Palm Pre Media Sync option disappeared.

I had to get a new phone (again!) because my old one would not go off "combined" mode.

So after resinstalling my applications, I went to sync my music and found that the "Media Sync" option was missing.  My only choices are USB and Charge Only.

What the H is going?  Yes, I restarted my phone and still no change.

I tried so hard to love this phone, but now, after all the hardware, software, and design flaws, I'm looking forward to dumping and never looking Palm products again.  Have this on the past year has been one frustration after another.

Hello sqlblindman and welcome to the forums of Palm.

You can toggle the media Sync feature on your Pre/Pixi by entering in the application of information of device and then by opening the menu Preferences.  From there, you can type the element menu enable/disable Media Sync.

  • Missing Media sync option

    When you plug the Pre via a USB port, you are supposed to get 3 options: Charge Only, USB and Media Sync. I had Media Sync option, but now he's gone.

    I've been playing around with Media Monkey late last night (I was tired, so I don't remember what I did), but I don't see how that could have made me lose this option, because I had that option before I even installed MM.

    Any ideas on how to recover this option?

    Thank you in advance.

    From the Launcher, open Device Info. Open the top menu on the left ('Preferences') and click on 'enable media sync '. Alto!

  • EAS Activesync Palm Pre not syncing of calendar in Outlook items

    I just read a few messages that sound like they have the same problem I have.  I had the Palm Pre since June 6 and had absolutely no problem with EAS - NONE!  Has worked flawlessly!  However, today, I noticed that a calendar entry that I did on my pre was not appearing on Outlook (and Exchange accessed from the web).  Well well, after several soft resets, the removal and the reinstallation of my Exchange account, a hard reset and try the tip to the topic to manually set the time zone, I had no chance.  All emails, contacts are fine sync, forth - quite instantly, I might add!  And, if I add/remove/change an Outlook entry, my Pre is updated Pronto!  The only items not syncing entered calendar made from the front.  I don't know why it has become an issue all of a sudden.  I really hope someone can help!  Palm: Please help!

    Thank you

  • Palm Pre is no longer syncing with Google Calendar

    I had my pre for 4 to 5 weeks, and when I got it, I configured the calendar to sync with my Google Calendar.  Everything worked well.  At one point, he stopped synchronization.  If I add something to the calendar via Google, I do not see on my pre and if I add an event on the pre, he never appears on Google.  Of course, I tried the option sync nothing helps.  I don't know whether or not this happened around the V1.1.0 update.  Is anyone having problems syncing with Google Calendar?

    THX,

    Brett

    Hello Bartman,

    You can try remove and add the gmail account to the pre.  If this does not work, try to create a test gmail account and add it to the front.  This will tell you if your email account or the Palm Pre.

    Let us know what happens...

    Thank you

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 'Unable to connect to the server' msg on Palm Pre to the IMAP e-mail server

    I am trying to connect to a server of Courier IMAP on my Palm Pre. It happens to be a Lotus Domino 7 server, but I don't think that is relevant, unless someone can suggest a better Protocol IMAP (don't want to use POP, because I want access to records). I was able to use it very well on my Palm 750 (Win Mobile) and now for the test, on Outlook Express as a Windows client, so I know that the IMAP server does not work correctly.

    On the Meadow, when I press the "Sign In" button at the bottom of the page of manual configuration of account, I always get the message:

    Error

    Unable to connect to the server

    I am able to sync the Pre with EAS system based on Zimbra to my business and my personal Google gmail account without any problem.

    On the Meadow, in the manual configuration of the account, I entered

    E-mail type: IMAP

    nom_ordinateur.nom_domaine.com

    user name [no @domain.com]

    password

    Port: 143

    Encryption: no

    [And yet once again, I know that the values that I have entered are correct, because I just enter values in Outlook Express and it worked fine.]

    He actually let me same hit "Sign in" until I set up outgoing mail server also (which seems weird and as a minor bug - it should let me retrieve messages, even if I don't have an available SMTP server to send responses). So, I also implemented the mail out with authentication server. I don't know I have a valid for sending SMTP system, but let's assume that is not related to the error, as I just want to do my incoming mail and be able to deposit in the IMAP folders respective, at least for now. I'll worry send later.

    Initially, I left the empty root folder option. I also tried to put a "/" (single, slash, ignore the quotation marks) in there. No effect.

    (Question on semi - the Pre does support multiple connections EE without getting confused? In general (on Win Mobile anyway), you can only have 1 per device. If it was an option on the Meadow, perhaps I could empty Domino in favour of another Exchange Server, but this would be a term much more time here, I hope with my IMAP question).

    Thanks for any help,

    Colin

    It seems that you need a smtp server configuration that is valid for the step of the link set.  In the test here, if the SMTP connection is refused/incorrect login it will not create the account (verified by looking at the packet stream, newspapers of IMAP connection fine, SMTP connection refused, account refused on the Meadow).

    So now, it seems that you need a valid SMTP server in order to create an account.

  • Palm pre more (Verizon) does not connect to the Exchange Server

    I've been on the phone for 3 days (bought the Verizon Pre the day it came out) and couldn't connect to my companys mail server. I had a Palm Treo 755 for years and have always got my email to that. After days of talk with representatives of the Palm, I am told that no. Verizon Pre is able to connect to a server to exchange corp at this time. I'm quite upset hereby, since after listening to a Council of representatives of Palm, I've had a computer scientist to ensure that our server was updated, we had the correct certificates, etc. This of course took hours to complete, and the person of COMPUTING time is not cheap. So afte spend all that time and money dealing with this, I learned today by a supervisor at Palm that ANYBODY on Verizons network is able to connect to their mail corp server and that it was an issue that is discussed in.

    I searched the forums and found a lot of this Sprint service problems, but didn't find any with Verizon. Anyone else out there on Verizon and unable to connect? Or maybe the better question is, someone out there have a pre with Verizon and IS able to connect to their server Exchange (EAS)?

    Correction to my last post. After doing a reset on my phone and update of our server, I was able to connect to my email. Thank you for your comments update to SP2. Overall, I am still very upset over the phone support provided Palm. As I mentioned before, I brought to the SP2 SP1 vs option several times by phone and I said whenever it was not the question. Even my computer, have fought a little, to get this update since that he had heard the same information I did representatives of the Palm on the phone. After you have created an account on here and PDAguy pointing me to the long thread about people having a similar problem, I showed it to our it guy and he has fortunately upgraded our server to SP2.

    I'm happy to get this issue resolved, but feel still Palm mislead me along the way, probably cost me over $ 400 in IT supports, lost my time and traveling in a Verizon store to swap a perfectly good phone and I try the different options which should not be fooled. I did 3 different calls to Palm (with my COMPUTER technician who has been paid by the hour) and each call lasts about 1 to 1-1/2 hrs. Most of the current time on hold any 'research' rep my question.  Even had a representative on the phone to me lie and tell me that he was able to connect to our server (using my info) with a meadow he had with him. He told me so I had a defective phone, and I was directed to return to Verizon to switch the phone outside. After I had passed the phone out, and of course, it doesn't work, I was then told by another representative of Palm and his superior that it was a known issue and that person is with Verizon was able to connect to a server (with a pre) because of a software problem on the phone. I got a refund from Verizon to get this phone for $149, but with all my time lost, the cost of my computer and the lack of knowledge by representatives of Palm, I think I have probably the most expensive Palm Pre Plus there.

  • 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.

  • Support for CalDAV in Palm Pre

    From what I can read on the official homepage and all exams, the calendar in the Palm Pre software is able to synchronize with Google Calendar online.

    My questions are:

    * Is the synchronization takes place using CalDAV?
    * If Yes: can I subscribe to the other CalDAV Google?

    When you add calendar accounts, it gives you only the 3 options for MS exchange, Google and Facebook... and no option exists anywhere to add a URL.

  • Palm Pre calendar synchronization is no longer with Yahoo Calendar

    Aware of last week or earlier this week stopped my Palm Pre sync with my schedule of Yahoo on Sprint. I tried to force a manual synchronization, but it does not work. Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

    I did an entry on my phone earlier today, but I'll try to remove and restore the account as you suggested. However, I just checked my calendar online from Yahoo and found he did after all synchronize. I'll have to keep watching to see what happens before you post more on this.

  • Palm Pre calendar, screen saver and Conference questions

    Hello

    I am a Palm Pre (Sprint) 1.4 and the Palm Pre Plus (verizon) 1.4 user.  I use the EAS option to connect to my company groupware system.  I have two problems, I need help:

    1. on the Sprint and Verizon, location of the grille section seems to offer very limited space.  Minimum Adequetly so that when I'm on the road and I am trying to get an address or con-calls, he doesn't seem to have enough space to support location data.  In addition, there seems to be no option to scroll left or right to see the data.

    2. on the phone from Verizon, when the screen saver comes in and the screen turns off, the only option is to press the power button on the top right of the phone.  However, when the phone is flipped open, it's a physical impossibility.  I then have to return the phone closed and then press the button.  It's a question on Sprint phones and through a software upgrade they have enabled the option to press the middle button a screen saver option Michael.  The same option on the Verizon phone is necessary.

    3. I don't know if it is a function or a lack of, of the CDMA network, but it would be nice to a conference call of the United Nations and switch between private calls.

    All-in-all, I'm very happy with my phones and think that WebOS is more operationally effective phone OS on the market.

    Thank you

    1st edition. Just, I typed a few characters in my location section and had more than 100 characters without running out of space. Never came to fruition. To access you type on a line of text, hold down the option key down, and move your finger to the up, down, left, right anywhere on the screen. It will be your cursor from that direction.

    2. I have sprint, so maybe verizon is different. But by pressing any key on the keyboard while his opening turns my screen turn it back on.

    3. no idea on it.
