Hi, and welcome to the Palm Community Forums.
The forums are loaded with many threads about Vista and Palm Desktop issues, and the main Support page (the large organge Support tab above) also has a link to Vista support information.
Please start with this thread stickied at the top of the Windows Hotsync board, which has a link to the Vista support page. You'll need to download and install the new Vista-compatible Palm Desktop software.

Z22 and Vista

I'm new here so if this has been covered somewhere just let me know where to look.
I just purchased a Z22 and I haven't opened the box yet. I want to make sure that it is compatible with Vista. I downloaded PalmdesktopWin62 and ran the install. It stopped partway through and said it could not upgrade the version already installed. Well, I haven't installed anything yet. but if I go to Control Panel, it shows that Palm software has been loaded (I suspect it is really showing the partial installation I was running) but when I try to uninstall it, I eventually get the message that dll PalmdevC is missing and the uninstall terminates.
So, can someone tell me definitively whether the Z22 is compatible with Vista, and then help me figure out where I should go from here to get it loaded?
Thanks~
Cathy

You need to do a "clean" uninstall of Palm desktop. After the uninstall, install the version of Palm desktop that you got with the Z22.
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.
You don't need to do the first step above.
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.

CS3 and Vista problems

A few days ago I bought a new PC with Vista (MEDION® AKOYA® P36830
Authentieke Windows® Vista® Home Premium, AMD Phenom X4 9500 Quad Core (2,2 GHz), NVIDIA® GeForce 9600GT, 4 GB DDR2 RAM, 500 GB Hard Disk).
Since I will use this PC for my graphical work I tried to install a trial version of Photoshop CS3.
But... I can't even install the program on the PC !
The setup starts but nothing happens anymore.
In the Task Manager I can see that the process is running but that is all.
I've tried to change the priority of the process to higher and lower with it wont install.
I have read the Tech Note: http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=kb400950&sliceId=1 but even switching the RAM modules won't work.
Furthermore: NOT ONE ADOBE programm will install on this PC ! I have tried: Acrobat, Dreamweaver, InDesign...
Please what more can I do to get PS CS3 working before I buy the complete package ?
Sincere thanks !
Lambert

Lambert: There is a notice about the trial downloads on the opening page to the forums. EG: Don't do it right now.
Having said that, I'm running all the programs you are trying to install on Vista without a hitch. Doesn't solve your problem, but maybe something else is the problem.
What permissions do you have? Does your account have 'administrative'?

External Drive and Vista problems

I recently got an external drive with the intentions of keeping my iTunes library on it. So far I have had nothing but problems. In the advance prefs. I set the music folder location to my external drive. To test it, I would rip a CD to iTunes (which is installed on the C drive). Sure enough, the library would be in the folder that I designated it in the ex. drive. My problem is that when I open iTunes, it creates a folder under Music on the C drive which contains the library with the ripped CD. Whats the point of putting it on an ex. drive if it automatically puts it in a folder on my computer? Its frustrating because I set the path of the library to my ex. drive. Why is it also putting a copy of the library on my computer under a music folder? Is it a "Vista" thing or an iTunes problem? I need to get this sorted out because I would eventually like to put my whole library (backed up onto discs) into the library only on my external drive before I purchase a new iPod soon. I dont want any music on my C drive because I need the space.

You know what? I figured this out myself the next day with a solution that I haven't seen anywhere else. I understood all the operations of consolidating libraries to seperate drives, but what was creating the problem was vista's fantastic ability to stick anything ripped into the owner/music folder despite where the library path is pointed. The answer was so obvious and simple. I went into the advanced prefs. and changed the library path back to the default owner/music folder. Then I right clicked the owner/music short cut in the start menu, selected properties and made the whole "my music" folder located on the external drive. Now when I plug in my external drive and open windows, the library is pulled from the music folder on the external drive and runs like normal. When I remove the drive and open iTunes, it gives me an error that the library cant be found. When I right click properties on the music icon in the start menu, it says it takes up zero bytes, which is exactly what I want. Its funny how I utilized the problem to get what I wanted.

Z22 and Vista (again)

I just spent $25 on the phone to confirm with Tech Support that my Z22 is USELESS with Vista until they upgrade Palm Desktop. No matter what I do, it will not sync. The good news is, my data is not lost from the handheld. Bad news is, that's what I'll be working on for the foreseeable future. They had no ETA on when a new Vista-compatible Desktop will be coming out (days, weeks, months?) & could only say that "sometimes they work, most of the time they don't." Gee- thanks. So, be warned. Do not waste your time or money trying to get help from the tech folks- their hands are tied.

debmarie, just as we have asked every person on this forum who posts a "Vista" question, I ask you now: "Which version do you have? 32bit Vista, or 64bit?"
There are several large threads on the subject already in existence here. Have you read any of them?

Airport Extreme, Airdisk, and Vista - large file problem with a twist

Hi all,
I'm having a problem moving large-ish files to an external drive attached to my Airport Extreme SOMETIMES. Let me explain.
My system - Macbook Pro, 4gb ram, 10gb free HD space on macbook, running latest updates for mac and vista, external hard drive on AE is an internal WD in an enclosure w/ 25gb free (its formatted for pc, but I've used it directly connected to multiple computers, mac and pc, without fail), AE is using firmware 7.3.2, and im only allowing 802.11n. The problem occurs on the Vista side - havent checked the mac side yet.
The Good - I have bit torrents set up, using utorrent, to automatically copy files over to my airdisk once they've completed. This works flawlessly. If i connect the hard drive directly to my laptop (macbook running bootcamp w/ vista, all updates applied), large files copy over without a hitch as well.
The Bad - For the past couple weeks (could be longer, but I've just noticed it recently being a problem - is that a firmware problem clue?) If i download the files to my Vista desktop and copy them over manually, the copy just sits for a while and eventually fails with a "try again" error. If i try to copy any file over 300mb, the same error occurs.
What I've tried - well, not a lot. The first thing i did was to make sure my hard drive was error free, and worked when physically connected - it is and it did. I've read a few posts about formatting the drive for mac, but this really isnt a good option for me since all of my music is on this drive, and itunes pulls from it (which also works without a problem). I do however get the hang in itunes if i try to import large files (movies). I've also read about trying to go back to an earlier AE firmware, but the posts were outdated. I can try the mac side and see if large files move over, but again, i prefer to do this in windows vista.
this is my first post, so im sure im leaving out vital info. If anyone wants to take a stab at helping, I'd love to discuss. Thanks in advance.

Hello,
Just noticed the other day that I am having the same problem. I have two Vista machines attached to TC w/ a Western Digital 500 gig USB'd. I can write to the TC (any file size) with no problem, however I cannot write larger files to my attached WD drive. I can write smaller folders of music and such, but I cannot back up larger video files. Yet, if I directly attach the drive to my laptop I can copy over the files, no problem. I could not find any setting in the Airport Utility with regards to file size limits or anything of the like. Any help on this would be much appreciated.

Searched High and low for this vista problem

Hi,
I am using vista and Flash MX
Before you ask, I have to be able to use MX because someone I
do alot of work with uses Linux and I guess MX is the most updated
version he can use.
The problem is that the fonts in the properties and color mix
windows along with others. are impossible to read. They are pixely
and blurred. I can't even read it!!
Does anyone else have this problem or can you think of a way
to fix it? I've tried uninstalling flash and reinstalling it, that
didn't work.

You cant expect MX to work with Vista, MX was created before
Vista was even a thought in someones mind. I would suggest that you
create a new partition on your hard drive, and install XP on it,
then you can dual boot XP and Vista.

MOVED: 975x PUE and Vista start up problem

This topic has been moved to Vista problems.
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=108609.0

Hello mscott48, From your description, it appears that Vista may have become corrupted.
I'm surprised it lasted as long as it did before becoming corrupted.
If this is the case, you would beed to perform a clean install of Vista to resolve the issue.
I'm not sure if your system will boot from a USB device, but if it will, you would need to enter the BIOS and make sure the first device is set to a USB device and then try and boot the Vista DVD from your external DVD drive.
This may create issues with the boot loader for your Linux distro, and if it does, you would have to deal with that as well.
Just some thoughts.

Problem resizing Viewport with WebDeveloper in WinXP and Vista

I'm having a problem resizing the Viewport with WebDeveloper running in FF10 & FF11 on my WinXP and Vista machines. Quite simply, I'm trying to resize the Viewport to 320x420pixels (to represent an iPhone) but can't get it to go below 510px.
There's no problem in FF1 on Win7. I have contacted Chris Pederick, the developer of WebDeveloper, and he says his code is tha same in all cases, and pretty basic JS. So possibly the fault lies in the browser. I've not noticed this problem in earlier versions of FF (i.e around 3.5)

Try to hide all toolbars or open a second window and hide them there to see if that allows to make the window smaller.

Just purchased Wndows Vista and having problems with the port for Palm 125

I just purchased a Windows Vista computer and having problems with getting my Palm 125 to sync with the desktop. I get an error message saying: "Com1 not available" What do I do?
Thanks,

Sorry, that didn't work. I get no drop down menu from the Hot Sync Manager for the Serial Port. What comes up often is: "The selected port, COM1, is not available at this time. Hot Sync Manager will open the port when it becomes available."
Could it be the Norton Antivirus Firewall that is preventing the Hot Sync Manager to open the Serial Port? Just a thought. Thanks for your help.

Hello. I have PP 1.5. I have an Audio Techinca AT2020USB microphone. I have a couple different computers running 1.5 - The one that has XP as an OS, I can use the mic to record audio.

As Jim points out, CS3 was the first Vista-certified version, though many did get PrPro 2.0 to run on it.
Now, if PrPro 1.5 is running otherwise, you might have some luck with http://www.asio4all.com You'll need to download this freeware, install it, and then point PrPro to it in Edit>Preferences>Audio Hardware>Asio Settings for input and output.
Good luck,

https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=107394.0

Like you already mentioned: you are using some beta-drivers which may cause some trouble.
Please verify that you installed the driversin the propper order: chipset drivers first (VIA-drivers that is, you can have a look at VIA's website to see if there are any VIA Drivers for Vista you can use. Install VGA drivers after that and the SB drivers last.
Just a tip: I recommend you have a look at your power supply unig. A 350W PSU with your hardware probably is not enough to run your system on. It even may cause your system to act strangely, like you just described.
