[missing-sync-palmos-talk] Problem with Bluetooth Syncing

[Ken Freeman]

A few ideas...

1) Soft Reset
You may have done this already, but sometimes a soft reset does wonders. You
may want to even do a backup sync via USB and then do a hard reset.

2) Remove the pda-bluetooth-sync
Looks like you tried this, but just making sure. This has been known to
conflict.

3) Enable checkbox for "Non-Compliant handheld"
The Zire 72 should work just fine, but give this a shot.

4) Try on a different Mac or different Bluetooth dongle
