From henryseiden at bellsouth.net Mon Nov 1 10:14:39 2004 From: henryseiden at bellsouth.net (Henry M. Seiden) Date: Mon Nov 1 07:15:11 2004 Subject: [missing-sync-palmos-talk] Missing Sync First Sync Message-ID: My first synchronization to my Palm Cli? PEG-NX73V/U hung up PsysLaunch conduit. Does anyone have an idea what that is? I know that that particular conduit has been on the Cli? for a long time and, while it may not be used for anything, always hot sync'd before today. Missing sync stopped cold and would not continue past that item. I had to force quit the app on the MAC and soft reset the Cli? to continue (i.e. it refused to cancel- neither the MAC nor the handheld). So my concern is: 1. Will Hot Sync jam again? 2. How can I find the app that doesn't appear to match the sticky file? 3. Is there a log of what actions the Missing Sync does or errors that happen? Hot Sync has one! Why not (if no)? There's been a few updates that appear to have carried over since the old Hot Sync Manager was replaced by Missing Sync. I'm at a loss about the above but generally happy with Missing Sync otherwise. Henry -- Last week I stated this woman was the ugliest woman I had ever seen. I have since been visited by her sister and now wish to withdraw that statement.

But it's the only software I've found that will sync multiple categories with other desktops over the net and also to the Palm. I share different categories with different groups of people in both the calendar and contacts; and as far as I can tell iCal and Address Book won't do that. And yes, the 4.02 Missing Sync does work with it; but it was fiddly. I had to turn all the conduits off and sync, then sync between turning each one back on. Now it's happy. I've given up trying to sync media and voice memo. Just leave them off and use my card reader to move files.

We are testing an update that will include a new version of the Missing Sync.prc to better support the T5 and include updated iPhoto and iTunes plugins that work very well with the new Drive Mode. So, with the update you can use either the new Drive Mode or the Missing Sync.prc to mount the volume. We hope to post the 4.0.2b5 update very soon at www.markspace.com/testing! As for transferring data from one handheld to the other, the easiest thing to do is the very first time you sync the new handheld you will be asked to pick a handheld name. If you want the T3 data on the T5 choose the name currently assigned to the T3. However, you should NOT sync two handhelds to the same handheld name. So you should either enter a new name for the T5, or perform a Hard Reset on the T3 and sync it with a new handheld name.

As Ken pointed out, the issue doesn't appear to be a Missing Sync issue as it also happens with HotSync Manager. If that doesn't work, I'd recommend doing a no extension reset which is a soft reset while holding the D-pad up. It is possible that you have installed an application that is interfering with the installation process. The error message you're getting is defined as "Generic remote system error (returned when exact cause is unknown)" which really doesn't help. My guess is that the issue is with the handheld and not the desktop. You could also try turning off all other conduits to see if that changes the behavior. -- Scott Gruby Lead Engineer, Missing Sync for Palm OS Mark/Space, Inc.

OS 5.2.1 appears to have shipped on the T3. Of course, there was a ROM update to address other issues. While I don't normally recommend a hard reset of the device, it almost seems like you might try it. Before doing that, however, do a full backup to an SD card using BackupMan or Right Back Up or another backup utility (this type of backup will be faster than Missing Sync 4.0.1; 4.0.2 beta is faster than 4.0.1) so that you have 2 backups, one on your desktop and one on your SD card. Perform a hard reset on the device, sync by creating a new user (so that nothing gets restored to the device) and then try installing a small file. If you're not comfortable with a hard reset, I wouldn't recommend this. (I'm out of ideas as this issue is nothing that I've ever encountered before.)

Wow, that's interesting. Because I already had made myself a little "disabled conduits" folder and suddenly there was a second one there - plus all my conduits were moved. I was kinda shocked.. I fixed it manually. I mean, I think I was like a normal user, thinking that AddressBook/iCal would be taken care of by Missing Sync -- then finding out that I had to download it, and then THIS.

Plus it adds a few for no extra charge. Take the Memo Pad application for example. If there are 15 categories in any of the parts of Desktop (Datebook, Addressbook, Memo) then with HotSync you got an error when synchronizing but it did complete and give a last sync time that was accurate, even though there was an error and the data did transfer. Not with Missing Sync... you get the same error but the Last Sync info doesn't update (still says Never). The error log does show the problem. The only fix for the problem is to limit the total categories in all parts of the Desktop application to 15 and this is way too few! This has been a long standing problem. I am considering using iSync and iCal options on the desktop, with their differing limitations on the Palm handheld side. The lesser of two evils?? Moreover the MemoPad application has no data in it. -- Some guy hit my fender the other day, and I said unto him " Be fruitful and multiply". But not in those words . . . . .

It seems that when I installed Office 2004 using the istaller on the CD, it imported my database from Office X, and that database continued the "think" it was still Office X. So I dragged all my messages and mailboxes onto the desktop, quit Entourage and removed the datebase from the Min Identity folder. Then I restarted from scratch, and set up Entourage as if for the first time, and dragged all my mailboxes back. That took care of the "open identity" problem, but I still couldn't sync because it said the handheld database couldn't be opened. So I opened the settings for the date book and set it to sync only one category, (family), one that had no repeating events. It synced perfectly, only synced all my events as if they were all "family." I changed them in the calendar to the correct categories, made sure that my Palm and entourage had the same exact categories (and names) and changed the setting to sync all categories. The next time I synced it seemed to work just fine, and left the categories as they were. The only thing that didn't sync was the Memos, it said it couldn't open the handheld database. I'll have to work on that some more, but at least everything else is working.

Not good at all! Installed 4.0.2b5 over the previous 4.0.2b3 in OS X 10.3.5. Reviewed all settings and attempted to hotsync. Initially a dialogue box would come up asking for Keychain access permission and the progress window would pop out. Then it's just wait and wait and wait. I can see that there's a slow stream of slow but continuous HD activities (in and out), but there's no real progress in the progress bar. Eventually my Palm (T2) would abandon its communication attempt and shuts down. MS on the Mac would need a force quit to stop. On subsequent attempts, the keychain dialogue would no longer appear, but the progress bar just spins and spins.

There is really no way for us to know what other programs are using our components so we can't just shut them down. By restarting, we ensure that all applications will be using the new components. While I agree that it would be better if a restart was not necessary, unfortunately this is the only way for things to work smoothly. (The components that I'm referring to in particular are our kernel extension for mounting, our framework and CFM Shared Library needed for conduits and applications to talk to our software.) -- Scott Gruby Lead Engineer, Missing Sync for Palm OS Mark/Space, Inc.

Why isn't a simple logout/log back in enough ? This is so "Mac > OS 9" ! ;-) LOL. Missing Sync installs some kernel extensions (check /System/Library/Extensions).

Any time you start talking about kernel extensions, this sort of stuff gets nasty. You can never be sure what other programs might be affected by the old kernel extensions when you try to unload them. You could very easily crash the machine, and potentially leave it in an unbootable state. Would you rather have that, or reboot? Me, I'd choose to reboot. -- Brad Knowles, "Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety." -- Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790), reply of the Pennsylvania Assembly to the Governor, November 11, 1755 SAGE member since 1995.

The MemoPad conduit file name was changed in order to reduce confusion. The easiest way to fix this is to edit each profile, select the MemoPad conduit again and save the profile.

Seiden) Date: Wed Nov 3 08:57:11 2004 Subject: [missing-sync-palmos-talk] iSync with multiple computers Message-ID: <3346BFCB-2DB9-11D9-B044-000393B3C6A2@bellsouth.net> HI, I am researching using iSync, AddressBook, iCal in place of the Palm 4.2.1 desktop on both of MAC- a desktop and a laptop (work and less work respectively). I found an Apple Support document that makes me a bit uncomfortable and I wonder if the list csn comment? The Apple Support Doc #151053 and it states that multiple machines using iSync should _not_ be used to sync to Palm devices as they will "not transfer data" reliably!?! My portable handheld device is a Cli? NX73, made by notably a not-MAC-friendly company (Sony). It's not too unusual that they're not friendly as they compete in several different arenas- Sony is heavily wedded to M$. Here is the full text. http://www.docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=151053 Does Missing Sync change that reality? Why, or why not? I have bought the latest Missing Sync and while I understand some of the short-comings and benefits, I'm unsure if this will (ever?) fit my needs, as it doesn't now. Here are the issues of importance to me with whichever desktop, sync solution used: 1. Data integrity (not real good with HotSync now). 2. Mac based (Palm requires a Missing Sync) solution. Apple has clearly stated incompatibilities with multiple desktop solutions. Compatibility between two Mac desktops is an absolute requirement. 4. All my conduits and data backed up each time. Some conduits and databases fail with Missing Sync/iSync now. A failure occurs after syncing Fitaly keyboard (FV Setup), for example. Others have been noted. 5. In this period of transition to some new Palm OS (5,6?), and many new devices- how will OS4 compatibility be assured?

In your bug report, include (at least) the following: - Sync log - Complete list of conduits you are using and versions - OS version Unfortunately your report is too incomplete for us to determine the issue. If you submit feedback and work with support on reproducing the issue, it will get submitted to engineering to resolve. We can't fix issues if they're not reported to us, so waiting for the next beta may not help. We put out the public betas to get feedback so that we can address issues. -- Scott Gruby Lead Engineer, Missing Sync for Palm OS Mark/Space, Inc.

I have exactly the same experience, although at the very very first sync after installing b5, a dialogue box came up requesting Keychain access. But after that, it's as per your description. I've already reported this on this board and submitted a bug report. Since, I have received a response stating that they could not reproduce the problem and will need more data. It may be worthwhile doing the following on your installation also (per Scott's instruction): > We have been unable to reproduce your issue. Please do the following: > > 1.
