• Cannot transfer photos from the Treo 680 for PC

  First of all, I bought this phone and he didn't get any software CD provided whatsoever. I downloaded the software from Palm.Com HotSync and after reading all the horror stories that it does not include a way to transfer pictures or other objects generated from the smart phone without this software, I'm about to pull out my hair!

  There must be another way that e-mail each photo of the photo to one email account to retrieve those pictures. I can't work when I try to attach a photo and send it to an email address is valid. I always get this error message:

  VersaMail: "the connection has been made, but the SMTP server is not respoding." I have check the setting for the SMTP Protocol and they are valid and only happens when you attach a file to a message.

  Is there any 3rd party software for the Palm Treo 680, that will allow me to transfer photos (jpg) from my phone on my computer?

  Thanks for looking at my problem.

  Hello!

  Palm Desktop Version 6 has the ability of multimedia synchronization.  As long as you are using Windows XP SP2 or Windows Vista, you can use this version of Palm Desktop. Simply choose the Centro for your device to get this version.  The trade will be that colors in the calendar, the themes and Versamail sync encoding are not supported in this version.

• Phone button does not return to the screen of the phone on the Treo 680

  I had a Treo 680 for the past two years. Software is listed as Treo680 - 2.11 - ATT, which I think refers to the update that came out a year ago. But the other day, the phone button (left) brings me to the Favorites screen instead of the phone's screen. I can't understand what I did, assuming that I did anything to make that happen or how do go back. When I check the personal touches, preferences, it lists the phone to phone button, and you can not choose something different.

  Any ideas?

  OaklandRobb,

  Are you sync'ing the new device the same username in Palm Desktop as an older device?
  If you are, this will cause problems on the new device. When you synchronize the device, it records the device settings, applications, 3rd party, preferences, etc. in the backup folder in the folder on the PC username. When you synchronize the new device it copies the content of the backup for the old device folder in the new device. This will cause corruption in the settings of the new device, which causes erratic behavior of the new device.

  Here are the instructions for the hard reset and rename the backup file procedure. This procedure will not be re - install any 3rd party applications. You will need to re - install these applications. If you do not have the applications. on your PC for re-setup, you can take the apps. Copy the renamed backup folder, those in the newly named backup folder. When you synchronize applications will be installed. on the Treo.

  Looks like you may need to reset your device and rename your backup folder. Go to http://www.palm.com/cgi-bin/cso_kbURL.cgi?ID=887 and follow the directions to do a hard reset. Then before of you hotsync your data back you will need to rename your backup folder, to do than go here.

  XP
  C:\Program files\palm or palm one\ [hotsync username]------and rename your backup
  file Backup.Old

  Vista
  Start--> documents\Palm OS Desktop\ [hotsync username]------and rename your backup
  file Backup.Old

  Then hotsync from your current name of hotsync and all your contacts, calendar,
  tasks and memos coming back.

  Show the file extensions for XP or Vista

  XP
  If you cannot view the extensions of file on your PC I would you open a
  folder, go to Tools--> Folder Options--> View (tab) and under Show hidden
  files and folders to uncheck Hide extensions of known file types.

  Vista
  Open control Panel, go to--> View (tab) and under show hidden folder Options
  files and folders to uncheck Hide extensions of known file types.

• Cannot access internet on the treo 680 unlocked

  It is an unlocked phone that I use on different sim cards providers in the United Kingdom and Malta. However when I try and connect to internet on my sim Vodafone Malta, the phone is only showing the provider network as Orange and will not change to something else. When I try to connect I get the following error message

  Incomplete set up error. Please check your network settings.   Ox121A

  Anyone have a solution please

  You should consult your carrier or provider for that matter.

  looks like there's something to do with the type of data to what services to which you subscribe.

• Palm hiding information about the Treo 680 icompatibility with Exchange 2007.

  Treo 680 does not work with Exchange 2007.  Question in a number of discussions in various forums and Palm does not offer a solution.  Palm´s chat live cannot help either.  SSL is not used if the problem is not related to the certificates.  If there is no solution, save us time and advising customers of the problem.

• Why my monitor decided to take 10 minutes or more to come to life after the pc turns on but works very well when it comes to life?

  Can someone explain and or offer a solution to this problem with my Windows XP Home Edition SP3 running on Compaq Presario AMD Athlon 64 Processor.
  The monitor displays briefly when the lit after turning on the pc but apparently goes "dead" for about 10 minutes then comes to life.

  Borrow a monitor from another computer and connect this monitor borrowed from yours, put your monitor on the computer that you have borrowed from the monitor.  That should tell you where the problem is quite quickly.  I bet that your monitor is dying and needs to be replaced, this test which will confirm.

• On the treo 680 power settings

  Is it possible to disable the display time setting, but still be able to lock the phone to put in your pocket. I'm used to a nokia where a simple lock prevents accidental buttons to press. I know that I can increase the time for the screen stays on, but not how you can lock the phone. I now seems a bit odd, but I'm tired of the screen goes blank when I do something and forget to press a button to keep assets - his estates to be a real pain

  You want to have the backlight remains permanently? It is not possible using the native settings on board.

  If you want to change the backlight settings, you can do it in the Prefs and power. You can change the settings for the automatic for a time to predetrmined from 15 seconds to 3 minutes. You can change the backlight settings while you are on a call in the same screen.

  To activate the keypad lock prevent accidental keys, in the general in prefs section there is a selection for locking of the keyboard. Select this option and set the locking of the keyboard for your preferences.

• 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.

  This is the page you got the download from?

  I see that there is no serial number in your screen shot, which is not normal.

  You can try a hard reset to fix the problem. The hard reset will erase all data on the device. Make sure that synchronize you with PC to back up your data.

• HP EliteBook 850 G3: HP EliteBook 850 G3: its problems after the update of Windows 10 anniversary

  Hi people!

  After the update of Windows 10 birthday I have problems with my sound card. There are two sound cards listed by Device Manager. The first is "Conexant Audio of ISST" and the second "Intel High Definition Audio". I know not weather it was the case before the update. I just recognized it after the update when I had sound problems.

  In any case, on a sound start works on the other boot it does not work. It seems that Windows chooses the sound card, every time when it starts. Sometimes it takes the bad sound card.

  I tried to uninstall maps its and their resettlement. On the HP site, there is a driver for the Conexant map bot no driver for Intel High Definition Audio card. 10 Windows itself is not find a driver for this sound card. I also tried to reinstall the other drivers, chipset drivers for example. But unfortunately it did not help. I also tried to disable the Intel High Definition Audio, but also without success.

  What else can I try? I don't want to reinstall Windows. There must be a solution without this. Any ideas? Here's a screenshot of my device manager, perhaps it helps:

  

  If you need more information, please let me know.

  Best regards

  Ty

  I just tried this driver and I still have sound after 6 resets.

• Export of text messages SMS for Treo 680

  What options are available to export the SMS text messages and call logs from the Treo 680?  I need to create hard copies for evedence in a court case. I have Palm Desktop on Mac OS X backup files.

  I searched through the guide of Palm, but no discussion on SMS data extraction.  I understand that sms messages are in the file "Database.pdb Messages" and the call log is 'PhoneCallDB.pdb', question is how to extract the records.

• Z400 disks with EFI partition not mounting after the Windows 7 Pro upgrade

  HP z400: after a repair/upgrade to sp1 of Windows 7 Pro (64), no matter what external disk with an EFI partition is not installed.  Player will be present in the BIOS and the management of drive, but without a letter. Cannot assign a drive letter.  All other discs mount correctly.  Disks with EFI partition will mount on other PCs.  All the drivers seem to be current and fuctional.

  I thought about it... after two weeks of puzzle, I finally found the cause.

  I run MacDrive 8 so I can play discs with HFS + formatting.  This program should be completely uninstalled and reinstalled after the upgrade.  I had turned it off before the upgrade, but it takes more than that.  Everything works now as expected.

  But wouldn't be INCE if Windows reads discs mac natively?
