Unable to sync iCal & Treo 650

Hi,
I seem to be having difficulties with syncing my Treo 650 Calendar events with iCal and vice-versa via iSync.
There does not seem to be any problems with Addresses.
Any tips please?
Thanks!

I did the same thing to solve the problem as I have a PB that I used to sync with the Treo 700p I have and through the .Mac account I keep them al happy. If you sync in Leopard you my lose all your address book on the Treo which happened to me a couple of times until I really understood what was going on. But, Apple isn't fixing this as I stated in another thread I created on the subject:
http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=5785468#5785468
I subsequently found out that the Palm OS synching conduit is stil there in Leopard's iSync 3.0 but is now unpredictable.

  • 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.

    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.

  • Mac and PC syncing of Treo 650?

    I had been successfully syncing my Treo 650 via BT using iSync until recently. I decided to sync via USB cable to my PC at work. This latter operation worked just fine, but when I took my Treo home and tried to sync via BT like normal it didn't work. The error said that "this user name is already in use by another handheld device". I have no other device with this name. I've searched for an answer on these forums and as well as treocentral.com and have no luck finding a fix. What dumb thing have I done to cause this problem and is there an easy fix for it? Thank you!!!

    If your Nano is formatted for a PC, it can be read by both a PC and a Mac but the software can only be updated from a PC. If you have chosen to manually manage your music, you can add music from both. If your Nano is formatted for a Mac, it can only be read by a Mac. Reformatting a Nano (by using the Restore option in iTunes) will delete everything on it.

  • Unable to sync Ical from Iphone 4 to MacBook since updating to Itunes 11.

    I am unable to sync Ical from my Iphone 4 to MacBook since updating to Itunes 11. (and yes, the Iphone shows up as recognised in the sidebar and will sync Ical from Macbook to Iphone.) All ideas welcome.

    If Damon's suggestion of resetting sync history doesn't fix the problem you most likely have a bad contact record in iCal. When they sync encounters the bad record it doesn't know what to do with it so it stops. To fix it you must find the bad record, open it, make a small change, and save it. An easy way to find the bad record is to create a new group and set the iPhone to sync to this group. Put a few records into the group at a time, then sync. At some point the sync will fail or hang. You have then narrowed the problem to a few records.

  • 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:

  • Macbook pro won't sync with Treo 650 via bluetooth.

    I can only do one sync with Windows XP before the comm ports fail and I have to reboot the computer to be able to do a sync with my Treo 650 via bluetooth. It works well but only once then the ports all shut down of something. Any suggestions would be apprectiated.

    Your signature says you have 10.3.x but presumably this can't be correct - could you please make sure it's correct to prevent confusion. 10.7.2 is required for iCloud - your Mac won't be able to sync with pre-Lion systems.
    The fact that you have iCloud accounts showing does suggest you have Lion: are they showing in System Preferences>iCloud, or where? You can only enter one there.
    Are the two different or the same? You could try deleting both and then starting the setup again from scratch.

        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

  • Unable to sync iCal and mobilme

    I performed a sync with mobileme last night and everything synced except iCal. I get the following dialog box.
    Calendars could not be synced due to inconsistent data.
    Confirm that your computer data is valid, then reset calendars on mobileme in system preferences.
    One problem is there is no data in iCal. This is a first time sync.
    The second problem is i can't find where to reset calendars in system preferences.
    this is a brand new 13 inch MacBook my old G4 PowerBook died.
    Thanks for your help in advance.

    I have made some progress in my particular situation. I now have stability with iCal desktop. What I did was rename the folder called iCal in Application Support, I renamed it with an x at the end so it would not be used unless I got rid of the x. That way I can easily go back to it. Then I used one of my earlier backups from the apple program Backup, restoring iCal folder in Application Support. I then renamed the folder called SyncServices in Application Support with an x at the end. Then when you just start up iCal it makes a new one. I think that is the culprit of all my problems. And so far all is well. I have not synced iCal to mobile me yet, I may not do it, that is where all my problems began. I don't really use Calendar on mobile me for anything anyway.

  • Setting up iSync on 2 Computers to sync with Treo 650

    I have a iMac G-4 and a new iMac G-5. The first sync was done on the G-4 with HotSync using the USB connection which did find and sync the G-4's Address Book for some unknown reason, but not iCal. Now, I'm working with the G-5 and trying to set up iSync with the Treo. Using Bluetooth, the G-5 can find the Treo but I get a dialog box that says "iSync cannot connect to this device".
    Could there be a conflict because the G-5 is using all the data that was transferred over from the G-4?
    I would appreciate any help out there. Thanks in advance.

    Welcome to Apple Discussions.
    No, there is not inherent conflict, although you must understand several things:
    It is a really bad idea to transport your Palm device as an effective 'storage vault' between two Macintosh computers, and synchronize with each. The correct approach is to pick one of these computers to synchronize your Palm device with, and keep the other Macintosh 'in sync' with the remainder of the pool using either .Mac Sync or MySync.
    http://www.mildmanneredindustries.com/mysync
    If you want to synchronize using Bluetooth, you should pick one Bluetooth-capable Macintosh to synchronize with, stick with that machine, then pair them by initiating the pairing from the Treo and confirming this pairing from your Macintosh. The first time you synchronize, you should overwrite the contents of your Palm device, so be sure that you are prepared to do so before you synchronize. If this means first synchronizing with .Mac Sync or MySync, then do that first.
    If you intend to use USB instead, again pick one machine to perform your Palm synchronizations with, but it need not be a Bluetooth capable machine. If you intend not to switch machines but do want to easily switch between the faster USB path and the more convenient Bluetooth one, purchase a copy of the Missing Sync for Palm OS which facilitates this activity. Switching back and forth using iSync is problematic.
    If you intend to use iSync and have added your Palm device to using the Enable Palm OS Syncing… option under the Devices menu—regardless of whether you have chose to use USB or Bluetooth—then you should be ready to proceed once you have followed the instructions which appear in the dialog boxes which appear when you select the option. [There is no other way to add a Palm device to iSync.] You must configure the actual synchronization profile before you proceed, however, by selecting the Tungsten device labeled with your HotSync name in the main window of iSync, an action which will drop down a configuration pane to enable your Contact and Calendar options.
    If you intend to use the far more flexible and robust Missing Sync for Palm OS, then you must follow the instructions they provide for installing and configuring that application, again being sure that your first overwrite the contents of your handheld during the initial synchronization event.
    Be sure that before you do so, in either case, that you back up your calendaring and contact information using the built-in back up options under the File menus of both iCal and the Address Book.

  • I am unable to sync ical to icloud.

    I have been for the past 3 hours to sync my ical on my imac to my icloud account. When I log into my icloud account online it shows the calandar as blank.  I have tried to turn on and off the calandar in system preferences (on my imac) mail and in the icloud system preferences and it does not sync up. I have a 2011 imac and lion OSX. 
    Is this common? I can see my calendar in google docs, on my imac in ical and on my ipad 2. But for some reason my icloud calandar is showing up blank.
    I made sure that I have been logging in with the same user name on all accounts.
    If anyone has any suggestions or help please let me know.
    Thank you!

  • Unable to sync iCal with iphone 4S

    What a mess!!
    I had Mobile me. It worked great. When it was shut down I tried to migrate to iCloud but it didn't work, I guess because I am running Snow Leopard. So I tried to just use iCloud to sync and it didn't work well, I ended up with multiple entries, missing entries, etc. So I scrapped that and went to syncing through itunes. When I upgraded my iphone 3GS to a 4S any old calendars on my mac that were part of mobile me wouldn't sync to the new phone, and I want all my past events there too. So I manually moved all the mobile me calendars in iCal to calendars I created on my mac. I deleted the old, then I redid the colors so that everything would make sense. Certain calendars synced, certain ones didn't, and the issue was not only mac to phone but phone to mac as well. So I manually made sure everything was on my mac and then hit the replace content on this iphone button thinking that it would just put everything back on my phone and now nothing is on my phone! It erased all my entries on my phone. It's all on my computer but nothing will sync to my iphone calendar. This is not what I expect from Apple. I have been a faithful apple user since before OSX, the first ipod, before the imac, and this is a huge problem and one of the main reasons I came to apple to begin with.
    Can someone help me!! I need these two to sync for work purposes!

  • Unable to sync ical

    I keep getting a message that says I can't sync my iCal because the server is undergoing maintenance or one of my other machines is syncing. But this goes on all day. What's up?

    Welcome to Apple Discussions.
    From the brief description you provided of the problem, this sounds like a more generalized issue with .Mac Sync than one with iCal. You can get help with such issues by searching, browsing, or posting an inquiry here, in the .Mac Sync forum.
