs the same way but not nearly as long - maybe 10 seconds at the most and only the first time. After the first delay it pops right up. Adobe Reader hangs a long time every time.<br /><br />Any idea if Adobe is going to fix it or even knows the problem exists? Do they moderate or monitor complaints like this here or elsewhere?<br /><br />I don't want to think they know about it and are fixing it if they aren't.

  • Is the JDK (1.2.2) compatible with Windows 2000 Pro?

    Hi Friends!,
    It seems that the JDK - Version: 1.2.2 - is not
    compatible with Windows 2000 Pro. I know
    how to configure the kit in this operating system
    even if I'am not able to understand the reason for which
    I receive the error in the Command Prompt window - the JAVAC
    utility says:
    "Can't read: BigDebt.java - 1 error".
    I have added the following command line from
    the System Control Panel->System->Environment->System Variables:
    C:\jdk1.2.2\bin ( where I have installed the kit ).
    I also have added the CLASSPATH command line there:
    set CLASSPATH=.;C:\jdk1.2.2\lib\tools.jar but the problem persists
    and I'am unable to create the BigDebt.class file.
    To avoid another nervous wreck please send me the instructions
    to configure correctly the JDK (1.2.2) for Windows 2000 Pro.
    Thanks.
    Julian Jerman - from Italy.

    when you runs the java compiler like this
    javac BigDebt.java
    You need to be in the directory of your BigDebt.java file located.
    BTW, it is kind of weird that your java file is saved to System32 directory, there is no benefit doing that.

  • Is the Creative ZEN compatible with Windows XP Pro x64 editi

    Hello, I recently bought a Zune and then found out it wasn't compatible with my OS, XP Pro x64. I installed the software on my laptop, but it was just too troublesome to set everything up and exchange music, videos, etc. between the two machines. So I've decided to return the Zune and get a Zen instead. I'd really like to buy the ZEN 8GB, but it does not state whether or not the x64 edition is supported. The ZEN V Plus states that the software does support the OS, so if I have to get that one, I don't mind. Thanks.

    CRe: Is the Creative ZEN compatible with Windows XP Pro x64 edition?H I recently bought a Zen 8GB mp3 player. I have an xp x64 pro OS. As soon as I tried to instal the included software from the CD, a dialogue box appeared stating, "The windows operating system running on this computer is not supported by this product." I have done everything the technical assistance group has suggested with the samed result including a clean install. I did load it on my 32 bit laptop. It works fine. ONe of the problems I have found is that the correspondance goes to a different person each time and they are not reading the dialogue. I have found a way to make it work (well somewhat) with my 64 bitg machine. Oddly enough thed software for my zen V load on fine but the software is incampatable with the Zen 8GB unit. I think that there are softwarfe problems and CT is not really dealing with them.

  • Lenovo Yoga with Windows 8 Pro, Office 2013 and Visual Studio

    For you developer types, I just wanted to post a message and let you know my experience with Lenovo Ideapad Yoga 13 as a development machine. I bought Lenovo Ideapad Yoga 13 from Bestbuy for $999.99. As expected, it came with a crap ton of bloatware installed by Lenovo.
    Here is a summary of what I did to it (I take no responsilibity for accuracy of below information. You are on your own if you decide to follow them. I am just putting this down from my memory so that I can look it up in the future if I ever need to do this again).
    INITIAL CLEANUP
    Installed Lenovo hotfix for partition cleanup/merging: http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/downloads/detail.page?DocID=DS033035
    Installed Lenovo Touchpad driver fix.
    CAUTION: I take no responsibility for below steps. I am writing them from memory and if you decide to follow them and end up making your machine unusable, you are on your own as Lenovo might not honor your warranty.
    BACK UP ENTIRE DISK (requires an empty USB flash drive for booting and another external USB drive for backup)
    Copied Drivers from D_Backup folder to the external USB hard drive (plugged into USB 3.0 port).
    Installed Paragon Backup & Recovery 2012 Free: http://www.paragon-software.com/home/br-free/
    Created Paragon Backup & Recovery boot USB flash drive with default Linux recovery environment option (flash drive plugged into USB 2.0 port).
    Shutdown Lenovo Yoga.
    Plugged in the Paragon Backup & Recovery boot USB flash drive (USB 2.0 port). 
    Pressed the one key recovery button (next to power button). Went to BIOS.
    In the BIOS, enabled Legacay mode and made Legacy high priority and saved the changes.
    The machine booted into Paragon Backup & Recovery mode. From there, made a backup of entire disk to the external USB hard drive.
    Shut down the machine, pressed the one key recovery button (next to power button). Went to BIOS. Turned off Legacy mode and switched back to UEFI boot mode and saved the changes and restarted the machine.
    Logged into the machine and verified that everything was good and checked the external USB drive to verify that the backup image was present.
    MAKE WINDOWS 8 PRO BOOT USB FLASH DRIVE (requires a second empty USB flash drive and a second computer with Windows 7. This USB Flash Drive has to be between 4GB to 32GB as Windows won't format 64GB flash drives to FAT32 mode)
    (Note: I installed Windows 8 Pro in UEFI mode. See http://pcsupport.about.com/od/windows-8/a/install-windows-8-usb.htm)
    You need a licensed ISO image of Windows 8 Professional Full version (not the upgrade version) from your MSDN or Technet subscription or create an ISO from the Windows 8 Pro full version DVD.
    Download Windows 7 USB/DVD Download Tool on the computer with windows 7.
    Plug in the second empty USB flash drive (has to be at least 4GB but less than 32GB) into the computer with Windows 7.
    Using Windows 7 USB/DVD Download Tool and the ISO file, create the Windows 8 Pro bootable USB Flash drive.
    Create a new folder on your computer disk, for example, C:\WIN8USB.
    Copy all the files from your USB flash drive to the newly created folder (created in the previous step).
    Right click on the USB drive icon in Computer window and select “Format…” from the context menu. Make sure you select “FAT32 (Default)” in “File system” drop down menu. Click “Start” and wait till the drive gets formatted. This step is needed because NTFS is not readable by BIOS in UEFI boot mode. During formatting, MBR is preserved so the thumbdrive is still bootable.
    Copy all the files from the folder you created earlier (C:\WIN8USB, for example) to the formatted drive. Your Windows 8 installation USB drive is ready to install in UEFI mode.
    WIPE THE DISK PARTITIONS
    Shut down the machine, pressed the one key recovery button (next to power button). Went to BIOS, enabled Legacay mode and made Legacy high priority and saved the changes.
    Booted into Paragon Backup & Recovery boot USB flash drive again. This time, I deleted all partitions on the primary disk (Disk 0). CAUTION: This WILL wipe your hard disk and will make your machine unusable!!! 
    Shut down the machine, pressed the one key recovery button (next to power button). Went to BIOS. Turned off Legacy mode and switched back to UEFI boot mode and saved the changes and shut down the machine.
    At this point, the disk is wiped clean. All factory installed software and recovery partitions are gone!!!
    INSTALL WINDOWS 8 PRO
    Plug in the USB Flash Drive with Windows 8 Pro install files.
    Windows 8 Installer would show the unallocated disk space. I can't remember the exact details but either I had to click on Delete or New to delete and then create a new GPT partition. The entire partition was about 119GB.
    From that point, follow the Windows 8 Pro installation steps.
    After booting up into Windows 8 Pro, plug the external USB drive that had the drivers folder backed up from D_backups.
    Install all the drivers from this folder (I was able to install everything except for one Intel fast boot one because of missing partition but my Yoga still boots up just as fast).
    Go to device manager to check and everything should be good now.
    Run Windows Update.
    You should now have about 101GB free on C: drive!!
    INSTALL VISUAL STUDIO, SQL SERVER and OFFICE 2013 ON LENOVO YOGA 13
    I installed the following in that order:
    Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 Developer edition (I installed all components, everything!). Then I installed latest service pack.
    Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 (I installed all components, everything!). Then I installed latest service pack.
    Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Developer edition(I installed all components, everything!). Then I installed latest service pack.
    Microsoft Visual Studio 2012(I installed all components, everything!)
    I ran Windows update and also installed Nov 2012 updates of SQL Server Data tools.
    I then installed Office 2013 Pro Plus.
    MAKE LENOVO YOGA 13 MORE SECURE
    Go to Control Panel and enable Windows Defender (it is included by default in Windows 8 and is anti-virus and anti-malware solution)
    Enable full hard-disk encryption using BitLocker feature of Windows 8 Pro. Since Lenovo Ideapad Yoga 13 doesn't have hardware TPM, you have to enable password based option. For this, follow the steps here: http://rics.partners.org/show_article.php?id=274. 
    Basically, you go to GPEDIT.MSC and Open Computer Configuration => Administrative Templates => Windows Components => BitLocker Drive Encryption => Operating System Drives. From the right pane double-click "Require additional authentication at startup. Select Enabled radio button and check the box for "Allow BitLocker without a compatible TPM...". Click OK and close the policy editor. Then Right-click your C drive in the Computer folder, click Turn on BitLocker. Then select Enter a password instead of USB option. Then provide a strong password (make sure to write it down and put it in a SAFE place, if you lose the password, no one can boot into your hard disk). Then select Save to a file and save it to the External Drive. Select "Encrypt entire drive...", click Next. When this is done, you will get a pop-up on the lower-right a prompt to restart the computer. Restart your PC. Enter the encryption password created earlier. If you are successful in getting into Windows, you're all set.
    I also hooked up to Skydrive and used BoxCryptor to encrypt my files in cloud.
    The available free disk space should now be about 54GB.
    I verified that Lenovo Yoga 13 works like a champ with no slowdown with Visual Studio 2010, Visual Studio 2012 and SQL Server Management Studio open simultaneously and Bitlocker enabled!
    The keyboard right SHIFT key is small but other than that, it can work as a great portable development machine and Microsoft Reader is great for reading PDF eBooks.
    So if you are a Developer on Microsoft platform, go right ahead. Lenovo IdeaPad Yoga 13 is great for running Visual Studio 2010 and Visual Studio 2012 (1600x900 resolution is totally usable) while on the move. Since I have only had this machine for a few days, I can't tell much about the long term reliability.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Thank you for posting this. I am in this exact situation. I purchased a yoga 13, and installed Visual Studio Express 2012 for Windows Phone. As it turns out, the Windows Phone Emulator ONLY works in a Windows 8 Pro environment. Since the Yoga doesn't have a disc drive, I shared my W7 computer's cd drive, then put in Windows 8 Pro, so that it could install onto the Yoga. Well, after the installation was done, I tried running my program again and ran into the same issue. It prompted me that my environment must be Windows 8 Pro! I thought that Windows 8 Pro already installed but, what confuses me is that I see no indication that Windows 8 Pro installed. When I go to the System Window, it reads: "Windows 8". Should it read Windows 8 Pro?
    Ultimately, I'd like to know, are you able to execute the Windows Phone Emulator? I'm not sure as to whether the Yoga has the hardware capability (needs to be SLAT enabled or something like that?), I HOPE it is able to, and judging by your post, it seems like it but I'd love to know your perspective on my approach.
    Please let me know if this makes sense, as I'm new to this kind of thing but really want to start development for Windows Phone.
