[missing-sync-palmos-talk] Backing up Voice Memo

[Mac Mike]

Janet,

I have a "Voice Memo" feature on my T2; so I assume this is similar to your
T3.  The "Voice Memo Conduit" is supplied from PalmOne and installed during
Palm Desktop and HotSync installation.  When you install Missing Sync AFTER
the Palm Desktop install, you will see the Voice Memo Conduit in the Missing
Sync lineup.

If the conduit is enabled, you will find all voice memos synced to an
application in your 'Applications/Palm/' folder titled "Voice Memo".  The
icon looks like a microphone.  I have not found any way to install the
application without also installing the Palm Desktop, though you never need
to open Palm Desktop to open the Voice Memo app.

I may have misunderstood your question.  If your question was more directed
at exactly where are the voice memo sound bites stored or backed-up, then
mine can be found in 'Documents/Palm/Users/USERNAME/Voice Memo/Sounds'.
Each recording is stored as an individual WAV file.  The DAT & BAK file I
have are not nearly large enough to contain a backup of all the voice files.
I'm guessing that it just contains info about each recordings.

Good Luck,
