• Google Contacts do not appear to sync or not all download on my Palm Pre contacts

  UPDATE (with solution):

  @darqmatter noted:

  No amount of purging of contacts has worked for me. I had to remove all instances of contacts with special characters in names (I had 3 symbol #). After that, and 10 minutes from time to analyze contacts, number of contacts read the same thing as "My Contacts" on Google. See also: http://forums.palm.com/t5/webOS-Software/Google-sync-partial/m-p/259891/highlight/false

  This was confirmed by @spouse1775: SOLVED! I searched my google contacts for #, & and *.

  It seems that synergy has a problem with the contacts that contain characters such as #, & and *. I don't know that there are others. I don't know if it is only in the name field or other fields in a contact as well, but it is a start.

  Hello Palm, this is a bug. This must be fixed. Contacts should be able to contain these characters.

  ORIGINAL MESSAGE:

  I struggled with this for hours. The new information that I added to a contact on my Palm Pre (my default Google account setup program) do not seem to update my Google matching online contacts. Try to solve the problem, I've completely wiped out my phone and started around. When my account completely downloaded the Google contacts to my pre, I noticed that many of the contacts came down. Whenever I deleted and added the Google account, the same number of contacts came down, always less than the total amount.

  After reading a few posts, I found that others understand that spurious characters in a Google contact cause synchronization problems. So, I exported my Google contacts in Outlook CSV files so Google CSV and imported into a blank Google account. Add each of the new Google account on my Pre came back with a number different contacts downloaded, but always lower total online.

  Finally, I figured out that export a vCard out of Google Contacts "cleaned" information. When I exported all of my Google Contacts vCard file and imported into a blank Google account, Google downloaded on my pre perfectly all the contacts in this new account and synchronization now seems to work again.

  NOTE: the vCard DO NOT maintain the designation of Group contact Google. You need to export a vCard by group and import them into Google by specifying the group in which you want to import the contacts.

  I hope this helps. No need to erase your phone or delete your backup profile.

  It worked for me:

  Steps to follow:

  1. remove your Google contacts from your Palm Pre app account

  2. sign in to your Google account and access Contacts

  3 export contacts by choosing "Who do you want to export?" and select "vCard file" for "what export format?

  4. save a file of all contacts or a file by group

  5 remove all contacts in your Google account online

  6 import the vCard in your Google account files, assign to the Group during the import phase, if applicable

  7. Add your Google account as an account in the contacts application on your Palm Pre

  No amount of purging of contacts has worked for me. I had to remove all instances of contacts with special characters in names (I had 3 symbol #). After that, and 10 minutes from time to analyze contacts, number of contacts read the same thing as "My Contacts" on Google.

• Palm pre - name account profile

  I've updated my account name to palm profile via the section account management on the palm Web site, it has also changed under the backup application on the pre.  But when I'm in contacts > preferences & accounts. It still shows the old name of the Palm profile account.  Any way to have this update to the new name?

• New contact on Palm Pre 2, not Gmail Contacts sync

  I have a Palm Pre 2 with WebOS 2.0 and configured it with my Gmail account as the default account for the Contacts. When I add a new contact to my Contacts in Gmail, it appears on my phone but when I add a new contact on the phone it does not appear in my Contacts on Gmail. It seems that the sync happens only in one direction, that is from my Gmail Contacts on phone. Can someone please provide a solution for sync work from phone to Gmail.

  Thank you.

  just thought about it - when I added the new contact my default account is the palm profile. Even if I changed my default Gmail contact was always a palm profile contact. I added an another and this time it worked.

• New Palm used Palm Pre profile

  Hello

  I bought a used Palm Pre (Movistar, YOU) and now want to create a new Palm profile so I can use the phone in Australia (Optus, at THE).

  How to set up a new Palm profile on this phone?

  He is currently running WebOS 1.4

  Thank you

  Nick

  Regarding the hacks and things of this nature, it is something that we cannot help here.

  Since the unit locked up on screen language then we would need to restart the device. If this does not resolve the issue, then you will need to use webOS Doctor on the device. Reason for this step is there is no way at this stage of the journal of the unit to do a partial/full erase.

• profile Palm palm pre... which really backup? need info

  calendar comes into contact with notes of tasks

  Above are the actual backups I'm worried... I am told that if you lose your palm pre, which will appear in the new pre calendar and contacts, you get when the connection is... I get conflicting info on the tasks and memos...

  Anyone know really out there, and is there an info or advice you can offer, anyway...

  Any response will be appreciated...

  I back it up with link companion, with a USB to my computor to my palm... office memos and tasks on companion backup links are really not friendly enough for me...

  I would, everything simply because I think that two backups are always better than one.

• Contacting palm to see if palm pre developer mode to the guarantee

  Have an e-mail address for palm to contact them. I really don't want to pay this question and I found a chat irc for palm room, but no one is, never. I looked up and down but still nothing.

  It does not void the warranty. I have my pre in this mode as well. Basically make it so you can install beta apps that you create or if you test a developer it allows to install it and test it.

  Also if you do a partial erase on the device it removes it developer mode if this is the cause of any technical problems you may have with the device. More so, just like you got the unit out of the box.

• Palm Pre issues I'm having.

  I used facebook to add friends to my contact list on my new Palm Pre today. My father didn't is not on Facebook so I had to break his info into my phone on my contact list... not much. When I added his home address, the pre for some reason any linked my facebook account to my contact information for dads. Putting my info in my dads contacts. There is no way to erase it. He said that when I try to delete contacts that I would have to delete all Facebook contacts. ID rather not start over... (frustrated) :/

  This really needs to be fixed quickly! I read the other fourms, and many people have simular problems.

  Palm please provide a way to delete a contact that is downloaded from Facebook, or Outlook. without having to delete all my contacts and start all over again. It's really * beep * boring!

  If anyone has any advice please help

  All you have to do is to separate the 2 profiles. Click the Contact in your contacts directory. And then on info here page click on name there at the top. Then it should show both the profiles, click on one and an option is to disassociate the profile, you can also remove the profile from here or do a primary profile. I had a couple do this to me as well, according to the names of people like my brother and the father having the same names. The fact to separate their fixed.

  "Palm, please find a way to delete a contact that is uploaded on Facebook or Outlook." without having to delete all my contacts and start all over again. It's really * beep * boring! »

  As far as I know Facebook is the only one you can't remove it from. You cannot delete the one your talking together is because its connected to facebook. In this menu, as I said above, you can then remove, or break the link to the facebook no one. I agree on wanting to not have all or nothing with facebook. There are a lot of people I just don't want or need it info in my contacts.

  You can delete the others without having to start all over again.

• The Tungsten T3 for Palm Pre data migration

  Hello

  I am the owner of a Palm Tungsten T3. I have a lot of contacts, calendar, tasks and Memo data in I want to migrate my new Palm Pre. I saw Palm information on how to move the data from Palm Desktop for the pre, using the data transfer Assistant (DTA). However, it seems to work for Palm Desktop v6.2. T3 is not compatible with v6.2, being the latest sw version v4.1.4.e.

  When I launched DTA, I got an error. I tried several things and looked in the forums, but only to find tips for v6.2. In the end, I decided to upgrade to v6.2 in my Windows XP, but I skipped stage of synchronization with my camera (such as the T3 is not compatible). Then I run the DTA. This time, I got to the step when it asked me to connect my pre as a USB key. But after that, he tells me that Palm Desktop is installed, but contains no data to transfer. However, I can see my data in the desktop. My guess is that I could solve the problem if I could synchronize with a PDA compatible.

  Can someone give me a hint on how to transfer data to my pre of my T3? Is this possible at all?

  Thank you

  You will not be the Tungsten T3 or the Palm Desktop 6.22 Pre - synchronization you will use as a vehicle to move the data into your pre.  I suggest that you use the command Export of Palm Desktop 4.1.4e for export data PIM (Contacts, calendar, tasks and Memos) out as a file in comma-delimited (.csv) as a backup before installing Palm Desktop 6.22 as the data upgrade process can not be cancelled.  If you need to go back to Palm Desktop 4.x and do not have a backup, you will be out of luck.

  After you have backed up your data, I upgrade to Palm Desktop 6.22, DTA can migrate your data in the meadow and then synchronize the Pre with a Google account to access e-mail and calendar.

  To fix your data problem in the second part of your post, you can try to install free third-party utility, PalmHotSyncSetup.  This changes the Windows for Palm Desktop registry keys so that he could support the older devices like the Tungsten T3.  You can download PalmDesktopHotSyncSetup from Pimlico Software Web site.

  Hope that helps,

• Palm Pre, Bluetooth and other phones

  I will have no problem using a hands-free bluetooth, or my wi - fi.  However, I can't my Pre and my rants to talk to one another - to send the contacts from your old phone again pre.  I'm not familiar with Bluetooth profiles: PAN, PBAP, HFP/HSP, A2DP, AVRCP - I do not understand well what these all say.

  Post relates to the Palm Pre P100EWW

  To do this the Pre needs bluetooth OBEX profile. Who, at this time, he didn't. This does not mean that it will not be added however. This is not a hardware issue, but the software.

• The missing sync for Palm Pre

  Hello

  I have a Palm Pre and I am afraid I do not have my data backed up on my computer (what happens if Sprint goes out of business?  What If I change provider at some point?) so I bought The Missing Sync.  It is loaded with problems, as everyone knows... but I have a specific question and I was hoping someone might be able to help.  All my calendar data must be put on a 'My Computer' account, instead of my account 'Palm profile', in order to synchronize with the desktop computer with this software.  The 'My Computer' account always will automatically synchronize to the cloud Palm/Sprint, or in this passage and I'll have a backup of the computer?  I don't know if Palm and Sprint only synchronize the calendar in the Palm profile account data. Anyone know?

  Thank you!

  Technical support told you that? It's all on the pre and synergy. This link I posted is info own palms on the pre and Google. Sometimes I wonder about the people in the Sprint.

  Yes its up and running and my wife and everybody I think here. What part are you stuck at?

  You have set up a Google/gmail account?

  Did you go in your application email on the Meadow, and then from there to the Preferences section and accounts.

  Scroll down to add an account

  Enter your gmail address and password.

  And identify yourself.

  If I remember well just do it once and it will add the account of the application calendar and the contact application. Don't recall so check again. If its does not for others added in preferences and accounts for each application.

  Now make sure you change the default value of the Palm profile for the Google account when you add a contact. If you have not then it will add contacts to Palm profile and does not appear in Google. It is the same for the calendar.

  Let me know how you got and if its does not work what is looming

• 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.
