I have been trying to sync a Palm IIIc with my
Powerbook which is currently running Tiger (I cannot
run OS 9 at all).
I bought the IIIc on eBay and it works flawlessly
except for the fact that it won't sync. I can click
on the hotsync square on the screen of the IIIc and
get two options :
1. Direct Serial
or
2. IR (Infrared) to PC/Handheld.
It came with a cable that has the docking connection
on one and and a dual splitter on the other - one
lead has the serial (female) end and the other is a
USB connector. I am able to charge it on the PB
using the USB but likely only because it is a powered
USB port.
I have tried two different serial to USB adapters and
so far, the Powerbook still is not seeing the IIIc.
A friend is giving me a cradle from his old IIIe but
it has a serial connection. I expect I will have the
same problem with this cradle.
Does anybody have any suggestions ?
Is there an adapter that can be used with OS X/Tiger
I have installed Palm Desktop 4.2.1 and have iSync.

Hi,
I have the same problem with my IIIc and powerbook G4 (no syncing with isync).I went ahead and bought the keyspan serial adaptor and still can't get the palm to sync. I also have desktop 4.2.1, running Tiger. I can get the palm to Hotsync with a PC via the standard serial port as well as the Keyspan serial adaptor to usb.

Based on your post it sounds like you would like to sync your iBooks content with your computer. I have located an article that may help you in this situation. While you can sync this data with your computer you can also use the sharing button to send PDFs using various sources:

When trying to sync my iPad to my computer, I get the error "the iPad is synced with another iTunes library.

When trying to sync my iPad to my computer, I get the error "the iPad is synced with another iTunes library. An iPad can be synced with only one iTunes library at a time." I only have one iTunes account, so I am a little confused. If I select the option to "Transfer Purchases, I get an error message that says "Attempting to copy to the disk failed. You do not have enough access privileges for this operation."
Any suggestions is appreciated.

Have you synced to this computer before?

I received the same error message after I had recently updated iTunes to 10.5.1 and I had wirelessly updated 13 apps. I had to go into iTunes and select Apps, on the bottom right it said I needed to update 13 apps. I updated the apps via iTunes and then synced again without an issue.

Hmm. It could be an indication or a damaged or dying hard drive. I would recommend doing a disk diagnostic on the iPod's HD using the instructions given by turingtest2 in this older thread. He also covers what the resulting numbers indicate.

If necessary, post the resultings numbers and we can verify what the next steps to take.

HT1535 ting stuck on "Waiting for changes to be applied" does i keep trying to sync my iphone 4s but it wont finish the sync it keeps getting stuck on anyone know why ?

i keep trying to sync my iphone 4s but it wont finish the sync it keeps getting stuck on "Waiting for changes to be Applied" has anyone had a similar problem? and what should i do ?

I know that most of these posts were put up a little while ago
But.
I too had a similar problem and an "error" message (waiting for changes to be applied)
- my thoughts were:
Something to do with update to IOS 7.4
Corruption
Itunes software issue
After a LOT of research, I found a simple step that solved this issue for me.
I had been running my sync (pre - IOS 7.4) as automatic - see the options section under the summary tab
This can be viewed when you click on your device - right up the top you'll see tabs
SUMMARY / INFO / APPS / TONES / MUSIC / MOVIES / TV SHOWS / BOOKS / PHOTOS etc.
I changed my selection to manually manage music and videos and tried another sync
Wha La!
It began to copy over 700 songs that had not properly synced to my Ipad 2
BONUS: it then started to sync my videos again.
Hope this helps somebody.
It certainly made my life less frustrating
Downside: I have to MANUALLY manage - but it's better than all the hassles
NB: I don't know why this error occurs and I'm not sure this fix will work for everyone's issues but it can't hurt.

HT1848 There is no "transfer purchases" button when I try to do this! My only option is to erase and sync... How do I transfer the music from my iphone without erasing it??

- You can only sync an iPod to one iTunes library/computer. You can however, manually manage music and videos among different libraries.
Go to iTunes>Help>iTunes Help>Sync your iPod....>Sync You Device>Set up Syncing>Sync your device manually and follow the instructions.
- If y wnat to switch syncing libraries/computer see:
go to iTunes>Help>iTunes Help>Sync your iPod....>Sync You Device>Set up Syncing>Sync your device manually and follow the instructions.

Can't sync Palm Centro and Outlook 2007/Windows 7 - please help!

Hello,
I've never posted on a forum, but I'm at my wits end...! I've been trying to get my Palm Centro to sync Contacts/Calendar/Memos to Outlook 2007 on my new laptop for a week now with no success. It used to sync just fine to my old computer with Windows XP and Outlook 2003. Then that computer crashed (my Outlook files were backed up on an external harddrive). I received my new computer with Windows 7 XP (32-bit) and Outlook 2007.  I've downloaded the Palm Desktop 6.2, Windows 2007 Conduit, and Software Update 1.03 (Windows installer) for Centro for Verizon.
When I sync my phone to my new Outlook, it completes all 12 steps, but does not load Contacts/Calendar/Memos to Outlook.  This is a list of the error messages:
   HotSync session started on 04/14/10 12:11:25, and completed in 100.0 seconds

Can someone please help me transfer Contacts/Calendar/Memos from my Palm Centro to my computer's Outlook 2007?
I've ready about 3rd party software in posts (Pocket Mirror), but I don't know if it applies here because the Contact/Calendar/Memo information is in my Centro - not in Outlook. I need to get it from my Centro to Outlook 2007.
Any help is greatly appreciated! Thank you!

I have a Pre Plus and am using CompanionLink software. If the Centro is like the Plus (which I believe it is) it will not sync with Outlook. Here is a link to Companion Link:
http://www.companionlink.com/index.html
I have been using this and it works great. On their site you can choose the phone and the particular program you need to sync with and choose which you way you want to sync.
Hope this helps
Sorry hat, the Centro has absolutely nothing in common with a webOS device! It runs PalmOS. Nice of you to reply with your suggestion though!

Something I noticed in your post - you installed Palm 6.2.2 AND the 2007 conduit. Palm Desktop 6.2.2. has the 2007 conduits built into it already, and the patch is not needed. Whether this is the cause of your problems, I'm not sure, but I've fielded several posts of the same issue where the user did the same thing you did!
I'd suggest doing a clean uninstall, and reinstall of Palm Desktop 6.2.2 only.
I admit, I do not use Outlook, nor Win7, so I'm giving you my best guess at a way to solve your problem. Hopefully, this may lead to a solution!

Can't sync palm to microsoft outlook

I can't sync (transfer) the information from my Palm desk top to Microsoft Outlook, even though the hot sync button does option me to do so. The data doesn't appear in Microsoft Outlook. Any one know what to do?
Post relates to: Zire

Look here for the "switch":
Start Button/All Programs/Palm/PIM Conduit Switch/Sync with Outlook.
If you don't have this entry, then you may need to run your installation disk again and look for the step that asks you which program to sync to...

I'm trying to sync my firefox and it won't accept my password.

Firefox Sync won't accept my password and when I tried to reset it I keep getting hung up on the "An unexpected error occurred. If this continues, please contact support." response after filling out the "Reset Password" fields. I wan't to sync Firefox for this pc. How can I get around this?
== This happened ==
Not sure how often
== Today: Wednesday 28 July 2010

I solved the problem. Apparently, when I tried to sign up in sync the first time, it didn't go through. All I had to do is re-apply. I used the same username and everything (that's how I know it didn't go throught the first time). My Firefox is now synced and there are no further problems.
P.S.
If only I could sync my Firefox bookmarks, calender and notes with Opera, Safari and Chrome. That'd be great. I like using different browsers for different purposes. When I need the browser to disappear so all I see is what's in the window, Opera works best. Firefox can't disable the tool-bar "Auto-hide" feature in full screen mode. And Safari doesn't have a Hot-key for full-screen. At least not that I've seen.

Sync Palm m500 w/outlook 2007

I have Windows xp on a laptop. For the life of me, I am unable to get my m500 to sync w/ Outlook 2007. I downloaded conduits to my computer. I attempted to hot sync. I get the following message log: What am I doing or not doing??
ERROR: The following file(s) could not be installed to the SecureDigital (SD) Card because there is no application on your handheld to open these files.
If you have recently installed such an application, please run that application and then perform a HotSync operation.
OutlookConduit.cnt
setup.exe
Install To Card synchronization failed
Conduit Error: Unknown error. (1000)
Post relates to: Palm m500

I'm glad you're aware that the files need to be installed on your computer, but why are they going to your SD card?
Unless the download gets correctly installed to your computer, you're at a standstill!
Did you look for the files in the folders as I suggested? Were they there? Did you remove them? Most likely you'll find them in /Card Inst/Slot-SD/
After you correct this error, depending on your version of Palm Desktop you'll either have to rerun the Installation Disk and when the prompt comes for "Sync with Palm Desktop or Outlook" you'll have to direct it to use Outlook.
If you have a newer version of Palm Desktop installed, there is a software "switch" available. Go to Start Button/All Programs/Palm/PIM Conduit Sync/Sync with Outlook.
