Tungsten T2 - Windows 7

I have kept my old Tungsten T2 for use as a Rolodex. I have a new Dell Latitude E6510 and am unable to synch it up to the T2. Surely there are clever people out there who have long since figured this one out? Thanks. mlb2010

The two often suggested fixes are to right-click on the shortcut for Palm Desktop, then choose "Run as Administrator". The other was to turn off User Access Control (UAC). Control Panel/Users/Turn off UAC.
I would also suggest you read the sticky post at the top of this section entitled "64bit Palm Desktop drivers are here" since it appears you are using some old instructions. It is quite possible to sync via USB cable to 64 bit machines now.

Hi, and welcome to the Palm Support Community.
The Tungsten E is not technically compatible with Palm Desktop 6.2.2 as-is. You should install the free utility from www.pimlicosoftware.com called PalmHotsyncSetup which adds PD 6.2.2 compatibility to older Palm OS devices such as yours. Go to the web site and scroll all the way down to the bottom where you will see a link to download it.
Also, you'll want to make sure the correct Hotsync ID is showing in Palm Desktop.
(BTW, this is also covered in the "stickied" thread near the top of this board, about syncing with Windows 7 and Vista computers.)

Tungsten T3/Windows 7 Synching in 2014

I've seen a number of posts regarding Synching a Palm Tungsten T3 under Windows 7 Professional, but they are incomplete or outdated, or do not fit my situation. I have Palm OS on my Windows 7 Computer, but had to repair my T3, which now has no data on it. My Windows 7 Palm application is loaded with hundreds of contacts which I don't want to lose, but want to load onto my Tungsten T3. Any and all suggestions will be gratefully appreciated. And, by the way, is this the correct board to post this question?

If you were successfully Hotsyncing the T3 with this same computer, and no changes other than a repaired handheld, it should offer you to sync with your existing Hotsync ID the first time you connect.
But also wise to be cautious. Set the Hotsync conduits to Desktop Overwrites Handheld before you sync. Also make a copy of your Palm folders structure and contents and place the copy in a ditterent location. Then if something goes wonky when you sync, you will have a copy.
Good luck, let us know how it goes.

Tungsten t5 + windows vista

I have a palm tungsten t5 and a desktop computer with windows vista. which drivers should I install
Post relates to: Tungsten T5

Hi, and welcome to the Palm Community Forums.
The Palm site says Palm Desktop 4.1.4e. But the Quick Install tool won't work under Vista. You need to go with Palm Desktop 6.2 which is "officially" not compatible with the T5, then go to www.pimlicosoftware.com to download the free PalmHotsyncSetup utility.
Note, if your Vista is 64-bit you won't be able to sync via USB cable as there are no 64-bit drivers. You are then limited to Bluetooth or Infrared Beam sync.

Tungsten T3/Windows 7

I have a Tungsten T3 and recently switched my main computer to a Windows 7 platform. I can load PalmOne but it does not load the Sync Manager to the T3.
Anyone have any ideas (I couldn't find a patch/driver at the support site.)
Post relates to: Tungsten T3

A likely reason for your problem is you are using a 64bit version of windows 7. Palm and Access the people who wrote much of there software, never cared to write a 64bit driver for the palm desktop. Aceeca a Garnet devise developer wrote a 64bit windows driver so there devises would work on windows 64bit systems and offered it free of charge to the palm community a little over a month ago. The driver and install directions are available in the posted link. Just keep your T3 plugged into the usb cable during the driver installation process so you can find it in devise manager. It is not an executable file so you need to follow the directions given. Windows 64bit driver for Palm

Palm window? Are you referring to Palm Desktop?
Have you maximized the screen? What computer OS are we talking about? Windows? Mac?

Hotsync with Aceeca software not transferring contacts to my T5

Hi
I have a Tungsten T5 with Win7 64bit and after a lot of trying I used Aceeca software driver DVRx64 and it worked, I get a full sync of Outlook, all boxes ticked, but nothing appears on my handheld, i.e. Contact ticked as sychronized, but not on to my handheld. How can I get them from my PC to the T5. I cannot see any option. I am a bit exhausted to be honest. Any definite help would be very appreciated. I am using Office 2010...Regards from Alan
I am 80 and have had previous Tungstens under Windows 95 some years ago, just come back to this Tungsten T5 which seemed a good idea.

Lost the Memo application

Tungsten T5
Windows Desktop (XP)
USB Hotsyncing
I have been doing Hotsync for years and today, I found out I just lost the Memo Application. It's nowhere to be found and in the Info folder, I can't even find it listed (e.g.. VersaMail is shown to have taken up 1216 K memory) implying it does not even exist in my T5. I tried to Hotsync with my Desktop but it stopped at Memos for more than 90 minutes. The Log did not register the Hotsyncing at all. Is there a way of recovering the lost data in Memos. I have a very bad feeling about this. Can anyone help? I am desperate!
Post relates to: Tungsten T5

Hi, and welcome to the Palm Support Community. Sorry to read about your stress.
Memos is a core application of the Palm Operating System, so if it is gone from your handheld then something has become corrupt or you managed to delete a critical file.
The only way to restore the Memos application will be to perform a Hard Reset. This will erase all data from the T5 and restore a fresh copy of the Palm OS including all of the core applications such as Memos. The downside to this is that all Memos which were on the handheld will be gone...so, if you don't have a copy of them on your desktop, then they are probably gone. But, the upside is that if you had a previously good Hotsync and a copy of your Memos resides on your desktop, then they will be restored when you first Hotsync after the Hard Reset.
This article discusses the various types of Reset for different Palm devices:

Tungsten / E2 installation problem on windows 7 home premiun

I have the original tungsten/E2 installation CD and now I have a brand new descktop system , with the
windows 7 - 64bit home premiun edition
I am not able to install the software using the original CD . Windows 7 does not accept it.
Any tip how to do it ?

When my Tungsten E stopped working I bought another on e-bay. When I attepted a HotSync with my computer it appeared to be going OK.

All the information is still on my computer, thank goodness, but I cannot get it onto the "Contacts" files of the new hand-held organiser. Help!
Hard Reset the "new" E2. This Palm Knowledgebase Article has complete instructions for all types of Resets for Palm OS devices:
http://qa-kb.hpwebos.com/wps/portal/kb/common/article/887_en.html
Then try to Hotsync again. It should prompt you to either select your existing Hotsync ID, or create a new one. Select your existing ID.
If the result is the same, copy and paste the latest Hotsync Log from Palm Desktop so we can see what that says.

Windows Vista and No Driver Software for Tungsten E2

I have had my Palm Tungsten E2 for a few months. It works fine and did perfectly well with the Windows XP operating system. Recently I changed computers and have Windows Vista. I installed the program from the CD and then was alerted to go to the website to get the newest version to function with Vista. After doing all of this my Palm will not sync with the computer for it states that I need the driver software installed so that it can function appropriately.
I have done searches on teh computer and online looking for this "software" and it is nowhere to be seeen. Is it part of the Palm Desktop software? Is there a special place it is hiding? I followed the instructions on the Palm site regarding where to find the software manually, but could not come across it.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
Post relates to: Tungsten E2

So you have Palm desktop 6.2? Go to help-about in Palm desktop and look for the version number.
The driver is part of Palm desktop.
You can try this method to see if you can load the driver.
Open device manager on your computer by right clicking on computer, go to properties, hardware and then open device manager. Look under USB devices and see if there is an entry for Palm OS handheld. If you see it, right click on the entry, select uninstall driver. Disconnect the handheld and reconnect. Look at device manager and see if the handheld appears. IF it does then try and Hotsync again.
If it doesn't work, you will need to do a "clean" uninstall of Palm desktop and re-install.
Here are the instructions. Bypass the first step below regarding backing up your data, since you don't have any on the computer.
You should first make a copy of your data to have just in case something
happens. You can find your data files by going to Start --> Documents -->
Palm OS Desktop. Highlight your Palm Desktop username and right click and
copy. Then go to your PC desktop right click on a blank spot and select paste.
Now you want to uninstall Palm Desktop and remove everything that has to do
with Palm Desktop from your computer.
Go to the following locations on the PC and delete the folders listed below.
C:\Program Files\Palm or Palm One
C:\Users\[Vista Login Name]\appdata\local\virtualstore\Program Files\Palm or
PalmOne
C:\Users\[Vista Login Name]\appdata
*Note you may need to view hidden folders to get to appdata. To do that go
into your control panel and open folder options. Go to view tab and uncheck
hide hidden files.
Once this is done you will need to delete some registry keys from your PC Operating System.
Word of warning, going here and deleting the wrong thing can cause your PC
from starting up, crashing and deletion of programs and data. If you feel
you are unsure of yourself, see if you have a friend that can help you or a
PC technician that you can pay to help you. This procedure will show them everything they need to delete. To make sure we have a good copy of the current registry, we need to do a backup of the Registry.
Go to start on the PC, in the search field type "regedit.exe" without quotes.
Highlight COMPUTER, go to File --> Export. Should pop up with a Save As box.
Current location is fine, should be in My Documents or save to a location you will remember. In the file name on the bottom type "backup[todaysdate]" i.e. backup07072008. Next, the hard part.
The easiest way to make sure your working with the correct key, highlight the key i.e. palm quick install, and press delete on your keyboard. It will ask you, are you sure. Say yes. Do the same thing for all keys below.
If you make a mistake, stop what you are doing. And call a PC technician.
BUT do not turn off your computer.
The reg keys are as follows (Note: some of theses reg keys will not be here
but if they are delete them)
* HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\U.S. Robotics\Palm Quick Install
* HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\U.S. Robotics\PalmOne File Transfer
* HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\U.S. Robotics\Pilot Desktop
* HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Palm
* HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Palm, Inc.
* HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\PalmDesktopAutorun
* HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\palmOne
* HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\PalmSource
* HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\PalmSource or anything else that says palm
Next reboot your computer.
Then reinstall your palm desktop from the CD and do a hotsync. If it asks
you for a username and you synced your device before, put in 'test" if you
did not sync before create a hotsync name.

Windows 7 Ultimate Does Not Recognize Tungsten E2

After I upgraded to Windows 7 Ultimate, Windows will not recognize my Tunsten E2 cable in the USB port. I went to the Device Manager to look for a triangle in order to use Aceeca. However, there is no triangle.
I tried using a USB Drive in the USB port and it worked perfectly. However, when I tried my Tungsten cable again, it's like nothing was in the USB port. No recognition by Windows at all.
Any workable solution would be very much appreciated.
Thanks.
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Hello magicman265,
Be sure to follow the directions from this thread exactly. Did you attempt the HotSync before looking for the triangle?
Did you try the Batch File suggestion at the bottom of the first thread?
If at first you don't succeed, reboot, and try, try, again!

Hot Sync problems with Windows Vista using a Tungsten E2

Need Help solving a hot sync problem. Have a Tungsten E2, about a year old. Use Windows Vista OS. Can not sync to desktop. It worked fine for awhile then stopped sync'ing. Have reinstalled Palm Software, Have downloaded Palm 6.2. Have deleted all 3rd party apps,,,and their back up files. Particulary,,,,Epocrates apps, Took over my PDA. Installations and updates gets to synchronizing Calender and 'freezes' have left it on overnight figurng lots of data,,,,no progress. I need help. I really enjoy using this equipment. I use my PDA for all my scheduling of work shifts appts etc. I would appreciate some suggestions. Thanks in advance. Mike.
Post relates to: Tungsten E2

Hi.. Welcome to the Palm forums. So if I am understanding you when you try to sync it goes to calendar and freezes and never completes the sync. That being the case the first thing you want to do is go to the conduits and turn off calendar then sync and all should be successful, except calendar will not sync. What this indicates is that you have corrupted data in your calendar, most likely on the E2. Do a google search on your computer for a utility 'dbfixit' and download it to your computer. Extract it so you have the dbfixit.prc file and double click on it to put it in the installer. Then, insuring the calendar conduit is off, sync to install it. Once installed run dbfixit. This utility is free or can be purchased for (I believe) 12.95. The free version will search for corruption and problems let you know where they are and you will have to manually fix or delete them. If you register it, when you run the utility it will find the errors and fix them as well. Once all errors are fixed, turn the calendar conduit back on and you should be able to sync.

Windows Vista Ultimate Quick Install for Tungsten E2

Well, I have a Tungsten E2, which I use commenly, but not often. I just got a my dad's old computer for Christmas (which is a huge upgrade from mine, which was made in the 1990's I think), and he got me Windows Vista Ultimate for it. I can do everything with it; Palm Desktop, Hotsync, etc. except for using Palm Quick Install. I really don't feel like posting a picture, so I will just describe it. First I have to allow it to run, and then it checks Microsoft for a solution to use it. After that it says "palmOne Quick Install has stopped working
A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available.
|Close Program|

I have noticed around the site that many people are having problems with Vista, but I haven't seen any with this particular problem.
Thanks for reading,

Tungsten t3 will not sync with Windows 7 64 bit using cradle sync

Tungsten t3 will not sync with Windows 7 64 bit using cradle sync any suggestions?

Try a low-tech solution. Check the condition of the HotSync port connection on both the T3 and the cradle.
Look for any possible corrosion, coating, or bent fingers in the cradle. Sometimes a good cleaning with either Contact cleaner or isopropyl alcohol can work miracles! (Use a q-tip swabbed in it, do not pour it onto the PDA).
