Treo 650 Software, version 4.2

Moved to the Synchronization > Windows HotSync forum

Hello hoosierraven and welcome to the Palm forums.
If you no longer have the Treo 650, but do have access to the Windows XP PC that has your old data on it, then you are correct, exporting the data from the old PC to the new Windows 7 PC is your best bet.
I would export the data for each of the personal information mananger tools in Palm Desktop 4.2 on the Windows XP PC (contacts, tasks, memos, and calendar) each to their own separate files. Copy the exported files to a USB flash drive. Then on the Windows 7 PC, install Palm Desktop 4.2 and then import the data.
Palm Desktop 4.2 is, relatively speaking, really old software in computer terms. The Windows Vista/Windows 7 compatible version of Palm Desktop is version 6.2.2. Since you no longer have a working Palm phone, I won't bother with Palm Desktop 6.2.2 unless you are unable to install the older version of Palm Desktop on Windows 7.
Once you have Palm Desktop installed on your Windows 7 PC, launch Palm desktop and create a new HotSync ID. Lastly, go a head and import the data from the Window XP PC that you saved on your USB flash drive.
Hope that helps,
Alan G

I don't know about the Treo 650 software, but a similar answer DTfromBH gives has been erroneously repeated for Treo 680 CD software. First time owners have been told they can't get replacements. The Bonus Software was actually freely available for download on the Palm site, contrary to what many were told when contacting customer support. Since the demise of MyPalm Beta, I don't know the location of the Bonus Software download page, but it was there & the apps could be downloaded individually.
A license to single use means one individual may use the software for himself on one device only; it doesn't mean the software can't be replaced. That license would usually tranfer to the new owner. One is likely to be prohibited from transferring the software to another owner of another device, but not a subsequent owner of the same device. The hitch is that the device must be registered with Palm in order to be eligible to purchase a replacement CD. However, as I said the Bonus Software had been available for download on MyPalm Beta, as was the Palm Desktop.

Problem with treo 650 Palm OS Garnet 5.4.8 and Garnet development suit

Hi All,
I like to develop application for Treo 650 having version Palm OS Garnet 5.4.8. But my installed Garnet OS Development Suit has default inbuilt sdk.
I have downloaded and installed latest sdk 5.6 for Garnet development from www.accessdevnet.com but how to integrate it with the suit ???
The built-in sdk is sdk-5r4 which uses TelephonyMgr.h for telephony but my treo 650 withdrawn supporting TelephonyMgr and uses other new library as I found in the PalmDeveloperGuide_PalmOs.pdf ....
"Treo smartphones have their own Phone library. The telephony header files
TelephonyMgr.h, TelephonyMgrTypes.h, and TelephonyMgrUI.h are not
supported in Treo smartphones."
And the inbuit sdk has TelephonyMgr instead of new telephony library. I have downloded and installed Palm SDK 5.6 found in accessdevenet.com but do not know how to integrate with Garnet development suit.
I can not start developing without the matching sdk.
Please anybody help.....

Software Installation CD for Treo 650

I received a Treo 650 as a gift, but there is no CD in the box. I went on-line and the owner's manual references a software installation CD that is needed to synch things up, etc. Is the CD available through my wireless phone service provder (Verizon)? Can I download the information directly to my PC some other way? The phone looks like it will be terrific... when I can get it fully functional THANK YOU!!!

I have a ZEN Vision M and had no problem installing the Creative software on my windows Vista system. Upon placing the ZEN cd in my player I was prompted as to what action to take with the CD, I selected RUN.EVE. Then I was asked to verify that I wanted to allow the install application to run. t that point all I had to do was answer the Creative questions to install the software. I have Windows Vista Home Premium and the Creative Media Source version is 3.30.35.

Error when installing CD Software for Treo 650

For some reason or another, it does not look like their are any scratches on my installation CD that I got with my Treo 650, but when I go to do the install, it almost completes the install and then it gives me an error message that says: Error 1316.A network error occurred while attempting to read from the file
C:\WINDOWS\Installer\palmOne.msi
I have no idea of why I can not install this CD to my computer, any help?
I no that this CD comes with the software so that I can sync my Treo with my Outlook, and that is all I am trying to do at this time.

How to import old Palm Desktop Software (sync with Treo 650) to New Computer ?

Running '07 version of Palm Desktop - Calendar/Contacts etc. on old computer. Copied data & files into folder and placed on desktop of new computer. Installed new version - Palm Desktop by Access onto new computer (Windows 7) & tried to import data from folder - no go. Still have old computer and could save to disk - but not sure how to go about procedure. Or, is there an older version of Palm Desktop available to download on new computer that will allow importing of data from folder? Help !! Thanks.

The best way is to install the Palm desktop version you had with your device and hotsync. If your device is still working install the Palm desktop to your new computer and run a hotsync with the conduits set to handheld overwrites desktop. If your new computer is a 64 bit version of windows 7 read the post 64bit drivers are here. This post has the liink to the driver and install directions. Aceeca 64bit driver

Is it really possible to upgrade from a Treo 650 to a Treo 750?

I am not a very happy customer at the moment, but any help would be greatly appreciated. I upgraded from my old Palm Tungsten to a Zire, then to a Cingular Treo 650, combining three devices into one. I have since discovered that the Treo 650 seems to have a faulty transmission mode, as I can rarely be clearly understood by whomever I call. Am on the second (or third, I have lost track) and continue to have the same problem. I get five bars of reception but can't be understood on the other end. A bit of a problem when one is trying to call 911. Am constantly told I am "breaking up". The repair shop says it "Can't duplicate the problem". OK, then I do not want to give up all the info I have stored in the fool thing, and the 750 seems to have a different system, so I thought I would try that. All the stuff I could find seemed to indicate it wouldn't be a problem to upgrade. When the 750 arrived, I tried to install the software from the CD on my Windows XP computer. No dice. Setup encounters an error and closes. Can't even look at the files, because setup tries to run any time I access the CD. From any drive. Gave it to my girlfiend to check on her computer, and the CD seemed to run fine. Other CDs work just fine on my computer. Must be some kind of conflict, but what? Tried calling the AT&T number that suggested they could help with setup, and was first connected to the business center, they routed me to the laptop center, who routed me to the network center, who said they would have to bring in the Palm customer service and connected me to a Mac guy that dumped me back to a menu that took me to someone for whom English is a second language with whom I was trying to communicate over a very poor satellite connection. They made no sense anyway. telling me first that I couldn't have two desktops running (wrong, my girlfriend has my old Zire and the CD worked fine) and then insisting that the serial number on my device had to start with a P, when it clearly does not have any alpha characters in it. Gave up on that route of assistance. Managed to get the new ActiveSync installed from my girlfriends computer over the network. Great. Now let's get my 650 synced with Outlook (which I have not used at home) and see if we can move on. Nope. First I have to update Outlook 2000 from the old Win98 to my current XP. Find the old CD, and square that away. OK, now sync to Outlook. Nope. The sync program gives an error, saying it will only sync with Outlook 98, 2000, and XP(2002). Good grief. I have Outlook 2000, and the software apparently does not recognize it. If the Palm doesn't work, there is no reason for me to keep this phone, and I am very close to returning it and abandoning the Palm entirely when I upgrade to something that works, although I dread re-entering all that information.

This question was solved.
View Solution.

Thanks for the feedback. Today I installed an Enterprise version of Office 2007 I purchased a while back, but had not yet installed. Microsoft presented a few challenges, but they were quickly resolved. I then downloaded the appropriate conduit from Palm, and synced the 650 with the handheld overwriting the computer. Then used Active Destop to sync the 750. Satisfied I had moved as much info as possible, I called AT&T and had them move the phone number to the new Treo.
Bonus! When the guy at AT&T called me on the new phone to verify it, he said it sounded better than my landline.
Sorry for the streaming paragraph. When it is late I tend to write like I think.

Versa Mail sync for Treo 650

The company I work for recently changed the email server to an exchange server with Outlook as the front end application. Before we had an Oracle conduit to interface our Outlook applicaton with the prior email server and I was able to sync my Treo 650 with the server using a company-supplied interface and Chapura PocketMirror. Now with the exchange server, my company provides the Versa Mail application 3.5.4 but it only supports Treo 700 with 1.10 VZW software version. Can I use this software setup with my Treo 650? If not, is there a Versa Mail version that will allow my Treo 650 to sync? I only want my Treo to sync with the system, I'm not interested in receiving emails directly to my smartphone. Please help.
Post relates to: Treo 650 (Verizon)

What is the Exchange Server version? Is it 2007 or 2003? You should be able to sync with server 2003 with the version on the phone.

Ical stopped syncing to treo 650 and other quirks

I have been using ical with the palm software on my treo 650, but now updates to my calendar aren't syncing.
I don't know of any changes that I've made, and I think I have checked all of the settings.
I don't know if this is related, but a couple of weeks ago my ipod suddenly said "not configured to this computer" or something like that, so I had to delete my entire library of music and re-import it.
Also, the settings for Safari had to be reconfigured.
Hmmm....does anybody have any ideas why these programs are acting like that?

Welcome to Apple Discussions.
There have been widespread, unexplained issues involving iSync and Palm devices, many of them involving an inability to synchronize at all with iCal. I've seen no specific solution for such problems.
While I never experienced a complete failure of calendar information to pass in one direction or the other, I did have a number of easily demonstrated, repeatable errors crop up with my Treo 600 and iSync under Mac OS X 10.4 and iSync 2, which had never occured under prior releases. For example, the Unfiled calendar would periodically pop up, even though I had selected another calendar - Palm devices - into which Palm-created calendar entries were to be transfered. And, I was never able to synchronize more than three of what were then twenty-seven automatically created birthdays, in the Address Book generated Birthdays calendar. And there were a host of other issues, including the home vs work address label problem, the inability to synchronize more than one address, data duplication within records and occasional record duplication, and other annoying shortcomings.
I simply got fed up, and updated to The Missing Sync for Palm OS version 5. What a difference! All of the quirky iSync behaviors are now a thing of the past. While it seems ridiculous that you would have to install an additional third-party application to synchronize correctly, my experience with iSync - particularly since the release of iSync 2 and Mac OS X 10.4 about six months ago - tells me that it is.
If you are interested in exploring this comprehensive, long-term solution, you can find more information about that application here:

Treo 650 Update 1.05a -- do not download (at least not VZW custs)

Has anyone else had a problem with the VZW 650 1.05a update? I tried it and had some issues. It got into a continuous loop when trying to update / install the E911 portion. I called VZW support (Palm directs you to them). The support rep found that this is a known issue, Palm has no idea why it's happening, and the only way to fix it is to send a new phone. VZW no longer offers the 650 new, only refurb'd, I refused (because they can't guarantee the version, and 1.03 has issues, and we couldn't find the 1.04 update). So they offered to send a brand new 700p. I've not heard tons of great things about them, but it's my only option. There are currently no warnings on either website. This is just to serve as a warning--update your Treo 650 at your own risk!
Post relates to: Treo 650 (Verizon)

The upgrade to my Treo 650 was going nowhere either. I did the update twice and even did the hard reset with the same results, it just kept rebooting.
Today I called Palm and got a very helpful support person that got the problem fixed for no cost. Here are the steps.
1. Back up everything!
2. Remove your memory card.
3. Do a HARD RESET. Clear it all out.
4. Do a sync again but this time create a new user (ex. TEMP). You are trying to create a clean install with no additional software. With the default method your sw was being reloaded. If you are using another conduit (ex. Intellisync) make sure to change it to the new user name.
5. Now do the upgrade sync process. The program will start doing a sync and then load the ROM upgrade and start loading it. It takes about 12 mins but it will complete this time. You should actually see the ROM upgrade message and a process bar.
6. Finish the update per instructions.
7. Verify your ROM version it should now be 1.05.
8. If ROM is correct do another HARD RESET to delete TEMP user from Treo.
9. Go into Palm Desktop and delete the TEMP user. (User: on the upper right corner)
10. Reset your conduit back to your user name if necessary.
11. Install your memory card (in case you write into it during sync (like Avantgo) )
12. Do another sync and this time select your own user name.
13. You should be back in business.
Good Luck, It worked for me and didn't cost me a cent.

"copy phone #" button on Treo 650 does not work!

has anyone else experiend this:
when i'm trying to add an unrecognized phone number into my contacts and i click on the "copy phone #" button, nothing happens.
any suggestion?!? thanks in advance!
Post relates to: Treo 650 (Verizon)

I'm having the exact same problem. I also hear the error beep when I try to use that button.
Though using "Add to Contacts", copying the # from there, then deleting the new contact is a possible work-around, it sure isn't efficient.
I just emailed a report of this to customer support, not having found this posting the first time I searched through the forum. We'll see what kind of a response I get back from them. I'm guessing due to the general process of things, and due to other shortcomings of the "Call Log", it might just be easier to find a replacement application? Anyone have any suggestions, preferably free? I didn't see anything appealing at PalmGear (free or otherwise).
(Surprisingly, I can't find any other mentions of this issue, on Google or elsewhere! Though I don't see how we can be the only people with this problem. Just to eliminate the possibility of any conflicts with other software, I did a backup and hard reset, and still had the issue.)
My software version, according to "Phone / Options / Phone Info / Software" is "Treo650-1.04-CDMA", and am running "Palm OS Garnet v.5.4.8".

Palm Desktop 6.2.2 (Treo 650)

Palm Desktop 6.2.2 evidently was rushed out the door with features missing: No task (To Do) alarms; no contact (Address) birthdays; always opens full screen (an annoyance on my 23" wide screen monitor). Will this crippled version be updated, or is this the end of the line for Palm Desktop? If it will be updated, any idea when?
Post relates to: Treo 650 (Unlocked GSM)

Palm Desktop and Hotsync are no longer owned by Palm. When Palm was split into PalmOne and PalmSource, PalmSource got the software. PalmSource has since been acquired by Access Company of Japan, who provided an underfeatured version. Palm has no legal right to modify the software (unlike what they did to 4.1.4) unless they purchase the software from Access. There is no indication that Palm has any intention to do this as Palm is working on a new Linux kernel OS, which should be on new devices in 2009. Access is also creating a competing Linux based OS and probably has no desire to work on enhancing the minimal product they delivered to Palm.
Unless you are running a Vista computer, there is absolutely no sane reason to use the Access Desktop. If you are running Vista, I'd suggest you review a few threads about using 4.1.4 with Vista.

taoryu, Welcome to the discussion area!
First of all how do you post a new topic on Apple Discussions.
It' very simple:
You go to the Apple.com > Support > Discussions > Mac OS X v10.5 Leopard > Mail and Address Book discussion area.
Click on the link titled "Post New Topic".
I have some friends who have prying eyes. I have some valuable information come through apple mail. They are not on the computer that often, so I'd rather NOT make a separate user account, but for the few times they are, I don't want Apple Mail so easy to access. Is there a way of securing the information like a password. EVERY email application I've seen has this option, Apple Mail must have something similar. Any ideas???
You already know the answer. Create a separate OS X user account and force them to log into that.

To the best of my recollection, the 9/16/08 Date Book HotSync failure shown above roughly coincided with the onset of similar failures when I have attempted to HotSync the same Treo with the Windows XP Pro box I use at work. I don't know whether the HotSync failure on the Windows Vista Box I have at home preceded the failure on the XP box I use at work or vice versa, but I have to wonder if a HotSync failure for an App on one box can trigger similar failures for the same App when one attempts to HotSync it on other boxes. I've trolled this help forum and haven't found any leads. I really need to get my calendars at work and home back on the same page, so I would greatly appreciate suggestions. jfzaehringer

There may be database corruption causing the issue. Click on the following link for the program called DbFixiT. This program has a trial version that you can download and install on your Palm OS device. The trial version will scan for database corruption and then report the corruption. You can then find the records causing the problem and fix them yourself or you can purchase the program and have it automatically fix the records.
