  Help, please

  I backed up my old files from my Palm programs out of my old computer database

  (The hard disk and the computer went wrong, and then he died.)

  Question: which directories and where do I copy the old data, so that I can hotsync?

  I hotsynced once, but I do not see programs in Hotsynce led screen, where

  you select handheld to crush desktop or synchronize files.

  Question: In the screen sheath, which directory it seeks for programs?

  I have a Sony Clie PEG-SJ22 Palm Desktop v4.1, Mgr Hotsync 4.1.0.

  I spent 4 days on re - install the palm software, to solve the problem of usb hotsync.

  I'm finally able to hotsync, thanks to previous assignments and hours of re - install different versions

  the palm software.

  Any help on the issues, would be appreciated.

  Thank you.

  Your data directory will usually be c > program files > palm > [user folder, usually an abbreviated version of your hotsyncid]

  Are they missing conduits for third-party applications?  If so you will need to track down and reinstall them... most applications that have a duct must run a desktop installation routine to install the duct.

• Where the new Palm Desktop Store files?

  I imported all my files from my old computer with Windows XP and Palm Desktop version 4. XX to my new computer with Windows Vista and Palm Desktop version 6. XX.

  I imported the where I had recorded the on my windows 'desktop' (not the Palm Desktop - a bit "confused, but you know what I mean").  Once imported, I saved the menu 'save' in the Palm, and now I want to know the directory in which the Palm Desktop saved files.  Are they stored in a different directory than where they were imported, for example, Palm saves files imported into an auxiliary file in the folder "Documents" of Windows, or to an auxiliary file in the Windows ' programs' folder under ' Palm /...?  Hope I'm making sense.  I want that all secure, saved in the correct before you start directory to delete the files that I think I need is no longer.

  Hello..  If you imported the Palm desktop and data show there so it's in the correct folders.  The import process creates this data file, calendar/Agenda on this issue, etc.  If you look at c:\my documents\palm os desktop\user name of the folder, you will find all the data folders with an .mdb file that is the data file.

  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.

• Old Palm Vx, synchronization with Palm Desktop

  Hello everyone.

  I try an old Palm Vx synchronization with Palm Desktop. But the Hotsync does not work as expected. After press the SYNCHRONIZATION button in the cradle the process starts with databases "Restore", then with the synchronization.

  When the process is finished the Palm VX. displays a RESTART Message. After that I do this restart I can not use my Palm more. The Palm is displaying the 'settings', but I don't know why. I can not type of the any of buttons, for example the Home button and looks like the Graffiti-Pad is unresolved. I only can do, it's only a hard reset with lost all data. After that, I do a hotsync and the game begins with RESTART and displaying the "settings."

  Can someone help me with this problem? What I am doing wrong?

  Thank you very much. Jens.

  The problem is solved. I installed ReDigi. This little program displays the calibration screen after each reboot hot so I could re - calibrate the digitizer and the Palm works for me once again.

  Thank you very much. Jens.

• 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.

• 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.

• 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.

• 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!

  Janko

  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.

  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.

• Vista and palm Desktop

  I had my Tungsten E2 for several months. BONES of my old computers is XP.  Palm Desktop was working fine. No problems.  I recently got a new computer which of ' OS is Vista. When I got the new computer, I downloaded the 6.2 Palm Desktop version.  Had no problems with the process of HotCync, all the data was there and correct. My new computer is 32 - bit, not 64-bit that is causing so many problems.  I must also stress that I do not use my PDA as you would in the company.  This is my Notepad, my contacts, calendar, etc.  I buy Splash Wallet - I've used since I got my T - E2. I can't connect to the internet, WI - FI or anything like that.  As I said, this is my electronic "Notepad." I do not use Outlook, I use the Contact, calendar module, etc. which are delivered in Palm Desktop. Yesterday, I decided to HotCync to my computer to back up the info on my PDA.  When I open Palm Desktop, only modules there were: media and Splash Wallet modules. My contacts, calendar, tasks, Notepad, etc were not there. I did a repair on the desk of the downloaded installation program, but they were not there yet. On my PDA, he said they were all supported up to, but where? When opening Palm Desktop would give me an info box that says I had to lower the load on the web: WMP/Direct X and Apple Quick Time.  Why do I need now and why not before? They were included in the Palm Desktop draft.exe? My PDA works fine and all the info is there and correct.

  Does anyone else have this problem?  The only thing I can think to do now is to re - install Palm Desktop.  Once the repair ran through the download of the installation, Splash Wallet components were not in the Palm Dektop as before.  I can't really understand what is happening.  I guess it has something to do with Vista, but I don't know what, why, or what to do to fix!  HELP, PLEASE!

  I will answer your questions in RED.

  I tried to follow your instructions.  The first problem I encountered was in remove C:\Program Files\Palm.  There are about 20 files and 1 folder that I can't get deleted - PhotoDesktop corresponds to the folder and the files start with AlarmApp_PSI and down to UserData.dll.  I've tried everything, and I am the administrator on my computer. But that does not make a difference to the computer. You must remove the entire Palm folder only. You go to programs and features in the control panel and try to uninstall Palm desktop here? If the files delete, then go to the next step, I hope that these files will not affect install it or be replaced.

  I was able to get the C:\Users\[Vista username] deleted \appdata\local\virtualstore\Program Files\Palm. This C:\Users\[Vista Login Name folder] \appdata has a lot of other things in it - other than the stuff of Palm.  Stuff like Adobe, Google, Microsoft, etc.  Should I really delete this sort of thing? No, you should only remove the Palm folder.

  I haven't started on the registry deletions yet.  I thought I should get some tips on things above first.  I copied all the data and "stored" on my desktop.  I don't know what to do about the above.   I don't have an installation CD. I had to download Palm Desktop on the site.  Is that going to make a difference?  No, make sure that the version you download is for your device on Vista. You already said that you have downloaded Palm Desktop 6.2, that should be ok.

  Advice, please.  Thanks for the help so far.
