I used to have a Palm, and sometimes had issues with the sync. The simplest solution is to uninstall the Palm software from the computer and reinstall it. That sets the pipeline settings to default. If you can spot a pipeline setting that looks wrong, you could change it to see if that fixes it. I also found the handset that connects to the computer was not reliable, and went through a couple of them. When I got my Droid, I copied the phone book into it and threw the Palms away.
Palm is an example of a technology that dead-ended, and it’s only going to get worse. Sorry. :(
This Palm is for a specific use: At the race track, to handle trip/vehicle/weather data, rather than use a laptop. I’ve tried uninstalling and reinstalling, and nothing has worked.
I found a site that did a diagnostic on the drivers in my laptop and the Palm, and all the drivers need updating, which is not surprising to me. As soon as I can get the download I need, I think we will be in business.
About the only thing I use the Palm for (my own) is a camera, as I really like the size of the viewing screen. I’m sure it has other uses, but that’s the only one I’ve bothered with.
Thanks for the info. I will pass it on. The use of the Palm at the track seems to be a fairly “new” thing, since the software for it is just now available. I will let you know how things go.
