SOLVED (?): my problem with HotSync (USB, Zire 72 and Win XP)

As noted in many other messages, it is not uncommon for the HotSync to fail with USB connection when the "Local USB" option disappears from the manager menu.
I noticed this earlier today and like many others had information that I needed to transfer via USB to my computer.
After a number of false tries, I saw a message about using Device Manager to check the status of the handheld. In my case, the device had a yellow blob with a "?" on it and when I right-clicked, it said the driver was not available.
Following another post, I located the drivers and used the Hardware Wizard to update the driver.
This was not straightforward to me and I am posting to mention what worked for me.
The problem is telling the Wizard what file to use or ALTERNATIVELY where to find it OR what type of driver file to look for.
In my case, I told it to look in the palm directory (this is wrong, it is in the USB_Drivers subdirectory and I didn't realize it, or the Wizard didn't let me go to the subdirectory level). The Wizard did not allow me to click OK (greyed out) and so I tried the alternative of looking by TYPE. Here it displayed palm handheld as one type and I selected this, but again the OK was greyed out.
I took another look at the choices and selected ports and com (probably kind of an obvious choice for a USB connection <g>) and this one came up with a specific .sys file and I was now able to click OK.
The Wizard went through an install and afterward, I tried hotsyncing and it worked without a problem.
I believe the problem is caused at least in part because the Palm Install program doesn't install the driver in the subdirectory (in Win32?) where Win XP expects it.
Since the file is now in the right place, hopefully it is a real (permanent) solution.
Thanks for the messages others posted that helped me (hopefully) fix this.

Post relates to: Zire 72

Do you have the latest system driver updates.Think the latest update (version 2.78,updated through Live Update or the verion at nVidia website) does address that issue. I updated,however, I do not have any 2.0 devices so I am not sure that my 2.0 is working.They work fine for me at 1.1.
There is also a USB 2.0 patch version 5.1.2600.1106 available on Live Update as well. I have already updated that as well

Java 6 you can't as Apple maintains it, and Java 7 you could if you uninstall it and Oracle provides the earlier version which they likely won't his last update fixed 37 remote exploits.
Java broken some software here and there, all you'll have to do is wait for a update from the other parties.

Easier and better ways to solve current problems with Acrobat?

Is there no better and easier way to solve the problems (installation, re-installing and crashing) with Acrobat? I really think that the ball is in Acrobat's corner right now, because I should not (for example) need to deactivate and re-activate my subscription in order to get AcrobatPro XI to work on my computer, let alone deinstalling an older version that (for now) does work, risking that in the end neither of them work. I need the (great) AdobeCloud applications to do my work as a freelancer, and I really cannot afford this kind of trouble with my applications, nore loose time repairing them. These are difficult times as it is.
Regards,
Marc

Sorry, I can't. When I installed it there was no message that said I had to deinstall the old version first, and with other Adobe CC applications there had been no trouble at all, so I installed it with The previous version still on my computer.
After installing, neither of them would start up properly, so I deinstalled version XI, after which the old version worked again, but my Adobe Application Manager does not let me download the XI version a second time, so I cannot try again.
Regards,
Marc

The description of the issue you originally presented isn't something that I've seen happen to Acrobat when installed as a part of Creative Cloud.
Could you provide a specific description of the behavior that occurs when you launch Acrobat XI now?
Thanks,
David

Problems with Internetstick CS-10 and "Data Servic...

Hi,
I have problems with my USB-Stick CS-10 with MultiSim-Card. MultiSim supports simultanious opereation, when Stick is connected to the PC/Notbook an outgoing call from my mobile is possible an incoming is rejected after the first dialtone. I found in the www some hints to change the mode with at-commands in hyperterminal, I can connect the stick with hyperterminal and for example the command to check the manufactor "ati" is working and sending an "at" is answered by "OK". But the commands like "enter at_odo?" to check the status and the others to change the status are not working for the cs-10. Have you some hints to solve the problem.
Thanks in advance
yours Hans

HI,
we have seen that there might be some issue with MultiSim and working on that issue.
In meantime you might check with
AT%ICSCALL=1,0 command. IN most cases this worked

Problems with my KM4M-L and my MP3 Player

I recently reformatted my hard drive and re-installed all OS and programs in hopes of solving a problem with my sound board.
After the re-install I began noticing that my mp3 player would crash the explorer whenever I connected it and tried to open windows explorer to move files into it.
The player is a Zen Touch and uses USB 2.0. Does anyone have any ideas what I could do to fix this problem? It was working fine before re-installing everything so I know the hardware is not the problem.
Dj

Umm... no psu problems. I have an Antec truepower 430, and I am (fortunately) not having any sound problems. The problem seems to come from plugging the player into the usb and then trying to get windows to recognize what's on the computer (ide-floppy and usb)
I checked creative labs and as of yet, have not received a decent reply, other than "check that your drivers are up to date".

Problem with detecting USB devices.. something abt ehci-hcd??

Hi All,
I have a DELL E6410 laptop. I have a problem with connecting USB devices.
Whenever a power event (such as connecting/disconnecting of AC adaptor) happens, my laptop stops detecting any USB devices and any changes that happen on the USB ports. That is, say an external mouse is connected to the laptop, the mouse stops functioning, and if I connect a mouse/USB_stick or any such thing to the computer, the device is not detected.
dmesg output show that any connecting/disconnecting events are not detected by the computer. lsusb output too shows the same thing.
To solve the problem, I need to rmmod the module ehci-hcd and modprobe it back. That is, I have to run the commands rmmod ehci-hcd followed by modprobe ehci-hcd. Then, this problem goes away until the next power event happens.
This event does not happen all the time, but it happens very regularly.
Here are the kernel and laptop specs..
uname -a
Linux myhost 3.0-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Tue Aug 30 08:53:25 CEST 2011 x86_64 Intel(R) Core(TM) i5 CPU M 520 @ 2.40GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux
Kindly help me on this issue.
Thanks

This is the output of kernel.log when I unplug my AC adaptor with the external USB mouse connected.

Problem with java swing button and loop

Problem with java swing button and loop
I�m using VAJ 4.0. and I�m doing normal GUI application. I have next problem.
I have in the same class two jswing buttons named start (ivjGStart) and stop (ivjGStop) and private static int field named Status where initial value is 0. This buttons should work something like this:
When I click on start button it must do next:
Start button must set disenabled and Stop button must set enabled and selected. Field status is set to 1, because this is a condition in next procedure in some loop. And then procedure named IzvajajNeprekinjeno() is invoked.
And when I click on stop button it must do next:
Start button must set enabled and selected and Stop button must set disenabled.
Field status is set to 0.
This works everything fine without loop �do .. while� inside the procedure IzvajajNeprekinjeno(). But when used this loop the start button all the time stay (like) pressed. And this means that a can�t stop my loop.
There is java code, so you can get better picture:
/** start button */
public void gStart_ActionEvents() {
try {
ivjGStart.setEnabled(false);
ivjGStop.setEnabled(true);
ivjGStop.setSelected(true);
getJTextPane1().setText("Program is running ...");
Status = 1;
} catch (Exception e) {}
/** stop button */
public void gStop_ActionEvents() {
try {
ivjGStart.setEnabled(true);
ivjGStart.setSelected(true);
ivjGStop.setEnabled(false);
getJTextPane1().setText("Program is NOT running ...");
Status = 0;
} catch (Exception e) {
/** procedure IzvajajNeprekinjeno() */
public void IzvajajNeprekinjeno() { //RunLoop
try {
int zamik = 2000; //delay
do {
Thread.sleep(zamik);
PreberiDat(); //procedure
} while (Status == 1);
} catch (Exception e) {
So, I'm asking what I have to do, that start button will not all the time stay pressed? Or some other aspect of solving this problem.
Any help will be appreciated.
Best regards,
Tomi

This is a multi thread problem. When you start the gui, it is running in one thread. Lets call that GUI_Thread so we know what we are talking about.
Since java is task-based this will happen if you do like this:
1. Button "Start" is pressed. Thread running: GUI_Thread
2. Event gStart_ActionEvents() called. Thread running: GUI_Thread
3. Method IzvajajNeprekinjeno() called. Thread running: GUI_Thread
4. Sleep in method IzvajajNeprekinjeno() on thread GUI_Thread
5. Call PreberiDat(). Thread running: GUI_Thread
6. Check status. If == 1, go tho 4. Thread running: GUI_Thread.
Since the method IzvajajNeprekinjeno() (what does that mean?) and the GUI is running in the same thread and the event that the Start button has thrown isn't done yet, the program will go on in the IzvajajNeprekinjeno() method forever and never let you press the Stop-button.
What you have to do is do put either the GUI in a thread of its own or start a new thread that will do the task of the IzvajajNeprekinjeno() method.

Problems with BBC iPlayer Desktop and Adobe Air for Mac

I would be grateful for anyone who can help me with a problem I have on my Laptop running Mac OS X Lion 10.7.3.I am having difficulty running BBC iPlayer Desktop and I suspect it is caused by Adobe Air.
Recently I was prompted to update Adobe Air to the latest version (as of February 2012) and after I successfully updated the program, this began to cause problems when I used BBC iPlayer desktop.
The first problem I noticed was that I was unable to play any downloaded programmes in full screen - only the sound played, not the video.
Secondly, a few weeks after this problem began, all my TV programmes mysteriously disappeared.
My final problem is that everytime I launch BBC iPlayer it is unable to download new programmes - when I am connected to the internet, the application still says it is "offline".
I have tried to resolve the problem by restarting my computer, uninstalling and reinstalling BBC iPlayer, disabling and re-enabling my firewall, connecting to the internet in different locations but this has not resolved the problem.
I tried to uninstall Adobe Air, but the installation package tells me it is 'corrupt'. So I tried to download and reinstall the application from the adobe website, but the computer already recognises that the app is installed. i.e. - I can't uninstall or reinstall Adobe Air.
I contacted BBC iPlayer support and they were unable to help - directing me to your website. I have read several other discussion topics posted on this website but not found the solution I am looking for.
Please can some help me to solve this problem, by helping me uninstall and reinstall Adobe Air for Mac?
I am not very technical minded - for example - I don't know what log files are or how to find them - so please explain it as simply as possible.
Thank you in advance for your help!
Ryan

Just had the same thing happen AGAIN. Suddenly - a blank iPlayer Desktop which failed to download new programmes. All previous programmes were still in the repository folder. This time the sequence I outlined previously didn't work.
What eventually got things working this time was to reinstall Adobe Air as part of the BBC iPlayer Desktop installation process - and not separately.
So:
a) Move iPlayer to trash.
b) Find and delete the following folder: Users/Yourname/Library/Preferences/BBCiPlayerDesktop.61DB7A798358575D6A969CCD73DDBBD 723A6DA9D.1
c) Find and delete the following folder:
Users/Yourname/Library/Application Support/Adobe/AIR/ELS/BBCiPlayerDesktop.61DB7A798358575D6A969CCD73DDB BD723A6DA9D.1
d) Find and delete the following folder:
Users/Yourname/Movies/BBC iPlayer/repository/cache
e) Find and run: Applications/Utilities/Adobe AIR Uninstaller
f) Empty the Trash. I found that bits and pieces of BBC iPlayer were still running despite having been quit and dumped in the trash - and so it wouldn't allow me to complete this part. Restarted the computer, then empty the trash.
g) Find the folder: Users/Yourname/Movies/BBC iPlayer/repository and rename it repository2
h) Reinstall iPlayer. It will tell you that you have no programmes to view. Quit the programme.
i) Find and delete the folder: Users/Yourname/Movies/BBC iPlayer/repository
j) Find the folder: Users/Yourname/Movies/BBC iPlayer/repository2 and rename it to repository.
k) Relaunch iPlayer
It would be terribly nice if the BBC or Adobe stopped buggering about with this . . .

Hey floridiansue,
Do you have an installed email program such as Microsoft Outlook? If your email is through an online login, such as Gmail, etc, then one will have to create an email association with a program such as Microsoft Outlook on the PC for this Scan to Email system to function.

I'm having problems with CS2 (mainly illustrator and photoshop

I'm having problems with CS2 (mainly illustrator and photoshop ) randomly shutting down while trying to save a file. Reformatted my laptop for fear of a virus and reloaded... I have gotten nowhere.
Please Help!

CS3 still had issues with the preferences becoming corrupt, so a possible workaround would be to reset the preferences.
The file is called AIPrefs and is located under 'Documents and Settings/User/Application Data/Adobe/Adobe Illustrator CS3 Settings'. It is a hidden file. Delete it with Illustrator closed and when you launch the program again the file will be rebuilt.
May be it is also sounds like you need more memory for your computer. If you can navigate to your computer's memory controls, and allow your operating system to use a portion of your hard disk drive (HDD) as RAM (maybe 2Gb or so) it may solve your issue.
How is about: http://www.filerepairforum.com/forum/adobe/adobe-aa/illustrator/383-%E2%80%8Bcorrupted-fon ts-in-illustrator-file-urgent-help-need – resource has non-commercial specialty

Apple TV keeps telling me there is a problem with my apple ID and password when I try to connect to home sharing. I have checked and rechecked and re-entered several times with same message.

I just bought an Apple TV and am trying to set it up. I am connected to wireless, is having difficulties setting time and date. When I try to connect to iTunes and sharing. It keeps telling me that there is a problem with my apple ID and password. I have quadruple checked and re-entered and it won't recognise it. What do I do? Dan.

Sounds like it is more an issue of connecting to the internet. Not just the WiFi Some people have reported that performing a power cycle on their Internet router solved this.

Hi bluebanana 66,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
There are a few reasons why you might receive this message after installing iTunes. You may need to verify that iTunes has been completely removed before trying to install again. See this article for the steps to completely remove and reinstall iTunes:
