[missing-sync-palmos-talk] Lost ability to iSync on Treo 650 and Tiger

[Warren Young]

I think I have it figured out.  It was Wireless Sync that disabled  
other conduits from syncing (like iSync).  Helps to read the log on  
the hot sync side of the Treo where it actually said just that.   
Verizon/Windows does it again to Mac users.  Wireless Sync and their  
Mail program is horrible, never mind that they do not support the  
Mac.  I do remember last night accidentally launching Wireless Sync  
and seeing it do lots of things before I could cancel it.  It's mind- 
boggling.  On that note, is it possible for us Mac users to simply  
remove it using Delete Applications?  Both Wireless Sync and Mail?   
Or would that pose other problems?  I obviously use VersaMail with  
absolutely no problems.

Thanks,

Warren
