Disappearance of Palm Desktop

All of a sudden everything that my shows to Palm Desktop 6.2 is the Media Screen. The buttons for the rest disappeared without Contacts, to do, memos, or calendar. I tried to sync Organizer on written, I tried to launch the installation of repair, installation, change, and finally I uninstalled the Palm Desktop program and reinstalled everything - but still nothing of the Media window. Any ideas?

Are you using Vista?  If so, two suggestions:

Disable UAC (User Access Control).  Control Panel/users/disable UAC.

Try right click on the shortcut for Palm Desktop and select "Run as Administrator".

  • Palm Desktop 4.2: Palm Desktop 4.2 on Windows 32-bit 10

    This isn't a question, some information for fanatical Palm users who might be interested.

    Because I have some old software I want to continue to use, I installed the 32-bit version of Windows 10 on my HP Pavilion 1d21dx g6.

    I used to synchronize my Palm Centro on a machine to Vista 32 bit running Palm Desktop 6.2. Because some very useful features (such as the birthday in the calendar reminders) disappeared in this version, after setting up 10 32-bit Windows, I decided to try to use Palm Desktop 4.2, the version supplied with my Centro. I am happy to report that I have installed the software, did a HotSync, and everything went very well [WELL, i thought THAT this was the CASE - SEE below]. Now I have all my stuff on the phone and on the machine Windows 10, complete with birthday in the calendar reminders.

    The only problem that I had was settting place pipes HotSync for some Palm OS with counterparts of office applications, but in any case, I was able to get the pipes installed by the application of counterpart temporarily running in Windows XP compatibility mode. Once the pipes are put in place, it seem to not need to run anything in compatibility, or administrator mode [WRONG - SEE below].

    I have not heard a lot about the 32-bit version of Windows 10, but I like it. I found that it is very fast, and I still have to find an old Windows application that she will not be executed.

    I found a solution that worked for me. I realized that something on my setup of Palm caused my Palm user directory switch between C:\Program Files\Palm\Username and C:\Users\Username\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files\Palm\Username, leading to duplicate reports, missing documents and the General problems of HotSync. I do not know what exactly triggers the switch every time (I don't think it was just the question of admin rights as I at first suspected), but I think it had to do with some of my Palm to be older than other applications. In other words, some were apparently designed or implemented to date with new versions of Windows in mind, while others were not, and HotSync Manager could not deal with that, because I had everything installed.

    In any case, everything started to work properly after I installed Palm Desktop 4.2 directly in the folder C:\Users\Username\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files\Palm\

    (Of course, in all the above examples, substitute your own "Username" username.)

    My thought was to avoid the switch between the location of the traditional repertoire of the Palm and the location of the user directory style Vista by installing Palm software directory in the Vista style directory. I have not experienced any important matter. The only minor issue I have is that HotSync Manager does not automatically start despite being listed in the Startup tab in the Manager of tasks. I'm not going to tinker with compatibility modes and privileges trying to HotSync Manager starts when the computer starts. It is easy enough to just run it whenever I have to synchronize.

    You will also need to consider the order in which you install your office-side applications. For example, I found that one of my apps should be executed only once with admin rights so that he could establish his lines. Which seems to trigger a change in the location of the user directory for another application that I use - that does not allow the user to specify an installation directory. I got around this by implementing these apps in the order that I mentioned, while the other user directory would not be changed after creating the first led her.

    Of course, my solution has its limits, but it works for my single-user installation.

  • Palm Desktop 6.2.2: Palm Desktop 6.2.2 with Windows 10

    What is someone having the same problem:

    I installed Palm Desktop 6.2.2 on my Windows 10 system, sync'd and everything worked fine for about 30 days approximately.  The other day I started my computer, went to Palm Desktop and found all the files (in the left panel) disappeared EXCEPT media and install it.   I uninstalled and reinstalled several times (from sources stored and newly downloaded) and still have the same problem.

    Since the installation of Windows 10 I found Microsoft seeks to establish, it's default applications with a few applications (a real fight with MS / Chrome and MS / Adobe PDF).

    At that time, the folder that I can sync's Photo.   All other folders appear sync, but do not appear in the left vertical navigation bar.

    Everyone knows the same problem?

    Comments are welcome.

  • HP Mini 210: Palm Desktop (see 6.2.2) lost address book during and after the upgrade to Windows from December 10

    The problem is not with the HP Mini. This computer is running Windows 7 Starter and he Hotsyncs perfectly with my Tungsten C handheld. The problem is with a Dell Vostro, but because it is a problem of Palm, I hope you can help.

    My Dell Vostro has been upgraded to Windows 10 in September. I had a few problem get the Palm to synchronize at this time, but I thought her and successfully synched bases Memo, address and the Date of all the way up to 10 Windows update that Microsoft pushed around Christmas.

    The first Hot Sync attempt after the update given my address book disappear from desktop ONLY (running version 6.2.2) and I was not able to find a way to restore the address book on the desk.

    Handheld still works fine. As I said the HotSync with the HP Netbook (Windows 7 Starter Edition) and I would like to continue to use it as long as ITO still works.

    Try using the Import/Export built-in in Palm Desktop.

    On the PC that contains the data, go to File/Export (while the address book is open and being viewed).  This will produce a file that you can copy to the Dell PC.  Use a flash drive, Cloud Computing service, card SD - it doesn't matter.

    On the Dell, go to file/import and locate the file.

    Windows 10 has caused some 'quirks' to appear in Palm Desktop.  We learn that we will!

  • Palm Desktop 6.2.2 Windows 8 missing modules after the update to version 4.1.4

    After installing Palm Desktop 6.2.2 version 4.1.4 on my laptop to Windows 8 for use with my Palm Tungsten E2, I now only 4 modules... Fees, Note Pad, media and install. Where have calendar, addresses, etc., disappear to?

    Version 7.0.2 HotSync Manager also offers, USB, network and series, but NOT the Bluetooth in connection settings. I use an IVT BlueSoleil Bluetooth adapter and their driver/software version 8.0.395.0, which works very well with anything else.

    GoneFishin6, I suggest you clean uninstall/reinstall Palm Desktop.

    Your question is the first I've heard of.  Others report success with Win8.

    These instructions are for Vista, but should work for Win8.

    You first need to you a copy of your data to have just in case something happens. You can find your data files by clicking on start-> Documents-> Palm OS Desktop. Highlight your Palm Desktop user name and right click and copy. Then go to the desktop of your PC, click on a blank spot block and select.

    If this is the first time, you install Palm desktop and encounter a problem, go to the previous step. If you are not concerned about your data at this stage, go to the next step.

    Now, you want to uninstall Palm Desktop and remove anything that has to do with Palm Desktop on your computer. Go to the following locations on the PC and delete the folders listed below. [C:\Program Files\Palm or C:\Users\[Vista Palm connection name] \appdata\local\virtualstore\Program Files\Palm or PalmOne C:\Users\[Vista Login Name] \appdata * note you may need to show hidden folders to join appdata. To do than to go into your control panel and open folder options. Go to tab and uncheck hide hidden files.

    When you use Palm desktop 6.2, look in my documents or documents and delete the folder Office of PalmOS. It is the location of the PD 6.2 data files.

    Once this is done, you will need to remove certain keys in the registry of your PC operating system.

    Word of warning, go here and removing the wrong thing can cause your PC to start, crashing and deletion of programs and data. If you feel that you are not sure of yourself, see if you have a friend who can help you or a PC technician that you can pay to help you. This procedure will show them everything they need to remove. To make sure that we have a good copy of the current registry, we make a backup of the registry.

    Go to start on your PC in the search box type "regedit.exe" without the quotes.

    Point peak COMPUTER, go to file-> Export. Should appear with a save as box. Current place of residence is fine, must be within My Documents, or save to a location that you will remember. In the name of the file in low type "backup [todaysdate]" i.e. backup07072008. Then, the most difficult part.

    The best way to ensure that your work with the right key, select the key that is installation quick palm and press delete on your keyboard. You will be asked, you of course. Say Yes. Do the same for all the 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 the theses reg keys will not be here, but if they remove them)

    * HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\U.S. Robotics\Palm Quick Install * HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\U.S. Robotics\PalmOne File Transfer * Robotics\Pilot Desktop HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\U.S. * 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

    Then, restart your computer.

    Then, reinstall your Palm desktop from the CD and do a hotsync. If request you a user name, enter the name that is on your device in the upper right of the screen to hotsync.

  • Palm Desktop 6.2.2 download went site!

    I have been using my Palm TX with a laptop Windows 7 for several years and only tried to load the application Palm on a Windows computer, but the HP download site has disappeared (or does not).  I still have the original installation CD, but the Hotsync does not work with Windows 7.  I need to install Desktop 6.2.2.  There are a number of download sites, but I'm afraid, they come with adware.

  • Zire 72 s sync with Palm Desktop 6.2.2?

    Until now I used Palm Desktop version 4.1, which seems to have "disappeared" from my PC. I was HotSync with my 72 s Zire. It seems that the latest version of Palm OS downloadable Desktop (excerpt from the HP site) is version 6.2.2. Does anyone know what to download this latest version on my PC, then I'll be able to download information from my 72 s Zire and continue in the future HotSync. Or, put in other words, Version 6.2.2 work with Zire 72 s? If not, can you tell me where to download the 4.1 version of?

    Here are all versions of Palm Desktop. Officially, Zire 72 came with version 4.1.4e.

  • Palm desktop 6.2.2 lose data

    I tried to fix this with the support of chat with Palm without result.  From time to time my data disappeared from my desk calendar.  They said that the events are purged and backed up each week in the month, according to the period selected in the 'tools', but only 1 week can be chosen in my software.  I reinstalled the software, the same thing.  I can't imagine why someone wants to purge events regularly, I want a calendar for the story, it can provide in addition to future events.  In fact, recurring events have not been purged, separated events only.  Is this a bug in the software that could be fixed?  Or - is it the way Palm 6.2.2 is supposed to be and I need to move to a different calendar program?  I used Palm for years and this is new for me with Vista and 6.2.2.  Fortunately I backed everything up in anothere place, or I'd be really frustrated!

    Oh, okay. I thought it was a Z72. Yes, the Z22 is compatible with PD 6.2 and Vista.

    Some of the reports we've seen is that Palm desktop is open when the PC is turned off, is no is not a function of file - save after making changes.

    We are documenting cases of data loss and are studying the issue. Not sure if this is a problem Windows or Palm desktop.

    Palm Desktop had to be re-designed to function with Windows Access database.

    You have Outlook on your computer? It seems that sync'ing with Outlook, data loss is irrelevant at this point.

  • Error 1714: The older version of Palm Desktop by ACCESS cannot be removed

    Hi people:

    Does anyone know what specific registry keys, files or directories need to be cleaned for this error to disappear when installing Palm Desktop 6.2?

    Note that I had a previous version 4.1.4, which was damaged.   I ran Windows Installer Clean-up as well as CCleaner, but neither seems to fix this.  I also have to search through the registry trying to find any key 'palm' persistent and those nuke.

    Thank you

    Hello Soraya:

    The article had a very good description of how to clean the registry where "junk" stayed since the previous installations of Palm Desktop Installer keys.  I could then go from 4.0.2 to 4.1.4 without a problem.

    Excellent work.  This problem.

    Thank you

  • Palm Desktop 6.2.2 (Treo 650) displays only media

    For some reason, Palm Desktop suddenly displays only media. I can't see tasks, calendar or anything else. I don't see any way to display them. Hot sync works as always, but all I see is photos. This could have something to do with my having ran a registry cleaner recently. However, I reinstalled the program (using the repair option), and it still only displays images. What Miss me? I have to do a complete uninstall and reinstall?

    As mysteriously as the problem appeared, it has now disappeared. Everything is the display in Palm Desktop as it should. The only possible clue: earlier tonight a message appeared that Media Player had a problem and closes. Only Media Player is not running; around the same time, I had to reload my printer because it wouldn't print a document on hold. I guess something was messed up in Windows somewhere and this was Windows correcting itself.

  • 64 bit Windows7/8/8.1/10 USB drivers for Palm Desktop

    Thank you people much more to Aceeca.com (Palm OS Garnet NEW manufacturers), the USB drivers for Vista, Windows 7 and 8 Win 64 bit operating systems are available.  There are many users Palm Desktop 4.x strives also to the declaration.

    I have synced my TX my Vista64 laptop computer bits and Windows 8.1 HP spectrum X 2 hybrid successfully through my USB cable.

    The drivers are located here:

    Aceeca Driver Downloads

    (NOTE: as of today, 01/08/2016 Aceeca site to be down for 'construction'.)  Drivers can also be found here: http://www.palmdr.com/windows-7-64-bit-usb-drivers)

    Installation instructions for Windows 7 (from Aceeca) are included in the download.

    Basic instructions:

    1 download the drivers and extract them in the same folder.  Remember the folder that you extracted to.

    2. try to HotSync your device.  It will fail.

    3. open the Device Manager and look for the yellow Triangle next to the other "Acceca" or "'Palm device ' in the"Other devices"section."

    4. right click on the device and choose "Update driver software".

    5. choose "Browse my computer for software" and guide them to the folder that you extracted the drivers Aceeca.

    6 choose 'Next' in the driver and then file location window tell him 'Confidence always Aceeca Ltd. software', then click on the button "install".

    7. I received an error message (Vista64) who told me "the drivers have been installed, but the device could not be opened." I realized my TX had expired, and fell asleep.  I tried a HotSync and it worked!

    Good luck!

    NOTE: Palm Desktop 6.22 may only multimedia show and install.  Here's how to fix this:

    If Palm Desktop 6.2.2 shows only the media and installation, try this: right click on the shortcut for Palm Desktop, and then choose 'run as administrator '.  Other modules should appear.

    To Palm Desktop run as administrator every time in Windows 8 / 8.1:

    Close to Palm Desktop, if it is open.  (This is a very important thing to do when you use 6.2.2 - it has been known to lose data when a computer is shut down without closing the program!)

    Right click on the desktop icon of Palm in the metro screen, then choose "open file location".  You will now see the actual file for the shortcut.

    Right-click on the file "Palm Desktop" shortcut, then properties.  Now, choose the tab compatibility at the top.

    At the bottom of the Compatibility tab is a checkbox: "run this program as an administrator", click OK.

    Try to open the Palm Desktop, all parties must appear.  You can see a box opens when you close the program asking "did the program runs correctly.   I chose 'Yes', and it has been working fine since then!

    If you are using a much older PalmOS device and try using Palm Desktop 4.x, you will need this additional patch Pimlico Software:

    Forum member bobboffin has added this message:

    "After you try your first HotSync and failing (as expected) you may be unable to find any trace of the device in Device Manager, making the next step very difficult. It is me, and after some research, I discovered the following trick that allows Device Manager to display hidden and devices not present.

    Open Notepad and paste the following two lines are:

    Set DEVMGR_SHOW_NONPRESENT_DEVICES = 1
    Start devmgmt.msc

    Save it as SetDev.bat in My Documents.

    Open My Documents in Windows Explorer and double-click SetDev.bat. Device Manager opens.

    On the view menu, select Show hidden devices.

    You can now see in the other position of the device with a yellow triangle against it.

    You can now proceed to install the drivers according to the instructions.

    Note that the driver supports most versions of Palm OS. "I actually use an Aceeca Meazura 1000 rugged PDA running OS 4.1 - bobboffin.

  • Palm Desktop Access does not update

    I am trying to sync my Palm E2 with my Dell desktop (windows 7, 64 bits).  Palm hot sync seems to work very well, all 12 updates take place and the E2 and office reflect all the data has been updated.  However, when I go to access software, no data was transferred from the E2 on the desktop.

    Have reinstalled Desktop Access 6.2 and sought the C drive to see if there is another access to Palm and there are no. Not sure what the problem is?  I did the same process on my laptop yesterday, Windows 8, 64-bit and everything worked finre.

    Any suggestion would be appreciated.

    Have you installed the drivers Aceeca to win 64-bit operation?  Palm Desktop will not work otherwise.

    Check if there is another available in Palm Desktop user.  Many people have recently reported the same problem as yours, when all through transfers data but to a different user account name.   Click on the 'User' area in the upper right.

  • Palm Desktop Software

    I had a Handspring device and used the Palm Desktop 4.0.1 software on my laptop as an interface.  I have a laptop running Windows XP and I want to spend my Palm (AddressBook and calendar) data to another piece of software that is compatible with Windows 7 (I need a new laptop computer).  I tried to export the calendar data in a spreadsheet Excel spread but only see one record.  I watched go calendar data to Google Calendar, but Palm software format is not a choice of format on Google Calendar.

    Does anyone have ideas of how to do to export calendar to CSV or other data?  And did anyone know another software calendar which can also interface with my smartphone (android)?
