items lost during upgrade to Palm Desktop 6.2.2

Hello

Just bought a Palm Pre, unlocked, a beauty.  Wanted to move the items from my Palm Desktop to the FRONT.  During the upgrade from my old, old Desktop 4.0.4 for Desktop 6.2.2 I lost all contacts, calendar etc events.  The datebook.dat file is there, but since my old Palm Treo broke down entirely (Palm could not repair it) I could not synchronize the installation of the new software.

The question is: How can I move my items the address.dat, dateboook.dat etc. for the new version of office.

Thanks muchly for all the good advice!

You cannot use these data files to the point 6.2.

6.2 has a format of different file than previous versions and don't recognize these files.

What I would say, it is to copy your username folder in c-program files-Palm.

Paste this folder on the Windows desktop. With the help of delete Palm desktop 6.2 Control Panel-Add/Remove programs. Re-install Palm desktop that you had previously installed. Pick up the user name folder in the folder on the drive c. open palm desktop palm and see if your data is there.

If this is the case, export your data from backup. Here is a procedure for this.

The best way to protect your data is to export the data in each category of Palm Desktop in a separate folder on your PC.

Create a new folder on your PC somewhere that suits. Name it something like Palm Desktop data. Click on the link below and follow the instructions on this page for the export procedure.

http://www.Palm.com/cgi-bin/cso_kbURL.cgi?id=28734

Make sure you only select everything for the beach in the export window.

With the data stored in the created folder, make a copy of this file and save it on a USB key, cd - rw or external hard drive.

Whenever you change in Palm Desktop, export the data that has been changed in this file and save again to external media.

With this process you can always import the data in Palm Desktop, whenever you have a problem with the data in Palm Desktop, or if your computer/hard drive/device crash.

After you have your data backed up, install Palm desktop 6.2 and if data do not migrate to 6.2, use the import function in Palm desktop.

For reference purposes, click the following link to the support page for your device on the kb.palm.com Web page.

  • Transferred to Palm Desktop for Palm Pre event calendar are incorrect

    My old phone, a Center, has been synchronized using Palm Desktop 6.2.1 on Vista. I used the data migration tool, and all my data transferred to my Palm Pre. (Just directly Palm Desktop > Palm Pre).

    The only problem is that a lot of my events are not on the correct days (ex: an event in Palm Desktop comes Sunday, now appears on my Palm Pre Monday).

    I don't have the time to sort out again all my calendar events since this is the case of random events.

    Other complaints that I have on the calendar, it's that the birthdays of my contacts do not appear as events, even those in Agenda facebook. In addition, it would be nice to be able to classify the events and color coding in the calendar.

    For transfers of schedule of the Palm Desktop, upgrading your Palm Desktop version 6.2.2 (rather than just the 6.2 shown in the migration instructions) will prevent specific annual date all day events, such as birthdays and other events, to appear on the wrong day.

    He let still one day of the week of the annual events, like Thanksgiving, the demand for each 1 month instead of every 12 months.  These must be set manually on the meadow.

  • 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!

  • Upgrade Plam Desktop app for Palm Desktop by ACCESS

    Have tried to move from Palm Desktop on Vista (Tungsten T) again Palm Desktop by ACCESS that came with a new Centro, I get the message "File in use" during the installation process.  The message is this: the following applications use files should be updated by this Setup. Close the application and click Retry to continue - Windows Explorer (process Id: 1716).  1468, yesterday.

    Explorer does not at least visibly.  Yesterday, I ignored this process and passed, but something seems to have gone wrong.  I was not able to sync.  Information about Palm Desktop was missing.

    From TT to Centro, I probably have to give up 3rd party applications, but move all the other data (contacts, calendar, Memo, etc.) for Centro.  The tech guy that I was talking last night could not help me and told me to call someone who is familiar with the Palm.  Someone at - he meets a similar problem?

    Yes, you will need to update the Docs To Go to 10 or save the files in 2003 for use on the Centro with the current version of the DTG.

    Regarding the 3rd party app, the Centro is a newer and improved performance compared to the T.

    The Centro has 4 times the internal memory at T has.

    If you wish, you can first try to install it on the map and see if there are performance problems. If this isn't the case, then stay on the map. If it seems slow, install in the main memory of Centro.

  • Z22 all data lost palm desktop Memo / can not recover

    Hello

    When I opened my z22 office program I got an error message saying roughly memo cannot be opened, it may have saved a '.dat' file but I can't find anything.

    None of my memos exist on the desktop anymore, thankfully, they remain on the z22 because it was not plugged in.

    I did nothing different than usual, I have no hotsync etc..

    I use firefox, windows vista home basic sp2 32-bit T1500.

    I tried to open the Palm as an administrator, but it changed nothing.

    Thank you

    Have you tried restarting the computer?

    When a computer malfunctions, there is always a chance that something might go wrong!  I can't guarantee anything across your screen...

    You could try the option "repair" in Palm Desktop.  Go to Tools/Options/tools and use the check now button to see if it can repair damaged databases.

    If it were my PDA, I'll try what I suggested.  If you have another Palm OS device handy, try beaming the data to the other device as a backup before you attempt a HotSync.   Don't forget to put the duct as I mentioned - "Pocket replaces Desktop" for the data you want to transfer.  Do not click the box for "Set as default" - you want this happen only once as a test.

    I copied my files and still nothing.  I reinstalled Palm Desktop and now the memos are still missing.

    I don't have the installation path for the instance of WIndows 7 is c:\pgm files x86\Palm and also noted information has been written for C:\users\me\OneDrive\MyDesktop\Palm OS Desktop

    Memopad.mdb.bak = 100 KB

    Is there another tool that I can use to open these categories memopad and pads?

    Really need help,

    The installation directory is strange - I agree that could be the source of the problem.

    On the laptop ready Win8.1, I have the HP (for my participation in the Forums), the directory is:

    C:\Users\ < I > \Documents\PalmOS Desktop

    I backup the user data, uninstall Palm Desktop, and then reinstall and pay attention to where she has choices.

    A clean uninstallation may be necessary:

    These instructions are for Vista, but should work for Win7.

    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 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 (Palm XT)

    After years of worry-free service use, quite suddenly my Palm Desktop (6.2.2) lost all the usual menu items to the bottom of the left column - except media and install it. It starts in the media and I am totally unable to get to my Contacts, memos etc.

    I have restored my latest backup (Saturday) to no effect and removed and reinstalled the Office - the crazy thing is that when I synced the reinstallation of Office ALL the things missing (according to the synchronization log) were sync'd successfully.

    Someone has an idea all wa\y back view of my items menu or what might have happened?

    It drives me crazy because all my contacts are currently one-get-at-able!

    What OS is on your computer?

    Try right click on the shortcut for Palm Desktop and choose 'Run as administrator'.

    If you are using Win7, try to turn off User Account Control (UAC).  You will find this setting here:

  • Update Palm 600 Palm desktop to Centro Palm desktop fails

    I have an old Palm 600 and recently upgraded to a Palm Centro. When you install the new Centro Palm software, I wonder if I want to upgrade the desktop software 600 alumni. My answer is Yes. The upgrade is displayed at the end OK, but when I go to the program files list, Palm icons do not include the Palm Desktop software. It seems that the upgrade has actually failed and wiped out the old desktop software without having to install the new. I confirmed this by trying to synchronize the Centro, and it fails to connect. Then I try to install the desktop software Centro directly fom the CD icon (the intro screen does not include the installation option). I installed the Office of Centro very well, but none of the old Palm 600 data is postponed.

    How can I solve this problem and get a good upgrade?

    In the meantime, I have with beams in contact data and a memo on and some applications, but I am not able to beam of calendar information. I lost also some info as Favorites in contacts.

    Thank you. I have that will soon give a try. I also discovered that I could export the old data from the Office of Palm 600 and import it into the Office by Centro as another enough work around.

  • Palm desktop version &amp; clarification driver

    Hello

    I have a unlocked version of Palm Treo 680 not through any mobile service provider (that I just love, use 7 years now! and will continue to use it until it dies - if any company sells this device once again, I will buy it again!)  It's good I think it is even though I have an iphone and android also phone that are more for the consumption of information & media. Applications of PIM 680's Treo and taking notes, the keyboard have no parallel).

    With many changes in the PC world, I intend to update my PC but it takes to only get one that can run Palm Desktop. I've been through a number of messages in the forum and am a bit confused.  There are some different Palm Desktop version (Office 6 and 4.2 desktop and desktop 4.1.4 and I remember reading this forum for a long time that return this worm 4.2 is better than 6 worm) and different drivers (32 bit vs 64 bit those provided by Aceeca). In addition, I read in the download page of office of Palm Palm Desktop is not compatible with computers of several base units, IE, I assume that it refers to dual-core, quad-core including the basic series processors and new processors Atom Baytrail.

    If you would be grateful if we could fill the table below next to each type of OS, which is the version of office and keep as a reference for everyone so that when upgrading from their computers, they can have that in mind:

    Bits processor Palm pilot Desktop operating system

    --------------------         ----                -----------                              ----------------                         --------

    Win 32 8 core

    Win 32 8 multi-hearts

    Win 64 8 core

    Win 8 64 multi-hearts

    I imagine that the different flavors of each operating system (e.g., home, premium etc.) have no importance have not created separate for them lines.  If they import, please add.

    Finally, I believe that, in many cases, 2 or 3 versions of Palm Desktop can run (IE ver 4.2, 4.1.4 6 Worm worm), it would be good if below, include just the advantages and disadvantages of each:

    Palm Desktop version 4.2

    Palm Desktop version 4.1.4

    Thanks in advance to the experts, and I hope this info can be useful to many people now and in the future

    Concerning

    With the advent of Vista, quick setup has stopped working.  That's why Palm hired a company to write a new version of Palm Desktop which is the option.

    Thus, Palm Desktop 6.2.2 was born.

    It has its share of bugs so.  Less customizable to 4.x, no Docs to go play back and tends to erase data if cut you your computer with the program still running!

    There are solutions to application installation.  I remember a program called 'My install' you place on an SD card.  Any file that you want to install can be copied in the folder myinstall on the map (using any inexpensive card reader connected to your computer), and then you run the program.  It will install everything what it finds in the folder as would Quick Install.

    Some simple applications can only be copied to the card and run.

  • Export from Palm Desktop calendar to .dba archive

    I have data for agenda 2003 to date on my Palm Desktop v6.2.  I would like to archive everything before 01/01/14 by exporting the data in an archive *.dba and then delete the data from Palm Desktop.  The export dialog says that I can choose to archive the items I selected, but does not say how to choose.  I want to select a range of dates - more precisely, 1/1/03-12/31/13.  Someone knows how to do this?

    The Export of Palm Desktop feature, you cannot selectively archive a specific range of dates of the calendar events.  There is a function of the Purge, but he will serve only to items older than a month, not a selectable date.

    One thing you could do, which requires a pocket computer, is to use an application of Pocket called Agenda 6 jointly with a freeware SD card backup utility called NVBackup for more security.  NVBackup lets you back up the entire database because there is at all times on the handheld and allows you to make backup sets so much data that your SD card will hold (max size 1 GB, regular SD card).  And agenda 6 allows you to delete data from calendar before the date.  Then...

    • Export your entire calendar on your desktop.  It would not be limited at all before 01/01/14, but it would preserve everything.
    • Buy and install DateBook 6 of www.pimlicosoftware.com (it is not freeware).
    • Download and install NVBackup.  Run NVBackup on the handheld to create a full backup on a SD card.
    • Then use Schedule 6 to remove the calendar data before 01/01/14.
    • Change the calendar (or calendar) led in Palm Desktop to handheld overrides Desktop.
    • HotSync the handheld to the desktop calendar data.  Palm Desktop calendar data should show then only events for 01/01/14 forwards, but historical data would have been preserved in the file exported as well as on the SD card and you can restore it at any time.

    I hope this helps.
