How to copy the data from Palm Desktop on a PC running Windows 8.1

If like me you still find the Palm Desktop data (addresses, calendar, notes, etc.) handy and use it long after throwing the combined capacity and 'sync', you can see this is useful.  I bought a new PC running Windows 8.1 and had problems with data transfer due to a problem as I understand it, which does not exist in Windows XP, Vista or 7 versions.  Here is a summary of a way to easily transfer data from these earlier versions if you have a USB flash drive (or Dropbox, Google Drive, whatever) very convenient:

(1) Download Palm Desktop 6.2 or 6.2.2 to your new PC.  Give a user name exactly as it exists in the database from your old PC.  This name will serve as Office Automation to create a folder name of six letters (an abbreviated version of your name) to hold the data that Palm Desktop will turn upward.  Wait a few seconds for this to happen, and then close the application on your new desktop.

(2) in your old PC you want to transfer data from, find the folder named "Palm OS Desktop" which should exist in 'Documents' under path of folder and subfolders 'Users' as > your subfolder name > Documents in Windows 7 (can also be Vista) or may be under "Documents and Setting" folder in Windows XP.

(3) in this folder "Palm OS Desktop" search this subfolder of six letters of your name and select this whole subfolder and select 'Copy' or Ctrl-C

(4) locate the same name of subfolder in your new PC (which will have data zero), delete and then 'paste' the subfolder you "copied" in the exact same location.  If you did it right, Viola!  Your new desktop PC should display all the transferred data, once you open the application again.

Most of the same procedure works with PC Windows 8.1 (probably also Windows 8).  What I found different is that the subfolder of data created under "Palm OS Desktop} had 7 instead of 6 characters with a"0"(zero), added as the last character.  When finally, you copy and paste this subfolder in the new PC there so rename and add "0" for the Palm Desktop to locate these data.

I hope this helps.

Data in XP is located in C:\Program Files\Palm (or PalmOne) \ < your HotSync name truncated > \Backup.

HotSync for Win8 has been available for quite a while now!  See the post at the beginning of this section called "64-bit Windows USB drivers for Palm Desktop" for instructions and driver downloads.

Palm Desktop 4.x and 6.2.2 use different database formats - 6.2.2 went to .mdb as an extension.

Best way to migrate data is to perform a HotSync on the new machine, or use the built-in in Palm Desktop Export/Import option.  Export the addresses and calendar files, and then copy those of the new machine.

The import option to retrieve data.

  • Convert data from Palm Desktop to Outlook?

    Is it possible to convert the data for my wife and my Palm Centros currently with Palm Desktop to Outlook 2007? I hope that there is an automated process available, although I don't see anything in a (admittedly quick) look on the Palm website. Any tips? Suggestions? Is there a third-party tool? I expect to simply do a conversion at once...

    TIA-

    Ken Mayer

    hirschv, have a look here on your PC:

    Start button / all programs/Palm/PIM led Sync / syncing with Outlook.

    This is the 'switch' that redirects your Centro to Outlook data.    Palm Desktop by Access 6.2.2 conducted Outlook 2007 integrated into the program, but the version 4.x is not and will require a patch to download first on the Palm support pages:

  • Move the data from Palm Z22 for palm M125

    My Palm Z22 batteries do not hold a charge.  I recently bought a Palm M125, but have been unable to transfer data from the Z22, the M125.  My op system is Windows Vista Ultimate 32-bit Edition processor.  Is it possible to move the data?

    If the Z22 still works, the best way to transfer your data is for her beam to the M125.  At least, for the PIM of Palm of basic data (e.g., calendar, Contacts, memos, to-(tasks)).   On the Z22 in calendar, switch to the display of the day (not the order of the day).  In the menu, select the category of beam, choose the date range and select all from the drop-down list category.  Make sure that receiving IR is selected in the receiving device.  Align them face to face on one foot out and tap the beam.

    In Contacts, select the category in the upper right, then open the Menu and select the category of beam.  Same process for tasks and memos.

    Data and third-party applications might not let u their beam.   In addition, you will a newer device a lot older with an older operating system that may not work new apps.  So, after you transfer your PIM data, try beaming your third-party apps at a time to see if they run again.  The Z22 Launcher screen (at home), open the Menu, and then select the beam.  Highlight apps one at a time and try to beam at the M125.  My guess is that apps like Documents To Go might not even run, if they let u beam, because they were written for the newer versions of Palm OS than what works the M125.

    There is also an upgrade process where you can do this thru Palm Desktop when you switch devices.   But again because once you go towards the back to an older device, there are some compatibility issues with the applications, databases and files of the system, not to mention the questions according to what version you use Palm Desktop.

    Let us know if ensoupler works, or if you encounter any problems, in this case, we can go to the ugrade process.  Also, let us know what version of Palm Desktop you will synchronize with.

  • copy the data from the columns box

    Hi all, I have multicolumn listbox and I deleted all the lines both vertical and horizontal lines and columns headers.when while, I run my vi, some string data are introduced into the list box. However when I try to copy a line of string in the drop-down list, I am unable to do (I can't select a line,... the idea is to select a row in the list box so that I can paste it somewhere else... That's how am supposed to allow some feature of the list box to be able to do this... any help? Thanks already

    Hello

    If I understand your problem, you want to copy the values of time and the description at once and paste the entire line in a txt for example, no? Unfortunately, the listbox is as an array of 2D channels and each field is a different value of this table 2D. You can copy a value at the time when the VI does not RUN otherwise you can use a property node to display the name of items and that the copy and paste values (always a time value) also using the VI.

    I hope the information is useful for your application

  • How to get the data from more than 100 domains in bulk API V2.0?

    Hi all

    I try to get data from Eloqua by APIs in bulk because of big data.

    But my Contact 186 fields (more than the majority of export limitation 100). I think I need to get all the data by 2 exports.

    How could I corresponds to 2 parts of a line and join together?

    I'm afraid that any change of data between 2 relative to exports 2 synchronizations would make different order.

    FOR EXAMPLE:

    1. any document is deleted or modified (if it matches do not filter) after obtaining data of the first part and before getting the second part, then everyone behind it would have back in part result.

    2. the data in some fields (included in both parts) are changed between the 2 synchronizations, then the values of the second part are more recent but the values of the first part are old.

    All suggestions should.

    Thank you

    bhuang -

    I don't know that you ever go to work around the fact that things will change in your database while you are synchronizing the data. You have to have a way to create exceptions on the side of the synchronization.

    If I pushed Eloqua data to a different database and had to contend with the problem of matches change while I'm syncing, I would create a few additional columns in my database to track the status of synchronization for this folder. Or create another small table to track the data map. Here's how I'd do.

    1. I would have two additional columns: 'mapped fields 1' and '2 fields' mapped. They would be all two datetime fields.
    2. I would do only one set of synchronization both. First of all, synchronize all records for email + 99 fields. Do the entire list. For each batch, the datetime value of the lot in 'mapped fields 1' column.
    3. I would then synchronize all folders of email + other 86 fields. Repeat the entire list. For this batch of the datetime value of each batch in their 'mapped the 2 fields' column to now().
    4. For all records that had only 'mapped fields filled, 1' but' fields mapped 2' was empty, I would be re - run the second query Eloqua API using e-mail as the search value. If no results were returned, I would remove the line. Otherwise, update and the value 'mapped fields in 2' now
    5. For all the records that were only "fields mapped 2', I re - run against the first email query API Eloqua, fill in the missing data and define 'mapped the fields of 1' of the current datetime object." If the record has not returned, remove the line because it is probably not in the search longer.
    6. Finally, the value 'mapped fields 1' and 'mapped 2 fields' empty for all records, since you know that data is synchronized. This will allow you to use the same logic above on your next synchronization.

    Who is? It is not super clean, but it will do the job, unless your synchronizations take a ridiculous amount of time and your great data changes often.
