Treo 680 - calendar sounds and alerts

I rely heavily on my Treo 680 to manage my daily calendar and to notify me of upcoming meetings. The adjustable meeting alert/alarm in the sound preferences three or four times at intervals of 5 minutes, but the problem is that each of them only consists of three or four notes and can be easily missed. It doesn't seem to be a way to change this on the 680. On my previous Treo 650, I was able to set each sound alert for 5 or 10 seconds. Anyone know how I can fix the alarm to ring longer each time?

Thanks for the reply. I think I solved the problem. Under the sounds and alerts, I chose the tab 'Manage' that shows each of the sounds that are preloaded on the Treo and tried all those who had the largest file size, on the assumption that the large file size equals a lot of notes. And now, some of them have a lot of notes and light for 5-10 seconds (or more) I'm looking for. PROBLEM SOLVED.

Another thought. Is it possible to download an external file noise (as is done with the third-party ringtones) and use it as a calendar alert? Someone knows how to do this?

Thanmks for the tips now I hope that I won't be late for your appointment more.

  • Unlocked (Rogers) Treo 680 problem: no network after upgrade to 1.12

    Here's what I did:

    1. Bought Rogers GSM Treo 680 on Ebay and inserted my T-Mobile SIM card.
    2. Purchased and applied unlock code.
    3. Used Treo 680 on T-Mobile (USA) successfully for 7 months.  Everything worked well.
    4. Recently upgraded to the version of the firmware 1.12 with Palm download "unlocked."  (Probably a mistake... I thought since I had unlocked the phone, I use this upgrade Unlocked.)   Now the phone would not connect to T-Mobile more.
    5. Redid the upgrade to Rogers 1.12 upgrade.   Not connect to T-Mobile.
    6. I couldn't find my unlock code, so spending $25 on a new unlock code.  It is entered, reboot, still not connect to T-Mobile.

    Note: I see T-Mobile and ATT in my list of "Network Selection".  He always responds with "cannot save with network selected."

    What should I do now?

  • Treo 680 not synchronize calendar and contacts, but all the rest OK

    I bought a Treo 680 off of Ebay. It is unlocked.  Phone ATT but I use T-Mobile.  Phone works fine but I can not use the Palm organizer for the calendar or contacts.   I have the reset several times.  When I do everything works except the contacts and calendar.  When I press these buttons or you try to open these apps the Treo immediately reset and never open the app.

    Use of Palm desktop

    Version of Palm Desktop 4.2.1 Hot SYnc 5.4.0
    Version of your device?  TREO680-1, 09 - ATT

    Is this a software problem?  Have I not the right software in the computer?  Treo does not work under Mac OS 10.5?

    Also, how is it possible to sync with Entourage?  I use to send and see that others synchronize their phones to read emails.

    Thank you

    I followed your advice on another post.  Released A battery and you press the red when the black line across all the way at the end and pressed the button of the English language.

    I think I solved the problem, if it's not elegant.  I created a new user name and all the little that he was in the new calendar and on the Palm sync perfectly.  Then I copied my old user data, he has replaced in the new folder of userid.  Something came through, some did not.  What I found, it is in contacts, if I just click on the contact and put it in a category it sync next time with the Palm.  With the calendar in the parameters of conduct I said to go from Mac to your handheld, and everything came through.

    If you have any other advice, I would be happy.  Especially how to sync with Entourage since I now use it as my e-mail program.

  • 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.

  • Why not the preferences of the general calendar for "the day ends at:" only offers the possibility of 'am' and not 'pm '? And alerts for an event from 14:00 activate at the right time, but it's at 02:00.

    The "day starts at:" options correctly offer options of "midnight" through time "am" to "noon". Thus the "day ends at:" should have options starting with "midi" and moments of "pm" to "midnight", but instead, they are all time 'am '.

    And alerts for an event from 14:00 activate at the right time, but it's at 02:00. Maybe it's a consequence of the above.

  • 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.

  • Ringtones, ringtones of messages and alerts suddenly stopped working on my Pixi...

    I just upgraded to an old BB to a Palm Pixi curve. I received my new phone, September 27, 2010... two days later, after normal use (IE send SMS, call & photos) alerts stopped working completely. I've never used helmet on this phone either. I called my service provider and they sent me a new Pixi, I got three days ago. Well this afternoon, while sitting in my pocket, exactly the same thing happened as the other Pixi. (Again, I've never used helmet) I can listen to music through external speakers, I can play ringtones if I open them and play them manually... but whenever I get a call or a text will make my phone just vibrate, also my alarm will not work (sound) and neither my calendar alerts. I have all the audio settings turned 'on '. I have even system sounds turned to 'on', but that they will not play (sound when you take a photo or take a map on the screen)... no sound on my apps game either. I really like this phone, but I am so tempted to go back to my old BB curve. If someone had this problem? Is - this fixable or should I just a get a new Pixi?

    Have you checked the switch to ring on the top of the unit next to the power button? You see red showing; If so he switch in reverse if you don't see red. The unit is vibrating mode in the position, and all sound is disabled.

  • 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?

    Robb

    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.

  • Treo 680 stopped communicating!

    I got the Treo 680 for almost 2 years, & it was great!  I'm a long Palm user goes way to the visors.  However, I was informed by ATT that the Treo is 'dead' because I have more sounds - start, stop, calendar, games, etc.  I fully charged I also changed the battery - put in another, also.  ATT did a hard game, but no response.  Any help!  I really don't want to leave the family immediately!

    Sounds like it might be a common problem - do you use a headphone headphones or wired?  The tiny Microswitch inside the headphone barrel could be locked in the down position.

    You hear the sound from the headphone jack?  If so, that's the problem!

    This thread explains a few things on the subject:

  • I can't get my phone to ring, it vibrate only. Put it to vibrate when sounds and volume is on?

    I can't get my iPhone 6 it sounds only vibrates volume is up and about and there "vibrate with ring" could not find where I put a ring to shut up. Airplane mode is turned off

    Check the mute switch on the side of the iPhone. It is located just above the Volume buttons.

    Also try settings > sounds > < RINGER AND ALERTS > > move the slider to the MAX > change with buttons > Toggle Off

    This will prevent you from changing the ring volume when you use other applications. (for example YouTube, Safari)
