Installation of Palm Desktop on Windows 7

Initially, I tried to install from the CD that came with my Palm, but when he could not find the device drivers for my Palm Centro, which I've had for over a year, I uninstalled Palm Desktop, downloaded the latest version on the site and tried to reinstall again.  In both cases, the device drivers cannot be found and I don't know what to do, this is why I am contacting you today.  Please help - I hate having to get rid of my Palm and go to iPhone just because you guys are not all compatible with Windows 7.

  • installation of Palm Desktop 6.2.2 to a new PC

    I currently use Palm desktop 6.2.2 to store addresses and memos on my Windows 7 64-bit Pentium computer.  I have not HotSync to a portable device.

    I'm about to buy a new PC with an Intel i3 or i5 (Quad Core) processor.  I have to make a decision between Windows 7 Professional and Windows 8.1, and I want to keep my list of addresses and memos by exporting to a flash drive and then import to the new PC.

    My question is - Palm desktop 6.2.2 can be downloaded and installed on Windows versions?

  • Creative installer of Palm Desktop Cloud - why he hates Adobe software?

    There are a few real incompetence to write an installer that can not install if you already have the software of the company.

    So I have CS6 for Design and Web and Lightroom 4.x and have been pretty happy with it.

    But in August, there was an agreement to try the creative cloud for $19.99 per month.  I bit on the case and installed it.

    But realize... I don't need all the DEV tools, nor do I need all the Video tools so $50 per month may be a deal breaking in one year.  You create creative cloud master suites that correspond to some of the suites allowing you to sell or I give up the cloud and I think like a lot of other CS6 will become the de facto standard for years.

    HOWEVER,.

    I can cancel my CC this month is you don't put some REAL DEVELOPERS on the installation of the software.

    It took me 2 hours, BING, GOOGLE, and uninstalling CS6, Adobe reader, Adobe Player etc to get my first installed creative cloud.

    Today I received the message, there was an update on creative cloud Office.  I made the mistake of trying to update.

    I have now uninstalled CC Office and Setup is still give me the message of failure with no useful info, he did it to install first.

    So I guess I spent several hours the uninstalling and reinstalling the software Adobe cleaning.

    What FOOL wrote an installer which will fail if the person did any other software of this company installed.

    What FOOL fails to a test computer with a lot of your own software installed to see if it breaks your Installer

    What a FOOL out software applications users to uninstall your products whenever he needs an update.

    It is a failure of Adobe but any product team for the CC Desktop Manager application.  Time to clean the House and the team has to solve this problem.

    Know... The third time I was able to uninstall, clean and reinstall CC... IT will uninstall, clean reinstall CS6 and cancel my CC account and block CC Adobe to my Amex payments.

    This is not new... I can read for months and months of people having this problem.   Find the software of Adobe problem has with software Adobe and FIX IT.

    That is why the Government should have blocked the sale of Macromedia.  If Adobe has a decent competitor... It's the kind of thing that would cause people to change.

    Lack of competition has made it clear Adobe bother fixing bugs of Installer that it should SHOW STOPPER! HOLIDAY CANCEL IT AND FIX.  because Hey where will they go?

    Where will I go, CS6 already paid and we are done with Adobe and down, comes the milk cow subscription giant... because the developers of Installer prevented us to use the tools, you have created that are very good, if I do not keep out them for updating a utility that manages them.

    have it installed.

    Didn't have to uninstall all the software this time...

    And I got a clue where Adobe might have problems.  I think they have an old library that broke the code to access the profiles in Windows.

    A run vacuuming for cloud CS6 & Creative.

    It lists all the CS6 then CC Apps including CC Desktop... I chose this, but got a:

    Message "has been cleaned with errors."

    GREAT... even the vacuum is broken!

    But unlike other tools tells me where the LOG file is... THE EXCEPTION.

    Instead of c:\Users\Tim.Domain\... rest of the path where it was

    The error lists c:\Users\Tim~1~DOM\... rest of the path.

    Well \Tim~1~DOM is a left on file from a previous profile... which is actually almost empty.  Still error Adobe not used the right profile in error.

    So imagine that some other calls also use profile calls exploded. take correct simular profies vs...  INSTALLER BROKE!

    Once the vacuum has been run for that Office CC... Then, I was able to download and install the latest version of Adobe.

    Code that extracts the wrong profile path will cause problems...

  • Installer of Palm desktop CC, initializes, downloads and closes unexpectedly on a Mac with Yosemite

    Today was invited to update the CC. The update did not work. After several attempts, including using the cleaning tool, now I can't clean reinstall it. CC desktop Setup begins, initialize, downloads and shut up in an unexpected way. Help, please

    I tried by CAT hollow Adobe support and they guided me to remove the folders OOBE, AAMupdater and Adobe Application Manager in General and user-specific libraries. Just to make sure he wanted to get the tool Adobe Creative cloud cleaner completely remove CC. After that, I was able to reinstall CC, connect and install the new version of Lightroom and Photoshop. This solves the problem.

  • Separate installs Palm desktop for Palm M505 and its applications, Palm Treo 680 and its applications on the same computer in Windows XP?

    Hello:

    I'm doing a work around. I have a Palm M505 with a fantastic keyboard that connects to it. This allows me to write documents in a very portable way. The Treo 680 has never been the equivalent external keyboard, really full compatible with it rendering. So, I want to create documents on the M505 but otherwise use especially the Treo 680.

    That's the problem. When I tried to synchronize two devices for my Palm Desktop version 4.1.2 for Windows XP, it did not work. HotSync to synchronize applications that do not work on the M505. In addition, versions of Documents to Go are very different (5.x versus 8.x).

    I have a separate installation of Palm Desktop for each device, so I can have a nice desktop environment for each launching them separately. But the Palm Desktop installation "Wizard" stops and does not give me the opportunity to do a separate install of funds.

    Any ideas other than the purchase of an ultra compact laptop and drop this scheme kludgy? For example, if I had to copy the installed files in files from one directory to another, this work or would would he not put in place in the registry?

    Thank you!

    Very well. Stubbornness is paying off! I could beam documents between my Palm M505 and Treo 680, avoiding the need of complicated synchronization of the two Palms for my laptop. I was also able to transmit documents of both palms to my laptop Dell Inspiron M300, running Windows XP Pro.

    When transferring between Palm devices, the results were better. In the M505, Documents to Go version 5,004 does not translate documents in Microsoft Word format, but in something he calls Word to Go. The Treo has DTG version 8.003, which is able to read files in Word format Go and save Microsoft Word for Windows format natively.

    However, even when transferring a word in the document (old format) Go directly on my Windows XP computer desktop, he gave me a document that I could open, with the text that I would be entered following a bunch of Word characters obviously did not understand. If I add the file from my office to the most recent Documents to Go version on my laptop, I would expect that it it mean in a Word file when it sync for the Treo, but who were not on trial. In both cases, beaming between devices Palm is the simplest solution and has completely solved the problem.

    For readers who are interested, that I so stubbornly tried to solve this problem because I am a typist quick touch. My old Palm M505 plugs directly into a Portable Palm both wonderful, old keyboard which is full size. Because it is a wired connection, I can type fast. This old keyboard compresses in the same footprint folded as some new keyboards external foldover. Even though much more bigger by folding it together in an accordion - like fashion, with record four flat surfaces. The design of this keyboard is now in some keyboards sold by the IGo Corporation (their former name for it was Sierra Stowaway Bluetooth keyboard). But they were unable to find a way to handshake their Bluetooth with the strange configuration Bluetooth in the Treo 680. Why from the library different Bluetooth in the Treo 680 Palm other Treo is a mystery to me, but enough of this tangent. Some interested by this workaround can be curious for the same reasons.

  • Cool app for Tungsten T3 & Palm Desktop?

    I have an old Tungsten T3 which serves me well.  Recently I started to use the expenses application (v. 4.5.1P) that comes with the Palm OS (v.5.2.1).

    I noticed there was no application fees on the Palm Desktop, which I'm running under Windows XP SP2.  So I re-downloaded the latest version of Palm Desktop of T3: version 4.1.4e.  This is the latest version that the palmOne Web site says is available for Windows XP and T3.

    "" "If I click on Palm Desktop' help ' on Palm Desktop" Version "General, I see, in the component files,"Expcn20.dll (not found).  I guess this .dll is the application of fees.

    On another thread posted, followed by office expenses missing 4.1.4, I see that the application of fees exist for Palm Desktop v. 4.2.  But the palmOne site Web told me that the most recent version for my T3 and Windows XP was v. 4.1.4e.

    Issues related to the:

    • Does anyone has tested Palm Desktop v. 4.2 on the Tungsten T3?
    • What's the application of fees available on the Palm Desktop 4.1.4e v. CD-ROM version?  (which I did not)
    • Is it possible to somehow download Expcn20.dll and add it to the installation of Palm Desktop 4.1.4e v.?
    • Any other suggestions?  (not including "buy a new pocket computer", because I'm a poor student )

    Palm Desktop which is available for free download from the site of Support of Palm, version 4.1.4e, is a generic version in that it is usable for a variety of devices, but has not all desktop applications (costs, media, etc.).  This is because not all laptop models come with all of these applications, and the downloadable version is really intended to be a safety net for the basic clock only.

    For the application of charges for your office, you need to use the original installation disc for your device.

  • Palm Desktop 6.2 crash.

    I recently moved from a desktop Dell (windows XP) with Palm Desktop 4.1.4 for my Palm Tungsten E2.  I had a desktop software and Pocket PC Palm since before 2000 (back then on Mac) and so I have a lot of information of calendar and contact I desperately need to consult and maintain and never had any problem with handheld computers, desktop computers, or synchronization.

    My new laptop is a HP G61, with Athlon II dual-core M300 2.0 ghz running on Windows 7 (64-bit), which until now has been a dream to use.

    My first installation of Palm Desktop 6.2 on/in respect of 3 January.  He's okay, and then I went to synchronize with my handheld via bluetooth (which a lot of features were again removed from this new version).  For the next few days all was well with the basics but 2 modules does more (DocsToGo and Worlmate).  Then I start the desktop computer on Friday morning (Jan 8) and there was no calendar, address book, memo, ToDo, etc...  The only thing the desktop software offered me was Media (said missing 2 files to work correctly) and install it.

    I tried to reinstall it, and then I removed (using uninstaller) and re-installed, then I uninstalled and deleted the folders/files with Palm in it and re-installed.  Always alone gives me these 2 icons and menu Options gives me no choice at startup either.

    What can I do to get a Palm Desktop to work on my new laptop AND sync with my handheld?  Please help me.

    Right click on the new icon go to compatibility and check the run as admin. Open Palm Desktop of this icon, then see if you see the other Palm Desktop application.

  • 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.

  • Palm Desktop 6.2.2 on Win8.1 synchronization but only showing no data

    I'm so happy to have found this forum.  I didn't know there was so much love for the old Palm devices.  I started with a Palm V and worked my way up to a Tungsten T & palm Desktop 4.1.4 on WInXP and everything was so good that I resisted to move away from Palm Desktop, as it is just what I need.  But I just bought a new Win8.1 PC and am having a few problems that I hope someone here can help with.

    I have been through help here on the installation of Palm Desktop 6.2.2 and win8 driver and installation has been very good and I couldn't hotsync via USB without apparent problems, except that Palm Desktop does not display any of my palm data!

    When I ran hotsync (from cradle palm button) it asks a user name.  My Tungsten T was already used on my XP PC and was full of data.  If I entered the username of tungsten and hotsync continued.  It took a few minutes or so (as would be expected) and once finished he said that everything was ok.  I checked the logand Hotsync, it was confirmed that everything was synced properly - but when I open Palm Desktop there is no displayed data.

    I then checked the data files in ...documents\Palm OS Desktop\... and addresses and calendar files are present and full of my data.  I've even opened in Notepad and could easily see loads of text ascii among all of the "junk" characters, so it seems that the synchronization process has worked correctly, but none of my Tungsten is displayed in Palm Desktop.

    I then added an event on the agenda in Palm Desktop and another event the same day in tungsten.  I then did an another hotsync.  It was reported as a success, but the event of tungsten is not in the office, although the same office appeared on the tungsten.  If the synchronization process seems to work only one way!

    I have had it before and would appreciate any help.

    OK, try to use the "Palm Hotsync Setup" program found on this page.

    Since you're using an old T | T, maybe that's the answer.

    There is a guide available on this site for the migration of data from Palm OS Android, if you are interested.  I made this jump years ago when webOS was finished.  You can find it on their homepage.

  • Fees on Palm Desktop, but not on the Palm Centro

    I just changed a Tungsten E2 to a Centro 685. Tungsten has Palm OS v5.40; the Centro has v5.49. Palm Desktop (running Windows XP Home SP3) uses v6.2 for awhile. The Office's expenditure as well as the Date, address, Memo, etc., and I had no trouble to enter things in charge on the tungsten and sync'ing them on the desktop. The transfer went well except that the Centro is not fresh. The HotSync log claims Sync load properly, but as I can't find the app on the Centro, I don't see the expense records.

    What Miss me? Costs not included in the v5.49 or on Centros? I saw the notes saying that recent versions of Office do not include fees; If he pulled in the v6.2 on the desktop when I updated from a previous version, but is not really supposed to be there after v5.40? Is there a way to get the app on the Centro? I can keep records of expense in the notes if I have or can install a manager of third-party charges, but I'm curious to know why I can use application on the desktop but not on the Centro Palm expenses.

    Thank you. Suggestions gratefully appreciated-

    Your proposal is correct - Palm eliminated the application of fees there is Palm Desktop and Palm OS versions.

    It may seem an older version of Palm Desktop on your computer because of its old facility.

  • I can no longer install Palm Desktop on a reformatted computer.

    Since I reformatted my computer and he patched all the way to the top, I can install is no longer the Palm Desktop software.  I put the disc in and it hangs to the installation dialog box and slows down my whole computer.  So I go up the Task Manager and my CPU is boosted to 100% and iDriver.exe is the process hogging the CPU eating hundreds of megs of memory.  Not only that, but there are several instances of iDriver.exe just behind with one instance of iDriverT.exe.  Also, there are several instances of msiexec.exe as well.  Once I have kill the first instance of iDriver.exe stops installation of Palm Desktop.  I even downloaded the latest version of verizon on this site and I'm having the same problem.

    All solutions?

    The fixed.  My user profile has been slightly altered possibly by data that I restored my profile after reformatting.  The restored data likely contained some partial data from the previous Palm installation causing incompatibilities.

    I found the source of the problem when I installed the program as another account with privileges administrator and installation that has happened without a hitch.  So I moved my docs on another drive and blew my profile in hell and recorded again.  When my profile has been recreated, I ran the Palm software installation and installed normally.

    Thanks for your help.
