[missing-sync-palmos-talk] Unable to sync with iCal & Address book w/iSync

[Ken Freeman]

The iSync installer has been note to mess up file permission rights that has
caused errors trying to sync with iSync. Have you tried repairing disk
permissions?

1) Launch Disk Utility and select your drive
2) Click the First Aid tab
3) Click "Repair Disk Permissions"
